Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

Matsumaru shuddered, knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "My second brother knew that Zhu Manniang was a nuisance, and was afraid that if he let her go out like that, she would find opportunities to do evil, so he asked me to secretly watch her and report to me immediately if she dared to say anything insulting to the Sheng family again. But as soon as I followed her out of the back door of our house, I saw Madam Zhou intercepting her, buying her food and clothes, and taking her to a hotel. Later, I saw my third brother go in, and before I came back to report, the master had already arrived with his men."

After a few words, Madam Zhou was also brought out.

Sheng Hong stared at Madam Zhou standing beside him with a grim look in his eyes and asked, "Why did you go to stop that evil woman? And you fed her, clothed her, and took her to the inn?"

Madam Zhou's legs went limp and she fell to her knees, burying her head in her arms, not daring to say a word.

The eldest lady sneered: "Why? It's nothing more than that the third brother saw that Zhu was beautiful, and asked Madam Zhou to take her in for him so that he can enjoy her himself."

Sheng Hong seemed to want to stare through the back of Zhou Niangzi's head and asked, "Is that so?"

Madam Zhou couldn't think of anything to say for a moment and continued to tremble on the ground.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Sheng Hong thought she agreed and cursed, "You ignorant bitch! You have corrupted my child! Someone, drag her away and beat her up!"

Only then did Madam Zhou yell, "Mrs. Lin, save me! Madam Lin, save me!"

Lin Qinshuang's mind was in a mess. She was still wondering why it was Changfeng and not Changbai. When she saw Sheng Hong was about to hit Zhou Niangzi, she could only keep shouting "Master, please have mercy."

The master was very angry at the time and refused to show favor to anyone. Madam Zhou was dragged to the yard in front of the main hall and beaten by Dongrong.

Sheng Hong picked up the family stick and started to beat Chang Feng again, cursing as he beat him: "I told you to be greedy! I told you to be greedy! You couldn't get a girl from a good family, but you chose to sleep with that thief! What kind of person is that? She's a street singer! You have no shame! No shame! No shame!"

He called Chang Feng shameless several times in a row, and the strength in his hands became stronger and stronger, beating Chang Feng to a bloody mess.

Lin Qinshuang cried and threw herself on Changfeng, taking several beatings for him. Molan also knelt beside her and begged for mercy.

Sheng Hong was tired of beating Chang Feng, so he threw down the family rules and ordered people to tie Chang Feng up and take him to the ancestral hall.

At this moment, the mistress had figured out why the master suddenly called her to the front hall and why Lin Qinshuang looked so smug when she first arrived. She suddenly yelled at Lin Qinshuang, "So you were waiting for me here? You thought it was my son Changbai who slept with that bitch, so you urged the master to get him, but you didn't expect it was your own son! Lin Qinshuang, you have such a vicious heart! Are you thinking of alienating my brother Bai and his father so that your son can inherit the family business?"

The frank words exposed Lin Qinshuang's thoughts to the public.

Everyone around gasped.

Sheng Hong also gritted his teeth and looked at Lin Qinshuang. She knelt down to Sheng Hong's feet, pulled his sleeve, and begged bitterly: "Master, Master, please believe me, it's really not like this. I am wholeheartedly doing this for you, for the Sheng family, otherwise... otherwise..."

At this time, Changbai came in from outside with Han Niu, holding a basket in his hand. Seeing the commotion in the main hall, he bowed to Sheng Hong and his wife and wanted to slip away.

Sheng Hong called him and asked unhappily, "Where have you been? Why did you come back just now?"

Changbai took out a few oil paper bags from the basket and said, "My son went to Daxiangguo Temple to pick out some new ink. I heard that this ink is made from burning tung oil, and it is more shiny and darker than the pine soot ink we usually use at home. Didn't Zhuang Xuejiu always say that the handwriting of my third brother and sixth sister is not good? Maybe if they change this ink, they will be able to write well."

His eyes were clear and his tone was sonorous. All his words were about reading and calligraphy. His words showed his concern for his brothers and sisters. Sheng Hong's brows relaxed a little and he said, "Your intention is good, but this ink is too shiny. It's fine for painting, but pine smoke ink is better for writing."

Changbai bowed and said, "My son will learn from you."

Sheng Hong continued to ask: "Besides Daxiangguo Temple, where else did you go today?"

Changbai shook his head: "No, I just wandered around in Daxiangguo Temple."

Sheng Hong: "Who did you take with you?"

Changbai: "I only brought Hanniu."

Sheng Hong: "Didn't you bring anyone else?"

Changbai: "No, I just went to pick up some ink and paper. I don't need many people."

Sheng Hong: "Why are you still selling paper?"

Changbai: "I bought this specially for Xiaoliu. It's scrap paper she uses for calligraphy practice." He laughed.

Sheng Hong thought of the crooked handwriting of Liu Yatou and chuckled. Only then did his expression finally relax.

The lady stepped forward and touched Changbai's hand, saying, "It's hard for my son. I care about my brothers and sisters..."

She wanted to continue saying, "Unlike some people who only think about quarreling with each other," but when she looked up and saw Liu's mother winking at her, she shut up.

Changbai held the eldest lady's hand and said, "Mencius said that the way of Yao and Shun was filial piety and brotherhood. My father and mother have worked very hard to manage the household affairs. It is not difficult for a son to share the worries of his parents and take care of their siblings."

After hearing this, Sheng Hong felt much more comfortable.

Changbai saw Lin Qinshuang kneeling on the ground and sobbing. He didn't want to pay attention to her, but he saw Songwan, who he had sent out to keep an eye on her, standing nearby. He felt strange and asked, "Father, mother, what happened?"

Sheng Hong didn't want to talk, so the lady pointed at Song Wan and asked him to tell her story again. Chang Bai then knew the whole story and bowed, "Father, mother, I did send Song Wan to keep an eye on that Zhu. That kind of woman is cunning, and in my opinion, we should report her to the police and have her arrested."

Sheng Hong waved his hands: "No, things have come to this point. If I report it to the police, everyone will know about it. They have no shame, but I still have some!"

Changbai expected Sheng Hong to say this, so he stopped arguing and quietly retreated behind the lady.

The lady frowned: "But even so, if that Zhu spreads this everywhere, wouldn't she ruin the reputation of my children?"

Sheng Hong sighed, "Chang Feng is a man. If people laugh at this kind of thing twice, they will forget it. If they really report it to the government, the evidence will be solid and it will bring shame to their hometown. Zhu Manniang is just greedy for money. I will ask someone to send her some banknotes and scare her so that she will shut up."

Madam Liu interrupted at the right time: "I had already scared her when I escorted her out, but she was stopped by Madam Zhou just after she left the house. It's really one thing after another."

This one sentence brought the war back to Madam Zhou.

Sheng Hong pointed at Madam Zhou in the yard and yelled, "Yes, if it weren't for you, so many things would have happened? You useless bitch who misleads your master, why did you go to stop Zhu Manniang? You went when Chang Feng asked you to go? Do you want to change your career and become a broker in the future? Or do you want to be a proper mother in a brothel?"

Madam Zhou was breathing weakly and trembling, and she tried hard to look up at Lin Qinshuang.

Lin Qinshuang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly shouted, "It was I who asked her to stop it!"
