Sheng Weiqiao went back to Zhuying Mini Villa with a flushed face. She felt grateful that no one appeared in her way to see her nuances, and hastened to warn Lvqu and Lvjin never to let out the thing.The two maids logically nodded, “We’ve seen nothing and heard nothing today!”“He’s fortunate!” Sheng Weiqiao relieved herself. When recalling the scene that she ran into today, though she felt bashful and annoyed, she had no courage to go trouble Sheng Shuihe again, so she simply cursed in her mind, “Next time when I catch you, you’ll see!”At that thought, she lowered her head, caught the kylin jade pendant and couldn’t help crumpling her brows. She considered in heart, “The jade is not a common one. I have to take it to my aunt!”After a while, At Xuanyu’s mansion, Madam Feng frowned, studying the kylin jade pendant, and said, “It belongs to the son of a mistress? Are you sure?”“I saw him put it by his hand myself. Ho

We would leave aside the bustle and stir in Sheng’s Mansion tonight first. The early next morning, all the people ranking below Old Madam Ming, including Sheng Lanxin who came back for a visit with her whole family, had dressed up and went outside of the gate in order to receive Senior Master and Young Lord Xu.Senior Master Sheng had got married twice, and he had three sons and two daughters in total. Among them, the oldest son Sheng Lanci’s birth mother was Madam Ai, his first wife. When giving birth, she suffered from dystocia, but Senior Master had happened to be absent, so the midwife had followed Madam Ai’s orders and had sacrificed the mother to save the son. Because of this, Sheng Lanci was born but Madam Ai died, which was why Old Senior thought he owed Madam Ai a lot and he had been partial to the eldest branch all the time.Fortunately, his second wife Old Madam Ming wasn’t a narrow-minded person. Even if she had given birth to two sons and two d

When Sheng Weiqiao and her cousin arrived, Sheng Shuihe and Xu Baomo were watching the servant packing up the chess and getting ready to leave.Sheng Shuihe and Xu Baomo were shocked when they saw Sheng Weiqiao making a beeline for them angrily.“Sh*t, sister will find out I lied to her!” Luckily, Sheng Shuihe had a quick reaction, and he quickly saluted to Xu Baomo, saying regretfully, “Brother Xu, there is something perhaps you don’t know. Two days ago, I beat a playboy, who said something nasty to my sister and her mother on the street. After that, my sister has been going on about this for many days! This time, she would not let it go when she saw me. So, later, if my sister said anything rude, hope brother could forgive her!”After hearing what he said, Xu Baomo quickly replied, “Our families have been old friends for two generations, so there is no need to be so overcautious! Besides, it is actually quite enviable that sister cares about

Sheng Weiqiao was completely unaware that Xu Baomo had come for her, and she comforted Shen Jiuniang, “Anyway, Brother Xu will stay for a few days. You have mentioned that you want to study painting from my mother. After grandfather’s birthday, you can live with us for some days instead of going with my aunt. Maybe, there will be a turn.”“He must think me tiresome now. Will he tell my grandfather what happened between us?” Shen Jiuniang said with enthusiasm and worries, “If so, grandfather will not allow me to stay here!”In addition to the partiality for the eldest branch, Senior Master Sheng treated juniors including his sons and daughters in a normal manner, without excoriating or spoiling.As his granddaughter, Shen Jiuniang visited the Sheng Family only on some special occasions such as some festivals. There were fewer chances for her to contact with her grandfather. As a result, she felt scared rather than close when facing him.

The Senior Master Sheng thumped on the table and roared, “He’s supposed to take the consequences. If he can’t handle it, his whole branch will be thrown out!!!”After that, he was about to leave with a livid face. When passing by Sheng Lansi, he couldn’t help kicking him to the ground, and he cursed, “Because your first sister-in-law helped you out, I’ll spare you today! If you do that one more time, I won’t say anything to you and will drive your branch out of the family directly. We’ll see without your brother’s support to your branch, what else can you take to fend for a mistress!”Then he left in anger.At the place of honor, Old Madam Ming stayed still with a pale face. How could she ignore that she was the real target of Senior Master Sheng’s words?“Mother, I just came back and there are still things left in the yard waiting to be arranged. If you don’t mind, may I?” Having witnessed the scene, Madam Feng didn’t intend to st
