Chapter 1135 Sheng Hong is aggrieved because he refuses to give face.
Just when the atmosphere in the hall was stagnant, two guards walked in and stood respectfully behind Hua Lan.
"Madam, it's been solved."
Hua Lan nodded slightly, then turned his eyes to Mo Lan, who was afraid to cry, and Mo Lan screamed in fright.
"Sister, please forgive me. I didn't do it on purpose. It was those two bitches who instigated it. They were the ones who beat Stepbrother and Sister Fu."
Mo Lan cried and begged for mercy, but seeing Hua Lan's expressionless face, she could only ask Sheng Hong for help again.
"Daddy, save me, save Mo'er, I didn't mean to do it, daddy, save Mo'er."
Lin Sushuang also cried: "Master, Hong Lang, please save Mo'er. Mo'er has realized her mistake. Miss, please spare Mo'er. Mo'er is your biological sister."
Sheng Hong's face trembled a few times, and just when he was about to open his mouth, he heard Hua Lan say: "Father, do you want to plead for her?"
Sheng Hong suppressed the anger in his heart and whispered: "Hua'er, if you beat those two bastards to death, just beat them to death. But Mo'er is your sister. Just because of this matter, there is really no need to make it so big."
Zhen Zhan, it won’t sound good if this is spread out.”
After saying that, he also knew that he had made Hua Lan unhappy today, so he pushed Wang Ruofu next to him.
"Madam, please advise Hua'er. Changbai is getting married soon. It's unlucky to fight and kill. It will be ugly if word spreads. Anyway, the anger is out. Otherwise, forget it."
"Oh ah?"
Wang Ruofu woke up from a dream and did not hear what Sheng Hong said at all. She was still immersed in the decisive momentum of her daughter's killing just now.
Although she usually shouts to kill this, kill that, in fact she is the king of strong words. If she really wants to kill, she really doesn't have the courage.
She wanted to use what happened today to punish Lin Sushuang and her daughter, but she really didn't think about killing them. At most, they would just sell them.
But her eldest daughter was lucky. Not only did she quarrel with her father, but she also had Mo Lan's two maids killed. This ruthlessness really frightened her.
Sheng Hong said it again angrily, emphasizing: "Please beg Hua'er for mercy."
But Wang Ruofu yelled: "This little bitch hurt my grandson and Sister Fu, and wants me to plead for her. It's a beautiful idea. It has nothing to do with me. I'm going to coax my stepbrother."
, you figure it out yourself."
For a rare moment of wisdom, Wang Ruofu walked directly into the back room regardless of Sheng Hong's expression.
Sheng Hong looked shocked. Is this still his wife? How could he not watch such a big excitement and opportunity for revenge?
Hua Lan said: "Father, you are right, Mo Lan is my sister. In this case, she will be punished by her father. I believe that my father will satisfy his daughter, right?"
Sheng Hong's face was livid, this was trying to set him up. He had no doubt that if he handled it lightly, his eldest daughter would never give him face.
Being forced by his daughter, he felt very aggrieved and wanted to get angry, but thinking of his eldest daughter's cruelty just now, most of the anger in his heart disappeared in an instant.
Angry and angry, annoyed and annoyed, it really made him fall out. He really didn't have the courage.
With no choice, he could only glare at Mo Lan hatefully. Even though he loved Mo Lan, he also knew what happened today. If Mo Lan hadn't been such a mean-mouthed person, there would not have been such a situation.
Besides, Mo Lan cannot escape responsibility for step brother and sister Fu being injured.
"Dongrong, go get the board."
Dong Rong quickly took out the thug's board. Sheng Hong took the board and shouted to Mo Lan on the ground: "Mo'er, if you make a mistake, you will be punished. Stretch out your hand."
"Daddy." Mo Lan whined pitifully.
"Stretch out."
Sheng Hong suddenly shouted loudly, and Mo Lan trembled with fright, and stretched out her hand with a look of sadness on her face.
Sheng Hong raised his hand and was about to lower it, but Hualan suddenly interrupted him.
"Father, how can you do this in person? Let your daughter do it for you."
After saying that, without giving Sheng Hong a chance to refute, he ordered the guard behind him: "Xiao Wu, you go."
Xiao Wu was the youngest and most practical of the four guards. When he heard the order, he immediately stood up and walked towards Sheng Hong, ready to take the board from Sheng Hong's hand.
Sheng Hong, Lin Sushuang and Mo Lan were all shocked. Looking at Xiao Wu's posture, if he really let him take action, Mo Lan's hand would probably be broken in a few blows.
"Dad." "Honglang."
Sheng Hong's face was full of anger: "Hua'er, what are you doing?"
"Didn't my father just say that my daughter is not filial? Now my daughter is being filial and can't make her father tired, so I'd better leave this kind of rough work to Xiao Wu."
Sheng Hong looked at Xiao Wu who was standing in front of him, staring at him with burning eyes. His face turned from green to purple, which was extremely ugly.
"Hua'er, do you insist on taking your sister's life? Why have you become so vicious now? As the eldest lady of the Marquis Palace, don't you have any tolerance for others?"
Hua Lan replied very calmly: "Father actually said that I was vicious. Then Mo Lan and her maid beat my stepbrother and sister Fu. Why didn't father say that they were vicious because they could cry, act coquettishly, and pretend to be weak?
, and I don’t listen to my father’s words and treat them with care, so I am cruel and they are not cruel?”
"Is this what father means?"
Sheng Hong was choked badly. Today he discovered that he had never really understood his eldest daughter. She was so eloquent and decisive in killing. Was she really his kind and simple daughter?
Seeing Sheng Hong being held hostage by Hua Lan, Lin Sushuang rolled her eyes and realized her plan.
Lin Sushuang suddenly crawled to Hualan's feet on the ground, grabbed Hualan's brocade clothes, and begged loudly.
"Big girl, please spare Mo'er. Mo'er is your biological sister. If you want to beat or kill me, come at me. I know that in the eyes of the big girl, I am just a cheap life, but I am willing to use this cheap life.
I will repay stepbrother and his friends with their lives for their injuries. The eldest lady showed mercy and beat me to death and spared Mo'er."
"release."
Hualan was not confused by Lin Sushuang's pitiful appearance at all, and tried hard to pull her clothes away, but Lin Sushuang held on tightly and refused to let go, making it impossible for her to get rid of her.
"Let go."
"Girl, you can beat me or kill me. As long as you spare Mo'er, you can do whatever you want to me..."
Seeing that he couldn't pull her away, Hua Lan didn't get used to it. He winked at the guards behind him. Immediately, the three guards didn't care who Lin Sushuang was. They went up and opened her fingers one by one and held her.
, don’t let her catch Hua Lan again.
"What are you doing? What are you doing? This is the Sheng Mansion, not the Zhongjing Marquis Mansion, and this is not a place for you to run wild. Let me go. Let me go."
Sheng Hong couldn't hold it in any longer and yelled angrily, pointing at the three guards and scolding him loudly. But no matter how hoarse he scolded and shouted, they didn't bother him at all. They just held Lin Sushuang hard and waited for Hua Shuang.
Lan's order.
They are Zhou Chen's people, and Zhou Chen's order to them is to protect the eldest lady. Unless Hua Lan speaks, they will not listen to anyone at all.
Sheng Hong was furious and shouted at Wei Ruixuan's maid: "What are you looking at? Dongrong, call someone and get them all."
The ladies and maids of Wei Ruixuan looked at each other, but did not move. Dongrong, as Sheng Hong's confidant, obeyed the order and shouted for someone to come, but he himself did not dare to approach.
He is not stupid. The guards around the eldest girl are not simple at first glance, they are full of murderous intent.
"Come on, come on."
A few people came. Sheng Hong pointed at the three guards escorting Lin Sushuang and shouted: "Take them down."
"Let's see who dares."
Hua Lanjiao shouted, and the servants who were about to take action suddenly became scared. They were from the Sheng Mansion, and some of them had signed death contracts.
But Hualan is not only the eldest daughter of the Sheng Mansion, but also the eldest wife of the Marquis of the Zhongjing Marquis Mansion. Regardless of her status, they are not the ones they dare to take action or violate.
Sheng Hong shouted angrily: "I asked you to do it, are you all deaf? You..."
"Father."
Hua Lan stopped Sheng Hong and said, "Are you going to fight your own daughter because of this concubine?"
In an era like this, concubines had no status at all. They were better than slaves, but like servants, they sold themselves to the master's family, so they had no human rights at all.
The status of a concubine is far inferior to that of a legitimate son or daughter. That is to say, Sheng Hong protected Lin Sushuang so well that she felt that she could suppress the eldest lady, which also made Mo Lan, the concubine, also feel that she could suppress the eldest lady.
I thought I could be compared to my legitimate daughter.
Look at what Kang Jiakang's aunt did. She had the final say over the concubine's daughter and could send it wherever she wanted.
In someone else's house, a concubine like Mo Lan who dared to argue and make noise with her legitimate daughter would not have a good ending unless she was beaten to death.
Sheng Hong roared angrily: "Are you trying to rebel? I am your father, she is your father's concubine, and she is also your elder. Are you going to be treasonous?"
Hua Lan's expression also became ugly, and she said in a deep voice: "I am the eldest daughter of the Sheng family and the wife of the Marquis of the Zhongjing Marquis Mansion. My father actually said that one of her concubines is my elder. When did a concubine have such a relationship?
Now that we have achieved status, is this the rule of our Sheng family? Can a concubine also be the elder of a legitimate son or daughter?"
"You, you..., I'll beat you to death, you rebellious girl."
Sheng Hong was so angry that he lost his mind. He rushed to Hua Lan and raised his hand to hit her. Hua Lan stared at her with amusement.
Just as Sheng Hong's slap was about to fall on Hua Lan's face, a loud shout suddenly came.
"Father-in-law."
Sheng Hong's movements froze for an instant, and his expression changed. He quickly retracted his hand and looked outside with a bad expression.
Zhou Chen, wearing a purple official robe, walked in slowly.
Looking across the hall, Zhou Chen knew Hua Lan's breath was relatively stable.
"Father-in-law."
Sheng Hong said with some embarrassment: "Shu Yuan, why are you here?"
Zhou Chen's face remained unchanged and he said calmly: "I heard that Stepbrother and Sister Fu were bullied. As a father and uncle, why don't I come over to see what's going on?"
Sheng Hong quickly said: "Shu Yuan, it's not that exaggerated. Stepbrother is my grandson. No one in the Sheng family dares to bully him. It's just a fight among children. The same goes for Hua'er. You're so busy, why do you want to bully him?"
You called me over."
He thought that Zhou Chen was called by Hualan to support him, which made him even more uncomfortable. It was enough for his daughter to come to the house to show off his power, but now his son-in-law also came to show off his power. Would he still take him as his father and father-in-law seriously?
But this is what he thinks in his heart. On the surface, he dare not show it. He can't control even his daughter. This son-in-law is more powerful than his daughter. He was killed on the battlefield. How dare he provoke him? If he really gets angry, he won't give it.
As a father-in-law, he will be even more embarrassed when the time comes.
Zhou Chen showed a puzzled look on his face: "A fight between children? Father-in-law, please excuse my doubts, are there any young masters and girls in the Sheng Mansion who are the same size as Step-Brother and Sister Fu?"
Sheng Hong was stunned for a moment. How could there be such a junior in the Sheng family? He was just making excuses, but he didn't expect Zhou Chen to be so serious.
"Shu Yuan, this is Mo'er. She is your sister. She is a few years older than Stepbrother and the others. They are all children. It is normal to fight and fight. It is not a big deal."
"Oh, so that's it."
Zhou Chen nodded in relief, then turned to Hua Lan and said, "Madam, did you hear what my father-in-law said? It's just a fight between children. It's no big deal, and you are the same. You have to make such a fuss.
Big, it would be bad to spread the word."
Upon hearing Zhou Chen's words, everyone in the hall was stunned. Sheng Hong suddenly showed joy. Look, this son-in-law is so sensible and knowledgeable, much better than his daughter.
Lin Sushuang, who pretended to be pitiful and fragile, also had a visibly relaxed expression. Since Zhou Chen had said so, it must be okay.
The client, Mo Lan, was even more relieved. It was a good thing for her to not be beaten. However, she did not feel grateful to Zhou Chen at all. Instead, she kept this humiliation deeply in her heart. If there is a chance in the future,
, must be returned.
Sheng Hong said with a smile: "That's right, Shuyuan, it has to be you, what do women know?"
But he didn't notice that Hua Lan's expression never changed. Instead, when he was talking, he walked up to Mo Lan and slapped Mo Lan directly on the face who had just sat up.
"Snapped!"
This slap not only knocked Mo Lan to the ground, but also stunned everyone in the hall. The smile on Sheng Hong's face stopped abruptly.
But Hua Lan didn't stop. Instead, she asked Xing'er to pull Mo Lan up again, then changed her hand and slapped Mo Lan on the other side of the face.
"Snapped!"
Another slap and Mo Lan fell to the ground again.
Mo Lan covered her face and let out a painful cry. It could be clearly seen that her face had turned red, and blood was spilling from the corners of her mouth. It was obvious that Hua Lan had used force in these two slaps.
"Mo'er."
Lin Sushuang let out a shrill scream and struggled desperately to get over, but how could she break away from Hualan's guard's hand? She cried so hard that she had a lot of snot and tears. In the end, seeing that it was useless, she rolled her eyes and her body softened.
.
It's a pity that the guard is not Sheng Hong, and he has no sympathy for her. Even if she 'faints', he still grabs her hand and controls her.
The two slaps stunned Sheng Hong. He pointed at Hua Lan with trembling hands.
"you you you……"
"Father-in-law."
Before Sheng Hong could get angry, Zhou Chen spoke up in time, and then said with a smile: "Father-in-law, don't worry, it's just a fight between children, it's not a big deal, don't be angry."
"Fighting?" Sheng Hong's mouth trembled.
Zhou Chen asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Isn't it true? Mo Lan is a generation older than Step Brother and Fu Jie'er. They are just kids fighting each other. Hua Lan is only a few years older than Mo Lan.
The fight between them is probably what my father-in-law calls the fight between children."
Sheng Hong was trembling with anger: "You, me, you, how could you do this? We are all a family, what on earth do you want?"
Zhou Chen still maintained a smile: "Father-in-law, don't be angry. It's normal for children to fight. Madam, you do it too. There's a fight between sisters. Why did you hit him so hard? Hit him on the face with your hand.
It hurts a lot, let me blow it for you."
As he said this, he took Hua Lan's hand and breathed softly in front of everyone.
Lin Sushuang woke up in time and let out a desperate cry: "Master, Master, you have to make the decision for us. Is this the Sheng Mansion or the Hou Mansion? Sister, uncle, if you want to fight, fight
Let me, don’t hit my Mo’er.”
"My lord, if you want to beat me, beat me. I will take the punishment for Mo'er. Mo'er is still young and not married yet. If you continue to beat me like this, she will die, my lord."
Hua Lan said coldly: "You should have been beaten in the first place, but Mo Lan has become like this, and you, the little girl, have nothing to do with it."
"shut up."
Sheng Hong slapped his legs with both hands angrily, and his body jumped up.
"Come here, drag Mrs. Lin out and beat her with twenty big sticks. Take Mo Lan to the ancestral hall and make her kneel down. She is not allowed to come out without my permission."
After saying that, he shouted at Hua Lan and Zhou Chen: "That's enough. Is this enough of what I've done?"
Hua Lan felt uncomfortable and disappointed when she saw Sheng Hong's appearance. Originally, this matter was not complicated. As long as Sheng Hong took the lead and punished Mo Lan fairly and justly, she would have no reason to be angry anymore, and there would be no
What happened later.
But Sheng Hong always thinks about making big things into small things. When Lin Sushuang and Mo Lan cry, he becomes soft-hearted and thinks of giving her a small punishment instead of asking her to be kind.
But last time she was scolded by Sheng Hong because Mo Lan deliberately framed Ru Lan and Ming Lan. How could she not let it go this time?
"My lord, Hong Lang."
"Daddy."
Sheng Hong's facial muscles twitched, and he forced himself to shout: "Pull it down, pull it down, are you deaf?"
Dongrong immediately ordered the female servants and mothers to drag Lin Sushuang and Mo Lan down, completely ignoring their cries.
Sheng Hong took a few deep breaths and said to Zhou Chen and Hua Lan with a gloomy face: "I have things to deal with at home today, so I won't leave the Marquis and his wife to eat."
Hua Lan's expression remained unchanged and she said calmly: "Then my daughter will not disturb her father in handling housework."
Then she walked into the back room, and Sheng Hong ignored Zhou Chen and went straight to the chair to sit down, still breathing heavily.
Zhou Chen didn't care either, he wasn't afraid of offending Sheng Hong, because Sheng Hong, at best, was too concerned about face, at worst, he was a coward.
So it doesn't matter whether he offends Sheng Hong, as long as he can bring benefits to the Sheng family, Sheng Hong will not really fall out.
