I just want to live a happy life

After Wei Shuyi drank the labor-inducing drug, she gave birth to the baby about two hours later. Unfortunately, the baby had been in her stomach for too long and died as soon as it was born.

Wei Shuyi's own condition was not very good either, she was bleeding heavily.

The doctor took her pulse and then shook his head. One could tell from his expression that Wei Shuyi was not going to survive.

Wang Ruofu didn't say anything, but just ordered people to bury the child born to Wei Shuyi properly, and then went back.

As for Wei Shuyi's funeral, it will also be handled by the servants.

Lin Xiaoniang took one last look at the room where Wei Shuyi was staying, and her clenched hands finally relaxed.

When she first knew that Wei Shuyi was pregnant with a boy, she wanted to get rid of the child. Her brother Feng was also a bastard, and as a bastard, she was afraid that the child born by Wei Shuyi would steal the master's attention and cause her two children to suffer.

But it was useless for her to think so. She had no power as the housekeeper, and the eldest lady would not allow her to do anything. She did not dare to make the eldest lady angry.

So she could only pray day by day that Wei Shuyi would have an accident during this pregnancy. Now, she didn't expect that an accident really happened, so she felt relieved.

Minglan lay in front of her mother's bed, crying bitterly. She just couldn't believe that her mother would leave her.

She was wrong, she was really wrong. If she hadn't talked back to her mother, she would have been fine. It was all her fault.

"Mother, I was wrong. I will change. Please don't leave me, okay?"

Wei Shuyi's face was pale. Although there were some mistakes, it was okay. She gave birth to a bastard, who would definitely be ignored. It was better if he died. If he died, she wouldn't have to worry about him anymore.

But Minglan was also her daughter, so she couldn't bear to let her go.

So, she gave Minglan some careful advice, telling her not to stand out and to just live a peaceful life.

Minglan nodded while crying; she remembered it all.

.......

The old lady's yard.

Old Madam Sheng looked at Sheng Hong and said, "I heard that Miss Wei was not saved?"

Sheng Hong lowered his head slightly and said, "Yes, mother, Wei Xiaoniang was unlucky, and the child she gave birth to died with her."

Old Madam Sheng sighed: "In this world, it is so difficult for women to give birth, but it is a pity. What about Minglan? Minglan, how did you arrange it?"

Sheng Hong put his hand on the hand warmer and said, "Minglan is now being looked after by Hualan. She has been ill for the past two days. When she gets better, let the lady teach her."

At this time, Mrs. Sheng finally stated her purpose: "Although Hualan is about to get married, you don't have to worry about her anymore, but you still have two children, Changbai and Rulan, and it's even more impossible for Miss Lin. So let Minglan come to me and I will take care of her."

"what do you think?"

Sheng Hong thought for a moment and said, "I'll just follow Mother's arrangements. Then it will be troublesome for Mother to take care of Minglan."

Old Madam Sheng didn't expect Sheng Hong to agree so readily. She thought Sheng Hong would let Molan come to her. If he really said so, she would definitely have to talk to him.

Now that Sheng Hong spoke like this, it would be difficult to establish her authority as an elder.

But she felt very uncomfortable holding in her anger.

She didn't like Ringo Frost, and also didn't like the two children she gave birth to.

When Lin Qinshuang came to live with her, she arranged a marriage for her. Although the man was a scholar, he was from a good family.

Who knew that Lin Qinshuang was just a person who was greedy for wealth and fame, and actually climbed into Sheng Hong's bed.

Sheng Hong is worthy of being a child of the Sheng family. He is a man who favors his concubine over his wife just like his father. However, Sheng Hong's first wife, Wang Ruofu, is not a person who keeps her composure. In order to defeat Lin Qinshuang, she caused a lot of trouble, making the Sheng family uneasy.

It's good to have unrest, as she can muddy the waters a bit, and maybe the power of housekeeper will fall into her hands.

But unexpectedly, the eldest lady seemed to have figured it out, and stopped fighting with Lin Qinshuang. Instead, she firmly grasped the power of the housekeeper in her hands, and forcefully suppressed Lin Qinshuang. Until now, the Sheng family is managed by the eldest lady, and there has not been any problem at all.

This made her very unwilling. Now that the Sheng family only recognized Wang Ruofu, she, the eldest elder in the Sheng family, could only be trapped in this small courtyard, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures. She would definitely be ignored in the future. How could she accept this?

She wanted to find a way to change this situation, so she thought of raising a child, and Minglan was the most suitable one.

But Minglan still has her mother, which is a flaw.

She wanted Minglan to belong to her completely, so that Minglan would only have herself to rely on in the future.

If Minglan has a good future under her education, as her grandmother, no one in the Sheng family will ignore her as long as Minglan is still there.

I thought she would find a way to get rid of Wei Xiaoniang, but I didn't expect that Wei Xiaoniang was a fool and even wanted to die.

Seeing that she had been taking supplements and her belly was getting bigger day by day, she knew what this Wei Xiaoniang was planning.

She was afraid that something unexpected would happen, and that Wei Xiaoniang was lucky enough to survive, so she gave Wei Xiaoniang some extra things. Now Wei Xiaoniang's death was within her expectations, and it was just right that she could raise Minglan.

Not long after Wei Shuyi died, her sister came to the Sheng family.

After arriving at the Sheng family, he first visited Minglan and then came to Wang Ruofu's yard.

"Please sit down. Madam Liu will serve tea to Madam Wei."

Madam Wei had a stern face and stopped Madam Liu: "My sister just passed away, and I am not in the mood to drink tea. I came to see Madam to ask about the situation. How did my sister die?"

Wang Ruofu drank a few sips of tea slowly. Under Madam Wei's increasingly impatient gaze, she spoke calmly, "Mrs. Wei died of dystocia. The doctor said that the baby in her belly was too big and difficult to deliver. After finally giving birth, Madam Wei had a heavy hemorrhage and died just like that."

"It's just a pity for the child she gave birth to. He died with his mother before he even saw the world. It's really a pity."

Madam Wei's eyes were full of suspicion, and she didn't believe a word Wang Ruofu said.

"Madam, please don't joke with me. Although I haven't seen my sister for a long time, I know her situation in the Sheng family. My sister is not liked by the master of the Sheng family. I can imagine that her life in the Sheng family must be average."

"This baby was born with great difficulty, so she must have taken a lot of supplements. How could my sister afford them? There must be something fishy going on."

Wang Ruofu said, "So what you mean is that Wei Xiaoniang died because of the Sheng family's doing."

"Mrs. Wei is just a concubine, and an unfavored one at that. How could you possibly be so mean to her? Sister Wei, you are overthinking."
