I just want to live a happy life

"Maybe I'm overthinking it. I came to the Sheng Mansion today to bury my sister and to take Minglan away with me. Although she won't live a good life, I can still guarantee that nothing will happen to her."

These words were obviously a threat to her. As soon as she took Minglan away, bad things would happen to the Sheng family.

Wang Ruofu was not threatened by her: "If you want to take Minglan away, then take her away. But you have to change Minglan's name. She will no longer have the surname Sheng, but yours. Madam Wei, you have to think about it. If you take Minglan away, she will have nothing to do with our Sheng family."

"From now on, she will live with you and get married. Our Sheng Mansion will not interfere. You will take care of everything."

"Aren't you worried that she will hate you? Although she is just a concubine in the Sheng family, she will not lack for life and marriage. Can you afford it?"

Madam Wei looked a little unhappy. She actually had no intention of taking Minglan away. She said this just to put pressure on Madam Wang and ask her to investigate why her sister died.

If Minglan followed her, what good future would she have? Minglan was her sister's only blood, and she didn't want to delay her.

Madam Wei said quickly, "I am just concerned about Minglan. I don't mean what you said. Minglan will still need your care in the future."

Wang Ruofu didn't buy it: "No matter if that's what you mean, if you really want to take Minglan away, I will definitely not stop you."

As she spoke, Wang Ruofu suddenly remembered something.

"You probably don't know that something happened in Wei Xiaoniang's courtyard some time ago. The maidservant around her stole all her things and sold them for money."

"Mrs. Wei said that she also sold some of her things and exchanged them for some silver to give to you. She didn't have much stuff to begin with, some of it was stolen, some was given voluntarily, and she had even less to use. It was only after Minglan talked about this that such a thing didn't happen."

"I think Miss Wei feels that she owes the baby in her belly, so she eats more supplements. No one expected that she would encounter such an accident."

"Of course, if you don't believe me, just ask Minglan. Minglan would never lie to you."

These words made Madam Wei lower her head. She really didn't expect that her sister's accident was related to her.

After that, Madam Wei didn't say anything else. She just went back to see Minglan, and then watched her sister being buried, and then went back dejectedly.

Of course, she always had doubts in her heart. She was half-believing and half-doubting what Wang Ruofu said. There must be something she didn't know, but the timing was not right now. She should look for an opportunity later.

The matter of Wei Xiaoniang was settled, and Minglan's health had improved, but the death of her mother was too much of a blow to her, and she still hadn't reacted to it, and she had become much quieter.

Wang Ruofu and Sheng Hong took the children to the Wang family, visited the old lady, and then prepared to set off for Bian Jing.

When they arrived at the dock and were about to board the boat, Wang Ruofu suddenly saw Gu Tingye standing aside and talking to Nanny Chang.

This time, Minglan and Gu Tingye didn’t know each other at all, and no one knew whether they would have the fate to become husband and wife in the future. But Wang Ruofu thought that it was probably impossible, as a lot had changed this time.

But, who knows, anything is possible.

Her brother Bo didn't have any brotherly relationship with Gu Tingye.

After getting on the boat, it started to move. After staying in the boat for a while, Wang Ruofu sat outside, looking at the scenery in the distance and the rippling water. There was a breeze blowing from time to time, which was quite comfortable.

There are many ships traveling along the way, some are out for sightseeing, some are delivering goods, and the appearance of the ships is also rich and colorful, and it looks very lively. This is what a stable period should look like.

From the appearance of the people, it can be seen that the Song Dynasty is now getting better and better.

Yes, the current crown prince of the Song Dynasty is very capable. With him and so many famous ministers and capable generals, the Song Dynasty will inevitably change for the better.

The sky darkened. Seeing that the lady still showed no signs of returning, Madam Liu could not help but say, "Madam, let's go in. It's late at night and the dew is heavy. It would be bad if you catch a cold."

Wang Ruofu looked at the sky full of stars and really didn't want to go in. It was too stuffy inside and it was better to be outside where it was bright and spacious.

"Mother Liu, I'll be in later. Go get my cloak."

Mother Liu did not try to persuade her any further. It was obvious that the lady was in a very good mood and she would definitely not go to rest now.

After a while, Mother Liu came over, not only bringing a cloak, but also a hand warmer.

Wang Ruofu was wearing a warm cloak and curled up in a chair. On the small table next to her were hot milk tea, hawthorn cakes, and pearl rolls.

In such an environment, eating a few bites from time to time has a unique flavor.

During the time on the boat, Wang Ruofu did not feel any discomfort, and before she knew it, she arrived in Bianjing.

Bianjing, also known as the capital.

The Sheng family has a house in the capital, and it has been prepared in advance, so you can move in immediately after you arrive.

Wang Ruofu still lives in Weiruixuan, which is a nice place, and Rulan lives with her.

Lin Qinshuang still lived in Linqi Pavilion, while Minglan lived with the old lady in Shou'an Hall.

After arriving in the capital, the two sons of the family had to go to school together, so the family invited Zhuang Xuejiu, who was a man of extensive knowledge and talent.

The family opened a private school. In addition to the children of the Sheng family, there were also the young master of the Qi family and the second son of the Gu family, Gu Tingye.

It’s just that Gu Tingye temporarily went to Bai Lu Dong Academy to study and did not come to the Sheng family.

So the only outsider was Young Master Qi.

In addition to the brothers of the Sheng family, the girls also have to learn together to increase their knowledge and learn some principles.

In this era, any family with the ability would choose to let their girls study. If they did not allow girls to learn to read and study, they would be ridiculed.

Several young men and women grew up through this study, and the girls have already passed the coming-of-age ceremony.

After school that day, Rulan walked over to Molan and said with a smile, "Fourth sister, please come to my place. You learn faster than me. There are some things I don't understand yet. Fourth sister, please teach me. If mother suddenly asks me and I can't answer, I will be punished."

"Of course, I don't want Fourth Sister to help me for free. I will definitely thank her with a generous gift."

Molan agreed and said, "Sisters don't need expensive gifts. Don't say such things in the future."

"Got it, Fourth Sister."

"By the way, Sixth Sister, come with us too. It's been a while since the three of us have had a good chat."

As she spoke, Rulan turned and looked at Minglan who was sitting behind her.
