I just want to live a happy life

"What's going on? No... No, why is this happening?"

Danju shook her head: "Princess Pingning blocked the news. I don't know why, but I know it's because I didn't take good care of the young master and didn't fulfill my duty as a servant."

Minglan turned around and looked at the screen in front of her, feeling upset. Was it because of her? She knew that Qi Heng had been fighting against her mother in order to marry her. Was it because her mother had completely lost her patience that she wanted to warn him with Buwei's death?

So how is Qi Heng now? Is there any problem?

Minglan was very worried.

But even though she was very worried, there was nothing she could do. She could only ask Xiao Tao to keep an eye on it and contact the young master as soon as possible.

After a few days, there was still no news from the Duke of Qi's Mansion. At this time, Minglan's aunt came to Beijing to see Minglan.

Minglan only has her aunt as a relative on her mother's side. Minglan is very happy about her aunt's arrival.

But after her aunt entered the Sheng Mansion, she was trembling with fear, fearing that she would be harmed.

The bowls and chopsticks to be used must be rinsed with water, and the food must be tested with a silver needle before being used.

At night, when the servants were out for bed, Minglan couldn't help asking, "Aunt, what's wrong with you? These are my people, no one will hurt you."

Madam Wei tapped her forehead and said, "Silly girl, I'm afraid you'll get hurt."

Minglan was confused: "I live in my grandmother's yard. My grandmother raised me and she won't harm me."

Madam Wei cried out, pulled Minglan into the bed curtain, and said in a low voice, "Before I came to see you, I met Xiaodie."

Minglan looked up at her aunt: "Xiaodie? Sister Xiaodie, how is she?"

Madam Wei said, "She has lived a good life these years. She got married and had two children. That's not the point. The point is that she told me something that made me think your mother must have been murdered."

"My little mother was murdered?"

Madam Wei nodded: "Xiaodie said that she has never taken anything from her sister. She was kicked out of the Sheng Mansion because of someone's trick. Don't disbelieve her. Xiaodie even swore a solemn oath that what she said was the truth."

Minglan was a little dazed: "What did Sister Xiaodie say?"

Madam Wei said, "Xiaodie has been with your mother for a few years, so she knows a little about her. At the beginning, I simply knew that my sister entered the Sheng Mansion because the Sheng Mansion wanted a woman from a good family to be a concubine, but I didn't expect that there were some things I didn't know."

"Xiao Die said that my sister entered the Sheng Mansion because she made an agreement with Madam Wang. My sister entered the Sheng Mansion as a mistress to help Madam Wang check and balance the mistress. As her daughter, you must know what kind of personality my sister has. She would not do anything like seducing and currying favor with the master."

"Madam Wang saw that my sister was so useless, so she stopped caring about her. Do you think Madam Wang would be willing to accept this? She would definitely punish my sister."

"When Xiaodie was kicked out of the Sheng family, it must have been done intentionally by Madam Wang. She just wanted you to have no one you trust around you."

"Then the baby in your mother's belly grew too big and had a difficult birth. Your mother also died of the difficult birth."

Minglan was a little unconvinced: "Impossible, the eldest lady has status, position, power, everything, how could she possibly lay hands on my young wife, aunt, are you mistaken?"

Madam Wei: "I know you can't believe it. I just happened to bring the doctor who diagnosed your wife's pulse. He is staying in Yuqing Temple. I will take you to see him when I have time. Listen to what he says. If he says that there is nothing wrong with your wife and the difficult birth is just an accident, then I will assume that I was wrong. If there is really something wrong, you should think about what to do next."

Minglan nodded and lay on the bed, thinking about what her aunt had told her. She felt complicated and couldn't sleep at all.

Wang Ruofu used her plant powers to hear the conversation between Madam Wei and Minglan. She snorted coldly. Madam Wei was also a petty person. She seriously suspected that Madam Wei came to her at this time just to use Minglan to avenge Minglan for the embarrassment she had done in the past.

For her sister? She didn't see it at all.

How can it be justified to convict her based on speculation when she had no evidence?

She was just bored, and when someone came to her door, there was no reason for her not to watch the show.

Wang Ruofu looked in the direction of Shou'an Hall. This old lady must have enjoyed enough of the good life over the years. It was time to let the people of the Sheng family know her true face.

As for what choice Minglan would make, she could probably guess it.

After a few days, Minglan found an opportunity to go to Yuqing Temple. She happened to see Madam Wu and Liang Han coming to burn incense. Madam Wu had a good impression of Minglan. Madam Wu didn't care whether Minglan was a concubine's daughter or not. She just felt that Minglan was very much to her liking.

And after that polo match, I felt that Minglan had the same demeanor as she did in her youth, and I liked her even more.

Minglan had more important things to do today, so they parted after a brief conversation.

When Mrs. Wu saw Minglan leave, she looked at Liang Han. Liang Han was looking into the distance and didn't pay any attention to Minglan at all.

Madam Wu was somewhat dissatisfied with Liang Han's reaction: "Han'er, what do you think of the Sixth Miss of the Sheng Family? I think she is very suitable to be your Madam."

Liang Han was helpless and a little impatient: "Mother, I don't like her. If you want to marry the eldest lady, I think the fourth daughter of the Sheng family is better than the sixth daughter. The fourth daughter is a talented woman, she is well-read and elegant, I like such women."

Madam Wu didn't dislike the Fourth Young Lady, but she always felt that the Sixth Young Lady was better. She was raised by the only daughter of Marquis Yongyi, so she must have learned some skills from her grandmother. Moreover, Minglan was also smart and would definitely be able to suppress the lawless girl in Liang Han's yard.

The fourth girl grew up with the young lady, and she didn’t have much contact with her, so she didn’t know if she had the ability to manage the household.

Her Han'er just doesn't understand Minglan. If she understood Minglan, she would definitely like her.

She just wanted a woman like Minglan to enter her home.

After Minglan separated from Madam Wu, she went to the place where her mother's tablet was placed. After entering, she saw her aunt. She burned incense for her mother and then followed her aunt to another room. This room was where the doctor brought by her aunt lived.

In addition, there is another person who is both familiar and unfamiliar to Minglan, Xiaodie.

Xiaodie shed tears of joy as she watched the girl grow up, and Minglan was very touched that sister Xiaodie came to see her after so many years.

After calming down, Minglan turned her attention to the doctor beside her.

Minglan asked, "Doctor, do you still remember my mother? You took her pulse once, in the Sheng family in Yangzhou."

The doctor scratched his head and said, "I have seen many patients over the years. I really can't remember it at the moment. Wait for me to think about it."
