Chapter 49 Thoughts
"By the time……"

At this point, it goes without saying.

"Oh?"

Madam Wang nodded unconsciously, indicating that "this plan suits her very well!"
"Yes, Not Bad!"

"That's it!"

Madam Wang's eyes lit up, and her appetite returned.

……

Meanwhile, Sheng Hong hurriedly walked towards Xiao Minglan's courtyard, but as soon as he entered, he saw Xiao Minglan's thin and haggard appearance.

"Father."

Upon seeing Sheng Hong approach, Sheng Hualan, who was sitting upright to the side, immediately stood up and called out to him.

"Ok!"

Sheng Hong waved his hand and immediately turned his gaze to Xiao Minglan on the bed.

"Has Ming'er not woken up yet?"

Sheng Hong sat down on the edge of the bed, looking closely at Minglan's pale face, his heart aching with pain.

"Ok!"

Sheng Hualan whispered, "The doctor just examined her and said that Sixth Sister's high fever and restlessness are caused by excessive grief, which led to mental exhaustion. In addition, she caught a cold, which allowed external evil to enter her body, resulting in her high fever and restlessness, which damaged her soul."

"The doctor has already written the prescription, and he's having someone in the kitchen prepare it. Once the medicine is ready, he can give it to Sixth Sister."

"Ah."

Sheng Hong stroked Sheng Minglan's little face with pity, but his heart was heavy with emotion!

Seeing Minglan fall ill due to the loss of her mother, Sheng Hong couldn't help but think of himself.

Decades ago, when his birth mother, Chun Xiaoniang, passed away, he, like Xiao Minglan, fell ill.

However, he didn't have the same treatment as Minglan does now. When he fell ill, there were no doctors to see him or any prescriptions or medicines available. It was truly a miracle that he survived.

"Hua'er, I'll trouble you to keep a close eye on your sixth sister these days."

After staring blankly for a long time, Sheng Hong suddenly turned to Sheng Hualan behind him and said, "I have some government affairs to attend to these days, so I inevitably haven't been able to pay much attention to this place."

“And sometimes your mother can’t take care of them all, so you, as the older sister, have to look after your sixth sister and seventh brother more.”

"Father, what are you saying!"

Sheng Hualan shook her head and said softly, "As the eldest sister, Hua'er should naturally take care of her younger brothers and sisters more."

"What's more, Sixth Sister and the others are truly pitiful right now!"

At this point, Sheng Hualan couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Although she wasn't familiar with Wei Xiaoniang, Sheng Hualan still admired her character. She was unassuming, content with her lot, and like a snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountains, making it easy for people to feel good about her.

Moreover, Xiao Minglan and Xiao Qi are still her younger brother and sister. In this world, apart from some special circumstances, such as when the two sides are enemies, no one with a sound mind would want to harm their own siblings. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, members of a family share the same fate, and they share the same fate.

Especially since Sheng Hualan is about to get married, they are practically her family, so they would not act like this.

"Ah~"

Sheng Hong could only sigh at this. He felt that he had sighed more in this period than he had sighed in the first half of his life combined!

Perhaps sensing her father's thoughts, Sheng Hualan thoughtfully changed the subject and started talking about something else.

"By the way, Father, have you decided on a name for Xiao Qi?"

"Xiao Qi still doesn't have a formal name?"

Sheng Hualan deliberately brought up Xiao Mengyue, hoping to make Sheng Hong happier with his story. After all, his birth was a joyous occasion for the Sheng family, adding a new member to their family.

Sure enough, a smile involuntarily appeared on Sheng Hong's face when Meng Yue was mentioned.

"Little Seven?"

Sheng Hong pondered for a moment before saying, "Let's wait and see what Xiao Qi's name is. I don't have any clue about it right now." Perhaps because of Meng Yue's background, Sheng Hong was quite particular about his name and didn't reveal it immediately.

"Father, what about your nickname?"

Sheng Hualan smiled and pressed on, "It would be good to give Xiao Qi a nickname first!"

"We can't keep calling her 'Xiao Qi' forever, can we?"

"That really doesn't sound very good!"

Sheng Hong stood up and, as if afraid of disturbing Xiao Minglan on the bed, tiptoed out.

When they reached the outer room, he turned back to Sheng Hualan, who had followed him, and said with a smile, "As for a nickname, let your mother choose one!"

While pondering his own thoughts, Sheng Hong smiled at his eldest daughter and said, "Since you think Xiao Qi doesn't have a nice nickname, why don't you go back and ask your mother to think of one and try to come up with a better one!"

Sheng Hong thought that if he could get Wang Ruofu to give Xiao Mengyue a nickname, it would be a natural thing for her to raise the child. More importantly, he could use the naming as a link to get Wang Ruofu to accept the child, and the two could also establish a relationship.

Sheng Hualan quickly understood her father's meaning and couldn't help but smile.

"Alright, let's do it the way Father says."

"You!"

Seeing his daughter's intelligent appearance, Sheng Hong felt comforted.

"Oh, right, Hua'er!"

Speaking of this, Sheng Hong thought of Xiao Mengyue.

"If you're going to take care of Ming'er, then who has Xiao Qi with?"

Fearing that the newborn Meng Yue might not be being properly cared for, Sheng Hong quickly asked, "Is he still in your yard?"

Sheng Hualan shook her head and said with a smile, "Father, don't worry, how could your daughter leave Xiao Qi alone in the courtyard?"

"Changbai came to my place early this morning and took Xiaoqi away."

"He said he was worried that I didn't have a wet nurse and that Xiao Qi would go hungry, so he asked me to hand Xiao Qi over to him and have him find the wet nurse from yesterday to take care of and feed her."

At this point, Sheng Hualan couldn't help but laugh again.

"I never expected Changbai to care so much about Xiaoqi!"

"What will he do with his own children in the future?"

"hehe!"

Although Sheng Hong was also happy, seeing his children being harmonious and loving made him feel very comforted.

"Changbai, that child!"

With a smile and a shake of his head, Sheng Hong also set off.

"Hua'er, I'll leave things here to you for now. When your mother is doing things, you should also give her some advice and advice, so that she doesn't act rashly and cause other trouble in the end!"

It was obvious that Sheng Hong was somewhat distrustful of Wang Ruofu.

“Father, Mother may be a bit hasty in her actions, but her intentions are good; it’s just that sometimes she doesn’t know how to do things properly.”

Sheng Hualan spoke up to explain for her mother, "If Father could give Mother more guidance in his spare time, that would be wonderful!"

"hehe!"

"You ah you!"

Sheng Hong smiled faintly and shook his head, saying nothing more, only saying, "Alright, I have some things to attend to at my office, so I'll be leaving now."

Behind her, Sheng Hualan gave another curtsy.

"Daughter respectfully sees her father off."

……

I don't owe you anything...
