Becoming a literary master starting from the story of Minglan

Chapter 94 Epilogue
"Seventh Young Master, what do you think?"

A rough-looking old woman looked at Sheng Changquan in the ancestral hall and gave him a somewhat awkward reminder.

"Alright, Granny!"

Sheng Changquan naturally understood what she meant, so he didn't make things difficult for her. He simply said, "I'll leave after I say a few words to my sister!"

"Uh, yes!"

The old woman didn't dare to dwell on these matters, and simply responded before standing outside the ancestral hall.

After sending the maid away, Sheng Changquan finally had time to have a proper talk with Minglan.

He turned around and looked at Minglan, who was kneeling on the prayer mat beside him, sobbing softly. He asked with concern, "Sister, are you alright?"

Because she had never been beaten before, and Minglan's body was indeed quite delicate, even though she wanted to endure it, she still couldn't bear the pain and couldn't help but shed tears.

"Well, it's okay!"

Minglan answered softly, her voice trembling with tears and a hint of sobbing.

Although Sheng Hong did show mercy, the ruler was still an unbearable pain for the delicate Minglan. At this moment, even though Minglan didn't feel much grievance, she still kept crying due to the physical pain.

Meanwhile, since Sheng Hong had already left, Ru Lan and Mo Lan were back to their usual arguing routine, especially since they had just been beaten, so both of them were full of anger.

"Sheng Molan, have you no shame?"

"You made the mistake yourself, yet you framed us and harmed your sister!"

"Do you even have a little bit of responsibility or the demeanor of an older sister?"

Rulan cried as she angrily accused Rulan.

"You're the one who's stupid, how dare you criticize me?"

Mo Lan protested, "If you had even a shred of brains, you would never speak or act like this!"

Not only was Rulan angry, but Molan was also furious: "Look at you! If we had just stayed in the back and been careful, nothing would have happened. But you just couldn't control your mouth and shouted so loudly!"

"If it weren't for you, would we have been discovered?"

Mo Lan curled her hands up, breathing on them repeatedly to try and ease the pain in her palms: "Instead of reflecting on your own actions, you're yelling at me like that. You're incredibly stupid!"

Just like your mother!

Of course, she spoke the last sentence very softly, so that Rulan could hear it, but at the same time, she didn't let the two maids outside hear it.

"what?"

"what are you saying?"

Rulan was furious: "How dare you slander your stepmother? You are truly... truly rebellious and disregard human ethics!"

At this moment, Rulan disregarded the pain in her hand and jumped up, pointing at Molan and loudly condemning, "Sheng Molan, you're dead! I'm going to tell Father and have him punish you!!"

"Ha~"

Mo Lan glanced disdainfully at the dazed Ru Lan opposite her, a mocking smile curving her lips: "You misheard me, I didn't say anything."

Seeing Rulan's persistent attitude, Molan simply spoke up: "Besides, even if you go, I'm not afraid. Anyway, Father trusts me more!"

A seemingly casual remark pierced Rulan's heart.

"you you……"

Rulan's lips trembled, and she nearly fell backward in anger!

"I...I'll go tell my mother right now, and I'll have her punish you!"

Rulan didn't want to admit it, but she had to say that what Molan said made sense. If she were to go and complain to Sheng Hong, the final outcome would probably be just like that.

"Minglan, Changquan, you two are my witnesses!"

At this moment, Rulan finally noticed the two siblings beside her.

"Alright, fourth sister, fifth sister, just shut up already!"

Before Minglan could speak, Sheng Changquan said, "You just made a mistake and have already been punished by Father. If you continue to make trouble like this, I'm afraid you won't get away with it."

"Let's just quietly get through this punishment first!"

Sheng Changquan rolled his eyes and gave his two older sisters a piece of advice: "This will save us from angering Father again and implicating my sixth sister!" "How dare you say that?"

At this moment, Mo Lan finally exploded: "Wasn't it you who pushed me in the hall earlier?"

"It made me fall, and I fell right in front of Brother Yuanruo!"

Just thinking about the scene made Mo Lan wish she could kill herself on the spot!

Of course, before committing suicide, he must take revenge and drag Sheng Changquan down with him!
"Fourth sister, what nonsense are you talking about?"

When did I push you?

Sheng Changquan, who was always cautious and discerning, would never forget the lesson that walls have ears. Moreover, don't think he didn't see the two old women outside the door with their ears perked up.

So, let alone admitting it, he had never even heard of this matter before!

"Fourth sister, are you just pretending that everyone else likes to push people because you like to push them?"

Sheng Changquan's "judging others by your own standards is unacceptable" attitude directly provoked Mo Lan to the point that she almost wanted to vomit blood!

"Hmph! Changquan, you did well!"

Rulan had calmed down by now. She didn't doubt what Molan said and thought it was true. After all, if Molan hadn't been pushed, how could she have fallen in front of them?
You should know that she and Minglan were pushed out by Molan.

but.

"Hmph, Sheng Molan, are you the only one allowed to push us, but others aren't allowed to push you?"

"You brought this on yourself!"

"Deserve it!"

"Sheng Rulan, you idiot!"

"..."

Alright, the two of them are at it again!

Sheng Changquan shook his head, deciding to stop paying attention to that side. He turned to Minglan and asked softly, "Sister, are you hungry?"

Because of their rudeness today, Minglan and the others were naturally punished by not being allowed to eat. Therefore, they were still hungry until now. In addition, Sheng Hong's words before leaving meant that Minglan and the others would have to go hungry for the rest of the night.

"Yeah, a little bit."

The siblings didn't stand on ceremony: "Brother, did you leave some food for us?"

Minglan was naturally aware of Sheng Changquan's interest in cooking, so her eyes lit up and she looked at him expectantly!
"Hehe, sister, I specially brought a few extra steamed buns from the kitchen for you guys tonight during dinner!"

As he spoke, Sheng Changquan took out a white handkerchief from his pocket, inside which were four or five fist-sized steamed buns.

It's white and very tempting.

At least, that's how Minglan sees it.

"Cough cough...Seventh Young Master!"

Just then, the old woman outside urged again, "Look..."

"Okay, here I come!"

Sheng Changquan secretly kept the steamed bun in his arms, then winked at Minglan, signaling her to hide it well, since Sheng Hong was going to let them go hungry for a night.

"Sis, be careful, I'm off!"

Minglan nodded, then like a little squirrel, she grabbed the still warm handkerchief and hurriedly hid it to avoid being seen by the nanny outside the door.

"Yes, little brother, please tell Grandma for me that I'm fine and that she doesn't need to worry."

"Ok!"

Sheng Changquan nodded, then greeted Mo Lan and Ru Lan, who were arguing fiercely nearby, before leaving.

After the two old women closed the ancestral hall door again, Minglan secretly whispered, "Fourth Sister, Fifth Sister, stop arguing and come eat something!"

As he spoke, to the astonishment of the two men, he took out the few steamed buns that Sheng Changquan had left behind.

"This was left by Xiaoqi, let's eat it quickly!"

Since there's no contract and it's not officially published yet, I'll guarantee at least one update a day, and I'll slowly pay back the ones I owe after it's published... (If there's no chance of getting a contract, I'll just update one update at a time.)
