Chapter 51 Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight

Seeing Xiaodie in a daze, Wei Xiaoniang smiled and patted the back of her hand, saying softly, "Hurry up and help me dress up. It's getting late. We still have to go to Shou'an Hall to celebrate the old lady's birthday."

"Yes, little girl."

Xiaodie collected her thoughts, responded, and deftly combed her hair.

When Wang Ruofu chose the girl from Zhongwei, she was attracted by her stunning appearance that could not be concealed by her straw hat and cloth skirt.

Even though she has given birth to two children and has been living in a deep house for a long time, her eyes and eyebrows are still clear and elegant, and she has a natural charm.

Not long after, Wei Xiaoniang took Xiaodie and Liu Ge'er and slowly walked out of the courtyard.

When passing by Linqi Pavilion, her expression remained unchanged, but a hint of imperceptible complexity flashed in her eyes.

In Shou'an Hall, laughter and joy continue.

Zhao Han, Changbai and others were having a pleasant conversation outside, while Hualan took her sisters to wish the old lady a happy birthday one by one.

Mother Cui walked around the screen and came in and said, "Old lady, Miss Wei is here."

Old Madam Sheng raised her eyebrows slightly, smiling, "Let her in. She has always been a thoughtful person."

Molan, who was sitting beside him, felt her fingertips tremble slightly, and she subconsciously looked up at Sheng Hong, only to see her father looking at the door with a smile, obviously looking forward to Wei Xiaoniang's arrival.

It was the old lady's birthday, and the concubines in the mansion should have come to congratulate her, but Lin Qinshuang wanted to come but couldn't.

Whenever she got close to Shou'an Hall, the nanny would send her away. This was a rule that the old lady had set long ago.

Wang Ruofu glanced at Molan lightly with the corners of her mouth rising slightly. She had been looking forward to sitting on the mountain and watching the fight between tigers for a long time.

There are concubines on both sides, and the more fierce the fight, the more she, the eldest lady, can reap the benefits.

Wei Xiaoniang walked to the inner room, lowered her eyebrows, bowed respectfully, and said in a clear voice, "I am here to congratulate the old lady on her birthday."

"May the old lady live as long as the Nanshan Mountains, unfading and unremitting, and as luxuriant as the pines and cypresses, and may all be passed down to you."

After these words were spoken, Sheng Hong, who was originally leaning on the chair, leaned forward unconsciously, with a look of surprise on his face.

He knew that Wei Xiaoniang had read some books, but these words had a unique charm coming from her mouth.

"I'm afraid ordinary things won't be pleasing to the old lady."

"I spent several days copying this volume of the Diamond Sutra by hand to celebrate the old lady's birthday."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiaodie handed the scripture to the old lady, who looked at it expectantly.

On the sutra, the small calligraphy with hairpin flowers was as neat as soldiers lined up in battle formation, and the faint fragrance of ink mixed with sandalwood came over.

She nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good boy, you are thoughtful. Come and sit down and talk."

Wang Ruofu looked at Molan's expression and couldn't help but smile. "The Wei family's sister is so filial. Mother really loves Ming'er well. One of them is more considerate than the other."

These words were openly praising Wei Xiaoniang and Minglan, but secretly mocking Lin Qinshuang and Molan.

Sure enough, Molan's pretty face was tense at this moment, and the handkerchief in her hand was almost twisted into a knot.

Rulan nudged Minglan quietly with her elbow, stifling a laugh and whispering, "Xiao Liu, look at Molan's face. It's uglier than a fly."

Minglan pursed her lips, "Fourth sister..."

Just as the words were on the tip of her tongue, she heard Molan impatiently say, "Grandma, my mother has also prepared gifts long ago and is just waiting to come and congratulate you on your birthday."

The old lady was a little unhappy, but she didn't show it on her face and still had a kind smile on her face.

Wang Ruofu's heart was beating slightly, and she couldn't help rolling her eyes at her.

Seeing the atmosphere become somewhat awkward, Sheng Hong quickly smoothed things over, saying, "I'll go over there tomorrow and personally deliver the gift to the old lady, so your mother won't have to make the trip." "Father..." Mo Lan cast a pleading look at Sheng Hong.

The old lady only focused her gaze on Wei Xiaoniang and asked softly, "Where's Brother Liu? Didn't you bring him here?"

Wei Xiaoniang smiled, her eyes full of tenderness: "To answer the old lady, he is with Zhao's son."

"As soon as he entered the room, Brother Liu kept smiling at him and waved his hands, wanting Brother Zhao to hug him."

"This child is usually very shy, but he gets along very well with the Zhao family's brother."

The old lady's eyes darkened slightly, and she smiled meaningfully, "Children are the most intelligent. They know who will treat them well."

"Yes, if it weren't for our son-in-law, Brother Liu wouldn't be where he is today."

Wang Ruofu waved her round fan, hinting at something.

Sheng Hong felt uneasy and coughed lightly, saying, "Why bring up these past events for no reason? It's getting late, I should tell the servants to serve the food."

Wang Ruofu snorted.

Soon, the tables for men and women were set in the side hall of Shou'an Hall.

At the banquet, after three rounds of drinks, Sheng Wei raised his glass and said, "Brother Hong, Brother Han."

"Changwu's future is looking promising, and my business in the capital is doing well. In two days, I will be ready to return to Youyang."

"Song Ge'er is still young, and I'm a little worried about him running the shop alone in Youyang."

"The next time I come to Bianjing, it will probably be the wedding day of Miss Hua."

He smiled and looked at Sheng Hong, "As her uncle, I have to give her at least a few dozen dowries."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Hong immediately acted embarrassed and helpless, waving his hands repeatedly and saying, "Oh my, how can I let Brother Wei spend money again..."

Having said that, he couldn't hide his joy at the moment.

Zhao Han thought to himself: This God of Wealth is sending money to the Sheng family again.

Molan had just been humiliated in front of the old lady and Sheng Hong, and was feeling depressed. After eating a few bites with her chopsticks, she said she was not feeling well and hurriedly left the table with Yunzai.

Rulan felt particularly happy when she saw Minglan like that, and she pulled Minglan to have two more bowls of rice with her.

Linqi Pavilion.

After Lin Qinshuang learned what had happened, her pretty face instantly turned red, and her usually soft and charming eyes now flashed with a sinister light.

Molan wiped her tears and sobbed, "Mother, I said the wrong thing today because I was anxious. Will Daddy be angry and stop loving me in the future?"

Lin Qinshuang sighed softly, stroked Molan's head, and said softly: "How could that be? Wait until tomorrow and admit your mistake to him. Be sweet-mouthed, and your father will still hold you in his heart."

"What kind of grievance are you suffering today? If you are so impatient, how can you marry into a wealthy family and become the wife in the future? Let Yunzai take you to clean your face and don't let others laugh at you."

Molan always believed in Lin Qinshuang's words, and waited until she left.

Lin Qinshuang's expression changed immediately. In her anger, she almost bit her teeth and said, "What a scoundrel Wei family!"

"You've barely escaped death, but it looks like you're going to fight me to the death."

"Just give Minglan to that old hag, and you actually want to please her too."

Zhou Xueniang stood aside and said softly, "After all, the old lady is not the master's biological mother. How much can she interfere in the affairs of the harem?"

"As long as I hold my master's heart firmly, I don't think I can stir up any trouble."
