In terms of quantity, Senior Master Sheng had five grandsons, even not including Sheng Shuihe whom he hadn’t met back then!
But in terms of talents and qualifications, these five grandsons together were not as good as one Xu Baomo of Xu Family, okay?!
How could he reply?
He felt that he was fortunate enough that he didn’t bring his grandsons to Xu Family!
While Sheng Lanci heard this, he had no other choice but to comfort Senior Master Sheng, “Uncle Xu was old, so don’t make a fuss about it with him. Just tolerate him and let it go… Besides, when you compared your sons several years ago, I made you feel proud, didn’t I?”
“You call that old guy younger uncle, but not elder uncle. I am older than him anyhow! Why should I tolerate him?!” Senior Master Sheng roared to his son because his son just spoke for the person out of his family but not for his father. Then he became angrier, “It is just because I have never lost in
Though just rejected by her crush, at her grandmother’s request, Shen Jiuniang would have to make a match for her crush and her cousin; meanwhile, she would have to prevent another cousin from getting into the way. Such a mission was too cruel. But unable to tell the truth, Shen Jiuniang made up an excuse to deal with Old Madam Ming and accepted it with pain!But Old Madam Ming had only told Shen Jiuniang about her consideration with no one else included.So, on the day when they set off, seeing Shen Jiuniang in the troop, Sheng Weiqiao’s eyes dilated instantly, which made Shen Jiuniang stressed.She hastened to pull her cousin aside and explained seriously, “Big Weiqiao, it’s not like what you think! I’m not here for Young Lord Xu in the slightest. It’s because grandmother asked me to come!”For God’s sake, though her family status was far from an equal of Ningwei Marquis, she was brought up with indulgence and pampering. Would sh
Now, Sheng Weiqiao and Sheng Weiwu had no idea what to do!For the past few years, the status of Sheng Lanxin in Shen family had been very stable, and she could also control her position of Wife easily. That’s why, on New Year or other festivals, she could bring her family back to Sheng Family. That’s why Shen Jiuniang was quite familiar with the girls from Sheng Family. Usually, they would not have any quarrel. However, this time, who could believe they were not only abusing each other but also attacking each other?“We are a family. There is no need to fight. We could talk together first.” Sheng Weiqiao was momentarily stunned. When she saw the fighting between Shen Jiuniang and Sheng Weirao was going to escalate, she realized something and took her cousin with her to stop this fight, “Jiuniang, let Third Sister go first. Also, Third Sister, just simmer down. It’s not a good attitude towards your sister!”“She deserves to be my sister?!” Shen
Their destination was Lingxi Mountain at the southwestern corner of Nanfeng County. Lingxi Mountain was very beautiful with various landscapes. It was said that rhinoceros appeared there in ancient times, and hence it was named Lingxi Mountain, literally rhinoceros mountain.From Nanfeng County to the foot of Lingxi Mountain, it was less than a hundred miles, which was not a long journey. However, because of the female members, the carriage needed to slow down, taking three or four days.On their third day away from home, they were caught up when they were at the sight of Lingxi Mountain. The leading person was the chief steward Sheng Fu favored by Sheng Lanci.“Eldest Childe, Eldest Master ordered me to ask you something important!” After Sheng Fu caught up with the team, with no time to say hello to everyone, he rushed to the carriage and raised the curtain. He made sure that Eldest Master’s sweetheart was safe and sound, though she was frigh
This young manservant was sent by Sheng Lanci, “Second Miss, Master asked me to tell you that Childe and you are arranged to go to Feng Family and congratulate them tomorrow. Please pay close attention to Childe and make sure that Childe will go and come back with you together. Please never let Childe go anywhere else!”“Where will he go?” Sheng Weiqiao was puzzled. “It seems that his biological mother passed away. Or does he want to go back to his foster elder brother?”The young manservant said with a smile, “Well… I don’t know about this. I think it’s because Childe’s injuries haven’t cured yet, so Master worries about him.”Sheng Weiqiao snorted and said, “Since father worries about him so much, why does he still ask him to go to Feng Family with me? Why not just lock him here?”Although she said that, Sheng Weiqiao still knew that Sheng Lanci took Sheng Shuihe back was definitely because he was expecting this son to take over
When the six brothers of Feng Family and Xuanyu She were almost about to commit suicide, Sheng Weiqiao just woke up slowly.When she opened her eyes and saw that the curtain above her head was shaking, she thought it was because of the wind. But then when she felt that the place where she was lying was also shaking steadily, she was freaking out and sat up suddenly. Looking out of the porthole beside the bed, there was a vast sea outside!Sheng Weiqiao was stunned immediately!!!First, she pinched her arm hard. After confirming that she was not dreaming, she picked up the neatly folded clothes on the side of the bed in a hurry and quickly got dressed. Then she looked around in horror: this was a very simple bedroom and there was nothing inside except a bed, a curtain, a desk, a chair, and a screen.There was a set of four treasures of study on the desk. The water stains in inkstone were still not dry and it seemed that it has been
Hearing that, Xu Baomo was surprised. Without answering her question, he said, “That ship belongs to Brother Hengshu? But last night… they wanted to bring you away last night?”“My father didn’t want him to go back to his foster brother.” Sheng Weiqiao pursed her lips and said, “So he cooperated with the servants and added the special incense to the herbs fumigated in the whole building so that they could flee after we fell asleep!”She repeated what she heard from Sheng Shuihe and then asked again, “Wasn’t you poisoned by the special incense? How did you catch up so soon? I supposed it would be my father who would send someone to pick me up after receiving the message!”“Because of my curious constitution, the special incense had little effect on me.” Xu Baomo blinked and he explained, “So when those people carried you on board, I figured that something unusual was going on. But when I tried to wake up Eldest Childe Feng and others at the next
The moment when he finished it, Xu Baomo had smiled with extreme indignation and said sharply, “Young Master Han, do you think that since I’m captured by you, everything should be at your disposal?!”“No way!” Young Master Han smiled, “But look at how dignified you are! Even if you are now captured by me so that you help me to eliminate the family of Gongsun, after returning to the land, you’ll probably lobby the navy of the imperial court for focusing their force on us Han Family!”“In case you do harm to us afterward, I have to force your sister to deign to marry a pirate’s son like me. The wealthy families which will be equal to your marquis’ family all admire vanity anyways. If they know that your sister is once trapped by the pirates, even if she goes back, safe and sound, I bet they’ll look down on her!”“Since you’re a good brother who cares about your sister so much, how could you let your sister marry such a family and endure all the p
The ship was waggling violently. At first Young Master Han thought they had encountered stormy waves.As a veteran sailor, he could easily handle a storm like this. The turbulence did not affect the journey in the least. He marched ahead and was even in a good mood to joke around with the servants, “Whoever is at the helm, tell him not to disturb my wedding night with my lady!”Servants smiled and teased him, “The Madam of the Young Master seems rather fragile. You need to treat her dearly! I hope you are not the only one who can get out of bed tomorrow morning. We would also like to pay respects to the Madam!”Before their voice died away, they all heard a snap over their heads. Then howling down from the sky was the sound of a whoosh, which made the watchman let out a cry. A string of poundings was heard afterwards as if the deck had been battered with countless sundries all at once!“What is going on?” Young Master Han suddenly
