Mrs. Sheng heard that Wang Ruofu was bewitched by her sister to lend loan money, and that Lin Sushuang was pawning the family property again. She knew that Sheng Hong would be troubled by this.Sure enough, Sheng Hong came to ask Mrs. Sheng for advice on housekeeping matters.
Mrs. Sheng asked someone to take out the booklet in which Minglan carefully wrote down the household expenses, and told him that Minglan was a meticulous housekeeper. Minglan's few words helped Sheng Hong get out of trouble. This thought was worthy of it.Sheng Hong took one look at it and asked her to take care of the house temporarily.
Old Mrs. Sheng went on to say that she would simply have someone clean up the yard next to Shou'an Hall so that she could have a separate yard.
