Zhao Ceying was going to inspect the salt affairs, but there were no capable generals around him, Shen Congxing and Xiao Duan were involved in lawsuits, and there was a tigress beside Lao Geng, so Gu Tingye had to go.Sheng Minglan was very considerate of him, so she let him hold her, but the hold became tighter and tighter.Sheng Minglan had no choice but to say that she was pregnant. Gu Tingye was stunned for a long time before he realized that she was pregnant. He burst out laughing, and then he hugged Sheng Minglan and screamed that he was pregnant, which scared Xiao Tao at a loss.Gu Tingye carefully carried Sheng Minglan back into the house. He was so happy that he was dumbfounded.At night, Gu Tingye thought of Brother Chang, fearing that the child in Sheng Minglan's belly would also be spoiled.Gu Tingye said that he would give her a team and would also invite Aunt Chang to come, and asked Sheng Minglan to protect herself with thousands of instructions.
At dawn, Zhao Zongquan went to see Gu Tingye, Zhao Ceying and others off in person. Sheng Minglan searched for a long time on the city wall before she found Gu Tingye. Watching him leave the city, she shed a few tears unconsciously.Mrs. Sheng was talking and laughing with Sheng Minglan. She turned into a child when she saw her granddaughter. Fang's mother told Xiao Tao and Dan Ju to take good care of Sheng Minglan.And Mrs. Sheng really couldn't stand Aunt Kang, so Sheng Minglan didn't have to look at her face.Aunt Kang often came to Xiao Qin's place, so Sheng Minglan inevitably ran into her. This time she was ridiculed by Aunt Kang again, and she and Xiao Qin were acting together.She was a relative who could not be beaten, but she always acted like an elder. After Sheng Minglan said a few words, her Aunt Kang started to curse.
At this time, Danjue came to report that Aunt Chang was here, and Aunt Kang pointed at Sheng Minglan's nose and scolded her. When Sheng Minglan heard that she was so disrespectful to Aunt Chang, she glared at her, leaving Aunt Kang speechless.explain.Aunt Chang came all the way from Yangzhou and took Sheng Minglan's hand to say hello.After hearing what Dan Ju said about Aunt Kang, Grandma Chang was immediately displeased.Aunt Kang came every few days, and every time she asked Sheng Minglan to accompany her. This time, she was urged by Xiang's mother again.Sheng Minglan was very uncomfortable, and Grandma Chang was so angry that she pointed at her mother's nose and scolded her, and actually asked to go see her herself.
While Xiao Qin and Aunt Kang were talking, Grandma Chang came and her tone was extremely unkind.However, Aunt Kang said that Sheng Minglan did not respect her elders. Aunt Chang was so stubborn that she even scolded her directly. She was so angry that she wanted to fight with her, but Xiao Qin quickly stopped her.Aunt Kang almost lost her breath when Auntie Chang left.Shao heard the commotion and wanted to go out to take a look, but Sister Xian quickly stopped him.Grandma Chang pointed at the yard and cursed one after another. Aunt Kang shouted that she wanted to tear her mouth off. Who would have expected that she fell down before going out, which frightened little Qin.Danju went to apologize to Xiao Qin at night, saying that she would vent her anger when Gu Tingye came back. Xiao Qin was furious but could only endure it, but secretly made up her mind to take action and did not want to look at Sheng Minglan.Live life with a face.
Zhao Zongquan was planting wheat in his own field again. Concubine Liu Guifei was chatting aside and talking about how Gu Tingye was so scheming and could only reluctantly patrol salt for Zhao Zongquan.Zhao Zongquan paused and seemed not to believe it. Concubine Liu continued to talk about Sheng Minglan, saying that she had hooked up with Qi Heng, which was really disgusting.Zhao Zongquan couldn't tell what he was thinking. Seeing that he was not annoyed, Concubine Liu also hinted that Zhao Ceying was in a party with Gu Tingye and Sheng Changbai. Now even if Zhao Zongquan believed in Gu Tingye, he would still be a little wary.And this was naturally what the Queen Mother asked her to say.
Sister Rong and Sister Xian checked the accounts, and Sheng Minglan was very happy. With this ability, she would be able to survive no matter what happens in the future. She also took out the jewelry for the two of them to choose.At this time, Aunt Kang's concubine Zhao'er suddenly asked to see her, saying that Aunt Kang asked her to come to apologize to Sheng Minglan, and she looked panicked.Sheng Minglan asked her to sit down and eat some fruit before leaving, but Zhao'er invited her to go next door to have a glass of wine with Aunt Kang. Seeing that Sheng Minglan didn't want to go, she knelt down and begged her.Seeing this, Sheng Minglan still had no intention of leaving, and Zhao'er had no choice but to leave in tears.Sheng Minglan knew that it was not easy for a concubine. If she didn't go to Zhao'er, she would be embarrassed by Aunt Kang, so she had no choice but to go.Aunt Kang was scolding angrily, but when she saw Sheng Minglan coming, she quickly changed her face.Xiao Qin talked to a few people at the table, saying that the Gu family didn't have many heirs, and couldn't bear to see the deserted house, and she was about to cry.Then, Xiao Qin came up with Zhao'er's idea and decided to give Zhao'er to Gu Tingye as his second wife.
