MTL - To Hold One’s Joy-Chapter 11 victimizer

  Chapter 11 The victim

  There is a lot of water in the south. Although Luo Chen was raised in his grandfather's house because of his frailty, he has four cousins, so the opportunity to go into the water is inevitable.

   If you want to say that you are proficient in water, there is no such thing.

   Immersed in the lake water in early spring, Luo Chen felt a sense of despair, unable to stop his body from sinking.

  The sudden thrust made him subconsciously open his eyes, and the girl's porcelain-white face was looming in the mist.

  Luo Chen was about to say something, but when he moved his lips, he choked on a mouthful of water. When he was dragged ashore by the red beans, he was already extremely weak, coughing so loudly.

   Soon Luo Sheng and Sheng Jialan were rescued one after another.

  Luo Sheng was rescued by a long-faced woman, and Sheng Sanlang was the one who rescued Sheng Jialan.

Sheng Sanlang dragged Sheng Jialan ashore and saw that she was fine, so he immediately handed her over to the maidservant at the side, and ordered the servants all around the lake: "Hurry up and take the second girl and the cousin back to the house to change clothes, and invite the doctor to come In the cousin's room!"

  After saying this, he bent down and picked up Luo Chen, who was coughing, and ran away in a blink of an eye.

  The news that Luo Sheng and Sheng Jialan fell into the water quickly spread throughout the Sheng Mansion.

  A maidservant wearing blue bijia walked into Sheng Jiayu's boudoir quickly, and said anxiously: "Miss, Second Miss and Cousin Miss fell into the water!"

  Sheng Jiayu was bored with embroidering because she didn't make an appointment with Sheng Jialan to visit the makeup shop today. Hearing this, she threw away the embroidery frame and stood up: "Where are they?"

  The maidservant in Tsing Yi replied: "The two girls were called to Funing Hall by the old lady after changing their clothes—"

  Sheng Jiayu didn't care to finish listening, and rushed to Funingtang with the corner of her skirt.

  In the courtyard of Funing Hall, the four Sheng Dalang brothers came one step ahead of Sheng Jiayu, and were standing beside the orange tree talking in a low voice.

   "When I heard that my second sister and cousin Luo had fallen into the lake, I was so anxious to death. Seeing that my cousin had already jumped down to save cousin Luo, I quickly rescued my second sister." Sheng Sanlang spoke of the thrill just now, his face a little ugly.

  Sheng Erlang frowned: "So, when you arrived, Second Sister and Cousin Luo were already in the lake?"

"yes."

  Sheng Erlang glanced at the door of the house, and said with a sneer: "Second sister is really unlucky."

  Sheng Saburo didn't quite understand, and wiped his face: "Second brother, what does this mean?"

  On the side, Sheng Dalang disagreed and said: "Second Brother, Second Sister and Cousin Luo are being questioned by Grandmother, the matter has not been clarified yet, so don't talk nonsense."

  Sheng Erlang curled his lips: "I'll know soon if I'm talking nonsense."

  Sheng Sanlang realized it later, and lost his voice: "Second Brother, you mean that Second Sister was pushed down by Cousin Luo?"

"Are you stupid?" Sheng Erlang tapped Sheng Sanlang on the head with a folding fan, and said angrily, "I don't know what it means to know, but you have to shout. Let me ask you, if my cousin hadn't rescued Luo at that time Cousin, which one do you save first after jumping off?"

   Sheng Saburo was stopped by the question.

  Sheng Erlang's question aroused the intense curiosity of Sheng Dalang and Sheng Shiro, and all three of them stared at Sheng Saburo waiting for the answer.

  Sheng Saburo only felt the pressure was like a mountain, and he said: "I don't know..."

   "Don't know?" Sheng Erlang raised his voice slightly.

  Sheng Saburo felt the contempt from his brother, and quickly explained: "A cousin, a cousin, it's not a good choice. I will drown when I finish entanglement. I think I can save the one who is closest."

  Sheng Saburo felt that this answer was perfect, but he didn't expect to be hit by a folding fan again.

"Of course it's to save the second sister!" Sheng Erlang reprimanded his brother with a tone of hatred for iron and steel, "So many servants rushed over and let people drown? You carried Cousin Luo up in the public, and the grandmother I found my grandson and son-in-law!"

  Sheng Saburo opened his mouth wide: "Also, can it still be like this?"

  Sheng Erlang snorted coldly: "Maybe this is Cousin Luo's plan—"

   Sheng Dalang frowned and interrupted Sheng Erlang: "Second brother, this is too much."

  Sheng Jiayu rushed into the courtyard like a gust of wind: "Brother, are Second Sister and the others in there?"

   Seeing Sheng Dalang and the others nodding, Sheng Jiayu hurried up the steps and opened the door to enter.

  Sheng Silang was young after all, seeing Sheng Jiayu went in, he couldn't help it, and whispered: "I'll go and listen to what grandma and the others are saying."

  Seeing that Sheng Shilang also ran away, Sheng Erlang said with a serious face: "How can a man listen to the wall, it's outrageous! Big brother, third brother, wait a moment, I'll bring fourth brother back."

  Sheng Sanlang looked at Sheng Erlang's back, touched his chin, and murmured: "I always feel that something is wrong..."

  Sheng Dalang shook his head and smiled, standing quietly beside the orange tree.

In the room, Hongdou pinched her waist with one hand, and was hurting Chen Sheng Jialan's crime: "Our girl told me to go back to the room and bring some melon seeds. I didn't expect that when I rushed to the garden with the melon seeds, I saw the second cousin push our girl down...Old lady Sheng , if you don't make the decision for our girl today, then I, I will pack up and go back to Beijing to tell the governor!"

  The little maid spoke quickly, and what she said made Old Madam Sheng and the others clouded.

  Luo Sheng stood with his eyes downcast, and sighed in his heart: The little girl is still a bit simple, so fierce, how can she look like a suffering master.

  But——Luo Sheng thought of himself, and hooked the corners of his lips.

  She is not the kind of person who will cry and beg for sympathy when she is wronged, so it seems that their master and servant are quite compatible.

  Under Hongdou's intimidation, Mrs. Sheng frowned and looked at Sheng Jialan.

  Sheng Jialan, who had changed into a moon-white dress, had half-wet black hair, and a few strands of black hair fell down against her cheeks, making her face even paler.

  Sheng Jialan knelt down before Mrs. Sheng could speak, and said in a trembling voice, "It's all my granddaughter's fault, please punish me grandma."

  Besides that, she didn't say a word, and her whole body trembled with her forehead on the ground.

  Hongdou kicked Sheng Jialan over, and spat: "Damn, what are you pretending to be weak and delicate, watch me tear your mouth apart!"

  The little maid is not someone who just talks and doesn't do anything, she immediately rolled up her sleeves to tear up Sheng Jialan who was kicked in a daze.

  Old lady Sheng had never seen such a maid before, and she didn't react for a while.

  Luo Sheng pursed his thin lips lightly, without any intention of stopping it.

  Facing the victimizer, she doesn't mind charging some interest first.

"Stop!" There was a scolding sound, Sheng Jiayu rushed into the room and pulled away Hongdou who had unilaterally beaten Sheng Jialan, pointed at Luo Sheng and cursed, "Luo Sheng, you insist on killing my second sister, right? I didn't I've never seen someone as vicious as you!"

  Hongdou followed the former girl Luo and even beat up the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, so she was not afraid of Sheng Jiayu, so she immediately raised her fist and prepared to deal with the stronger cousin girl first.

  Luo Sheng signaled Hongdou to stop, and calmly looked at Sheng Jiayu: "Cousin didn't hear Hongdou's words? It is Sheng Jialan who wants to put people to death."

  Sheng Jiayu sneered: "Hongdou is your maid, so you can say whatever you want her to say!"

  Old lady Sheng blinked when she heard this.

  Thinking about what my granddaughter did after she came to the Sheng family, I have to say that there is some truth to what the eldest granddaughter said.

  Compared to Sheng Jiayu's fury, Luo Sheng still looked calm, and asked lightly: "Then, isn't my cousin curious why Sheng Jialan appeared by the lake?"
