Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 480 Experience 1

After seeing the plight of mortals, Jiang Xinxin proposed to the system for the first time that she wanted to seal all her memories and space and experience reincarnation.

Jiang Xinxin herself wants to make progress, so of course the system has to cooperate with her wholeheartedly. Therefore, it selected some mortal worlds that Jiang Xinxin is familiar with. The first one chosen is a mortal world with Sheng Minglan as the child of destiny.

Youyang is a small city in the south of the Yangtze River close to Chu. There is a wealthy family in the city named Sheng, who are from a merchant family. However, one of their ancestors was lucky enough to win the third place in the imperial examination and marry the legitimate daughter of a marquis. This changed the family's fortunes in one fell swoop. From then on, the first branch of the Sheng family continued to do business in their hometown, but the second branch, as the only son Sheng Hong, left by the third place winner, won the second place, and married the legitimate daughter of Grand Tutor Wang, who was enshrined in the Taimiao, became a decent and upright family.

This Master Sheng Hong was just an insignificant illegitimate son of the former top scholar. When he was young, he and his wife had to face a concubine who had grown up with the top scholar and a stepmother who came from a noble family. He had a very difficult life.

Later, Madam Sheng, who came from a noble family, finally defeated her husband's childhood sweetheart and favorite concubine. However, she turned around and found that her only legitimate son was also dead. After she vented her anger, the third place winner was gone, and his childhood sweetheart also died with him. She was the only one left in the second branch of the Sheng family, the eldest lady, and a bastard son born to a maid.

When Mrs. Sheng came to her senses, she rejected her parents' proposal to remarry, and depended on Sheng Hong, who was less than ten years old. She was determined to revive the second branch of the Sheng family, and turned herself into the lonely Old Mrs. Sheng.

Perhaps it was to prove something, or perhaps she simply couldn't bring herself to lose face. In any case, Mrs. Sheng took great pains to choose a good teacher for Sheng Hong, assisted Sheng Hong all the way to pass the exam and got the second place, and even lost face to ask for Wang Ruofu, the second daughter of Grand Tutor Wang, to marry Sheng Hong. Then, she taught Sheng Hualan, the eldest daughter of the family, for Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu. She devoted all her efforts to the Sheng family.

But there are always exceptions. Just after Wang Ruofu gave birth to the second child of the Sheng family, the eldest son Sheng Changbai, Sheng Hong had an affair with Lin Qinshuang, a girl adopted by Old Lady Sheng, during her pregnancy. In particular, Sheng Hong directly brought the pregnant Lin Qinshuang to Wang Ruofu.

In order to cover up the family scandal, Old Madam Sheng forced Wang Ruofu to drink Lin Qinshuang's concubine tea. From then on, the Sheng family had a favorite concubine who stirred up trouble.

In this life, Jiang Xinxin happened to be born into Lin Qinshuang's belly and became Lin Qinshuang's daughter Sheng Molan.

In order to enjoy wealth and glory, Lin Qinshuang did use many shameful means on Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu, but she loved her own son and daughter very much. For example, for her son Sheng Changfeng, she knew that her son would always get a share of the Sheng family's property in the future. Therefore, when Sheng Changfeng was a child, she was not in a hurry to start school for him, but tried her best to let him cultivate the father-son relationship with Sheng Hong. In this way, Sheng Hong would definitely compensate Sheng Changfeng with more property in private in the future, and would also try his best to consider Sheng Changfeng's future.

As for her daughter Sheng Molan, Lin Qinshuang sometimes regretted having gone too far with Wang Ruofu and offending her so much. Otherwise, she could have sent her daughter to Wang Ruofu to be educated, and she would have had a good reputation for marriage in the future.

Even after she was sure that she could not reconcile with Wang Ruofu, she still thought about sending her daughter to Old Madam Sheng. However, Old Madam Sheng really hated the way Lin Qinshuang had come to power, and she was not happy with Sheng Changfeng and Sheng Molan. She repeatedly rejected Sheng Hong's proposal to educate Sheng Molan.

However, after this happened a few times, Sheng Hong became even more sympathetic and loving towards Lin Qinshuang and her two sons, and secretly gave them a lot of land and shops, so that Lin Qinshuang did not gain nothing.

On this day, Sheng Changfeng took Sheng Molan to practice calligraphy in Lin Qinshuang's Linqi Pavilion. Lin Qinshuang tasted almond tea with a fan in her hand. Looking at the brother and sister loving each other, she felt more and more that her background had implicated the two children. For a moment, the smile on her face turned into bitterness.

Zhou Xuenniang, who was serving nearby, naturally felt very distressed to see Lin Qinshuang like this, but the two young masters were studying hard at the desk in front of the window, so she didn't want to disturb them. She just poured Lin Qinshuang another cup of almond tea, hoping that she would be a little more restrained.

However, when Lin Qinshuang thought that Sheng Hualan was going to marry into the Earl of Zhongqin's mansion in the capital and become the lady of the mansion, and that her own daughter would never be able to marry into such a wealthy and powerful family, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken just thinking about it. In fact, the more outstanding her two children were, the more guilty and self-blamed she felt.

Jiang Xinxin was reincarnated as Sheng Molan. Although all her memories and space were sealed, the system was also worried that she would be completely lost in the mortal world, so it opened a small back door for her. For example, her appearance will become more and more beautiful as she grows older, and her body will gradually gain strength and defense as she grows older. She will even be able to be strong enough to carry a tripod and be immune to all poisons after she becomes an adult.

Of course, a good brain is also indispensable. The system also quietly releases spiritual energy in the space for her to absorb. Lin Qinshuang and Sheng Changfeng, who often stay with her, have benefited a lot.

Sheng Molan had sharp ears and sharp eyes. Even though she couldn't see the changes in Lin Qinshuang's expression because her back was facing away, she could sense the feeling emanating from her. So before Lin Qinshuang could adjust her mood, she turned around and saw Lin Qinshuang's bitterness, unwillingness and resentment.

Molan immediately put down the pen in her hand and sat next to Lin Qinshuang, and asked carefully and concernedly: "What's wrong, mother?"

Lin Qinshuang knew something was wrong as soon as her daughter turned around, but it was too late. She knew her daughter's sensitivity very well, and when her son came over, she decided to tell him what was on her mind.

Lin Qinshuang reluctantly said, "Your elder sister's future husband's family is the second son of the Zhongqin Marquis's Mansion in the capital. Changbai's future wife must also be from a noble family. There are only the two of you. Mother can't give you any help. You can only count on your father in the future..."

And Sheng Hong himself is a selfish person. If anything goes wrong, I'm afraid he can't be relied upon at all!

Sheng Changfeng is ten years old this year, but he is the only boy in the family after all. Even though Old Lady Sheng and Wang Ruofu have unanimously decided to raise him as a waste, he has already understood his situation under the advice of Lin Qinshuang and Molan.

At this moment, he didn't know what to do, but he still tried his best to persuade Lin Qinshuang, "Don't worry, mother. I am five years older than my sister. When my sister reaches the age of marriage, it should be no problem for me to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar. If I work harder, I can also hope to pass the imperial examination before my sister gets married."

"That way, I can choose a wife of equally good family background, and it will be a good choice for my sister to see."

Molan also said: "Yes, yes, we can still rely on our brother."

What Lin Qinshuang was most proud of at the moment was giving birth to such a pair of children. She couldn't help but cry with joy while holding her two children.

But when she was lying in bed with Molan at night, Lin Qinshuang couldn't help but said worriedly: "Mo'er, mother knows that you are smart and perceptive. If you were not born from my belly, I'm afraid Hualan wouldn't be able to compare with you. It's all mother's fault that you have been delayed!"

Molan didn't expect that Lin Qinshuang was still thinking about these things. She told Lin Qinshuang about her plan with a smile on her face: "Mother, I have never thought about being taken in by the eldest lady or the old lady. It is true that people value legitimate children over illegitimate children, but in reality, they don't care that much. It is true that my daughter is being raised in seclusion now, but there will always be a day when she will go out to visit guests. With my daughter's intelligence, can she miss the company of young talents?"
