Wanqing's words caused Old Mrs Mu to be stunned, the surrounding people even more so, it was as if they did not hear it clearly. Why haven't I heard of it?
Madame Zhou was the first to react, "What did you say? Why have I never heard of such a rule? "You are just fooling others."
"Won't you know whether I'm fooling you or not?" Wanqing had a light smile on her face, but his confident look made Madame Zhou not know if it was real or fake.
Although there were no clear rules in the imperial government, there was indeed such a rule in the yamen. Even though Wanqing did not know the rule at the yamen when she said it, she was just trying to scare the people who did not understand anything.
The sound at the gate woke everyone up. The Sixth Granduncle Elder and his wife brought a big family out and stood behind Wanqing. They all had furious looks on their faces, as if they wanted to fight a group fight.
"What are you doing in front of my house? You still want to find trouble with Wanqing girl, you really don't remember. " The Sixth Granduncle did not give any face to the Old Mrs Mu, and said with an ice-cold voice.
Hearing this, Old Mrs Mu frowned, and shouted angrily: "Sixth Uncle, what are you saying about me? What's wrong with me teaching my granddaughter a lesson? She has money in her hands and doesn't honor my grandmother, so what's wrong with me asking her? Or is it that once Sixth Granduncle accepts the two pieces of cloth from Cheap Girl, they will not be able to differentiate right from wrong? "
"Bullshit, I really didn't expect you to be such a shameless person. The Wanqing girl and your Mu Family have already split, and the contract clearly states that the town's yamen has been newly established, what does the girl's hands have to do with you? So what if I took two cloths? It was Wanqing who gave them to us respectfully, hmph, unlike some people who just want to squeeze others just because they don't see us as people. "
"Grandfather, why are you angry? This dog bit us, there's no need for us to bite back, right? If some people still don't know what's good for them, we can just sue the yamen and let them judge us. Without our parents, how can we treat filial piety when we've been beaten up since we were young?
I don't believe that there is no justice in this world! "Coincidentally, the scars on my body are the best evidence for this." Wanqing said while smiling at Sixth Granduncle.
When the Madame Zhou heard this, she was slightly afraid. After all, the yamen authorities did not pay much attention to their feelings, and the injuries on Wanqing's body were indeed 1 level worse than they were, 1 level worse than the previous levels. If they really went to the yamen, then the Mu Family would not benefit much, and might even need to compensate a little.
The old lady did not think of this and started cursing again, "You little bitch, who are you calling a dog? A prosecutor? You go ahead, I want to see what a little girl like you can tell us. "
After Old Mrs Mu had finished speaking, he didn't even wait for Wanqing to respond before he pulled the old lady's sleeves and whispered, "Mother, Mother can't go. Mother can't let her go.
Hearing that, Old Mrs Mu did not care at all, "What's wrong? I am beating up my own granddaughter, is that not enough? "
"Hmph, you think you deserve to beat your own granddaughter to death? There is really no law! "
"That's right. If everyone here is like you, then what kind of child are you going to give birth to? Wouldn't it be better to raise livestock directly? "
The onlookers were enraged once again. Everyone was so angry that they were working on the ground, Madame Zhou, when she saw this scene, she immediately gave his big brother a look. He did not get the good money yet was made a joke by everyone, it was really a new year for him.
After Wanqing woke up, why did she become like a thorn? If he had known that this would happen, he might as well not let her split up and let her stay at home to work as a lackey and grind her down to the point where she would become a slave. At that time, no matter who was good or bad, the daughter of the family would be recognized as someone's slave. She really didn't understand.
"What's the matter with you two? Why are you here so early in the morning? "Hurry up and go home. Don't you want to make dinner so that the whole family will starve to death?" Old Man Mu's voice appeared behind the crowd, followed by an angry face that appeared in front of everyone, causing Old Mrs Mu and Madame Zhou's hearts to skip a beat. When Wanqing saw Old Man Mu, he still called him grandfather.
When Dou Dou saw Old Mu, she felt wronged and said, "Grandfather, Grandmother and Aunt had already scolded Big Sister early in the morning. Dou Dou did not even dare to speak, Grandfather is afraid of Dou Dou!"
The child's called grandfather Dou Dou was scared, causing everyone to feel uncomfortable, especially Wanqing. He hurriedly hugged Dou Dou into his arms and consoled her in a soft voice, "Dou Dou is not afraid, Big Sister is fine."
"Yup, Dou Dou believes in big sister!" What do you believe in? Did he believe that his sister would definitely be able to defeat those two old demonesses? Dou Dou's words made Wanqing a little depressed. Was her sister really a big tiger?
"Yes, big sister is great!" Wanqing said with a smile, she did not care if there was anyone else by her side, holding back or something, there was no need.
Seeing that Wanqing had such thoughts about talking to Dou Dou, it could be seen that her mentality was extremely strong. She did not know why, but a slight ripple appeared in Mu Liang's heart.
This Wanqing could be considered his niece, even more so in terms of seniority. How was this possible? Thinking of this, Mu Liang hurriedly retracted his gaze. Looking at the person at the door, he felt a burning sensation on his face.
"Third brother, are you alright?" Mu Bai, who was standing beside Mu Liang, asked curiously.
Mu Liang quickly shook his head, "I'm fine, I'm fine."
"Old Mu, your wife is in charge of her own business, don't come out and bite people if you have nothing to do. Humph, there really isn't any tutoring at all." Sixth Granduncle snorted as he spoke.
In the end, Madame Zhou was still afraid of Old Mu, and did not dare to say a word. She held onto Old Mrs Mu's hand and turned around, about to leave, but how could Old Mrs Mu be willing? Before even getting the money, he had to go back and serve her family. Only now did she feel how great it was when Wanqing was at home, that she did not have to do anything.
"Yes, Sixth Uncle is right. I will teach him when we get back." Old Mu was upset.
"Hmph, head, no matter what, Mu Wanqing is our family's granddaughter, if you weren't home when the family split up, then it can't be counted as one. You are her grandfather, let her go back to cook, let's see what else she can say."
"Shut up, get lost and go home. If you come out again, don't tell me you want me to go home and fix you." Old Man Mu was so angry, he regretted marrying such a woman. He didn't have any discernment.
"Uncles and aunties, I'm really sorry for troubling you to come here so early in the morning. I've been hurt, hurry up and get to work. It's getting late." Wanqing placed the beans on the ground, and said smilingly to the people.
The surrounding people laughed and said that it was fine, only then did they turn around and leave. Zhou Dacheng and his wife were extremely depressed, they did not manage to get their hands on the silver, and felt uncomfortable inside, but what could they do if they were uncomfortable? They would have to endure it, then think of a way in the future. They wouldn't believe that a little girl like Wanqing, who brought a little brat with her, could still go to heaven.
After everyone had left, Wanqing then opened the main door of the Sixth Granduncle, and spoke while looking at Old Mu seriously.
"Grandfather, don't say that Grandmother and Eldest Aunt came out, you don't know, Wanqing didn't know that Grandpa truly cared for his granddaughter and Dou Dou, and was only showing that you cared for them on the surface. Perhaps, you really did care about us, but from the time of the branch family meeting, that bit of pity in your heart should have worn out, so you allowed them to do such a thing.
Maybe my grandfather wanted to prove something, to see if I was still the same as before. As long as my grandma and grandma said something, I would obediently listen to them.
Right now, I actually have the guts to actually dare to borrow silver, or perhaps you are more worried that if I don't pay this silver in the future, Mu Family will be implicated, right?
Grandfather, right now Wanqing is telling you, I am no longer the me I was before. When Grandma beat me to death, I had already thought about it, if I could survive this calamity, then I would definitely bring Dou Dou out of the Mu Family, not only for me, but also for her future.
Also, the matter with the silver is my own affair, so it won't affect anyone with Mu Family. Right now, we have already split up, and the contract says that Dou Dou and I aren't only related to my grandma, but also my grandma. Thus, Grandfather doesn't need to probe like this.
Grandfather, please rest assured that you two can live your own lives. In the future, regardless of whether Dou Dou and I are rich or poor, our Mu Family will not be affected, and I only hope that in the future, when we are living a good life, something like today will not happen again. Otherwise, Wanqing's methods will not be as simple as kicking the wooden stake to pieces. "
Wanqing's words had reached the deepest part of Old Mu's heart. He had never thought that Wanqing would actually be so powerful now, to actually be able to see through his heart, and this caused Old Mu to feel that his own granddaughter had been changed. However, the person in front of him was truly his granddaughter who had been bullied since she was young.
Looking at the broken wooden stake, Old Mu was even more shocked that Wanqing had such strength.
"In that case, grandpa can only bless you and Dou Dou. Let's go." Old Mu did not have the face to stay any longer. He took the lead and walked back with his hands behind his back. Madame Zhou glared at Wanqing and pulled Old Mrs Mu, who still wanted to curse at him, and turned back.
Sixth Granduncle and his family never thought that Wanqing would actually think of such a thing, and even got into Old Mu's mind.
"Little girl, how did you come up with that?" Mu Liang curiously took the initiative to ask.
Wanqing turned her head to look at this Little Uncle and softly said, "It's very simple. There is only one condition, and that is for grandfather and grandmother to live together. If Grandma wants to go out, then Grandfather must know."
Wanqing's words seemed to make a lot of sense. If the people in her house didn't come out to find out, then this person was either blind or an idiot.
"Wanqing is very smart, I can finally relax now. Hurry up and cook, if you're hungry, all of you don't need to work on the ground today, go help Wanqing and her sister tidy up their bamboo hut." With Sixth Granduncle's order, everyone obediently nodded their heads, however, they were all stopped in their tracks by Wanqing's words.
"Grandfather, I want to build a new house."
