Wanqing had already woken up, because of the original owner's biological clock, even if she wanted to sleep for a while longer, she couldn't. Since she had woken up, she would help prepare the food for the entire family of Sixth Granduncle.
There was his eldest son Mu Yun, his eldest daughter-in-law Li, his eldest grandson Mu Guang, his eldest daughter-in-law Madame Wang, Mu Liang, and his great-grandson Mu Qiu. They were all eighteen years old this year.
Second house, second son, Mu Bai; second son, wife, Madame Zhang; grandson, Mu Shang; grandson, wife, Madame Zheng; two great-grandchildren, Mu Shi, sixteen years old; and Mu Lin, fourteen.
This morning's breakfast was supposed to be prepared for a dozen or so people to eat. It was also a huge project, Wanqing originally thought that she had woken up very early, but after entering the kitchen, she realized that she had woken up rather late.
"Good morning, Auntie!" Wanqing's sweet voice came from the kitchen door. Mu Liang's wife, Madame Wang, turned around and saw Wanqing standing at the door with a smile on her face. "Why are you up so early? Why did she not sleep much? "Quickly go back and have a good sleep. Girls your age should be able to sleep in peace. Only then can you have a beautiful face."
Madame Wang also doted on Wanqing dearly, she was clearly a girl who was younger than her own son, and had to suffer so much since she was young, how could she not make people feel pain in their hearts?
"It's alright, auntie. I'm already used to it. If I don't help, then I won't be able to eat!" Wanqing smiled as she walked in. After washing her face and pouring cold water, she started a fire to cook.
Looking at the washed white rice on the stove, Wanqing sighed. It had been so long since she last saw the white rice, and looking at it today, it really gave him a sense of nostalgia.
The life of Sixth Granduncle's family was not bad. In most families, there was no end to eating brown rice.
"Wanqing, you Cheap Girl, come out!" Old Madam Mu's voice was loud, and anyone who called out from outside the courtyard entrance would be able to hear her from inside the kitchen. When Wanqing heard this, her brows knitted tightly.
"What's going on? Why is Old Madam Mu here? " Madame Wang frowned, she could tell that she was not in a good mood, and it was because this early in the morning, if someone heard such a loud voice, would they be in a good mood?
"Auntie, I'm really sorry. She came to find me. I'm going out to see what's going on." While Wanqing was speaking, she walked outside. Madame Wang put down the work in her hands and followed him out, "I'll go with you. It must be bad for that old lady to come over here.
Wanqing's heart warmed once again. Weren't people in ancient times all those kind of pedantic people?
When Wanqing went out of the door to take a look, she discovered that there were a lot of commoners following behind the two of them. Moreover, there were two faces that Wanqing was very familiar with, they were the big brother and sister-in-law of the Madame Zhou.
"I wonder why Mu Family Grandmother is looking for me?"
"You little b * stard, hand over the silver coins in your hands, my Mu Family people are really ungrateful, I never thought that you would be such a shameless person, if I said I would split the family, but you actually stole someone from outside, I pah, you little slut. "Woman, hurry up and take out the silver. Otherwise, I will definitely make the people of the clan throw you into the pond!"
In the morning, she and Madame Zhou had come up with a plan. As soon as they came up, they would put a stolen hat on a little girl named Mu Qing, who was a thin faced girl, and upon hearing this, they would definitely hand over the silver. Moreover, Zhou Dacheng had already said that the silver was borrowed from Li Zhengzheng's family, and that the two young men from the Li Zhengzheng's family might actually be the real culprits.
If it was the previous Wanqing, she would not know how to refute her words and would definitely pay the bill. But the current Wanqing was no longer the same person, what was there to fear?
"Hmph, I have really seen people with big faces, but I have never seen anyone with such a big face. Mu Family Grandmother, you said that I was stealing people, did you see that? Do you have evidence? When is the time? Where was the place?
Also, how did you know I had silver on me? You followed me, I never would have thought that Grandmother Mu Family would behave in such a way, it has truly broadened my horizons. "
"Nonsense! You little slut, you ate our Mu Family and drank our Mu Family. Now that you have the silver, don't you hurry up and respect our Mu Family and buy clothes for others? Are you trying to ascend to the heavens? Ah? "Let me tell you, I'm not dead yet. If you don't hand over the silver, I'll go to the yamen and report you for being unfilial and unfilial. I want to see what else you can do."
The reason was so that she could let Wanqing know how powerful she was. Only then would she be able to scare her, and that the women of this generation had a very important reputation, who knew that they would not be afraid at all, and that the questions that came up almost caused Old Mrs Mu and Madame Zhou to lose their conversation.
When she saw that the door could not be opened, she turned around to look at the villagers behind her and began to complain, "Aiya, look at this little b * tch, she's going to anger her to death with her own granny, she's really pissing me off. Why didn't she give me the money to use as a granny and even go buy bamboo forests?
Madame Wang was furious. She stepped forward to argue with Old Lady Mu but was stopped by Wanqing, preventing her from doing so.
"Grandmother Mu Family, could it be that you have forgotten that we have already split up? Oh no, it's your Mu Family that has sent me and my brother out. What qualifications do you have to control me now?
If you want to sue me, then hurry up. Do you need me to find someone to lend you a car? Auntie Zhou, why aren't you saying anything? Didn't your big brother tell you that I don't have any more silver with me? All the silver was used to buy the bamboo forest. Oh, right, you guys have another matter to attend to today, right? Do you want me to give you all the silver after I leave the bamboo forest? And then you and your big brother each took a half? "
Wanqing's casual words caused the Madame Zhou to be stunned and she subconsciously looked towards Zhou Dacheng who was standing behind him. Zhou Dacheng did not expect that his plan had actually been seen through by Wanqing, and although he looked somewhat hot on the surface, he could not say anything. If it was said, wouldn't that mean that he had really come up with such an idea?
Old lady Mu was furious when she heard Wanqing's words, but she had also put her heart into Wanqing's words. Therefore, she looked at Madame Zhou with a doubtful gaze, even though she had doubts in her heart, she still got the silver first, and would talk about other things when she returned home.
Many of the surrounding commoners didn't know about what happened yesterday, but after hearing from Wanqing, they did know about it. Amongst them, one of them said, "Old Mrs Mu, since you all cleansed this one from his property, then how am I going to live my life? This is all my business, so you don't have the qualifications to care about it. It's Wanqing who borrowed the silver, it's her fault, what does that have to do with you guys? "
"That's right, so it turns out that everyone knows what kind of days Wanqing was living in your house, and she still has the face to care about things like this?"
No matter what, Wanqing is still a person of Mu Family. With the blood of Mu Family on her body, even if she goes out to clean her body, with silver coins, shouldn't she be the first to show respect to her grandmother? This is filial piety, isn't it? " Zhou Dacheng could not listen to what the people beside him said. If he continued to speak like this, it would be extremely difficult for him to get his hands on the silver.
"Wanqing, what do you mean by that? Didn't your grandma worry that you'd be cheated? The words you said yesterday were all just words of anger, so don't take it to heart. Besides, even if you two siblings have separated, how can you not be filial? This will break your spine. Besides, if your grandmother comes to sue you at the yamen, then your reputation will be ruined. It will not be good for you in the future, won't it? "
It had to be said that Wanqing knew a bit about the laws of this era, and had to be said that this was thanks to the ancestors who said that she had an identity when she was free last night, so she knew about the laws of this world a few years ago. This allowed Wanqing, the little white girl, to understand more or less about the laws here, but Wanqing did not expect that the knowledge she had just gained last night would already be of use today.
"Uncle Zhou is really strange. Don't you know that our court is filial to our parents?" You said my parents are dead, so who am I going to show my filial piety to? Or could it be that Grandma Mu wants my parents to be filial and wants them to come up from below? " Wanqing said coldly.
Old Madam Mu was so angry that she wanted to step forward and beat him up, but because she couldn't enter the courtyard, she shouted loudly from the doorway, "You little slut, little slut!" Woman, are you cursing me to die? "Slut …"
"Who did the little bitch say?" Wanqing asked with a light smile.
"The little slut is talking about you!" Old Madam Mu replied.
Wanqing chuckled and did not speak anymore, but someone from the crowd reacted and started laughing loudly. After Madame Zhou reacted, she pointed at Wanqing, "Girl, what happened to you? Anyway, she's your grandmother, how can you be so disrespectful? "
"Great disrespect? When she wanted to beat me to death, when you didn't let me eat with Dou Dou for three or four days, when you forced me to work all the time, why didn't you think that I would be disrespectful?
Aren't you asking for it? Hmph, don't even mention the fact that we have already split up, and the agreement clearly states that from then on, we have nothing to do with Gramps's and Gramps's families, and even if we give you our surnames, you guys can't care about me at all. Even if I am still in Mu Family now, who do you think can do anything to me? " Wanqing's temper flared. She raised her leg and kicked the wooden stake at the front door into two.
Even though the wooden stake at the top of the door was not very thick, it was still like an adult man's arm. Forget about Wanqing who was a girl, even if a mature man wanted to kick the wooden stake into two, it was not an easy task, is it that easy for Wanqing to do it?
When the Madame Zhou and Old Lady Mu saw this, their hearts skipped a beat. This was obviously a switch.
The old lady was the first to react as she looked at Wanqing, and directly pointed at her nose, "You, you definitely aren't clean, you definitely aren't clean. Fellow villagers, she is a demon woman, a demon woman!
"Hmph, you keep saying that I am a demoness, a slut, a prostitute. "Woman, I'd like to know if you can report this personal attack without any reason."
