Wanqing did not want to bother with him, so early in the morning, the workers who were cleaning up the remaining tasks left one after another, in a hurry, they forgot to bring their things and quickly returned to look, "Miss, we forgot to bring our things."
Wanqing nodded her head, but Mo Yichen did not know that the other party was holding onto the thing she was sitting on, and was smiling lightly as she looked at the person slowly walking towards him.
"Sir, I wonder if you could get up?" Wait till we take the things away, then you can sit down? "
The worker's words were hilarious. If he took away this thing, how could he sit down? Sit there? Did he have to sit on the ground? Mo Yichen frowned as he looked at the worker. After a while, he stood up and said, "Alright, you can take it."
Wanqing looked at Mo Yichen coldly, then turned and left. She still had something important to do today, so she did not have time to waste on this bored person.
Looking at Wanqing's leaving figure, Mo Yichen chased after him with his long legs. "What are you eating this morning?"
Without the skin on the tree, one would die without a doubt, and without a face, one would be invincible. Wanqing never would have thought that this person would be shameless to such an extent, Wanqing turned her head and glanced coldly at Mo Yichen, but saw a face with a light smile, and was not embarrassed at all.
"Don't you have a home? Aren't you going home? " Wanqing was truly curious, how could this person not return home everyday? Did this person not have a home?
Mo Yichen shook his head, an idea suddenly popped up in his mind, and he said to Wanqing in a serious tone, "I really don't have a family, and originally, I had a happy family, but I am also the youngest in the family, so the battles between families were too severe. Actually, I did not compete, and was eliminated by the family, and the only reason I saved you that day was because I was framed by the family brothers, and my body was extremely poisonous.
Hearing Mo Yichen's words, Wanqing did not really believe him, but what she said was not necessarily false. It turns out that she really liked watching ancient costume television dramas, novels, etc.
When she thought of this, Wanqing suddenly turned around and looked at Mo Yichen with an probing gaze. "You, can't be someone from the imperial family, right?"
Wanqing's question caused Mo Yichen's heart to skip a beat. She was even more certain that Wanqing was definitely not an ordinary person, otherwise she definitely wouldn't have been able to tell that she was someone from the imperial family.
But thinking about it, Mo Yichen did not admit to his identity. Instead, he looked at Wanqing in shock and said, "What did you say? "Who am I?"
However, the expression on Mo Yichen's face didn't seem to be fake at all. Wanqing naturally couldn't tell that this person was out of place, and felt that she was overthinking things when she saw Mo Yichen's astonished face.
"Oh, I'm fine. I was thinking too much. I had chicken porridge this morning." Wanqing continued to walk after she finished speaking. Mo Yichen followed behind Wanqing, while Liu Xing did not tightly lock his eyes at Mo Yichen's back. He kept having the feeling that something was off about this person, but he was unable to pinpoint what was off.
Mo Yichen drank two more bowls of porridge than usual. Wanqing and Liu Yue both drank one bowl of porridge each, and even had to eat a lot of beans. On the other hand, Liu Xing drank three bowls of porridge, showing just how delicious the chicken porridge was.
Compared to the comfort of the courtyard, the yamen in the town was not as comfortable. Old Madam Mu and Huan Niang were forced to kneel in the hall while being slapped on the table. The old granny was hit on the floor ten times, while the Huan Niang was hit on the wall twenty times.
The county magistrate was livid with anger. If not for the fact that the people below him were just commoners and didn't have any big faults, he definitely wouldn't have let them off so easily.
"Hmph, if you two still dare to do this to me after the end of the next term, I'll let you two do a proper reflection in the dungeon."
The county magistrate's words made Old Man Mu afraid. At this moment, his heart was no longer in pain.
The Huan Niang did not expect that she would be fooled by her own family. What contract did Wanqing have, people who went out to clean themselves were not supposed to support old people, furthermore, their parents were no longer around, even if they wanted to raise them, they would not be able to.
Now that he had suffered a setback instead of seeking for more benefits, he had to make things clear to his sister.
The old lady endured the pain and kowtowed as she admitted her mistake. "It was this old woman's fault. This old woman doesn't know. I'm sorry, but we don't want to go to jail. Please forgive us, old master!"
"Scram, get out of here. Don't let me see you again. Seriously, I haven't had a good night's sleep this entire time. I've been forcefully disturbed by you two." After the county magistrate finished speaking, he knocked on the wooden door and left.
After Head Constable Zhang and the rest saw the county magistrate off, they turned around and looked coldly at Old Madam Mu and Mu. "You two old women have caused us brothers to run into the mountain valleys early in the morning. If there really is something wrong, it's fine, but in the end, it's you two who keep our brothers here to play with.
"What, what should we do?" Old Madam Mu was a little confused as she looked at Head Constable Zhang with fear.
Huan Niang was young after all, and had lived in the town before, so she naturally knew what they meant. She slowly moved to the old lady's side and said softly, "Mother, didn't you bring a silver tael with you when you left today? We will take the silver and give it to the Duke, otherwise we won't be able to return today. "
When Old Madam Mu heard this, she was so angry that she almost exploded on the spot. But look at this place, she didn't dare, and raised her head to look at the Head Constable Zhang in such a fierce manner, she really could only spend money to get out of this predicament. It had to be known that most of these people had never entered the county magistrate court from birth to death. The reason she was here today was all the fault of the Huan Niang.
"Your Lordship, Your Lordship, I … I don't have silver. This woman has silver on her. Let her pay, let her pay!"
Huan Niang never thought that the old lady would actually say such words. He was so angry that his whole body felt uncomfortable, it was more painful than being beaten up.
"Mother, ever since I married the sea, I've never had a good day. Where did I get this silver from?" Mother, are you saying this to force me to my death? " The Huan Niang cried.
The Head Constable Zhang snorted loudly, "Hmph, what do you think our yamen is? "If you don't want to go to prison, then hurry up. This will give you all a memory boost, so that you will know what to do and what not to do."
How could a man who couldn't even bear to take a tael of silver put it somewhere in his house to let a girl know about it? This person must have been lying. He pitied all of them for not having realized it at the beginning and for not making a trip here in vain. If it wasn't for the 10 taels of silver that girl had given them, they wouldn't have left so easily today.
The Old Granny had no choice. After glaring at Huan Niang, she unwillingly took out a silver from her bosom. The silver was like a piece of flesh in her heart, it hurt so much.
After leaving the county magistrate, the two of them had no choice but to support each other as they went to the infirmary to treat the injuries behind them before riding back home in the ox-cart. Along the way, the old lady had scolded Huan Niang quite often, and whatever it was, Huan Niang was in the wrong.
When they reached home, Madame Zhou saw that both of them were injured and frowned, "Mother, Sister-in-law, what happened to you two?"
"What's wrong? If it wasn't for her bullshit state law, would I have lost a silver coin and gotten ten planks? From today onwards, Madame Zhou will not do housework for half a year and will let her do it. If she fails to do so, I will divorce her in place of my son and let Hai Yang marry a virtuous and virtuous woman back. "
After saying this, the Old Granny turned and limped back to her room, leaving Huan Niang and Madame Zhou standing there, staring at each other.
He said to Huan Niang with a smile, "I say, sister-in-law, this is what mother told you to do, not what I told you to do. Then, this early in the morning, the chickens haven't been fed, and the pigweed hasn't been beaten yet.
After Madame Zhou finished speaking, she turned around proudly and left. She then said that she was right that she did not follow these two people to the magistrate court in the morning.
The news of Old Madam Mu and Huan Niang being beaten up in the County Magistrate's Office quickly spread to the entire Anyi Village. They really had to admire these women's words; they were even more arrogant than the radio.
She had already asked Liu Xing about it, but the two of them had never heard of what this bean sprout was before. Furthermore, they did not even like to eat beans, as most people would feed their chickens and ducks under proper conditions.
As long as she could master the temperature of the water well and not see the light of day, she would be able to grow very delicious bean sprouts. Wanqing had only started experimenting today and it would take a while before she could see the finished product.
This tofu was a good thing, no matter what, it was always delicious. However, it was not easy to make tofu, so Wanqing wanted to teach this method to the people of the Sixth Granduncle family to make it, and in the early stages, she helped open the market, and after that, the people of Sixth Granduncle would have to sell the tofu themselves.
"Miss, something happened …" Liu Yue's voice came out from outside the door in surprise.
Wanqing's hands stopped moving and she quickly came out to see. "What's wrong? What happened? "
"About that, something happened to the Mu Family. I heard that old lady Mu and that Huan Niang were beaten up." Liu Yue said anxiously, and there was even a smile in her eyes.
After Wanqing heard this, she did not dare believe it. After all, they were not allowed to report this, but they shouldn't have suffered so much from a beating, right?
However, that person was the original owner's grandmother. Since she was beaten up and bedridden, it was reasonable for him to go and have a look. However, what would happen if he did go? How would those people deal with him?
Wanqing really wanted to leave so much that she wouldn't have to look at the Mu Family people swaying in front of her eyes anymore. But for Dou Dou's sake, she couldn't.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Liu Yue frowned and asked.
Wanqing thought for a while, then turned her head to look at Liu Yue and asked seriously, "Tell me, should I go and see the old lady?"
