Chapter 128
On both sides of the street, in addition to the hawkers who set up stalls to make a living, there are many young, old and young people squatting in a corner of the market, waiting to pick up some casual work, deliver letters, carry rice and run errands, everything that one expects to find.

However, the news of my grandfather and aunt's illness has spread in Qingshi Town. Although I don't know what the disease is, almost everyone agrees that it is contagious. Therefore, when the mistress went to the street to find someone to help, almost everyone shy away.

"A bunch of cowards who don't know how to make money if they have money, they deserve to die of poverty!"

The mistress covered her mouth and nose with her hands, and stood aside with a sullen expression on her face. She smelled sweat before she approached these stinky men, but she was afraid that she would get sick.

But I hate it, I don’t even dare to take this kind of serious job, for fear that I will get infected by accident, where can I find someone to help me?The mistress doesn't want to have any intimate contact with the aunt.

"Madam, looking for work? What do you think of me?"

An old man dressed as a homeless man proposed himself. Usually, he would not be able to compete with these young people for a job.What these young people are afraid to do right now is just their own opportunity.

The mistress frowned fiercely, she wasn't picking and choosing, this old man is not young, it's useless to hire him back if he doesn't move quickly...

"Don't look at my age, I'm so courageous, I dare to take on any job, I dare to do any job."

The old man patted his chest, the meaning of these words could not be more clear, he is not afraid of any infectious diseases.

It can't be seen that he still wants money and life, but after living like this for most of his life, it is indeed almost the end... The mistress reluctantly acted as a kind person for a while, and nodded slightly.

The old man followed the mistress back to the courtyard, and placed the aunt on the cart after repeated steps. The aunt was not half dead, and she cooperated with many movements in secret, saving the old man a lot of energy.

As for the small courtyard, Cheng Weiyao did not open a stall today for the first time, and has been waiting at home for someone from her grandfather's family to come and throw herself into the net. She guessed that Wang Basong's mouth was only a few days away.

"Sister-in-law, you urged me to study hard, do you want to take a break?"

Wen Chengming is caring, he obediently wants to pour a glass of water for Cheng Weiyao. In the past, his sister-in-law would set up a stall, and his elder sister or mother would accompany him to study.

This time, my sister-in-law finally had a break and took care of herself, which was really hard.

"I'm not tired, just read a book, don't worry about me."

Cheng Weiyao rubbed Wen Chengming's little head, but her mind was on her stall.

Although I didn't go there in person, the most important thing to do business is to persist. The imperial concubine took the initiative to ask Ying to take Wen Liyu to go. The tea eggs were all marinated the night before, so there is no need to worry.

But Roujiamo’s buns are generally made as you buy them. Although I baked some in advance, I’m afraid it’s still not enough based on previous sales.Even before departure, Cheng Weiyao had taught the imperial concubine how to make steamed buns, but she still couldn't sit still in her heart.

There was a rude knock on the door of the small courtyard, and Cheng Weiyao's eyes flickered. It must be someone from her grandfather's family. She quickly entered the role and opened the door with a casual and arrogant face.

"Knock what, someone dead at home? There are no rules at all..."

The mistress was waiting for Cheng Weiyao to open the door, and she felt a little uncomfortable when she heard the tone of criticizing Sang Huai, but considering that she would soon get rid of the mess of Auntie, she reluctantly endured it.

When Cheng Weiyao opened the door, she saw the face of the mistress covering her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and she couldn't hide her disgust. She raised her eyebrows and planned to close the courtyard door again with her arm.

The mistress was dumbfounded, isn't this Qingping Palace eagerly looking forward to the aunt coming back to live?Why did you deliver it to your door by yourself, and planned to close the door to thank you without even asking...

"Wait a minute, I sent someone here specially for you guys. Don't talk about good tea, at least I can't be so rude, right?"

The mistress held the courtyard door that was about to close with one hand, and her original high-ranking aura was unknowingly weakened by such a gag.

Seeing that there was no way to close the door, Cheng Weiyao simply leaned against the door and blocked the way in with her body. She glanced at the old man watching the theater and the aunt on the cart who was silent, and said coldly.

"I don't think your family is very reasonable? What I want is a living person, not a half-dead oil bottle. If you put a concubine's letter on a piece of paper and lose it, it will be a big trouble. Grandpa is indeed a good businessman!"

The mistress's nose was twisted by Cheng Weiyao's eloquent appearance, her eyes rolled and she had an idea in an instant.

"You're a junior, and your words are not condescending. I don't care about you. What about your old lady? My own mother is here. Is it possible that you can still refuse the door? It can be seen that this family relationship is very indifferent. If it spreads, it might be raising a white-eyed wolf." ..."

The mistress's calculations were clear, Cheng Weiyao, the married daughter-in-law, naturally had no feelings for her aunt, but to the imperial concubine, she was a blood relative, a biological mother.

The government has long established a law that stipulates that children should be filial to their parents. If a child refuses to support them, beats and insults the elderly, or even abandons the elderly when he is seriously ill and bedridden, he can sue the government and hand it over to the government for justice.

As for whether to tattoo the face or cut the nose after being caught, and parade it in the street, she can't control it.

"Sorry, I'm afraid your calculations will come to nothing. My mother is not in the mansion. I said it earlier last time. I want us to take my aunt to the mansion, and I have to bring the concubine's letter. What do you mean by visiting the door to force people? "

Although Cheng Weiyao didn't know much about the laws of this dynasty, in order to prevent being taken advantage of by her grandfather's family, she also read some of the current laws by herself while accompanying Wen Chengming to study.

According to the law, if a husband abuses a concubine and causes injury, the crime is reduced by two grades compared to injuring his wife. If a husband abuses a concubine to death, he will be punished with a penalty of [-] boards and be issued three years. If the mistress abuses a concubine, refer to the husband are treated in the same manner.

In other words, no matter how you look at it, the sentence is not serious. The aunt's status as a concubine will suffer, and the most urgent thing is to hold the concubine release letter in her hand.

"Of course I brought the concubine release letter, but I have something to say first, and there is no turning back when I start the bow. Since you have already asked for this person, you can't turn around and send it back to us!"

Seeing Cheng Weiyao's willingness to let go, disdain flashed in the eyes of the mistress.

No wonder Cheng Weiyao is so arrogant, it turns out that the monkey dominates because no one is around at home...
