Chapter 198 I'm Not Afraid As Long As I Can Save People
"You go." Nanny Xu turned to look at Liu. How could Liu not know what was in Tan's mind? She told Nanny Xu to go and come back quickly.
This made Mrs. Tan very angry. It seemed that after all her hard work, she had achieved nothing.
"Mother," Xia Weiwei woke up and opened her eyes, she saw Liu sitting on the bed and looking at her. She was startled and quickly lifted the quilt to see herself inside. She breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Yang Biao helped her put on her clothes.
"Daughter, you must be hungry. Get up and wash up, and have breakfast with your mother." Liu pulled her up, combed her hair herself, and after she had done her makeup, she took her hand to go to eat.
"The wontons are so delicious, daughter. Let's make them again next time." Mrs. Liu saw that she was eating with relish, probably because she was in a good mood, so she wanted to roll out the dough again next time.
"Yeah, okay." After finishing the wontons, Xia Weiwei put down the spoon in her hand. Maybe because she went to bed late last night and was still a little sleepy, she saw two beautiful stranger girls coming over, each holding a cup of tea.
"Madam, please have some tea!" The two girls knelt down in front of her and held the tea in their hands above their heads.
"Well," Xia Weiwei was a little confused and didn't think too much about it. She stretched out her hands to take it, but she felt something strange in an instant. She stood up in shock and turned to look at Liu who was sitting next to her.
"Oh, you have already accepted their tea." Liu felt a little guilty. She stood up and walked slowly over to take the two cups of tea from her hand, then handed them to Aunt Xu and gave her a wink.
"Daughter, let's go out for a walk while the weather is cool. Mother has lived in the capital for so many days and has never gone out for a walk. Please accompany mother." Liu pulled her, who was standing there in a daze, and ordered the servants to prepare the carriage.
Yang Biao said that a woman will become stupid for three years after pregnancy. He must be referring to himself. Xia Weiwei watched the two girls go out with Aunt Xu and felt extremely regretful. She didn't even notice such an obvious ritual of the concubine offering tea to the mistress.
"Ah, about this... Weiwei... does she know about it?" Yang Biao was in another small courtyard of Xia Yuxuan, receiving guidance on writing from him while he was on vacation at home. At this time, Aunt Xu came in with two girls, saying that they were the two concubines Xia Weiwei had given him.
"The young lady knows about this. They have already offered her tea this morning." But the young lady did not drink the tea, and he could not let her know this.
"Okay, you two come with me," Yang Biao was angry. Okay, Xia Weiwei, you are so abominable. You didn't even ask me what I thought and just let people in.
"Madam Xu, what's going on?" Xia Yuxuan looked at Yang Biao who left in anger, frowned and asked Madam Xu whose idea it was.
"Last night, the son-in-law went to see the young lady. The lady was angry, so she gave the son-in-law two concubines." Aunt Xu told him the truth and told him what happened this morning. She also felt that Yang Biao was not worthy of her young lady.
The family backgrounds of Yang Biao, the farm boy, and the young lady are very different. They come from different social classes and have different living habits, ways of thinking and values.
"Oh," Mother, please don't be too much of a spoiled child. Be careful not to upset your sister. Her feelings for Yang Biao are deeper than you think. Xia Yuxuan sighed in his heart. He could neither stop his mother from doing evil nor control his first wife's stupid behavior.
"We're here," Yang Biao brought the two girls to the seven-courtyard house that was being sold, only to see a group of people fighting at the door.
"Why don't you move away, huh?" Xie Junyong pulled the old woman's hair and was about to throw her to the ground while holding a child.
"Stop!" Yang Biao took action. It has been almost a month, why hasn't the old woman moved out yet?
"You bastard, it's you again." Seeing that Yang Biao was meddling in other people's business again, Xie Junyong asked his men to go over.
"You can't interfere in my business." Today, I will make you half dead and lie on the bed regretting it for the rest of your life.
"Ah!" The men brought by Xie Junyong were all highly skilled in martial arts, but they were completely vulnerable in front of the Guan Ge guards who were picked from thousands of people.
"Lu Gang, each of you will have to cripple a hand." In order to avoid bullying in the future, Yang Biao led the two girls into the courtyard.
"You two should find a courtyard to live in first." What kind of family would be willing to let their children become concubines? The two girls didn't look pale and skinny, so they shouldn't be children from poor families.
"Young master, please help me!" The old woman saw that his men easily injured Xie Junyong and his men, so she placed her hope on Yang Biao.
"Old lady, please stand up and talk first!" Yang Biao hurriedly helped her up. She was so old that she had to kneel down and he would kill her.
It turned out that Xie Junyong was the grandson of Duke Anguo. He had his eyes on what the old woman had in her hands, namely the Shao family's mountains and forests, and wanted to snatch them away. So he colluded with the Jingzhao Yin to throw all the men of the Shao family into jail on false charges, in an attempt to force the women to hand over their ancestral property.
"Master, please, my child is running a fever in prison and his life is hanging by a thread." She used the money from selling her ancestral property to bribe the officials, but no one found a doctor for her son.
"Old man, are you afraid of being beaten?" Yang Biao was unfamiliar with the capital and felt that he had to find someone who had a say in this matter. However, when the common people beat drums to complain to officials, they would first be beaten with forty sticks, but they would not have to roll iron nails.
"As long as I can save people, I'm not afraid." She wasn't afraid of death, so how could she be afraid of being beaten? They had thought about beating the drum to complain before, but they couldn't get close to the drum.
"In that case, you should take some medicine first." Yang Biao gave her some pills to strengthen her body and then took her to the gate of the imperial palace.
The old woman glanced at Yang Biao, resolutely took the drumstick beside the drum, and beat the Dengwen drum vigorously.
"Who is beating the drum?" An official from Dengwen Drum Court came out with a group of soldiers to check who was beating the drum to complain. The emperor who lived in the palace would also hear the drum sound. The officials in Dengwen Drum Court would immediately summon the person beating the drum to complain to the court. They had to find out the facts as soon as possible and give the emperor an answer.
"Let's go find Jiang Sheng." He used to be the best detective in the capital, and he knew everything about the people and things in the capital's prison. Sending him to do things would often achieve twice the result with half the effort.
"Master, I have asked a doctor to treat Shao Ruocheng, and his fever has subsided." After everything was settled, Jiang Sheng came back to report.
"Is this Duke of Anguo very powerful?" He actually allowed Xie Junyong to use his power to seize other people's property. It seems that this Duke of Anguo is not that great.
"The current Duke of Anguo, Xie Jingyuan, has inherited the title for three generations of meritorious service, and has many followers in the court." This person is not easy to deal with. Even if the Shao family wins the lawsuit, Emperor Tianqi may only give a symbolic fine on his salary, which is a minor punishment that does not hurt his body.
"Oh, you should keep a close eye on this matter. You can book an inn for the women to stay in." There is no such thing as a thief who can thieve for a thousand days. Yang Biao thought it would be better to move the people as soon as possible to prevent the Duke of Anguo from sending people to harass them again.
"Yes, master!" Jiang Sheng agreed, walked out of the house and stretched out his arms. Xie Jingyuan, you didn't expect that I, Jiang Sheng, would come back again!
