The evil sister is in charge, and the mother is getting married

Chapter 25 Two Little Mice
Sheng Dashan was so angry that he gasped for breath and broke the broom in his hand. During his slack season, he went to work for the wealthy families in the town. Except for the silver he handed over, he gave the rest to Liu Juan.

He estimated that he should have more than two taels of silver, but now there is only one tael left, and it was all given by Liu Juan to support her younger brother from her natal family.

Before, he looked down on his second son's wife and despised her for being close to her parents. Now, his own wife is no better.

The second son's wife was at least exposed, and she didn't dare to resist after being suppressed by Mrs. Sheng.

The one in his family is so good, doing small things under his nose, and looking down on others on the surface. Isn’t he also close to his mother’s family?
"Boss, I have my own reasons. My nephew is sick and has come to me for help. I can't do anything about it."

"I can't just watch my nephew die of illness!" Liu Juan sat on the ground with her whole face swollen, which showed how badly she had been beaten.

"Then you can just watch your daughter die?"

"I won't waste my time talking to you, a spendthrift woman. I'm going to the clinic to pay the money now. If I don't see you when I come back, you have to pay me back."

"I'll just divorce you and tell you to go back to where you came from!"

Sheng Dashan left angrily, leaving Liu Juan sitting on the ground, covering her face and crying bitterly.

Now the family is really penniless. Why didn’t this damn Sheng Zhaodi just get bitten to death by a wild boar? It cost ten taels of silver!

And there’s that damn Sheng Wanqiu, she’s so rich, what’s wrong with giving her family some money!
And that old guy, his heart is in my armpits!
Sheng Wanqiu didn't care about that and was already drinking tea in Xinglin Medical Clinic.

"Little aunt, there really is no more. This is a medicine shop, not a grain and oil shop. Where can I find seeds for you?"

Ding Dali's beard was so angry that it stood up. He had never seen such a shameless person since he became the shopkeeper.

As soon as he entered the door, he ate the fresh meat wontons he had just bought, and then used his teapot to brew his most precious tea.

After eating and drinking, he started looking for seeds. The watermelon seeds and carrot seeds he had obtained last time were from the gardener in the princess's mansion, and he really had none left now.

"Where did you get the seeds you gave me last time? Can you help me get some more?"

"If you help me find it, I'll give you a big gift!"

Sheng Wanqiu made the request with a smile while sipping tea in a nonchalant manner.

"A big gift? What big gift?" Ding Dali became excited when he heard it. He knew that this little girl must have something good in her hand.

"I won't tell you yet, but I promise that the value of this gift is no less than the ginseng I got before!"

Ding Dali immediately put on a flattering smile and came over to pour her tea attentively.

"May I ask what kind of seeds you want, young lady? I will do my best!"

Sheng Wanqiu glanced at Ding Dali and said, "I still like the way you were so unruly just now!"

Ding Dali was embarrassed and his smile froze. He immediately became more attentive, serving tea and water like an old nanny.

"Anyway, I want any rare seeds I can get. It's up to you to decide!"

"As long as I get the seeds here, I'll send you a big gift over there!"

Sheng Wanqiu smiled like a cunning little fox with her eyes curved.

"Okay! Come over in three days, and I'll definitely get you the seeds!" Ding Dali promised, patting his chest. Sheng Wanqiu was satisfied and left with the bamboo basket.

As soon as she left, Ding Dali immediately wrote a letter, not knowing what he wrote. He grabbed a pigeon from the cage in the backyard and tied the letter directly to its leg.

Sheng Wanqiu came to the grain and oil shop and found the waiter to ask if there were any seeds of grain or fruits and vegetables. He actually found seeds of several plants for her, but they were all ordinary seeds, such as cabbage, cucumber, pumpkin, and green onion. But it was better than nothing, so she spent one penny of silver to buy them directly.

After leaving the grain and oil store, she went straight to the government office. She came there to stamp the deed so that it would take effect.

She understood that it would be better for the county magistrate to take charge of this matter, so when she arrived at the yamen, she pried open the mouth of the gatekeeper with a string of copper coins, and then he took her directly to find the yamen's legal advisor, who specialized in stamping documents like this.

Money makes the world go round. Looking at the red envelopes that were given out, the sullen-faced lawyer forced himself to smile. He didn't even wait in line and stamped the two deeds directly with a click.

The gatekeeper personally escorted Sheng Wanqiu out the door. He was very polite and did not act arrogantly like he usually did when seeing ordinary people. His attitude was very good.

"elder sister!"

Sheng Wanqiu was strolling on the street when she heard someone calling her. When she turned around, she saw the little beggar who had led her last time.

"It is you!"

Sheng Wanqiu walked up with a smile and touched the little beggar's head with her hand, without any expression of disgust.

Looking at the little beggar's face which seemed to have become thinner, Sheng Wanqiu felt a little bit sorry for him. Although she was not a good person, she still had a bit of humanity in her.

"Are you hungry? Let's go! Sister will take you to eat something delicious!"

The little beggar shook his head first, then moved closer to her and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Sister, there are two people behind you. They have been following you since you entered the city. You have to be careful!"

Then the little beggar ran away quickly after saying this.

Sheng Wanqiu pretended to squat down to adjust the hem of her skirt, and glanced back, and sure enough, there were two sneaky people behind her.

Damn!

When did her vigilance become so low? It turned out that people cannot let their guard down. She thought that since there were no zombies in this era, there was no need to be on edge all the time. She didn't expect that there would be scum in every era.

If the little beggar hadn't reminded him, he might have been killed by the other party unexpectedly.

It seems that wealth really should not be exposed. It's only thirty taels and this is it. If people knew she had four thousand taels, they would have carried her and her bed away overnight!
If the tiger doesn't show its power, you think it's suffering from plague, right?

Okay, okay, let these bastards die today!
Then Sheng Wanqiu pretended to go shopping, looking here and tasting there, and basically went around every shop. Of course, she also bought a lot of small things, which were all put in the bamboo basket she was carrying.

"Damn, how can this little girl be so good at shopping!
"My legs are sore from walking so much, how long is she going to keep walking?"

The young man in gray clothes with a very wretched appearance cursed, his eyes fixed on Sheng Wanqiu who was chewing a candied haws in front of him.

"Why rush? As soon as we see her enter the alley, we'll take action!"

Said the older, dark-faced man in blue clothes. He looked determined to win, with a greedy smile on his face.
