"Auntie, are you alright?" A servant who had just received a number and was about to go back to announce the good news passed by and pointed inside. "This is the shop opened by Princess Jingling, and it's also under the personal order of the current emperor. You're causing trouble here. I'm afraid you're not in your right mind!"
"Get lost! You little brat, who are you calling insane?"
The old woman howled a few words with great force, and her throat was hurting. When she was spoken to like that, she became extremely angry and spat at the boy.
"Eh!" The servant took a step back. "You old hag, how disgusting! You won't listen to my kind advice. Just wait for disaster to come!"
After saying this, the servant turned and ran away.
Seeing this, the others were worried that the old woman would come and try to scam them, so they quickly moved to the side, trying to stay as far away from her as possible.
"Auntie, what's wrong with you?"
When the shopkeeper, Mrs. Qiao, heard the waiter say that there was a disturbance outside, she thought that the princess was still having her meal upstairs and was afraid that it would disturb everyone's interest, so she hurried out to drive the troublemaker away.
When they came out, they saw an old man and an old woman, both sitting on the ground with their legs open. The old woman kept cursing the princess.
When Qiao heard this, she guessed that this person might have come here on purpose to cause trouble.
"Auntie, what's the matter? Please tell me. I'm the owner of this herbal medicine shop. If you two are hungry, I can ask someone to make you something to eat."
"Pooh!"
Old Lady Cao tugged at Mrs. Qiao and cursed, "You're sending beggars! I'm telling you, we're Jiang Li's maternal family. If you were the shopkeeper, you'd better tell your boss to come out and meet us!"
"And they even gave me an audience! Hahahaha... They really think they're important people."
"Yes, in my opinion, it must be a poor relative of Jiang Li's family. It's their first time in the capital and they want to come here to ask for money!"
"That's right. If you really want to extort money, you should behave properly. If you don't know, you might think you are the ancestor of the Jiang family!"
“…”
When the people in the queue heard this, they started talking one after another, making the old couple very angry.
“Ouch, ouch!”
Old Lady Cao clutched her chest and pointed at Mrs. Qiao, saying, "Did you hear me? Hurry and get Jiang Li to come out and see us. Otherwise, we'll both die here today!"
I originally planned to have the waiter take the person to the backyard directly, and then invite the princess after asking everything clearly.
Unexpectedly, these two people clearly wanted to blackmail people. Worried that they could really do something, Qiao had no choice but to go to the second floor and report the matter to Jiang Li.
"What? Someone from my grandparents' family is coming? How come I didn't know someone from my grandparents' family was coming over today?"
Jiang Mubai was startled when he heard the voice. Xue Rou glared at him. She knew with her toes that it must be Jiang Sheng's side. Xue Rou frowned and was about to stand up, "I'll go with you."
"fine."
Jiang Li smiled at Xue Rou and said, "You guys have your meal first. I'll go down and see what's going on."
She said that the herbal medicine shop opened today, but except for the sudden appearance of Princess Jingyi, no one came to cause trouble. This is not the style of the Qin family.
Jiang Li did not forget that the Third Prince was under house arrest because of her. Since Qin Ji was the Third Prince's man, he would definitely find a way to cause trouble for her.
"Who are you?"
Mrs. Qiao pointed to the old couple lying on the ground outside the door. Jiang Li had no impression of them. Bai Zhi stepped forward to ask first, and saw the old woman rushing towards her.
Seeing this, Mo Qi jumped forward and grabbed Mrs. Cao by the back of her neck.
Old Mrs. Cao was already prepared. The man told her that if any guard dared to rush out and hit her when she was about to take action, she would take the opportunity to pretend to be dead and let Jiang Li pay the price.
Unexpectedly, the guard grabbed her collar and made it impossible for her to move forward or backward.
"Mo Qi, let go."
Jiang Li was interrupted just as she began to speak. The old woman pointed at Bai Zhi and cried, "You unfilial son! You made a fortune in the capital, and rose from humble beginnings to become a high-ranking official. And yet you don't care about me and your grandfather anymore, do you?! If your mother's spirit knew, she would appear in your dreams every day, cursing at you, your unfilial daughter!"
With a series of clicks, not only Bai Zhi but even the people around her were stunned by her.
Seeing Bai Zhi's face turn pale, Old Lady Cao felt that she had the upper hand. She quickly pulled her husband and said to Bai Zhi, "When your mother wanted to come to the capital, it was your grandfather who sold everything he had and worked like a slave for others to raise the money. Now that your mother is dead and you have stayed in the capital to live a good life, you don't care about us old couple anymore, do you?!"
"Uncle, Madam, did you find the wrong person?"
Seeing that Bai Zhi was about to cry because of the scolding, Jiang Li interrupted the old woman.
Old Lady Cao glanced at Jiang Li and saw that she was pretty, so her voice softened.
"Young lady, you don't know. We old couple came to the capital begging for food all the way to find our daughter's posthumous child. We only found out after asking around that this girl had become a princess! You said we were worried that she wouldn't have enough to eat or drink, but now she's become a princess, and she didn't even bother to take me and her grandfather to be filial to her! In my opinion, such an unfilial person should be sentenced to death by the emperor!"
"presumptuous!"
Seeing that the old woman was getting more and more outrageous, Mo Qi shouted loudly, which frightened Old Lady Cao.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Li said with a smile, "In that case, the person you should look for is me. Bai Zhi, come here, look how scared you are."
Hearing Jiang Li say this, Old Lady Cao opened her mouth for a moment but no sound came out.
The onlookers chuckled, realizing that the two men were deliberately causing trouble.
Someone else suggested, "Princess, please stop wasting your time here. If it were you, I'd just send someone from the government office to arrest these two. They dare to pretend to be royal relatives, they probably don't want to live anymore."
