My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker!

chapter-1419
She had originally thought that as long as she wept in front of Wei Mingli, then Wei Mingli would definitely take her in on account of her being her own grandmother.
Yet who would’ve expected!!
Wei Mingli actually slapped her in public! Was this how a granddaughter was supposed to act?
Granny Niu immediately keeled to the ground and proceeded to act like a shrew, bawling out loud shamelessly, “My granddaughter is unfilial! My granddaughter has hit her grandmother!”
When the peanut gallery saw that there was a new drama to watch, they immediately crowded over and started pointing fingers at Wei Mingli and Granny Niu.Wei Mingli did not get angry and instead tittered at Granny Niu, who was on the floor, before speaking nonchalantly, “Do you people think that I, as the daughter of an official’s family, has this oaf for my grandmother?”
“My father, Wei Zhong, is a second-rank royal physician of the Royal Physician Building. His medical skills are known far and wide. My grandmother is naturally living in ease and comfort at home right now. How could she be like this old woman and be rolling about on the ground, making an unreasonable scene on the street?” Wei Mingli harrumphed before sweeping Granny Niu a contemptuous glance. “Hurry up and drag away this ridiculous person.”
Two boy servants promptly ran out from behind Wei Mingli and fiercely grabbed Granny Niu, who was still making a scene, to drag her away.
However, Granny Niu latched onto the shaft of the carriage as if her life depended on it and screeched, “Someone’s out to kill! My granddaughter is killing her grandmother! Ahhh!”
“Mother-in-Law, Mother-in-Law!” Madam née Bo, who had been hiding amidst the crowd, gauged that the time was ripe and immediately bolted out. She supported her old mother-in-law and promptly started scolding Wei Mingli, “Mingli ah, you should not be doing this. If even you have risen meteorically after getting adopted, you cannot forget that your birth grandmother is still living in the abyss of suffering!”
Wei Mingli started cackling. “Then what do you think I should do?”
“Of course you should…” Before Madam née Bo could make any inordinate demands, Wei Mingli spat coldly, “What are you still standing there for, hurry up and drive these two village women away!”“Go, go, go away.” Several more boy servants immediately came out from the Fortune Pavilion and drove away the incessantly bawling and screaming Madam née Niu and Madam née Bo.
“Leave!”
“Don’t, don’t drive us away! Mingli ah! Mingli!” The weeping got more and more distant. Wei Mingli immediately dropped the curtain after boarding the carriage, and she waved her hand in annoyance. “Go, proceed as planned.”
Those two incompetent fools—dying in an alleyway and getting fed to the dogs served them right.
On the other end, it was shortly after Madam née Niu and Madam née Bo got beaten up by the boy servant after they were driven away. Not only were they unable to gain anything, their bodies also hurt from the beating.
The duo scolded Wei Mingli for being unfilial while walking. When they thought of how they two were all that was left of their family, they couldn’t help but look at each other in melancholy.
“Mother-in-Law, I feel that we should still seek out Mingli. We will only have hope if we tag along with her.” Just now, they simply did not dare to believe their eyes when they saw the splendidly dressed Wei Mingli.
Ever since their big family got driven out of the marquis’s estate with Elderly Lady Qiao, their luck turned for the worse day by day.
That was why when they saw that Wei Mingli, who had gone missing for nearly half a year, had suddenly become so rich, they simply couldn’t believe their eyes.
“Mingli was so hardhearted. I can tell that she will not acknowledge us anymore,” Granny Niu lamented with a sigh.
“Then, then what should we do, Mother-in-Law.”
