Before the house was raided, the maidservant of the Prime Minister's residence absconded with t

Tao'er has almost sold out of wild boar meat, and there's still a bit of a gamey smell in the yard.

As she was counting her coins, four or five people swarmed in through the door. The one leading them, dressed in fine clothes, was none other than Li Yulong, the eldest son of the Li family.

Before the villagers could disperse, they saw them coming and instinctively shrank back, making way for them.

In their eyes, this house was still the property of the Li family. The eldest son of the Li family was notorious in Xinghua Village for his viciousness and domineering nature, and no one dared to provoke him.

Tao'er glanced up and immediately recognized the bastard.

She had only seen him once, but some people's true colors can be seen once and forgotten, especially since she had almost photographic memory ever since she drank the spiritual spring water.

She frowned slightly, not in a hurry to speak.

Li Yulong, however, was quite unceremonious. He sat down on the stone bench, crossed his legs, and stuck his neck out, looking just like a rooster that had won a fight.

The lackeys he brought quickly poured him tea.

There was tea ready on the stone table.

Tao'er was about to have Qingge take the tea away, not letting that bastard drink it.

Fortunately, he didn't like it and refused to drink it, saying that there was nothing good about farmhouse tea.

Tao thought to herself: What an idiot!

He doesn't even care for something that's priceless!

Li Yulong's lewd eyes swept over Tao'er: This slut seems even more beautiful than last time!

But first, she has to suffer a bit; she really got him into trouble last time.

He tapped his fingers on the table a few times before speaking, "Liu Tao'er, I order your whole family to move out right now!"

You have one hour!

Tao'er put down the copper coin in her hand, smiled, and asked, "Young Master Li, on what grounds do you expect us to move out?"

"On what grounds?"

Li Yulong chuckled as if he'd heard the biggest joke in the world, "This house belongs to the Li family, and I'm not renting it out anymore."

"If you know what's good for you, move out now. If you don't, I'll smash your things and take you to the authorities to sue you for illegally occupying a private residence."

An elderly villager nearby, unable to bear the sight, muttered, "Young Master Li, Master Li clearly rented the house to Tao'er, so why is he..."

"That's right, this house is haunted, no one dares to live here."

If it weren't for Peach Girl's innate good fortune, turning this haunted house into a blessed one...

We don't dare go into this house!

"Young Master Li is trying to kick us while we're down!"

That's outrageous!

"They probably think the rent is too low and have changed their minds!"

Li Yulong glared and said, "My father isn't here, so I'm the one who calls the shots!"

"I said I wouldn't rent this house, and that's final. Anyone who tries to stop me is going against the Li family!"

The guards and servants behind him stood forward, their faces contorted with stern expressions.

The villagers looked at each other and fell silent.

They watched Li Yulong grow up, knew what kind of person he was, and knew that the people he brought with him were no good either.

They were just ordinary people and dared not offend the Li family.

Everyone started to worry about Peach Girl's family.

Tao'er calmly picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip.

After Li Yulong finished speaking, she slowly said, "Young Master Li, this house no longer belongs to your Li family."

So the one who needs to get out is you, not our whole family.

Li Yulong was visibly taken aback: "What did you say?"

"I said..." Tao'er said, enunciating each word clearly, "This house now belongs to the Liu family, to me, Liu Tao'er, not to your Li family, do you understand?"

There was a moment of silence in the courtyard, then Li Yulong burst into laughter, laughing so hard he was doubled over: "You? You, a village girl who sells wild boar meat, can afford this house?"

Do you know how much this house is worth?

More than one hundred taels of silver!

What will you use to buy it?

Tao'er didn't respond to him. She took out a piece of paper from her bosom and put it on the table.

"Li Yulong, open your dog eyes wide and see clearly what this is."

It was a house purchase document, with neat handwriting, a bright red handprint at the end, and an official vermilion deed stamped next to it.

Li Yulong's laughter stopped abruptly.

He leaned closer for a couple of glances, and his expression changed.

No matter how much of a scoundrel or how useless he is, he can still tell the difference between genuine and fake items.

He recognized the handprint; it belonged to his father.

He recognized the red contract and the official seal.

But he wouldn't admit it.

"Fake!"

He grabbed the document and held it tightly in his hand. "Where did you get this fake document?"

You...you've forged this!"

Qingge stood to the side, not saying a word. She took a step forward, and without any apparent effort, she flicked her wrist and sent Li Yulong flying backward before he could react, landing on his bottom with a thud.

The document slipped from his hand and floated lightly to the ground.

Tao'er walked over and picked it up, blew off the dust, and without even looking at him, just smiled and said, "Fool!"

So what if you tear this up?

The government has one copy, and your father has another.

How much can you destroy?

Li Yulong got up from the ground, his face flushed red, still shouting, "Forgery!"

You're a fake!

You even bribed the government officials!

He got more and more excited as he talked, as if as long as his voice was loud enough, the false could become the true.

The villagers around them began to whisper among themselves; some believed Tao'er's words, while others remained hesitant.

Li Yulong's servants took another step forward.

Just then, two people entered through the courtyard gate.

Leading the way was village head Chen Shuigen, followed by Tao'er's older brother Liu Tiezhu.

Chen Shuigen stood in the courtyard, cleared his throat, and spoke in a voice that was not loud but loud enough for everyone to hear: "I can testify for Tao Yatou."

I was there on the day the house was bought; I was the middleman. It was all clearly written in the documents, and the fingerprint was put on by Mr. Li himself.

This house was bought by Tao Yatou.

The reason she said it was rented before was because this girl didn't want jealous people to cause trouble.

The testimony of village head Chen Shuigen is sufficient to prove that what Tao'er said is true.

The villagers were in an uproar, and they all started criticizing Li Yulong.

The two brothers from the Liu family also squeezed to the front and shouted at Li Yulong, "Get out!"

This is no longer your home!

Don't cause trouble in my house!

Enraged, Li Yulong no longer cared about his dignity and waved his hand at the servants behind him: "What are you all standing there for?"

Bring it on!

"If you kill him, it's on me!"

The servants had just rolled up their sleeves and taken two steps forward when two more people entered through the courtyard gate.

Walking in front was a middle-aged man dressed in a silk robe, with a somber expression; it was none other than Li the Rich Man himself.

Behind him followed a young man, Li Chenhao, the second son of the Li family, whose handsome face remained calm.

Li the rich man walked up to Li Yulong in a few steps, and without saying a word, he raised his hand and slapped him twice.

With a sharp, crisp crack, half of Li Yulong's face immediately turned red.

Before he could react, Li the rich man kicked him in the back of the knee, forcing him to kneel on one knee.

Upon seeing that it was the head of the family, the servants who had been baring their teeth and brandishing their weapons all cowered in fear, kneeling in a row with their heads bowed low, not daring to utter a sound.
