Bai Lingyue didn't even dare to breathe, so she hurriedly got into the carriage and asked Xiao Taohong to return home quickly.
Not long after she left, the golden mask appeared at the door again. His eyes looked at the carriage going away and the blood on the ground. He didn't know what he was thinking.
Bai Lingyue returned to the house and hurried back to her small yard through the back door.
Although she is a martial arts practitioner, she has never killed anyone openly. She will still be scared when she sees so much blood.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Taohong didn't see the blood on the ground, but was pulled by the eldest lady and ran wildly for a while, a little confused.
"It's nothing. Today's things are done, so I'm a little excited."
Bai Lingyue gasped for air, not believing what she said.
Xiao Taohong didn't believe it either, but she didn't expose the young lady and just silently went to boil water for the young lady to wash up.
Bai Lingyue went to bed early.
Early the next morning, Xiao Taohong hurried in.
"No, no, no, miss, a lot of military masters are here. They say they are looking for you, what should I do? Do you want to hide?"
When Bai Lingyue and the regent were discussing the deal yesterday, Xiao Taohong was kept outside, so she didn't know that Bai Lingyue asked the regent to borrow someone.
"Don't panic, those are the regent's people. Go and ask them to wait." Bai Lingyue got up in a hurry, washed briefly, then went to her mother's yard and gathered all the people she had borrowed.
"Mother Lin, take two people to the rice and noodle shop outside. Mother Li, take two people to the medicine shop..."
Bai Lingyue will take back all the important shops in her mother's dowry within today, so
Today must be done quickly.
After allocating the people, we set off according to the address and method given by Bai Lingyue.
Bai Lingyue left ten military masters for herself. Today she is going to the suburbs, her mother's largest field, because the people there are very unruly and she needs to bring more people.
Taohua Village is a very beautiful name, with beautiful mountains and clear waters and fertile land.
The Zhou family has hundreds of hectares of fertile land here, and the farmland for their daughter Zhou Luoyi has more than fifty hectares, which is the best among the Zhou family's fertile fields.
However, this place has been occupied by others, and the harvested grain has never been handed over to Zhou Luoyi. Of course, the person who occupied the fertile land is not Aunt Yun, and she does not have this ability yet.
This man is a tough guy, and that's why Bai Lingyue found so many people to deal with him.
Holding the map, Bai Lingyue looked at the green crops in the fields and the farmers working hard in the fields.
She got off the carriage, asked the military men to wait where they were, and walked down the field.
There were three people clearing weeds in this field. She walked up to a woman and squatted down.
"Hello, auntie."
The woman glanced at Bai Lingyue and was immediately stunned: "You, you, are you a fairy? You are so pretty."
Bai Lingyue...
"Auntie, you're welcome. I would like to ask, how many kilograms of grain can this acre of land produce?" Bai Lingyue asked the woman politely.
The woman talked more when she saw Bai Lingyue.
"Fairy, our land is very fertile. One acre of land can produce four hundred kilograms of grain."
Four hundred pounds? It is already very productive at this time, and the other fields are only two to three hundred kilograms per acre, which is not bad.
"Then how much money will the landlord give you?" This is what Bai Lingyue is also very concerned about. To hire tenant farmers to farm the land, you have to pay money.
Speaking of this, the woman's expression suddenly darkened.
"What kind of money should I give? I don't know how it is calculated. After working hard for a year, not only do we not have much food, but we still owe money to our employer."
The woman said very angry, and the hoe in her hand became a little heavier.
Bai Lingyue also found it strange. They worked in the fields all year round and still owed food. This landlord's family was really...
"Auntie, I want to ask you, where is this landlord's house? I have something to talk to him about."
The aunt looked at Bai Lingyue several times and felt that she was too good-looking and was definitely not a bad person. She would not work with the landlord to deal with them, so she told her to the landlord's family.
After Bai Lingyue thanked her, she whispered something to Xiao Taohong, and then went to the landlord's house alone.
The landlord's house is not very far away. I heard from the aunt just now that she is not a local, but she moved here later just to collect rent.
Zhou Luoyi's land belonged to this Peach Blossom Village and several surrounding villages, so the landlords kept it all in their own pockets.
When Bai Lingyue arrived at the door of the landlord's house, she saw several long and fierce servants standing there.
"Excuse me, does Boss Gu live here?" Bai Lingyue asked the servants.
"What do you want from our master?" The servant saw that Bai Lingyue was a little girl, so he spoke to her in a nice tone.
"I have something to discuss with him." Bai Lingyue deliberately looked timid, which made the servants feel a little distressed.
"Let's go in and report." A servant ran in, and soon a short, tall man like a winter melon came out.
"Who's looking for me?" The man was none other than Boss Gu, the nephew of Mrs. Bai Gu, the old lady of the Bai family.
"Me." Bai Lingyue walked over in two steps.
"You?" Boss Gu looked at Bai Lingyue's small arms and legs but her outstanding beauty. He rolled his eyes and his face was suddenly full of smiles.
"Hey, little girl, you're looking for me, so please come in and talk." As he said this, Boss Gu winked at his servant, then he ushered the person in, and the servant closed the door.
Bai Lingyue had already discovered Boss Gu's intention, but she just pretended not to know and followed him inside.
"Come on, come on, sit down and drink tea." Boss Gu asked Bai Lingyue to sit down, and he sat down next to Bai Lingyue.
"Your surname is Gu, right? I would like to ask, do these fifty hectares of land belong to you?" Bai Lingyue asked.
"Of course it's mine, what? You don't believe it?" Boss Gu patted his chest and said firmly.
"Well, I heard that the fertile land here belongs to Mrs. Bai Mansion Zhou Luoyi. How did it become yours?" Bai Lingyue asked pretending to be confused.
Boss Gu coughed, and then he said seriously.
"Little girl, don't listen to people's nonsense. This is our Gu family's property." Boss Gu insisted that it was the Gu family's property.
Bai Lingyue looked at his spittle and turned her face away in disgust.
"What are you doing here, little girl? What do you want to know?" Boss Gu finally came to his senses and asked with some vigilance.
"I came here to take back all the land, and spit out all the money you collected in the past ten years." Bai Lingyue's face suddenly changed, and Boss Gu frowned.
He is the local snake of Taohua Village. He was able to dominate the market from having nothing when he first came here. It is not without means.
A little girl with no hair on her head actually dared to threaten him.
"Hmph, I think you look good. If you sell it to a brothel, you will definitely get a good price. You can't take Tian back, and neither can you, hahahaha!"
Boss Gu said and stretched out his fat hand to grab Bai Lingyue!
