Chapter 729 Im The Lanlord(5)

Su Hua puffed her chest, reprimanded Shi Sheng self-righteously, its not like you didnt know that our village was robbed by the bandits. Are you trying to put us in a tight spot by forcing us to pay rent?

Whats that has anything to do with me? Shi Sheng looked at Su Hua funny, you getting robbed, thats your own problem. Am I supposed to bear the loss with you? Who do you think you are?

It was like a buyer was robbed on his way home after buying an item, yet he asked the seller to be responsible for that.

Su Hua thought that she was the emissary of justice, the Ruan Family is so wealthy, youre not short of this rent. Cant you have a little kindness?

Shi Sheng spread her hands, so its my fault for being wealthy? I rented the land to you, and you pay for the rent. This is the rules.

Since were unable to pay now, cant you extend the deadline? Su Hua was furious, you bourgeoisie only knows how to exploit people. How could you be so cruel as a lady?

Arent you being ruthless when you cant even pay the rent!

Whats the point of being mean to me when Im not the one that robbed you? Thats hilarious.

Ill say the same about you. Shi Sheng smiled insincerely.

Su Hua probably knew Shi Sheng was referring to the incident of her being kidnapped by the bandits. She was speechless for a moment but was quickly calmed down.

She was only a weak, petite lady. She could not even save her if she wanted.

And she was fine anyway.

The bandits wanted money, and her family had plenty of them. What could they do to her anyway?

Su Hua. The mayor could not stand watching her blabbering and pulled her behind him, a little girl like you shouldnt interfere with this.

Mayor, shes basically killing us, Su Hua was unwilling, Ruan Xiao Yang, dont think that youre invincible just because youre loaded. Not everything in this world can be bought with money.

Really? the corner of Shi Shengs mouth curved, her tone with a hint of ridicule, but Im wealthy, things that I cant buy with money Ill come up with other ways.

Su Hua,

She looked at Shi Sheng weirdly, is this the Ruan Xiao Yang I know? Why does she sound so different from before?

The mayor was sweating bullets. He had someone to hold Su Hua back and apologize to Shi Shang hurriedly.

Ill extend your deadline, but she has to pay on time. Shi Sheng pointed at Su Hua.

Why? Su Hua broke free from those two who were holding her back.

Whys she the only one who needs to pay on time?

Because I dont like you.

Didnt you say that Im cruel?

How can I fail to live up to that title?

Im showing you how cruel I can be now.

Su Huas face was flushed in rage, just when she wanted to argue with Shi Sheng. The mayor rushed to pull her aside as if she said anything more. The whole village might need to pay on time too.

Su Hua could only watch as Shi Sheng left there in her carriage.

Su Hua was still mad that Shi Sheng did not extend her rent deadline. She was determined to defeat the bourgeoisie.

Su Huas household consisted of 6 family members. Her parents with two younger brothers and a younger sister.

She was the eldest child in her family. Her parents valued the sons over the daughters, so she and her sister had to do all the chores.

Whats wrong? Su Hua heard someone from behind as she was plucking the leaves in the yard.

Su Hua turned around to see Du Gu Xia standing at the doorway. She concealed her unhappiness, why did you get out of bed?

Du Gu Xia had been treating his wounds for the past few days after being bitten by a venomous snake.

Du Gu Xia was at least 1.85m tall, wearing rough sackcloth, with some stubbles on his face. It was pretty good-looking in a wild way.

I saw you standing outside for a long time. Did anyone bully you? Du Gu Xia asked.

Su Hua went up and supported him, its all because of Ruan Xiao Yang. She came here to collect rent. How is our village going to afford to pay rent in this situation?

The Ruan Family is so rich, yet they still want to exploit us. Did she think that planting paddy is easy?

Su Hua kept complaining while Du Gu Xia listened quietly. He blew a whistle after Su Hua went in to cook.

A black silhouette hopped in from the window, master.

InvestigateRuan Xiao Yang.

Yes, master.

The silhouette left without a sound.

The villagers saw Shi Shengs face and were scared that she would get her revenge for that day, so when they heard that only Su Huas family was the only tenant who needed to pay rent, they did not dare to say anything.

Su Hua was definitely unhappy that she was the only one who needed to pay rent. Shi Sheng heard that Su Hua beat up the rent collector who was sent to collect rent.

The person who beat them up obviously was not Su Hua. It was Du Gu Xiu.

The rent collector came back with his face bruised and swollen, Miss, that Su Hua was too arrogant. Not only she didnt pay the rent, she even beat me up. Look at what she did to me.

What did she say? She has the male lead helping her, good job.

She said she doesnt have food to pay us, but she has a life. the rent collector gnashed his teeth, Miss, look at what shes talking about. She is a scoundrel.

Female leads were all about scoundrels. Most of them had this skill.

Its still the same phrase- shameless people are invincible in this world.

Shi Sheng waved her hand, to get your salary, you can rest for the next few days.

The rent collector stopped complaining and was full of gratitude, thanks, Miss.

Su Hua was a scoundrel to Shi Sheng. She took it easy as if anyone did not know how to be a scoundrel.

Even Im afraid of myself when Im like that.

Shi Sheng ordered someone to collect the land rented to Su Hua. Since she was not paying the rent, she could not plant there anymore.

Su Hua naturally was against it. Since she could not argue with them, she went up to the Ruan Mansion directly.

Ruan Xiao Yang, come and face me. Su Hua slapped on Ruan Mansions gate, shouting so loudly until everyone from the street could hear her.

It was still early, so only some merchants were preparing to set up their stalls. They gathered around the Ruan Mansion when they heard that someone was making a scene in front of the Ruan Mansion.

Ruan Xiao Yang, come out! Dont be a wuss. The others may be scared of you, but I, Su Hua, am not!

Ruan Xiao Yang

The citizens were curious about Su Huas blabbering and were gossiping.

Creak-

The gate of the Ruan Mansion opened slowly, Qiu Shui with the other servants standing inside.

Wheres Ruan Xiao Yang? Su Hua stepped into the mansion immediately, tell her to come out.

The servants behind Qiu Shui walked out in a line, blocking Su Huas path. Qiu Shui sneered, Su Hua, do you think the Ruan Mansion is someplace that you can come and go as you please? That our Miss is someone that you can meet just because you want to?

Su Hua as a lady was no match for men. Two servants carried her out.

Qiu Shui headed out elegantly in small steps, ordered the servants, bring her to the officials and say that shes trespassing the Ruan Mansion.

Yes.

Su Hua was stunned. She only began to struggle when she was carried down the stairs. She yelled out loud, what are you doing! Let go of me, Ruan Xiao Yang, come out and face me if you dare, let me go

Stop gathering here. Qiu Shui chased those gathered outside Ruan Mansion.
