Are You Trying to Steal My Estate?

Zhou Wanwan almost died laughing. At first, she thought the estate was quite nice.

I never imagined that everything in here was stolen.

Zhou Wanwan took a stroll around the village and said, "You know what, look at these vegetables, they're really well grown."

The vegetables couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

The cabbage said, "Every single vegetable here comes from someone else's field. Not a single person in this village knows how to farm."

"Absolutely! These people are really bold, daring to come here and cause trouble. Those bad guys will be back soon."

No sooner had they finished speaking than they saw the people outside return, this time with even more.

The leader shouted, "Drive her away! This little beast has raised a tree demon; let's burn her!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Old Scholar Tree flew into a rage, "I was originally thinking of sparing your lives, but you insist on taking a dead end, so I'll grant your wish."

The Old Scholar Tree moved incredibly fast, and soon half the people there were dragged into the woods by its minions.

The remaining people scattered in terror. Zhou Wanwan sat in the treehouse and sighed, "These people really don't know what's good for them. Now look what happened!"

Overall, the estate was pretty good; Zhou Wanwan provided energy to some of the dishes.

The vegetables were cooked, and then we heard a cabbage exclaim, "Ah, this feels so good! I've never felt so good before!"

The grains ripened quickly, and the sorghum couldn't help but exclaim, "Who would have thought I'd actually ripen now? Hahahaha..."

A sorghum stalk said:

"What's so good about maturity? It just means we're going to be cut off."

I don't want to be cut off, there's a treasure hidden down here!

Zhou Wanwan glanced at the old Old Scholar Tree Old Scholar Tree; its roots had already reached down into the ground.

A short while later, a small box was brought up. The Old Scholar Tree opened the box and saw several pieces of gold ingots.

There were several pieces of jewelry next to it, including a bracelet inlaid with jade in pure gold, a filigree gold inlaid flower, and a pair of pearl earrings.

Underneath were several large-denomination banknotes, and a small brocade box containing a piece of mutton-fat jade, smooth and warm to the touch.

This jade pendant is truly exquisite; Zhou Wanwan felt a warm, smooth sensation as she held it in her hand.

In the corner, there was a century-old ginseng and a small piece of agarwood.

Zhou Wanwan clicked her tongue twice and said, "Where did you get all these things? How come the people in the village have these?"

Then I heard the pear tree next to me say:

"These things all belong to the wet nurse. The city lord's wet nurse is naturally different."

The wet nurse will be retiring in this village; she'll probably be released soon.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the large denomination silver notes in the bank and said, "Five thousand taels of silver notes, that wet nurse has embezzled quite a lot!"

Sure enough, an old woman rushed out from inside and said:

Who are you? What brings you to this village?

"Damn it! You actually brought my treasure to light, give it back to me right now!"

Zhou Wanwan looked at her with a smile and said, "This treasure is yours, isn't it?"

The old woman glared at them and said:

"If it's not mine, is it yours?"

"If you don't give me the treasure today, believe me, I'll report you to the city lord!"

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said:

"Go! Once you're there, have a proper talk with the city lord."

"Just say we stole your treasure."

If the wet nurse hadn't been so aggressive, she would have been willing to return these things to her.

Although these things seem like a lot, they don't matter to Zhou Wanwan.

But given her attitude, why should we return it to her?

The wet nurse was so angry her face turned red. "I'll go tell the old lady right now, you just wait and see, the old lady is in that big estate behind here."

Zhou Wanwan thought for a moment and said, "That big estate in the back, isn't that one of my properties? I want to go take a look too."

Old Scholar Tree led Zhou Wanwan towards the large village behind it.

This large estate is worlds apart from the small one in front of it; it's incredibly grand.

The old lady of the city lord's family kept muttering:

"I don't know where my son has run off to again. He always runs away several times a year."

There's a huge mess to deal with at home, and now even the city lord's mansion is gone.

"He's fine, he doesn't care about anything or ask about anything, does he even care about this family anymore?"

Concubine Ruan, who was standing next to her, nodded in agreement.

"That's right! We don't even have money for our two kids' tuition yet!"

"Our two children are so talented, we can't let their talents go to waste."

The old woman sighed and said, "I still have a gold bracelet here, you can take it and sell it!"

Concubine Ruan's eyes lit up and she said, "Alright, I Old Madam Xie."

The nanny barged in and said:

"Madam, something terrible has happened! A group of robbers have come to my estate."

They took all my belongings... Waaaaah...

The old lady was furious. "How dare they try to take over our city lord's mansion! I'd like to see who it is!"

Zhou Wanwan led her three older brothers into the manor. The old lady was trembling with rage. "You little beast, you dare to come here again! Guards, beat her to death!"

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said:

"This is my estate now. Pei Shuang gave it to me, and you dare to do this? You even dare to hit me?"

I was originally planning to let you stay for a couple of days since you're Pei Shuang's family, but it seems you don't need that!

The old lady sneered:

"What a joke! She says she'll give you this estate, and you just do it like that?"

"This estate belongs to my son, so what is she to me?"

Zhou Wanwan had Pei Shuang brought over. Pei Shuang entered the estate, saw the old lady, and frowned, saying, "Old lady, this estate is mine now. Please leave."

The old lady glared at her and said:

"Your estate? Let me tell you! In Peerless City, our family is the boss."

Pei Shuang, you better know your place. Don't think that just because we're divorced, I can't do anything to you.

My son is a Earth Ranking; you can't afford to offend him. Also, take this child with you.

Zhou Wanwan blinked and said, "Are you trying to rob my manor?"

The wet nurse sneered, "What do you mean by 'robbery'? This manor originally belonged to the old lady. You bunch of bullies, give me back my trunk!"

Zhou Wanwan looked at her and said, "You mean those gold ingots and several thousand taels of silver notes? Your master's family is quite generous to you!"

The old lady looked at the wet nurse and said, "You actually embezzled so much money?"

The wet nurse said in a flustered manner, "This is all money I saved up myself, it doesn't belong to the manor. I also run a small business."

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "Alright, get rid of them! They're too annoying."

Suddenly they felt their bodies become light and float up into the air.

The old woman cried out, "Ah! Flying! What's happening? Help me, son! Help me!"
