Lin Tianfang looked at Lin Jiujiu in disbelief; he couldn't believe that this brat really knew anything.
But Lin Jiujiu's next words made him uneasy.
"There are a total of twenty acres of fertile land. You dared not rent it to anyone in the village for fear that others would find out, so you found a tenant in the next village through your son-in-law."
Not only that, Xiao Tianyi has been reported missing for years, but his remains have never been found, and you have concealed these things from the authorities.
You collected his rice for the past few years, and it ended up in your pocket, didn't it?
He has the title of Xiucai (a scholar who passed the imperial examination at the county level), and he can own fifty acres of fertile land that are exempt from taxes. You should have your son-in-law use his position to keep those lands registered under his name.
But you collected 60% of the rent from the tenants. To prevent it from being discovered, you had all the rent converted into cash, and you even had your son-in-law collect it on your behalf, giving him 10% as a commission. Is that right?
Lin Tianfang was dumbfounded. He never expected that such a secret matter, which he hadn't told anyone except himself and his son-in-law who was helping him, not even his own wife, was known to this brat.
Even the location of his hidden land deeds and silver was exactly the same.
Lin Xiaoxiao also looked at Lin Jiujiu in disbelief, knowing that what Lin Jiujiu said was true.
She knows these things because she was reborn; she heard her grandfather say these things with her own ears when she died in her previous life.
Lin Jiujiu didn't pay much attention to Lin Xiaoxiao's expression. After all, Lin Jiujiu had traveled through so many worlds and seen countless people like her.
Moreover, the illegal system forcibly bound her to this world in order to find such people, then eliminate them and plunder their fortune.
These seemingly illogical beings, whether reborn or transmigrated, are mostly those who possess great fortune, and some can even grow into beings like chosen ones of a plane.
In the past, she might have needed the system to find it, but now that she's seen so many people, she can almost always spot the differences as soon as they meet.
We haven't touched her simply because it's not the right time yet.
Another reason is that although this person was reborn, he was not reborn with great fortune and could become the chosen one of the plane.
It wouldn't be of much use to Lin Jiujiu, and she had only just transmigrated when these people came knocking on her door. She hadn't had time to set up a grand formation to conceal the secrets of heaven, so it wouldn't be worth it to mess with her now, as it was very likely that the Heavenly Dao would notice.
Lin Jiujiu ignored Lin Xiaoxiao and stared straight at Lin Tianfang, taking in the guilty look in his eyes.
Then, he said coldly, "I know more. If you don't want to spend the rest of your life in jail, then don't meddle in other people's business. Otherwise, I don't care who your uncle is, don't blame me for not giving you face."
Lin Tianfang was so intimidated by the murderous aura he exuded that he actually dared not speak.
The onlookers began to discuss how much of what she had just said was true and how much was false.
Lin Tianfang remained silent, and Lin Jiujiu also put him aside for the time being.
Instead, they headed towards the Xiao family.
He picked up Xiao Changhe and Sun Shi, one in each hand, and then threw them together.
He glanced back at his two silly younger brothers.
"Tie them up with rope. These two broke into my private residence in the middle of the night and made rude remarks, slandering and severely damaging my reputation. Send them to the yamen first thing tomorrow morning."
Lin Jiujiu summed up the matter with a single sentence.
She beat up everyone from the Xiao and Sun families one by one. Anyone who dared to speak up at this point would be met with a slap across the face.
Zhao cursed filthy things, but Lin Jiujiu didn't tolerate it. She turned around and walked to a corner of the courtyard, picked up a stick, and shoved a lump of food into Zhao's mouth the moment she opened it.
"Ugh~"
Her actions disgusted everyone.
What she casually picked up was none other than the poop of a puppy that Little Baozi had found on the mountain.
That little thing doesn't stay at home usually; it goes up the mountain every few days.
Don't let its small size fool you; it's barely bigger than a kitten, but it almost never comes back empty-handed.
Sometimes they can even bring back prey that is bigger than themselves.
Lin Jiujiu initially thought it was a wolf cub, but after checking it several times, she couldn't see any difference between it and a dog. Moreover, apart from her and the little guy, the little thing wasn't close to anyone else and wouldn't bark or bite randomly, so the original owner tacitly allowed the little guy to be kept.
Actually, if we're to be precise, it's more accurate to say that the little thing is raising the two of them, rather than saying they're raising the little thing.
Although the original owner knew some martial arts, hunting was not something that could be done simply by knowing martial arts.
It's perfectly normal to come back empty-handed after a busy day.
On the contrary, the little thing never ate at her place, and every time it came back it would bring them some prey.
And that little thing, I don't know if it ate something bad outside these past two days, actually had diarrhea in the yard.
Lin Jiujiu was originally going to deal with it, but Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly visited in the afternoon. After greeting her, she felt dizzy and left the thing until now.
Unexpectedly, it has now come in handy.
Should she say that Zhao was lucky, or just lucky?
Zhao was also quite disgusted; she felt like vomiting, but the stick was still in her mouth.
She felt she had never felt so disgusted before, not even when she was younger and with the old man.
Lin Jiujiu didn't care about any of that. She pushed the stick in a few more inches, as if to say, "If you dare to dirty my yard, I'll shove this stick down your throat."
Lin Luo had never seen Lin Jiujiu like this before. He was stunned for a moment and couldn't even remember that his sister had asked him to get the rope.
It was only when Lin Xiaomei came running out of the house, holding two hemp ropes, that we realized what was happening.
