Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 35 Cutting down trees for barbecue

"Xiao Rui, you can't give me this money." Ren Jun said in a deep voice.

He didn't know the specific reason, but he knew that his newly adopted niece was being bullied.

Zhang Guihua took the IOU from home and shouted:

"If you want evidence, who saw her pay me back? My IOU for 30,000 yuan is written in black and white, and there's still interest to be calculated."

Lin Ruoxi opened her mouth and wanted to defend herself, but when she thought that she really had no evidence to produce, she lowered her head again, pinching the corner of her clothes with her slender fingers, and her face was pale.

How can people be so bad?

The IOU was real, but when Lin Ruoxi paid back the money, she did not ask the other party to write a receipt.

Zhang Guihua denied it at this time, saying that Lin Ruoxi had never paid her back, and no one could deny it.

"Xixi went to work in your orchard. I saw all this. Did you give her money?" someone shouted.

"30 a day! How can you bargain so hard? The old ladies in the village charge 60 a day!" the old man scolded.

"I already said it's interest. Besides, my son said he fell in love with her during the summer vacation a few days ago. My son is a college student, and we will be a family by then. It won't matter what the money is."

When Zhang Guihua mentioned her son, her face was full of pride. Her son is a top university student.

Xue Rui's face was gloomy. Did she also target Lin Ruoxi?

A first-tier university? Those who say first-tier universities are basically non-key universities. Lin Ruoxi's grades are good enough to get into Peking University or Tsinghua University, so she has to be qualified for a first-tier university.

"How can you teach a college student if you are so shameless? I think your son cheated in the exam!" a woman holding a child scolded.

"Who are you scolding?" Zhang Guihua rolled up her sleeves and was about to fight, but was stopped by the people around her.

"Your son was worthy of her before, but it's hard to say now." A young man said sarcastically.

"Xixi has found her family. See, this car is worth more than one million yuan." The young man said, patting the hood.

"What in-laws? Her mother was bought. Where are the in-laws? I think she is just a wealthy person on the list!" Zhang Guihua said sarcastically.

"You fart!" Ren Jun yelled.

"Who knows whether she goes out to school or to work in some dirty place. I don't care!" Zhang Guihua gritted her teeth. Her cheap daughter-in-law was gone, and she was very unhappy now.

"Watch your mouth!" Ren Jun roared.

"What are you talking about, bitch!"

……

Xue Rui didn't say a word from beginning to end, just watched everything quietly.

He took the money from Lin Ruoxi and handed it to Zhang Guihua: "You are right, we must have evidence for everything. I will give you the money and give me the IOU."

"Xiao Rui!" Ren Jun was so angry that he didn't know what to do with that shrew.

Xue Rui turned his head and chuckled, giving Ren Jun a look.

"What can he do?" Ren Jun looked surprised. Even he had no solution, so what could Xue Rui do to him?
But Xue Rui is not someone who would suffer a loss, so it is impossible for him to just spend money to avoid disaster.

Zhang Guihua glanced at Xue Rui, took the stack of banknotes, spat on her fingers and started counting.

"You are so young, but you understand the world. You are much better than these people." Zhang Guihua handed the IOU to Xue Rui.

After Xue Rui received the IOU, he tore the paper into pieces and turned to Lin Ruoxi and said:

"Xixi, since you won't be living in the village anymore, just cut down the orchard. I want to open a barbecue restaurant. Barbecue from fruit trees sounds like it would make money."

Lin Ruoxi slowly raised her head, her delicate little face covered with countless tear marks, her eyes full of sadness and despair.

Xue Rui's heart was inexplicably ached. That shrew's mouth was so foul. Lin Ruoxi had never heard such vicious words before.

"Orchard? What orchard?"

Lin Ruoxi usually goes to school and grows a small vegetable patch. Where is the orchard?

"Where did she get the orchard?" Zhang Guihua said disdainfully. "You are wrong. Xixi has a five-acre orchard, and now she has sold it all to me."

Xue Rui took out a piece of paper from his pocket, unfolded it and said, "Here is the land lease contract. I have leased it for twenty years."

"That's my family's orchard, how come it's yours?"

Zhang Guihua's voice was so sharp that it hurt Xue Rui's ears.

He suppressed his irritability and nausea and said with a smile:
"Aunt Zhang, you just said that everything must be based on evidence. You said it's yours, where's your evidence? Where's the contract?"

"Evidence? What evidence do you need? Everyone knows that the orchard is mine?" Zhang Guihua raised her voice a few degrees.

"If you can't take it out, the orchard will be mine. Anyway, I will send people tomorrow to cut down all the fruit trees for firewood." Xue Rui picked his ears, looking indifferent.

Lin Ruoxi looked at Xue Rui in surprise. When she faced Zhang Guihua, she was trembling with fear and could not make any argument even though she was right.

But Xue Rui was so calm that he even said that he would cut down other people's orchards.

"Xue Rui..." Lin Ruoxi pulled the corner of Xue Rui's clothes.

"It's none of your business. That piece of land is mine." Xue Rui took a step forward and stood in front of Lin Ruoxi.

Lin Ruoxi was stunned. Xue Rui was right. She had already sold the land.

"Grandma, I sold our land." Lin Ruoxi walked to the old lady.

"Yeah." The old lady had never seen such a scene, but she was not too surprised.

When a person is about to die, he becomes indifferent to everything...

When the villagers heard Xue Rui's words, they were shocked beyond words.

"Young man, one thing is one thing. That orchard belongs to Zhang Guihua. How can you cut down the orchard? That's against the law." Someone said.

"It's written in black and white here. That piece of land and everything on it are mine." Xue Rui said confidently.

"I wonder who dares to touch my orchard!"

Zhang Guihua felt a little guilty. She did not sign a contract with Lin Ruoxi. She thought that with the IOU in hand, wouldn't Lin Ruoxi let her control her?
But she never expected that this orphan girl would now have someone to support her.

"Don't keep saying 'your orchard' all the time. Who is being bothered by me cutting down my orchard? I'll call someone over right now. If you're not satisfied, you can sue me in court."

Xue Rui looked impatient and shouted to Ren Jun: "Uncle, find someone now to cut down that orchard."

They acted out the whole thing. Their current identities are Lin Ruoxi's family members. They can no longer call him uncle. Xue Rui calls him younger uncle instead.

"Master Wang, the tree cutter, right? You lead the team here, and remember to call a truck. I want to cut down a piece of apple tree for charcoal barbecue. The address is Huacun..."

Ren Jun felt much more relieved, and he kept looking at Xue Rui while he was on the phone.

His eldest nephew was so ruthless that he admired him from the bottom of his heart.

When the villagers saw this scene, they felt a chill in their hearts.

"City people are too cruel. They appear to be friendly and not quarrelling on the surface, but once they open their mouths they will destroy a family's livelihood."

"That's right. Guihua's family only has this orchard. If they lose it, will they still have to go out to work at their age?"

"She's already fifty, and no one wants her if she goes out."

"Young man, can you please have a talk and not be so drastic?" an old man advised.

Seeing Ren Jun making a phone call, Zhang Guihua was really anxious.

She didn't know what to do, so she subconsciously called her son: "Binbin..."

"Hey, mom, why are you crying?"

"Mom has been bullied. Someone wants to cut down our orchard. You are a law student. Can you think of any way to help him? Send him to jail."
