Chapter 271: Intercepting Requires Strength

When Li Yu saw that they didn’t seem overconfident after hearing her plan and were still as cautious, her impression of them improved a little. She smiled and said to them, “The flowers, grass, and rocks in the manor, the layout of the house, the construction of the steps, as well as the planning and repair of the planting are in your hands. You have to have your own judgment, or find someone with good judgment to help you.”
...Craftsman Zou said in a small voice, “Madam, don’t worry. My second brother specializes in renovating gardens. The garden in the government office was set up by him. His legs are weak, so we didn’t bring him here today. Tomorrow morning, we’ll bring him here to take a look. After he does the measurements, we can design a pattern for you.”
When Li Yu heard that they were the ones who built the backyard of the government office, she felt even more at ease with them building the villa. “In that case, you guys will build the farm first. You can draft the blueprint of the villa and show me the blueprint and budget afterwards. If there are no problems, we can start working.”
“Madam, don’t worry. Thank you, Madam!” They thought to themselves that they were just building a manor, but they didn’t expect to receive a project for a mountain villa. As they rubbed their hands excitedly, their black and red faces were flushed with enthusiasm.
Li Yu decided on the construction location and craftsmen of the manor. When she turned around, she saw that everyone had already built a row of wooden houses. Someone was covering the roofs with straw curtains, and the earthen stove had been built. Old Madam Xu was instructing two short-term workers to help arrange a large water vat.
Li Yu said to Ji Xiang and Ruyi, who were building the cowshed, “Get them to dig a latrine pit at the side of the cowshed and warn them not to defecate anywhere lest they get infected with germs.”
The two of them nodded and noted it down. Ruyi looked at the sky and said,
“We’ll remember it, Madam. Shall I send you back first?”
Li Yu waved her hand and smiled. “I don’t need you to send me off. Go ahead.”
The two of them thought about it and agreed. They went over to help Li Yu prepare the cart. Seeing Li Yu drive the car away, they turned around and went back to work.
Wang Zhong hid quietly in the waist-deep grass of the abandoned house. He was getting impatient when he saw Li Yu coming towards the abandoned house. Wang Zhong stared at Li Yu like a cheetah waiting for its prey, waiting for an opportunity to attack.
Li Yu was driving the mule cart when she suddenly felt a cold gaze spying on
her from the front. A chill ran down her spine as she thought to herself that there must be danger ahead.
Li Yu pulled the reins to slow down. She took out a machete from her space. Then she held the machete in one hand and the reins in the other. She looked at the abandoned house not far ahead and went forward.
Seeing that the mule cart had slowed down, Wang Zhong didn’t dare to stare at Li Yu on the mule cart. He leaned against the mud wall and quietly waited for the mule cart to approach.
The squeaking sound of the wheels got closer and closer, and the cart appeared in front of Wang Zhong. Wang Zhong jumped up and stepped on a collapsed brick. He used the momentum to kick onto the low wall and jumped down, spreading his hand to grab Li Yu on the mule cart.
Li Yu held the machete and attacked at lightning speed. She cut off Wang Zhong’s palm that was grabbing at her. Where Wang Zhong’s palm and wrist separated, a stream of blood sprayed out like red rain.
“You know martial arts?” Wang Zhong was terrified. He glared at Li Yu and kicked her hard. Li Yu leaned back and raised her leg to kick Wang Zhong’s chest. Wang Zhong was thrown a distance away. The dust was stirred up as he hit the ground and passed out.
Li Yu then leaped down and took out a rope from the space to tie his head, neck, and legs together.
After tying him up, she saw that his wrist was still bleeding non-stop. Afraid that he would die from bleeding too much before she could get any intelligence out of him, she took out the Golden Injury Medicine and sprinkled it on his wound. Wang Zhong woke up under the stimulation of the Golden Injury Medicine. Seeing Li Yu looking at him coldly, he wanted to struggle and escape. Li Yu looked at him and said coldly, “You better not move, or you will be strangled to death by the rope.”
Wang Zhong realized that his head and feet were tied to the rope. He looked at Li Yu hatefully. “I didn’t expect the magistrate’s wife to know martial arts. If you have the ability, kill me.”
Li Yu thought to herself, “How dare he block my way and commit murder after knowing my identity? Could it be that the Wang family’s arrogant young lady sent him?”
Li Yu sneered. “Killing you is as easy as crushing an ant. Don’t even think about courting death. If you die, your family will have to suffer for you.”
Wang Zhong glared at Li Yu and cursed angrily, “You vicious woman, I’ll kill you.”
“Kill me? You’re really stubborn!” Li Yu sneered and slapped his neck. Wang Zhong fainted.
Li Yu picked him up and threw him into the cart. She rummaged through his body and found a lease, a few taels of silver, and a wooden waist token. There was the word “Wang” on one side of the waist token and the words “Wang
Zhong” on one side. The general meaning of the lease was that a person called Wang Zhong rented someone’s house. Looking at the waist token and the lease, she thought to herself, “Wang Zhong. Looks like he’s a slave of the Wang family.”
Li Yu put away those things and placed the machete back into the space. She looked at the blood on her body and thought for a moment. She felt that she would definitely be interrogated by the city guards if she entered the city like this. She took out the entry token Zhou Jia had given her from the space and drove towards the west city gate.
When she arrived at the city gate, the guard went forward to conduct his checks. Li Yu picked up the token and showed it to him. The guard hurriedly retreated to the side and waved his hand to let Li Yu enter the city.
When the cart rushed into the backyard, Li Yu said to Uncle Liu, who had come to unload the cart, “Uncle Liu, get Xing Hua to tell Gu Yu to bring Little Young Master and Seven Pounds to the side to play.”
“Yes, Madam.” Uncle Liu went to the second gate and asked Xing Hua to pass the message. After a while, Xing Hua ran back and said to Li Yu, “Madam, Gu Yu and Sister Xiaoyu have brought Little Young Master and Seven Pounds to the backyard.”
Li Yu nodded and carried the unconscious Wang Zhong out of the cart. Xing
Hua was stunned when she saw the unconscious Wang Zhong missing a palm.
Uncle Liu looked at Wang Zhong, who had lost a palm. He guessed that he might have been maimed by Madam because of an attack. He looked at Li Yu worriedly and asked with concern, “Madam, did this villain hurt you?”
“I’m fine. Thank you, Uncle Liu.” Li Yu carried Wang Zhong toward the backyard.
Uncle Liu was relieved to see Li Yu carry the assassin with ease into the courtyard. He turned around and saw Xing Hua still standing there in a daze.
He smiled and said, “Little girl, are you stunned?”
“I was just shocked.” Xing Hua patted her chest and smiled awkwardly. She turned and ran through the second gate.
Li Yu carried Wang Zhong in and locked him in the cellar under the kitchen. She turned around and went to the bathroom to take a shower. She changed her clothes and walked towards the backyard.
Gu Yu and Xiaoyu brought Yangyang along and stood on the bridge with Seven Pounds, feeding the fish with steamed buns. Xiaoyu looked at Yangyang and teased him, “Little Master, look who’s coming over there.”
“Mother.” Yangyang turned around and saw Li Yu. He threw down the steamed bun in his hand and pounced on Li Yu to hug her legs. He looked up at Li Yu. “Mother, Aunt Yu said that you’re very busy and asked me to be a good child.”
Li Yu looked at his obedient expression and quickly praised him. She picked him up and kissed him on the cheek. She praised him with a smile, “Thank you, son. You’re really my good boy.”
Yangyang smiled and hugged Li Yu’s neck, kissing her face happily..
