"What are you afraid of Afraid that I'll find out what you've done"That person knelt, their upper body prostrate on the ground, “S-small one doesn’t understand what the Princess means.”An Xuetang curl..."In the future, besides your base salary, for selling rabbits and ducks, I will have Ding Hua give everyone an additional payment."

As soon as An Xuetang said this, a woman immediately spoke up, “Miss, you can’t do that.”

"That's right, Miss. We belong to you, and you've given us a place to live and such good food. It's our duty to serve you, so there's no need for you to give us more money."

"Auntie Liu is right," Ding Hua also spoke up, "Miss, all of us are servants who sold ourselves to the miss. Receiving a salary is already a great kindness from the miss, there's no need for extra wages."

An Xue Tang smiled, "You needn't say more about this matter, I have made up my mind. You just do your own jobs well."

What she decided, no one could change. At this point, Ding Hua and the others stopped talking.

After giving her instructions, An Xue Tang wanted to return to the inner courtyard to find her husband Ah Jing. But at this moment, Ding Yi suddenly ran over in a hurry, "Miss, something's wrong!"

Ding Hua frowned, "What's the matter"

"Our land, our land has been trampled."

“What's going on”

Ding took a deep breath, "Our fields to the east have been destroyed. All the rice we planted has been ruined!"

"What" Ding Hua's face changed.

An Xuetang also sank her face, “Go and have a look.”

Several people rushed to the fields in the east. Seeing a large swathe of rice trampled, An Xuetang's face darkened with rage.

This lost at least hundreds of pounds of rice!

Ding Hua clenched her fists and looked at Ding Yi, "What's going on"

"I don't know either, it was like this when we got here this morning. We were afraid of destroying evidence, so we haven't dared to go down and check."

An Xue Tang's eyes, cold as a winter abyss, narrowed slightly. She didn't speak, merely walking towards that field of land.

The footprints in the ground were all over the place, it was impossible to tell how many people had come to vandalize.

Ding Hua also looked around the field and soon found a single shoe.

"Miss, there's a shoe here."

"Ding Hua, keep this shoe for now. Find a way to check Liu's house, I suspect the troublemakers are likely sent by Liu's family."

Even without An Xue Tang's words, Ding Hua had this suspicion. He nodded slightly, "Good."

Looking at the damaged things, An Xue Tang clenched her fists. In this era of food shortages, these people dared to touch her food

I really don't want to live anymore!

An Xuetang looked at Ding Yi, "Ding Yi, starting tonight find people to keep watch, give the night watchman wages, five wen per night, and they can rest half a day during the day."

Ding Yi clasped his hands together and said, "Yes."

Have Ding Yi lead people to handle the destroyed fields. An Xuetang returned to her room with a dark face.

Seeing An Xuetang's bad complexion when she entered, Mo Yunjing's smile gradually vanished, replaced by a faint concern. "Tangtang, what happened"

"I'm so mad!" An Xuetang slammed the table heavily, this was a rare outburst of anger for her.

She was truly angry. Regardless of how many people had messed up before, she didn't care. But this time, she was genuinely furious. She said angrily:

"Ah Jing, someone has destroyed my rice! They are too much. Grain is so precious, and they have wasted so much at once. I just can't swallow this!"

Mo Yunjing's mind sharpened, "The rice paddy has been trampled on"

"Yes, a whole lot of it! It was trampled all over and they even used knives to cut it. Hundreds of kilograms of rice, just gone like that!!"

"What does Tangtang want"

“I will definitely not let that person off easily!” An Xuetang gritted her teeth. “I have already asked Ding Hua to investigate. I suspect it was Liu’s family from the neighboring manor who did this. A few days ago, they seemed to have calmed down, and I thought that incident was over. I didn't expect them to come up with such a big move!”

Mo Yunjing also wore a somber expression, "Did Tangtang ever consider letting the Xia Qing deal with it"

"An Xuetang raised an eyebrow instantly, "Does Ah Jing want me to send Qing Snake to bite them"

"If that Master Liu dared to do it, it means he's already prepared a scheme against Tangtang. Tangtang going there head-on might not be advantageous. Why not send Qing She instead They're not the first time ruining someone's face, what do you think, Tangtang"

An Xuetang thought about it for a while, she felt that Mo Yunjing's words made sense. This Liu master had destroyed her rice paddy, he would definitely be prepared and when she went to take revenge, he would definitely have ways to deal with her.

At this time, let the green snake go. No one knows if it was because of An Xue Tang's actions.

Even if a green snake were to bite someone to death, no one could blame An Xue Tang.

On second thought, An Xuetang readily accepted Mo Yunjing's advice.

Not long after, Ding Hua returned. After his investigation, the person who caused trouble last night was indeed a servant from Liu's household.

There is no doubt that this order must have come from Master Liu or one of his wives, otherwise these servants wouldn't have the guts to come over.

"Miss, I'm taking people to the Liu family now." Ding Hua said with a slight anger.

"No, you don't need to go," An Xuetang shook her head. "I have a better plan, and I'll make them willingly double my grain!"

“”

Ding Hua blinked, clearly not understanding what An Xue Tang was trying to do.

In the evening, An Xuetang personally went to look for her pet green snakes.

No one knew what she had said to the green snakes, but within an hour, they appeared in the corner of Liu's mansion.

"Master, we destroyed that person's rice paddy. Why hasn't she been angry yet"

"Master Liu let out a snort. 'I think this woman must be looking for the reason, she may not figure it out so quickly that it's us. Who knows if she has also angered quite a few people outside.'"

"Lord Liu's wife smiled, covering her mouth. "That's true, that woman really brought this upon herself. If she had simply given us the child properly, we wouldn't have had to resort to such measures."

Mr. Liu's eyes held a certain longing. Every time he thought of that woman's pretty face, his heart would race like a deer in the forest. He desperately wanted to possess her.

He let out a cold smile. "I'll make her regret it. I'll make her kneel before me and apologize."

"Master, we..." Just as Madam Liu was about to say something, she suddenly cried out in alarm.

This shout angered Master Liu. He was about to scold her, calling her a ghost for shouting, but the next second, he himself let out a yell.

Soon after the two voices rang out, people in other rooms began to scream as well, a cacophony of wails and cries.

Mu Shi Shi and Mo Yun Jing in the neighboring estate had excellent hearing, and naturally heard those cries.

Mo Yunjing curled his lips and looked at An Xuetang, "It seems that Tangtang's little qings have succeeded."

An Xuetang snorted, “This is just the beginning!”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!n Xue Tang returned to Da Zi's side. One of Da Zi's legs had been grazed by an arrow, and she frowned. "Da Zi, bear with it, I'll apply medicine to you when we get home."Mò Yún Jǐng walked over and pu...
