Traveling to an ancient peasant family: I got rich by doing business

Cao Ao looked at Li Yu arrogantly, "It's your blessing that I like your shop. You should pack up your things and leave quickly. From now on, this shop will be under my management."

Li Yu wanted to know how the Duke of Qi and his wife taught their children.

Nanny Tian told her about Cao Ao today. He was a unique bastard in the capital. A few years ago, when he was just fourteen years old, he kidnapped the daughter of a minor official and brought her to the Duke's Mansion to bully and abuse her. After beating her to death, he threw her into a mass grave as if nothing had happened.

The minor official had only this one daughter, whom he doted on like a treasure. When he saw his daughter being treated like this, he sued Cao Ao without caring about her reputation and future.

This matter caused a big fuss and was brought directly before the emperor. However, the ancestors of the Cao family had fought with Emperor Taizu to establish the country and had made great contributions. The current Duke of Qi also came out with a red book and an iron certificate. Even though the emperor was dissatisfied with Cao Ao, he had no choice but to let him go.

However, due to the boiling public resentment in the capital, the emperor ordered the Cao family to send Cao Ao out of the capital. The Duke of Qi and his wife did not want to do so, but they knew they were not in the right in this matter, and they were afraid of affecting other children in the family, so they had to reluctantly send Cao Ao to the Cao family's old house in Beizhou Prefecture.

For some unknown reason, Cao Ao was brought back recently.

Several years have passed since he was sent away, but his temper has not changed at all. He still does not understand any etiquette, morality, or self-awareness!

It’s really crazy to want a hot pot restaurant.

Li Yu looked at Cao Ao and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "The owner behind this store is Princess Jianing, are you still going to leave, young master?"

Cao Ao was stunned for a moment, "Who are you talking about? Princess Jianing?"

Li Yu: “Yes.”

Cao Ao burst into laughter. "Do you think I will believe you if you talk about Princess Jianing? Who is Princess Jianing? How can a lowly person like you marry someone like her?"

Li Yu didn't say anything, and directly took out the token of the palace, "What about this, can it prove it?" Princess Jianing was afraid that someone would hurt her, so she gave the token directly.

Cao Ao saw that the token did look like the one from the palace and felt somewhat doubtful.

At this time, the man standing on the far left behind him whispered, "Brother Cao, if this shop belongs to Princess Jianing, you can't take it. Princess Jianing is deeply favored by the emperor. If you offend her, it will be difficult to get away."

The man standing in the middle disagreed, "Princess Jianing is indeed not easy to mess with, but Brother Cao doesn't have to worry too much. Your father is the Duke of Qi, not much different from Prince An."

"We don't have to give up this shop, but we can't just leave without doing anything. Brother Cao has been away for a few years, so he probably doesn't know that Princess Jianing and Miss Xie are sworn enemies now. The princess has bossed Miss Xie around at various banquets. If Brother Cao can take this opportunity to stand up for Miss Xie, she will be very grateful to you."

Cao Ao was a brainless guy to begin with. When he heard what the three said, especially the last part about Miss Xie, he immediately got excited.

He looked at Li Yu and said, "It's the princess's shop, so what? I want it if I want it. If you know what's good for you, get out of here now."

Li Yu: "What if I say no?"

Cao Ao ordered the guards who followed him: "Smash this shop for me."

"Let's see who dares!" Li Yu bent down, grabbed the nearest stool, and raised it towards Cao Ao's head.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lu Xuan took a few big steps to the counter, took out his sword, rushed to stand next to Li Yu.

Han Xiaomei, Nanny Tian and others stood behind Li Yu.

Nanny Tian didn't want to fight, so she looked at Cao Ao and said, "Master Cao, we are all from the palace, are you sure you want to fight?"

Only then did Cao Ao notice Nanny Tian.

But he didn't take her seriously. So what if they were from the palace? They were just servants. He could crush them to death with just a flick of his finger.

With only Miss Xie in his mind, Cao Ao said, "Smash them all. I'll beat anyone who dares to stop me."

The Cao family guards did not dare to move.

That's the palace of the prince. How can the Duke's Mansion compare to the palace of the prince? Moreover, it's the Prince An who has the best relationship with the emperor. If someone from the palace of the prince is beaten tonight, they will all go to jail tomorrow!

Cao Ao didn't care about that. He looked at the guards fiercely and said, "Hurry up and do it. If you don't do it, I will sell you all out when I go back tonight!"

The guards had no choice but to charge forward with their knives in hand. However, they did not dare to use all their strength to fight, and were knocked over by Lu Xuan in just a few kicks.

Seeing this, Cao Ao shouted, "Didn't you eat?"

The guards groaned, their faces filled with pain, pretending not to hear.

Seeing that fewer and fewer people were standing, Cao Ao suddenly jumped behind a few men and said, "Come on, as long as you do a good job, I will let my father arrange official positions for you."

The men had no skills at all and could only talk. When the fight really started, they all backed down faster than Cao Ao. "Brother Cao, the people in the palace are powerful. Let's go first."

"Yes, after all, you are from Prince An's Mansion. If Duke Qi knew that you were fighting against Prince An's Mansion, he would be furious."

"The eldest daughter of the Xie family cares so much about Brother Cao, she definitely doesn't want you to get hurt because of standing up for her."

Li Yu wanted to laugh after hearing this. This was not what the man had just said. It was true that people become like their friends.

Cao Ao finally realized at this time that he had no chance of success, so he could only point at Li Yu angrily and say, "Just wait, I won't let you go."

After saying that, he turned around and left. When he reached the door, he saw people watching. He was furious and said, "What are you looking at, you lowly people? Do you believe I will kill you all?"

Under the light, some people lowered their heads and curled their lips where Cao Ao couldn't see.

They all remembered what happened back then. If it weren't for the merits of the first Duke of Qi and the red-lettered iron certificate bestowed by Emperor Taizu, the grass on Cao Ao's grave would have been two meters high.

This evil man surnamed Cao is really good at surviving. Why didn't anyone kill him when he left the capital? Now that he is back in the capital, they dare not let their daughters who are waiting to be married out of the house, for fear that he will see them and abuse them.

Li Yu watched the group walk away and said, "He won't let it go."

She made him suffer such a great loss.

Nanny Tian said in a deep voice: "Boss Li, don't worry, I will tell the princess everything about this matter when I return, and the princess will never stand idly by."

Li Yu immediately thanked her: "Then I'll trouble you, Madam."

With her current status, she cannot confront the Duke of Qi's Mansion at all. This matter can only be resolved by Princess Jianing!

However, since Cao Ao was looking for trouble, she would also use her own methods to make him suffer some losses without anyone noticing.

She will never let herself down!

After all, it was too late today, so Li Yu decided to do it the next day.

When they returned home, Li Yu saw the little beggar at the gate of the yard.

He was squatting at the door, and when he saw Li Yu and the others return, he quickly stood up and stood awkwardly.

Li Yu smiled at him, invited him to go into the yard, then added water to the big pot and asked him to boil water for his own bath.

Little beggar: "..."

Li Yu looked at him and said, "You can boil water yourself."

The little beggar nodded.

Li Yu smiled and said, "When it's done, call for help. Brother Lu Xuan will help you carry the water into the house."

The little beggar nodded again.

Han Xiaomei glanced at the little beggar and asked about his situation.

Li Yu drank a sip of herbal tea first, then told her his plan: "This kid wants to repay his gratitude. I just happen to want to form a takeaway team, so I'll let him try first."

If he can do it well, she will find him a small yard and recruit other people to deliver food together.

Han Xiaomei said "Oh" and finally understood.

It was getting late, so Li Yu asked her to wash up and go to bed as soon as possible.

In a blink of an eye, Li Yu and Lu Xuan were the only ones left in the hall. Lu Xuan felt a little uncomfortable, touched his sword, and prepared to leave.

Li Yu suddenly raised her hand, "Lu Xuan, I want to ask you for help with something."
