After hearing this, Xu Tao directly rejected the first place. The location was fine, but the seller was problematic.

This property originally belonged to his uncle, but the old man had no children, so he asked him to come and take care of him, and told him that the house would belong to him after he left.

But this person took advantage of my uncle's illness to trick others into putting the house in his own name. Now he wants to sell the house before the uncle passes away, fearing that someone inside has died and he won't be able to get a good price.

As soon as Xu Tao heard it, she knew that the other party was a difficult person. She didn't have time to live there now. It would take some time for her parents to adopt the child. If the man was a scoundrel and continued to live there, she would not know what to do.

There was no problem with the second and third houses, so she asked someone to take her there to have a look. As soon as she went out, she saw the broker staring at them with a fierce look. She stared back at him. Let's see who has the bigger eyes, right?

"girl?"

"It's okay, let's go."

It was a distance to the west of the city, so Xu Tao took the pawnshop's carriage directly and arrived at the place a quarter of an hour later. The yard was very complete and only needed a simple renovation. There was plenty of sunlight, and every room could get in. Xu Tao thought it was pretty good.

The other place was not far away. The two of them walked for five minutes to get there. As soon as Xu Tao entered, her eyes lit up. The design and layout were extremely exquisite. The yard was full of flowers and lush vegetation. The fragrance of flowers could be smelled in the breeze. The house was also about 80% new and could be moved in after a little cleaning.

"If I want both, how much would it cost?"

"Miss, if you want both, I will definitely give you a base price. The first one will be 210 taels, and this one is slightly more expensive, 250 taels. I believe you can also see that although this one is not as big as the original one, you don't need to move the furnishings inside at all..."

"Four hundred taels."

"No, no, your offer is too low. I'll give you another ten taels, so the total for both places is four hundred and fifty taels."

"Three hundred and eighty taels."

The broker was about to continue talking when he got stuck. He looked at the young lady in front of him in shock. How could someone bring something back? He silently reminded her, "Young lady, it seems you gave her four hundred taels just now."

"Yeah, but you didn't agree."

Tooth man. . . . . . .

After some haggling, the price was set at four hundred and twenty taels. Xu Tao also knew that this was the other party's bottom price, so he went straight to the Humanitarian Office to transfer the ownership and spent a little more money to get the red deed.

After the broker left with a smile on his face, she felt a little uneasy. Did he pay too much?

"Hey, wait a minute."

"Miss, do you have any other instructions?"

The broker held the banknotes tightly in his arms. He had just made it clear to the little girl that he would not return them once the sale was made.

Xu Tao rolled her eyes. How could she possibly steal my money? "Please help me rent out the first house. Then, help me find some shops or fields nearby. If there are any, I'd like to take them too. But I don't have time today. I'll come find you in three days."

"Okay, young lady, don't worry, I will definitely arrange everything for you."

After saying goodbye, Xu Tao went to the furniture shop to order some furniture and then returned to the Wen Mansion.

"Xu Tao, Xu Tao!!!"

Xu Tao walked to the back door and heard someone calling from behind. She turned around in confusion and saw three people with pointed chins and monkey cheeks walking towards her. When she looked closely, she realized that these were Guihua's nominal parents and grandmother.

He knew without hesitation that these three people were definitely not looking for him for good, so he walked straight in, leaving the three people outside cursing.

"Taohua, you're back. How about I go and support you?"

"Miss, I can handle small matters."

Wen Ruyi didn't say anything more. Seeing that the other party didn't look troubled, she felt relieved and stretched out her white and tender little hand.

"what?"

"You called me a slave yesterday. You have to compensate me with a storybook."

"Okay, I'll give it to you right away."

Xu Tao laughed a little, went back to the room to get a book, and was told to go back and rest. She smiled and left, took the cakes she bought this morning and gave some to Zhang Mama, Shaoyao and the others before returning to the room.

When Guihua heard the news that Taotao had returned, she hurried to the room as soon as she finished her shift. Without Taotao, she would not be who she is today. She was able to become a third-class maid because of Taotao. She could not stand idly by when her little sister got into trouble.

Xu Tao pulled the impetuous man to sit down, "Guihua, don't worry, I'm fine. By the way, remember not to leave the house alone recently. I met the Ding family this morning. I don't know how they got wind of you. They're at the gate."

"Okay, Taotao, you know I don't like going out. But you, if there is anything, you must tell me, okay? Don't carry it alone."

"I know, my dear Osmanthus."

After Xu Tao finished speaking, she yawned loudly. She had been talking to her aunt all night last night and didn't sleep much. She fell asleep unknowingly.

Chen Guihua found it a little funny. She helped the man lie down, covered him with a quilt, and left quietly.

Meanwhile, Old Man Xu and Old Lady Xu, who also had not slept all night, were running around in a panic at home. What did the little whore's last words mean? Could it be that she wanted to attack the fourth brother?

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. Old Lady Xu started cursing, "Damn that little whore! I should have drowned her when she was born. It's all because of the unlucky second son who had to stop me. Our whole family is ruined..."

"Shut up. I'm already annoyed. What's the point of saying this now? Just stay still."

Old man Xu was regretting it so much that his intestines turned green. He should have sold the Death Star to a brothel in the beginning. It was all because he was too soft-hearted back then. Now she had gained the upper hand. Look at the style of the people she brought back. He probably couldn't bully the second wife anymore.

When Old Man Xu thought of that face, he became so angry that his teeth itched. Why did they look so similar? Why was he always blessed by God!

Xu Mangen refused to accept it. He believed that one day his son would be able to surpass that lowly bastard. Just wait and see!

Xu Erzhu, who was separated by a wall, clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could go out and argue in person, but thinking of his daughter's instructions, he could only be patient.

"Brother Erzhu."

"Wife, you're awake. How are you? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? I'll go get you some water. Wait."

Xu Erzhu wanted to stand up but was held back by a pair of hands. He whispered, "Wife, what's wrong?"

"Brother Erzhu, I want to leave the Xu family."

Xu Erzhu was shocked and lowered his head dejectedly. After a long struggle, he nodded with difficulty. "Wife, I will find someone to write a divorce agreement. As for the children, I will give them to you. Don't worry, I will work hard to earn money and send it to you and the children when the time comes."

"Brother Erzhu, what are you talking about? I'm thinking about our whole family leaving, how can I leave you alone?"

"what?"

Xu Erzhu's eyes lit up and he lowered his head. "Wife, I can't leave. They would rather kill me than let me go. What you just said gives me some advice. I'll give you a divorce letter and the children a letter of severance. Then they'll have no reason to bother you and the children anymore."
