Li felt guilty for a moment, but still wanted to be tough. The next second, Xie Chengjin casually pulled out a wooden stick and approached Li and Su Zhonghuai.

"What...what are you going to do?" Li's voice was so sharp that it pierced people's eardrums.

"Second Aunt, you don't want things to get too ugly, do you? You know what's missing, and so do I. Either return the item to me intact, or you pay the price. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that this stick will fall on either of you."

Su Zhizhi's tone became even colder, and she even threatened Li directly.

Li swallowed her saliva and stared at the stick in fear. After all, she was a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Su Zhizhi was so strong that Li was also afraid of him.

No matter how reluctant she was, Li still returned the things she had hidden to Su Zhizhi. After counting them, Su Zhizhi warned the Li couple, "You'd better move out now, otherwise... you will have to think about the consequences."

After saying that, as if to scare the two of them, Xie Chengjin directly smashed the stick against the wall next to him. The stick was very thick, but it broke in just one hit. Li and Su Zhonghuai couldn't imagine how painful it would be if this thing hit them.

After driving the two away, Su Zhizhi finally breathed a sigh of relief. She locked the door carefully and they returned to town.

After handing the things over to Meng, Su Zhizhi was not idle either. Although she did not plan to return to the village, she did not want to see her house being occupied by others.

She simply found a man and made some big-character posters with the words "Auspicious House for Rent" written on them. She wanted to rent out the houses in the village to make some extra money.

Su Zhizhi posted big-character posters in the streets and alleys of the village. Before long, almost everyone in the village knew that Su Zhizhi's family was going to rent out their house.

The fact that Su Zhonghuai and Li were driven out by Su Zhizhi was also widely known. At the beginning, people in the village thought that Su Zhonghuai and his wife were not decent. Su Zhizhi's family had only been away for a few days, but they couldn't wait to occupy the house.

After Su Zhizhi and Xie Chengjin finished pasting the things, they planned to take a rest in the house. Before they could rest for long, the door was knocked open by someone.

Su Zhizhi's face was full of annoyance. Seeing this, Xie Chengjin took the initiative to get up and go out to check. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the old lady standing outside with Su Zhonghuai and Li.

The old lady's face was originally full of impatience and contempt, but the moment the door opened, her expression instantly became aggrieved. Those who didn't know would think that the old lady had suffered a great injustice. Even Su Zhonghuai and his wife who followed behind her were full of resentment and grievance on their faces.

Xie Chengjin was silent for a moment, then spoke indifferently, "What are you doing here today, old lady?"

The old lady was about to explode, but when she saw that the person coming out was not Su Zhizhi, she froze for a moment, then fiercely shouted at Xie Chengjin, "Why are you here? Where's that damn girl Su Zhizhi? Where's she? Make her come out!"

Before Xie Chengjin could say anything, Su Zhizhi's voice came from behind him, "I didn't know that you, Grandma, missed me so much. When I returned to the village, you even brought my second uncle and second aunt to visit me. I am so touched."

Su Zhizhi's voice was light, and if you listened carefully, there was a hint of sarcasm in it.

The old lady was also a smart person. How could she not hear Su Zhizhi's voice-over? Her face was gloomy and unfriendly.

Su Zhizhi walked slowly to the door, motioning Xie Chengjin to make some space, and she herself stood over, with no intention of letting the old lady and her people in.

There was a flash of hatred in the old lady's eyes, but Su Zhizhi's action was exactly what she wanted, and a sinister smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Everyone in the village was paying special attention to the excitement, especially Su Zhizhi's family. When they saw the old lady and her people coming to their door, the villagers ran around to tell each other, fearing that they would miss a good show.

They had all seen the rental notices posted everywhere in the village and were waiting to see what was happening.

When the old lady saw a lot of people gathered around her, her expression changed immediately, and she looked aggrieved. To people who didn't know the situation, the old lady looked like she was being bullied.

Su Zhizhi saw the old lady pretending, raised her eyebrows, as if she saw something interesting, but did not stop the old lady's actions.

The old lady cried with tears and snot, and between the lines she expressed her difficulties. She also began to imply that Su Zhizhi was unfilial and disrespectful to her elders.

After the old lady cried, the people around seemed to have forgotten how the old lady and Su Zhonghuai and others had treated Su Zhizhi's family before. They began to condemn Su Zhizhi's family for being unfilial and called them ungrateful.

If only Su Zhizhi was scolded, she might not feel anything, but that group of people just didn't let Meng go. Su Zhizhi had sharp ears and her face immediately turned gloomy.

She ignored the old lady and quickly locked onto the person who had just mentioned Meng. The next second, Su Zhizhi walked towards that person.

The man happened to meet Su Zhizhi's gaze, and inexplicably felt guilty. He wanted to leave, but when he thought of so many people around him, he was no longer afraid, as if he was sure that Su Zhizhi would not do anything to him.

Su Zhizhi reached out and grabbed the man. Her face looked very ugly, and her words were full of coldness.

"What did you just say?"

The man felt extremely embarrassed when he saw himself being grabbed by the collar, and without thinking, he retorted, "Why, was I wrong?"

"Oh, we've all lived in the village for so many years. I think you've all seen how the old lady and Su Zhonghuai's family treated us. How can you say such things?"

Su Zhizhi couldn't understand why some people could talk while standing without any back pain?

"So what? They are your elders after all. Isn't it the younger generation's duty to serve the elders? Are you trying to make excuses for your unfilial behavior?" The man continued stubbornly.

Su Zhizhi's expression calmed down. "Since you said that, I think your consciousness must be very high. Repaying evil with kindness should be very easy for you."

"In that case, I hope you also have relatives like them. I hope you can be like you just said. No matter how they treat you, you must always treat them well."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Su Zhizhi's tone. After she said this, everyone present fell silent. As bystanders, they naturally could not empathize with her and even felt that what Su Zhizhi did was excessive. However, if they were in Su Zhizhi's shoes, they would not act like this if they asked themselves honestly.
