I Became a Sugar Mama to an Ancient General during a Famine! - Chapter 46

Chapter 46: Transferring River Water

Seeing that Ye Mumu hadn’t exited her vehicle, Liang Cuihua began striking the hood with her cane.

Though the heavy-duty pickup was sturdy, the repeated blows were chipping away its paint.

What Ye Mumu found most unbearable was the shrill buzzing sound emanating from the impacts.

Liang Cuihua, Uncle, Second Aunt, and Fourth Uncle were all berating her.

Uncle loudly accused her:

“Ye Mumu, you heartless wretch! Everything you have now was stolen from Ye Xin.”

“Your father’s assets were meant for Ye Xin. Yet you hired lawyers to sue us for the house and car.”

“You even want to reclaim the villa your cousin bought! How is he supposed to marry without a home?”

“You got your cousin imprisoned for a week. Now, transfer your company shares to him immediately and apologize properly.”

“He’ll take care of you, considering you’re his uncle’s daughter.”

Grandmother was shouting, “You worthless piece of trash, get out and kneel before us!”

“You think hiding in your car means we can’t touch you? I’ll have them dismantle the car today, and you must kneel before me.”

Second Aunt, smiling maliciously, played the family card.

“Mumu, dear, suing us with a lawyer was wrong.”

“The house and car your father gave us belong to us. How can you take them back?”

“You’ve strained our family relations. When you marry, without your maternal family’s support, what will you do if you’re bullied?”

“Just withdraw the lawsuit. We’re all relatives; why make such a fuss?”

Fourth Uncle resorted to unreasonable demands, with a hint of threat.

“Even my brother didn’t dare ask us to return the money, so how dare you?”

“Let me tell you, we don’t have money to give, but we have our lives. If you insist on suing us, I’ll lie down under your car wheels today. You can…”

He pointed at his face, threatening fiercely, “You can run over me right here!”

Look at these insatiable wolves…

The benefits her parents provided weren’t enough; they treated her parents’ property as their own.

Now, they even dared to threaten her!

Ye Mumu could no longer tolerate it.

She slipped the property manager a 10,000-yuan red envelope.

“Call some people and drive them away for me.”

Taking the bribe, the property manager immediately responded, “Certainly, Miss Ye. We’ll drive them away right away!”

Over a dozen security guards at the gate were just waiting for the property manager’s word.

At his command, all the guards sprang into action, brandishing batons as they approached the group.

Their demeanor was intimidating, reminiscent of gangsters.

Seeing the security guards emerge, the old lady’s hand trembled, and she dropped her cane.

She was traumatized by being driven away by security.

Uncle shouted, “What do you think you’re doing? What are you up to?”

“Don’t come any closer, I’m warning you, we’ll call the police!”

The security team leader chuckled, “The property owner hasn’t called the police despite being harassed by you for days. What makes you think you have the guts to call the police?”

“Brothers, take them away. We’ll have a late-night snack after this is done!”

Two security guards each dragged away one person.

The relatives were furious and wanted to fight back but were afraid of the batons in the guards’ hands.

They could only curse at Ye Mumu but didn’t dare confront the security guards.

The property manager, wearing a suit and glasses, approached the car with a smile.

Ye Mumu rolled down her window.

“Miss Ye, being harassed by them constantly isn’t right. Haven’t you considered a permanent solution?”

“They owe my family millions. I sued them to get the money back, and they dare to come and threaten me!”

Ye Mumu wouldn’t have gone to such extremes if they hadn’t pushed her too far!

If they had shown a better attitude, apologized, and promised not to harass her again, she might have let them off.

But since they insisted on making a scene, they couldn’t blame her for retaliating.

The property manager continued, “100,000 yuan, Miss Ye, and I guarantee they’ll never dare approach you again.”

Ye Mumu looked intently at the property manager, “How would you do it? They have no shame and don’t listen to reason…”

“Hehe, we have our ways. We’ll find people to put bags over their heads, take them to a secluded place, and give them a beating.”

“If they still don’t behave, we’ll post information about their children’s schools, classes, homeroom teachers, photos… Most people will behave after this step.”

“This method isn’t 100% effective; some are cunning and sly.”

“That’s also manageable. For those who are lecherous, we’ll dig up records of their affairs or visits to prostitutes and send them to their wives and bosses. That’ll make them behave.”

“If we can’t find anything, we can set up a trap with a prostitute!”

“For those who aren’t lecherous, we can fabricate evidence of bribery, fake invoices, or kickbacks.”

“I’m familiar with all the property owners in this community. We have connections in this city.”

“The third step would cost at least 500,000 yuan, as it involves using connections and treating people to meals.”

“But for these relatives of yours, we won’t need to go to the third step. They’ll behave after the first step. That’s why I’m only charging you 100,000 yuan.”

Ye Mumu carefully examined the property manager.

The community had over 200 villas, with expensive property prices and high management fees.

Those who could live here were among the upper class of the city.

She transferred 100,000 yuan to the property manager, “If they report to the police, they won’t implicate me, right?”

“Impossible. We have people specifically to take the blame. It won’t be traced back to you.”

“Alright, are you really in property management?”

She thought he seemed more like a gangster, with such practiced criminal methods!

The property manager chuckled a few times but didn’t answer.

Someone opened the villa’s main gate, and Ye Mumu drove in.

Ye Mumu felt she couldn’t continue living in this community.

Setting aside the possibility of the property owner being linked to the underworld…

With these vicious relatives, surrounding and stalking her every day, her secret would eventually be exposed sooner or later.

She had to move out of the villa tomorrow morning.

Thinking of this, she drove into the courtyard and carried a vase to the riverside in the back garden.

A few days ago, there was a flood, and water had submerged the back yard up to the garden wall.

The water level had receded these days but still reached the edge of the garden.

After transferring many items, she no longer felt dizzy or experienced rapid heartbeats…

She wanted to test how much energy she would use for this transfer.

Instead of using a water pump, she used her mind to directly gather river water into the vase, transporting it over.

A water pump was too slow…

If she could directly transferred river water, she could send more water.

She wrote a note.

「Zhan Chengyin, find a river. I want to transfer river water over…」

When Zhan Chengyin saw the note, his brow furrowed deeply.

Transfer river water?

Is that really possible?

Is the river water in the future clear? Is it drinkable?

At night, the water Ye Mumu sent over, if used sparingly, could meet the needs of the entire city.

But for bathing, washing clothes, washing faces… it was far from enough.

When soldiers returned from the battlefield covered in blood, they could only wipe themselves with a damp cloth.

They didn’t dare waste a single drop of water.

If only there was a large amount of water available.

Ye Mumu stood by the riverside. The river was no longer muddy, having returned to its clarity from before the heavy rain.

At night, she could see small fish and shrimp playing in the water.

Soon, a note came from Zhan Chengyin.

「goddess, I have found a dried-up riverbed. It’s the largest river flowing into Zhen Guan.」

「I’ve had people block the upstream and downstream. You can transfer water now!」

Seeing this, Ye Mumu took the vase to the riverside and immersed it directly in the river, letting the river water submerge the vase.

She used her mind to gather all the river water, making it pour into the vase.

She watched as the water gushed in, forming a vortex…

The river’s water level dropped, then dropped further…

In half a minute, it had dropped enough to expose the mouth of the vase.

The vase seemed to have an absorbing power, continuously swallowing river water, more and more.

The river’s water level dropped by one centimeter, two centimeters, five centimeters…

Ten centimeters!

The water level receded more and more rapidly.

Soon it retreated from the garden, exposing the pebble-paved path.

It exposed the railings, then the rocks.

The water level dropped by one meter, reaching the edge of the riverbank.

It was only at this point that Ye Mumu felt dizzy, having reached her transfer limit.

She stopped…
