were wealthy, she might consider selling herself.Look at the yard in front of you. The Zong family is worse off than she was before.She'd be better off settling in the village, finding a reliable man...Fang Jinshu's words had barely fallen when the Zong Yu and Zong Bai brothers returned, having come up the path from the mountainside.

Zong Bai still had a basket of wild vegetables in his hand, probably collected while he was digging the irrigation ditch.

The soil in the water source area tends to be more humid, and the plants grow well with a variety of species.

These past few days, the people who went up the mountain to dig irrigation ditches almost all carried baskets of wild vegetables home when they left. Some even had a taste for eating insects and collected quite a lot of meat grubs to take back with them.

Even a mosquito is flesh, after all, it's edible.

When going out in the morning, Fang Jinshu specially told Zong Bai to absolutely not bring bugs back home, as they weren't hungry.

Yesterday's snake meat, it's estimated that they could eat for about ten days, even counting Zongyu's appetite.

The weather is hot, meat can only be stored for so many days at most.

Upon seeing his daughter-in-law, Zong Yu quickened his pace considerably.

"Back, are you tired from work today" Fang Jinshu handed Zongyu a clean sweat cloth to wipe his face.

The injured hand was deliberately hidden behind the back.

She felt she couldn't keep it hidden, but, maybe she could keep it hidden for a while.

"Not tired." Zong Yu's answer was always these two words.

She had never heard him complain of being tired.

"Come in and have dinner, we've been waiting for you."

Zong Bai had already gone to the kitchen ahead of time, wanting to put things down.

He saw Su Yusheng sitting in the courtyard, his breath ragged.

"How are you still at my house"

zong yulian walked over to help and took the basket from her second brother's hands. Both siblings looked at su yusheng with the same look of disdain.

"His sister-in-law told him to leave it."

Zong Bai was puzzled, and he turned to look at Fang Jinxiu.

"Sister-in-law, why are you keeping him"

"This person has no good intentions!"

Su Yusheng's politeness was only directed at Fang Jinxiu, the only one who could save his life. Others were not worthy of a smile from him.

"That means you two brothers got lucky. If Master Fang hadn't gotten married, someone like you wouldn't be worthy of marrying a woman as exceptional as Master Fang."

What she does is none of your business.

His words left Zong Bai speechless.

In the distance, Zongyu's eyes also flashed.

"You, you're talking nonsense, what's wrong with our family"

"My sister-in-law and my older brother have a great relationship, don't even try to drive a wedge between them!"

The two of them started arguing like fighting roosters as soon as they met. Zong Yulian had completely lost her love goggles for Su Yuseng at this point and was helping her second brother scold Su Yuseng fiercely.

Fan Jinshu's head ached, she raised her hand to her forehead and for a moment forgot to continue hiding her injured arm.

Zong Yu's eyes were so sharp that he immediately saw her arm, which was wrapped up like a baseball bat, and nervously grabbed her wrist and asked.

"What's going on"

"Are you hurt"

How are you hurt

Fang Jinxiu annoyed closed her eyes, Ah, **, for a moment forgot this matter, and just raised her arm.

It's all those immature kids' fault, they're so old yet still argue like little schoolchildren.

She had never seen Zong Yu speak so many questions at once, and she smiled awkwardly.

My mind raced, trying to come up with an excuse that would save Su Yusheng's dog's life while also preventing Zong Yu from becoming too worried or angry.

Before she could come up with a reason, she heard Zongyu speak first.

"Jinxiu, don't lie to me."

He narrowed his eyes and glared at Su Yusheng in the distance, his tone noticeably colder.

It was he who hurt you.

Fang Jinshu's heart skipped a beat. Zong Yu's damned intuition was really sharp.

He wasn't asking her, she hadn't said anything yet, this was clearly a statement of affirmation.Fang Jinshi's voice turned sharp, and the little boy's tears started flowing like a faucet had been turned on."Oh, Yuanbao, Yuanbao doesn't want to make Mama unhappy."But Yuánbǎo didn't want other chi...
