dered the matter from the perspective of reputation and its potential gains and losses.The villagers didn't want to associate with Zongyu. Even if Wang, the village head, showed up, they might not lis..."Jinxiu, are you alright"

Zongyu clutched her shoulders with both hands, his face etched with urgency, fearing he had arrived too late and his wife was injured.

Fang Jinshu momentarily seemed a little stunned.

She just thought she was hallucinating, hearing Zong Yu's voice. Unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes, the person who saved her was really Zong Yu.

For just a few seconds, she hesitated before Fang Jinshu sprang into Zong Yu's arms, burying her face deeply in his chest.

"Where did you go!" The voice was muffled, with a hint of grievance.

Upon hearing his daughter-in-law's sobbing voice, Zongyu was beside himself with worry.

Originally there was some hesitation, hands didn't know whether to hug or not, but now they hugged the person tightly without any hesitation.

His big hand kept gently patting Fang Jinxiu's back, his voice softer than ever before.

"I, I went to the county town. I was supposed to be back on time, but I encountered some unexpected things on the way, so I'm a day late."

"What's wrong What happened"

"How did you end up in the woods"

Zongyu was a bit upset with his younger brother, so he left home for a day. Zongbei actually let Jinshu go into the mountains alone

Just now, if he hadn't arrived in time, Jinxiu would have been hit by that beast long ago.

The moment he thought of this, he became even more nervous. He couldn't bear to listen to Fang Jinshu's answer, so he lifted her from his arms.

His face was incredibly serious, "Let me see if you're hurt."

Zong Yu’s voice was a bit tight. He only wanted to know if his wife was hurt, but why were so many inappropriate images appearing in his mind

How could he be thinking about these things at this time Zongyu scolded himself inwardly for being a beast.

Fang Jinshu just went through something so dangerous, her mind is still a little muddled.

I only paid attention to what Zong Yu said about going to the county town. I didn't really listen to the rest.

Zongyu saw that she wasn't reacting, her gaze still a little dazed.

Although the daughter-in-law looks cute and adorable, he's more worried.

This is different from her usual self. Did she get hurt in the head

He could no longer concern himself with other matters. He reached out and unbuttoned Fang Jinshi's collar, carefully examining her from head to toe until he found two scratches on her calf caused by branches. Only then did the stone in his heart finally settle.

Fāng Jǐnxiù had come to her senses the moment he started to paw at her clothes.

I wanted to avoid it, but then I thought, Zongyu wouldn't be the kind of person to take advantage of someone's misfortune.

She saw that his expression was serious, like a scientist conducting research, his eyes scanning her body everywhere, but without the slightest hint of impropriety. In an instant, she understood what he was doing.

Fang Jinshi endured the shyness and let him check. After the check was over, she put her clothes back on, and both of their cheeks were flushed red.

"You need to apply medicine to the wound on your leg when you get back." Zong Yu's voice was dry, a little unnatural.

Fāng Jǐnxiù clutched at her collar, humming softly.

At this time, Zong Bai and Tie Zhu couldn't find Fang Jinshu anywhere, nor could they see any trace of the wild boar. So they boldly expanded their search area.

From within the forest came Zong Bai's urgent voice, "Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law, where are you"

This child's voice is about to break from crying.

At the sound of his brother's voice, Zongyu instantly came to his senses. His expression grew serious and a hint of anger flashed across his face.

He helped Fang Jinshu up, and as soon as the two stood up, Zong Bai and Tie Zhu saw them.

"Brother!"

Fāng Jǐnxiù waved goodbye to the two people.

Tiezhu pulled the overjoyed Zongbai over, who ran towards them excitedly.

Zong Bai only had his elder brother and sister-in-law in his eyes. He rushed forward and hugged Zong Yu, bursting into tears directly.

"Big bro, that's great you guys are all okay, I was really scared."

"Fantastic, fantastic."

Seeing his younger brother crying like that, Zongyu's words of blame died on his lips.

Either out of pity, she softened and rubbed his head, sighing helplessly.

"Why is a man crying, how are you all in the mountains, tell me what's going on."

Tie Zhu was the first to notice what was happening on the ground. He saw that the wild boar, which had been chasing them for a long time, lay motionless beside them, and exclaimed in surprise.

"Brother Zongyu, you killed the wild boar!"e ones who need their help. Even Jinxiu said that digging the canal here won't affect your access to water. What else could you possibly be dissatisfied with!”Shouldn't we just make them angry and cut...
