always picking on him for no reason. He walked out the door first, turned back with a cold face and shouted angrily."Are you leaving or not If you don't leave now, you won't be allowed to come back fo...The village chief, seeing her so confident, put his worries aside. He even smiled before leaving.

"You young thing, you've got guts, more than any man I know. If you really buy that barren mountain, our whole village will depend on you to survive from then on."

Hearing this, Fang Jinshu merely smiled and remained silent.

Isn't it a bit premature to say this

Just now, Village Head Wang didn't think her buying the mountain was credible, did he

"Uncle Wang, why don't you go home and tidy up first We'll have dinner at my place tonight. A few days ago, Zongyu and I accidentally caught a big fish in the mountains. Tonight, I'll make a fish hotpot for everyone to celebrate the completion of the irrigation canal."

Wang, the village head, was delighted. He had never expected such good fortune.

He smiled and nodded in agreement.

I'd heard him, Tiezhu from his family, mention many times that Sister-in-law Jinxiu made delicious food. Village Head Wang didn't take it seriously, always thinking the boy was just too greedy.

But after hearing so much, his heart would always feel a little curious. He was genuinely quite interested in how delicious the meals at Fang Jinshui's house were.

When Wang, the village head, returned home and washed up, Zhao, his wife, who had already heard that Fang Jinshi was inviting them to dinner that evening, excitedly spread the news throughout the entire village.

Tiezhu probably didn't expect that his mother usually looked down on Jinshu, his sister-in-law, always acting as if she disliked her.

Yet, when he heard that Sister-in-law Jinxiu was inviting their whole family to dinner, he got so excited that the whole village knew about it.

While Wang, the village head, was washing up, Zhao kept urging him on.

"Hey, are you done washing yet You're only using a little bit of water. Be more thrifty! If we get there late, all the good food will be gone."

"Hurry up!"

Tie Zhu said angrily, “Mother, Jin Xiu’s sister-in-law’s family wouldn’t do this. We haven’t arrived yet, they couldn’t have eaten first.”

"And could you please speak a little quieter Your sister-in-law only invited our family, and that's because of me and your father. Please don't shout so loud that the whole village finds out, okay"

"Otherwise, the villagers would think that Sister Jinxiu was bribing our family. Tonight's dinner is just a simple celebration of finishing the water canal project."

Zhao only didn't understand these ins and outs.

She gave an indignant pout. In her eyes, this was proof that Fang Jinshu wanted to curry favor with their family.

Just like that orchid, she shows up at their doorstep every other day, constantly coming around to ask for favors and it's so annoying.

Since it's a good opportunity tonight, she might as well ask Fang Jinshu what she really means.

The person who saved themselves doesn't take care of themselves, letting that little bitch come to their house every day demanding food and drink. What is this even about

"Alright, alright, I got it. Let your father hurry up."

Tiezhu knew his mother's temperament well, and talking to her wouldn't be much use. He just hoped that tonight he could pay more attention to her movements and get her to eat more and talk less.

Just to avoid causing any more trouble.

After Wang, the village head, washed himself clean, he rummaged through his closet and put on his most expensive and respectable suit.

This alone speaks volumes about how much he values Fang Jinxiu's invitation to dinner.

He's going to have to treat her right if he wants to buy a mountain for her. That girl is a big shot!

By comparison, this village head is nothing.

If the son could follow her in the future, he would surely have a bright future.

After Wang, the village head, had finished dressing himself up, he opened the door and came out. Zhao Shi and Tie Zhu were surprised to see him dressed so formally.

"Father, Sister-in-law Jinxiu just invited us for a meal. It's not like we're attending someone's wedding. You don't have to dress so formally, do you"

The village head angrily tapped his son's head, looking at him dressed in a short jacket and worn straw sandals. His face immediately turned stern.

“Look at what you're wearing! Don't you have any other clothes”

"Go back and change into something presentable."

Tie Zhu scratched his head, puzzled. “Father, are you alright Isn’t this how I usually dress Jinshu’s sister has seen me like this before.”

"Wang the village head kicked him angrily, "Just go! What are you babbling about"

"Now listening to dad is the right thing to do."

"Son," said Wang, the village head, patting Tiezhu's shoulder, "Our village might be in for a big change soon."ree hundred taels of silver notes, Fang Jinxiu stretched out his hand and before giving them away, he asked."Do you keep your word"Fang Jinxiu pinched the other end of the silver note and pulled it di...
