laborate, just leave a slight trace leading deep into the mountains. This will keep these people trapped on the mountain for several days."Before coming to Lishui Town, I had already told County Magis...“Ayu! Stop!”

Just as things were about to escalate, Fang Jinshu shouted and stopped Zong Yu's actions.

She panted and ran over, snatching the dagger from his hand.

Heaven knows how nervous and scared she was when she saw what just happened.

"Are you crazy What are they, do you want me to rot in prison and become a widow"

Zhao shi had originally been terrified, until Fang Jinshu snatched the dagger from Zong Yu's hand, when she finally let out a breath. But just now, after hearing her words, Zhao shi immediately became angry again.

"Fang Jinxiu, how can you speak like that Who are you to say who is nothing"

"Listen here, if it weren't for the fact that you're young and have contributed something to the village, do you think I would let you live so comfortably!"

Fang Jinxiu wore a cold expression. She'd been feeling irritated and upset these past few days, and Zhao shi had the audacity to directly shove her nose into a hornet's nest.

Before, it was all because of Wang Village Head and Tie Zhu that Fang Jinshu gave Zhao Shi some leeway and a way to step down.

As long as she keeps to herself and lives a quiet life down the mountain, they can continue to stay out of each other's way.

Since she wasn't willing to live a good life, Fang Jinshu didn't want to see anyone else giving face anymore.

Her gaze shifted and landed directly on Hu Ailan.

"You're really something else, aren't you Not even bothering to take my words to heart, huh"

"Even if Zong Yu doesn't discipline you today, I won't let you get away with this."

Zongyu stood nervously beside his wife, hoping with all his might that she would give him some attention.

As if sensing something, Fang Jinxiu turned her head, her eyes softening slightly.

"What's this expression for Without me, I'll be bullied. What are you going to do when I leave you"

If other men heard this, they would surely be furious. Their macho egos wouldn't allow them to admit that they need protection from a woman.

He holds his wife in high regard.

"If I leave you, I'll be a bachelor for the rest of my life. Even if others bully me, I won't fight back."

When it came to coaxing his wife, Zong Yu finally showed some intelligence, realizing that his wife's emotions weren't directed at him. He took a bold step and held her hand, gripping it tightly in his palm.

"I swear on my life, I have never touched another woman."

"Dong'er could never be my son."

Fang Jinshi smiled. "Let's talk about this when we get home. Let's deal with the outsiders first."

Zong Yu nodded hurriedly. With Fang Jinshu by his side, his violent emotions seemed to be soothed at once.

If Fang Jinxiu hadn't arrived just now, he might have really killed Hu Ailan and thrown her out of the village.

Anyway, the outside is full of dead people now. What does it matter if she's one more

"Come on, I'd like to see how you plan to solve this."

"You two are getting out of hand, aren't you You really think I'm afraid of you I'm the village head's wife! What do you think you can do to me!"

Someone in the village saw Zhao and Fang Jinshu quarreling, so they hurried to report to Wang, the village head, in his field.

"Oh no, Village Head Wang! Your wife has gotten into another fight with Zong Yu's wife. Zong Yu is even threatening to use a dagger this time. This is serious!"

Upon hearing this, Village Head Wang's head went blank, and then a terrible headache struck him.

He immediately dropped what he was holding and ran home.

When the village head arrived, he just happened to hear Zhao's words and was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Does she think he and his son don't have enough busy and difficult days

Although Tiezhu worked for Fang Jinshu, he still had to work in his own fields every day after returning home.

Their father and son had always been understanding of how hard Zhao shi worked to keep the family going. She took care of everything at home, from the chores to the livestock, cooking three meals a day. Sometimes she even had to wake up early or go into the fields to bring them food.

So she didn't have to, like other women, become a man when her husband was too busy to work the fields, enduring the sun and wind.

Therefore, the farm work fell to the two of them. As he was also the village headman, all the trivial matters in the village had to be brought to him for resolution. He didn't have that much time to work the fields himself.

To be precise, all the hardships fell on his son Tiezhu's head. Fortunately, Tiezhu is a good child, filial and hardworking. No matter how hard or tiring it was, he never complained.

He and his child worked so hard to get by. He always worried about the village, wishing he could do more. Luckily, Zong Yu and Fang Jinxiu emerged as capable individuals who could help share the burden.

Now, every household in the village is pointing fingers at the couple. Why does his wife always seem to have it out for them

Is this because you think your life is too good and don't want it to continue

This time, Village Head Wang was truly furious, even considering divorce.e to inform the palace""To forcibly keep someone against their will, Mr. Gu, what kind of hospitality is this!"He glared at Fang Jinshu, and asked angrily, “Jinshu, tell me the truth, did Gu force you...
