Chapter 314: Instead, It Became Worse

Zhao's expression stiffened, and she awkwardly turned her head away."Never mind, do whatever you want."Iron Pillar saw his mother leave, turned to beckon Spring Orchid who was hiding by the doorway, "...At this point, how could Old Master Zong dare to call out Zong Hu He was now lying in the courtyard, half dead and unconscious, his mind scattered.

We absolutely cannot let the villagers see Zong Hu's current state.

The elder's face darkened, and he roared angrily, "Are you all idle With water available, you shouldn't be cultivating the land properly. Instead, you're gossiping about other people's business relentlessly."

My little tiger is doing well. Why should I call him out for you to see

"This is our family business, you better stay out of it!"

Fang Jinshu coldly snorted, "If it involves human life, then it's not just your family matter anymore, Uncle Wang, am I right"

"That's right," the village head hastened to nod. "If your little tiger is truly well, just bring him out for everyone to see."

"Well, there's nothing more to say. Let's just go our separate ways."

While everyone's attention was focused on the elder, Wu, who had been silent all along, quietly slipped towards her own door.

Looking at the current situation, these people are determined to see Xiao Hu no matter what. She has to hurry back and hide Xiao Hu so they can't find him.

Just as she moved to the front door, Mu Yunyan caught sight of it with her sharp eyes.

"What's grandma sneaking around for"

Tie Zhu and Chang He hurriedly ran over and directly pushed open the main door of the old house. Lao Tai Wu didn't have time to stop them, and the three generations of Zong Lao's family didn't react at all.

Zong Hu, who was lying in the courtyard of the old house, suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.

Long He saw the situation and his face turned green with anger. He hurriedly shouted to Fang Jinxiu, "Sister-in-law Jinxiu, Brother Zong Hu is really about to die! He's just lying on the ground!"

The villagers were startled by the roar of the Chang He, and Elder Zong's face turned pale. By the time he ran back to shut the door, it was too late.

Wang Tiezhu, leading the villagers, had already blocked the door. Wang, the village head, led the way into the Zong family's courtyard.

At this time, several members of the Zong family were too preoccupied to attend to Wang Yan'er. Fang Jinshu helped her up, and the two followed each other into the courtyard.

Wang Yan'er hurriedly threw herself onto Zong Hu's body and burst into tears.

"Tiger brother, Tiger brother, I'm useless! I couldn't invite a doctor to save your life!"

This time, it was Wang, the village head's turn to wear a grave expression. He looked at Elder Zong and asked.

"What's going on"

"Didn't you say your Zong Hu was doing well"

Grandpa Zong couldn't answer right away, but Zong Pingkang, being clever, stepped forward and said, "Little Tiger might have fallen and hit his head in the courtyard just now. This has nothing to do with us."

The Elder glared at him, the foolish idiot!

Doesn't this give them a chance to find a doctor for Zong Hu

Someone shouted, "Fang Jinxiu is just a doctor, right Let her see for herself, falling on your head is a serious matter!"

Village Head Wang hurriedly beckoned to Fang Jinshu, “Jinshu, come quickly and show Zong Hu.”

Fang Jinshu knew that Zong Hu was fine; it was all a setup they had planned.

But the more she acted enthusiastically, the more likely it was that Elder Zong would see through her. So she didn't move and instead wore an expression as if she didn't want to get involved.

I dare not meddle in the affairs of their old house anymore, lest they find an excuse to extort money from me again. Now that Young Master Su has left, I have nowhere else to borrow fifty taels to give them.

As soon as the villagers heard this, they all pointed at the people in the old house and started whispering amongst themselves.

The elder's face was flushed red with anger.

"Do you even care about Zong Hu's life or death anymore Getting hit on the head can be serious, are you really just going to ignore this"

"If you don't care, what's the difference between this and killing him"

The village chief gritted his teeth as he spat out the words "taking my life," Elder Zong, unable to bear the pressure and terrified of being truly labeled a murderer, had no choice but to nod.

"Alright, let her have a look. Whether she lives or dies, we won't hold you responsible."

Only after Zong Lao spoke did Fang Jinshui reluctantly agree to enter the old house courtyard. She walked to Zong Hu's side and crouched down, feeling his pulse and examining him. Finally, she suddenly stood up with an angry expression on her face.

"Last time you asked for fifty taels, wasn't it to get Brother Zong Hu treated by a doctor for his arm"

"His arm injury not only hasn't healed, but has worsened!" and said, "We can get this done faster if we all work together than if you do it alone.""You must have a use for these stones."This was the first time Zongyu had received unconditional trust from the...
