Chapter 455: Who Wants to Argue?

could knock him unconscious to help Zong Yu clean up.When the two returned home, it was already completely dark.Fāng Jǐnxiù and the Mǔ family had lit oil lamps in the house, waiting for the two broth...A glimmer of satisfaction flashed across Hu Ai-lan's eyes, but the moment she stood up, her expression shifted to one of worry.

"Aunt Zhao, let's just forget it."

"Now the whole village relies on Elder Brother Zongyu's family for food. I know you're worried about me, but this might upset Fang Jinshu. What if she holds a grudge against you and gets your family into trouble"

The more sensible Hu Ai Lan was, the angrier Zhao Shi became.

"You foolish girl, you've been taken advantage of so much and you're still thinking about this"

"The whole village is now siding with Fang Jinshi, and will anyone else speak up for you If Zhao's wife doesn't speak for you anymore, you'll be in deep trouble."

Hu Ai-lan bowed her head; that was all she had wanted from Zhao.

"But Auntie Zhao, Brother Zongyu was not in his right mind at the time. He said he didn't remember anything. And I... I don't have any evidence either. They wouldn't believe me."

"Maybe they'll even say I falsely accused Brother Zongyu. Me... if everyone in the village knew about this, what face would I have left to live"

Zhao thought to herself, after all, a daughter losing her innocence was not something to be proud of. What if Zong Yu really refused to marry Hu She was still so young, she couldn't possibly remain unmarried for the rest of her life.

"Girl, tell me, do you or don't you want to marry that Zongyu boy"

Hu Ai-lan blushed shyly and then nodded.

"Well, since you want to, then we have to go all out." Zhao whispered a few words in Hu Ai-lan's ear.

After hearing this, Hu Ailan was stunned, biting her lower lip with a difficult expression.

"I don't care, it's just you, Zhao Shu. You offended Fang Jinshu for me, won't that cause trouble for Uncle Wang"

Zhao Ru Fang smiled, "Don't be silly. Your Uncle Wang and I have been married for a lifetime. He wouldn't divorce me for some outsider."

"At most, he'll just grumble a couple of times. Aunt Zhao will be fine."

"If you do this, you will have no way out. It's going to be hard for you to get married again in the future."

Hu Ailan shook her head. "It's nothing, Zhao Ma. I never intended to marry anyone else. I, I belong to Zong Yu in this life and the next."

"If he doesn't want me, I'll stay in the old house my whole life to take care of grandma. That's how I'll repay him for his kindness."

Hu Ailan's words were so sincere, Zhao shi was truly heartbroken, constantly calling her a silly girl.

"Go home and wait. Don't go out these days. In a few days, that kid Zong Yu will definitely come to your door personally."

"Just wait until you walk through the door as a bride," Zhao said with solemn conviction.

Hu Ailan's face was full of gratitude as she thanked them. The moment she turned, the triumph in her eyes almost overflowed.

Fan Jinshi, let's see how you handle this time.

Fang Jinshi, who was suddenly washing medicinal herbs by the stream, sneezed loudly.

"Achoo!" she said, dabbing her nose with her sleeve.

"Who is talking bad about me"

She muttered to herself, and not far behind her, in the bushes, Zongyu had been silently guarding her.

After finding Fang Jinshi, Zong Yu didn't want to avoid explaining things to his wife. He just... scratched his head frantically. The key was that he didn't know what had angered her.

He was the one who kept Hu Ai-lan behind, and that was also to make things more peaceful at the old house.

If Grandma makes a fuss all day long, Third Uncle won't be able to take care of the family and work to make money.

He also realized that his daughter-in-law was already busy with managing the estate and clearing land, and didn't want to add any more burdens to her plate.

After Hu Ailan left, grandma and the third aunt both had people to take care of them, and the third uncle could work with peace of mind. Isn't this a happy ending for everyone

Before Zong Yu figured out why his daughter-in-law was angry, he decided not to appear and risk making her angrier. But he also didn't feel comfortable leaving her only son alone in the mountains.

So he kept a distance and stayed behind them.

Fan Jinshu washed the few herbs she had harvested and put them in her basket. She stood up and planned to continue searching nearby.

She didn't want to go home now, afraid that the anger in her heart hadn't subsided. If she met Zongyu, she would inevitably argue with him again.

Who wants to argue Let's just cool down first.

She walked forward, Zong Yu quietly following behind. Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the bushes.

Fang Jinxiu's heart skipped a beat, and she nervously swallowed.

She remembered that Ah Yu used to say that animals in the mountains often came here to drink water.

I don't know what kind of animal I'll encounter this time. It would be fine if it was a small animal, but if I came across a wild beast, that would be terrible!his aunt had died and that Brother Zonghu was going to report it, and run away ahead of time."Wang Yan'er hurriedly asked, "What should we do now Should we just let our mother-in-law's death go uninv...
