Chapter 19 You Don't Deserve to Have Him Kneel

o of them hadn't forgotten the purpose of their trip. Zong Yu led Fang Jinxiu to this mountain stream and pool. There was a water source here, and animals would surely come to drink.As long as they st...Zongping rushed towards Zongyu, his face menacing, wanting to give him a lesson.

Zongyu wasn't truly powerless to resist the people from the old house. Taking care of them would be much simpler than hunting.

One punch at a time, it's simple.

Mu cried out nervously, "Don't."

She knows her own son. If Zong Yu wanted to harm someone, not just Zong Pingkang, even all the people in the Zong family combined wouldn't be his match.

When Zongyu heard his mother's voice, his body froze.

Zongping found the opportunity and was just about to hit him hard.

Fang Jinxiu couldn't bear to see Zong Yu being beaten, she ran forward and pulled the person away in time.

"Aren't you stupid, still standing there hitting him You can't fight back or dodge"

In her panic, she lost all restraint and blurted out her true feelings.

Zong Yu lowered his head to look at her, the fierceness on his face hadn't completely subsided yet. Although Fang Jinxiu wasn't afraid of him, under the moonlight and with his current expression, he was truly intimidating.

She trembled, her pupils shrinking, a flicker of fear crossing her face.

Zongyu, upon seeing this, hurriedly averted his gaze, turning his head to the side and trying to compose himself.

Zong Ping dashed forward but missed. Not giving up, he turned to try again, this time Fang Jinxiu stood beside Zong Yu.

"The heavens have turned upside down, you unfilial wretch!"

"Kneel down and apologize to your mother."

He shouted loudly and moved with great speed.

Hardly had Fang Jinshu's words left his mouth when Zong Pingkang grabbed an object and hurled it over again.

It was too late to hide.

Zongyu pulled Fang Jinshi into his arms and, with one hand, accurately grabbed the object in Zong Pingkang's hand. It turned out to be a hard stone.

If this were to be hit, the head would surely burst open.

Fang Jinshu shrank into Zong Yu's embrace, her eyes wide as she stared at the stone in his hand, so close to her. A chill ran down her spine.

zong yi's face was cold, he tightened his grip, and the stone in zong pingkang's hand fell to the ground, his hand aching and screaming.

When Old Mrs. Wu saw her eldest son being bullied, she immediately scrambled to her feet and rushed forward, screaming to pry open Zongyu's hand.

She wasn't hurt at all, she would have come to her senses and acted quickly.

"You little brat, you ate a lion's heart and leopard's gall, daring to defy your great-uncle's opponent."

"You ungrateful things! I shouldn't have softened my heart and given you this old house in the first place. I should have thrown you out of the village to fend for yourselves!"

"Let go of your uncle, you let go!"

Zongping Kang beat Zongyu's iron-like palm desperately, crying out in pain, "Mother, it hurts!"

"You little brat, let go of my hand."

"Today, I'll beat you to death if you don't take my last name."

Zong Bai helped Mu Shi stand up and hide behind her elder brother. Mu Shi looked worried. She always told her sons to be more respectful towards the people in their ancestral home, saying it was for the sake of her second son's future.

He didn't want to ruin his career path for the imperial examinations because of his reputation.

This is not merely for her own selfish desires.

Only when her son passed the imperial examinations could she hope to go to the capital to find her husband, Zong Pingchuan.

Even if he's truly dead, I have to find his remains and bring them back so he can rest in peace.

For so many years, her obsession has also affected her sons.

< The eldest son, Zongyu, just knew her thoughts and that's why he endured the people in the old house again and again. >

Watching her son, who is so big and strong, being bullied like this, even his daughter-in-law couldn't stand it. Mu Shi felt guilty in her heart, it was all her fault.

She can't afford to make another mistake.

Mu's struggled free from her two sons' grasp and stood up, a newfound firmness replacing the previous weakness in her expression.

"My eldest son has done nothing wrong."

He's right, you don't deserve to have him kneel down!

Both Zong Yu and his younger brother, including Fang Jinxiu, looked at Mu Shi in surprise. Zong Yu's expression was even more complex.

"Mother."

He let go of Zong Pingkang, only then realizing he hadn't held back and had hurt his uncle.

Mu walked to her eldest son's side. Her mother-in-law, Wu, was guarding her own son; could she possibly bear to see Zongyu continue to be humiliatedr the poison in Gu Feng's body is completely cleared, I will definitely host a grand banquet to express my gratitude."Fang Jinshi smiled, said a few polite words, and then left the room.The first thin...
