Chapter 254: Mountain Stream

hand to stop him."I'm fine. It's dark on the mountain roads at night, and we ran out of torches. I tripped and scraped myself on some branches, but it's just a superficial injury."Zong Bai's eyes tur...Zhong Yu immediately nodded, taking his wife's hand and continuing forward, still holding an unlit torch in his hand.

Fang Jinxiu had been curious for a long time, he wanted to take her somewhere.

"What's so mysterious about this place Couldn't you tell me beforehand"

Zongyu scratched his head and said, "Do you remember what happened a few days ago when I got lost in the mountains"

Fang Jinshi naturally remembered, she even thought Zongyu had something happen to him and wanted to mobilize the whole village to find him.

"Remember, you said you found something on the mountain, didn't you" she ventured tentatively.

Zongyu nodded, "Yes, that day I accidentally fell into a mountain ravine and was trapped inside, so I didn't come back all night."

Fang Jinxiu's eyes widened in surprise, "A mountain stream Did you find a water source inside"

Zongyu smiled, a hint of pride in his eyes. How could his wife be so smart, guessing it right away.

"Yes, there is water inside, and more than the villagers found at their source."

"Last time you said you wanted to take a relaxing bath, I thought about taking you to see it."

Fang Jinxiu's heart pounded with excitement. She had discovered another water source!

"Apart from you, who else knows about this"

Zong Yi said, "Currently, there's only you and me."

Fang Jinshi was stunned. "You only told me one person"

He's been back for days, and nobody said anything about such a big thing until now. The first thing he thought of was taking her to take a bath.

Fang Jinshu happily hugged him, "Are you so fond of me"

On this matter, Zong Yu has never been ashamed to admit, but instead, he has emphasized it repeatedly.

"As I said, from now on, you'll be in charge of everything in the household. I'll tell you about anything to do with the water source first, and it's up to you whether or not to tell anyone else."

Her nose was a little sore, touched by emotion. This silly fool, how could he be so easily deceived

"If I were a swindler, you'd probably be left with nothing. "

"I'm willing," Zongyu said with a smile.

It's too much, Fang Jinshu felt her heart couldn't take it anymore if she continued talking.

"Then take me there quickly! If it gets too dark, I won't be able to see anything good."

The two quickened their pace towards that direction. In difficult terrain, Zong Yu carried Fang Jinxiu on his back and trudged through. Actually, the distance wasn't very far, it was just that the road was a bit hard to walk.

The entrance to the mountain stream was hidden in a slightly lower area. Zongyu stood on the periphery and pointed to a high ground.

"At that time, I took a shortcut from there to go home, intending to save some time and come back quickly."

But when it got dark, his foot slipped and he fell from the top. Luckily, there was water at the bottom of the ravine, and it wasn't too high, so he was fine.

Although Zong Yu was speaking lightly now, Fang Jinshu heard it and was startled.

Even Lian Zongyu, who was so familiar with the terrain of the mountains, could get lost here. This shows how dangerous the mountains are.

And wanting to go from the village to the outside world, one must pass through the mountains. The road is so difficult, and it will also be a problem for the safety of our family members in the future.

It can't be that we always rely on reputation to go in and out.

Without him, everyone felt anxious every time they went in and out of the mountains.

Fang Jinshi suddenly had a thought about repairing the road, but she only considered it for a moment. She didn't have any money right now, and things outside were quite unstable.

Paving the road is not an urgent matter, and it's actually safer not to repair them.

So she put that thought aside for now, and would bring up the road repair when it was safe outside again.

"In the future, it's best to come into the mountains during the day. Be careful of your safety, even if you are here."

After all, there are so many people at home who worry about you and comfort you, and I am too.

Fang Jinshi solemnly instructed Zong Yu. Seeing his daughter-in-law's serious expression, Zong Yu smiled and agreed.

"Okay, I'll take you down, hold on tight."

He slung Fang Jinshu on his back and began to walk downwards. The path was indeed steep, the wild grass here grew taller than her, so Fang Jinshu didn't try to be brave and obediently stayed on Zong Yu's back.ld his hand and asked,"What's wrong Aren't you taking me somewhere""Zongyu said in a gloomy tone, 'That stinky boy Zongbei only listens to you now and not me.'""You're unhappy just because of this" F...
