Chapter 450: Really Bold

se and asked Tiezhu to help carry Zongbei back to his own courtyard.After taking care of all that, she finally turned to face the Mu family.Before Zong Bai woke up and told everyone what happened, she...At this point, Old Madam Wu had stopped crying. Although she was heartbroken over her husband's death and terrified about her eldest son being taken away, she managed to compose herself.

It was precisely because one after another, the men in her family had run into trouble that now the only person she could rely on at home was her youngest son.

Lady Wu's calmness now wasn't because she had accepted and forgiven Mu Shi and Fang Jinxiu. She was more afraid that no one would take care of her in the future.

If Lao San runs out of money, he'll only support his wife and children. As for this useless old bone, she's very likely to be kicked out of the house.

Since the old man treated Little Tiger and his wife like this after he broke his hand, then maybe that's how the third son will treat her.

So Old Madam Wu didn't dare to speak at all, she just listened quietly as they discussed the terms.

He's words startled Hu Ai Lan.

Could it be that the couple of Zong Lao San wants to bow their heads to Fang Jinxiu What would she use to fight Fang Jinxiu then

"Aunt Three!" she hurriedly interrupted He.

"You've thought it through. Grandfather and Uncle were bloody lessons, can we really believe what she says"

When Hu Ai-lan panicked, she even stopped pretending to be gentle. She called out "Jinxiu Sister" repeatedly.

Fang Jinshu suddenly found it amusing, shaking her hand and standing aside.

"I can give Auntie Three some time to think about it."

"Right now, I'm about to recruit villagers to go up the mountain to clear land. Those who work for me will not only receive food and wages but can also have a meal here every day."

"If you continue to oppose me, you won't even be able to have this."

When He heard this, she nodded eagerly. She didn't care about the past grievances between their family branches. Before this, she had already disapproved of her father and elder brother going against the second branch.

What benefit could it possibly bring to their family by offending Fang Jinshi

Before, the three-room couple never had a say in the affairs of the Zong family. Now that it was their turn to be in charge, Mrs. He didn't want to fight with anyone anymore. She was finally pregnant with her own child and just wanted to live a peaceful life, raising her child healthy and strong.

Zong Lao San himself didn't have much of an opinion. After He spoke, he didn't say another word.

"Jinxiu, I don't need so much time to consider. Now the clan is under the control of you, me, and your third uncle. We accept your kindness."

"I can probably guess what conditions you're going to bring up. Rest assured, the people in the old house will never bother you again."

This trouble was actually only caused by Old Madam Wu.

They just need to take good care of Old Madam Wu, and they'll have the opportunity for such a good job. In this year of hardship, where else would there be something so good

Those outside don't even talk about working and earning money or food; they don't even know how to survive. Compared to those outside, the people in the village are able to live their current lives thanks to Fang Jinshu's efforts.

"Auntie San is a smart woman." Fang Jinxiu smiled, she was right about her.

Then she turned her head to look at Hu Ailan, and upon meeting Fang Jinshu's gaze, Hu Ailan trembled.

"Auntie Three, your money wasn't blown in by the wind. It's hard enough to support your own family. How can you continue to keep a stranger at home eating for free"

Both Mr. and Mrs. Zong Lao looked at Hu Ailan, scaring her so much that she hurriedly hid behind Old Madam Wu. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes, and she grabbed hold of Old Madam Wu's sleeve and burst into tears.

"Grandma, Eileen has nowhere else to go. Eileen is willing to serve you for her entire life, taking care of you until the end."

Old Mrs. Wu never had a daughter and thought that with three sons, she would be comfortable in her old age. However, each son was more unreliable than the last, forgetting their mother after marrying wives.

The only son who was loved and obedient to them, also ended up in prison.

Looking at Hu Ailan's tear-streaked face, Old Wu’s eyes flickered.

"Jinxiu said, our family can't afford to keep outsiders." Mrs. He was straightforward, even though Hu Ai-lan had helped their third house a lot during her time at the clan, she still resolutely stood on Fang Jinxiu's side.

This girl has been eyeing up my reputation all day, which woman could bear to have such an existence around

Although He was pitiful towards Hu Ailan, she had no intention of helping her.

"Don't! Third Aunt, please don't drive me away." Hu Ailan was completely panicked. If she left the family, where could she go

Life on the streets was too terrible, she would die.

No, she wanted to live.

In a moment of desperation, Hu Ailan gritted her teeth and abruptly turned around, running to Fang Jinshi's presence and prostrating herself with a thud.

He actually started begging her. were all high-ranking noblewomen in Kyoto, with their families holding prominent positions. Yuan Xiangli, relying on her father's position as prime minister, had offended many people.Not only did no...
