Chapter 461: Xiao Hua Scares Everyone
p draw water, wash clothes and water the vegetable patch. Her small herb garden didn't need watering though, as it was irrigated by a spring, making the herbs grow with a vitality that surpassed even...I've never heard of a tiger helping catch criminals.
"If something like this happens at home again, you must tell me."
"The people in the village, if they steal once, will have a second time. If we don't take action to deter them, we'll get them used to being criminals, and they'll steal more and more."
"Therefore, it must be stopped."
Upon hearing this, Yu Lian realized how wrong she had been. Her sister-in-law was right; a thief never feels satisfied. Once they find out you won't pursue them after the first incident, they'll come back for more.
"You guys keep doing your regular jobs, I'll handle catching the criminals."
Mu and Yu Lian nodded, then glanced at Xiaohua again. They were still too afraid to approach.
Little Flower is also new here. She doesn't stick to anyone else, only Fang Jinxiu.
Originally, Fang Jinxiu came down the mountain to discuss the blueprints of the mountain villa with Li Muhai. As soon as she put down her basket and stepped out the door, she saw Xiaohua following behind her.
"Go back."
Stay home and guard it.
Little Flower ignored her, standing by her side. When she walked forward, Little Flower walked forward too. When she stopped, Little Flower stopped as well.
Fang Jinxiu was a bit helpless. Bringing a tiger with her to negotiate, she wouldn't scare everyone else away.
But Xiaohua refused to be left alone at home. Zongyu, seeing this, opened his mouth and said something, as if he had thought of something.
"Let him come along. He might be useful when I'm not around."
Zong Yu's idea was that instead of letting Zhao Xingzhou's two servants follow his wife around all day, it would be better to replace them with this large beast.
It should look more pleasing to the eye.
Fang Jinshu still thought she had misheard. Zong Yu actually let Xiaohua follow her
Facing his daughter-in-law's questioning gaze, Zongyu awkwardly opened his mouth to explain.
"It's new to our home, it doesn't know anyone or anything here. It's scared, you have to let it adjust."
Although Zongyu made sense, Fang Jinshu was even more surprised.
It seems like just now on the mountain, he wanted to kill Xiaohua and strongly opposed keeping Xiaohua. The person who disagreed with leaving Xiaohua wasn't him.
"Well, well, you make a point."
It's mainly that this sticky tiger is just impossible to get rid of. Fang Jinshu couldn't do anything about it, so she could only let it follow her for now.
She came to find Li Muhai. As soon as she reached the door of their residence, she heard someone shouting from afar.
"Yes, yes! There's a tiger!"
"My God, the tiger has come down the mountain! Hurry up, hurry up, grab your weapons!"
In the blink of an eye, Li Muhai and his engineering team all rushed out with their tools.
Xiaohua was frightened by the tense atmosphere in front of her, her body tensed up, and she instantly sprang out her claws, letting out a threatening low growl.
Hearing the tiger's roar, people on Li Muhai's side became even more nervous.
Fāng Jǐnxiù hurriedly squatted down to comfort Xiaohua, "Alright, alright, don't be nervous, they won't hurt you."
Li Muhai's eyes were behind him, and Li Yuanchun immediately saw Fang Jinshu beside the tiger. At first, he thought he was seeing things.
"Father, isn't the person standing beside that tiger Mistress Zong It must be Mistress Zong, right"
Li Yuanchun's reminder caused everyone to come back to their senses. They took a closer look and realized it was indeed Zong's daughter.
Li Muhai was stunned.
"It's Zong Miss, but...but how is she hugging a tiger"
They all thought they were seeing things, rubbing their eyes frantically before looking again. Fang Jinshu had already started waving at them.
"Uncle Li, it's me."
"Put down your weapons."
Fang Jinshu yelled for half a day before persuading Li Muhai and the others to put down their weapons. A group of men are much bolder than women.
After her explanation, the men all looked excited, eager to touch the tiger's behind.
There's a saying that goes, you can't touch a tiger's butt. They want to try it today and see if it's really true.
"Lady Zong, what kind of tiger is this"
Fang Jinshi chuckled and patted Xiaohua's head, who was squatting beside her feet. "Oh, Xiaohua, it's our guardian now."
"After getting to know everyone well, Xiaohua officially took on the task of patrolling our home and protecting everyone's safety."
Hearing this, everyone thought Fang Jinshu was joking.
"It You... you let a tiger patrol"
Fang Jinshu nodded, and casually fed Xiaohua a piece of snake jerky, letting it gnaw on it.
"Yeah, what's wrong Are you afraid of it"
Li Muhai always felt a bit melancholy. Not to mention that this beast was a tiger capable of harming people, could an animal understand human speech
Uncle Li, I know what you're worried about. Xiaohua will be well-trained. As long as you don't go out of your way to provoke it, I guarantee Xiaohua won't hurt anyone.
Li Muhai nodded half-believingly.
"By the way, Uncle Li, I came to discuss how to draw up plans for the villa."
As soon as it came to business, Li Muhai immediately shifted his gaze from Xiaohua.
"Alright, let's talk inside. Zong girl, what kind of mountain villa do you want to build"skills were beyond the reach of ordinary women like Hu Ai-lan.The current situation appears tense, but in reality, everything is under the control of his wife.Zong Bai had always been intelligent, but...
