Chapter 476 A Bloodless Victory

mediately saw her arm, which was wrapped up like a baseball bat, and nervously grabbed her wrist and asked."What's going on""Are you hurt"How are you hurtFang Jinxiu annoyed closed her eyes, Ah, **, f..."Look, it's Village Head Wang back!" Someone shouted, the voice echoing through the air.

Zhao Shi's whole body stiffened. She dared to shout and scream in front of Fang Jinxiu and Zong Yu because she relied on her status as the village head's daughter-in-law.

When the village head returned, Zhao instantly lost her air of authority.

Hu Ai-lan had been hiding behind Zhao, she didn't care what would happen to Zhao at all, she just wanted to achieve her own goals as soon as possible.

Those who had been hiding at home watching the excitement finally came out, almost all of them were the elderly, weak, women and children.

Men either work on the mountains or underground.

Hu Ailan, seeing this, knew her chance had arrived.

"Village Head Uncle, please don't be angry. Aunt Zhao only started arguing with Sister Jinxiu because of me. I know it's all my fault."

"Don't blame her, blame me instead. I shouldn't have told Zhao's aunt about what happened between me and Zongyu before."

She argued with them because she was standing up for me.

Wang Cunzhang glared fiercely at Hu Ailan. He had lived most of his life and had never seen anyone like this.

This little trick of hers would only fool her simple, naive wife!

Instead of following her lead and focusing on the fact that Wang Zuo had a history with Zong Yu, the village chief calmly warned her.

"Little Hu, I only took pity on you and let you stay in the village because your whole family is gone."

If we were to go by household registration, you wouldn't be from our village anymore!

"Or do you want me to expose all the favors I've done for you"

Hu Ai-lan eloping with a man and abandoning her reputation was almost unknown in the village. Wang, the head of the village, was one of the few who knew the true story.

Hu Ai-lan's eyes flickered, and finally she understood the fear. She closed her mouth and didn't speak again.

The village head turned and looked at the couple, Fang Jinxiu and her husband.

"I've heard the rumors going around the village, too."

This would truly be putting Fang Jinshu in a difficult position. This wasn't the first time Zhao had picked a fight with her. Previously, she had let it slide because of Wang Zhuang and his son's faces.

"Uncle Wang, I've never been a good-tempered person."

Before, Tiezhu came to assure me that this matter was definitely not done by Zhao's aunt.

As soon as Fang Jinxiu finished speaking, Zong Yu immediately chimed in, "Zhao just admitted it herself. The rumors were spread by her."

At this time, the couple worked together seamlessly. Fang Jinshu turned and began to pressure Wang, the village head.

"Uncle Wang, the mountaintop just got cleared, do you know how much we have to worry about every day, me and Ah Yu"

"So many people in the village signed contracts with me. If I don't farm this mountain properly, what will the villagers do when it's time to distribute grain and wages"

"You're right," said Village Chief Wang, nodding repeatedly. "This is our family's fault."

"It's my fault for not taking care of my family."

"Rest assured, Jinxiu. Uncle Wang will definitely give you an explanation for this."

"Zhao gave a furious bellow, "What explanation do we get Zong Yu took advantage of Hu's innocence, defiled her purity and still refuses to admit it!"

"I'm telling the truth, it's not a rumor!"

"Since everyone is here today, why don't we just lay everything out on the table You all owe Hu a proper explanation!"

At the time, there was no evidence to support either side. Zong Yu couldn't prove he hadn't done anything, and Hu Ai Lan couldn't provide proof that her words were true.

Therefore, she dared to keep dragging this matter out, even though they had warned her repeatedly. For the sake of reputation, Hu Ai-lan went all out.

Sometimes Fong Kim-sau can't understand, for a man whose heart isn't on her, she went to such lengths, is it really worth it

Or perhaps Hu Ai-lan's true motive wasn't about reputation at all Maybe she was after the money.

As she thought about this, Fang Jinshi suddenly found it amusing. Clearing the mountaintop was just the first step; there were still many places where money would be needed afterward. Where could she possibly find the money now

The manor was just starting to be built, and she was still hoping to clear a portion of the mountaintop first to plant some food. She planned to trade this food for other supplies to ease the pressure.

Suddenly, Fang Jinshi came up with an excellent plan. It could resolve Hu Ailan's relentless pursuit of their family without bloodshed.

It can also provide itself with free labor and help share most of the pressure.

The more she thought about it, the funnier it seemed to her. Compared to a bloody scene or being driven out of the village, it would be better if she realized it was too difficult and withdrew on her own.

"What Zhao Shn said is right, this matter indeed needs to be laid out, to give each other an explanation."

Fang Jinshi suddenly changed her words, causing everyone to be taken aback, including Zong Yu. Jinshu stumbled, letting out a cry as her body tilted and she plunged into the water.Zong Yu reacted extremely quickly, almost instantly jumping down. One arm embraced Fang Jinxiu's slender waist wit...
