Chapter 574 If you have no legs, why are you in Li Goufang&a

ad died on his way to take the imperial examination.Her dowry, the result of three years of hard work and frugality, all gone to waste!Liu's resentment towards the second branch of the family and Mu Y...As for the food, lodging, and other necessities of these twenty or so people, Li Muhui said he could be fully responsible. If anyone found the accommodations too cramped, he would have two more wooden houses built.

Anyway, there are dead trees everywhere in the wild mountains, and there is plenty of timber.

After leaving Mr. Li, Fang Jinshi was prepared to go back and deal with Li Gou's matter. Having a few nails under one's nose would make anyone uncomfortable.

It's better to pull it out clean sooner rather than later.

But somehow, this news took flight. Who knows how it spread to the village and was overheard by Hu Ailan.

Ever since she found out that the Zong family was not only a shell but also in deep debt, she completely gave up on the idea of marrying into it.

Fāng Jǐnxiù wanted to dig a pit of fire for her to jump into, and then climb out on top of her, not even the door.

But Hu Ai-lan didn't leave the village either. Ye Village now had food and water, and the village head's wife, Zhao, was still so willing to take care of her. She would only leave if she went crazy.

Going outside is also a dead end.

But staying at the Zong family, He's husband and wife would have her work every day, and she'd also have to serve Wu Lao Tai, who wasn't quite right in the head.

Hu Ailan's life wasn't particularly good. Even if she hadn't married Zong Yu and lived a wealthy life, her feud with Fang Jinxiu had never ended.

She was delighted by anything that could cause Fang Jinshu to be unhappy.

The seeds in this mountain were stolen, and Li Gou was implicated.

Hu Ai-lan only then remembered the deal she had made with Li Gou before, to find an opportunity to kill Fang Jinxiu.

It seems like Li Gou's people have indeed infiltrated the mountain. But what is this scheme of stealing seeds

No matter what, Hu Ai-lan was the first to inform Li Gou about it. Upon learning of the exposure, Li Gou hurried to flee.

Hu Ai-lan, seeing his flustered and desperate appearance, grabbed him and asked.

"You kept saying you had a way to deal with that bitch Fang Jinxiu, but all your people in the mountains did was steal some seeds from her"

"What use is it stealing seeds! Fang Jinshi didn't even break a sweat, not even a scratch!"

Li Gou, don't be so anxious.

"You know what, when Fang Jinshi wasn't home those few days, I wanted to give her a lesson. What could I do since she wasn't around"

"The seeds she planted in the ground are now worth a fortune outside. All I've learned is that I can only fall to ruin."

Hu Ai-lan glanced at Li Gou with disdain.

“I didn't promise you a large sum of money and food after the job is done, and a position of authority, did I”

"What a blind fool! You've scared the snake and alerted Fang Jinshu now. It will be much harder for you to make a move!"

Li Gou felt time was running out. Fang Jinxiu was a vindictive person, and since she knew he had hired people to do the things on the mountain, she would definitely come immediately to settle the score with him.

No, he has to find a new place to hide immediately and lay low.

"Hey, it's already this late, why are you still trying to teach her a lesson She's exposed all my people. Don't get in my way, let me escape! If I get caught, you won't be able to run either."

"I'll definitely turn you in and say that you ordered me to do this!"

When Hu Ailan heard this, she was so scared that her hand immediately loosened, and Li Gou took the opportunity to flee quickly.

Fan Jinshu deliberately took her time arriving with her entourage, and when the Li family saw her, none of them dared to approach. Only Li Gou's father cautiously stepped forward.

"Old Li, I'm looking for your son, Li Gou."

"Misfortune never falls upon a family alone. I know you guys don't even know what Li Gou did, and I won't bother you, on the condition that you hand him over."

Old Li plopped to his knees with a thump, "Dogzi, we really don't know where he went."

Fang Jinshu snorted coldly. She hadn't expected to get anything useful from the Li family anyway.

In Li Gou's house, Hu Ailan hadn't had time to leave when she heard Fang Jinshu enter through the front door.

She gritted her teeth and was about to climb out the window when she was caught by Fang Jinshi who had come in looking for Li Gou.

Fang Jinshi was still followed by many people from the village.

Everyone in the room was stunned, staring at Hu Ailan who had suddenly appeared in Li Gou's room, their jaws practically hitting the floor.

"How could Hu Ai-lan be in Li Gou's house"

"It's not obvious yet, they must have something going on, otherwise, why would a good girl from a respectable family be in a man's room"

"My goodness, I never would have guessed. This Hu Ailan is so fickle. Before this, she wasn't clamoring to marry Zong Yu and saying how he tarnished her innocence, claiming she wouldn't marry anyone else"

"So, you just ended up with Li Gou all of a sudden What a disgrace!"

Hu Ai-lan listened to these rumors from the villagers, her face flushed with anger.

"Who has an affair with Li Gou!"

"As for someone like Li Gou, he's not even worthy!"

Fang Jinshi suddenly splashed a basin of cold water on her, "No leg, then why are you in Li Gou's room"

"Could it be that they came to give him a heads-up", her breathing becoming hot and rapid. She could only lean against Zongyu's arms, clutching his clothes tightly at his chest to prevent herself from falling.This was the first time Zong Yu had ever k...
