Chapter 575 I Naturally Have to Leave Some Room for Myself

nly didn't regret it, but dared to confront her righteously.Judging by last time, just feeding him Coptis chinensis didn't teach him a lesson.A dog that bites deserves to be killed. It truly hurts to...Hu Ai-lan shook her head vehemently, denying, "Me and Li Gou are not that kind of relationship."

"I, I just came to ask him some questions."

Even if she couldn't marry into a prestigious family, she had to find a man who could support her. She absolutely couldn't let Li Gou, that fool, ruin her reputation.

Unfortunately, no matter how Hu Ai Lan explained herself, the villagers talked over each other, spreading gossip like wildfire. No one listened to her explanation at all.

The village life was simple to begin with, and everyone in the community was very interested in this kind of thing. They gossiped just like housewives back home.

Hu Ai-lan stamped her foot angrily, gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Fang Jinxiu.

Having failed to find Li Gou, Fang Jinshi had no time to argue with Hu Ailan. She had just stepped out of the Li family's house when Changhe ran towards her from afar.

"Sister-in-law, the brothers guarding at the foot of the mountain saw Li Gou running up the mountain from another path."

Fang Jinxiu let out a cold snort, “You're courting death.”

"Should we send people up the mountain to block him"

Fang Jinshu shook her head.

"No, you guys do what you have to do."

"Mount Nobuyasu is not a place where someone like Li Gou can just stay."

Without someone as knowledgeable about the mountain environment and skilled at hunting as Zongyu by his side, an ordinary villager surviving in the mountains would be nothing short of a fantasy.

Let's not talk about the wild animals in the mountains for now. Just with the current weather, once night falls, the temperature in the mountains drops extremely low. Even if Li Gou doesn't freeze to death, he wouldn't be able to hold on for two days. By then, he would definitely take the initiative to run down the mountain.

I'm going to Wangcunchang's house.

Fang Jinshi went to the village head's house alone. She hadn't seen Village Head Wang from the time she left the village until she returned.

Fangjiacun has to discuss the matter of trading water with them with Uncle, the village head.

As soon as Fang Jinshu left, the crowd gathered at Li's doorstep instantly dispersed, leaving only Hu Ailan alone, gritting her teeth in hatred.

"Fang Jinshiu! Let's wait and see."

As soon as Hu Ailan finished speaking, she saw Fang Jinshi who had already walked far away suddenly turn her head back.

"Don't talk about me behind my back, I can hear you!"

Hu Ailan jumped in fright and ran away hastily.

Fang Jinshi let out a sneer. As soon as she reached the doorstep of Wang Zhuang's house, she heard a violent argument coming from inside.

"Wang Qingshan! I've followed you for over twenty years, and you're going to divorce me!"

Fang Jinshui was about to lift the teaching materials when she suddenly froze in place. Just as she was about to retract, she was bumped head-on by Zhao Ma who ran out from inside crying.

"Zhao's wife," she nodded slightly to the village head's daughter-in-law in greeting.

Their relationship wasn't good to begin with, and they had already torn their faces apart. The fact that she could still politely call her "aunt" was already quite polite.

Sadly, her politeness and good manners were not reciprocated.

Zhao's aunt not only bumped her hard, but also glared at her with a look of wanting to eat her alive.

"It's all your fault, you little wretch! Ever since you came to our village, we haven't had a moment of peace!"

"I'm going to be fired, are you happy now!"

Zhao's face was filled with indignation, but her eyes were red and teary, with tears constantly streaming down her cheeks.

Fang Jinshi didn't intend to ridicule her, she just stood there silently without speaking.

When Wang, the village head, heard a noise at the door, he hurried out.

Upon seeing Fang Jinshi, he slightly restrained his expression and managed to force a smile.

"It's Jinxiu back."

When Zhao saw the village head come out, she immediately turned and ran away.

Fang Jinshi frowned, "Uncle Wang, I heard you were going to divorce your wife What's the matter"

Village Head Wang let out a long sigh. He didn't want to talk about his family matters and deliberately changed the subject.

"Did your trip to Fangjia Village go well"

"Come find me, is there something wrong"

Fang Jinxiu saw that Wang Shu didn't want to say more, and she didn't continue to ask.

After all, it's someone else's family affair. She's just an outsider.

"Well, there are two things I'd like to discuss with you."

Village Chief Wang stooped and stepped aside to let her in, “Come on in.”

As for Fangjia Village, Fang Jinshu only spoke about things related to the village. As for those family matters of the Fang family, there was no need to make them common knowledge.

"It's a good thing to cooperate with Fangjia Village. Fangjia Village is a big village, and there are many skilled people in the village. I would be delighted if they could come to our village to work."

"Digging a water channel for Fangjia Village is no problem, the key is who will dig it Is there really enough water in our mountains for two villages to use together"

These things that Wang, the village head, considered, Fang Jinxiu had also considered on his way back.

"Uncle Wang, you can rest assured. If we really dig a canal for them, of course I'll leave some wiggle room so that our village won't be disadvantaged when it comes to water usage."ns and be appointed an official, he must have been at least twenty-seven or eight years old, even if he wasn't thirty.At his age, Pan Zhi'an still doesn't have a wife. It's most likely because of his...
