She smiled confidently, "Alright, then you just wait and see."

"My life, is it really so worth having."

If it weren't for the sake of the child, she wouldn't bother with this whole bunch of crazy people.

Wang Yan'er cast her a tearful look of gratitude.

Zong Hu stopped his parents at the foot of the mountain, refusing to let them go up and cause trouble.

Zongping Kang and the Liu family, using their distrust of their grandson as an excuse, still wanted to go up and see how Fang Jinxiu was treating Xiao Xiaohu.

Yesterday afternoon in the mountains, Zongping Kang personally saw Fang Jinshi pick a white lingzhi mushroom from a tree.

He didn't know what this white lingzhi was used for, whether it was valuable or not.

But seeing the girl's revealing smile, he thought to himself that this must be a good thing.

It's a pity I didn't find out how much it was worth from Zong Yulian yesterday, that girl is pretty tight-lipped. To be able to resist showing off such a treasure after finding it.

He followed after, just hoping to get a glimpse of what the white lingzhi looked like. Maybe he'd go into the mountains himself someday and look for some.

Why can such a good treasure only be picked up by them, I'm sure I could pick it up myself too.

"Father, you all just stay out of this."

Zong Ping saw that his son wouldn't budge, infuriating him to the point where he pointed at him and cursed.

"You heartless wretch! Your mother and I, along with your grandmother, raised you from childhood, only to be repaid with this!"

"After marrying a wife, he forgets his parents, what a heartless thing." He slapped Zong Hu fiercely across the face.

As a son, Zong Hu could only take the beatings and insults without fighting back. He just had to avoid getting caught between them.

Seeing the situation, the elder patriarch could only ask his eldest son and daughter-in-law to go back first.

"So, what use are you going to be up on the mountain"

The children on the left and right are hopeless. If they die at the hands of Zong Yu's wife, I will personally help Xiao Xiao Hu seek justice and make her pay for it.

Upon hearing this, the couple immediately stopped arguing. Mr. Zong still held a lot of authority in his own home.

When the elder spoke, they all waited to see if Fang Jinshiu would meet a bad end.

The little tiger cub's face was flushed red, so red that in the village, a child in this state would have likely died long ago. Even seeing a doctor wouldn't necessarily save them.

Although the old man Zong had seen a lot and felt sorry for the child, as long as his grandson, Zong Hu, was well, he knew the child would eventually have more.

"Let's go home first."

He looked at Zong Hu, “No matter what the outcome is, remember to come back and tell us.”

Zong Hu looked at his grandfather and nodded. After they left, Zong Hu felt a little guilty in his heart.

Hurry up and rush to the mountain.

Fan Jinshi brought the little tiger back and placed the child on the bed she shared with Zongyu.

"When I'm treating a child, I can't have anyone else in the room. It would distract me."

"You're all waiting outside."

Wang Yaner was a little worried, but she still nodded. "Okay, okay, we won't go in."

"Sister, please, you have to bring Little Tiger back."

Fang Jinshi nodded at her and closed the door, shutting the window tight as well.

Seeing this, Zong Yu stood guard at the door. Even though his daughter-in-law didn't give an order, he strictly followed her instructions and prevented Wang Yaner from approaching.

Just like door gods.

Not long after, Zong Hu also arrived. When his eyes met Zong Yu's, he felt quite awkward inside, but still nodded in greeting.

Zongyu wasn't so petty. His cousin was an even more honest person than him.

When I was young, I wanted to bully him, but unfortunately, I wasn't as tall or strong as him.

After several encounters, Zong Hu learned his lesson and stopped provoking his vicious cousin, Zong Yu. He even dared not to provoke his two younger siblings.

Once, he accidentally made Zong Yu Lian cry and was beaten by Zong Yu until his whole body was bruised.

After returning, he was punished by his second uncle, scolded and punished in turn by his grandparents and parents. In the end, the injuries on his body were far more serious than his own.

At that time, they were both under ten years old. He cried out in pain when he received a few bruises, but this cousin of his, with a broken hand, didn't even make a sound to the doctor.

This evening, I also went out and cut a large basket of pig fodder. I haven't slacked off on any of the work that needs to be done.ter was afraid of me, she's just not used to a new environment."Yulian didn't feel that way."I think she's afraid of you. Look, when mother speaks to her, she doesn't even try to get away."As soon as...
