bly won't be too angry.""Big brother, please take care of Teacher for me."The young man's thoughtful gesture made Fang Jinshu couldn't help but smile.This kid, she's not even capable of getting jealou...Fang Jinshu really didn't expect that Su Yusheng's business caravan had already been in the city two days ago. Then she wasted so much effort finding buyers for medicinal materials and raising money everywhere.

"You're finally here."

The leader of the caravan was Chen, a steward from the Su family.

“You must be Zong’s daughter, right The journey wasn’t very smooth, so we got delayed along the way and made you wait.”

"Our young master instructed me to deliver this to you as soon as possible. I didn't expect to meet you in Luoshui City."

Fang Jinshu's eyes darted back and forth between the fat old man and Chen Guanchang.

"Do you know them"

Mr. Chen addressed the portly old man with great respect, “This is…”

Just as he was about to speak, the stout old man chuckled twice and interrupted him.

"Listen up, who I am doesn't matter. What matters is you take everything you need to take back with you. Go get 'em!"

This was the first time Fang Jinxiu knew what it felt like for a monk with a height of two zhangs to not know what his head was about.

What's he up to How does she feel like this old man knows everything, what is his identity and background!

"Alright, alright. Since I've already gotten your things delivered, get on the road quickly. It gets dangerous out there later."

The portly old man urged Fang Jinshi to depart, and with her reluctance there was nothing he could do.

Next time she comes back, she'll definitely get something out of this old man. She's being so mysterious and teasing!

"Chen Guan, you and your team follow our carriage."

Mr. Chan wore a look of pure delight.

"Luckily, we met Zong Niece and you all here in Luoshui City, otherwise, we really wouldn't know how to get into your village."

Bandits are rampant in Heitu Town and its surroundings. They capture a batch and then more pop up. These bandits have also become smarter, hiding their lairs very well.

The government is currently too busy to handle this matter. Just maintaining the current situation for the people of Luoshui City is a huge undertaking.

Fang Jinshi nodded, instructing everyone to be on guard along the way.

The Su merchant caravan also had guards accompanying them. If they truly encountered bandits, they would still have the strength to fight back.

There aren't many people on the other side.

Chen, the manager, had already learned from his young master that this Madame Zong's husband was skilled in martial arts. With him around, mere bandits were nothing to worry about.

When they came, there were only three people in their squad, but when they left, it had grown into a large and impressive group, attracting attention.

On the road, Fang Jinshi was indeed a little worried. They had several large and small carts, all packed with supplies. Wasn't this just an invitation for bandits to rob them

Zong Yu reassured her not to worry, if they truly encountered bandits, he would definitely protect her well and would never let his wife suffer even a slight bit of harm.

With space in hand, Fang Jinshi wasn't worried about her own comfort. It was just that she couldn't bear to part with these supplies; if only she could safely haul them all back to the mountains.

They can at least safely spend at least half a year without having to come out.

The two little servants Zhao Xingzhou gave were also skilled in martial arts. They were his confidants and had followed him since childhood.

Seeing that the two could fight, Zong Yu directly arranged them in front of the carriage. If they really encountered danger later, he would go out to protect the supplies, and Jinxiu always needed two reliable people to protect her side.

It wasn't until this moment that Zongyu realized how important it was to cultivate his own people, especially his reliable subordinates.

After all, these two servants belonged to Zhao Xingzhou. When faced with danger, they might not prioritize Jinxiu's safety above their own.

Zongyu silently recorded this matter in his heart, and waited until he had time to find the two people back and cultivate them well.

After Zong Yu and his wife left, Old Master Zong at the Nobuyoshi side became more lively.

He only learned that Mr. and Mrs. Zong were not home from Village Head Wang on the third day, and immediately after finding out, he brought Hu Ai Lan up the mountain.

During her time living with the Zong family, Hu Ai Lan knew that her position wasn't secure enough. She was extra obedient in front of Old Master Zong.

Before she gave birth, Wang Yǎn'er was the one who handled all the household chores for her family. She took turns with her sister-in-law from the third house.

Laundry, cooking, cleaning, and housework—Wu Laotai and Liu shi are practically hands-off these days.

After Wang Yanei gave birth, all the housework fell to He Shi in the third room. Now He Shi was also pregnant, so Wu Shi began to ask Da Er's daughter-in-law, Liu Shi, to do the work.

All the able-bodied people in the family left, those who were pregnant stayed. Mrs. Liu had thought she would live to be an old mother-in-law and finally enjoy some peace and quiet.

She still couldn't escape the fate of housework. With so many people in the family, there were clothes to wash, meals to cook, and the house to clean – just these everyday chores could exhaust her.

But after Hu Ai-lan arrived, she unexpectedly took on all of these chores and became a favorite among everyone in the old house.

Even the couple from the Third House, who were usually accustomed to staying out of family affairs and keeping a low profile, also took a liking to Hu Ailan and got along very well with her.

They all support Hu Ailan getting rid of Fang Jinshu, becoming the granddaughter-in-law of the clan.

Standing once again before the gate of Zong's family, Hu Ailan had an uncontainable confidence in her eyes. With Grandpa Zong taking charge personally, she didn't believe the Mu family dared to defy Grandpa Zong's wishes.le, they regard Fenghun Pills as treasures and flock to them.”"Zhao brother, what do you mean by that"This person, Zhao Xingzhou, wouldn't have said something like this for no reason.Although Wang Das...
