ence.Fang Jinshi's unconscious remark turned the child's face even redder.Zong Yu strode forward.Fang Jinxiu felt a warmth in her palm. She lowered her head and saw that her small hand was tightly hel...As soon as Fang Jinxiu finished speaking, the first person to object was not Zong Yu or a villager, but surprisingly, Wang, the village head.

"This won't do!" Mayor Wang looked particularly serious.

Fang Jinshu's abilities, he had seen with his own eyes. Even he felt inadequate in comparison, which is why he repeatedly sought her cooperation and dared to entrust the lives of the villagers to her.

Wang, the village chief, would never agree to it if someone else took over.

Hu Ai-lan was shocked by Fang Jinxiu's words for a moment, greed and ecstasy surged into her mind.

Wang Cunzhang's opposition brought her back to her senses. Hu Ailan eagerly reassured Wang Cunzhang.

"Uncle Wang, I grew up under your care. If Fang Jinshu can do it, then I can too."

Besides, Elder Brother Zongyu is here. There's nothing you should be worried about. I'm just assisting from the side. I swear, I will definitely manage the mountain well and ensure everyone in the village has a full stomach.

Village Chief Wang, don't worry too much. He saw Fang Jinshi remained silent, no matter how Hu Ailan assured him, even if she explained herself to death, he wouldn't believe her.

No one knew better than he how the family's life had slowly started to improve.

It can be said that without Fang Jinshui, there would be no current Zongjia, and Mu's illness would not have improved.

Although Village Head Wang didn't know how she did it, perhaps that was her extraordinary quality. Not to mention Hu Ailan, the whole village, including himself, might not have her capability.

Fang Jinshi was setting a trap for Hu Ailan. Wang, the village chief, urgently opposing it would only ruin her plan.

"Uncle Wang, it's fine. I'm not leaving right away."

"I'm responsible for the villagers, so of course I have to wait until Hu Ailan can handle everything and make sure she's done a good job before I leave."

The village head was eager to speak again.

Even so, he didn't believe Hu Ai-lan could do as well as him, sooner or later she would make a mistake!

"Uncle Wang!" Fang Jinshu again interrupted him.

"If you keep opposing like this, aren't you forcing Ah Yu to go astray and become an irresponsible person"

Village Chief Wang was so eager that he didn't know where to begin. He was just a bunch of irresponsible nonsense! Back then, it was Young Master Zong who had wronged Miss Hu first.

If they truly had a marital relationship, how could she possibly run off with another man to the outskirts of the village

Wang, the village head, simply wouldn't believe it.

Zhao's reaction was rather slow, but she eventually caught on. She didn't understand what had gotten into Fang Jinshi, who surprisingly allowed Hu to enter and even gave her authority to manage things.

Of course, she couldn't guess Fang Jinxiu's thoughts with her mind. She could only desperately try to stop Wang Zhuang from continuing to oppose.

"Old man, just stop meddling. This mountaintop doesn't belong to us. If they want to give it to someone else, let them. Besides, after Ailan comes in, she'll eventually take over managing these things anyway."

"To be honest, Fang finally came to her senses."

"Don't worry, since you're so sensible, when it comes to the divorce, Hu Yaotou definitely won't mistreat you. If you don't want to leave, stay as a concubine or something, Hu Yaotou would agree to that too."

"After all, she's not as jealous and petty as you."

Hu Ai-lan's expression faltered for a moment, her face turning rather grim.

This Zhao, when it's time to speak, all they say is blah blah blah, nothing of substance. But when it's not time to speak, they have a lot to say!

Ke Huai-lan also needed Zhao, the village elder's wife, to help her in many ways. She couldn't directly refute her, and had to maintain an image of generosity. She could only awkwardly smile and agree.

"Yes, if Sister Jinxiu doesn't want to leave, I would be overjoyed to have you stay. We could be like family."

Fang Jinxiu saw that Hu Ailan's smile was distorted and couldn't help but feel pity for her.

"Don't you feel guilty"

"Your laugh is too hideous, stop laughing. Even if it wasn't you, I wouldn't work with her, not even if she were a princess."

I'm so disgusted, acting like a family.

Zongyu acted like a backdrop throughout the whole thing, as if the discussion about his marriage hadn't involved him at all. No one had even bothered to ask him who he wanted to marry.

He simply stayed close to Fang Jinshu, and anyone who paid even the slightest attention would notice that from beginning to end, Zong Yu's eyes held no other woman except for Fang Jinshu.

"Alright, since we've said everything we needed to, everyone should go now."

"As for you," she looked at Hu Ailan.

"When would you like to start working"one was laughing even though they were being scolded, because they were about to see water!Fang Jinshi also stood at the door with her whole family to watch the water release ceremony. Mu shi and Yuli...
