ncle and Grandma, creating conflict between us so that we'll never have a good life again"If you hadn't provoked my grandma, she wouldn't have argued with mother, and mother wouldn't have fainted from...He kicked the dog hard and said, "If you don't apologize, get out of here and never come back! When the canal is dug, your house won't be allowed to use the water!"

Iron Pillar's kick was unusually ferocious, intimidating many people.

Those who were just agreeing with the dog are now timidly hiding behind, not even daring to look at him.

They wouldn't dare to fool around with water. Without water to drink, people would die.

"Would you all be honest now"

Don't forget what you all signed before going up the mountain. Anyone who disobeys Brother Zongyu up here will face the consequences.

Whether he walks fast or slow, there is his reason. You just follow him.

"Whoever makes trouble out of nowhere, don't blame me for being impolite!"

The dog, terrified, scrambled forward under Tiezhu's intimidating stare and apologized to Fang Jinxiu before quickly scurrying back into the crowd, never daring to show its face again.

After stunning the scene, Tiezhu turned back to continue apologizing to Zongyu.

"Zong Yu Ge, let's just drop it this time. I guarantee they won't dare to make a fuss again."

Fang Jinshu picked her eyebrows. This Wang village head was truly extraordinary.

Before yesterday, Tiezhu's attitude towards them wasn't any better than those young men in the village. After just one night, he suddenly became so respectful and attentive.

Everyone says you don't hit someone who is smiling. Since the person admitted their mistake and was so sincere, Fang Jinshu could only wave her hand and say it was alright before turning away to continue harvesting her herbs.

Zong Yu Chao Tie Zhu nodded, then followed his wife, continuing to be her protector.

Seeing that the two were no longer talking about leaving, Tiezhu felt a wave of relief.

Fang Jinxiu found a good-looking Tianma on the hillside and hurriedly grabbed her small shovel and went over.

Zhong Yu followed behind, steadying her body.

Fang Jinshi was multitasking, digging for herbs while curiously asking, "Tie Zhu seems like a different person today. Why is he being so polite to you"

He wasn't like that yesterday.

Zong Yu shook his head. "I don't know either."

He thought for a moment, and added, "It must be Uncle Wang who told him something."

Fan Jinshi cleaned the mud off the Tianma root and put it into a box.

"This Tiezhu kid, the way he got angry just now really had a bit of an official air about him."

"This village is fortunate to have these father and son."

Upon hearing this, Zong Yu's brows furrowed. He straightened his already upright spine even more, his mouth forming a straight line. His expression was much more serious than before.

His appearance was never particularly imposing, and now with a stern expression and deliberate effort to appear more authoritative...

It looks even more intimidating.

If he stood in the middle of the road like that, even the Jade Emperor himself would think he was a highway robber, and no one would consider him a good person.

After Fang Jinshui finished harvesting the cordyceps, she turned around to see Zong Yu's face, which was three points fiercer than usual. Even though she had never found him frightening, she was startled by his appearance.

"You, you're really angry with those people"

"Tie Zhu is still young after all, he did a good job handling things."

After all, the village had been drought-stricken for so long. It's understandable that they were anxious when they finally saw a water source.

"There's not much good medicinal herbs on this hillside anyway, let's hurry and get going. I'll look around near the water source for what I need."

She finished speaking and carefully observed Zong Yu's expression, but she found no improvement. Instead, his brow furrowed even deeper.

Is Zongyu usually this hot-tempered I didn't notice before.

She grabbed Zong Yu's large hand and was about to try to act cute to coax him. When her aunt and uncle came looking for trouble in the morning, she intentionally leaned softly against his chest, unintentionally discovering that Zong Yu liked this kind of behavior.

Before she could even react, Zong Yu suddenly turned and walked away.

Fang Jinshi stood on the spot, stunned and awkwardly retracted her hand.ehind him with a small basket on her back.The mountain path was not easy to climb, but everyone’s spirits were much better than yesterday. Perhaps knowing there was water in the mountains gave them ho...
