and painful.Hearing these words, I felt a chill run down my spine from head to toe. My heart was filled with rage. Just now, all those emotions vanished instantly with Fang Jinshu's single sentence."...Zhao was a woman and also related to Tie Zhu and Wang, the village head. Even without considering her gender, one should treat her with respect because of her relationship to Wang, the village head.

The rumors on the mountain even reached Tiezhu. He immediately went home and asked his mother what was going on, but Zhao shi said she didn't know.

Iron Pillar had no way to deal with this, and his father even quarreled fiercely with his mother because of it.

But this time, no matter what, she wouldn't budge. She kept saying that it had nothing to do with her and that it was just the villagers gossiping.

Over the past few days, Zong Yu's aura has been unusually low. Even Zong Bai dare not approach him. Anyone with eyes can see that he is in a bad mood.

Tiezhu was also afraid, and wanted to wait for two more days to find a time when he was in a good mood to talk about it.

When he saw Zongyu walking down the mountain with a dark face, Tiezhu chased after him without even finishing his meal.

Then he discovered that Zong Yu Big Brother had been heading towards their house the whole time, his heart skipped a beat.

Chang He, not trusting Tie Zhu, followed him out. Seeing that he was running downhill, he hurriedly pulled him back.

"Are you crazy Even if we're in charge, we still have to follow the rules. Lunch break is about to end. If you leave now, who will be in charge of the people under us"

"When you're not here, they might slack off."

"If your sister-in-law knew you were shirking your duties, what if she suspected that you weren't working hard Come back."

Iron Column was anxious. He feared that Brother Zongyu going to his house would cause trouble, but he couldn't directly tell others that it was his mother who had been spreading rumors everywhere.

"Chang He, please let go of me. I really need to go home and take a look. I'll be back soon."

"Brother Zongyu went to my house."

Chang He paused, he had heard some of the rumors from the mountain. Perhaps as an outsider, he could see things more clearly. Rumors don't appear out of thin air.

And this rumor, why didn't it spread earlier or later, but just when Jinxiu's sister-in-law was recruiting people to go up the mountain to farm

Regardless of what else, he only knew that he couldn't delay the progress of the land reclamation. If Tiezhu left, his team's work efficiency would inevitably slow down.

Since Jinshu's sister trusted them so much to be in charge of such an important task, Chang He didn't want to disappoint her.

"Brother Zongyu isn't a rash person, even if he was looking at Village Head Wang's face, he wouldn't do anything out of line."

"If it's really your mother's rumors, you won't be of any help even if you go back. Just let Big Brother Zongyu handle it himself."

In the end, Tiezhu was still pulled back by Chang He.

The village head, Wang, is also very busy now. He's almost never home during the day, either working in the fields or helping solve problems for other villagers.

Only Zhao and Hu Ailan were left in the Wang family.

These days, Hu Ailan would run to the village head's house whenever she was free, trying to curry favor with Zhao in front of her. Last month, Zhao had been thinking about finding a wife for her son Tiezhu.

Now the thought had been completely abandoned by her, her whole mind was focused on making plans for Hu Ailan, all because she pitied her.

"Lan Yaotou, don't worry, now everyone in the village knows about you and Zong Yu. I can't believe that Fang Jinshi would remain indifferent after hearing all this."

Hu Ai-lan gently took Zhao's arm, "Aunt Zhao, I'm so lucky to have you. My mother was right to introduce us as sisters."

Zhao patted her on the back, with a mysterious expression.

"There's one more thing, I suspect Fang Jinshui and Zong Yu never consummated their marriage."

Hearing this news, Hu Ai-lan was taken aback. Although she didn't want to admit it, Zong Yu treated Fang Jinxiu with great care and affection, his heart and eyes filled with her.

She doesn't seem to dislike Zongyu gege either. How come the two of them haven't consummated their marriage yet

After a brief moment of surprise, Hu Ailan was overjoyed. Not having her wedding night was a blessing from heaven.

As for the reason why she hadn't consummated the marriage, it wasn't important to her.

"Auntie Zhao, how did you know about this"

At this moment, Zongyu happened to arrive at the Zhao family's gate. Seeing the Zhao family's gate tightly closed, he walked forward and directly knocked heavily on the door.

>

Hearing Zhao's voice coming from inside, Zongyu's expression grew even colder.

"Reputation."

Hu Ai-lan was startled and instinctively wanted to find a place to hide.

Oh no, could it be that Zong Yu has come to find her and give her a scolding How did he know she was here so quickly and came looking for her

She just wanted to hide when Zhao shi pulled her back, "Silly girl, this is a good opportunity to find out about Zong Yu's responsibility, why are you hiding"

"Don't worry, Zhao's wife will definitely make things right for you later. I am the village head's wife; he wouldn't dare to do anything to me!"ou in a hurry"Fang Jinshi smiled and said, "Didn't you just hear the old woman say that Zhao's family is the largest medicinal material merchant in the city Perhaps our medicinal materials already hav...
