Chapter 614 Now it seems like the light has disappeared

ng his eyes or eating anything.Finally back, he didn't even say to go see people. The moment he opened his mouth, he pressured him to get to work. Village Chief Wang began to reflect, feeling that he...Fang Jinshu went home for less than two days and left again.

Zongbei stood at the door with his mother, seeing off his sister-in-law and younger sister. This time, Zhao Yī and Zhao r accompanied them. After returning home, Tiezhù ran back again, insisting on going to the city with the two of them directly.

He didn't trust Zhao Yi and Zhao Er, pounding his chest and swearing profusely.

"My sister-in-law and Jade Lotus are under my protection, as for outsiders protecting me, I wouldn't trust them."

Village Chief Wang didn't stop his son either. He couldn't ask for anything better than having his son work alongside Fang Jinxiu.

As for whether I'll be back for Chinese New Year, it doesn't matter. One day won't make a difference.

Big things are not about being picky, anyway. When Tiezhu left, Wang Village Chief was quite happy.

When several figures disappeared at the end of the path, Mu suddenly asked about Zongbai.

"Your older brother, what the heck is he up to"

Zong Bai was taken aback, and a flicker of guilt flashed in his eyes. Fortunately, he concealed it quickly, so the Mu clan didn't notice.

"Mother, your sister-in-law already told you, big brother went to the city to handle business."

Mu sighed helplessly, looking at her son, "Mother is old, but I'm not senile yet."

"If your elder brother really went to the county town, would your sister-in-law still need to make this trip for the grocery store"

Zong Bai's eyes widened, it was over, this lie seemed impossible to maintain.

"Mother, this, this."

"You should ask them when your brother and sister-in-law get back. I really can't say."

If he were to tell his mother immediately that his elder brother wasn't coming back and what he was doing, she would probably faint right away.

Mu pretended to be angry and glared fiercely at her youngest son.

"You little rascal, have you gotten too big for your britches What's going on that you even keep it from your own mother"

"Come on, are you telling me your older brother isn't doing something really dangerous"

Mu suddenly thought of something, her face changed, "Could it be that Ayu is missing on the mountain"

Zong Bai saw his mother start to guess wildly, so he hurriedly helped her back.

"No, no, Big Brother didn't go missing. If he did, Sister-in-Law wouldn't be so calm about opening a food stall."

"I've turned the whole wild mountain upside down."

Mu thought about it and agreed. Now, the eldest son and his daughter-in-law have a loving relationship. If Yu truly had something happen to him, Jinxiu would definitely not be so calm doing other things.

"Mother, why did you suddenly ask about elder brother out of the blue"

Mu shi said angrily, "My eyes aren't blind. Your sister-in-law has been back home these past two days, looking quite normal on the surface, but in reality, her heart wasn't in it."

"There's no need to rush the vegetable stall business; she seems more like she desperately wants to find herself something else to do."

Zong Bai's eyes widened, and he silently closed his mouth, no longer daring to speak.

Women are terrifying, damn it! Their insight is too formidable. Just by observing my sister-in-law's state at home for the past two days, she could deduce that my older brother had something else going on.

He couldn't say any more, lest he slip up and let his mother guess something.

"Mother, Mr. Qin gave me quite a lot of homework today. I'll go back to my room first. I won't be coming out for dinner. Please just have JinYu bring it to my room."

After finishing his speech, Zong Bai ran away faster than a monkey.

Mu shi shook her head irritably. Zong Bo's evasive manner only made her worry more about A Yu.

On the way down the mountain, Tiezhu kept talking nonstop, constantly expressing his amazement.

"Sister-in-law, you're amazing! When was this road built at the back of the manor"

"Doesn't everyone in the village know"

Fāng Jǐnxu sighed, "Keep it confidential, you know"

Iron Pillar nodded repeatedly.

When building the mountain villa, Fang Jinshi considered that it would be inconvenient to go home up the mountain in the future. There happened to be a skilled roadbuilder among the artisans in Fangjia Village. She designed a secret downhill passage.

It's safe and easy to walk, even a carriage can climb up.

This way, it will be much more convenient for their family to travel in the future.

As for the road connecting the village to the outside world, she hadn't thought about helping to build one.

But now is definitely not the time, so I'll put it off and wait until after the drought passes before talking to Village Head Wang.

"This path down the mountain used to be frightening, but now it's so much better."

Fang Jinshu suddenly stopped her steps and turned her head to look in the other direction on the mountain.

Yulian's gaze followed hers, and she saw that her sister-in-law was looking in the direction of the dense forest they had entered a few days ago. She hurriedly tugged on Fang Jinshiu's hand.

He whispered soothingly in her ear, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. We all know how capable your brother is, he'll definitely return safely."

Fang Jinxiu's lost eyes drooped, she only hummed softly.

Jade Lotus had noticed long ago that, after her elder brother left home, her sister-in-law seemed to have lost the vibrancy in her laughter.

Before, she always felt that her sister-in-law was glowing with light, wherever she went. Now, it seemed as though the light had disappeared, and she looked utterly drained. a while, he still opened his mouth."Could you please help me write a letter of recommendation"After leaving the county office, Zongyu returned to Li's small courtyard.Upon his return, he saw his daug...
