Chapter 176: Where the Irrigation Ditch Goes, She Calls the
es long. How could the young master give her all his funds"Madam Zong, this business deal between you and my young master is a bit...""Shen Li, shut up!"Fu Ming immediately rebuked him, not letting Sh...This matter, Fang Jinshi had already thought it through. Her husband, though he looked fierce, was actually honest and kindhearted. It would be unbearable for him to watch so many villagers starve and die of thirst while he did nothing about it, especially after the village head, Wang, broke his promise.
But they cannot just let this injustice go unpunished.
If there is one, there are two. If they really just let this go so easily, next time they might be asked to do something for them again.
She smiled, "The canal definitely needs to be dug. After all, the water source is quite far from our home, and it's not safe to always walk through the forest."
But this canal cannot be dug directly to the village.
Fang Jinshi's words made everyone widen their eyes in surprise.
"If you can't dig to the village, where do you dig"
She walked out, pushed open the courtyard gate and looked around her property, pointing to a spot that was slightly lower.

After digesting it all, Zong Bai also understood his sister-in-law's intentions behind this decision.
Clap your hands and cheer.
"I think my sister-in-law's idea is especially good!"
"It's so convenient for us to have water right at our doorstep!"
"Besides, our family has always been looked down upon in the village. My elder brother is also always criticized as a demon and a menacing figure, with people avoiding him."
"If the canal is dug to our doorstep, as long as a drought lasts for even one day, they'll have to be polite if they want to come and get water."
"Status has changed drastically, hasn't it!"Besides military affairs, Zong Yu was basically absent-minded in the palace hall.Fortunately, there was his brother Zong Bai, who was skilled in civil affairs, to help him out. Even if things went bad...
