Chapter 223: Stay Out of This

ed that cold sweat trickled down his cheeks. "Esteemed guest, please calm your anger. Our auction house has existed for centuries. The Sky Lantern tokens do exist, but there are only three.""This is t...Zong Bai had a moment of panic, the town's school was closed

Where is Dean Qin

Fang Jinxiu secretly scolded herself for being too negligent. She had been so focused on family matters that she overlooked the external factors involved in Zong Bo's schooling.

If the academy is closed, even if the young nephew has a brilliant mind, he will not be able to take any future examinations.

She saw that Zong Bo's expression was off, and she thought he was worried about her going to school. She quickly spoke to comfort him.

"Don't worry, Zongbei. The schoolhouse in town is closed, but we can just go to the schoolhouse in the county."

"There's nothing impossible for a willing heart. Your sister-in-law would never let this small setback prevent you from going to school."

Zong Bai hurriedly shook his head, "No, sister-in-law, I'm not worried about not being able to go to school."

The headmaster of the academy in town was surnamed Qin. Headmaster Qin had taken good care of me since I entered the academy to study. He opened this academy not to make any money.

"The students at the academy were mostly very poor and didn't have much money."

"Dean Qin often paid out of his own pocket to buy stationery for the students, and he also allowed students who lived far away to stay at the academy to eat."

I'm a little worried about how he's doing now.

The town is in chaos. I don't know if Dean Qin still has food at home, or if he chose to move away like everyone else.

Since you're so worried, why don't we go to town this afternoon

Anyway, she had already planned to go for a stroll in town. If things really got chaotic, she'd better hurry and see what she could still buy and stockpile.

It's likely that I won't have a chance to buy one later.

But Su Gongzi said that the town had already started to go into chaos, and it might be dangerous to go there now.

Su Yusheng nodded in agreement.

"Yes, robbers and bandits are already starting to appear on the roads."

"My guards are all martial artists, and they look intimidating, so no one dares to lay a hand on them when they come in and out of town."

"As for you lot, it's not so certain, especially the women."

Their meaning was clear: Fang Jinxiu was worried that if she went with them, she would be in danger.

Fang Jinshi thought for a moment, and then pulled Zong Yu, who was working in the kitchen, out.

She linked arms with Zongyu and asked, "If we were robbed, do you think you could beat them"

Zong Yu thought seriously, "Without masters, no more than a hundred people, I can handle it alone."

Su Yusheng thought Zong Ge's words were a bit too boastful. He was just a farmer from the countryside, how could he be so confident Wouldn't it be a problem if there were more than a hundred people

Fang Jinshu believed Zong Yu would never exaggerate his abilities, and nodded in agreement.

"Who would be so skilled in this remote place As long as we bring your older brother along, we wouldn't have to worry about safety on the road at all."

Since things have already started to get chaotic outside, there are still many things missing from our home. Even if it wasn't for院長 Qin, we would need to go to town.

Zong Bo looked at his sister-in-law with emotion, "Sister-in-law, I know you're doing all this for me."

She said the house was missing a lot of things. That's just how my sister-in-law is, she's always kind but never shows it openly.

Actually, she just saw him worrying about Dr. Qin, who had taken such good care of her in the past, so she found an excuse to take him to town.

Fāng Jǐnxù may not know what Zōng Bǎi is thinking about. If she knew, she would be ashamed to death.

Well, Dr. Qin is a good person, so I actually went to see if he was in town.

If the academy really couldn't reopen, they would have to find another way to help Zong Bai with his studies.

Zong Yu saw that his daughter-in-law had made up her mind. He said it himself, this household was entirely under Fang Jinxiu's control. Even if he didn't agree with her going along, he didn't say much.

He would never argue back with his daughter-in-law in front of others.

He just silently decided in his heart that he would be more careful to protect his wife later.

After Fang Jinshu settled a few matters with Mu Shi in the house, she set off for town with her two brothers, Zong Yu and Zong Bai.

Su Yusheng originally wanted to let several of his guards go with him for protection, but Zong Yu refused.

Just kidding, asking others to protect his wife and making the wife feel useless is not a good idea.
