Chapter 423 All Prepared

wasn't without anger. He walked up to Zhao.They called you here to eat because they were giving me face. If you don't eat, just go home now. Who asked you to come out and embarrass me"It was Chulan wh...Mu immediately thought it was a big deal, making such a fuss.

"This child, Zong Hu, has never been one to take advantage of others since he was young. If it weren't for his wife, I doubt he would be comfortable asking you for this."

"Since the swallow just gave birth, she needs to nourish her body well. Eating only kimchi isn't enough."

Jade Lotus also chimed in, "If Sister-in-law Swallow wants to eat kimchi, that's no problem at all. Tomorrow, I'll personally go to her place and teach her how to make kimchi, and I'll bring her some fresh vegetables as well."

Fang Jinshi smiled and nodded, "Send some more eggs over. This wild hen has been clucking all day and keeps nesting in the grass, I guess she's about to lay eggs."

"When the chicks hatch, send a few to Yan'er too for her to raise."

Mu nodded.

After finishing her words, Fang Jinshi lowered her head and continued to help organize the things in the box. However, the glint of coldness that flashed in her eyes did not escape Zong Yu's notice.

The daughter-in-law has something she's hiding from him.

Zong Hu's older brother came to find her, it definitely wasn't just that Sister Yan wanted kimchi.

Fang Jinshi didn't mention her family background nor did she ask in front of so many people.

When it was time for bed that night, after the couple had finished washing up and gotten into bed, Zong Yu finally spoke.

"Zong Hu gege, what's the matter with you"

Fang Jinxiu knew she couldn't hide anything from her husband. She turned over and let out several yawns, pretending to be too tired to open her eyes.

"Nothing much, I ran back and forth on the mountain road several times today, I'm so tired, I'm going to sleep now."

Seeing his wife's fatigue etched on her face, Zong Yu suppressed all his curiosity. He couldn't bear to see her like this, so he simply closed his mouth and wrapped his arms around her, one arm under her neck and the other encircling her whole body.

Fang Jinshu subconsciously leaned against the man's chest.

Inside Luoshui City, Li's mother was packing her belongings. Li Yuanchun had fully recovered. Fang Jinshi's life-saving grace was something the child deeply remembered.

This time, his father is going to build a villa for the mistress's family. It's a big project, and he wants to go everywhere with them.

Li Muhui still felt sorry for his son. He went to the mountains to build a house, and first of all, it was too far away. Second, life in the desolate mountains would definitely be difficult.

As his son had just recovered, he didn't want Li Yuanchun to go and suffer with him.

"You just stay home and keep your mother company. Besides, if you go with me, who will help me get the materials ready in the city"

"I'm building a mountain lodge, you know. It's a big job and even finishing before the snow falls would be fast work. Stay."

Li Yuanchun was about to say something more when his mother walked over and interrupted him.

"Your father is right. If you're truly too busy later, you can help out then."

His parents both disapproved of him going, so Li Yuanchun could only leave silently.

Li Muhai took the luggage, "Then I'm leaving."

"Li Daniu nodded, “Be careful of your health when you are out and about, and be safe while working.”

After unloading the caravan's goods, Fang Jinshu let Tie Zhu return to Luoshui City with the merchants. This is the必經之路 for the Su family caravan to return to Mùzhōu.

By the way, bring along Tiezhu. There's safety in numbers.

He met Li Muhái, who had been building houses for people for years and had a familiar team of engineers, about seven or eight people.

The fees paid by Fang Jinshiu for the Gaishan Villa were directly given to Li Muhai. As for how Li Muhai divided the money among himself and seven or eight others, that's their business.

"Uncle Li, is everything ready"

Li Muhai chuckled, "Ready We can hit the road anytime."

"Hey, Wang, brother. You don't look so good. What's the matter"

Tiezhu has indeed been a bit tired lately. He's been back in the village for days, but hasn't even stepped inside his own home.

Before they set out in the morning, Fang Jinshi also mentioned asking Zhao Xingzhou to send the two little servants to the city to pick up Li Muhai and the others. However, Tiezhu refused.

Probably because he was feeling threatened, Tiezhu was afraid that Zhao Xingzhou's people would be more capable than him and Jinxiu's sister-in-law would stop relying on him.

He gritted his teeth and pushed through the mission. Now he just feels a little tired, everything else is fine.

"I'm fine, Uncle Li. When we are ready, let's hit the road. We need to reach the mountain before dark, or the path will be difficult."

Li Muhai nodded, muttering to himself several times on the way, “The city of Luoshui is relatively safe, but this road is said to be dangerous.”

"Wang, little brother, the safety of all of us depends on you."

Tezhu thought Li Muhai was overreacting. He had followed Jinxiu's wife and the caravan back and forth several times. Let alone bandits, they couldn't even see a few living people who could breathe.

"Alright, I'll make sure you get to the village safely. Go on." with Zong Pingchuan from her daughter-in-law.If she had known the person waiting in the lobby was him, she would have sent Jin Yu away long ago and wouldn't have come over at all.Fang Jinshu strode i...
