Chapter 435: The Killer Is Your Father

ly!Fang Jinshu saw the look in Old Zong's eyes and immediately felt that he was definitely thinking up some bad ideas, and they were extremely unfriendly towards her."Grandpa, if you keep staring at m...Zong Hu was worried about his younger brother Zong Yu, while also concerned about the murderer in the village. He feared that if he returned late, the murderer would escape.

He waited for Zongyu until the afternoon of the next day, but he still didn't see him return. He was so anxious that he was like an ant on a hot pot.

The county magistrate also had his own official duties to attend to, so he sent an officer over.

He thought Fang Jinshu should be able to resolve this matter. Let the officers simply follow Zong Hu back to the village to arrest him.

By the way, she could also send word back about her husband's infiltration of the bandit den and his continued silence. The county magistrate had a feeling that the woman named Fang Jinshui would surely be able to resolve this matter.

Besides, he isn't completely useless. Didn't he even mobilize ten guards to accompany him

Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't take this many people to apprehend a criminal and solve the case.

Zong Hu really couldn't think of a better way to solve the current situation, and in the end, he could only listen to the county magistrate's arrangements and return to the village with these ten yamen officers first.

They rushed back to the village.

There was no sign of movement at the old Zong family house. Zong Pingkang was terrified, and he couldn't sleep all night under the covers, anxiously waiting for dawn.

Logically, with such a big event happening, there should be news about it, whether the Liu family is dead or alive.

He spent the whole night packing for revenge, stealing his mother's hidden three taels of silver, and was ready to run away at any moment.

He certainly didn't want to be caught as a murderer.

After dawn, he went to inquire and heard that Lady Liu was only injured and not dead. Zong Ping could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

When he saw Liu's blood flowing so much, he was really terrified. It's good that she didn't die, it's good that she didn't die.

He felt as if all the strength had drained out of him as he returned home. Now, Old Master Zong was completely preoccupied with how to get into Fang Jinxiu's pioneering team. He didn't even have the energy to care about his eldest son, let alone where his daughter-in-law Liu had gone.

Adding to Zongping Kang's own guilty conscience, he casually fobbed off his father and ran back to his room to hide.

The old folks in the village had been quite peaceful for a few days.

Fang Jinshu waited for two days and finally saw Zong Hu return. Seeing so many officials around him, she was a little strange.

Upon closer inspection, where was Ah Yu from her house I couldn't see Tie Zhu or Uncle Li either.

"Big Brother Ah Hu, where are Ah Yu and the others"

Zong Hu lowered his head in guilt, "Sister-in-law, I...I'm sorry."

He told Fang Jinshu the ins and outs of what happened, and then he couldn't stop apologizing.

"In order to catch the murderer who killed my mother sooner, I have no choice but to come back first. But the officials given by the magistrate can stay and help us find A Yu. The magistrate said you must have a way to solve this."

Fang Jinshi heard the entire thing and was stunned, “What did you say You said I’m sure to be able to solve it”

What does this magistrate mean

Actually, given Zong Yu's current abilities, Fang Jinxiu wasn't particularly worried about his safety. A-Yu not returning might just mean he encountered a more difficult situation.

It's highly unlikely that a band of bandits could hurt him.

It's estimated that Ayou probably considered that Tiezhu was still in the hands of bandits and hadn't found a foolproof plan to save him for now.

Seeing Zong Hu's face full of guilt and anxiety, she said, "Well, for Brother Zong Hu, Liu Shi is after all his biological mother. She chose to bring people back first to help her mother find the murderer and give her a proper burial. After all, this is what a daughter should do. Perhaps this matter is more important to him."

Fang Jinshi didn't blame him either, she just patted his arm and said.

"Actually, I already know who the murderer is."

If you've done something wrong, your conscience will bother you, and a guilty conscience will always lead you to inquire about the news.

Then she just needed to observe in the village the next day, who would go around inquiring about Mrs. Liu's situation, and the culprit could basically be confirmed.

Fang Jinshi never expected that the one who killed Liu Shi would be Zong Pingkang, Ah Hu's biological father.

The people in the old house are digging their own graves!

"Do you know who the murderer is" Zong Hu asked excitedly.

Wang Yan'er on the side turned her head away, feeling distressed. If Ah Hu knew that the person who killed his mother-in-law was his own father, how much pain he would be in.

"Jinxiu, hurry up and tell me! I must make the murderer pay for their crimes!"

Zong Hu was very excited.

Never mind, he'll find out sooner or later.

Fang Jinshu lowered her eyes, "The murderer is, your father, Zongping Kang."us mind! She, just a little girl with no experience, actually wants to drive our entire clan out of the village!"Zongpingkang felt that Hu Ailan's words made sense and immediately agreed."Dad, isn't t...
