Chapter 521: A Bunch of Scoundrels and Villains
urn, constantly fanning myself with my hands.She must have slept very uncomfortably.Zongyu wanted to save up enough money to build a new house. He imagined a house where he could open the windows in..."Mother, Ah-Yu and I need to return to Fangjia Village to attend to some matters."
Upon hearing this, Mu understood, "It's about Xiaocao, isn't it"
The daughter-in-law was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. Xiaochao suffered such a great grievance and almost lost her life. Jinxiu didn't say anything out loud, how could she really not care in her heart
"I suppose so. We'll be gone for several days, so you and Jade Lotus should look after things at home."
Mu shi repeatedly nodded to reassure them.
After that, Jinxiu went up the mountain to explain a few things to Li Muhai and Tie Zhu.
"When my brother and I are away from home, if something happens on the mountain, go to Zongbai for advice."
Li Muhai and Tiezhu said that there are no major problems with the current construction of the villa. Fang Jinshu still trusts Li Muhai's technology very much, not that she doesn't trust him at all.
That's just it.
After dinner, she went around and reminded each member of her family one by one, making sure everything would be alright while she was away. Only then did she feel at ease leaving with Zongyu.
In the mountains, no one knew the paths better than Zongyu. With him leading the way, Liu Qi realized that the path they had taken before was actually a big detour.
It only took a morning to reach Fangjia Village by going through the mountains.
But without a hunter as familiar with the mountain environment as Zong Yu leading the way, none of them would dare venture so deep into the woods.
Liu Qi looked at Zong Yu's tall and strong frame, and his astonishing stamina along the way, a desire to recruit him arose in his heart.
He walked up and stood beside Zong Yu, "Brother Zong, it's a pity that with your physique, you didn't join the army."
"With the border currently unstable and skirmishes breaking out both large and small, it's a prime time for men to make their mark! Now that you've been informed, would you consider joining the military, perhaps even my unit"
"I have the right to recruit soldiers directly, we don't need to go through the official channels. You look like a good candidate for soldiering. I can take you straight to our camp's deputy general, he'll definitely keep you."
Liu Qitou spoke with great enthusiasm, but Zongyu ignored him from beginning to end.
"Brother, come on, give me a word."
"I'm serious, there aren't many people in our camp who can match your physical strength."
If you go, you're sure to make a name for yourself.
By then, with military exploits to your name, promotions and titles will be bestowed upon you, bringing honor and glory to your ancestors. Wouldn't that be far greater than being a hunter here in these mountains
Fang Jinshi kept following the two of them without saying a word, only subconsciously raising her eyes to look in Zong Yu's direction.
Ask yourself.
If Ayou really wanted to join the army and fight, what would she do
As soon as the thought popped into her head, she smiled and shook her head.
She thought she should respect Zongyu's decision, even though her heart ached and she didn't want him to take such risks.
"I'm not going." Zongyu found Liu Qi's persistence annoying, so he simply refused him directly.
Liu Qi's head went blank for a second, but instead of being discouraged by Zong Yu's rejection, he became even more insistent. He stuck to Zong Yu's side, constantly persuading him.
"Have you thought this through Your terms are really the best I've seen from any man."
If you came to our army camp, within half a year you would definitely become someone important.
"Which man wouldn't want to accomplish great things When you achieve success and fame in the future, your wife will be proud too."
Only this final sentence finally touched Zong Yu's heart, his expression changed.
Liu Qitou, seeing this, felt there was a play to be made. He kept persuading him, shifting the focus of his persuasion to Fang Jinshu this time.
And, Brother Zong, think about it. If you gain military merit and are promoted in rank, the court will surely bestow a generous reward upon you.
"I heard that earning a third-class achievement could get you one hundred taels of gold. If you converted it to silver, that would be a thousand taels!"
"If it were a first-class achievement, that would be even more remarkable."
At that time, your wife will be able to hold her head high in front of her own family. Those people from her family will definitely regret selling her for just five ounces of silver.
"And you don't have to live such a hard life anymore, think it over carefully."
Zongyu this time didn't refuse, it seemed like he really took Liu Qi's words to heart.
Fang Jinshi looked at the village before her, a wave of familiarity washing over her.
This must be Fangjiacun.
"Here we are."
As soon as she spoke, Liu Qi's head moved away from Zong Yu's side, ending the conversation.
Zong Yu did not state his position, instead turning his head to Fang Jinxiu and extending his hand.
"If you don't want to see them, I'll go and handle this for you."
Fang Jinshi shook her head.
"You can't handle the Fang family, I'll go instead."
Fang Dazhu and his wife were even more ruthless than the people in Zong's ancestral home.
Let Zong Yu go by himself, he won't be able to say a complete sentence, he's just a bunch of hoodlums.ways been speaking nicely, haven't I"She lowered her head and touched her nose. Pan Zhi'an looked young, but there were wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, suggesting he was older than he appeared.Fa...
