Chapter 898: A Debt of Gratitude

e looked quite intimidating, and besides, he had money. They were just ordinary people, they couldn't afford to offend him.He could only smile at him again."Young Master Su, please don't stoop to my l...Xiao Yue was astonished by Zhao Wu's words. Was there such a shameless mother-in-law in the world

Fang Jinshu frowned. Zhao Wu was so afraid of her mother-in-law, it seemed she wouldn't dare to leave with him until she dealt with her mother-in-law first.

Where is your mother-in-law

Zhao Wu was taken aback, "Jinxiu, what do you want to do"

"If you don't want to do anything, and since you're afraid of her, I'll go talk to her first about your problem."

"Don't worry, I have a way. When have you ever seen me lose to anyone"

That being said, Zhao Wu had never seen Jinxiu suffer losses from others. Most of the time, it was her who made others suffer losses.

The only time I got taken advantage of was because of Xiao Jiu.

Because she trusted Xiao Jiu, but Xiao Jiu did that.

As soon as Zhao Wu thought of this, he felt a pang of guilt. Back then, Xiao Jiu had kept Jinxiu locked up at home for half a year and even tried to marry her when she was suffering from amnesia. Now that they were in trouble, it was Jinxiu who came to their rescue in the end.

"Xiaoyue, you stay here to take care of Fifth Miss, I'll go see Old Mrs. Du."

Xiaoyue nodded. The madam had many powerful things on her, these Du family members were just ordinary people, they wouldn't be a match for the madam, she definitely wouldn't lose out.

Actually, there was no need for Fang Jinshu to look for them. When the eldest daughter-in-law of the Du family brought the basket of fruit to Old Madam Du, Old Madam Du's eyes turned red.

She recognized at a glance that this basket of fruit came from Jinxiu Vegetable Garden. Now, the fruits and vegetables from Jinxiu Vegetable Garden are all the rage in the capital city, and she saw the label on the basket right away.

"Goodness, this girl Far'er brought back actually knows such powerful and wealthy people!"

"Hurry, hurry! Take me to see her quickly, or I'll be too late!"

"We can't just let her go so easily."

Old Mrs. Du hurried over to the three houses, with her two daughters-in-law following behind.

All three sons were out working.

Now, in this household, she is the one who makes all the decisions.

As soon as Fang Jinshu opened the door, she saw a sharp-faced old woman. Though her face looked mean, she smiled happily when she saw Fang Jinshu.

His eyes gleamed with calculating light.

"You must be Yunni's mother-in-law, Mrs. Du, right"

To deal with someone like this, just spend money.

Zhao Wu's body couldn't afford to be delayed, and besides, the capital was not Xi Zhou after all. Here, it was best to do as little as possible.

This was the first time Fang Jinshu had spoken to someone with such calmness.

"Aunt Du, I know what you want to talk about. I also wanted to talk to you about Yunni's matter."

"How about we go inside and chat"

This was the first time Old Lady Du had encountered someone like Fang Jinshi who didn't play by the rules. She even knew what she was going to say as soon as she appeared Acting like a god who could calculate everything with a finger snap

She looked at the other person's expensive attire. Fang Jinshu today wasn't dressed extravagantly, but her living standards had improved. Even in simple clothes, the quality of fabric and the few pieces of jewelry she wore were beyond what an ordinary peasant could afford.

Old Mrs. Du's eyes rolled and she nodded, "Alright, alright, come in."

After entering the house and taking a seat, Old Madam Du eagerly asked.

"May I ask, Madam, how did my third son's wife come to know you"

"Fang Jinxiu replied faintly, "The Zhao family was a prominent household in Xizhou before. Miss Zhao is my close friend, and we've known each other for a long time."

She only pointed out the two people's backgrounds, letting the Du family know that Zhao Yuni was not someone they could mistreat.

Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Du's face indeed showed a hint of embarrassment. Zhao Yunni's current situation was obvious to anyone with eyes; she wasn't living well in the Du family.

Could it be that this madam has come to demand an explanation

"This, this can't be blamed on us."

"We know she used to be a wealthy young lady because she came to our house with Yuan'er herself and kept saying she wanted to repay us."

"Those chores at home weren't forced upon her; she insisted on doing them herself."

Old Mrs. Du and her two daughters-in-law chattered incessantly, all saying much the same thing: they essentially placed the blame for Zhao Wu's misfortunes squarely on her shoulders.

It's clear they didn't intentionally abuse her.

This means they deliberately concealed some sarcastic and insulting remarks, intentionally excluding her. The tasks assigned to Zhao Wu were always the dirtiest and most laborious ones within the family.

Even without them saying it, Fang Jinshu could tell.

But she didn't want to argue with this family now, she just wanted to take Zhao Wu away as soon as possible.

In the midst of the chattering and clamor from Old Madam Du and her two daughters-in-law, Fang Jinshu pulled out two silver notes from her sleeve and gently placed them on the table.

Old Mrs. Du's voice stopped abruptly when she saw the silver note.ing the day, but they couldn't.As she spoke, she sprinkled the prepared seasonings into the meat filling. This was all thanks to her last big shopping trip to town. She saw that the seasonings were on...
