sion and turned to leave.I'm going to the old house to ask.Yu Lian would absolutely never walk the mountain path alone at night. If she were ever kidnapped, Zong Yu's first thought would be his great-...Fang Xiaocao actually dared to cross the mountains alone to find Fang Jinshu, it must be that something happened at home.

Mu Shi felt deeply remorseful in her heart. If she had allowed A Yu to take Jin Xiu back to her parents' home earlier, perhaps they would have been aware of the situation there long ago.

Fan Jinshu pulled at the corner of her mouth, returning to her parents' home

Since Fang's family had already sold her, how could there even be a mention of her natal family

"Mother, where is my family Haven't you forgotten that I was sold to you for five taels of silver"

"From the moment I signed the contract and left Fangjia Village, I considered myself an orphan with no parents."

"I have nothing to do with Fang's affairs anymore."

"So you don't have to blame yourself, I never intended to go back home anyway."

As for my younger sister Xiao Cao, since she has come to me, it means she is a fortunate and blessed person. From now on, I will not let her suffer anymore.

Mrs. Mu and her daughter exchanged glances. From what the daughter-in-law was saying, she didn't intend to go back to Fangjia Village

"Okay, alright."

At night, Zongyu came back carrying a piece of animal hide. Xiao Hua was originally lying at the entrance of the courtyard gnawing on a big bone to sharpen her teeth.

The moment he saw the pelt, the massive tiger trembled and whimpered, hiding behind Fang Jinshi, trembling uncontrollably.

The male owner is really terrifying, whose skin is this short-lived ghost

Fang Jinshu kicked the cowardly tiger and rose to meet it.

"Back, what's this"

Zong Yu returned to the courtyard, tossing what was on his shoulders heavily onto the ground with a dull thud.

"Bear skin, and a bear paw as well."

Bear

Fāng Jǐnxiù was taken aback and hurriedly pulled Zōng Yù around in a circle, nervously looking up and down.

"Are you hurt How did you encounter a bear"

Zongyu grabbed her hand, intending to say he wasn't hurt, but when he met Jinxiu's gaze, the words died on his lips and he told the truth instead.

"A few shallow scratches on my side from the bear, I already treated them on the mountain with the medicine you prepared for me."

Fan Jinshu, upon hearing this, quickly lifted his shirt to take a look. The wound on his waist had indeed been treated, but it was rather rough work.

Mu and Jade Lotus Sect Bai were both terrified.

"Besides this wound, is there anywhere else you're hurt" Fang Jinshu asked anxiously.

This man has learned from past experience and always likes to take on problems himself, even avoiding the most difficult ones.

Zongyu smiled, “I promised you, from now on I will tell you everything that happens, and I will never keep anything from you again. I always keep my promises.”

"It's really okay."

If I wasn't afraid of my wife getting angry, and thinking about the last time I was attacked by a pack of wolves and injured, Jinxiu gave me the cold shoulder for several days after.

Jun doesn't really think this little injury is worth talking about. It makes him sound like a big man, being so dramatic.

"It's alright then."

Mu and Jade Lotus Sect Bai also let out a sigh of relief, "It's alright, it's alright."

"We've lived in the village for so many years, the first time we heard that there was a bear in the mountains."

"You're actually lucky to have run into me this time."

Zong Bai was also curious, "That's right, Big Brother, how did you run into the bear"

Zongyu said as he washed his hands, "It was others who encountered it. We just happened to be clearing the land when we found a perfectly flat rock face with quite a bit of honey on it."

The villagers wanted to get the honey down to exchange for rewards. Unexpectedly, as soon as they took down the honeycomb, a big bear dashed out from the forest.

Zongyu said it lightly, but everyone at home listened with heartache. The situation must have been very dangerous at the time.

It's just that his older brother didn't take the beasts seriously.

I, along with several villagers, managed to kill a bear. Since they helped out too, I gave them some of the meat. I only took the bear skin and paws for myself.

Jade Lotus cried out, "Big brother, how come you only brought back so little Such a large bear, no one in the village could possibly have defeated it. It must have been you who killed it alone."

"How can you possibly not eat meat You're missing out on so much!"

Fang Jinshui smiled, "Your older brother didn't suffer any losses."

Yulian looked puzzled, "What do you mean, sister-in-law My brother didn't suffer a loss. Such a big bear must have a lot of meat!"

She picked up the bear paw on the ground, glancing at the fur briefly.

"Bear meat isn't very tasty, you might not like it even if I brought some back."

Besides, the most valuable things have already been brought back by your older brother.n their conversation that neither Mu nor Jin Yu noticed them approaching until Jin Yu let out a light cough and rebuked them with a stern face."You have such audacity, to discuss the old mistress and...
