read rumors about him."At that time, if you spread rumors again, it would be slander and insult to the imperial officials, and you would have to face legal consequences."She stroked her chin and thoug...Village Chief Wang pondered for a moment, looking at Fang Jinshi, "Zongyu's wife, then tell me, what do you think should be done."

Fang Jinshi said, "It's simple. There's no proof in words. Let all the volunteers who want to go up the mountain sign a risk liability waiver."

Anyone who disobeys the commands of Zongyu and acts independently on the mountain will have nothing to do with any consequences that may arise.

"Only when it's written down in black and white with signatures will they not be able to deny it later."

Tie Zhu felt that Fang Jinxiu was being a bit excessive.

"There's no one like that in our village, why are you so suspicious"

"After the water from the mountain is brought down, will your family not use it or what"

Fang Jinxiu raised an eyebrow. "This isn't being petty, this is self-preservation."

"We can help, but we won't take the blame."

Besides, we didn't say anything about going up the mountain to dig a canal. If you refuse to sign this risk liability waiver, Zongyu naturally wouldn't care about your lives either.

He wasn't obligated to do that.

"You!" Tie Zhu was about to say something, but his father stopped him with a wave of his hand.

"Shut up and get out of here."

Wang, the village head, understood Fang Jinshi's worry. Although he felt that this was indeed rather unkind, he still agreed.

Okay, I agree.

"Tomorrow I will have them all sign, everyone who goes up the mountain will sign."

After the matter was settled, Zong Yu escorted Fang Jinshu towards Wang Village Head and bid him farewell. The two walked a long way before he still stood at the door watching them leave.

"Dad, you're the village head. Uncle Zong wouldn't dare not listen to you," Tie Zhu said angrily.

"There's no need to agree to sign any liability forms for her."

The village head glanced at his son and shook his head helplessly. He did have some appreciation for that girl's character. If Zongyu married such a wife, perhaps their family life would get better.

"You, you don't understand anything. You have a long way to go." He pointed at his son's forehead and snorted before going back to his room.

Fang Jinshu walked past the village when suddenly she felt a warm, large hand grab hers.

She was thinking about how to write the risk responsibility letter more meticulously after she went back.

She would lift her head and stare blankly at Zong Yu, "What's wrong"

Zongyu was overjoyed, but didn't know how to express it. It was like holding his wife's hand, as if that would bring them closer and let her feel his emotions.

"No, nothing."

"My dear daughter-in-law, you are so kind."

He had a completely innocent look on his face, his eyes sparkling when he looked at her. There was no trace of fierceness or cruelty left on his face.

Fang Jinxiu found his silly and naive appearance to be particularly adorable.

In the past, I'm sure I lost out on things because of this kind of thing.

When someone is just a little kind to him, he gets so happy about it.

"Like an idiot," she said with a laugh.

"In the future, don't easily agree to help people with this kind of favor."

"If you encounter something difficult to refuse, come back and discuss it with me first before responding."

Zongyu nodded and hummed in earnest.

Looking at his daughter-in-law's gentle face, he suddenly lowered his head and leaned closer.

Fang Jinshu was puzzled, "What are you doing"

Zong Yu gazed at her intently, his eyes still holding a hint of suppressed shyness, as he tentatively opened his mouth.

"Daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law, I, I want to kiss you."

He saw that the men in the village were like this: when they were happy, they would hug their wives and kiss them. He was particularly happy now.

Remembering the last time Fang Jinshui didn't refuse his intimacy, she felt a pang of nostalgia for that feeling.

He subconsciously licked his lips, a hint of longing in his eyes.

"Huh" Fang Jinshu was startled by his sudden request.

"Do you want to kiss me here"

Don't they all say that ancient people were conservative

Has history fooled me

She looked around, anyway all the houses nearby had their doors closed.

Fang Jinshu has always been unrestrained, and she was amused by Zong Yu's straightforwardness. A kiss wouldn't be a big deal.

Then she pulled down on his neck, lifting his chin to deliver a kiss.

The instant their lips met, she could feel Zongyu's quivering.

Then he eagerly clutched her, kissing her with increasing ferocity.
