ily's main branch, not a maidservant or lackey to Fang Jinshui!""From now on, you are not allowed to associate with her anymore. If I find out that you're secretly meeting with her behind our backs, d...Fang Jinshi asked Zong Yu to step forward and tear open the clothes on Zong Hu's arm. Although she had been secretly treating Zong Hu's injuries with medicine for Wang Yaner this whole time, she specifically instructed that only external cleaning was needed for the wound on his arm, and it shouldn't be completely healed all at once.

It's best to leave some evidence just in case we need to talk about it later.

Zong Yu tore open Zong Hu's clothes, and everyone saw the still bloody wound, and was shocked at once.

Even though Zong Yu knew this was a scheme set up by his daughter-in-law, just acting, but it had been so long, Brother Zong Hu's injuries were still so serious.

This is still Zong Hu's appearance after taking medicine to treat his wound. It's hard to imagine what would have happened to his arm if Yan Er's sister-in-law hadn't come to their house for help. He could be in a much worse state right now.

The situation is far more serious than he imagined.

Zong Yu's genuine anger was uncontainable, he didn't even need to act.

"Say, what's going on Didn't you get him a doctor to treat his arm"

The villagers also chimed in, "That's right. Back then, when they asked Fang Jinshi for a hefty sum of fifty taels, their hearts were so dark! Not even a single tael was spent on their own grandson."

"This tiger cub is the eldest grandson of their family's main branch! The patriarch is too heartless."

"For some time now, it seems like no outsiders have come to the village, let alone a doctor."

"They weren't invited at all. He pocketed the fifty taels of silver."

That old geezer from the Na tribe said a few days ago that he had a lot of grain seeds in his hands and even threatened Village Head Wang with them, demanding an exchange for water sources and wasteland. I was puzzled because everyone has been starving for so long, who would have kept their grainseeds How could they be so foresightful

"So all that money back then wasn't even used to save his own grandson, but was secretly spent buying grain instead, huh"

"Too cruel, too selfish!"

Everyone found the statement very believable. Fang Jinshu was rather surprised, though. The villagers were quite clever, managing to think outside the box.

It actually saved her a lot of trouble.

She gave Old Zong a cold stare. "Shouldn't your family explain things to us Why are you treating Brother Zong Hu like this"

All eyes turned to Elder Zong, who spoke angrily, "This is a family affair of ours. It's none of your business!"

"Didn't he just die One by one they come to my house pretending to be good people."

"Since you're all so kind-hearted, why don't you just take him back and treat his wounds If you can't do that, then just stop gossiping around other people's houses."

When the elder shouted like that, many people really closed their mouths. They could say they were willing with their mouths, but if they really had to throw Zong Hu, who was half-dead, at them, wouldn't that harm them

He is currently unconscious, his arms are like this, one wrong move and they could be blamed for killing him.

Everyone backed away.

Wang Yanne bowed her head frantically toward the crowd, "I beg you all, help me save Tiger Brother! Whoever helps me save him, I will serve them as a cow or horse!"

Wang Tiezhu suddenly said, "Sister Yan'er, it's not that we don't want to save Brother Hu. You and Elder Zong haven't divided the family yet. Saying this is your family affair, we're just meddling."

"What use is your promise When Uncle Zong Hu gets better, they'll just say, 'This is our grandson and granddaughter,' and this family won't even be theirs to control. They'll take you back."

"It's not that we truly want any reward. Under the circumstances where you can't help yourself, even after we saved you, you wouldn't even be grateful. It just feels a bit disheartening."

And what sister-in-law Jinshi just said is also right. Previously, Old Zong had a precedent of extortion. We really don't have that much money to be cheated by your family.

Wang Tiezhu's words completely humiliated Elder Zong, who was livid. Turning his head to look at Village Chief Wang, his eyes were practically spitting fire.

"Wang Qingshan! Do you dare let your son speak like that"

"At first, our little tiger was injured because she brought her up the mountain. I asked her for some money as compensation, what's wrong with that!"

Wang, the village head, didn't buy his argument and replied coldly, "That's not something you can just buy with a little money."

Wang Yan'er suddenly wiped away a tear and stood up.

"Isn't it that if I could be the one in charge, and have nothing to do with the old house anymore, you would all be willing to help save me"as so cold.""At least I'm their uncle, they shouldn't be so rude to me.""Originally, I was hoping to use my uncle's name to build relationships with them and eventually land a position of authority."A...
