Zong Pingchuan retorted angrily."As a wife of a third-rank official, at least you should act like an elder. Look at yourself now, there's no difference between you and a shrew who makes unreasonable...Chang He and Tie Zhu were accompanied by Su Yusheng's four guards, making a total of six men. Their appearance caused quite a stir among the young women.

She hurriedly waved to Tiezhu and the others, "Don't all come over!"

Tiezhu and Changhe were truly taken aback. Why wouldn't Jinxiu's sister-in-law let them pass

Although both were full of questions, they immediately stopped their steps upon hearing Fang Jinshu's voice and did not go any further.

Fang Jinxiu turned back and soothed the girls, "Don't be afraid, they are all villagers. They are just worried that we haven't come back yet."

"Don't worry, they're not bad people."

Now, these young ladies were listening to Fang Jinshu's words alone. After her explanation, the girls calmed down.

Here, just two or three hundred meters from home, Fang Jinshu led several young ladies and it took nearly an hour's walk to arrive.

Zong Bai and Zong Yu brought Tie Zhu and the others back first to explain the situation.

Qin Qianqian was settled in Yulian's room. Zong Yu and his mother briefly explained to her what had happened to them today.

"Mother, this is Qin Chongyan, Dean Qin, a teacher from Zongbai Academy."

The Mus quickly nodded excitedly, "I know, I know, Dean Qin is a truly kind man. Back then, if it weren't for your leniency, my son Zongbei probably wouldn't even be able to enter the school."

Dean Qin waved his hand, "I'll be troubling your family in the future."

After exchanging some polite remarks, Fang Jinshi led the four young ladies to the front door of her house.

Zong Yu hurriedly told Tie Zhu and Chang He to go back first. Su Yu Sheng and his several guards also left in a hurry.

The entire courtyard was filled with men. Let alone these few girls who had just gone through such terrible experiences, even an ordinary woman would feel apprehensive upon seeing so many men.

"Okay, since Brother Zongyu and Sister-in-law are both fine, then we'll go back first." Chang He was very obedient, and when Zong Yu told him to leave, he left immediately.

As Tie Zhu was leaving, he winked at Zong Yu and added with a smile.

"Brother Zongyu, don't forget to come down the mountain tomorrow and help us dig the water channel. My father asked me to remind you."

Zong Yu nodded, "Don't worry, I won't forget."

Su Yusheng walked before Zong Yu, “Actually, I came here today to say goodbye. Unless something unexpected happens, I will leave your village and return to Muzhou tomorrow.”

"Don't forget to have Fang Shishen prepare the medicine I'll need next. By the way, do you still have any of those sausages you made last time"

"If I had the money, I'd buy some from you."

Zongyu always had a strange animosity towards Su Yusheng. He asked coldly, "Aren't you out of money"

Su Yusheng gave an awkward smile. “I don’t have them right now, but I’ll have them when I get home. I’ll send people to deliver supplies and silver to you then. The disaster in Muzhou isn’t as severe as this one, so supplies are plentiful there.”

To be honest, you might as well move your whole family and live with me in Mutsu. I can give you a house for free.

Before he could finish his words, Zong Yu grabbed his collar and threw him out.

I have a yard, I don't care about your yard.

"Get out!"

Su Yusheng was a little annoyed and muttered angrily with his back turned.

As he walked past Fang Jinshiu after leaving the hospital, he still couldn't forget the taste of sausage. He saw a business opportunity in it and, unwilling to give up, brought it up to Fang Jinshiu again.

"I'm really going to send you silver, just sell me some sausages."

Fang Jinshu also heard what Su Yusheng had just said inside, and there was something she found quite interesting.

"Can you still send supplies from Mokzhou"

Su Yusheng nodded readily at the request. "Our Su family has a caravan and transporting goods is nothing to us. We can deliver as much as you need."

Fang Jinxiu nodded inwardly. She was just worried about where to get supplies back.

The meager food that they had looted from the bandits wasn't much to begin with, and half of it was already left in town. Now that so many more mouths were at home, they really needed to plan carefully.

"Alright, come over early tomorrow morning, and I'll give you ten catties of sausage."

Su Yusheng heard Fang Jinxiu's generosity and was delighted, nodding repeatedly, "Fang Shenyi is indeed generous."

Just as she said these words to Su Yusheng, the several girls behind her were already scared and wanted to run away. She hurriedly waved at Su Yusheng.
