Chapter 74: The Stubborn Man Plays Hard to Get

ght him joy.He didn't speak, which was tantamount to agreeing to Zong Yulian's request.Just wait until Bai Lingzhi is in hand, then it will not be too late to deal with this group of ignorant mountain...Zong Bai scratched his head, always feeling that outsiders shouldn't interfere in the problems between his older brother and sister-in-law. They were both very independent people.

So he went back home to accompany his mother, not staying outside to meddle.

Su Yusheng just left like that, which made Fang Jinshu quite disappointed.

Shouldn't this guy really need the white lingzhi in her hands Why would he give up so easily Did she set the price too high

"Surely not, she clearly saw Su Yusheng wearing a top-grade imperial green jade pendant at his waist."

Something worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, he just hangs it on his body and runs around everywhere without fear of losing it. He shouldn't be unable to come up with 300,000 taels of silver.

She didn't mind not selling it for a profit, she only felt a little pity. In fact, whether or not Bai Lingzhi could be sold was irrelevant to her.

Whatever is in her hands will come in handy someday.

Besides, with this mountain here, she wasn't worried about making enough money to survive, so she wasn't too disappointed when Su Yusheng left.

It was instead Zong Yulian's words before she left that made her feel a little gloomy.

Out of the blue, why bring this up It made her a little afraid to look at Zong Yu's face.

She turned her head and saw that Zong Yu was indeed looking at her with a stoic expression, his eyes completely different from before.

Fang Jinxiu suddenly wilted, her voice softening. "Zongyu, you..."

She had only just opened her mouth to say three words when Zongyu suddenly turned and left, leaving behind only one sentence.

I'm sleeping with Zongbo tonight.

And just like that, she watched as he walked into Zong Bai's room. For the past two nights, Fang Jinxiu had gotten used to sleeping beside Zong Yu's solid arm.

His presence really made her feel safe. The two of them lay in bed, and she slept unusually well.

Even before crossing over, Mingming had a bit of a sleep disorder and was extremely picky about her sleeping environment, including the mattress and bedding.

This dilapidated bed was a hand-me-down from the Zong family. The last time I went to town, I only bought a mattress and sheets to put on it. Amazingly, just because Zong Yu slept on it, her insomnia miraculously disappeared.

Broke her picky constitution.

Fang Jinshi saw that all the doors were closed, so she had no choice but to return to her room alone and lie on the bed.

I slept for a long time but couldn't fall asleep. My eyes were open most of the night.

The next morning, Zong Yu and Zong Bai had already gotten up. One went to the kitchen to cook breakfast, and the other chopped branches in an open space beside the Zong family's house.

Fang Jinshi knew that Zong Bai wasn't very good at making breakfast. If she didn't help, breakfast would definitely be a disaster.

The Zong family is not short of food and water for the time being. She has taught Zong Bai how to filter the water, so they are now drinking clean water and it no longer affects the taste of their food.

But Zong Bai's cooking skills are really bad.

Logically, for her own stomach's sake, she should go into the kitchen to salvage things.

As soon as she saw Zongyu, her eyes naturally led her towards him.

This man, won't he be angry with her for an entire night

But what's he getting upset about She didn't say she was leaving the Zong family directly last night either.

Although she was unsure about the future, she definitely wouldn't leave for now. The Mus had been kind to her, and they treated her so well.

"zongyu, what are you doing."

I never thought Fang Jinshu would have a day where she had nothing to say to men.

She was usually the one being approached and asked to talk.

Zong Yu only glanced at her, his gaze flickering over the faint blue tinge in her eyes. He didn't speak, instead turning away to continue his work.

Fang Jinshi could only ask herself, "Are you going to cut down all these trees"

"But you chopped a lot of firewood yesterday, and the kitchen isn't short on firewood anyway."

"Do we have to pull up the grass too"

At first, talking to herself was really awkward, but with no one around, Fang Jinshu just let go. She didn't believe her reputation could withstand a day of ignoring her.

"These grasses have long since died, gather them into bundles and burn them when you start a fire. They'll help the wood catch much easier."

Fang Jinshi discovered that even though Zong Yu didn't acknowledge her words, he still followed her instructions and bundled all the grass into a pile.

She couldn't help but chuckle. Little thing, with that little willpower, trying to play cold war with her.

" Zongyu, don't you ignore me"

"If you ignore me any longer, I'll go down the mountain to find Su Yusheng."

Upon hearing the name Su Yusheng, Zongyu finally reacted. His chopping motion faltered noticeably before he finally spoke.

You're not supposed to be planting crops.

"This is a vegetable garden."

Oh, so you're clearing the land for her to plant crops.dence. Chang He was a little worried."You talk too much," he chided the talkative person.The servant also looked dumbfounded, "Little one, little one."Even if he didn't say anything, the eldest son co...
