ills which he had witnessed firsthand, and the other with astonishing martial arts prowess, were not to be trifled with. Offending them would likely lead to unpleasant consequences.Zhao Jiu no longer...Fang Jinshu patted her sleeves, nonexistent dust swirling away as she stood up.

The old man's eyes looked like he was about to eat her alive, I guess he figured out that she had stirred up trouble between the couple.

But, so what

"Girl, I know you're smart, but I advise you to steer clear of this kind of unethical behavior. Breaking up other people's relationships is bound to bring bad luck."

Fang Jinshui suddenly found it amusing.

"When did I ruin someone's relationship"

"It wasn't me who sent my uncle to beat up his wife."

The elder choked, his face flushed red with anger. He wanted to lash out but didn't dare.

Probably afraid of getting on her bad side and losing the silver, so he's been holding it in.

"If you hadn't said those divisive things, Pingkang wouldn't have gotten into a fight with his wife."

"You're here today to pay Little Tiger's compensation. First, settle your own affairs and stop causing trouble in other people's homes."

Fang Jinxiu let out a sneer, "Some people are really strange. They have problems in their own homes, yet they blame others."

"If your home were peaceful and calm, who could stir it up"

"You!" Elder Zong glared at her, his hand even raised to slap her.

Tie Zhu and Song Changhe rushed to Fang Jinxiu's side, standing left and right in front of her.

"You are not allowed to hit Jinxiu's sister-in-law."

"Old Master Zong, do you still have any shame It was your son who chose to be with another woman while married and widowed. He's the one who brought shame upon your family, so why are you lashing out at Sister-in-law Jinxiu"

"That's just ridiculous."

The elder was so angry his chest heaved up and down. When Mrs. Wu saw this, she rushed forward to tear into Fang Jinxiu.

At the crucial moment, Elder Zong's composure held. He wisely stepped in and stopped her.

"Old man, don't stop me! Today I must rip that little bitch's mouth to shreds! Let's see how she talks nonsense anymore!"

Fang Jinshi uttered a chillingly cold sentence, "If you dare to touch even a single strand of my hair, you won't get a single penny from me today."

The old man was already frustrated and had nowhere to vent his anger, but he also had to put effort into stopping his own wife.

"Alright, alright! Can you stop stirring up trouble Who are you trying to rip the mouth off of"

"Little Tiger's arm is still waiting for silver to see a doctor and get medicine!"

For fifty silver coins, the old master Zong could swallow his pride.

With this money, their family wouldn't have to worry about running out of food over the winter.

Fifty taels is enough to buy half a year's worth of food for a whole family.

Right now, the most important thing is stockpiling grain. Food prices have gone up again.

As soon as Mrs. Wu heard about the silver, she didn't listen to Mr. Zong's further pleas. She immediately snorted and stopped making a fuss.

Fang Jinshi patted Tie Zhu and Chang He's shoulders, signaling that they could let go.

Today, thanks to these two boys following her, she really wouldn't dare to easily enter the Zong family's gate. She will definitely reward them well when she gets back.

"You've made enough noise, and you've had your fun. Now, where's the silver" Old Zong asked her with a dark face.

Fang Jinshu casually took out a piece of paper from her bosom and handed it to the elder Zong.

“Of course I brought the silver. Just sign this, and once you receive the money, consider this matter settled. Don't keep coming to our house for trouble afterward. I'll give it to you right away.”

Elder Zong let out a cold snort. "Why would I sign this"

Even if the second branch splits off, they will always bear the surname Zong. They are my grandson Zong Ta Yuan's descendants, and it is their duty to be filial to me.

"I won't sign this." The old man, Zong, was afraid this was a trap dug by Fang Jinshi and threw the paper away.

"If you want to give money, then give it. If not, you won't leave this door today!"

Elder Zong's inner rage was almost uncontrollable, wishing he could tear Fang Jinxiu to shreds.

He had never been treated disrespectfully by someone younger than him in his entire life.

Which child in the family, even Zongyu when he sees him has to be respectful. This Fang Jinshi, what on earth does she think she's doing talking to him like that!

Fang Jinxiu wasn't buying Zong Laotou's act. She calmly picked up the paper from the ground and brushed off the dust on it.

"I'm still saying the same thing, no signature, no money."

Suddenly, her gaze became incredibly sharp, fixed on Elder Zong.

"Grandpa, even rabbits will bite when they're desperate. If it weren't for the fact that you and Zongyu share blood with me, do you think you would have had the chance to bargain with me"

As soon as her words left her mouth, she raised her hand and shot three silver needles toward Elder Zong.

The elder immediately realized he couldn't move, and Wu Lao, who was beside him, rushed over. He was also stabbed three times by her.

They all turned into wooden people.

Fang Jinxiu clapped her hands in satisfaction, picked up a piece of paper, and with a needle, pierced the old Zong's finger. She pressed firmly to make the imprint.

"Got it!"miled and nodded, taking out the golden needles to prick a few acupoints for Zong Yu. This could temporarily numb his sense of smell."That'll do it.""Go."The common people carried the hot water and ba...
