't fool me.""The person who truly needs medicine to cure his illness is actually himself."Zong Yu's brows suddenly furrowed tightly.If that's really the case, then Mr. Su's claim of marrying a woman t...Her whereabouts were tracked like she had a surveillance camera on her. They knew where she went, and even which inn she stayed at and which room.

"Well now, what brings you back Why don't you come sit in old man's restaurant for a while"

Fang Jinxiu was exhausted after a long day, all she wanted now was to take a bath, climb into bed, and snuggle up against her husband's solid and reliable body for a good night's sleep to recharge.

The portly old man ignored the resentment emanating from her body and laughed gleefully.

"Don't worry, there's a reason I'm looking for you late at night."

The portly old man glanced at Zongyu, clearly wanting to say something but hesitated for a moment.

Fan Jinshu gave a smirk and said, "Fat Grandpa, if you have something to say, just say it. Ayu and I are as one, there's nothing he can't hear."

"Between us, there are no secrets."

Hearing this, Zong Yu's eyes softened beyond measure, brimming with love.

Fan Jinxiu mischievously winked at him, and Zong Yu immediately blushed.

There are still outsiders here, the daughter-in-law is too bold.

The portly old man, seeing how good the couple's relationship was, nodded in agreement. "Alright," he said.

"I'll just be straight with you."

Today, the magistrate went out to the suburbs of the city and wiped out a gang of bandits. The soldiers found a large amount of gold and silver in the bandit's lair. Strangely, there was no stored food or other supplies.

"Logically, there shouldn't be none. This group of bandits has been entrenched in the suburbs for a long time; it's impossible that they wouldn't have any supplies stored."

Fang Jinshi heard, with a seemingly calm expression on her face, but in reality, she was also internally calm!

Well, she ransacked the bandits' lair and took all their supplies, but no one saw her. Who could possibly hold her accountable

Just because the county magistrate exploits her and doesn't even allow her a reward

That's not right, how could that fat old man know about this He came to find me late at night, he was clearly suspicious that something had been taken by her.

“Old man, what use is it for you to tell me about the county magistrate Look at my husband and I, we rushed out empty-handed, not even a bag was brought. You wouldn't suspect that I took those bandits' supplies, would you”

"This is ridiculous."

The chubby old man narrowed his eyes slightly.

This was also what struck him as strange.

"Heh heh, I'm not here for the supplies. I heard there was a batch of weapons in the hands of bandits."

Hearing the word "weaponry," Fang Jinshui's heart skipped a beat.

What's this old geezer's background How does he know everything

"Grandpa, I don't understand what you're saying."

No matter where he came from, anything that went into Fang Jinshi's pocket stayed there. She earned everything she had.

"Don't worry if you don't understand, girl. These weapons can't be exposed easily, or it will cause you big trouble. Be careful with everything."

Fang Jinshu was slightly taken aback, and truly took this sentence to heart.

Before, she didn't think too much about it. In ancient times, making weapons should have been a big deal, right Perhaps there would really be trouble.

"Grandpa, thank you."

The old man chuckled again, and Fang Jinxiu felt uneasy at his smile. She found him more and more mysterious.

"Alright, I'm finished with what I wanted to say. I won't disturb your rest."

"Girl, the recipe you gave me really works, thank you so much."

After bidding farewell to the plump old man, Fang Jinshu's expression instantly turned serious. The drowsiness vanished, and even Zong Yu noticed something was amiss.

"How did he find out you took the bandit's weapons"

Fang Jinshi shook her head. "I don't know, this old man's identity is not simple."

She even suspected, could he be another time traveler, perhaps someone who had crossed over before her

Otherwise, why would she give him the impression that all her secrets were transparent before him

"Forget it, let's just go to sleep. If the old man had ill intentions towards us, he wouldn't have come over at this late hour to remind us about this."

It's best to keep this batch of weapons under wraps for now. The manor won't be finished anytime soon anyway. I'll definitely find a chance to investigate the old man later.

Fang Jinshi thought of one person, perhaps she should write a letter to Su Yusheng.

My household has been too busy lately, and I wasn't even able to give the merchants any local specialties when they left. Though she asked the merchants to bring a message back to Su Yu Sheng, I'm afraid those words wouldn't be enough if I wanted to ask for his help.

Can you help investigate Fatty's background The only person she knows is Su Yusheng, rightad to be serious with them and give them a good talking-to so they would remember it.“Zongyu has warned you more than once not to go up the mountain at night.”"Why you're not allowed to go up the moun...
