Chapter 576 Someone Is Watching Me Outside

he heard Zong Yulian's terrified cry coming from Su Yusheng's room."Don't come any closer, leave!""Help! Monster! Help me!"Zong Yu's face changed drastically. Without a word, he kicked open Su Yusheng...Li Gou's matter is easy to solve.

After discussing the matter of digging a branch canal to Fangjia Village, Wang, the village head, let out a heavy snort when he heard that Li Gou had brought people from outside to plant seeds on the mountain.

Looking at Village Chief Wang's face, it was even more serious and stern than when he had argued with Zhao earlier.

Now the whole village is depending on clearing the wasteland and planting crops to get through the winter.

"The seeds in the ground are the life of the villagers."

"Even if you didn't come to me, I would have found you. I need to give your family an explanation, and I also need to give the villagers an explanation."

"This time, I will surely punish Li Gou and let everyone in the village know the severity of this matter!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Jinshu said, "Alright, then leave the matter of punishing Li Gou for stealing seeds to Uncle Wang."

"I just went to Li's house, but Li Gou had somehow gotten wind of something and ran off to hide on the mountain in advance."

"I reckon he can't stay in the mountains for long. When it gets too cold and hungry, he'll definitely run back down."

“You just need two people to keep a close eye on the foothills, and you’re sure to catch him.”

Village Chief Wang nodded. "Alright, I understand the matter. I agree to digging a water channel for Fangjia Village. Have their village head come over here."

"Good."

After the serious matters were discussed, Fang Jinshi didn't rush to leave. She wore an expression of wanting to speak but holding back.

Village Chief Wang knew what she wanted to ask and waved his hand at her directly.

"It's none of your business, don't listen to what Zhao Shuren is saying."

"Go back."

Fang Jinxiu could only nod in agreement.

As soon as she got home, she dealt with a pile of things and hadn't had a good chance to talk to her younger sister, Xiaochao.

Little Grass knew that her older sister had returned home last night, but with so many people coming and going in the house, she was a little scared when even more people arrived this morning. So Little Grass stayed hidden in her room.

Fang Jinshu just came back and saw Mu Shi standing outside her door with a set of clothes in her hands.

"Mom."

Mu turned her head to look at the door upon hearing the sound. Seeing that it was Jinxiu who had returned, she hurried over.

"Just as you came back."

Fang Jinshu glanced at the clothes in Mu's hand.

"Mother, what is this clothing"

"It's for your younger sister, Xiaocǎo."

When you were at Fangjia Village these days, Xiaochao has been hiding inside the house and refusing to come out. We had no choice but to put the meals outside the door. As soon as there was no one outside, she would bring them in herself to eat.

"But I gave her several clean sets of clothes, and she refused to change or open the door."

"I reckon she's got a hurt arm and can't change her clothes easily."

"I was just about to ask her if I could come in and help change it. Mom, remember what you said before, a wound needs to stay clean and dry to heal quickly."

The blades of grass have been wearing their clothes for days now.

Fāng Jǐnxiù took the clothes directly from Mù's hands, "Mother, rest assured, I'll take care of this."

"These past few days, thank you for taking care of the little grass."

Mu smiled and said, "With three young maids at home, plus Yu Lian, who would have me work so hard"

"It's nothing more than taking advantage of the spare time I have to give Xiaocang a few extra sets of clothes and shoes."

Fang Jinshu's heart warmed with a surge of emotion. Her biological parents probably had never even made a piece of clothing for her.

"Mother, you should only do needlework to pass the time in your leisure, don't tire yourself out."

"I apologize to your mother on Xiaochao's behalf."

Mu lightly patted her arm, "We're all family, no need to be so polite."

"I'm going to see if Yulian needs help."

Fang Jinshu nodded.

After Mu left, she turned her head and heard the wooden door creak open. Xiaochao had been standing behind the door since Fang Jinshi returned. She only dared to open the door after Mu left.

My sister only escaped death to get here. Fang Jinxiu wouldn't blame her for anything, she could only take things step by step.

"Second sister, you're finally back." Xiaocǎo pulled open the door and rushed straight into Fang Jǐnxiù's arms.

Both hands clung tightly to her sleeve, refusing to let go. This is a sign of extreme insecurity.

Fang Jinxiu had a question in her heart. Logically speaking, her mother-in-law and the others should take good care of Xiaochao, and all the members of the clan were quite easy to get along with.

She had only been gone for four days, why was the little grass so scared

"Little Grass, you and Second Sister come in first. Let me take a look at your arm wound."

The little grass was well-behaved. Staying by Fang Jinxiu's side, she calmed down completely. She followed her elder sister back to the bedside and sat down.

Fāng Jǐnxu let her raise her hand when she wanted to, and take off her clothes when she wanted to.

Little Grass's arm healed pretty quickly, she used the best medicine on her little sister, how could it not heal fast

After taking a look at the wound, she placed the clothes Mu Shi had just given her in Xiaochao's hands.

"Little Grass, could you tell Second Sister why you've been staying in your room these past few days and not coming out"

"Look at the clothes in your hands, they were specially made for you by your elder sister's mother-in-law."

The little grass lowered her head, her fingers tightly clutching the new dress in her lap. She didn't say a word for a long time.

Fang Jinshu sighed, "It's alright. Xiao Cao was always timid. It's normal to feel scared and unfamiliar in a new environment."

It's alright, it's alright. If Xiaochao doesn't want to say anything, that's fine. Let's take things slow.

She stood up holding the new clothes, just about to change them for Little Grass, when she heard this little girl speak softly. Her voice was so small that if it weren't for her excellent hearing, she would have almost missed it.

"Someone is watching me outside."d Village Head Wang were all the elders of the village.Wang, the village head, originally planned to go to Zongyu alone to discuss the irrigation canal. He said it was a discussion, but in reality, h...
