Chapter 930 They Suddenly Came to Their Senses

ung master, Heitu Town is experiencing a severe drought. Almost all water sources have dried up.""This is groundwater brought back from fifty li outside the town by the mayor's family. It's barely cle...Two people stood before Zong Yu, four years had indeed changed a lot of things.

His face, this simple attire, doesn't seem much different from four years ago. But after all, he is someone who has gone through countless battles on the battlefield, and his aura compared to before is truly vastly different.

To describe it as earth-shattering would be an understatement.

If the former reputation was like a large and heavy iron sword, standing there without leaking its sharpness, people felt safe just by looking at it.

Now he is like a whetstone grinding away the rust from an iron sword, revealing its sharp blade. Don't even think about looking at him, just getting close makes your heart tremble with pressure.

Four years ago, Chang He would have long since rushed forward to congratulate Zong Ge on his safe return.

But now, he felt as if his feet were weighed down by a thousand pounds, and he didn't even dare to look Zongyu in the eye.

"Master," Xiaoyue was older than Changhe, and since she served their couple the most, she wasn't as afraid of Zongyu as Changhe.

"Uncle Zong, Uncle Zong, what is it that you called us here for"

The long river, even if it tried to speak, couldn't string together a complete sentence.

However, Zong Yu didn't pay attention to these. Before the two arrived, his brow hadn't relaxed for a moment.

"Hmm."

"Who attacked the manor last night"

Zongyu had always been a man of few words. He kept Changhe and Xiaoyue in the front hall for a long time, questioning them about last night's events as well as those from four years ago.

I asked almost everything about the important things that happened at home.

It was only after he arrived in the capital that he spoke of his past. The events of those few years in Xizhou were recounted solely by Xiaoyue and Changhe.

Xiaoyue has always been loyal to Fang Jinshu. Today, when someone else asks this way, she would never reveal anything about the past of the young mistress.

Although Madam said she wanted to divorce Master, as someone who was closest to her, how could I not see that Madam still had feelings for Master deep down in her heart.

She didn't want Madam to be sad, so she told Zong Yu about Fang Jinxiu's changes over the past few years, including the hardships and grievances Madam had suffered.

Many things that even Old Madam Lian and Miss Yulian didn't know, she knew.

As they chatted, the conversation turned to Yuanbao.

When the young master was just a baby, the manor underwent a major reform. The village suddenly took in thousands of refugees. It was during this time that the mistress broke her water while tending to them.

"If Young Master Zong hadn't arrived in time, the young master might have been born in the refugee crowd."

During childbirth, the mistress was also in great danger. Her baby was breech, and it took two whole days and nights for the young master to finally be born.

"She fainted after giving birth to the young mistress and it took two months for her body to recover."

When Xiaoyue said this, Zongyu's brows never relaxed. These were all responsibilities that he, as a husband, should fulfill.

It is said that when a woman gives birth, she sets one foot in the King of Hell's palace, and life and death hang by a thread.

When Jinxiu needed him most, he chose to join the army on the border, giving up his responsibilities as a husband and father.

Not only did it cause her a lot of suffering, but it also dumped all the responsibility for the entire family onto her.

The large palm resting on his knee slowly clenched into a fist, Zongyu's face was tight, his head bowed as pain and guilt spread throughout his body.

The long river quietly tugged at Xiaoyue's sleeve. Even Zongyu ge is suffering like this, Sister Xiaoyue's words were too harsh.

Xiaoyue had long known that her words now went beyond the bounds of a slave's duty, and she did it on purpose.

Intentionally making the old master uncomfortable, the young mistress suffered grievances, why should she have to digest them alone

Only the grandpa needs to know about these things. Everyone else in the house can be oblivious.

You know what the young mistress has done for him.

More than an hour later, Fang Jinshu woke up from what should have been a deep sleep. She sat up and called out to Xiaoyue several times, but the room was eerily quiet and no one answered. This made her feel strange in her heart.

"Where did that little Yue go"

She mumbled to herself as she threw back the covers, got dressed, and got out of bed.

When she's not working, Xiaoyue never leaves her room.

Fang Jinshi had just finished getting dressed and was about to go out when the door opened from outside, and Xiaoyue walked in carrying some food.

"Madam, you're awake."

"Hmm."

The aroma of the food made Fang Jinshu's stomach rumble.

Let's see, from last night until now she has hardly eaten anything because she was too nervous about setting the trap. She didn't even have the appetite to eat.

Now relax, the more you smell this delicious food, the hungrier your stomach gets.

She sat down at the table and casually asked, “What time is it now How long have I been asleep”

Xiaoyue carried the meal to her, smiling and replying, "Madam, you've woken up just in time. It's just past noon, you only slept for a little over an hour."

"I thought you wanted to sleep a little longer."

Only slept for two hours plus

Fang Jinshu also felt strange. Logically speaking, she had stayed up all night, and both her mental and physical strength were particularly depleted. How could she have woken up after only this short amount of sleep

She picked up the bowl and put a chopstick of vegetables in her mouth. After tasting it, her eyes lit up.

"Well, the food today tastes pretty good."

"Who did it Was it Yu Lian or Qiu Ju How did they suddenly come to their senses"en me and Zongyu before."She argued with them because she was standing up for me.Wang Cunzhang glared fiercely at Hu Ailan. He had lived most of his life and had never seen anyone like this.This littl...
