Chapter 446 Returning to the Village
With a wave of her hand, she brought all three members of the Li family back to the village.

Li Muhai's engineering team was missing two people, so he found two more people as replacements. As long as they had money and food to eat, there were many people willing to take on the job.

Fang Jinxiu and Zong Yu returned to the village with a group of people. When they arrived home, it was already dark.

Mu was waiting at the door again with a lantern lit, but why was the color of this lantern white?
The couple looked at each other in surprise. Even if the eldest uncle passed away, their house would not have white lanterns hanging.

If you want to hang up, it’s only right to hang up at the home of eldest brother Zong Hu.

The two hurriedly walked to Mu's side, and Mu was relieved to see that the children were back safely.

No matter how capable the children are, they will still be worried as long as they cannot see her. They will feel at ease only when they see someone standing properly in front of them.

"It's good to come back. Did your trip go well?"

Zong Yu and Fang Jinxiu always reported good news but not bad news to their family, especially in front of Mu family.

"Mom, do you think it's not going well for us?"

"We also found Tiezhu and brought him back. He suffered some trauma. I will find a time to go to Uncle Wang's house and apologize to them. This time it was my lack of thought that almost put Tiezhu in danger."

"I asked Brother Zonghu to send him home first."

When Mu heard that Tie Zhu was injured, she just frowned slightly and didn't ask further questions. It was obvious that there was something more serious on her mind.

Zong Yu asked, "Mom, why are you hanging the white lanterns?"

"Is something wrong at home?"

The two of them were instantly excited. They couldn't be so unlucky. They had only been away from home for two days.

Mu Shi sighed, she couldn't hide such a big thing even if she wanted to.

"Your grandpa is gone."

Fang Jinxiu was stunned for a long time, almost thinking that she was hearing hallucinations.

"Mom, who did you say left?"

"Old man Zong?"

Mu nodded, "Yes, on the night when the officials took Zong Pingkang away, your grandfather couldn't bear the blow and left."

Old man Zong actually died like this?

Fang Jinxiu never expected that the vicious and scheming old man would exit in such a way.

Zong Pingkang's arrest for murder had such a big impact on him.But when her father-in-law, Zong Laoer, was unexpectedly missing or even dead when he was rushing to take the exam, no one in the Zong family seemed to shed tears for him.

Old man Zong only cared about the interests of the family and ruthlessly drove the four of them, mother and son, out of the Zong family.

Now he couldn't stand the excitement and died just after seeing his eldest son being taken away. This old man was so partial until his death.

It was impossible to be sad. Fang Jinxiu was just shocked and surprised. After thinking about it carefully, she felt even more sorry for her mother-in-law and her family.

She turned to look at Zong Yu, but Zong Yu still had an expressionless face, with no clue of his mood or anger.

Mu said, "Things happened in a hurry. After all, he is your grandfather. No matter what he has done in the past, Ayu, you should still take Jade Lotus Zongbai to kowtow incense on his head."

Fang Jinxiu didn't care, could she still care about past grudges with a dead man?

It was entirely his own fault that Mr. Zong would end up like this. If he could hold a bowl of water in front of his three sons and not be overly partial to Mr. Zong, how could what happened today happen?

What kind of cause, what kind of fruit.

"You don't have to look at me. Your three surnames are Zong. I have no objection to giving incense and kowtow to Mr. Zong, but don't drag me along."

She is not so generous as to kowtow to someone who wants to kill her all day long.

She could indeed not care about past grudges, but that was just a matter of not caring about them.

Fang Jinxiu led Li Muhai and others into the house. There were so many people coming, and the place where they could stay had not yet been built.

"Uncle Li, I will trouble you to sleep here tonight."

Fang Jinxiu pointed to the floor of their living room. They could only lay the floor first, and build a wooden house for everyone to stay temporarily tomorrow morning.

Li Muhai smiled and nodded, "It's okay, boss. We used to go out to work. We have lived in all kinds of places. It doesn't matter if we lay on the floor every day."

Fang Jinxiu said, "As long as you do your job well, I will never let you suffer, let alone sleep on the floor every day. Don't worry, this is all temporary."

After simply settling everyone down, Jinxiu was ready to go back to the house to rest.

Zong Yu didn't come back, so he must have gone to his old house with his younger brothers and sisters. Fang Jinxiu didn't see Zong Yu come back until midnight, and she had a vague feeling about it.

It happened that Yulian's urgent shouting came from outside the gate at this time.

"Mom, sister-in-law, it's not good!"
