the food went cold.""Mother, please sit down. I'll go reheat the dishes." Fang Jinshu held up a serving bowl and was about to get up and head towards the kitchen.Mu quickly called her back, "No need,...Fang Jinxiu didn't expect Zong Yu to suddenly attack. She couldn't stop him in time. All she heard was a roar of pain from the flower-patterned tiger, and its mouth instantly filled with blood. The scene was quite gruesome.

Zong Yu still had one foot on its head, the flower-patterned tiger was in pain and tears welled up in its eyes but it dared not speak out. It looked at Zong Yu with a look of intense fear.

The star on its head is formidable and even the Flower-striped Tiger knows to seek help from those who speak kindly. Fang Jinxiu had just given it some good food, so instinctively it sought Fang Jinxiu's aid.

Those little eyes look so pitiful.

Fang Jinshu sighed. Ah Yu doing this was a lack of trust in the Hua Ban Hu. A normal person wouldn't trust a dangerous beast like that right away, would they

If it weren't for her suggesting that the Bengal tiger stay behind to guard duty, it would have lost more than just four teeth by now. It probably wouldn't even be alive.

She crouched down and took out the hemostatic pills she carried with her, stuffing them into the mouth of the leopard. Then she rummaged through her knapsack and found some hemostatic herbs, crushed them up, and applied them to the wounds on its four teeth. In a short while, the bleeding stopped.

The tabby cat was acting silly and clueless, like a big cat, constantly pushing into Fang Jinshi's arms and whimpering for comfort.

Zong Yu's eyes turned cold, "If you dare to rub against my wife's belly again, don't even think about keeping the rest of your teeth."

Fang Jinshi looked helplessly at him, “It's just an animal, you really think it can understand what you’re saying.”

But as soon as she finished speaking, the flower-spotted tiger trembled and slowly crept out from her arms.

Fang Jinshi was speechless. Could this thing actually understand

Actually, a Bengal tiger can't understand human speech. It's just that its survival instincts are stronger, and it's kind of naive.

Zong Yu's eyes were so terrifying, it only subconsciously felt the breath of danger and moved out from Fang Jinxiu's arms.

"Well then, I guess you're not so bad after all."

The more Fang Jinxiu looked at the tabby cat, the more she liked it. Seeing that it was quite hungry, she took out a lot of delicious food from her space and fed it.

These foods don't require much chewing, even a tiger with four missing large canines could eat them.

This melted the little tiger's heart. It raised its head and nuzzled affectionately against Fang Jinshiu's calf.

It seemed that their just-now beating and then sweetening operation had completely subdued the Flower-Patterned Tiger. Fang Jinshu patted the dust and grass clippings off her hands and stood up.

The atmosphere between the couple fell silent again. Fortunately, Zong Yu came to his senses in time and realized this was a great opportunity to appease his wife. He stepped forward and took the basket from Fang Jinxiu's hand.

"What other medicinal herbs are you looking for I'll accompany you."

With him around, things always feel a bit safer.

Fang Jinshi sighed, forget it, was she really going to have a cold war with Hu Ailan and Zong Yu until the end

If he hadn't appeared in time, she might have been the one injured.

"Just now, how did you get here"

She's the only one who knows about her trip to the mountain, besides the village head. Could he have been following her all day

Zong Yu scratched his head, a little embarrassed to admit it, but his wife didn't pay him any attention. He seemed unable to concentrate on anything he did.

"It's Li Muhai, he wants the blueprint for the mountain villa."

Fang Jinxiu only then remembered that the blueprints hadn't been drawn yet. She had found a location, though. The whole mountain was hers now, so she didn't need to consult the village about where to build the villa; she could make the decision herself.

"I've been so busy lately, I haven't had a moment to myself. Come on, let's go find Uncle Li."

Zongyu saw that his daughter-in-law was willing to speak to him normally again, and his tense mood finally relaxed.

Doesn't this mean the daughter-in-law isn't angry anymore

Zongyu used some grass he found to make a rope and tied it around Huabaanhu's neck. Seeing Zongyu, Huabaanhu was terrified and didn't dare resist at all. He obediently cooperated with them as they made their way down the mountain together.

A couple walked home with a tiger on a leash, scaring the villagers who came to draw water.

The moment they saw the tiger, they screamed and ran away.

"Goodness gracious, what is that Zong family boy holding in his hands"

"Oh my God, that's a tiger!"

"It's a tiger, but why is it letting the two of them walk behind it like this" After the initial shock, everyone realized that the tiger had a hemp rope tied around its neck and didn't seem to mean any harm.

They gradually stopped running away, some even bolder ones came closer to Fang Jinshu.

"Splendid young lady, you, all of you, actually brought a live tiger back"ght it made sense, and they marveled that the old Patriarch Zong looked fierce but his youngest relative cared so much.Village head Wang saw something was wrong and pointed at Zongpingkang, saying, "J...
