ool the following year.The dean of the academy was fond of talent, and he uniquely granted Zong Bai a special case to pay his tuition in monthly installments.Other students' tuition fees are paid once...Village Head Wang hurriedly pulled him aside, instructing his son Tiezhu to go and stop the villagers first, calming everyone down.

"Uncle Wang, what's going on in the village" Zongyu was still confused.

The village head laughed and said, “You’d better ask your wife about that.”

When Zong Yu was still napping at home, Fang Jinshu had already won over everyone in the village with a basket of pork. Now, who doesn't know that life is good for Zong's second family

And the skilled wife is still a doctor who treats illnesses. Now, the irrigation channel is being dug right to their doorstep.

Some people in the village were indeed not convinced, but no one dared to speak out openly.

Now offending the second branch of the family is far more serious than offending the village head.

To put it bluntly, the entire village depends on them for their survival. Where would they dare to offend them

Don't dare to say those things about Zongyu being a demon or fierce anymore, just look at what happened to Li Gouzi.

My head is still swollen from the beating, and I'm lying at home, unable to go anywhere.

Today, only one child from the Li family came to participate in digging the water channel. Li Gou was confined at home and didn't dare come again.

"My wife"

"What is Jinxiu doing"

Village head Wang told Zongyu everything that happened that day. When he heard that Li Gouzi cursed him and his wife bought the whole village with pork to teach him a lesson, he was first shocked, then a huge sense of happiness and pride welled up in him.

If it weren't inappropriate right now, he really wanted to run home and hold his wife in his arms for a good long kiss.

Mayor Wang patted Zongyu's arm and sighed with satisfaction, "You really married a good wife, she takes such good care of you."

Now, there isn't a single person in the village who dares to say a bad word about you, let alone call you by that vicious nickname.

Zongyu suppressed the joy in his heart and smiled on his face.

He was brimming with energy even when digging canals up the mountain, a far cry from his usual cold and aloof demeanor that seemed detached from everything.

The villagers were still puzzled, how could this reputation have been restored after resting for two days as if it had been injected with chicken blood.

He didn't do much when we took them to the mountain to dig a water channel. He mostly just helped when they encountered particularly large rocks that were too difficult to move.

Now that he was up the mountain, he took the lead in digging, and everyone in the village was dumbfounded. For the first time, they felt Zong Yu's efficiency and strength up close.

They were miles ahead of everyone else, leaving them in the dust.

Under the lead of Zong Yu, who was the main force, digging the canal was incredibly fast. In one day, his progress was almost three times faster than what all of them could achieve in three days combined.

At this rate, it will take no more than three days for the irrigation channel to reach the foot of the mountain.

When the sun was about to set, Zongyu shouted "work's over," and the villagers were so tired they could barely stand up.

Even so, they didn't dare to complain. After two days without water, as soon as they reached the mountain, everyone drank their fill and brought along several water bags.

When they went down the mountain, everyone had big and small bags in their hands.

Wild vegetables, wild herbs, clean water, some people are lucky enough to catch two edible snakeheads, which simply envy all the other villagers in the village.

It's still better when there is honor.

Without the esteemed presence, they dare not come up and there aren't as many delicacies either.

The children of the Li family didn't dare to get close to Zongyu from beginning to end, and they returned empty-handed. He, however, brought back a water bladder filled with water.

But because it was his first time going up the mountain and he was young, he got carried away playing and forgot.

Everyone in the village knew what Li's family was up to with their children, letting them run wild and not making them do any work. They just let him be.

When Li Gou saw his son come home empty-handed, not bringing back a single drop of water, he was furious and berated him at home.

"Damn Zongyu! He must be deliberately getting revenge!"

"I don't believe it, this mountain can't be climbed by anyone else without him"

Li Gou's father had already had enough. There hadn't been food or drink in the house for days, and he couldn't figure out why his son insisted on going against the second son of the Zong family.

"Geez, stop scolding Zongyu. If his vengeful wife hears you, our lives will be truly miserable."

"Why don't I go up the mountain tomorrow Elder Zong wouldn't make things difficult for this old man, would he"

Li Gou was not willing to swallow this humiliation just like that, his son was so frightened he hid aside.

This kid learned to fill his belly with bugs like the villagers did way up on the mountain, and he drank plenty of water too.

Li Gou decided he would go up the mountain himself. He had been digging canals for so many days, apart from the big python on the first day, hadn't he seen any other wild animals

There's no danger on the mountain like that.mouth from drying out.Fang Jinxiu had just finished eating a piece of fruit candy and was about to spit out the pit when Zongyu already reached out his hand to her mouth."Ayu, could you bring the tras...
