The entire Huo family was wiped out, but the culprit had already died, frozen to death in a blizzard. So there was no way to find any evidence on Wei Ling'er.

Apart from Fu Jiujiu and Tang Xian, Zhou was the first person in the Fu family to know about this. There's no way around it; she knew quite a few ladies in the capital city, so her information network was very well-connected.

After learning about the Huo family's affairs, she muttered under her breath, "Serves them right," but didn't intend to tell her son, for fear that it would cause trouble between the happy couple.

Fu Tianbao had spent some time at the farm, and on his way back, he heard about it too. However, besides feeling angry for his little aunt and her unborn niece, he didn't have any other thoughts.

He pushed open the door, and Mo Ziyuan's eyes lifted from his book, smiling as he rose. "You're back? Why didn't you let anyone know? Have all the brothers come back? Is it cold out there?"

Fu Tianbao shook his head, "You look really good in this color of clothing."

Mo Ziyi's face flushed red, "It was chosen by mother, and the sisters-in-law also contributed money. If you like it, I'll wear more clothes of this color in the future."

"No, you don't need to please me. You look good in whatever you wear, just do what you like."

Mo Ziyi's heart warmed. She hesitated for a moment, since the Fu family didn't treat her as an outsider, she couldn't stand idly by. "Tianbao, have you heard the rumors going around outside?"

"Auntie and her unborn child?"

Mo Ziyi nodded, looking at the angry man. "I've come up with a plan, I don't know if it will work."

Remember the URL.

"Speak quickly."

“I was thinking, our family should have a good supply of food, medicine, and cotton. Why don't we donate some now? We are 小姑姑’s family, so this would not only give her face but also make those people think about how good she is to them. It has been many years since there was war or famine in Li Chao, and it has always been peaceful with abundant harvests. Surely the heavens can't just stop being kind? People still get sick!”

Mo Ziyi said that he felt sorry for Fu Jiujiao, but his little aunt didn't complain a single word. That's what it means to have a broad mind.

Fu Tianbao's eyes lit up. When it came to farmland, grain, and herbs, their eldest house naturally had the most. The other houses each had their own businesses and industries.

"This is a good idea, Ziyi. You truly are the brains of our family."

"Huh? Who exaggerates people's brains?"

“That’s right, my father and mother aren't very smart to farm the land. My brothers and I are the same way. Our two sisters-in-law are kind and filial, but they can't handle things. Only you, you should be the brain, and we'll be the hands and feet.” Fu Tianbao said excitedly.

"So, you're saying this was your idea?"

"No need, your credit is your own. If I were to say it, they wouldn't believe that I came up with such an idea anyway. But since we are doing this, someone from our family should also be sent to go."

"Are you going?" Mo Ziyi's eyes were filled with reluctance, after all, he had just gotten married.

Fu Tianbao laughed, "I'm married now, of course I have to accompany my wife. Let Sixth Brother go, he's single anyway. Besides, he's the best talker. If I go there and can't explain things clearly, we might turn a good thing into a bad one."

Mo Ziyi smiled, "Actually, you can go if you want to."

"I'm not going. I'll go tell my parents first. You be careful with your eyes while reading, don't strain them too much, just like Uncle Six."

Mo Ziyi smiled, if Liu Shu heard this, he would definitely scold them.

But Sixth Uncle always squints when he looks at things. His niece said he's nearsighted.

Fu Tian Guan relayed Mo Zi Yi's suggestions to his parents. Fu Da Jin also felt that as long as he could help his sister, there was nothing else to say. Zhou Shi naturally had no objections.

Fu Dajin and Zhou Shi went to tell the old man and his wife again. Although they knew the elderly couple would definitely not refuse, the family was still under the control of the grandfather, so he had to agree.

Fu Baimian nodded. "You guys have a conscience, knowing to help Jiujiu."

Tian Guihua glared at him, "You old geezer, your words are getting worse and worse. Over these years, which one of us in the family has ever forgotten Jioujiou? Don't listen to your father, he's become a nuisance now."

"Mother, I've been your daughter-in-law for half my life, don't you know your and father's temperaments? If you agree, then I'll have someone prepare it right away. We have cotton, but whether we can make the bedding in time is unknown. There's also one more thing."

"What's up?"

"That's right... Tianbao's wife said, our family should send someone there. What do you think, who would be suitable?" Zhou asked.

"What your eldest brother's family makes, that's natural... Oh no, Dianbao is married now. We can't send his wife back home."

"Yes, Ziyi doesn't mind, but I feel it's not quite right."

“It’s not a good idea, we just got married, how can we separate now? Our family can’t be unreasonable. Let Tianrui go. The rest are too young, and the older ones, he's not married yet, let him know that he still needs to find a wife quickly.”

Zhou shi pursed her lips, "Mother, we all want to go together, so you should say something."

"Alright, I'll take care of this. You two go prepare yourselves. Zi Yi did a great job this time. As Jiu Jiu said, from now on, your eldest branch will rely on him. Be nice to him."

"Mother, I understand. After following you for so many years, I haven't learned much else, but being a mother-in-law, I have learned quite a bit."

Tien Guihua smiled, "You're so sweet-tongued! Go on. This little one, has done so many good deeds, and yet you hold such grievances against him? It's really not right. I feel sorry for him."

"Hmph, it's just being ungrateful. If there were constant wars, people wouldn't even have enough to eat, they'd be selling their children and daughters, and then they wouldn't have a single complaint." Fu Baimian grumbled.

Tien Guihua glared at him, "What's so good about that? As a father, I feel heartbroken when my daughter is wronged. But I prefer peace in the world. Jiujiu being wronged isn't the Emperor avenging himself, is it?"

"Hmph, saying that it is like this, why would the Huo family out of the blue splash dirty water on our little Chirp? That girl is really hateful."

"Alright, alright, go busy yourselves. This matter will be over sooner or later. If you send it late, people won't be as grateful." Tian Guihua urged.

Inside Fenghuang Temple, Tang Xian waited for the coolness to dissipate at the doorway before entering. He always did this, and Fu Chiu Chiu's words fell on deaf ears.

Fu Jiujiu handed him a cup of hot milk after he sat down. She had also added some raisins and chopped nuts, making it fragrant and sweet. Tang Xian sipped it from her hand, feeling warmth spread from his stomach to his heart.

Just now, a message came from home saying that Tianrui is taking food and supplies to send to the northwest.

Fu Jiu Jiu raised an eyebrow, "My family can't stand to see me wronged, it's a pity that others can be rewarded, my family…"

She meant no harm, but she didn't want people to think that Tang Xian was constantly promoting members of the Fu family, which is why their positions weren't very important.

But at crucial moments, the Fu family still had to contribute money, effort, and even personnel.

In this regard, Fujujiao still feels a little guilty towards her family.
