After being forced to marry by her stepmother, the Koi wife brings prosperity to the whole family

The maid next to her comforted her and said, "Madam, don't worry. We will go to Changliu Village in front and borrow a carriage from the villagers to go back!"

The eldest sister-in-law of the Sun family raised her eyes and glanced ahead, saying with disdain, "I won't ride their horses, they are dirty and smelly."

Before getting married, the eldest sister-in-law of the Sun family was the daughter of a rice seller in the neighboring county, and her family was relatively wealthy.

Later, she married the eldest brother of the Sun family. They were like-minded and cruel. She was the first to propose the method of using women's blood to make rouge.

For the sake of gold and silver treasures, she didn't care even if she knew that her man and Concubine Wu were not in a clear relationship. She only wanted silver.

It was she who first proposed to buy the Zhou family's incense shop.

At first, she did buy the Zhou family's incense shop for money, but later she saw Du Wanchun and Zhang Qiuhe when she passed by the incense shop one day, and she felt bad.

In the past, she proposed to do business at her parents' home, but her family dismissed her because women should not show their faces.

Now she saw that Zhang Qiuhe and Du Wanchun, two peasant women, could do such a good business in an incense shop, and she felt dissatisfied.

She did not think she was worse than them, so she insisted on buying the Zhou family's shop, and she also threw out the incense shop to make money so that the eldest brother of the Sun family would also want to buy it.

The eldest brother of the Sun family took advantage of her going back to her parents' home and rushed to the Zhou family to buy the shop overnight.

The bandits on the side saw them approaching and whispered, "See, there's a pretty peasant woman holding a flower in her hand! That's her!"

The short man frowned and said, "Brother, this is a main road, could she be a passerby?"

The tall man said seriously, "Didn't you see that she was wearing a Zhou family sachet, who else could she be if not a Zhou family member?!"

The short man looked carefully and saw that the woman was indeed wearing a Zhou family sachet.

This sachet was indeed from Aunt Zhou, with a Zhou character embroidered on it, but it was lost earlier and picked up by a peasant woman.

When the eldest sister-in-law of the Sun family was getting wet on the road and was changing clothes, she disliked the smell of the peasant family's clothes, so she took the peasant woman's sachet and hung it on her body.

Seeing that the person was confirmed, the bandits didn't think much and rushed up.

"Who are you?" Mrs. Sun was shocked.

However, before she could be surprised for long, the bandit covered her mouth with a cloth soaked in drugs.

She struggled twice and fainted.

The maid next to her was also knocked unconscious.

The bandit carried them both up.

Before leaving, the tall man told the short man: "You can read, go write a note to the Zhou family and ask them to redeem the people with silver!"

"Okay, big brother!" The short man responded and turned around and went to the village.

In the Zhou family, the third prince and Zhou Zhao happened to come back from the fields.

Zhou Zhao divided the fish caught in the pond into four parts, and waited for Aunt Zhou and others to come back, and then sent them to Aunt Wang and others.

The third prince went into the house to wash his hands and prepare to cook.

Du Wanchun and Zhou Ruiyuan rubbed the incense in the incense shop, and when they returned to the house, they looked at the door, "Why haven't mother and Aunt Wang come back today?"

Usually at this time, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Wang would have come back long ago.

The Third Prince steamed the rice and came to her side and said, "Why don't I go to the mountain to look for them."

As soon as he finished speaking, an arrow flew from a distance and pierced the door frame of the Zhou family.

Everyone was shocked.

"What is this?" Du Wanchun strode to the arrow.

Zhou Ruiyuan followed her and took down the arrow.

There was a note tied to the end of the arrow. Zhou Ruiyuan quickly took the note down and spread it out to read.

Du Wanchun stood on tiptoe to read, "Husband, what is written on the note?"

Zhou Ruiyuan looked at the words on the note and showed a look of surprise on his face.

The Third Prince also strode over, "Ruiyuan, what's written on it?"

Zhou Ruiyuan handed the note to the Third Prince, "Someone kidnapped my mother and wants us to pay two thousand taels of silver to redeem her within three days, otherwise..."

The Third Prince frowned, his eyes were panicked, and he looked down hurriedly, "Otherwise what?"

Zhou Ruiyuan's face sank slightly, and he said slowly: "Otherwise they will send my mother's head back."

The Third Prince's hand holding the note trembled, "What?! They are so brave that they even dare to kidnap Zhou'er!"

Zhou Ruiyuan looked up and looked into the distance, "The person who sent the note just now should not have gone far, I'll go and see."

"Okay, you go, I want to see who dares to be on my head

"The third prince said, holding the note tightly in his hand, his voice was cold.

That look was completely different from his usual approachable look, his eyes full of anger seemed to be able to tear those bandits apart in the next second.

Du Wanchun came up to comfort them and said, "Third uncle, don't worry, mother should be fine."

What she said was true, Aunt Zhou was indeed fine.

But she and Aunt Wang were delayed on the way back by the path, but it was not a bad thing, but a good thing.

"Sister Wang, come and see, there are still some here." Aunt Zhou squatted on the ground to pick leaves.

She took a hoe to dig the stems and roots of the leaves with pink and purple flowers.

Aunt Wang looked at them in confusion and said, "Sister Zhou, what are these things? You treasure them so much."
