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

The snake was in trouble.

The Third Prince jumped up when he heard the sound, and he hit the snake with a hoe.

The snake moved very quickly and ran away quickly.

The Third Prince's hoe did not hit the snake, but it made a small hole in the mud.

Zhou Ruiyuan looked into the distance, "Uncle San, it's okay, the snake ran away."

The Third Prince felt something was wrong with the hoe, and hurriedly dug down again, "Ruiyuan, look at this ground, is there anything?"

Zhou Ruiyuan squatted down and pulled the soil with his hands, and suddenly saw a golden thing in the black and yellow soil.

He was startled and said to the Third Prince: "Uncle, come and see, there is something here!"

"What is it?" The Third Prince came over to see it.

Zhou Ruiyuan dug up the soil and dug out a gold ingot.

"It's gold!" The Third Prince exclaimed.

Zhou Ruiyuan frowned and continued to dig with his hands.

This hole was very deep. Unlike the one or two pieces of gold last time, it was full of gold.

The Third Prince was stunned for a moment, "How can there be so much gold in this farmer's land!"

Zhou Ruiyuan took out the gold piece by piece.

The Third Prince followed and dug together.

In the end, more than a hundred pieces were dug out. One piece of gold was about fifty taels. There were about five thousand taels of gold in total, which was a considerable amount.

With this amount of gold, it was not only enough to build a house, but also to buy all the shops in Cheng'an County.

Zhou Ruiyuan turned the gold over to show the Third Prince, "Uncle, what do you see on this?"

The Third Prince looked down at the gold and saw a word "Lu" engraved on it.

"Is this the Lu family's gold?" he said in surprise.

Zhou Ruiyuan nodded, "Yes, this is our Lu family's gold, the batch of gold that was taken away by Steward Sun."

The Third Prince looked at the gold and was surprised: "Why is this gold in the Zhu family's land? Could it be that Steward Sun has some relationship with the Zhu family?"

Zhou Ruiyuan pondered for a moment and nodded, "Maybe there is really a deep relationship."

"This piece of land was abandoned only two years ago, and Steward Sun left the capital three years ago. During this period, he probably came here to bury the gold here. He must have known that the Zhu family would not Come back here to farm, or he is at Zhu's house, and knows when the Zhu family started to farm this land. "

The third prince frowned slightly, thinking, "You are right."

Zhou Ruiyuan hurriedly took his backpack and said, "Let's take the gold back first, and wait for an opportunity to trade it."

The third prince smiled and said, "With so much gold, we can build a bigger house."

Zhou Ruiyuan walked forward, ready to go home, "or recruit soldiers."

The third prince immediately understood what he meant and walked with him.

The two came home and told Aunt Zhou about it.

Zhou Ruiyuan asked Aunt Zhou, "Mom, do you know who are the people in the Zhu family?"

Aunt Zhou thought for a while and said, "In addition to the couple in the Zhu family, they have two sons. The younger son has not married, and the older son married a foreigner."

Zhou Ruiyuan felt something was wrong when he heard about this foreigner, "Mom, do you know where his daughter-in-law is from?"

Aunt Zhou shook her head, "I don't know. I haven't asked carefully before, but judging from her accent, she should be from Qingzhou Prefecture."

"Qingzhou Prefecture?" Zhou Ruiyuan remembered that Steward Sun's hometown was Wanzhou Prefecture, which was adjacent to Qingzhou Prefecture.

But the two places were so close, and his family might come back to Qingzhou Prefecture.

He then continued to ask, "Mom, when you and Wanchun went to buy land, was his eldest daughter-in-law around?"

Aunt Zhou shook her head, "No."

After hearing this, Zhou Ruiyuan became more and more suspicious of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhu family.

He thought about it. If the silver was really buried in the land by the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhu family, she should not have thought that the land would be sold. If she knew that the land was bought by them, she would definitely come here to find it.

Du Wanchun came over and said slowly: "If you have any doubts about her, we can go to the Zhu family to see her when we have time in a few days."

Zhou Ruiyuan nodded slightly.
