Aunt Zhou was shocked, "Why is he dead? If I can prove Concubine Wu in the future, he might be of some use."
The third prince turned his eyes and said with a smile: "He is dead, but he was just a fake death. Magistrate Li had one of his legs chopped off, and he is now locked up."
Aunt Zhou calmed down and said, "I was scared to death. It turned out to be just a false alarm."
The third prince calmed his eyes and reassured her: "Zhou'er, Ruiyuan and I will be responsible for these things in the future, so you don't have to worry."
Aunt Zhou nodded and glanced at the incense shop in the backyard, "Okay, I will make incense honestly from now on." ?.?????.???
Speaking of making incense, she used newly picked nard to make new incense pills. The scent was more refreshing than the previous mint dew, and it was estimated that it would fetch a good price.
Du Wanchun walked out of Xiangfang and said, "Uncle Third, since it was a false alarm, don't be too nervous."
After finishing speaking, he pointed to the kitchen and said, "Mom, I specially cooked pig's trotters today. Look, it's delicious."
Upon hearing this, the Third Prince quickly walked towards the kitchen. Seeing the braised pig's trotters, he frowned and looked at Aunt Zhou and said, "You, you, I told you not to enter this kitchen."
Aunt Zhou smiled and said, "Okay, I won't go next time."
Du Wanchun's move really distracted the third prince. Now all he could think about was how tiring it was to roast pig's trotters. He couldn't let her be tired anymore, so he finished all the remaining dishes.
He was afraid that Mrs. Zhou would compete with him for work again.
Everyone has been busy all day and is all hungry.
Zhou Zhao helped carry the food to the front room.
The family eats in peace and contentment.
This week's family had a delicious meal, but in the dilapidated temple ten miles away, several gangsters were already waiting impatiently.
"What's going on? Why haven't the Zhou family gotten the money yet?"
"Yes, didn't Mr. Sun say that after today, the Zhou family will definitely bring money?"
"Is there something wrong with this?"
A group of people gathered around and felt melancholy.
At this time, a gangster who was responsible for guarding inside ran over and said: "Brother, it's bad, we kidnapped the wrong person."
"What was wrong?" The tall gangster was confused and stood up to ask him.
The gangster who ran over said in a panic: "We are not helping the mother-in-law of the Zhou family, but the wife of the Sun family!"
"What?" The tall man was startled and rushed into the ruined temple.
When Mrs. Sun saw someone coming in, she yelled at him: "You beasts, you don't even know how to kidnap people, but you kidnapped me!"
At first she had a cloth stuffed in her mouth and could not speak a word. When the gangsters took the cloth out of her mouth and gave her water to drink, she immediately revealed her identity.
The gangster didn't believe it at first, but it wasn't until Mrs. Sun told all the evil things they had done before that he hurriedly told his boss.
The tall gangster looked at Mrs. Sun, still a little disbelieving, "You said you are Mrs. Sun?"
Mrs. Sun stared at him and cursed: "Why do you have dog eyes? Can a peasant woman look like me?"
The tall gangster took a closer look at Mrs. Sun and saw that she was not a farm girl with her tender skin and tender flesh. Only then did he realize that he had really arrested the wrong person.
"lady?!"
He was startled and quickly untied the rope from Mrs. Sun's body.
Mrs. Sun raised her hand and slapped him hard, "It's really useless, you can't even tie him up!"
The tall gangster felt a little angry when he received this slap, but for the sake of Mr. Sun's money, he had to endure it and apologized: "Madam, I'm really sorry. It's because we didn't do our job well. You want to slap me?" You can scold me."
Mrs. Sun was so angry that she kicked him again.
At this moment, a younger brother who went to the county to inquire about information ran over panting, "Brother, something happened to the Sun family!"
The tall man's face darkened, and he turned back to look at his younger brother, "Sun family? What happened?"
The younger brother looked at Mrs. Sun, who was still arrogant. He lowered his head and whispered back: "The Sun family sent people to frame the Liu family and burn down the Liu family's shop. The matter was found out by Zheng Zhifu. Zheng Zhifu sent people to seal all his shops and houses. , took him back to the Yamen."
"After Mr. Sun was brought back to the Yamen, he committed suicide out of fear of crime!"
"Dead?" The tall gangster was shocked. "This money is all gone."
