Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister

Chapter 162 It’s hard to persuade the damn ghost with good words

Li's mother was still willing to do a business that was guaranteed to make a profit.

This daffodil isn't exactly a stunning beauty, so she wouldn't cling to it.

"Mom, don't joke around like that. Where would he get a hundred taels?" Jiang Shuixian said dismissively.

"You really aren't leaving?" Jiang Changtian looked at Jiang Shuixian coldly.

"I'm not leaving," Jiang Shuixian said, pouting.

"Then you'd better watch yourself." Jiang Changtian said and walked out.

It's pointless to waste words on a damned devil.

"That scoundrel has no sense of romance at all," the girl who had just been beaten muttered, then looked at Jiang Shuixian. "Shuixian, your brother seems like a scholar. Aren't you afraid of ruining his reputation by coming to a brothel?"

Most of the girls who come here are forced into it, and many are even sold by their families.

It's rare to see someone come voluntarily. Even her older brother, Narcissus, came specifically to find her and offered to redeem her from her servitude, but she refused.

"He's not my biological brother, why should I care?" Jiang Shuixian didn't care at all.

Soon she'll be able to find a rich young man and live a life of luxury.

"Narcissus and Rouge should learn from each other. You'll be on the signboard tonight." Mother Li yawned and went back to sleep.

That hundred taels must be earned back by this little slut as soon as possible.

Jiang Shuixian asked, puzzled, "Sister, what does 'hanging a sign' mean?"

"Putting up the sign means preparing to receive customers."

Jiang Shuixian asked with a shy yet expectant look, "Is he a wealthy young master?"

The girls covered their mouths and laughed.

At this time, the Lin family entered the county town.

When they arrived, Lin Dahai found a car and took them to the entrance of the county town. The family was waiting to check their travel permits.

“There’s something wrong with your travel permits,” the constable said, pointing at Lin Hongzhi and Lu Qiaoqiao’s travel permits.

Lin Dahai asked, puzzled, "We're all together, we're all family, how could there be a problem? Sir, could you please take another look?"

"If there's a problem, there's a problem. Everyone else can go in, but you two aren't allowed in!" the constable said impatiently.

"How could there be a problem? You're clearly just deliberately making things difficult for me!" Lu Qiaoqiao retorted indignantly.

"Ha, you look like a thief with ill intentions. Arrest her!"

The constables were about to arrest Lu Qiaoqiao when Lin Dahai hurriedly stepped forward to plead for her.

At this moment, a man slipped a piece of silver into the yamen runner's hand, saying, "Sir, calm down. It's hot outside, so have some tea while you're on duty."

The constable discreetly slipped the silver into his sleeve. "I misread it earlier. The travel permit is fine. You may proceed."

The Lin family breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon entering the county, Lin Hongzhi hurriedly thanked the man, "Thank you so much, brother. How much money did you just give me? I'll return it to you."

They had never been to the county town before and didn't know there was such a cricket trail, so they needed to bribe someone.

"Paying back the money is easy, but do you know why we withheld your travel permits?" the man said in a low voice.

Lin Hongzhi shook his head blankly.

"You two, come over here and talk. You've offended someone, so don't let anyone hear you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Hongzhi and Lu Qiaoqiao hurried over.

Once they reached a secluded spot, Lu Qiaoqiao noticed the man looking around anxiously and said, "Brother, who have you offended? This is our first time in the county, how could we have offended anyone!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than four or five people rushed out from the side and grabbed Lu Qiaoqiao and Lin Hongzhi.

"Gag me and take me away!"

Lin Hongzhi's mouth was covered, which startled him so much that he struggled violently and was hit on the head with a stick.

Lu Qiaoqiao let out a soft sob as she was quickly lifted and stuffed into the carriage by two men.

“It’s been so long already, just for a few words. Why haven’t Hongzhi and Qiaoqiao arrived yet? Shall we go and check?” Madam Li looked in the direction the two had left with some concern.

The man had told them not to follow, so they hadn't dared to.

Lin Dahai was honest and simple, and Madam Li was also timid. They didn't think there was anything wrong with the man calling Lin Hongzhi and Lu Qiaoqiao over alone.

Lin Hongwen suddenly realized, "Oh no, have my brother and sister-in-law been kidnapped?!"

Lin Dahai was stunned by those words. "This... how is this possible? This is a county town. How could someone be arrested in broad daylight?"

"Father, have you forgotten the horse-drawn carriage that came to the village?"

Lin Hongwen was extremely anxious. How could he have been so stupid as not to react earlier?

The young nobleman in the carriage clearly had ill intentions.

The three of them hurriedly ran back in the direction they had come from, but sure enough, they didn't see the young couple.

Madam Li picked up a blue silk flower from the ground, her face instantly turning pale. "This is Qiaoqiao's flower; she always cherishes it."

The three of them were frantically searching for Lin Hongzhi and Lu Qiaoqiao.

As a result, they ran into Ms. Xu.

"Didn't you say you weren't coming to the county town? Why are you here? You can't lie like that!"

The gaunt Xu Shi carried a bundle on her back, her face full of meanness, with Jiang Shoutian and Jiang Laosan beside her.

"Why are you all mute? You know it's not right of you to do this."

Lin Dahai was so angry when he heard this that his face turned red.

Lin Hongwen said angrily, "My elder brother and sister-in-law are missing. I don't have time to argue with you."

"Father, Mother, let's hurry and go find my sister and brother-in-law. They know the county better than we do, so it will be easier for them to find us."

"If it's gone, it's gone. They're both grown up, how could they just disappear?" Xu muttered.

He quickly pulled Jiang Shoutian to catch up.

"What are you doing!" Jiang Shoutian impatiently shook off Xu's hand.

"Go find Jiang Changtian. Shui Xian is definitely going to find Old Jiang Changtian. If you don't follow them, how will you find where he is?"

Jiang Shoutian fell silent, thinking that he would leave as soon as he found Shuixian and would never cause Changtian any more trouble.

Fortunately, Lin Hongwen had visited Lin Shuyun before, and he was in a hurry to get there.

The three of them were so anxious that they didn't even notice Jiang Shoutian and the others behind them.

"Sister, brother-in-law, my eldest brother and sister-in-law have disappeared!"

As soon as Lin Hongwen arrived at the courtyard gate, he quickly knocked on the door and called out.

Lin Shuyun was doing carpentry work in the yard when she heard her younger brother's voice. She pulled open the door and saw her parents there as well.

"What's wrong, Hongwen?"

Lin Hongwen, panting and anxious, recounted what had just happened at the city gate.

Lin Shuyun's expression turned cold after hearing this; the man surnamed Wang was indeed after Uncle Lu.

"Narcissus, Narcissus! Where is my Narcissus? Where did you hide her?!"

Taking advantage of Lin Shuyun's inattention, Xu rushed into the courtyard and shouted.

Lin Shuyun put away the unfinished bracelets on the table in the yard, leaving only a table full of wood shavings.

Qin Niangzi, Xiaoqing, and Old Man Xu also came out.

"Changtian's wife, has Shuixian come to your place yet?" Seeing that Jiang Changtian was not there and Lin Shuyun was about to leave, Jiang Shoutian quickly asked in a low voice.

Lin Shuyun glanced at Jiang Shoutian, "Jiang Shuixian is at Chunfeng Tower. If you want to find her, go find her yourselves. I'm going to find my elder brother and sister-in-law."

Chunfeng Tower?
