Reborn as a devoted sister-in-law, she leads the entire village to prosperity.

Yu Banxia was so anxious she was almost in tears. It took her a while to remember, "It might have fallen at the place where we rested earlier. Uncle Zhang, please send someone to find it for me!"

"Young lady, don't worry, I'll have Brother Li go and find it for you right away."

"Brother Li, drive the carriage back to where we rested earlier and see if the girl's pendant is still there."

Zhang Zhenshan called Li Chengxiang over, and Li Chengxiang quickly clasped his hands in greeting.

Turning around, he left the inn. The innkeeper finally put down his brush, his brows furrowed slightly, but he said nothing.

It's probably not too far, so it should be fine.

Li Chengxiang left the inn quickly, and Yu Banxia went upstairs unhappily.

Zhang Zhenshan deliberately sighed and sat down, saying to Erniu and the others, "This girl is becoming more and more spoiled and willful as she gets older. With the Qian family's wealth and status, is a pendant really worth caring about so much?"

"Brother Zhang, keep your voice down, lest the young lady and mistress hear you," Qian Dalong said, putting on an act as he looked around.

Erniu glanced at the shopkeeper who was pretending to do the accounting and complained, "Don't even mention it. You guys are alright, you only came out today. Usually, I drive the carriage for the young lady, and if she doesn't do something right, she beats or scolds me."

"What do you think? Should we take advantage of this trip with the mistress and the others and sneak them away..." Erniu looked around and cautiously gestured to Zhang Zhenshan and the others.

Zhang Zhenshan quickly looked towards the shopkeeper, who was also clearly shocked, his body trembling slightly.

"How can you say such things? We're taking money from the Qian family, after all. Besides, the rich man Qian has treated us well. Shouldn't we at least give him some face?"

Erniu and the others nodded seriously after hearing this.

"That's true, let's just bear with it a little longer!"

"Alright, go do what you're supposed to do." Zhang Zhenshan put down his teacup, got up, and walked outside.

Erniu and the others looked somewhat unwilling and helpless. Seeing him leave, they all got up and went about their own business.

The shopkeeper put down his pen and waved to a shop assistant not far away.

The waiter approached, and the manager whispered a few words in his ear. The latter nodded and went to the kitchen.

As darkness fell, the shopkeeper kept glancing outside. The people who had left earlier still hadn't returned. Just as he was hesitating, Yinzhi came downstairs.

"Shopkeeper, prepare dinner!"

The innkeeper quickly replied, "Yes, yes, it's all ready. May I ask if you would like to eat indoors or come downstairs?"

"They're coming downstairs for dinner, so the manager should make the arrangements!" Yinzhi said, then turned and went upstairs.

The guy came over: "Boss, what do you say?"

"Go and prepare!" The waiter nodded, and the manager glanced at the stairs, then looked down and wrote something.

Not long after, Yu Banxia and her daughter came downstairs.

Dishes were laid out on the table in the main hall. Yinzhi took out a silver needle and probed the food with it. She then tasted each dish and said with a smile, "Mistress, Miss, you can eat with peace of mind."

"Alright, daughter, after a long day's journey, this meal, though simple, is much better than the dry rations we ate on the road."

"Try this," Zhang Wanqing said gently to Yu Banxia.

Yu Banxia smiled and nodded. The shopkeeper glanced at her curiously, thinking that she must be someone of great importance. But when he saw the mother and daughter's appearance, his eyes widened instantly.

This mother and daughter are so beautiful, they are simply stunning beauties.

The shopkeeper's eyes darted around. He had originally only wanted to rob the money, but now he had other ideas. He would keep the older ones.

If the young man is given to his master, he can probably go straight back to the capital.

Zhang Zhenshan and the others were eating at another table. When they were almost finished eating, Yu Banxia suddenly raised her hand and touched her head.

"Mother, how come you have two...?" Before she could finish speaking, she collapsed.

Zhang Wanqing imitated her, swaying her body and murmuring, "Daughter, what's wrong with you? Mother, Mother sees you have two..."

As she spoke, she collapsed.

Silver Leaf quickly imitated this, swaying its body and plopping down on the stool before leaning on the table.

"Oh no, there's something wrong with this food! Protect... the mistress and... and the young lady..."

Zhang Zhenshan stood up and shouted angrily, then swayed and fell down as well.

“You…you are, you’re a black shop…” Erniu and the others struggled, glaring at the approaching waiter and the smugly smiling shopkeeper.

"I only found out now, but it's too late. The man was killed. The older one was taken to my house, and the younger one was tied up and locked up. Anyone who dares to touch him will be killed."

The shopkeeper stroked his chin as he sized up Zhang Wanqing. When he looked at Yu Banxia, ​​there was also a hint of infatuation in his eyes. But this was someone he was going to give to his master so that he could rise to prominence.

Of course, you have to hold back.

Those men were all his subordinates, so naturally they dared not object.

The shopkeeper opened the hidden compartment of the cabinet, revealing the weapons inside, and walked towards Zhang Zhenshan and his companions, swords in hand.

Li Chengxiang deliberately walked in at that moment: "What are you doing!"

His shout startled the shopkeeper.

"Kill him!" The shopkeeper's face changed in fright, and he immediately shouted.

Li Chengxiang, without any fear, went straight to meet them.

The shopkeeper, thinking that with so many subordinates, he couldn't possibly be unable to capture even one person, walked towards Yu Banxia and her daughter.

"This little beauty is really nice, but unfortunately, she has to be sent to her master. I can't touch her, I can't touch her."

"Tsk tsk, your daughter is so grown up, but she looks no different from a woman in her twenties. She's a real beauty."

As he spoke, Manager Zhang reached out to touch Zhang Wanqing, who became extremely nervous.

She almost couldn't keep up the act anymore. The shopkeeper had a lewd grin on his face, and his hand had just touched Zhang Wanqing's face when a slender white hand grabbed her wrist.

Before the shopkeeper could even see who it was, he was kicked in the abdomen with tremendous force. His eyes widened in horror, and he vomited a mouthful of yellow fluid.

Yu Banxia dodged away in disgust, afraid of getting even a little bit of it on her.

The shopkeeper stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "You, how is this possible!"

"How could you not have fainted?" Yun Banxia scoffed.

"Your little bit of sleeping potion won't have any effect on me." Yu Banxia released his hand in disgust and kicked him again.

The shopkeeper was sent flying into the air, then landed heavily on the ground, his mouth hitting the ground.

Instantly, it became red, swollen, and bled profusely. When it opened its mouth, it vomited a mouthful of yellow liquid, along with fresh blood and several teeth.

Yu Banxia took out a porcelain bottle and uncorked it.

The ten strong and sturdy men instantly collapsed to the ground, unconscious.

"Swell...what happened? What's wrong with me?" The shopkeeper was in a panic. One moment she was fighting with her guards, and the next they were all lying on the ground. Were they dead?

"Arrest them all!" A group of soldiers stormed in, and the leader shouted loudly.

Before the shopkeeper could figure it out, Yu Banxia walked towards him, and then he also fainted.
