“Something must have happened,” Ye Muyu said. “It seems that there’s something wrong with the wedding sedan.”
“Zhang Shu, go help.”
“Yes, Madam.” Zhang Shu jumped off the carriage with a stick in his hand. It was a self-defense weapon that was usually placed on the carriage.
After he went over, Du Heng, who was in the carriage behind him, also knew that something happened.
He had always liked to watch a show, so he got out of the carriage.
Not long after…
Han Zhuang knocked everyone down and pushed the matchmaker away. He lifted the bridal sedan and saw the girl tied up inside.
His expression changed slightly. He reached out and pulled the rag out of her mouth. Only then did he see who it was. His expression changed drastically and he cried out in surprise. “Miss Xiang?”
After a while…
Ye Muyu ran over anxiously, followed by Chu Heng.
When Ye Muyu saw that the person in the sedan was Xiang Ling’er and that her face was covered in tears, she immediately became angry and her heart ached. She quickly went forward and hugged her.
Xiang Ling’er threw herself into her arms and sobbed.
“Tie them up,” Chu Heng said, having guessed what had happened.
“Yes, Master.” Han Zhuang immediately dislocated everyone’s arms. After making sure that they could not run, he and Zhang Shu found ropes to tie everyone together.
At this time, Du Heng also came over. He frowned and listened to everything. His face was dark. He walked to Luo San and kicked him. He smiled and asked, “Speak. Who is Old Master Wang?”
Luo San immediately cursed. “Just you wait. When Old Master Wang finds out about this, don’t even think about leaving alive!”
“Yo, so powerful? Can it be more powerful than silver?” Du Heng squatted down with a smile and took out ten taels of silver from his waist. He seemed to be smiling, but his eyes were cold.
Behind him, Chu Heng raised his hand and instructed Zhang Shu to ask the nearby villagers for information. Since they were paying them some copper coins, it was very easy to get information.
Luo San saw the silver in Du Heng’s hand. A hint of greed flashed in his eyes. He licked his lips and said, “Old Master Wang is the king of Black Water Village. This bit of silver can’t solve so many problems.”
“Is that so?”
“What about the next one?” Du Heng took out another silver coin and looked at Luo San and the matchmaker. “If you tell me the truth, I’ll give the silver coin to you. I like to listen to stories, but I don’t like people making up stories.”
The matchmaker’s eyes flashed. She knew that the other party was also a tough nut to crack. Moreover, when she heard Xiang Ling’er shouting just now, she already had a bad guess in her heart. At this moment, her face was pale.
“I’ll tell you if you give another one.” Luo San’s eyes lit up, but his greedy personality made him make a stupid choice.
“Hehe.” Du Heng chuckled. The next moment, he picked up a stone from the ground and stuffed it into Luo San’s mouth.” Looks like a stone suits you better.”
Immediately, Luo San’s mouth began to bleed.
Chu Heng saw his good friend’s actions and remained as calm as ever. He lifted his feet and moved his position, using his body to block everything. Only the matchmaker could see it.
When the matchmaker saw this scene, her face turned white. She immediately screamed, “I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you. This is none of my business. It’s just that Old Master Wang took money to let me be a matchmaker. He wanted to marry a girl from the Xiang family as his stepwife.”
“Continue.” Du Heng had a smile on his face, but his voice was very cold.
“Old Master Wang is the only landlord in Black Water Village,” the matchmaker said in a trembling voice. “He doesn’t usually have any contact with the village. But for some reason, he suddenly found me a few days ago and went to propose marriage to the Xiang family.”
