Chapter Twenty-Nine: Brother Hanhan, a shrewd stepmother, is a blessing or a curse

Brother Cao Ang? What about people?

A big question mark floated on Cao Shuo's head, the entire Cao Mansion? Everyone has asked, where is Cao Ang's figure?

Won't it be stealing money to get caught? A beating? Or put him in the ancestral hall and punish him for kneeling, right?

But... Ding Hui with a good face and an evil heart? Will Cao Ang be punished so blatantly? Isn't this a big smear of her motherly image!

The more he thought about it, the more puzzled Cao Shuo became, and there was a little more worry between his eyebrows...

"Brother Cao Shuo..." I heard a voice, and it seemed to come from behind the big locust tree in the courtyard... Coming from the lush flowers, as for the timbre... Isn't it? Brother Cao Ang?

Cao Shuo turned his head... Seeing the figures in the grass, looking around... There was no one around, so he quietly walked over.

Under the cover of the rockery and the cover of the flowers, Cao Ang was finally found! Brother Cao Ang lying on his stomach like a turtle...

"Brother Cao Ang? Are you squatting in the grass? ”

"Brother Cao Shuo, get down and see what this is?" Without answering Cao Shuo's question, Cao Ang hurriedly greeted.

Following Cao Ang's gaze, Cao Shuo noticed... In the flowers, there is a deep hole? Looks like it was just dug up... As for the inside of the cave...

Cao Shuo squatted down... When I poked my head over, I found that all I found in the deep cave were jewelry, gold and silver, jewelry... In terms of color, it is worth a lot...

Wait a minute... Cao Shuo was a little confused, didn't he just steal money? As for... Still digging a hole? Is Cao Ang a gopher?

"Brother Cao Ang... This gold and silver jewelry is here, can I understand? Can... Why do you bury them in a hole? ”

"Shhhh Too much. Cao Ang tried his best to keep his voice low, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the entrance of the cave, and subconsciously filled it with some soil, looking very weak. Hide A-Niang's jewels in this, and others won't know..."

Belch...

Connection... Cao Shuo has deep doubts about the IQ of Cao Ang's own brother? This kid? Are you still so unenlightened at the age of ten? Is this stupid? This garden and grass are so big, even if there are some rockeries and big trees to cover, but occasionally a person comes over and sees the nearby mound? Won't be a little skeptical?

Thinking of this, Cao Shuo wiped his sweat and smiled bitterly. "Brother Cao Ang? … This flower bush is so big? You'll bury it today, and you'll forget about it tomorrow..."

"It's easy!" Cao Ang pointed to a small wooden plaque... By the way, I read out the font above - there are no gold or silver jewels here...

I'll go... There are no three hundred taels of silver here?

Cao Shuo wanted to cry... I want to cry hard for my brother Cao Ang's IQ... Look at this child taught by Mrs. Ding, kindness is kindness, simplicity is simplicity... But if it's too much, it's about to become "Hanhan"!

"Alright, alright... Brother Cao Ang doesn't need to bury it! Cao Shuo hurriedly stopped him..."This money, we will use it today."

"Ahh In such a hurry? Cao Ang raised his head, looking a little nervous and nervous...

"Tell me first? Steal... Ah no, how much did you steal Mrs. Ding? "Dialogue with Cao Ang, a "simple man", try to be concise...

Cao Shuo simply lay down and tried his best to reduce his IQ to the same height as him...

"These are..."Cao Ang put aside the soil, and at first glance there was a lot of gold, silver and jewelry... It is estimated that the sale can exceed 10,000 five-baht coins.

But Cao Shuo knows, how can these be enough? Hoarding Hu people's utensils? Even if it is multiplied tenfold, it will not be enough to fill the deficit in the treasury ... Not to mention, I still want to leave some private money.

Seeing this, Cao Shuo couldn't help but be a little disappointed... Sure enough, stepmother Ding Hui is not as wealthy as she imagined...

Hey... Wait, what's that?

Suddenly, Cao Shuo noticed that there were some silk cloths buried in the soil pit, which were in brown-red font, which should have been issued by the government...

"What's that?" Cao Shuo took the initiative to ask...

"Title deeds." At the mention of this, Cao Ang seemed quite pleased. "Originally, there was no title deed in the dark? But... When I went to pick it up a few times later, I was stunned that there were more of these... I took it with my hand, but I didn't expect that A-Niang still had the title deed in her hand! This should sell for a lot of money, right? ”

Cao Ang's joy is about to come out... Who doesn't know, these days, the title deed is worth a lot!

Not... This...

Cao Shuo picked up the soil and took out some of the land deeds... Carefully swept it, where is Ding Hui's title deed? It is clearly the Cao family's property in Kyoto, in Qiaoxian County, and even in Langya County, Xuzhou... Acres, real estate, shops... Speaking of which, in the entire Cao Mansion, there are no more things that are more valuable than them.

Wrong!

All of a sudden, Cao Shuo became alert... How could the title deed of Cao's Mansion appear in the secret compartment of Mrs. Ding's room? Something so important? Shouldn't it be in the storeroom? If there is no "housekeeper" Ding Hui's approval... Who would dare to move...

If so... That...

Cao Shuo's eyes looked at Cao Ang..."Were you discovered by A-Niang?" ”

"Nope!" Cao Ang waved his hand again and again, very determined. "At first, I was scared and tiptoeing, but the last few times... I don't know why, in A-Niang's pavilion... The servants are always careless, and it has become much easier for me to slip in..."

Treacherous! Stone hammered! It must be a treacherous scheme!

… Ding Hui must have noticed Cao Ang's actions.

Instead of blocking it, she added all the title deeds of Cao's mansion... This is the rhythm of adding a fire!

It seems that she is determined to make a big fuss... It's irreparable, so to speak... Ding Hui must have figured out that this matter was the mastermind behind Cao Shuo, and he wanted to use this to deal a big blow to Cao Shuo?

Really... Mrs. Ding's heart is not dead...

After some deep thought, a few beads of sweat faintly appeared on Cao Shuo's brows.

"Brother Cao Shuo... What's wrong? Cao Ang continued to ask, "Shouldn't I have taken the title deed?" It's too expensive, isn't it? ”

"Hmm... No..."Cao Shuo waved his hand... After a short hesitation, the corners of his mouth flickered, and a faint smile suddenly appeared. "Expensive? If they don't exist, these title deeds are not enough..."

At this moment, Cao Shuo already has an idea in his heart... Since Ding Hui wants to make a big deal about it, she simply makes a big fuss... Cao Shuo is determined... In the fourth year of light and harmony, "Hu Feng" will definitely blow... When the time comes, these title deeds will make untold sumptuous... It will be returned back by a number of multiples!

Let alone... Compared to the Cao family's crisis of filling the treasury? These mere title deeds? And what is it? If the treasury cannot be filled... If you can't keep it even, Zhang Rang will make it bad, and the entire Cao family will be cold! Under the nest, Ann has finished eggs?

"Brother Cao Ang..."Cao Shuo's tone carried a touch of firmness. You don't need to care about anything else, just go to A-Niang's room again, and there will be a steady stream of title deeds in that dark grid... Don't hesitate, take it all as long as you have it! ”

Yes... Cao Ang was shocked, do you want to take it?

"But... But I've taken all the title deeds, and there's not much jewelry left, so take it again? I'm afraid that A-Niang will definitely find out, right? ”

In the face of Cao Ang, this is very stupid and naΓ―ve questioning... Cao Shuo said "hehe".

Found... Ding Hui found out early on, and now she is thinking about making a big fuss... Cao Shuo also pondered that he would plan it!

Considering Cao Ang's IQ, Cao Shuo simply didn't explain so much. "Don't worry, you just have to go... There will be jewels, there will be land deeds, and you will have your mahogany sword, mahogany sword, ebony sword... Everything will be there..."

Speaking of this, Cao Shuo put his hand on Cao Ang's shoulder and patted it lightly a few times. "Brother Cao Ang, I think you did the right thing, bury all the stolen property here! Come on... I'm optimistic about you..."

With that, Cao Shuo stood up and carefully stuffed these land deeds into his arms... Pat the dirt on your body and slowly leave...

Before walking out of the gate of the pavilion, he didn't forget to look back at his brother Cao Ang, who was still working among the flowers, and muttered in his heart: "There is such a benevolent, filial and kind stupid brother, and I don't know... A blessing or a curse! ”

Thinking of this, I shook my head slightly... walked straight out of the compound of Caofu.
