Cao Hongxin didn't want to talk about his family's affairs, after all, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized.

But the emperor always wanted Xuanyi Zhenren to be the national teacher, but he was refused.

Everyone in the world knows that those who have the ability to be tall and tall are not small-tempered.

He was worried that if he had something to hide, if Ling Chu was dissatisfied and rejected him, then he really didn't know what to do.

Because of his daughter's dowry, his wife was so angry that she almost wanted to break with him.

Cao Hongxin hoped that Ling Chu could help him solve this matter, and did not hide it.

The Cao family has two sons, Cao Hongxin is the eldest son, and he also has a younger brother.

Cao Hongxin has been sensible since he was a child, and he knows how to study diligently and work hard at a young age.

But his second brother Cao Hongdeng is just the opposite of him, he has been doted on by his mother since he was a child, and he can't do martial arts, and he is idle when he grows up.

Although the Cao family is not rich and expensive, it is more than enough to be less than the top, but it is a pity that the little family property cannot withstand Cao Hongdeng's big hands.

After the two brothers of the Cao family became a family and gave birth to their own children, those days were even worse day by day.

Although Cao Hongxin is the commander of the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses, he is only the sixth grade, and there are not many of them. Cao Hongdeng can't study, and he doesn't want to go on a career in office. In order not to sit and eat empty, the family asked him to do a small business.

But Cao Hongdeng has been lazy since he was a child, and after he got married, he did business for three days and two days to dry his nets, and the little money he earned was not enough for him to spend on himself.

Cao's father and Cao's mother doted on their youngest son, and when they saw that he was not doing well, they often asked Cao Hongxin and his wife to subsidize the second room. Although the husband and wife were dissatisfied, they couldn't stand Cao's mother's crying.

A few days ago, Cao Hongxin's eldest daughter got married, and the husband and wife didn't want to wronged their daughter, in addition to the dowry prepared for her, they also planned to give her all the dowry given by the man as a dowry.

Originally, those things were placed in the warehouse, but a few days ago, Cao Hongxin's wife found that most of those things were gone, and a small part was replaced.

Cao Hongxin and his wife originally thought that there were thieves in the house, but what made them feel strange was that except for these things that they were preparing for their daughter to marry, everything else was fine and nothing was lost.

They originally wanted to report to the official, but Cao's father, Cao's mother, and Cao Hongdeng's husband and wife all strongly objected, saying that the family was ugly and should not be publicized.

And everyone advised Cao Hongxin and his wife to settle down, so as not to affect their daughter's marriage.

Cao Hongxin and his wife thought about it, although they did not report to the official, but secretly launched an investigation.

It's just that what they didn't expect was that after finally checking it out, they found that Cao Hongdeng and his wife were very suspicious.

Cao Hongxin's wife, Jiang, even found that the golden hairpin on her head was exactly the same as the golden hairpin in her daughter's dowry.

The angry Jiang went to the concubine to ask for an explanation, but the husband and wife in the second room did not admit that they had stolen their niece's things.

Jiang was even scolded by her mother-in-law.

After Cao Hongxin learned about it, he went to his second brother to get his daughter's things back.

However, Cao Hongdeng was protected by Cao's father and Cao's mother, and the result can be imagined, Cao Hongxin and Jiang returned in vain.

Although Cao Hongxin was angry and angry, he couldn't beat people because of his family.

Knowing that he couldn't get it, he originally thought that as long as he secretly found things and got them back, the matter would be over.

Unexpectedly, he tried his best to find where his daughter's dowry was hidden.

If the things don't come back, the daughter cries all day long and wipes her tears, and his wife even wants to make peace with him.

Cao Hongxin has been miserable recently, and he really has no choice, so he is so eager to find Ling Chu for help.

After hearing this, Ling Chu was really speechless.

It turned out that it was a thief who stole things, no wonder this Cao commander did not report to the official.

"Let's go, let's go to your house first."

Cao Hongxin saw that she did not refuse, and was instantly overjoyed.

Took Ling Chu straight back to the house.

Cao Hongxin's wife was very happy to see Ling Chu, and was full of expectations that she could find her daughter's dowry.

But Cao's father and Cao's mother, as well as the husband and wife in the second room, looked unhappy.

Cao's mother shouted angrily to her eldest son with a calm face, "Xin'er, how can you let outsiders know about the affairs of the family!" If this matter spreads, aren't you afraid of the twists and turns in Sister Xin'er's marriage? ”

Jiang had long been dissatisfied with his mother-in-law's behavior of protecting the second room, and when he heard her words, he didn't speak with a calm face.

Cao Hongxin knew that his wife was angry, but in fact, he was not satisfied with his father's partiality.

"Mother, if you can't find the dowry, how can you let Sister Xin get married?"

Cao's mother frowned, "Why can't you get married, aren't there still some of those things left?" It's not enough, there are still some porcelain and cloth in the warehouse, and the two of you husband and wife can make up enough for twenty-eight to come out of the private room. ”

Cao Hongdeng's wife Yao also said, "Big brother and sister-in-law, we are not those noble and rich families, and the dowry cannot be compared with others, and you don't need to spend all your money to marry Sister Xin'er." Don't forget that you have a son, so you have to leave something for him. ”

Jiang was so angry by the words of his mother-in-law and concubine that his liver hurt.

Cao Hongxin was also angry, "Mother, those porcelain and cloth in the warehouse are old and old, how can you be a dowry for Sister Xin'er......"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Cao's mother disapprehantly, "Why can't you be a dowry, although those things are a little old, they are not broken or broken, they are all good things." ”

Jiang sneered, what a good thing, it's just a thing that can be seen everywhere on the street.

Cao Hongxin looked helpless, "Mother, the dowry given by the Wu family has a dowry list." You asked Sister Xin to marry with those things in the warehouse, if the Wu family knew, how could you let Sister Xin hold her head up in the Wu family? ”

As soon as Cao Hongxin's words fell, his mother and the Yao family said almost in unison, "You let Sister Xin cover it carefully, don't let the Wu family know about it." ”

How can this kind of thing be covered up, Jiang's temperament towards her mother-in-law and concubine has long been clear, and she knows that she can't make sense with them no matter what.

only glared at her husband angrily, if she hadn't cared about his face, she would have reported to the police a long time ago.

Cao Hongxin was angry and helpless, "mother......"

After listening to this for a while, Ling Chu already had a general understanding of Cao's mother and Yao's personalities, and even if Cao Hongxin quarreled with them for another three days and three nights, he would not be able to achieve any results.

She really couldn't help but interrupt him, "Lord Cao, but you still want to find something?" ”

Cao Hongxin hadn't spoken yet, but Cao Mu glared at Ling Chu coldly, and said with a calm face, "What are you looking for, the things have already been stolen by thieves, where can I find them." ”

Jiang didn't speak, just glared at Cao Hongxin coldly.

Cao Hongxin smiled bitterly in his heart, he knew that if he couldn't find his daughter's dowry, his wife would definitely reconcile with him.

Despite his filial piety, he did not want to be a foolish man. If he blindly takes care of everyone, then his small family will definitely be separated.

"Miss Ling, you have to find out something......
