Chapter 96
After walking through the wing room, Liu Qingcao breathed a sigh of relief.

The Jiang family is so late, and there are still many family servants guarding it, which is really too proud.

Close to the main courtyard, Liu Qingcao heard the scolding sound from inside. The voice Liu Qingcao sounded very familiar to her, but she couldn't think of who it sounded like for a while.

The corners of Liu Qingcao's lips curled slightly, the more chaotic the main courtyard of the Jiang family, the easier it would be for her to sneak in.

Liu Qingcao dodged from the arch to the main room.

A place for storing valuables in ancient times, a study room, a bedroom, or a separate warehouse.

But this is inseparable from one point, that is the permanent residence of the owner of money.

Liu Qingcao decided that if she couldn't find a place after searching, then she would hide in the space tonight to see if she could meet the head of the Jiang family and enter his small treasury.

Liu Qingcao lingered around the study room, looking at the two servants guarding the yard, she became angry when she didn't move.

This big family is really not that easy to get into. It's really not easy to be a thief.

Liu Qingcao waited for another quarter of an hour. Seeing that the two of them still hadn't moved a little bit, she picked up a few pebbles from the flower garden, saw the right moment, and hit them in two directions, left and right.

With a sound of "咻", the stone flew out and fell into the flowers not far from the two of them. Hearing the sound, the two servants ran to check in a panic.

Liu Qingcao took advantage of the situation and moved to the corner of the study room, and quickly hid in the space.

The two servants ran to the place where the noise came from, checked carefully, found nothing, turned around and returned to their original positions.

"Why didn't you get dizzy just now? I saw the vegetation over there move." The tall and thin servant frowned, looking at the place where the noise occurred.

The fat servant smiled, patted the tall and thin man on the shoulder, and said.

"No dizziness, maybe there are cats and dogs, don't think too much, why don't you stay here, who dares to come here and wander around."

"Let's be more careful. The master said, except for him, no one else is allowed to enter here. We can't be careless. If something happens, we can't afford it and walk away."

The tall and thin servant snorted coldly, and looked at the fat servant in front of him and reminded him angrily.

The fat servant Ding was scolded for a while, his face darkened, and after glaring at him angrily, he stopped talking.

Liu Qingcao listened to both of them in the space.

It seems that this study is indeed an important place, but it is not easy to enter.

Liu Qingcao waited in the space for half an hour, but didn't see the two leave, and didn't even visit the hut.

"It's true that you are dedicated to your duty!" Liu Qingcao gritted her teeth and said in an unhappy tone.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, Liu Qingcao became a little impatient in the space. She couldn't even get in the study door if she waited like this. When the head of the Jiang family came in, she would have no chance to get in...

No, you have to find a way.

Liu Qingcao got up from the ground, ran to the warehouse and rummaged up and down, finally shook her head helplessly, and left the warehouse.

She originally wanted to find some drugs to stun the two of them, and then sneaked into the study, but the original owner of the warehouse didn't like this thing and didn't store it at all.

The other medicines were either poisonous or precious pills. If they were used up, it would be death or a waste. The amount was not much, so she was reluctant to use it on these two people.

Unable to find the drug, Liu Qingcao pulled out a candle, raised her eyebrows and looked outside.

Although setting fire is not good, but now, apart from this method, she really can't think of anything else.

Liu Qingcao fumbled and held the candle, slowly moved from the corner to the back of the study, found a conspicuous place, and rubbed the candle oil on the wooden beam.

When the wax oil was rubbed on a large piece, Liu Qingcao ran into the space, lit the candle, came out quickly, took out a few pieces of paper and lit it next to the wooden beam.

As soon as the paper was lit, Liu Qingcao walked briskly and hid in the corner of the study.

The two servants in front heard the commotion here, and ran over quickly. Just as Liu Qingcao was secretly delighted, the tall and thin servant suddenly stopped.

"Go and have a look, I'm here to guard."

Displeasure flashed across the fat servant's face, but he still ran forward.

When he ran to the corner, he saw the wooden beams and pillars in front of him glowing with flames, so he hurriedly shouted.

"It's almost time to lift the water, it's a fire!"

When the tall and thin man heard that the water was running, he didn't care so much, so he hurried away to find water to put out the fire.

This place is a study, once the water leaks, the consequences will be unimaginable, so he has to extinguish it quickly.

Seeing that the time had come, Liu Qingcao quickly stepped out of the space and slipped into the study as fast as she could.

The moment she gently closed the study door, Liu Qingcao had a smile on her face.

Sure enough, setting fire is the most effective way.

The fire won't last long. She didn't intend to actually burn down the Jiang family, so the fire will be discovered soon and brought under control.

She had to use this gap to rummage through this place, and then wait for the head of the Jiang family to show up. If there was no result tonight, she would put everything here into the space. Anyway, she couldn't empty-handed.

Who has ever seen a "thief" enter the door and leave empty-handed?
This study is not small, about 1.2 square meters. There is a sandalwood table in the middle, and a small bed with a width of [-] meters is placed behind it. There are partition walls on both sides of the bed, and some porcelain green plants are placed on it.

On the other three walls, there are three large bookshelves with many books on them.

Liu Qingcao looked around here, walked to the desk, and began to rummage lightly. There were five drawers on the desk, and the one in the bottom left corner was locked. Liu Qingcao paid special attention to it.

After looking through the four drawers, Liu Qingcao found nothing valuable.

The last drawer was locked, and if you tried to open it, there would be a sound. In the end, Liu Qingcao rolled her eyes and put the entire desk into the space.

In the space, Liu Qingcao picked up the hoe, looked at the position, and smashed it towards the lock.

The lock fell off, and Liu Qingcao quickly threw away the hoe and ran over.

As soon as I opened the drawer, I saw the things inside.

A jade seal, and an antique exquisite red sandalwood box.

Liu Qingcao held it in his hand and looked at it. The workmanship was fine, the design was picturesque, and it was a box of excellent quality.

"I don't know if the things inside are also valuables."

Liu Qingcao curiously opened the top cover of the box.

Inside were bank notes of 1000 taels, Liu Qingcao took them in her hand and quickly counted them, there were five in total.

The 5000 taels of silver bills might not be that much even if the total sum of the several villages in Qianfeng Town was added up.

This Jiang family is not ordinary rich!

Liu Qingcao looked at the banknote in her hand and smiled slightly, she accepted the money without hesitation.

"Well, there's more?" Liu Qingcao looked at the bottom layer, and there was actually a letter under the banknote.

Liu Qingcao picked up the letter, opened it, and looked at it. It was a sorted letter, including the money inside, which was also for the owner of the letter, but there was no signature written on it, and Liu Qingcao didn't know what it was. For whom.

Who will such a large sum of money be given to?People from Qianfeng Town are unlikely, they can only be people from outside the town.

Liu Qingcao stared at the envelope for a while, then shook her head, scolding herself for meddling in her own business, it is now hers for everyone.

After searching the desk quickly, Liu Qingcao moved it out of the space and hung the broken lock on it.
