I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 236 Shameless

“Ouch, brother and sister-in-law, the things have been stolen a long time ago, how can we still find them. You guys, it’s better not to waste so much effort. Instead of wasting time, it’s better to think of more ways to buy some dowry for Sister Xin.”

Hearing what her sister-in-law said, Mrs. Jiang’s face turned ugly.

 She was really worried that those things were gone.

 After all, both the married couple spend money lavishly.

Lingchu saw Jiang's worry and couldn't help but comfort her, "Don't worry, everything is still there."

Jiang’s eyes lit up instantly.

Yao was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips disdainfully.

They thought to themselves that even if they guessed that those things were still there, they couldn't find them anyway.

With a cold, wrinkled face, Mother Cao glanced at Ling Chu up and down suspiciously.

Ling Chu ignored them, but took out the copper coins and turtle shells and pretended to make a fortune.

“Miss Ling, have you found it?” Mrs. Jiang couldn’t wait to ask.

Although Cao Hongxin said nothing, his eyes were full of hope.

Ling Chu nodded, put away the copper coins and turtle shells, and walked away.

When Mother Cao saw Ling Chu walking into the inner house without saying anything, she frowned and shouted angrily at her, "Do you know the rules? How can you, an outsider, just break in without the master's consent?" !”

Cao Hongxin was afraid that his mother would offend Ling Chu, "Mom, I invited Miss Ling. She can go wherever she wants."

Ling Chu ignored Mother Cao’s obstruction and walked quickly forward following the system’s guidance.

Ms. Jiang didn't want to pay attention to her mother-in-law, so she turned around and caught up with Ling Chu.

Although Yao didn't believe they could find anything, he hesitated for a while and followed them.

 Cao Hongxin gave his mother a few words of advice, then turned and left.

Seeing that everyone was gone, Cao's mother could only look dark, hold the maid's hand and follow them in a hurry.

Lingchu followed the system's guidance and didn't stop until he reached the west wing.

“Miss Ling, does the hexagram indicate that something is inside?” Mrs. Jiang looked at the locked door in front of her, with unbearable anger in her eyes.

Lingchu nodded, "That's right."

Yao family hurriedly followed, but he didn't expect that Ling Chu would go straight to the courtyard where their second room lived.

“Oh, brother, where did you invite this liar? How could Sister Xin’s things be in my yard? Isn’t this nonsense?”

Cao Hongxin scolded with a dark face, "Brother and sister, what are you talking about? Miss Ling is not a liar."

Ms. Jiang held back her anger and said, "Sister-in-law, please open the lock and see if the things are inside. You will know after you go in and take a look."

Yao didn't open the lock, but said to Cao's mother with an aggrieved look on her face, "Mom, sister-in-law means that our second room has stolen my niece's things. If this spreads out, how can my husband have the dignity to go out to meet people?"

Cao's mother always felt sorry for her youngest son, and her expression dropped when she heard this. "Xin'er, you are still the commander of the Five Cities Army and Horses Division, so you are so confused! How could the things stolen by the thief be in your second brother's possessions?" In the yard…”

 Seeing Cao's mother scolding her happily, Ling Chu didn't say anything and just took out a small hammer and hit the big lock lightly.

　　哐!

Before Mother Cao could finish her words, she was interrupted by the sound of metal hitting.

While they were still wondering, Ling Chu calmly took back the hammer, reached out and pushed the door, and then walked in.

Ms. Jiang immediately came to her senses and followed quickly.

Yao was so anxious that he jumped behind him.

He ran over in a few steps and wanted to stop him, but Ling Chu skillfully avoided him.

Amidst the commotion, a man wearing a straight bluestone suit walked out of the room sleepily. When he saw the people in the courtyard, he frowned dissatisfied, "What are you making a noise about? It's making people uncomfortable."

As soon as Mrs. Yao saw him, she immediately said in a weird manner, "Husband, don't you know? My eldest brother hired someone to find Sister Xin's betrothal gift, saying that it is in our yard."

When Cao Hongdeng heard his wife's words, his face was full of anger, "Brother, what do you mean, are you suspecting that I stole my niece's things?" Before Cao Hongxin could speak, Cao's mother took the first step and said, "What are you stealing? A family can't talk like this." He turned to his eldest son and said, "Xin'er, if you are looking for something, I won't stop you. It's just that the thing is not here with your second brother..."

Ling Chu couldn't bear to hear this and went straight to Yao's bedroom.

Yao became anxious immediately and rushed over to stop her. Cao Hongden was even more furious and rushed over quickly and reached out to grab Ling Chu's arm.

 Seeing her skin as white as snow, a colored light flashed in her eyes.

Ling Chu walked in without looking back, but summoned the big shovel and slapped it directly towards Cao Hongdeng's dirty hand.

After a cry of pain, Cao Hongden retracted his hand.

 The shovel did not pursue him any further, but he stopped the second wife and her husband.

When Mrs. Jiang saw Ling Chu entering the bedroom, she glanced coldly at Mr. and Mrs. Cao Hongdeng, then turned around and walked in.

"Mother..." Cao Hongdeng had no choice but to wink at Cao's mother.

 Cao’s mother immediately followed.

In the bedroom, Ling Chu was asking Cao Hongxin, "Master Cao, do you mind if I smash the wall?"

Aren’t you looking for a dowry gift? Why are you suddenly breaking down the wall?

Cao Hongxin was confused and couldn't figure out what Lingchu meant by what he said.

"What kind of wall did you smash? Can you afford to pay for it?" Mother Cao glared at Ling Chu fiercely and wanted to reach over and push her out.

Ms. Jiang had had enough of her mother-in-law's favoritism, and strode in front of Ling Chu, "Miss Ling, feel free to smash it. If it's damaged, I'll pay for it."

Ling Chu glanced at Cao Hongxin and saw that he had no objection.

With a wave of his hand, the small hammer immediately hit the wall next to the bed.

 After the loud noise, a large piece of the wall collapsed, revealing a black box.

Mother Cao was so angry that she tried to **** it away, but Ling Chu got it first.

 The box opened, and the golden light shone brightly.

Ms. Jiang recognized at a glance that this was the name given to her daughter's betrothal gift, "Mom, didn't you say that my second brother didn't steal Sister Xin's things? Then tell me, what is this?"

Mother Cao's eyes dodge for a moment, and then she shouted angrily with her hands on her hips, "What are you stealing? I gave it to my second son for safekeeping. If the married daughter throws water, Sister Xin will be a member of the Wu family when she gets married. I can't let you give all your property to the Wu family.

 This is something I specially reserved for Brother Zhuang. You cannot take it away. "

Ms. Jiang was so angry at her mother-in-law's nonsense. It was obviously her second wife who stole her daughter's things, but she still said it was for her son. It was really shameless.

boom!

Ling Chu ignored the quarrel between Cao's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, squatted in front of the canopy bed with a small hammer, and smashed the wooden board under the bed.

Mother Cao heard the noise and turned around to see this scene. She was so angry that she grabbed the tea cup next to her and tried to throw it at Ling Chu.

Cao Hongxin was startled and quickly stepped forward to stop her mother.

Cao Hongdeng and his wife outside heard the noise in the house and were extremely anxious, but they could not break free from the obstruction of the shovel.

Seeing that her mother-in-law was being stopped by her husband, Mrs. Jiang quickly called some maids and women to move Yao's bed away.

Lingchu smashed a large wooden box out from under the bed.

 The contents inside were the lost betrothal gifts.

Lingchu took out a small box from the big box and opened it. Inside were several crumpled usury notes.

   Ebrow pencil has been very popular recently. Today I was curious to check out the price and introduction.

Then I took a look at the pitiful royalties.

The result is-

I won’t say anything anymore, I’ll just try my best to code...
