Siheyuan: Lou Xiao'e, Yu Li and the Savage Woman

Chapter 20 Late Night Treasure Hunt

Lou Xiao'e, who was washing herself in the house, suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Who is it?"

She dressed hastily.

"Hello, I'm the new resident next door."

Cao Haotian outside the door introduced himself.

"What's going on late at night?"

Lou Xiao'e opened the door.

"It's like this, my boss gave me a plate of fried peanuts, so I wanted to come and have a drink with Brother Damao."

Cao Haotian lied.

Because before knocking on the door, he had already used his mind to observe that Xu Damao was not at home.

And I also saw that Lou Xiao'e was sitting in the big iron basin where she was washing clothes...

"Xu Damao is not at home. Come and see him during the day!"

Lou Xiao'e was about to close the door.

We met in the backyard in the morning, and he took the initiative to shake hands. Now he came knocking on the door late at night.

She felt that there was something a little abnormal about the new resident.

It seemed that he wanted to get close to her intentionally or unintentionally.

"Sister Lou, do you have any liquor at home? Can you lend me some?"

Lou Xiao'e is 21 years old this year, so it is not excessive for Cao Haotian to call her sister.

Lou Xiao'e frowned.

I just moved in and I'm here to borrow things.

And you're here to borrow some wine?

This made her feel a little disgusted.

However, she did not refuse.

"Wait outside the door for a moment, I'll get it for you."

Lou Xiao'e closed the door and went back to her room.

When he returned again, he had half a bottle of white wine in his hand.

"Here's half a catty, take it back and drink it!"

Cao Haotian thanked him.

He took the half bottle of liquor back home.

Lying on the bed and looking at the half bottle of white wine, he felt that Lou Xiao'e was very kind and a virtuous woman.

I will never do anything to let my husband down easily.

But this kind of woman often has a fatal weakness.

That is, when you are at your most vulnerable and helpless, there is a high probability that you will do something that you would never have dared to think of before...

Lying on the bed, Cao Haotian suddenly remembered something.

He had moved into the courtyard house for almost a day, and had not encountered anyone coming to steal his house, nor anyone coming to cause trouble.

It seems a bit too abnormal.

This is totally not in line with the style of beasts!

I fell asleep while thinking about it...

After drinking, Xu Damao returned home.

"Ezi, have you gone clothes shopping today?"

Lou Xiao'e, who was making her bed, replied:

“I didn’t buy any clothes, but I accompanied the deaf old lady to buy a Zhongshan suit, and she said she was buying it for a relative.

I saw that the old man didn’t have much money, so I helped pay for him.”

Xu Damao asked again: "Is it a sky blue Zhongshan suit?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded.

But she was a little confused.

"Didn't you come back in the evening? How did you know about this?"

"I heard it from the third uncle in the front yard." Xu Damao was very angry.

The new clothes bought by his wife were actually worn by Shazhu.

He felt very uncomfortable.

But he is no match for Sha Zhu.

At this moment, Xu Damao felt even more that he must divorce Lou Xiao'e and then report Lou Bancheng.

Only by becoming the deputy section chief of the publicity department of the steel rolling mill will he be able to deal with Sha Zhu.

If you do something behind my back, don't blame me.

"It's so late, why aren't you sleeping yet?"

Lying on the bed, Lou Xiao'e looked at Xu Damao.

"Go to sleep first. I have to write something."

Xu Damao found a pen and paper and began to write the written materials for reporting his father-in-law Lou Bancheng tomorrow...

…………

Late at night, Cao Haotian locked the door and quietly left the courtyard.

There are more than ten alleys in the entire Nanluoguxiang area.

In this area, there are many courtyards where dignitaries once lived.

For example, there was a prince named Senggelinqin, whose former residence was located in this area.

Cao Haotian walked quietly in the alley, and then used his mind to observe any movement within 100 meters of him.

On a dark and windy night, it is the best time to hunt for treasure.

In an abandoned courtyard, he discovered a small secret room.

There were two boxes of gold inside, weighing more than 200 kilograms.

We wandered around the area for nearly two hours, exploring all the uninhabited and abandoned houses.

Cao Haotian also found more than 1000 silver dollars, three landscape paintings by Qi Baishi, and a painting of dead branches by Su Shi.

He could still recognize some of Qi Baishi's paintings, which were mostly landscapes, and were painted quite well.

But Cao Haotian could not understand what Su Shi painted at all.

A strangely shaped stone paired with a withered branch.

There is absolutely no artistic atmosphere.

However, there were many seals on the scroll, so he thought it should be very valuable...

Taking advantage of the night, Cao Haotian returned to Xiaojia Village again.

After clearing up the mess and completing the third task, the door to reincarnation will open.

He will step into the gate of reincarnation and return to the 21st century, and then he will have no time to repay his gratitude.

So while we have time now, we must take good care of Guan Jun.

Using the Wind-Chasing Step, he arrived at the door of his home in about ten minutes.

Take out all the 300 kilograms of rice, 300 kilograms of flour, and 300 kilograms of corn flour in the space.

Then, he took out another 20 gold bars.

He knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" Guan Jun was sleeping soundly in the room.

"it's me."

Guan Jun quickly got up, lit the kerosene lamp and opened the door.

"Brother Haotian, what's in this bag?"

Guan Jun pointed to the nine snakeskin bags piled by the door.

"It's all food. Commander Zhou arranged for a vehicle to deliver it."

Cao Haotian picked up a bag of rice and walked into the house.

"Brother Haotian, where did you get so much food?"

Guan Jun was very surprised.

In this special era, nine large bags of grain were brought back at once.

This only happened in dreams.

At the same time, he was also very confused.

I just went to the city to work for a day, and I managed to bring back so much food.

He felt that Cao Haotian was truly omnipotent and was like a completely different person compared to before.

"These are all sent by Commander Zhou. Don't tell anyone, including your family."

"Take half of this food home first, and come back for more when you've finished eating."

"Also, keep these 20 gold bars."

"Bury them, don't spend them now, and dig them out later when you get into trouble."

Cao Haotian handed over a small cloth bag containing 20 gold bars.

Guan Jun was so frightened that he was stunned.

This is gold!

And it was exactly 20 gold bars.

He had never touched so much gold in his life.

"Brother Haotian, did you do anything illegal?"

Guan Jun asked cautiously.

How is it possible to make so much money without doing anything illegal?

Cao Haotian answered casually:

"Don't worry, the food and gold bars were definitely not stolen or robbed."

"I have to rush back to the county town later, just do as I say."

"You must not tell anyone about the gold and food. You must keep them safe."

"After more than ten years, when life starts to get better, you can use this gold to buy a house in the city."

"As long as you have a house in the city, your descendants won't have to worry about their future..."
