Dominate the mountain stronghold.

The big boss had just had an argument with other bosses a few days ago, and they almost got into a fight. It was the third boss who came to mediate. After the big boss calmed down, he gradually sensed something was wrong.

Xiongba Stronghold was built on a steep mountain road, and there were many bandits patrolling and guarding the mountain. Even if the thieves had escaped the two guards of the warehouse, so much gold and jewelry would definitely attract the attention of the patrolling guards.

But according to the patrol guards, last night was just like any other night and there was nothing unusual.

The boss wondered what kind of thief could take away half of the warehouse without anyone noticing?

Unless it's a ghost.

And if the second brother really moved it away secretly, it doesn't make sense that he only moved half of the inventory.

You should know that Xiongba Stronghold has a total of six warehouses. These were all the money they robbed from the rich families passing by during the three years of severe drought in the north. There were gold, silver, jewelry and everything else, which filled the six warehouses to the brim.

If the second brother really had second thoughts, he would have killed himself first and taken the position of the boss. Wouldn't that mean he had six vaults? Why bother moving half of the inventory?

Isn’t this a disguised way of saying that the second brother has ulterior motives?

The big boss was drinking with the newly captured wife of the cottage in a depressed mood, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.

At this moment, someone rushed in from outside the door, and the two people who ran in looked panicked.

"What happened to you all in such a hurry?" The big boss looked at his two subordinates with displeasure, his eyes blurred with drunkenness.

The dog's head was covered in cold sweat, his lips trembling, and he stammered, "...Big...Big...Big Boss, Ku...Ku...Warehouse."

"Yes... yes... warehouse, boss, please go and have a look." Hu Zi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and spoke stutteringly, not daring to look the boss in the eye.

When the boss heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he stood up, holding onto the table. "Is there something missing from the warehouse again?"

"No...no...is..." Gou Zi stuttered, looking at the ground and not daring to look up at the boss.

Hu Zi glanced at Gou Zi with a look of disappointment. "Yes... yes, another warehouse of gold and jewelry is missing. Everything in the two warehouses was stolen clean, not even a speck of dust is left."

The boss was just about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard something shocking. His eyes went dark and he fainted.

"Hey, boss, wake up quickly, don't scare me."

Madam Jiao screamed and hurriedly supported the boss, but there was no trace of worry on her face.

Gou Zi and Hu Zi quickly took a bucket of cold water and poured it on the boss's face, looking at him with a timid expression.

What should I do? I just poured water on the boss. Will the boss throw them into the mountains to feed the wild beasts?

However, as soon as the eldest master woke up, he wiped the water stains off his face and cried out, "My gold and jewelry!"

Having said that, he broke free from Madam Jiao's hand and ran out of the room.

Madam Jiao sneered and looked at the boss with cold eyes full of hatred. She grabbed the handkerchief tightly with her hand. It was unknown what she was thinking about as her expression gradually became ferocious.

The boss ran to the warehouse door and saw the empty warehouse. An expression of anger broke out on his face.

"Who is it?"

"Who was that bastard who stole my vault?"

The boss was roaring in the empty warehouse, his face was red and his neck was thick, with bulging veins on his neck. Combined with his face full of fat and beard, he looked particularly terrifying and ferocious.

Gou Zi and Hu Zi were so scared that they knelt on the ground and trembled.

"Search the whole mountain! I don't believe that thief can get away with so much gold and jewelry!" The boss roared.

The sound shook the entire mountain.

The weasel that was stalking from a distance saw this scene, rolled its eyes, turned around and jumped down the tree to inform the enemy.

.....

Pear Blossom Village.

When Shen Chulai came back in the evening, he brought back two roast chickens and braised pig's trotters with soybeans, as well as pear blossom wine given by the owner of Qingshuilou.

Chu Xiaoyi said that he was grateful to the Yuan family because some time ago the Yuan family picked peaches from the mountains and sold them to Qingshui Tower.

When the diners heard the news, they auctioned off all eleven peaches. Chu Xiao also made a lot of money and his belt was bulging.

There was a carriage behind Shen Chulan. I heard that Chu Xiaoyi asked Manager Lin to deliver peaches to the Lu Mansion.

When the family sits at the table to eat dinner, it is especially sumptuous, with all kinds of fried, stir-fried, braised and deep-fried dishes.

Today the masons have dug the cellar and built the kang. There is plenty of food at home, so the whole family doesn’t have to worry about food this winter.

The family looked at every piece of soil and tile in their home, feeling both sad and grateful.

The bittersweet thing was that when we were in Chongguang County, our family didn’t have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear. We were also hunted by the invading barbarians from the border and had to leave the place where our ancestors had lived for generations.

Fortunately, Yaoyao was at home, and it was thanks to Xiaohei and Yaoyao's help that I was able to escape to Lihua Village.

Especially Yaoyao, she gave her family the confidence to escape without any worries.

Everyone looked at Yaoyao, who was staring at the food on the table with her big black eyes wide open. A string of saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she looked up at them in confusion, revealing a sweet smile, and dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth, looking cute and adorable.

The chubby little man stretched out his chubby little paws, quickly grabbed a piece of meat from Shen Chulan's bowl and stuffed it into his mouth.

"ah!"

Everyone exclaimed.

Yuan Laoer reacted quickly and grabbed Yaoyao's hand and dug out the half-eaten meat in her mouth.

"Ahhhh! Appa!"

I want to eat, I want to eat! Bad guy!

Yaoyao, who was pouting, frowned, pouted, and glared at Yuan Laoer with a fierce look. She turned her head away, leaving a furry head in front of everyone.

Yaoyao, hiding in Shen Chulan's arms, smacked her lips twice. The taste of meat in her mouth instantly made her squint her eyes in satisfaction.

Woohoo, this is the taste of meat~

As a result, the more he licked his lips, the more saliva appeared in his mouth, and strings of crystal clear saliva flowed down the corners of his mouth.

"Oh my God, it's a good thing I reacted quickly, otherwise it would have been terrible if Yaoyao had eaten that big piece of meat." Yuan Laoer patted his pounding heart.

Ye Wan was terrified. "Yaoyao's hands were so quick! She grabbed the meat from the bowl and stuffed it into her mouth before I could react."

It's only two months old. How can a child of this age have such fast hand speed? He can even accurately grab the meat in the bowl and put it into his mouth.

But when I think about all the magical things Yaoyao has done, this is really nothing.

"You have to be more careful when eating next time. Yaoyao is different from other children. She pays more attention."

Old Mrs. Liu was also frightened just now, but Yaoyao was always with her, and she knew what Yaoyao was thinking as soon as she raised her butt.
