I have always believed that there is knowledge everywhere in the world. Naturally, being a thief is also a profound and profound knowledge. If you do it today but not tomorrow, you are not very dedicated and cannot be called a competent thief.
Just like the thief who sent a letter to the Xu family, his letter stirred up a thousand waves. After the Xu family accepted the letter, they felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Every day, people fell on their backs, as if there was a cold sword hanging above their heads, but...
Recently, I finally raised 10,000 taels of gold. I thought that the big knife hanging above my head could finally come down. However, the thief made no move and stopped, making everyone in the Xu family uneasy all day long.
I privately speculated: Could it be that the thief regretted it and felt that it was more satisfying to let Mr. Xu worry underground? Or did the thief realize the truth and finally decided to put down his butcher knife and change his ways? Or did the thief run away...
Alas, no matter what, I don’t want to leave the suffering owner alone like this! Why don’t you come and tell me a message? You can just tell me in a dream!
On that day, Mrs. Xu and Young Master Xu had agreed to find the Asarum and worship it in front of Mr. Xu's soul for three days. They gave us the Asarum as a gift after showing their sincerity.
I thought, in this matter, since the Xu family is so well-informed and aware of the righteousness, it is always not good for us to just sit back and watch, and we have to do our part to find the bitter leaf asarum. Therefore,
Today, I invited three senior brothers to come to my room to discuss.
"People's hearts are separated from each other. If we worked so hard to find the bitter leaf asarum, but the Xu family regretted it and used a trick in those three days to transfer the asarum away, wouldn't our work have been in vain?
?" Ninth Senior Brother crossed his legs and said very shrewdly.
Well, I don’t think so, but the normally carefree Ninth Senior Brother has such a dark heart... It’s better to stay away from him in the future...
When the fifth senior brother heard this, he pondered for a long time and said, "I will then..."
Before the fifth senior brother could finish his words, senior brother Xiaobai took away the plain fan and said calmly: "When we help the Xu family get the bitter leaf asarum, we can find a dark night and steal it."
When Senior Brother Ninth heard what Senior Brother Xiaobai said, he agreed very much. The two of them forgot about their differences for a moment and hid aside and talked quietly.
The fifth senior brother heard what senior brother Xiaobai said and nodded deeply: "What Xiaojiuer and Xiaobai said is not unreasonable. It's better for us to prepare for a rainy day."
I do think it would be a disgrace to us to steal Bitter Leaf Asarum. If it spreads, not only will our family be in disrepute, but the reputation of Master and his master will also be tarnished.
However, if I think about it carefully, the worry of the Ninth Senior Brother has some truth... I thought that if we wait for the Asarum to be found, the four of us brothers and sisters will take turns to guard Mr. Xu's grave, so that the Xu family will not make a move.
Wouldn’t the opportunity be better?
but……
Alas, brothers, should we first discuss how to retrieve Asarum? Alas, after a long time, I went around in a big circle and finally got back to the topic.
We have been sitting back and waiting for seven or eight days now. If we continue to delay like this, I am afraid we will have to spend the whole year at Xu's house.
Although the Xu family treated us very well, and there is nothing wrong with celebrating the New Year here, but... I am a conscientious lady after all, and I always feel that if this is the case, we will be a little bit shameless...
So, I thought, now is the time to take the initiative.
