Cao Hong was thinking about how to deal with Meng Yang, but he could not think of anything even after thinking for a long time.
He finally thought of something. Didn't Meng Yang say that his lord, Cao Cao, would encounter a romantic calamity on this trip?
If the lord had not encountered a romantic calamity this time, he would definitely come back to settle the score with Meng Yang. At that time, he would be able to beat the dog that was down!
Therefore, Cao Hong did not find trouble with Meng Yang for the time being.
……
Previously, when Meng Yang said that Cao Cao had encountered a romantic calamity, it had aroused strong doubts from everyone.
In addition, someone had died in Meng Yang's shop before, so there were no customers for the next few days.
Very few people came to him for fortune-telling, and there was not a single person who asked him to read Feng Shui or buy talismans.
Meng Yang now had the 10,000 taels of gold that the system had obtained from Cao Hong. He was not in a hurry to earn money. He spent every day researching various dishes.
As long as he could find ingredients in this era, Meng Yang would make new ones!
He cooked so many cuisines purely to satisfy his appetite. He had never thought of opening a restaurant!
Other than cooking, Meng Yang was also practicing the various Daoist techniques and talismans taught by his master, Mr. Crow Horn!
After dozens of days of cultivation, Meng Yang had reached the fourth stage of the Qi Cultivation Stage!
Meng Yang also learned how to draw some complicated talismans!
One of the most effective talismans was an anti-theft talisman. If he drew a talisman and pasted it on the door, the thief would not be able to slip in!
Meng Yang himself was happy to be idle. He did not want to be disturbed by a thief!
……
On this day, Cao Hong remembered that Bian Yu-er had given Meng Yang 100 taels of gold. This made Cao Hong, who had recently lost a lot, greedy!
If he recruited a hanger-on, he wouldn't know any other skills and would only know how to break in and steal.
Cao Hong had sent that hanger-on to Meng Yang's shop at night to steal the 100 taels of gold!
In the end, when the hanger-on arrived at Meng Yang's shop, he could not pry open the door no matter what he did!
The hanger-on had no choice but to climb the wall. However, he realized that the wall was slippery and could not be climbed no matter what!
They tried all kinds of methods, including going through the dog hole, but they were all unsuccessful. They just couldn't get in.
That hanger-on could only return to report to Cao Hong.
Cao Hong was shocked." This kid is a little strange…Then we won't provoke him for the time being. We'll wait for the lord to come back and punish him!"”
……
In the Cao residence, Cao Cao's wife, Madam Ding, looked at Bian Yu-er with disdain."
"I heard that you spent 100 gold taels on a piece of paper. What's the use of that piece of paper? I think you've been deceived by that little fraud!”
Because Bian Yu-er was more favored by Cao Cao and was more shrewd and simple than Madam Ding, Cao Cao let Bian Yu-er manage the finances of the rear residence.
Madam Ding was very jealous of Bian Yu-er and was always picky.
In the past, Bian Yu-er had always swallowed her anger and valued peace.
However, this time, Bian Yuer's gaze was firm as she said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner,"
"Sister, please don't say that. Xiao Xian is not a fraud. He is a very capable person.
I advise elder sister to ask for an amulet for Cao Ang, just in case!”
Madam Ding pursed her lips and said disdainfully,"My Ang 'er has already grown up and is skilled in both martial arts and literature. What can happen?
There's no need to ask for a piece of paper from a fraud. I won't give a scammer a chance!”
Bian Yu-er sighed. Because she trusted Meng Yang very much, she believed what Meng Yang said. Her husband, Cao Cao, would definitely lose a son. Since her own son, Cao Pi, had a protective amulet and was safe and sound, the one who would lose would definitely be Cao Ang. Unfortunately, Madam Ding did not believe it at all!
……
Two months later, Cao Cao's army returned from Wan City.
Unlike the high-spirited and smug attitude he had before he set off, Cao Cao was dejected this time. He did not dare to meet his elders, especially his wife, Lady Ding.
Because the eldest son that Madam Ding had raised, Cao Ang, had died!
Lady Ding was like the others, waiting outside the city to welcome the triumphant return of Cao Cao's army.
Madam Ding wanted to mock Bian Yu-er, saying that it was useless for her to spend a hundred gold taels to beg for that piece of paper.
However, Madam Ding's heart skipped a beat when she saw Cao Cao's dejected expression.
Madam Ding then saw that Cao Cao only had Cao Pi by his side. His eldest son, Cao Ang, was not around. His nephew, Cao Anmin, was not around either. Even the Vanishing Shadow Horse that he was riding was not around!
At that time, Madam Ding's expression was extremely ugly, and she felt that something was wrong.
However, Madam Ding still thought that perhaps Cao Ang was behind them, or perhaps Cao Ang was just injured!
Cao Cao rode his horse to Madam Ding and rolled down. He hugged Madam Ding and choked,"Madam, I'm sorry. I didn't protect Ang 'er well!”
Madam Ding fainted at that moment!
