"Family Head, what are you saying! We treat all young people equally!"
"Right!"
They quickly spoke up, sowhat embarrassed from having been exposed...
Honestly, they were really only concerned about Cao Ya because he had a good relationship with them.
As for the other young people, they didn’t really care, because there were many such young people in the family.
Hearing their embarrassed explanations, Cao Ying coldly replied, "Alright, no need to tell these useless things, we’ve known each other not just for a day or two, who doesn’t know who!"
Completely exposed, they glanced at each other awkwardly and stopped talking, effectively admitting it...
Taking another look at them, Cao Ying said indifferently, "Actually, you misunderstood my previous aning, I didn’t say not to save them, but we can’t use such a violent thod. We can use a relatively gentle thod."
"A relatively gentle thod? What is it?"
Looking at their puzzled faces, Cao Ying directly revealed his idea, "Pretend to be weak, and then dig a pit for Hu Xiaobei."
"Dig a pit? What kind of pit?"
They looked at each other, confused.
They felt they couldn’t keep up with Cao Ying’s thinking.
Earlier, they could still understand what he was saying, but now, they really couldn’t grasp it.
Because right now, he was truly speaking gibberish to them.
Seeing their bewildered expressions, Cao Ying frowned.
He realized their minds were really not as sharp as before.
Previously, when he hinted like this, they definitely understood his aning...
But now, they were just staring at him like idiots...
"What I an by digging a pit is to let him unknowingly fall into our trap."
"How to do it then?"
"Yes!"
Looking at them indifferently, Cao Ying spoke softly, "Earlier, we always wanted to visit our Cao Family’s ancestral ho, right."
"Yes!"
They nodded solemnly!
Previously, due to unknown deaths and endless horror, they fled from the ancestral ho.
After escaping, they directly disbanded, turning into many small groups.
Naturally, they no longer had their initial strength...
This left them very helpless...
Over the years, many wanted to return to the ancestral ho, especially many elderly people, who had an almost insane obsession.
Returning to one’s roots!
They hoped to return to the ancestral ho in their lifeti and then be buried there...
But this was truly difficult!
Because the ancestral ho was filled with all kinds of unknown dangers.
Many tried, and all died miserably...
...
Seeing them nod, Cao Ying continued indifferently, "Earlier, we’ve been planning how to return to our native land but never had one hundred percent confidence in ensuring success. This ti, we can let Hu Xiaobei lead the way."
"Family Head, you an to use Hu Xiaobei as a guinea pig?"
They thought about it carefully, excitedly looking at Cao Ying...
They had to admit, Cao Ying’s proposal was particularly good.
Although they had drafted a very detailed plan before, honestly, no one could guarantee one hundred percent success.
So no one really dared to try...
Now, if they could use Hu Xiaobei as a guinea pig, it would be perfect.
"He has good strength, so he is qualified to be our guinea pig."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
After nodding excitedly, they suddenly thought of a problem.
"Family Head, how do we make Hu Xiaobei willingly beco a guinea pig?"
"Exactly! He shouldn’t have anything wrong upstairs, so getting him to really work for us would be tough."
They were very excited earlier.
But after thinking about it carefully, they weren’t so excited.
Because they felt this matter wouldn’t be too easy to accomplish.
Cao Ying looked at them, stating indifferently, "This matter is indeed not easy, but it’s not so difficult either. As long as we think a little bit, we can definitely co up with a good solution."
"Family Head, do you already have an idea?"
"Yeah, yeah!"
Upon hearing Cao Ying’s carefree tone, they excitedly squinted their eyes.
Cao Ying smiled faintly and said, "Regarding this, I do have a bit of an idea, but to reach that point, we must first bow down, endure grievances."
"What do you an?"
"First, we apologize to him, then invite him to explore our ancestral ho together. I’m sure he’ll be interested! Once he agrees, we can do as we please!"
"That’s a good idea!"
They exchanged glances, feeling the idea was really good!
But they still had so concerns.
"What if he’s not interested in our invitation?"
"Exactly!"
"If he’s really not interested, then we’ll have to forcefully push forward!"
"Family Head, so you’re planning to use diplomacy before force!"
They looked at Cao Ying with newfound understanding.
Seeing they understood his plan, Cao Ying smiled faintly, "Yes, but I think he should agree, after all, there are countless treasures in the ancestral ho!"
"That’s true!"
Seeing them nodding, Cao Ying continued discussing various small details with them.
Although the general plan was set, there were still many details that needed to be carefully discussed.
They knew this plan absolutely couldn’t fail.
Because if it failed, there really wouldn’t be a next ti...
After all, once it failed, Hu Xiaobei would beco extrely vigilant, making it truly impossible to deceive him a second ti...
...
At this mont, Cao Wei was nervously pacing back and forth in his room!
"I wonder how much of the lie I fabricated earlier the Family Head and others believe!"
He was a bit anxious...
He knew Cao Ying wasn’t soone easy to fool, so he worried about being exposed...
"But even if the Family Head exposes , at this ti, he shouldn’t really do anything to ! After all, it’s a ti for us to unite!"
Thinking about this, his original anxiety eased slightly...
Soon, he heard footsteps...
"Who is it?"
Thinking this, he heard a hoarse voice coming from outside, "Cao Wei, are you there?"
"I’m here!"
When speaking, feeling a bit anxious, Cao Wei swiftly opened the door.
At this ti, he saw a middle-aged man smiling at him.
"Housekeeper Cao!"
He knew this person, an elder by Cao Ying’s side.
Cao Ying valued him greatly, Cao Wei dared not offend him.
"Have you rested well? The Family Head wants you to co over."
Hearing such polite words, Cao Wei smiled, "Okay, I know! Thank you, Housekeeper Cao!"
"You’re welco!"
Upon hearing this, Cao Wei suddenly thought of sothing.
In an instant, Cao Wei quickly returned to his room, and soon he ran out again...
"Housekeeper Cao, I heard you like porcelain very much. I found this recently outside and don’t know if it’s sothing good!"
While speaking, Cao Wei handed over a deep purple vase...
Housekeeper Cao took a few looks at the vase and suddenly his eyes beca focused.
Seeing this scene, Cao Wei happily smiled...
This porcelain vase was acquired by Cao Wei earlier at great expense.
He bought it with the purpose of coping with unexpected situations like this.
Previously, he worried Housekeeper Cao wouldn’t like it.
Now, he realized he was overthinking; he indeed didn’t dislike it, as he was now filled with delight...
