Chapter 454
"Baa! Baa!"
Following the sound of sheep, flocks of sheep were leisurely active on the grassland.
Nearby, there were also livestock and poultry such as pigs, cows, chickens, ducks, and geese.
In addition, there were many animals in the mountains and forests that would be listed for protection in the future.
Lady Amherst's pheasants, hazel grouse, Cabot's tragopans, Elliot's pheasants, white-naped cranes...
Mongolian gazelles, quails, pintail ducks, white swans, and other birds and beasts.
It was just that he hadn't gone to the Shu region, otherwise Cao Weiguo would have had to bring in a giant panda.
But that was only a matter of time, and for this, he had specifically planned a bamboo forest.
After strolling through the vibrant forest, he made another batch of century eggs, cured meat, and sausages.
It was already past one in the morning when he returned to the study.
When he walked out of the study, he happened to see a figure running out of the Xu house.
"Banggeng!"
Cao Weiguo, with his excellent eyesight, recognized the person at a glance.
Banggeng was scared out of his wits the moment he saw Cao Weiguo.
But as the Thief Saint of the Sihe Academy, how could he give up the fruits of his labor?
He glared fiercely at Cao Weiguo, holding liquor in one hand and meat in the other.
Like a weasel, he scurried away from the backyard.
Cao Weiguo didn't shout to stop him, but instead, a gratified smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
Banggeng had truly not lived up to his expectations!
Banggeng hadn't committed any crimes for some time.
He had even thought that Banggeng had turned over a new leaf.
This had once made him feel sorry that the Jia family had lost a talent.
Without the Thief Saint of the Sihe Academy, could the Jia family still have a future?
Would Jia Zhangshi lose hope because of this after she returned?
But today, Banggeng showed him the dawn.
The Jia family hadn't declined!
The future of the Jia family hadn't been cut short!
The prosperity of the Jia family was just around the corner!
Banggeng hadn't let Jia Zhangshi down!
Actually, Cao Weiguo didn't know.
Banggeng hadn't been idle during this time either.
He just hadn't come to the backyard to steal things.
Because ever since Cao Weiguo brought Afu home.
Banggeng would trigger a reaction from Afu whenever he got close to the Cao house.
A burst of barking would cause quite a commotion.
This forced Banggeng to retreat in a hurry, and he hated Cao Weiguo to death in his heart.
Since he couldn't steal from the Cao family, Banggeng shifted his target elsewhere.
There weren't many families in the front and middle courtyards that had been spared.
Banggeng had visited them all, more or less.
It was just that Banggeng had restrained himself, stealing only small things.
Grabbing a few handfuls of rice from one house, taking a head of garlic from another.
He didn't even bring these things home.
He took them all outside to trade for snacks.
He hadn't spent his time in the juvenile detention center in vain; he had met quite a few good friends.
Those good friends weren't old, but their connections were wild.
Whether it was big or small, they could help handle it.
It had to be said that going to the juvenile detention center was like advanced studies for Banggeng.
Originally, Banggeng rarely came to the backyard to commit crimes.
But this time, Xu Damao was just too flashy.
Banggeng felt that if he didn't steal something, he would be letting down Jia Zhangshi's cultivation.
So he waited until the dead of night before Banggeng ran out to show off his skills.
The Xu family didn't keep a dog, and Xu Damao was as drunk as a dead dog.
Banggeng was truly like a fish in water when he arrived at the Xu house.
With a wave of his hand, he brought out a bottle of Fen liquor and a piece of pork.
It was just his bad luck to run into Cao Weiguo.
This scared Banggeng out of his wits.
Banggeng didn't sleep well all night after returning home.
But the next day, except for Xu Damao shouting and yelling.
Cao Weiguo didn't say a word.
This made Banggeng overjoyed.
He thought Cao Weiguo had poor eyesight and hadn't recognized him.
This crime had earned him a big profit.
Having tasted the sweetness, Banggeng looked at Xu Damao's house.
It was like seeing fat and fragrant red-braised pork.
Thinking of the things in the kitchen and cupboard.
Banggeng couldn't help but feel excited and itchy-handed.
This rich guy Xu Damao.
He had so many good things at home and didn't even know to help my family.
Since you don't take the initiative to help.
Then I'll take it myself.
Grandma said that the Sihe Academy is a big family.
Everyone is one family.
Loving each other and not distinguishing between you and me.
If you lack something, just take it from a neighbor's house.
No need to be polite.
This is what neighbors should do.
Since you, Xu Damao, are as ignorant as Cao Weiguo.
Then I can only work a little harder.
And go to your house to take it myself.
Don't worry!
I won't take it for nothing.
When I make something of myself, I'll treat you to a feast! ===== CHAPTER 456 =====
