"Alright, is there anything new in this room?"
Han Mo smiled and looked at Chun Tao.
"Second brother, how did you know something new appeared in our room?"
As Chun Tao spoke, she brought out a large bundle.
"Look at them, isn't it obvious they want to frame you? Nothing to be surprised about. I'm curious, what exactly is inside this?"
Han Mo said, stepping forward to take the bundle and place it on the table. He froze the moment he opened it.
"This, how can there be..."
Chun Tao only glanced at the contents, and her face immediately flushed crimson.
The bundle contained nothing but women's clothing.
Moreover, they were all intimate items like camisoles, with exquisite embroidery and the unique luster of silk.
It looked like these were definitely used by the female masters of the Han family.
These guys really wished he would die.
It was fortunate he discovered it early, otherwise, if he had been framed, he would never be able to clear his name.
"What should we do with these?"
Chun Tao asked, her face red.
"No rush, pack the bundle. The one who tied the knot must untie it. Let them solve this problem themselves."
It seemed this matter couldn't be let go. Cai Shu was too insidious. He discovered it this time, but what about next time? What if he didn't discover it?
If this guy wasn't dealt with, he would probably cause trouble for him for a long time to come.
However, just thinking about Cai Jing's current influence made even Han Mo's head ache.
He really needed to plan carefully if he wanted to deal with this kid!
"For whom?"
Chun Tao asked Han Mo with a confused look.
"Pack up the things in this bundle and throw it back to the person kneeling at the entrance of the courtyard. Let him deal with it cleanly, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Han Mo said with a frown, while pondering how to deal with Cai Shu.
"The person kneeling at the door?"
Hearing Han Mo say that, Chun Tao finally noticed that there was indeed a person kneeling at the courtyard entrance.
Seeing Han Mo frowning and deep in thought, Chun Tao dared not interrupt him.
After hastily packing the bundle, she took it outside the small courtyard.
"Steward Xu? How could it be you?"
Chun Tao's eyes widened.
"I..."
Xu San Bao felt extremely awkward. He really didn't know what to say.
"Brother Mo said to have you deal with this yourself..."
Although Chun Tao was curious, she didn't press further.
"This, this, this, sister, rest assured. Go back and tell the young master that I will handle this perfectly, and there will be no mistakes."
Xu San Bao said, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
Chun Tao almost burst out laughing. She was only fourteen or fifteen this year, and Xu San Bao was at least fifty. He called her sister...
"Steward Xu, you should just call me Chun Tao..."
Xu San Bao's sudden politeness made Chun Tao very uncomfortable.
"This is my fault, please don't be angry, young lady!"
Xu San Bao said, forcing a fawning smile.
"Then, can Brother Mo's monthly wages not be deducted?"
Although she didn't know why he was so polite to her, Chun Tao still asked, blinking her eyes.
"This, this, this, I will go back immediately and have them send the deducted monthly wages to the young master!"
Thinking of what he had done before, Xu San Bao felt even more scared.
With such a big handle in Han Mo's hands, if Han Mo wanted revenge, he would have nowhere to go.
"Then you can keep kneeling, I'm leaving!"
Although she didn't know why Xu San Bao was here, Chun Tao felt a sense of satisfaction.
Since Han Jiayan didn't come here much anymore, the three of them had suffered a lot of slights.
It wasn't until nightfall that Han Mo woke from his deep thought.
He had finally figured out how to deal with Cai Shu, but that matter wasn't urgent. His immediate priority was to make money and find a way to enter officialdom.
Other matters would have to be dealt with as they arose!
"Second brother, Steward Xu is still kneeling outside. It's cold and freezing, you see..."
The young girl was still young and kind-hearted. Seeing Xu San Bao swaying in the cold wind, she reminded him softly.
"I'll go take a look!"
Han Mo smiled and walked out.
"You've been kneeling for so long, do you resent me?"
Han Mo came to Xu San Bao's side, squatted down, and asked with a smile.
"I dare not! I dare not! It was all my fault for not recognizing your greatness. Young master, please spare me this time!"
Seeing that Han Mo had finally come out, Xu San Bao immediately began to beg for mercy again.
"This incident is a lesson for you. If you dare to betray us again in the future, remember these hours you've spent kneeling!"
Hearing Han Mo say that, Xu San Bao finally felt relieved. He had passed this hurdle.
"This is a document from the manor. It was personally written by my grand-uncle. Wait for me here tomorrow morning!"
Under the dim light of the nearby lantern, Xu San Bao quickly glanced at the contents of the document and asked in a low voice.
"Young master, rest assured. I just don't know what kind of courtyard you need?"
"As long as it's secluded and spacious enough! As for anything else, you don't need to worry about it!"
Han Mo smiled and said.
"There are a few ready-made ones at the east end of this estate. They are all large enough, but the houses are a bit old. Young master, you can go and take a look tomorrow. If you like them, I'll immediately arrange for the servants to repair them!"
Finally able to do something for Han Mo, Xu San Bao was eager to use all his might.
"You handle these matters. Since there's such a place, I'll go take a look first thing tomorrow morning!"
Seeing how attentive he was, a satisfied smile finally appeared on Han Mo's lips.
After this incident, this guy would probably never dare to plot against him again!
However, the issue of the venue was resolved, but a new problem arose. He didn't intend to hand over the recipes to unrelated people.
But he was reluctant to ask Chun Tao to do it. Did he have to go out and buy some servants himself?
