CHAPTER 112: CHAPTER 112: WILL THIS PLAN WORK?

"Sigh, I wonder if they’ll be able to intercept the letter!"

"Such a troublesome thing!"

Mrs. Zeng sat on the kang, packing clothes while muttering resentfully.

Yuan Bao listened to her grandmother’s complaints and her eyes darted as she had an idea.

"Mom, I’m hungry!"

Yuan Bao thought of a way to intercept the letter, but this matter needed to be handled well, and she couldn’t pull it off as a little kid; she needed help.

Ideally, the best helper would be her little uncle.

But her little uncle had followed her father and eldest uncle into the city, so Yuan Bao had to find someone else.

This person could only be her mother.

Mrs. Xiao Li was originally helping Mrs. Zeng tidy things up. Upon hearing her daughter say she was hungry, before she could respond, Mrs. Zeng already shouted for her to go to the kitchen to get some food, as her darling granddaughter couldn’t be starved.

Thus, Yuan Bao tricked her mother out of her grandmother’s room.

"Mom, go to the city!"

"I have a way to get the letter out of the mailbox!"

Once Mrs. Xiao Li carried Yuan Bao to the courtyard, Yuan Bao whispered in her mother’s ear.

"Jiaojiao, what did you say?"

Mrs. Xiao Li was stunned upon hearing her daughter’s words.

Yuan Bao didn’t care if her actions appeared overly clever; she only knew that the letter must be intercepted.

Otherwise, even if their family left Shiqu Village, as long as they were still within Daxia territory, they could still be found.

"Mom, hurry to the city, we’ll discuss it on the way!"

There are many ways to destroy the letter from the mailbox, such as pouring some oil or alcohol inside; with just a spark, the letters within would turn to ash.

However, Yuan Bao knew she couldn’t do that.

After all, she didn’t know how many letters were inside the mailbox; if someone else’s important letter was mixed in and ruined, that would be a big mistake.

Doing harm to benefit oneself goes against Yuan Bao’s principles and cannot be done.

So, she could only find another way to retrieve the letter from the mailbox.

Mrs. Xiao Li also knew the significance of this letter. After listening to Yuan Bao, she stopped speaking and rushed to Sanchuan City with her.

"Jiaojiao, how do you plan to get the letter back?"

Urgently walking towards the city, Mrs. Xiao Li didn’t forget to speak with Yuan Bao.

Yuan Bao giggled and said, "Of course, by writing another letter!"

"What do you mean?"

"Just write another letter and then find someone to open the mailbox, claiming something important was forgotten and not put in the envelope!"

"Forgot what?"

"Silver note!"

"What?!"

Mrs. Xiao Li couldn’t help but exclaim upon hearing her daughter say "silver note."

"Mom, you can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing the child!"

Yuan Bao smacked her lips, "Compared to a few taels of silver, this letter is more crucial, isn’t it?"

Mrs. Xiao Li instantly became silent.

Indeed, if this letter fell into the Sheng Family’s hands, their family’s future would be uncertain.

Mrs. Xiao Li walked quickly and soon entered Sanchuan City, found the posthouse, and saw Yuan Pandi, Yuan Zhaodi, and Yuan Yindi standing at the alley entrance opposite.

When Mrs. Xiao Li carried Yuan Bao closer, the three of them were a bit stunned and thought something had happened.

Mrs. Xiao Li quickly explained Yuan Bao’s plan.

"Xiao Wu, do you think Jiaojiao’s plan will work?"

After hearing Mrs. Xiao Li’s words, Yuan Pandi and Yuan Zhaodi both looked at Yuan Yindi.

After all, among the five brothers, Yuan Yindi was the smartest.
