An Bohuai is not a very cautious person, but since the movement began, he has witnessed some tragedies and his daughter has been nagging him all the time, so he has kind of retreated into his shell and remains quite vigilant towards the outside world.
However, what Lao Fan said this time really hit the nail on the head.
A rare copy of an ancient book! Famous calligraphy and painting! If it is really destroyed by someone, what a huge loss it will be! Amber Huai's heart ached just thinking about it.
He sold all his property despite his family's opposition and went around the world to buy antiques. His passion for antiques was the reason why he could not bear to see those cultural treasures destroyed in war or lost overseas.
Now An Bohuai's heart has not changed. When he heard about the rare copy of the classics, he instantly forgot everything else. However, he has now developed the habit of discussing everything with his daughter, so even if An Hua doesn't come today, he will find time to go over and talk to An Hua.
An Hua roughly guessed what happened as soon as she heard it.
What era is this? People can make a big deal out of even the smallest issue and bring down a person or a family.
Considering the information collected during this period, An Hua dared to conclude that what Lao Fan had mentioned before, that he wanted his niece's granddaughter to help An Hua with the work, was instigated by Niu Degui.
Fortunately, she refused at that time.
When Niu Degui’s plan failed, he came up with another one and dug a trap for An Bohuai.
It's no wonder that this pit was tailor-made for Amber Huai.
——If they hadn't been keeping an eye on Niu Degui and knew everything he said and did, An Hua might not have thought it was a trap, let alone gone after Niu Degui.
"What's wrong, daughter?" An Bohuai was a little nervous. "Is there a problem?"
"Of course there is a problem!" An Hua told An Bohuai everything.
Amber Huai broke out in a cold sweat, "This old Fan, I made friends with him sincerely, but he actually wanted to frame me!"
An Bohuai talked about the story between himself and Lao Fan. He said that he met Lao Fan as soon as he arrived in Yun County. They got along very well. Lao Fan was the only person he knew in Yun County who could be called a close friend.
"Old Fan might have been sincere in dating you at the beginning... It is precisely because of this that Niu Degui might have thought of using him to set a trap for us."
An Bohuai was so angry that his beard stood up. "I want to break up with him! Break up with him!"
"Don't be busy, Dad," An Hua smiled, "Those rare ancient books that Lao Fan showed you should be authentic, right?"
An Bohuai said with certainty, "Of course it is real. I have good eyesight."
An Hua also felt that since Niu Degui wanted to use bait to fish, he would definitely not use a fake bait.
Then she could take advantage of the situation and take the bait.
An Hua leaned close to An Bohuai and whispered something.
An Bohuai's eyes lit up for a moment, then he hesitated and said, "Isn't it too dangerous? Although I feel sorry for those things, compared to dead things, our family's lives are more important."
An Hua: "Dad, as long as you do what I say, I promise we can successfully eat his bait and get away with it, leaving him with nothing."
An Bohuai looked at his daughter's confident expression and asked, "Is this what the son-in-law meant?"
An Bohuai's idea was also normal. In his opinion, although his daughter was much more opinionated than before, she had no social resources and no power after all, so she must have the help of her son-in-law behind the scenes.
An Bohuai still trusts his son-in-law's ability. For example, regarding the matter of collecting antiques, if he didn't have a son-in-law, he wouldn't feel comfortable handing over all the antiques to his daughter.
An Hua understood An Bohuai's thoughts and nodded affirmatively, "Yes, that's what he meant."
