"What is it?" asked Xiao Minjing.

"A box, about a size smaller than a biscuit box, black, with a lock on it. Zhu Meidi suppressed her voice and said, "You don't care what it's for, anyway, after finding it, put it in the dresser cabinet door in my room, and then make a gesture with me." ”

Xiao Minjing listened, and couldn't help but be a little nervous: "Grandpa will kill me if he finds out?" ”

"When I found it, I found it, and it was originally something from our big house. Now that we are going to break up, it should be ours. I'm afraid that if I don't take the initiative to take it back, I will be divided by your grandfather. ”

The two of them met and discussed for a while, and Xiao Zhiwen, who set off for Xiaoshan Village early in the morning, led the uncle of the clan to arrive.

Xiao Jingbang also went downstairs with an unhappy face and sat next to the old man.

Zhu Meidi held the graceful bearing of her eldest daughter-in-law and served tea and snacks to her uncles.

She deliberately didn't make up, and her pale face became more and more flattering, and she had to agree to split up as a last resort.

The uncles stroked their beards appreciatively.

Such a daughter-in-law is very rare, and which daughter-in-law who usually marries in does not look forward to separating the family? It is only because of these old ages that they cannot bear to break the harmony of the family.

"Thanks, uncles!" Old Man Xiao exchanged a few words of greeting with several uncles and uncles who had not been in the city for a long time, and got to the point, "I invited my uncles here today to divide the family for my three sons......"

Xiao Minjing received her mother's glance, and quietly left the living room under the pretext that her son wanted to urinate.

Anyway, she is a married girl, and she has no right to dictate when it comes to the separation of her mother's family. No one in the audience paid attention to her departure.

She crept to the door of the old man's study. I held the doorknob and pushed it, and found that the door was really unlocked, and I was happy.

According to her mother's instructions, she looked around inside and outside the cabinet, under the table and table, but she didn't see the small black square box described by her mother.

"Mommy, duckling!

Zhouzhou is at the age of being a cat and a dog, don't look at the usual coaxing by Xiao Minjing in his arms, once he is active, he is quite skinny. Xiao Minjing was looking for a box there, he followed behind and groped around, did not open and close the cabinet door, and saw interesting things pulled out to play. No, while Xiao Minjing was not paying attention, he pulled out a small wooden duck with four wheels from under the desk, and as soon as the rope was pulled, the wooden duck gurgled and moved. He giggled excitedly.

Xiao Minjing was frightened, for fear that the laughter would spread and be heard by her grandfather. Hurriedly covered his son's mouth: "Baby, be soft, don't laugh." Mom will take you to eat cakes in a while. ”

"No, I'm going to play! This is so fun! I'm going to play!"

"This ......"

Xiao Minjing took a closer look and found that this little wooden duck seemed to be Xiao Minyi's third birthday gift, or the old man made it himself. It's a pity that within two months of her birthday, the girl disappeared.

She was secretly happy for a while, thinking that the dead girl was gone, and her grandfather should give her this little wooden duck. I didn't know that I waited for a long time, and then I gradually forgot about it.

I didn't expect to see it again today, and it was so well preserved by my grandfather, the car on it was slippery, but the wood was still very new, so it can be seen that someone has been wiping and rubbing it.

In other words, for so many years, grandpa has actually been remembering that dead girl?

Xiao Minjing was not angry for a while. I have really honored him in vain all these years!

Just when she was sulking to herself, Zhouzhou slipped out of her arms with the little wooden duck in her arms, giggled and ran out of the study, and shouted happily downstairs: "Grandma, grandma! Look what treasure I have found! The little duck made of wood is so funny!"

Xiao Minjing secretly said "Oops", and hurriedly got up to chase after him. The little wooden gun that she didn't want to be thrown on the ground by her son slipped and fell to the ground, "ouch", she was busy supporting her body, as if she had broken her feet.

"What's the matter? How do you let Zhouzhou run out alone and fall down the stairs?" Zhu Meidi hurriedly walked in with her grandson in her arms and asked in a low voice.

"Mom, didn't you find out by your grandfather?" Xiao Minjing stood up with difficulty holding her feet and neck, moved to a chair next to her, and sat down to rub her ankles. I hope I don't sprain it.

"If I hadn't heard Zhouzhou's voice, I would have come up and look, your grandfather and they would have found out. Asked you to do something, how did you do it? Did you find something?"

"What are you two looking for in my study?" Old Man Xiao's old voice came from the door of the study.

The two of them were shocked.

"Grandpa, grandpa!" Xiao Minjing panicked and wanted to stand up, there was a tingling pain in her ankle, thinking that she was really sprained, she sighed and fell back into the chair.

Zhu Meidi glanced at her, hugged her grandson and turned around with a smile: "Dad, you heard something, which one is we looking for, it is the little guy Zhouzhou, who lost his toys, and he has to come to your study to find it, so he can't be persuaded to listen." This duck that didn't turn out a wooden wheel, and was about to take it out to play, but Min Jing couldn't take it down, but tripped and twisted her foot, and I was asking her to find some wound plaster to paste. ”

Old Man Xiao glanced at the two of them with a pale face, and said in a deep voice: "Oh, the wound plaster has also found my study, have you found it, Minjing?"

Xiao Min was startled, and found that the side doors of the desk and the upper and lower doors of the bookcase were open, and the ornaments inside were visible. Fortunately, he put away a few important documents, otherwise he wouldn't have gone downstairs without locking the door.

"What are you two doing here! I don't know if Dad's study can't be entered casually?" Xiao Jingbang hurriedly stepped forward to play a round game, hugged his grandson from his wife's hand, and asked her to pick up his daughter, "Why don't you go back to your room to take medicine, Dad is busy with business, and the uncles are still waiting downstairs, I really don't know the priorities!"

"I think it's okay to split up here, second brother, you go and invite the uncles up, I don't think they will be crowded in the study. lest there be any movement for a while, provoking the old man to run up and down. Xiao Yanwu's voice came from the door.

"Then let's do what Xiao San said. The old man snorted, got up from his wheelchair, pinched the leather document bag in his hand, sat down at the desk, opened the middle drawer, and took out the ink and private seal.

It turns out that I forgot to stamp the separation agreement.

As a result, Zhu Meidi's abacus fell through again, and she became more and more anxious.

Where the hell is the treasure chest, the treasure chest? She was sure that it was in the old man's study, because after the death of the old woman, all the relics were stored in the old man's study. Including the treasures handed down by the ancestors of the Xiao family, they are also displayed in the secret cabinet in the study. Even if the old man's bedroom was moved from upstairs to downstairs a few years ago due to the inconvenience of going up and down the stairs, this study has never been moved. Rather fill in half of the stairs and make it a wheelchair-friendly ramp.
