166 Heirloom
The old lady pointed to the corner of the wall and said in a low voice: "Do you remember that place, when you were a child, you were naughty and reinvigorated the bricks on the wall, and then your mother re-plugged it-"
Cao Yunjie nodded, "Why don't you remember, the two of us still talked about it, and we didn't tell anyone, mother, why did you say this?" ”
The old lady smiled bitterly, "Second child, remember, where are the heirlooms of our family-"
Cao Yunjie was taken aback by these words, they had all heard of the heirloom before, of course they had seen it, this thing was let him see it after he became an adult, but that thing was really not a good thing in his eyes, a gray whistle, he couldn't see what material it was, he didn't understand how the ancestors could pass this thing down from generation to generation as a treasure.

But then he was startled by what his mother said, his eyes widened, and his mouth couldn't close when he opened it.
"......, your eldest brother runs outside all the year round, and this thing tells him that it is a trouble, and my mother is worried that if he misses any of his words, he will cause death.
Your sister-in-law, I'm still a little worried, not to mention the three of you, the three of you, my mother thinks that only the two of you are the most suitable, remember, keep secrets, this thing may not be auspicious in my mother's opinion, maybe it is the bane.
But then again, for many generations, no one has come to me, so you will keep it, continue to pass it on, and there will really be a day when it will be opened, and warn future generations, don't have any extravagant hopes, just take it for you, and it's not our ...... if you don't give it."
After the old lady explained everything, she took a big breath, "There are too many things happening in the family this year, I now suspect that your brother's disappearance back then is also related to these things in the family, and my mother can't say it well, you should be careful, you can't tell your daughter-in-law for the time being, and it's not too late for you to say it when you get older......."
After instructing her son, all the old lady's spirit seemed to be drained, and she waved her hand with a wistful expression, "You go back, my mother is tired-"
Cao Yunjie is really not at ease, the old lady said one shocking secret after another tonight, each one is more thrilling than the other, even if he goes back, he won't be able to sleep for a while.
said in a low voice, "Mother, you fall asleep first, I'll guard you by the side, no one will disturb you, you can sleep in peace—"
At this moment, he even hopes that no one will come to their house in this life, that thing is worthless to him, on the contrary, it is a kind of inheritance and responsibility, he really wishes that the old lady was telling others today instead of himself.
But thinking that he can also understand his mother's hard work, this time is enough to make his mother frightened, looking at his mother's sleeping face, Cao Yunjie's eyes are a little sour.
The mother is old, and she has long lost the soft and delicate face she had when she was young, with gray hair and wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and forehead, reminding him all the time that her mother is no longer young, and the years have ruthlessly left all kinds of marks on her body.
The maids waiting under the porch didn't know what was going on inside, they were anxiously pacing back and forth, the old lady should be resting at this time, but the second master didn't come out, and they didn't dare to go in.
Fortunately, Cao Yunjie came out soon, "You guys are on duty all night, the old lady is already asleep, she is not in good health, you have to take good care of it, don't fall asleep-"
Cao Yunjie walked out with a lot of concern, he didn't want to go back to rest now, he wanted to digest the information he heard just now.
After patrolling all over the yard, after the last incident, the guards and patrols in various places did not dare to slack off, and said hello to everyone before going back to the house to rest.
The people of the Cao family rushed to the city in such a mighty group early in the morning, even if it was not publicized, it was eye-catching.
"Hey, the people of the Cao family are back, you see-"
The news that the old man of the Cao family brought people back flew all over every corner like wings, and this news undoubtedly reassured everyone who was still panicked and anxious.
The people of the prefect's family have all returned, is the plague about to pass, what are they afraid of, no one is afraid, what else are they afraid of, they are ordinary people, what else is to fear.
It wasn't just everyone who heard the news, even Shui Yao and Qi Shuyu heard it.
Qi Shuyu, who was hiding in the courtyard of the Qi family, couldn't sit still at the moment, the people of the Cao family had come back, and if she didn't show up as a daughter-in-law, she would really have no face in front of her father-in-law.
"Mother, I have to go back, I heard that the old lady is sick, and the two of them are at home, and they are not there compared to me, doesn't it make me look good?"
The woman muttered dissatisfiedly, "That dead old lady is not sick sooner or later, how can she just catch up with such a time and drag people down-"
Qi Shuyu grabbed the woman's arm and said coquettishly: "Mother, it is good for us that she is alive, and there is only good and no harm in having her to support her in that family, I regret it a little this time, I don't know what the old lady thinks of me." ”
The woman snorted angrily and nodded her daughter's forehead, "Little conscienceless, mother, who is this for, okay, the woman is not staying, go back, you can also behave well, as long as the old guy doesn't die, at least she protects you, you can't suffer much loss-"
Qi Shuyu was leaving, the housemother of the Qi family brought someone to see her off in person, in front of her mother, Qi Shuyu didn't dare to blatantly call her mother, so she could only say goodbye to her aunt.
"Mother, aunt, take care, when it's free, I'll bring the child over to see you-"
The mother of the Qi family had a smile on her face, but she didn't feel good in her heart, this concubine was originally arranged by her, but she didn't expect to let the demon woman seize the opportunity, and now even she has to give this concubine a few thin noodles, who makes the family marry well, the mother-in-law's family is a famous businessman, and the man is a person with a bright future, although he hates it, he has to cheer up to deal with the two of them.
"Go home and take good care of your mother-in-law, otherwise others will think that the daughter of our Qi family is going back to her mother's house to avoid responsibility, go back and talk to your mother-in-law well, your aunt's health is almost better, let her not worry."
These are gifts from our family to your mother-in-law......"
Qi Shuyu looked at the things given by the master's mother, and nodded with satisfaction, "Thank you, mother, I'm leaving, you guys go back-"
Shui Yao sat in the teahouse, and naturally saw the convoy of Qi Shuyu coming back, "This Qi family is really not bad for money, a concubine can move so many things back to her mother's house, it seems that this mother and daughter's status in the Qi family is really high." ”
