Chapter 2: The Magical Mahogany Chest
Shu Yao carried the oil lamp on the table and quickly found the exit of the cellar, which was in the corner of the utility room. She was glad that there was a bag of hay piled on top of the wooden lid at the exit, otherwise, with her current small body, she really wouldn't be able to push heavy things. She lifted the lid with all her might, and panting to find that the cellar was so bright that it seemed to have several large oil lamps lit.
In this way, if she wanted to carry the oil lamp down the wooden ladder, it would be really difficult for her, who is only six years old now, with short hands and short legs. She set the lamp in the corner of the wall, away from the hay, and carefully climbed down the wooden ladder.
When she arrived in the cellar, Shu Yao found that it was not an oil lamp that illuminated the place, but a huge night pearl, the size of her fist.
With her back to the direction of the ladder, against the wall lay two large locked boxes and a dosage box half her height. The dosage box was heavy, and she had a hard time holding it, let alone out of the cellar.
Shu Yao took off the key and opened the makeup box, only to find that the box was made of mahogany on the outside, but the inside was a kind of swarthy iron, no wonder it was so heavy. The dowry box has three layers, and the first layer is a stack of silver tickets, which add up to more than 20,000 taels of silver. There is also a deed, which is made of green bamboo. The second floor is filled with valuable jewelry. On the third floor, there was a mahogany box the size of a book, two keys, and a number of government documents, two of which were her and Shuwen's birthday papers.
The mahogany box was very heavy, and it was estimated that it was made of iron like the makeup box. The box couldn't be opened, and there was no keyhole, so Shu Yao had to put it down first, and there was no time to think about this at the moment.
Shu Yao took out the silver ticket, the identity deed, and the official documents and stuffed them into his arms, and then took the two keys and quickly locked the dowry box.
I wonder if these two keys are two big boxes? Shu Yao tried to open a large box first, and the padlock was opened, and it was a box full of silver. When I opened the other one, it was full of precious medicinal materials such as ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, and deer antler velvet, all of which were thinly wrapped in oiled paper.
It's no wonder that in the previous life, the uncle and the third uncle had a big fight with the eldest uncle's family, and they almost went to court, it should be all for these two boxes of things, right? But how can this be hidden? She looked around anxiously again, and there were three large bamboo baskets of sweet potatoes, two large bags of flour, and four bags of white rice in the cellar.
Shu Yao was so anxious that tears came out, she couldn't take these things, and there was nowhere to hide, and the eldest brother wouldn't come back so soon, would she have to cheapen the wolf-hearted uncle and uncle for nothing? Hmph, she'd rather burn these things than leave them to the wicked people. Shu Yao's right hand slapped the wooden shelf next to the sack, and the stinging pain hit from the palm of his hand, and a wooden thorn was impressive. Shu Yao held back her tears and pulled out the wooden thorns, bringing out a large blood bead, the blood bead rolled down rapidly, dripping on the ground, the red light flashed in front of her eyes, and a huge red wooden box appeared in front of Shu Yao's eyes.
Shu Yao forgot about the pain in her palm and opened her eyes wide, what was going on? Where did the box come from, will it be gone? As soon as the thought came to mind, the big box was gone. Shu Yao was in a hurry, and thought again, will it appear again? The box appeared again in an instant.
This? This? An Ran was suddenly a little frightened and looked around.
No matter what, something as bizarre as being reborn as a six-year-old can happen, what's so strange about it? Shu Yao thought about opening the mahogany box, and the lid of the box opened automatically, Shu Yao was happy and surprised, looking into the box, the mahogany box was divided into six compartments, and there were words on the baffle: preservation, efficiency, color, spirit, living things, sundries.
Preservation? It's supposed to be to keep it fresh, right? Then the rice noodles are best placed here. But what if those sacks and baskets are too heavy to move?
Shu Yao suddenly thought that she could use her mind to make the mahogany box appear, disappear, and open, but could she let those things fit into the mahogany box by herself? Give it a try.
She silently said in her heart: put three baskets of sweet potatoes into the mahogany box to keep them fresh.
In an instant, the sweet potato disappeared from its original location and entered the mahogany box.
Shu Yao was so happy that she almost fainted, she just wanted to try it, and forgot to think about the size of the bamboo basket, so she directly silently recited "Put three baskets of sweet potatoes into the mahogany box to keep them fresh", but she didn't expect this mahogany box to automatically increase and put all three baskets of sweet potatoes into it.
Then he became proficient, and Shu Yao quickly put the white rice and flour into the fresh-keeping compartment, the whole box of silver and the dowry box into the utility compartment, and the whole box of medicinal herbs into the efficiency compartment. Increasing efficiency and efficiency, is it just increasing the effect?
Suddenly thinking of those things in his arms, he quickly took them out and put them on the face of the makeup box.
Shu Yao nervously tried twice to make the mahogany box disappear, appear, open, and close, and then climbed the wooden ladder with the Night Pearl.
Out of the cellar, Shu Yao showed up the mahogany box again, put the night pearl and the little key in it, then closed the cellar, moved the hay bag back to its place, and hurried back to the house.
Back on the bed, Shu Yao looked at her mother who seemed to be asleep, thinking about the tragic experience of her family in her previous life, and couldn't help but pounce on Donnie Yen and cry.
was crying sadly, Cuizhu rushed in while taking off her robe: "Girl, what's wrong with you?" Girl, don't cry, Cuizhu is back. ”
Rao is Shuyao has been mentally prepared, and when she saw Cuizhu, she still couldn't help the resentment in her heart, she was afraid that she would pounce on her and bite her......
"Do you think your mother is really sad and too sick? Hmph, that's Cuizhu added something to your mother's decoction. Hahaha...... A family of idiots...... Hahaha...... Ha Lu haha...... "Ke Ling's sharp laughter continued to echo in his ears.
"Wow---" Shuyao's best cover now is to cry, what she wants to do the most is also to cry, all the grievances, all the regrets have cried at one time, in the future, what she Xia Shuyao has to do is to protect her eldest brother and younger brother well, live well, she will no longer naively listen to the coaxing of those people, she really thinks that she is the darling of God, the noble son of heaven, and the golden phoenix that cannot be trapped in the low bushes......
"Small people in the market", these four words suddenly popped up in Shu Yao's mind. In her previous life, Murong Zhi, the second lady of Shangshu Mansion, always called her a small person in the market with contempt, she was ashamed of this, and even fought with Murong Zhi for this, and was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, and there was no food for three days and three nights.
Now that she has been reborn, she just wants to be a small citizen in the market with her eldest brother and younger brother, and not look up to the so-called family.
Cuizhu saw that the girl ignored her, just kept crying, and didn't feel strange, such a night of lightning and thunder, wind and rain, and such a small girl, it was strange not to cry in fright. However, the girl has always been sticky to her, and it would be good to stay for a while and coax her twice.
After putting away the robe, Cuizhu walked over, seeing that Donnie Yen had not woken up yet, motionless, thinking that Wu Langzhong said that his wife would not survive tonight, he couldn't help but reach out to Donnie Yen's nose.
"Ah--- madam, madam, wake up, madam---" Cuizhu began to howl, but the flash of joy did not escape Shu Yao's eyes.
Cuizhu howled a few times, reaching out to hold Shu Yao in his arms. Shu Yao turned around and pounced on Donnie Yen......
Cuizhu was stunned for a moment, withdrew his hand in a daze, and continued to cry: "Madam, you are leaving like this, what should the young master and the girl do?" Madame, wake up. "Why is the girl a little strange today, it seems to be different, is she frightened?
"Mother---
"Mother---
With two poignant calls, two figures, one big and one small, rushed in, it was Shu Yao's eldest brother Xia Shujie and twin brother Xia Shuwen.
Shujie knelt in front of the bed with a "poof": "Mother, it's all my fault, I couldn't invite Lang Zhong back, my mother ---"
"Big brother, my mother is dead, just like my father, no matter how Yao'er shouts, my mother ignores Yao'er, big brother, my mother is dead, woo woo." Shu Yao threw herself into Shu Jie's arms, hugged his neck tightly and cried so much that her liver and intestines were broken. In his last life, the eldest brother died tragically for her, but he didn't see her until the end. I'm sorry, big brother, I'm sorry, in this life, Yao'er will definitely not make you sad again.
Shuwen also pounced: "Big brother, woo, big brother, Shuwen wants a mother, woo woo." ”
Shujie hugged his two young siblings tightly, and his heart was like a knife. Now, he only has them, and they only have him.
