Chapter 666: A Mysterious Noise in the Basement
Zheng Kaiyan's mother's attitude is a little strange, since Zheng Kaiyan showed her head in front of the old man, she has been a little pretentious, even Zheng Jing's mother often doesn't give any face, but I don't know why, when she was asked by Zheng Jing's mother today, she seemed a little weak-hearted, and even deliberately puffed up her chest to confront Zheng Jing's mother.
"Why can't I come, although my son hasn't been involved in the project during this time, but anyway, we are all members of the Zheng family, and now the grandson of the old man has been wronged, what's wrong with me coming to celebrate?"
Zheng Jing's mother didn't expect that she just casually asked a few words, just like ordering Zheng Kaiyan's mother's cannonball, and was scolded and faced, and suddenly felt a little boring.
"You should know how false what you said, it's not like we don't know each other, you don't have to pretend anymore if you have a few pounds and a few taels."
Zheng Kaiyan's mother held on to her momentum, and when she heard Zheng Jing's mother belittle herself like this, her chest was so angry that she rose and fell.
"Speaking of which, when we came over, it seemed that we saw Xiuyan's child, why did Zheng Xiuyan disappear in a blink of an eye."
Another lady in the crowd suddenly remembered something, and slapped her face in surprise.
It's just that this surprise doesn't matter, Zheng Kaiyan's mother jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on, glared at the person who spoke fiercely, and exploded all over her body.
"What are you looking for her? She's just a young girl, isn't it strange that she can't wait to leave first? ”
The lady who mentioned Zheng Xiuyan looked at Zheng Kaiyan's mother strangely several times, and didn't understand why she had such a big reaction just by asking casually, and her face was a little ugly.
On the contrary, Zheng Jing's mother looked at her very strange reaction from beginning to end, her face was ugly and she was a little cautious.
And Zheng Xiuyan, who made Zheng Kaiyan's mother react so abnormally, did not leave the small building where Helian Quan lived as she said - even Zheng Xiuyan was hiding there now, while those ladies were busy setting up the dining table, Zheng Xiuyan found a gap and slipped into the corridor leading to the basement of the small building, and then hid in the shadows and did not move.
Zheng Xiuyan is in the shadow of the stairs, a delicate little girl is hiding there, although this small building is also cleaned every day, but there are inevitably some dead corners, just like a piece of spider silk that Zheng Xiuyan plucked from his clothes now.
“……”
Zheng Xiuyan's face was inevitably a little green, although she was not the biological daughter of Zheng Kaiyan's parents, but she had never been in such a dirty place since she was a child, and she almost wanted to scream at the moment she saw the dress she was wearing stained with dust, and it took a lot of effort to suppress an exclamation in her throat.
She could smell the aroma of the carefully prepared dishes on the table, which the ladies had prepared in the kitchen, and the smell was extremely tempting.
Zheng Xiuyan swallowed her saliva, and then pricked up her ears to listen to the voices of the two people in the restaurant, extra cautious.
In the restaurant, Helian Quan was pulling out a stool for Zhen Jiabao, looking at the steaming dishes on the table, a little surprised.
"It seems that they really put their heart into it in order to catch the wind and wash the dust for me."
Helian Quan didn't know what the emotion was, and lowered his eyes as he spoke.
Zhen Jiabao sat down directly at the dining table, and then served a bowl of stomach-nourishing soup for Helian Quan.
"I don't care what those people think, you're in that kind of place
After being closed for so many days, I must not have eaten properly. ”
Shoved the bowl of soup into Helian Quan's hand, Zhen Jiabao looked at him with a distressed face.
"I'm really afraid you're going to have a stomach problem."
Helian Quan's face showed a hint of a smile, and he also sat down at the dining table, drank the bowl of soup very face-saving, and then lifted his chopsticks to clip a piece of jade hibiscus shrimp for Zhen Jiabao.
"Knows you care about me."
Phew, I'm still grinding and chirping like this after eating, I really don't know what Helian Quan likes about her?
Zheng Xiuyan, who was hiding aside, silently complained about Zhen Jiabao's hypocrisy in her heart - who wouldn't say nice words? What's the use of just talking about a few words after the matter is over.
Zheng Xiuyan refused to admit that he was actually jealous, but he refused to admit defeat, and listened more and more carefully to the conversation between the two people, and the more he listened, the more angry he became.
Fortunately, Zhen Jiabao thought that Helian Quan hadn't rested well in the past few days, and after the two of them had a meal in a hurry, they rushed Helian Quan upstairs to wash and rest, Zheng Xiuyan only listened to the footsteps of the two people and went upstairs alternately, hiding in the stairs of the basement, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"These two are finally gone......"
Finally having the courage to move, Zheng Xiuyan first gave himself some exaggerated relief, and then pricked up his ears to listen to the footsteps of the waiting people leaving the small building after tidying up the dining table.
She knew that Helian Quan had never liked to have servants stay in the small building for a long time, and after confirming that those people had completely left, she waited for a while before Zheng Xiuyan crept out from behind the stairs.
She held a key in her hand, and after coming out of the back of the stairs, Zheng Xiuyan stood there to confirm the silence in the small building, then took two deep breaths, and walked towards the door of the basement with the key in her hand tightly.
The locks of the Zheng family have always been top-notch, not to mention that the locks in this basement are all treasures left by Helian Quan's mother, so they can't be opened with something like a master key at all.
Thankfully, the person who gave him the task was able to get the key to the basement...... Zheng Xiuyan was secretly glad in his heart, but at the same time, he was playing some drums, and he didn't know if the key in his hand could successfully open the door lock in the basement.
Quietly poking the key into the keyhole, Zheng Xiuyan tentatively twisted the key in his hand, but found that the door lock was really twisted.
Her hand trembled instantly, then she used her left hand to grip the wrist of her right hand holding the key, tried to remain as calm as she could, unlocked the door completely, and pushed open the basement door.
As soon as Zheng Xiuyan pushed it open, she found that the decoration of this basement was definitely not trivial, and there were many priceless things in it as she imagined.
It's a pity that my mission is only to take that one thing with me......
Zheng Xiuyan's eyes greedily turned around the random things several times, and then his eyes turned red with some jealousy.
These are the dowries that Helian Quan's mother didn't have time to take away when she became a monk, and I heard that there is a priceless blue diamond in it, but I don't know where it was put in.
If you can find that diamond...... Wang Guo's heart hesitated twice between completing the task and gaining wealth, and then after finding something that the person who gave her the key had asked her to get, he put it aside, turned his head and began to search for other conveniences
Take away something of value.
The diamond that Zheng Xiuyan was so anxious to find was of course the 'Heart of the Ocean' that Zhen Jiabao had heard of, but it was a pity that she searched for a long time but didn't find it, but in addition to this diamond, she did find a lot of valuable things.
Zheng Xiuyan grabbed a lot of them, such as fragmented gems and necklaces, and began to hate that he was wearing a gorgeous and elegant skirt instead of clothes with pockets sewn all over his body.
Otherwise, you have to pack most of the things in this basement, Zheng Xiuyan, who is already red-eyed, has almost forgotten the purpose of coming here, and he didn't notice the sound of the door opening from the second floor at all.
Zhen Jiabao also wanted to rest for a while after watching Helian Quan fall asleep, but he didn't expect to just take the water cup and go to the first floor to pour a glass of water, but he heard the sound of Xi Xi Suo from the basement, so that the cup in Zhen Jiabao's hand was almost not stable.
Fortunately, the bottom of the home shoes he was wearing was very soft, and as long as he walked on the stairs, he could hardly make any sound as long as he paid attention, Zhen Jiabao was bold, holding a cup as a weapon in his hand, and carefully walked down the stairs, step by step.
Standing at the corner of the stairs, in that direction, Zhen Jiabao could see the light coming out of the basement, and he could also vaguely see the shadows of the people who were busy in the basement.
It doesn't look like a big man......
Zhen Jiabao muttered in his heart, then put the cup in his hand on the decorative table on the side, picked up a strange stone that was used as an ornament, and even tentatively weighed it.
……
"Why hasn't she come out yet? It's been a long time, and I guess there's something wrong. ”
A side door of the Zheng family manor is there, and Zheng Kaiyan in the car is looking out anxiously, complaining to his mother.
And Zheng Kaiyan's mother was also sitting in the co-pilot, with a worried expression on her face, and some regret.
"I knew that this kid was so unreliable, and my mother would do things for you by herself, so why should you be so worried now."
Zheng Kaiyan's mother suddenly spoke, causing Zheng Kaiyan to look at her impatiently.
"There is no need to say these words again, no matter what, Zheng Xiuyan is much younger than you, and his skills are more flexible."
Zheng Kaiyan still spoke after holding back for a long time, causing the expression on his mother's face to freeze for a moment, and then became a little resentful.
And his father, who was also sitting in the back of the car with Zheng Kaiyan, opened his mouth dissatisfied.
"I said a long time ago that you shouldn't be too ambitious, but now it's good, it's actually reduced to the point where you want to leave the Zheng family, if you can understand it earlier, compete well with that Zheng Jing, and then the Zheng family will not necessarily fall into the hands of the two of you."
Zheng Kaiyan's parents also just knew that he and the man in black jointly wanted to frame Helian Quan and Zheng Jing, and after listening to Zheng Kaiyan talk about it, they were taken to the car by Zheng Kaiyan and prepared to leave before they had time to blame and be surprised.
Zheng Kaiyan's mother glanced at him with some concern, although she faintly agreed with what her husband said, but she still thought of her son's mood and said: "Anyway, it's already like this, since the man in black has such a way, as long as we give him things like he did, our son will have a way out in the future." ”
"When the Zheng family is something, my son will personally create a family that is even more powerful than the Zheng family."
