The next day, when the sky was bright, Si Xi took the mechanical watch left by Zhang's father and Zhang's mother to identify the time, this watch was still Zhang's mother's dowry when Zhang's father and Zhang's mother got married, and now it was a few minutes to 5 o'clock, Sixi got up after lying on the bed for a while, and woke up Zhang Qing at the same time.

I always heard that children who have experienced family changes will become sensible, obedient and precocious, this sentence is vividly reflected in Zhang Qing, but it also makes Si Xi's heart sour, but there is no way, he always has to let him stand alone, on the one hand, Si Xi has to go out After all, there is no money now, on the other hand, she can't take care of all the things at school, so he can only have the ability to protect himself.

Zhang Qing got up quickly to wash, for fear that Zhang Qing would touch Sixi and lit a kerosene lamp, but the electricity in this era is too expensive, and it is not easy to use electricity at ordinary times.

After the two of them finished washing, Sixi took Zhang Qing to start a morning run, and ran directly to the school where Zhang Qing went to school. Usually he has to walk more than 1 and 2 hours to school, but this time he jogged for almost 1 hour when he couldn't stop in the middle of Sixi's request, and then ran back when he arrived at the school gate for a short rest.

On the first day of running, Zhang Qing and Sixi's chests were whirring like broken bellows, and at the same time, Sixi felt a little pain in his chest for the first time, which really overestimated this body function. Si Xi observed that Zhang Qing's whole face was red, and hurriedly asked him to adjust his breathing to get a little better. When he returned home, he boiled some porridge with the leftover rice at home, made some gnocchi, and cooked it together as breakfast, Zhang Qing was in a very good state, and after a while after breakfast, he began to practice boxing again.

The days passed like this for 2 days, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day when Zhang Qing went to school. Similarly, he came back from a run in the morning, and then had breakfast and Zhang Qing ran to school again.

In the morning, Sixi searched carefully in the room of Zhang's father and mother to see if he could find anything, but there was nothing. A little deflated and lay down on the bed, it was this action that made her find something, there was a metal reflection in the corner of the beam against the wall, because there was no window or anything like that in the room, Si Xi couldn't see the reflection when he came together, but as soon as he lay down, he could see it by the light of the door.

In the past two days, although the uncle and the grandmother of the Zhang family have not come to see their sister and brother, but they have not found anything, they will definitely take action, just in case Sixi still lock the courtyard door even if the yard is surrounded by a fence, and the door of the hall is also closed, well, the door of the room is also closed, and now the house is dark, at this time the electric light is turned on, and the dim light in the house makes people not see it really.

Sixi set up two benches to touch a wooden box, and the texture of the box is not very good, I took it, but I didn't take it! It seemed to be nailed to it, so he built a stool up and climbed up, and by the way, lit a kerosene lamp to add some light. The man climbed up and looked closer, only to find that the bottom of the wooden box outside was nailed to the beam, and there was a lock on it, and it could be seen that the lock was always open, at least not rusty. The light that Si Xi saw was reflected by the lock tab

She tried it next to each other with the key to the house, but she couldn't open it, and wondered if it was feasible to smash it, but finally gave up, it seems that she has to learn the skill of unlocking.

Si Xi did not Si Xi, went to find a small saw, along a corner of the cleats lightly sawed, she wanted to see how thick this wooden box was, how big the contents were, when this corner was sawed out a little gap, Si Xi used his fingertips to feel whether there was something attached to the outside wooden box, but did not feel it, but still did not dare to saw at will, or very carefully sawed, and finally took off this corner, through the light of the electric lamp and kerosene lamp, faintly saw a dark red carved box-like thing, After all, it was just a small corner that couldn't be seen, Si Xi stretched out another finger to determine the distance between the edge of the wooden box outside and the thing inside, about two fingers wide, so that Si Xi was much more relieved.

Picked up the saw, began to saw down the corner, it took a lot of effort to finally remove the wooden board of the lock, only to see the whole picture of the things inside, inside is a mahogany box, the carving on the outside of the box is very exquisite, there is a lock plate but not locked, Sixi carefully took down the box, and then put it on the bed with a dusty cloth to cover it, and then began to clean up the house. Then open all the doors, in this case, it feels unsafe to close the door to look at things, or open the door to see the outside of the heart.

Carry the box to the hall, the light here is cooler, because the view of living in the middle of the mountain is also better, now there are a few people working outside except for the field, there are basically no people on the road, for the sake of caution, Sixi took out the book of the owner and put it on the square table, and then she sat on the side facing the door and prepared to open the box, so that she can see anyone outside for the first time, and secondly, there are books to block it and it is convenient for her to hide things.

After sitting down, I opened the box and found that there were some food stamps and money inside, and a long box, the money was taken out and counted, there were 23 yuan, 8 cents and 6 cents, and the food stamps included meat stamps, rice stamps, and a cloth stamp. Put these things close to your body, the box is placed directly in the gap behind the portrait of Zhang's father and mother, the portrait is standing against the wall, so there is a little space behind it, just put the box.

At this time, Si Xi came to take a good look at this long box, about 20 cm long, 4-5 cm wide, the whole body is not carved, after opening, I saw a small and exquisite cyan jade fan lying inside, the jade piece and the jade piece are connected by gold wire, the fan handle is wrapped with hollow gold skin, the fan pendant is also a fan-shaped pendant with a cyan tassel, a total of 12 pieces of jade, there is no trace of carving on each piece of jade, it is a thin piece, but there is a pair of pine branches on each piece, the whole fan is open is a cliff pine branch map, staring at it for a long time, Si Xilao felt that there was a blue light flowing, but he didn't look at it. Based on this alone, this jade fan is not ordinary!

It is estimated that this is what the grandmother of the Zhang family wants, and the wealth is really moving. Since it was found by Si Xi, then you have to hide it now, there is no way to want this!

However, Si Xi is still very puzzled, Zhang's mother has this as a dowry, and the family must be solid, why has there been no mother's family in the memory of the owner for so many years, the owner did not mention this box during her illness, nor did she explain it to Zhang Qing alone, this is not like she wants to leave it to her children, but she is afraid that her children will find out, I don't know what kind of story there will be.
