Chapter 101: Alone (3)

There are three small compartments in the bamboo house, but all three compartments are covered with dust, and since they have not been inhabited for so many years, it is no longer clear what each of these three compartments is for.

But just know that it's for people.

According to the previous practice, Gu Yutang found that the compartment facing the door of the bamboo house was a small hall used to entertain guests, but the small hall was already dilapidated, the roof tiles had already been piled up, and the small hall was even more empty, except for some scratches on the beams, there was nothing else.

If they slept in the small hall tonight, and it suddenly rained in the middle of the night, wouldn't the two of them become soup chickens, and they wouldn't even have a place to hide?

There are two small cubicles on the left side of the small hall, the place is not big, but fortunately, there is a thatch on the ground, and there are some useful tables, chairs and benches found next to it, and the roof tiles are not as damaged as the small hall, if you are reluctant, you can stay here for a night.

The two cubicles were supposed to be one room, but they were separated by a wooden wall with wooden planks, which became two cubicles. Gu Yutang chose the small cubicle with the window, and Jiang Zhiming could only go to the compartment next to it, which was crowded and small, and was full of the smell of rats.

Seeing that Gu Yutang had already cleaned up the cubicle where he lived, he took two basins of water and cleaned those benches.

Tonight, she didn't want to sleep on the ground unless she had to, and although she lived in the house, there were fewer snakes, insects, rats and ants than outside, but who could guarantee that nothing else would come out of the house at night?

She had heard that snakes like to lay eggs in such dark and damp places, and if one accidentally sleeps on a snake's egg and attracts a group of snakes, it will really be bad luck to go home.

"What? Sweep your house so clean, and leave my room so perfunctory, my lady, are you implying that I will come to you tonight? Jiang Zhiming leaned against the crumbling wooden door of the cubicle and said to Gu Yutang, who was turning over the grass in the room.

"Jiang Zhiming, if you are not satisfied, turn left when you go out with a feather duster, I will put it in the corner, you can take it and sweep your house by yourself!" Gu Yutang continued to carefully turn over the grass pile on the ground, and now if she found a snake egg, she could still take precautions in advance.

"Gu Yutang, you are really a wolf-hearted thing! Your future husband's house is reluctant to help clean it, and I want to do it myself! You're turning over these haystacks here, don't you think there's gold here? Can you make a small fortune?" Jiang Zhiming said, entered Gu Yutang's compartment, and also helped her turn up the haystack.

Looking at Jiang Zhiming's appearance of seeing money, Gu Yutang raised his head and glanced at her. He continued to lower his head, "Jiang Zhiming, this is not a treasure hiding place, what gold can there be?" If you can find gold, I will grant you a request, and if you can't find gold, you must grant me a request. ”

"My wife, a gentleman said, the horse is difficult to chase, don't you regret it! If I find gold, you will grant me a request. Jiang Zhiming heard Gu Yutang say this, a slight evil smile appeared on his face, and he became more diligent in rummaging through the haystacks.

Finding gold here is easy for him! You must know that such an abandoned bamboo house is also a wonderful place to hide treasures.

Jiang Zhiming thought about it and began to tap the bricks on the ground with his fingers.

The big families hid the gold, nothing more than lifting the floor, and after laying a layer of gold, they re-covered the floor, only using batter and cement to cover the traces.

Gu Yutang couldn't help but shake his head when he saw Jiang Zhiming's confident appearance, even ghosts don't want to come to such a place.

Who will hide the gold here? Not to mention hiding, even if you drop one or two pieces of gold, it is impossible.

"Jiang Zhiming, you just wait to admit defeat and meet my request!" As soon as the words fell, Gu Yutang simply stopped looking for it, and watched Jiang Zhiming groping on the ground for a long time.

Jiang Zhiming has been searching in this small cubicle three or four times, but he has not found anything. Not to mention gold, even a copper has never been seen, could it be that he guessed wrong, this house is an abandoned house, and there is nothing hidden here.

Just as Jiang Zhiming stood up and was about to admit defeat to Gu Yutang, his left foot suddenly stepped on the air, as if he had broken a stone slab, and his left foot had already sunk into a small hole under the floor. Fortunately, the scratch of this stone slab is not sharp, and Jiang Zhiming's left foot was bent and he was not injured much.

After Gu Yutang helped Jiang Zhiming pull out his left foot, he saw that there was a small box carved in red lacquered wood in the small hole, and the top of the box was already covered with dust and was not locked.

After Gu Yutang took the box out, she found that the small box that didn't look big was actually heavy, if it weren't for Jiang Zhiming helping her with some strength on the side, she almost didn't take the box out.

After putting the box on the ground, Gu Yutang took a rag and wiped the dust on the box, only to find that the box in front of him was made by the old Sheng family of Chengjiang Mansion.

It's just that the things made by the old Sheng family are only famous in Chengjiang Mansion, why did this box suddenly appear here? What's going on?

Before Gu Yutang had time to think, Jiang Zhiming had already opened the box quickly, and as soon as he opened the box, he found that it was full of hand ornaments with gold and jade, and the jade was still a rare Hetian jade in recent years. There are also a few red gold glazed hairpins, the weight of red gold is very large, and it doesn't look like an ordinary product. There is also a set of ruby heads and a set of agate heads, which are rare good things.

The bottom of the box is also covered with a layer of gold ingots, and the weight is not light. There are so many things in this box, so I can't complain that Gu Yutang didn't pick up the box even after using all his strength.

"I said there must be gold in this house, and so much more, and now you can believe it?" Jiang Zhiming said, squatted down, picked and chose in the box for a long time, and finally chose the butterfly hairpin of the right jasper, put it on the side of Gu Yutang's bun and stroked it for a long time, and then gently inserted it for her.

"This pair of jasper butterfly hairpins is very suitable for you, since I found this box, I will give you all these things! Make a small fortune! With that, Jiang Zhiming closed the lid of the box and put it on the wooden chair next to him.

"There is no bronze mirror in this room, so I chose such a beautiful jasper butterfly hairpin for you, and you can't see it yourself. Why don't I go out to the creek and scoop some water with a scoop, and you can take a closer look. As soon as the words fell, Jiang Zhiming was about to go out, but was stopped by Gu Yutang.

Gu Yutang took down the jasper butterfly hairpin that Jiang Zhiming had inserted for himself and put it in Jiang Zhiming's hand, "It's the so-called merit and no luck, not to mention this kind of thing from an unknown source, I can't ask for it." If you go and put it back in its place, maybe it was put by the person who lived here, but it was not taken out, and if I took it, would I not become a thief?"

"I really didn't see the wrong person, my wife is really high! We can't ask for this kind of thing from unknown sources. But you promised me that if I found gold, you would grant me a request, and now it is time for me to make a request. Jiang Zhiming said, put the pair of jasper butterfly hairpins that Gu Yutang stuffed into his hands back into the box, and sat on the straw mat.

"Say it! What are your requirements? As long as you don't have any strange requests, I'll do the rest. Gu Yutang didn't want to spend any more time here with Jiang Zhiming, so he sat on the wooden chair next to him and said.

"My wife, what you said is true? The rest should be mine?" Jiang Zhiming said as he spoke, revealing Fang Cai's evil smile again.

Gu Yutang looked at Jiang Zhiming's ill-intentioned appearance, thinking that he had some bad idea in his heart, so he quickly stood up, picked up a firewood stick next to him, and said with a smile: "Jiang Zhiming, if you dare to have any bad ideas in your heart, this firewood stick in my hand will not let you go." ”

As soon as Jiang Zhiming heard Gu Yutang say that he wouldn't know him, he couldn't help laughing at that time, and said, "Madam, you don't have four taels of flesh, are you sure I didn't let you go?" Your husband will definitely not have any bad ideas in his heart! ”
