Zhuo Jiu quickly found the place where the landlord's aunt said that the wine was hidden.

In the corner of the kitchen, there is a small hidden door that opens to the so-called wine cellar.

When you enter the wine cellar, you will immediately see two rows of eye-catching red wine cabinets, which are densely packed with all kinds of red wines. At first glance, most of them were the kind that even Zhuo Jiu couldn't name.

The only bottles he recognized were all top-notch red wines...... At that time, when he was still working in a five-star hotel, these wines were basically only used when entertaining VIPs.

As for why Zhuo Jiu knew?

Because there are only very few occasions when he needs to come forward in person to introduce the dishes to those guests...... And the wine used in those banquets was the bottle he saw now......

As for liquor, it is stored more secretly.

At the end of the cellar, there is a small door, and behind that small door is an even more gloomy room.

As soon as he stepped in, Zhuo Jiu felt an explosion of earthy fragrance coming from the surface. As far as the eye can see, many bottles and cans are neatly stored here. Most of them were in clay jars of various shapes, so Zhuo Jiu couldn't name them...... As for the common ones on the market, there are a lot of Moutai stored on the shelves on the side, including the kind that is extremely rare just by looking at the outer packaging.

Zhuo Jiu instantly felt that his three views began to crumble: who is this landlady...... The wine in this cellar alone may be worth the entire net worth of most people.

He didn't think the landlady was an alcoholic...... It's just what he sees in front of him, even if Zhuo Jiu doesn't understand it very well, he can know that it must be a person who understands wine to make it.

"Perhaps...... There is another possibility. Zhuo Jiu's brows furrowed.

The value of this cellar was far higher than he had imagined, and even terrifying. So much so that these wines, like the spices in the kitchen, are just included...... She just wanted the integrity of the wine cellar, so she thoughtlessly stuffed all kinds of wine into it, and it had to be good wine.

- Sometimes, the taste of the rich is a bit indescribable.

Although he was really a little unable to pick on it, Zhuo Jiu finally picked up two bottles of Moutai casually and prepared to leave...... These are also the only two bottles of wine that he can judge the value of.

The price is also very expensive.

The others, not to mention their bells and whistles, just the kind of unapproachable momentum that they exude around them is enough to make Zhuo Jiu retreat.

However, this also made Zhuo Jiu more curious about the landlady.

Everything he saw today seemed to challenge his cognition, and what the landlady said yesterday...... Zhuo Jiu is not a person without self-knowledge, but he really can't understand what merits he has that can be valued by the landlady.

Although, at a moment, he will also have expectations, but it does not mean that he is not sober.

"So...... What exactly does she mean? Looking at everything in front of him, Zhuo Jiu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

The long corridor is endless. The dim lights flickered, reflecting the dim cellar in an extremely messy way, and also casting a veil of mystery on everything in front of him.

"But what's at the end of this cellar?"

Such a thought came to his mind for no reason, and he couldn't help but hesitate a little when he looked at the darkness in the distance...... He always felt as if something was calling to him at the end.

He was a little afraid to move forward.

After all, the landlord and aunt just asked her to come and get the wine...... If he sees something that he shouldn't see, and happens to be caught at that time, then even if he Zhuo Jiu has a hundred mouths, he can't defend himself.

"Why don't you go further? Anyway, it's in the wine cellar, even if it's really asked...... I'm just taking the wine. ”

"Hmm...... That's it! ”

Thinking through everything, he cautiously began to move forward.

The cellar was much bigger than he had imagined. And with his gradual deepening, the buried on both sides have also become larger and larger wine barrels, and even wine vats. Even though it was well sealed, the air could still smell the faint aroma of wine...... The distant aroma obviously can't be an ordinary liquor.

Zhuo Jiu's heart couldn't help but become more and more magnificent...... The value of this wine cellar may be far more terrifying than he expected!

After groping all the way, he finally came to the end of this wine cellar.

The lights began to dim and dim, and it was almost impossible to see everything around them, except for the huge wine vats, tightly buried on both sides.

Zhuo Jiu's face showed a hint of relief, "Probably, I think too much!" ”

He didn't know what he was expecting, he just followed his heart all the way to get here.

"That's not right!"

In the dark, it seems that you can feel a breeze blowing.

Following the direction of the wind, on the wall at the end of the corridor, there seems to be something like a handle. It's just that the passage is too dim, and the color of the handle is almost the same as the surrounding environment, so he didn't notice it for a while.

He began to hesitate again...... Although he felt that this seemed a little bad, he really couldn't suppress the trend in his heart, especially the burst of curiosity.

"This is probably also a wine cellar, since the landlady asked me to come and get the wine, even if I open this door, there should be no problem, right?"

"What's more, if this room really stores something precious, it should be locked too! If it's not locked, it should be ...... Default is fine, right? ”

Reluctantly finding a reasonable reason for himself, Zhuo Jiu trembled and slowly reached for the handle of the door......

With a "creak", the door opened.

The shrill sound suddenly began to echo in the dark cellar, and it couldn't help but be a little creepy.

Zhuo Jiu turned around cautiously, there was still a black hole behind him, and no one came.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and cautiously stepped into the room.

This is not a very large room, estimated to be only a dozen square meters at most. And such a small room, still in such a private corner, is simply out of place with the landlady's big house.

It's just that after Zhuo Jiu stepped into this room, what he felt was an inexplicable warmth.

The orange light made everything look so warm, and the room was full of exquisite purchases, and the shelves were full of all kinds of items.

- In reality, Zhuo Jiu has seen such a room.

I remember that when he was still working as a cook, he would occasionally take the team outside to take on some private work. At that time, a good boss once invited Zhuo Jiu to cook a family banquet in his villa to entertain guests. Therefore, Zhuo Jiu also naturally visited the man's mansion.

I remember that there was such a room in the man's house at that time, which was also full of all kinds of cabinets.

And those cabinets are full of all kinds of jewelry and luxury goods...... It doesn't have to be used, but more likely it is used to show off or socialize.

Therefore, these rooms basically occupy a better position in the house, and the landlady's room ......

Zhuo Jiu's doubts were even greater, but he still couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and walked in step by step.

Countless spotlights are planned on the dome, quietly shining on the things on the shelves, illuminating those objects extraordinarily. But when Zhuo Jiu saw those things clearly, his expression froze there instantly...... Because the things that are precious and stored in this secret room are really those ordinary objects that can be seen everywhere in life.

At first glance, there are very cheap brooches, some certificates and trophies, and even some very old clothes......

Everything was so different from what he had originally thought.

Zhuo Jiu let out a long breath, and faintly felt a burst of distress.

In his understanding, it seems that only things such as money and luxury goods can be called precious things, worthy of his care and treasure; And for the landlady, since money is just a number, what she cherishes is ...... Maybe it's the indelible memories in front of you.

Zhuo Jiu seemed to be able to see her life.

She was so careful to rejoice at an insignificant thing, and treasured her past in this corner that no one could touch.

Zhuo Jiu seemed to know her for the first time.

How lonely does a person have to be to hide all his memories in this no-man's corner.

Zhuo Jiu's hand gently brushed over one of the photo albums...... There was no dust and everything was so clean.

- Obviously, she must have taken care of it a lot, and she would never leave it to anyone.

Compared with the full shelves on both sides, the one facing the door is a bit empty.

This couldn't help but make Zhuo Jiu a little curious.

Out of curiosity, he cautiously stepped forward, only to find that there were only three things on the shelf.

One is a bracelet that is worth a lot of money at first glance...... He played with skewers, so he could roughly judge the value of the item.

Zhuo Jiu couldn't help but be a little interested.

Because it was the first thing he saw in this room that seemed to be more valuable. It's just that after careful inspection, he found that the bracelet seemed to have traces of damage, or it was completely broken in two, but because the condition was good enough and the room was dark, he didn't see much for a while.

It's just that Zhuo Jiu was a little stunned...... Because he always felt that this bracelet was a bit familiar.

Next to the bracelet is a handbag, at first glance it looks like a common road goods on the market, but, after a closer look, Zhuo Jiu was surprised to find that this handbag seems to be really a big road goods, not only the stitches are extremely messy, but even the threads have already appeared.

What's more, there is no brand-name logo on this bag...... Just don't know why this bag is here?

Similarly, Zhuo Jiu seems to have a little impression of this bag.

Next to the bag, there is a photo frame covered there, and the border of the photo frame has long been covered with traces of friction, and even many places have already been rubbed and shiny......

Zhuo Jiu hesitated.

He had a vague feeling that he could figure everything out through this frame, but it was time for him to ...... But he was timid.

To be honest, what he's doing now is a bit arrogant...... His intellect also told him that he could not continue.

Especially this kind of snooping into people's hearts...... Really, it's already crossed the line.
