Chapter 296: Silk Cloth
Huo Yan asked Lin Xi, did Zhuang invite her to be the head of the reunion banquet?
Lin Xi sighed in his heart, not because he didn't receive a solemn invitation, but because he was worried that his grandparents and parents would be too disappointed by then?
Although Lin Xi still doesn't know what is going on with this head beauty? But from Huo Yan's excitement, it can be analyzed that this must be solemn or a big drama staged by Mei Xuexiang, and the girls in Clear Water Bay are proud to be the beauties in charge.
Solemnly becoming a representative of the above, Lin Xi is not surprised.
Mei Hui became the committee member above, and Lin Xi was not surprised.
Mei Xuexiang also wanted to stage a big drama in Clear Water Bay, and Lin Xi felt a little strange.
Strange why Mei Xuexiang wants to stage one nonsensical drama after another in Clear Water Bay? Does it have something to do with the thing in your hand? Something to do with ancient tombs?
The thing in Lin Xi's hand was not stolen by herself from the Mei family's courtyard, but Lin Xizhen secretly stuffed it to her, and when she was stuffed with it, Lin Xizhen told her that she must take good care of it, don't open it easily, and don't let anyone know, including Zhuang Su.
At that time, Mei Yuan was still suffering in the backyard, and Mei Xuexiang had not yet returned to the identity of Miss Mei.
Later, the Mei family was reunited, and Lin Xizhen privately asked Lin Xi to return the thing many times.
Lin Xi saw that Lin Xizhen was so mysterious, especially that even Zhuang Su couldn't let him know, so he lied and said, I don't know where to lose such a small thing?
That thing was indeed not big, smaller than a normal wallet, and Lin Xi could hold it loosely in his hand. It is made of brass, similar to today's phone cases, but much thinner than phone cases, half the thickness of ordinary mobile phones.
Lin Xizhen should not care about this brass box, but the contents inside.
Lin Xi hasn't opened the brass box yet, and he doesn't know how to open it? But I firmly believe that there must be a big secret hidden in it, about the Mei family.
Last time, Mei Xuexiang led several women of the Mei family to Lin Xi's house to ask for guilt, Lin Xi said that she had seen Mei Xuexiang in the small courtyard of the Mei family an object stuffed in the crack of the wall, Mei Xuexiang was immediately deflated, and Lin Xi thought of this brass locket.
Lin Xi saw Mei Xuexiang's objects stuffed in the cracks of the wall in the courtyard of Mei's house, purely by accident, and even more unintentionally.
That day, Lin Xizhen took Lin Xi to the backyard to learn embroidery from Mei Yuan, of course, at that time, Lin Xizhen and Lin Xi didn't know that Mei Yuan was the queen of the Mei family. Since Mei Yuan's consciousness had not fully recovered to a stable state at that time, she had seizures from time to time, and Lin Xi's embroidery could only be determined according to her mental state.
Not long after Lin Xi threaded the needle and thread that day, Mei Yuan fell ill, and her mouth was babbling, and her whole body was convulsed. Lin Xizhen turned around and ran, ignoring the safety of Meiyuan and Lin Xi.
Lin Xi usually looks weak and weak, but she is very strong in her heart, when she saw Mei Yuan sick, she first gave first aid to Mei Yuan according to the method taught by Zhuang Su, pinched people, and rubbed her temples......
After Mei Yuan's body stopped twitching, Lin Xi carried her to bed.
This bed was left by the ancestors of the Mei family, a typical carved step bed.
The pull-out bed, also known as the eight-step bed, is the largest bed in traditional furniture.
The Babu bed is divided into two categories: "big bed" and "cool bed" in "Luban Jingjiang Family Background", that is, it is classified according to the complexity and simplicity of bed production.
The carved step bed left by the ancestors of the Mei family belongs to the big bed, not to mention the fine workmanship, and the material is still the best old red sandalwood wood.
The bed of this carved step bed is huge, with a roll canopy roof on it, a step below, and a corridor composed of carved pillars, hanging and eaves in front of it. On both sides of the corridor are two spaces, where small tables, benches, suitcases, toilets, lamps and other objects can be placed. In the middle of the bed, leave a bed door where you can get up and down.
When Lin Xi hugged the plum garden and went to bed, he accidentally ran into a fence.
I don't know if it's because of the age or because I often climb the fence when the plum garden has a problem, and the fence falls to the ground.
After Lin Xi covered the plum garden with a quilt, he bent down to pick up the fence. But because the fence fell on the inside of the bed, Lin Xi's hands couldn't reach it, so he had to climb in to pick it up.
When Lin Xi picked up the fence and climbed out, a brick at the foot of the wall snapped her hand, and it hurt a little, so she slapped the brick with her hand angrily, and the brick bounced out.
Lin Xi was startled at first, shook his head to stabilize his mind, then put down the fence, picked up the brick and wanted to re-stuff it into the wall, but he didn't stuff it several times, and it seemed that there was an object inside that was against the brick.
Lin Xi put down the bricks, picked up the fence and wanted to climb out, but after thinking about it for a while, he decided to stuff the bricks into the wall. So he lowered the fence and reached into the wall where the bricks had fallen, trying to feel what was holding the bricks.
It stands to reason that the brick should be able to be stuffed in as it is, and it is impossible for anything to resist it, unless the brick was originally empty, and after it was photographed by Lin Xi, there were objects in it that fell and fell against the original brick.
Well? Sure enough, there are objects, what? Soft and smooth......
Lin Xi stretched out his hand and wanted to take it out, worried that he had accidentally damaged the object, but he really wanted to see what it was?
Although Lin Xi didn't know that this was the Mei family's courtyard at that time, he knew that Lin Xizhen was not an ordinary person, and this courtyard was not an ordinary courtyard.
After hesitating for a while, Lin Xi still took out the object. When I looked closer, I saw that it was a piece of silk cloth.
This piece of silk cloth looks like a good fabric, it is clumped, and it is a little damp, so when Lin Xi first touched it, it felt a little soft and smooth.
Lin Xi wanted to stuff the silk cloth back into the crack in the wall, but as soon as he let go of his hand, the silk cloth automatically dispersed.
Huh, there's a word on it?
Lin Xi looked closely, and the silk cloth was densely covered with words.
The font is Junxiu's small letters, which record some information about the Mei family.
Behind the handsome Xiaokai, there was a row of particularly eye-catching red wild grass, which Lin Xi did not fully recognize, but the word "death" and the word "kill" made Lin Xi hurriedly stuff the silk cloth into a ball and stuff it into the crack in the wall, and then stuffed it into the brick that popped out.
For some reason, the brick was tucked in intact this time, just like it was before it popped out.
Lin Xi grabbed the fence of the stepping bed and climbed out of the bottom of the bed, took a big deep breath, got on the fence, walked out of the room, and walked out of the backyard.
Lin Xizhen asked Lin Xi what he was doing in the backyard for so long? Lin Xi calmly asked Lin Xizhen: I can't let her lie on the ground, right?
Lin Xizhen couldn't ask any more and warned Lin Xi not to tamper with anything in the courtyard, especially the backyard.
Lin Xi nodded, thinking to himself, if you hadn't dragged me here, I wouldn't have been able to enter this small courtyard for half a step!
What the Mei family? What is the Mei family's courtyard?
Lin Xi already knew from that piece of silk cloth that this small courtyard belonged to the Mei family, the Mei family and Qingshuiwan were inextricably linked, and the Mei family had ulterior secrets, especially that Mr. Mei and that Miss Mei......
Later, when Lin Xi learned some information about Mr. Mei and learned that Miss Mei was the solemn grandmother, he was not only panicked, but also panicked.
Lin Xi originally wanted to tell Zhuang Zhuang the secret, but she still chose to find Zhuang Su privately to tell the secret on the piece of silk cloth and the thing that Lin Xizhen gave her.
Zhuang Su was stunned for more than half an hour before he slowly came to his senses, and said to Lin Xi: "You know as long as you know, others don't need to know, in fact, I don't need to know, I know and forget immediately." You just hide that thing, I don't have to look at it, I don't need to look at it, I don't want to see it, I don't have the right to see it. ”
After Lin Xi went home and put down the vegetables that she had just cut from the ground, she went to the original broken stone house alone, dug out the small brass box from under the persimmon tree, and she wanted to bury it in another place.
