Chapter 48: Did I really miss out?

Yu Xiangwan is in a good mood today and her hands are itching, so she plans to make a sweet and sour fish!

"Cut it with flower knives, deep-fry it, bend the fish, thicken it with starch..."

Yu Xiangwan talked to himself.

When the dish was ready, she felt very quiet around her for some reason.

“Ahem.

Yu Xiangwan looked up and saw that it was Lu Yingzheng.

"When did you come back?" she asked in surprise.

"It's been a while since I came back." Lu Yingzheng's eyes fell on the sweet and sour fish with red sauce.

[As expected, he likes to eat fish. He looks at fish as soon as he comes back. 】

Yu Xiangwan explained: "This is called sweet and sour fish. I wonder if you have ever eaten it. Try it?"

Lu Yingzheng took the dish of fish naturally and said, "I've heard about it from my comrades, but I've never eaten it."

In fact, he seldom eats at state-owned hotels.

Yu Xiangwan smiled and said, "Then eat more later."

[After all, you contributed to this fish, so I allow you to eat more! ]

Lu Yingzheng laughed and said, "Let's eat."

Whatever, let’s eat as much as we want! The second half of the month has its own way of life.

The sweet and sour fish was indeed delicious. Yu Xiangwan couldn’t stop eating after taking the first bite.

She wondered, "Normally at this time, Yang's family's Wudesheng should be very lively."

Yu Xiangwan has gotten used to it, it's almost like an alarm clock.

There are five children next door, and there are always all kinds of noises when they eat.

Lu Yingzheng said calmly: "Maybe something happened tonight. Kids are different every day."

The fact is, Wu Sheng shouted "It smells good" and then there was no sound.

These guys have a good sense of propriety.

He will take them fishing tomorrow.

Yu Xiangwan was so focused on cooking that she had no idea what was really going on.

Lu Yingzheng seemed to be in a good mood today, and he even had the mind to ask her what she bought in town.

Yu Xiangwan pointed to a pile of books in the living room and said, "I bought some daily necessities, and mainly this."

[I don’t know if Lu Yingzheng, the boss, would say that I’m wasting money.]

Lu Yingzheng only glanced at it and said, "I'll make a cabinet someday, lock it, and put it in my room. If you want to see it, just go in and get it."

He explained: "Someone from the main house is coming, so it's not good to show it in public."

Yu Xiangwan also agreed.

It's better to be careful.

She, Lu Yingzheng, and Xiao Xiao moved the books to Lu Yingzheng's room.

Lu Yingzheng looked at the two girls and said helplessly, "I can do it on my own."

Yu Xiangwan ignored him: "We can do that too."

[No matter how strong you are, you still have to move it twice. It would be great if we could move it all at once. ]

Lu Yingzheng: Yes, yes, yes, you are right.

It was the first time that Yu Xiangwan entered Lu Yingzheng's room.

The room was as clean as the others.

The quilt is still as lump-of-wood as ever.

Yu Xiangwan was convinced.

She bent down and said, "Put it here."

Accidentally, the book on top tilted, so she picked it up and tried to put it back in place.

Suddenly, she exclaimed.

Lu Yingzheng turned his head.

Yu Xiangwan opened the book cover.

What makes this book different from other books is that it is covered with a gray cover.

When Yu Xiangwan just took the book, he felt a little uncomfortable.

"How can I feel something?"

To confirm, Yu Xiangwan touched the cover of the book carefully.

She turned around excitedly: "There really is something!"

Lu Yingzheng stretched out his hand.

Yu Xiangwan handed it over.

Lu Yingzheng touched it, nodded, and returned the book to Yu Xiangwan: "Indeed, do you want to open it and take a look?"

Yu Xiangwan nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

【Could it be a treasure? 】

[Ahhh, am I going to be rich? Am I going to become rich overnight and reach the pinnacle of life? ]

Yu Xiangwan's cheeks turned slightly red with excitement.

She walked to the main hall holding the book solemnly.

Lu Yingzheng did not do it for her, but handed her the scissors.

Yu Xiangwan carefully opened the book cover, and like the explosion-proof experts in TV dramas, her eyes were so focused that she almost blinked.

Xiao Xiao suddenly became nervous for some reason and held his breath to calm himself.

Lu Yingzheng looked at the book cover, but unconsciously shifted his gaze to Yu Xiangwan's hands, face, and her eyes.

Her eyes looked misty under the light, yet very focused and serious.

He thought that only gold, silver and treasures could have such an attraction to her.

Yu Xiangwan finally opened the book cover.

She exclaimed happily: "It's a gold ring!"

【Old swan, I finally found the treasure! 】

Yu Xiangwan fulfilled his wish of picking up leaks, and he felt refreshed and happy.

She examined the gold ring in her hand lovingly.

After looking at it for a long time, he showed the ring to Xiao Xiao and Lu Yingzheng.

She flipped through the book.

"Hey, there's a name on it!"

Yu Xiangwan said: "This book is a textbook for the first grade of junior high school, and it says - Xu Yang."

Lu Yingzheng walked over, stood behind Yu Xiangwan, and looked over Yu Xiangwan's shoulder. There was indeed this name.

Yu Xiangwan turned to look at Lu Yingzheng, her biggest connection here.

"Do you know this man?"

Yu Xiangwan suddenly turned his head, and Lu Yingzheng just lowered his head. The distance between the two faces suddenly shortened because of this action.

Lu Yingzheng took a step back without making a sound and shook his head: "There are so many people in the county, but I don't know anyone like this."

Yu Xiangwan frowned.

"There is no address in this book. How can we find this person, the owner of the ring?"

She became distressed.

When Lu Yingzheng heard this, he was surprised: "You want to return it?"

Didn’t she always say that she wanted to pick up the biggest leaks?

"If I can find the owner, I will definitely return it." Yu Xiangwan glanced at him.

[Although I often say I want to look for treasure, I am looking for treasure that has no owner. This one clearly has a name on it.]

Yu Xiangwan was also helpless.

She couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart.

【Growing up under the red flag, singing "I picked up a penny on the side of the road and gave it to the policeman."】

[It's not easy to find a loophole, and it's a loophole with clues. ]

【How can I feel at ease claiming it as my own? 】

[Forget it, it’s just a gold ring. I’ll earn money and buy it myself in the future.]

[I don’t know if I can find the person. What if he is not from the county? Besides, this name is so common, it’s like finding a needle in a haystack.]

【Forget it, take your time. 】

[Anyway, I'll ask around next time I go to the county.]

Lu Yingzheng looked over.

The girl's conflicted look fell into his eyes.

But this makes her truly lovely.

She will be greedy, want to be smart, will be reluctant to give up, and then, will convince herself what is the right thing to do.

Her true nature is kindness.

Lu Yingzheng felt that with Yu Xiangwan like this, he could rest assured and not worry about her doing anything bad.

Of course, long-term observation is best.

Seeing Lu Yingzheng staring at her for so long, Yu Xiangwan put the ring back into the book cover.

"You saw it too. I didn't take it. I rewrapped the book cover. You are my witness. Do you understand?"

As she spoke, she carefully put the things back.

Lu Yingzheng's eyes were gentle, and he said softly, "Well, I'll testify."
