Chapter 162 The Disappearing Jade



The barefoot doctor in the village had limited medical skills and said that Yang's illness seemed to be caused by fright and was most likely possessed by evil spirits.

The Yang family saw that this man was unreliable and decided that it would be better to find a witch doctor instead of him, as at least he was a professional match.

Yang Wan knew that it was not right for her to leave her grandmother behind and run away alone, so she took out twenty cents from her private money and asked her father to go to the county town to invite Doctor Zhou.

Doctor Zhou is the old doctor who once treated Qian Ning and was later held hostage by Han Zeyu. He is a kind-hearted and benevolent doctor, a rare good doctor.

At noon, Doctor Zhou rushed to the Yang family. After taking the pulse of the grandfather and grandson respectively, he prescribed two doses of fever-reducing and tranquilizing decoctions, as well as seven doses of medicine to prevent stroke.

The Yang family was shocked. The old lady just broke her arm or leg, so how could she have a stroke?

Doctor Zhou sighed and said, "She's weak and slurred, which are the precursors to a stroke. Add to that her previous fracture and second fall. Alas, the elderly are most afraid of falls."

This time, Yang was so frightened that she couldn't speak clearly. She asked with a choked voice, "Can it be cured?"

Yang had lived in Qingshan County for many years and had heard of Doctor Zhou's name. She knew that he was an excellent doctor, so she still held great hope.

Unfortunately, Doctor Zhou could only shake his head helplessly: "In the future, be less angry, be careful not to be frightened, eat a light diet, and keep a good mood. Alas, it's not easy to deal with. Anyway, let's just take precautions first!"

Yang only picked out the parts she wanted to hear. Since Doctor Zhou said it could be prevented, she had to rest well.

As for Liang Qinghe's ghost, she felt that it would not cause trouble for her again.

Last night she confessed everything she needed to confess, except for the treasures she had hidden away.

As for the box of treasures, she had to hurry and let her son dig out the things.

A stroke is too dangerous. If she wants to maintain her health, she will have to spend money. Don’t worry about the ghost girl’s revenge and her descendants. She has to take care of her own life first.

The Liang family has three pieces of jade, two of which are already in Han Zeyu's hands. Their next goal is to find the remaining piece.

The two of them decided to go to their grandparents' graves to pay their respects and look for clues at the same time.

But when the two of them came to sweep the grave with their belongings, Han Zeyu used his special abilities to survey the situation around the coffin, and his face suddenly changed. The grave had been disturbed.

When Su Shien saw Yu Ge'er's expression, he knew that something had changed. It seemed that the thing they were most worried about had happened.

Fortunately, the coffin was not pried open. The jade must have been found somewhere outside the coffin by someone looking for something.

What else could it be? Could it be that the gravedigger suddenly had a change of heart?

The couple rushed back to Qingshan County. Su Shinian was quite surprised and asked them if there was anything wrong.

Su Shien asked her elder sister if she knew where the Liang family's old house was?

Su Shinian knew about it, but in her memory, it was just a small yard.

Han Zeyu and the other man rushed to the old house without stopping and found that the weeds inside were more than half a person's height. It was obvious that no one had cleaned it up for three or four years.

After a careful search, Han Zeyu found that there were signs of rummaging here. Even if there was something there, someone must have gotten there first.

But just as the two were about to leave, Han Zeyu suddenly changed direction and walked straight towards the jujube tree in the southeast corner of the yard.

A moment later, Han Zeyu held a locked box in his hand, which was wrapped in three layers of tarpaulin and leather. Even a fool could see that the things inside were very important.

There was no need to open the box. Even through the layers of wrapping, Han Zeyu could still smell the fragrance of money.

The items were taken away, the place was restored, and the experts who eliminated the traces took action again to ensure that no one could find any flaws.

With the unexpected gain, Han Zeyu returned home triumphantly with the spoils. His only regret was that he failed to find the third piece of jade.

Han Zeyu almost laughed out loud when he was counting the things. He knew at a glance who had hidden these things. The nanny had really made things worse.

Su Shien's face looked unhappy. Although these stolen goods returned to his hands in other ways, it still could not change the fact that Yang had embezzled money.

He said that he was the eldest son of the Su family, so why was he so short of money? It turned out that someone was eyeing his pitiful monthly allowance.

It's really true that greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant. She took the things and then took the money. This old lady is really greedy.

Han Zeyu was not discouraged and wanted to check whether Grandpa Liang had acquired any other property when he was alive.

Su Shien's vacation is over, and if he doesn't go back, he will probably be punished.

Su Shien wrote a leave request solemnly with his brush.

Han Zeyu's eyes widened. "Can you renew your leave contract?" He was truly worthy of being her husband. His face was getting thicker and thicker.

Su Shien modestly said that it was not thick enough and he would continue to work hard in the future.

Tiezhu first rode back at full speed to deliver the letter, which said that the wet nurse was seriously ill and needed to return to her hometown to recuperate.

The old man has taken care of him for many years, and now that they are about to part, he is extremely reluctant to let him go, so he decided to send him back home personally, settle him down, and then return to the academy to continue his studies. He hopes that all teachers will forgive him. He has let down the teachers' cultivation and the dean's expectations.

Although the letter was written in plain language, it was filled with deep guilt between the lines.

The teacher who received the letter thought that this was a good child who knew etiquette, valued friendship, and understood filial piety.

Han Zeyu applauded. With his scheming, calculating and literary talent, his husband's path as a hypocrite was becoming smoother and smoother.

Regardless of whether the academy agrees or not, in Su Shien's heart, he now has the right to extend his vacation.

Han Zeyu went to Qingshan County Government Office to look for his old friend.

The uncle felt a headache when he saw his playful smile. He had never seen such a willful boy.

While Han Zeyu was arguing with the uncle, Su Shien noticed a row of skinny people squatting at the foot of the wall.

With thin limbs, messy hair, protruding bellies, and pale and skinny faces, they look like refugees no matter how you look at them.

The uncle was already irritable, and Han Zeyu was giving him a headache. When he heard what Su Xiucai said, he became even more upset.

Han Zeyu also looked at those people and asked in confusion, "There's no war, so where did the refugees come from?"

The uncle sighed and said, "Wars don't happen often, but natural disasters happen every year. They fled here because their crops were destroyed by the flood."

Those who leave their hometown are all pitiful people. Han Zeyu was lamenting that all living beings suffer when he heard the voice of a woman scolding a child from the back court.

"Don't drink! Don't drink! I'm going to throw up! Don't you want to live?"

The uncle's face changed when he heard this, and he hurried to the back hall...
