Chapter 213 The Squirrel's Gift
The news brought by Gray Pigeon and Xiao Cangcang who went to the Yuanbaoshan old gold mine to inquire was nothing special.
The old gold mine has been completely buried.
There is no way to find the exit.
Moreover, because the Japanese were secretly mining and managing gold at the time, no other livelihoods developed around it.
They just secretly dug gold and transported it back to the country.
So few people know about it.
Some ordinary people went in to hunt. If they didn't encounter them, it would be fine. If they did, they would die.
After the mine was buried, a major mountain flood broke out, causing the river to change its course, and all traces were almost invisible.
The exploration team that Xiao Cangcang saw had left Yuanbao Mountain and headed north.
Despite this, Lu Qiage still wanted to go and see what was going on, but there was no rush.
At night, the tabby cat put its own small bag around its neck and ran out of the city along the wall like a puff of smoke.
Lu Qiaoge went for a walk with her grandmother. When they came back, Xiao Si told her, "Second sister, Huahua ran away with a small cloth bag hanging around her neck. I guess she must have gone to ask Brother Qin for some delicious food."
Lu Qiaoge didn't take it seriously. He looked at old photos with Old Lady Lu for a while and listened to her talk about her grandfather who had died and the cenotaph he had built.
For some reason, an idea popped up in Lu Qiaoge's mind, and he said, "Grandma, grandpa might not be dead. Maybe he has lost his memory and doesn't know who he is, so he never came back to see you and my dad..."
At this time, the grandparents were sitting in the yard, while Su Hui and Lu Qiaoling were in the house studying how to improve the taste of biscuits and corn tortillas.
Lu Zhiguo didn't come back from overtime.
Old Lu was drinking tea, chatting and bragging with a group of workers under a tree outside the gate.
Meng Xia went to visit Aunt Sun's house in the backyard and asked her to help introduce a partner to her third daughter.
After Xiao Si reported the movements of the tabby cat to Lu Qiaoge, he went to recite the text.
With the help of his second and third sisters, he has reviewed the courses for grades one to four, but his family still decided to let him start from grade three.
Anyway, I have just recovered from my illness and now is the time to stabilize. It would be better to have a more relaxed learning environment.
Xiao Si also thought this was a good idea, but he had never been to school before and was worried that he would not be able to keep up when school started, so he worked very hard.
At this time, the only sounds in the yard were Xiao Si's reading and the whispers of the grandparents and grandchildren.
Then Old Lady Lu heard Lu Qiaoge's sudden thought, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Lu Qiaoge looked at his grandmother in surprise.
Could it be that the old lady had already thought of her sudden idea?
As expected, Mrs. Lu said, "Do you think I haven't thought about this possibility? In fact, no one would think the worst. I was looking forward to it at the beginning, but as time went by, I no longer looked forward to it.
To be selfish and cruel, I still hope that he is gone. This will be good for your father, your fourth uncle and even you. As for your amnesia, I understand that.
There was a man named Dazhu in my hometown village. He fell off the roof and hit his head on a rock. He was rescued, but he had forgotten everything that happened before.
I always think, no matter what the possibility is, it is better for him to never show up. Do you understand what I mean, Qiao Ge?"
Lu Qiaoge understands so well.
She looked at Mrs. Lu with admiration.
As a grandmother, she doesn't have a strong presence at all. She often takes a nap in the yard. She helps with household chores when she can, but never interferes when she can't.
For Meng Xia, she is truly the best mother-in-law in the world.
So even though Meng Xia didn't like Su Hui at first, she was actually very nice to Su Hui.
Also, from the fact that she accompanied her granddaughter to the countryside, it can be seen that Mrs. Lu does not favor boys over girls.
This is an old man who lives a very clear life.
Lu Qiaoge immediately said, "Grandma, I understand. I won't mention it again."
What to make now depends on the ingredients.
No matter which possibility it is, it is not good news for the Lu family now.
Lu Qiaoge gave his grandmother a thumbs up.
She knows too well what an old lady who is unreasonable and favors boys over girls looks like.
This is what it means to have an old person in the family is like a treasure.
Just when Lu Qiage was about to go to bed, the tabby cat jumped in from the open rear window, and the small cloth bag hanging around its neck hit the windowsill with a clanging sound.
[Little fairy, please open it quickly. There is something good in my little cloth bag. It is a gift from Diandian.]
Diandian is the new name for the spotted squirrel.
It was given by a tabby cat.
Unexpectedly, the little squirrel gave her a gift.
Judging from the shape of the small cloth bag, it looks like two stones or something, or maybe two hickory nuts?
This is what Lu Qiaoge thought at the time.
I didn't expect that after opening it, there were two pieces of crystal clear amber inside.
The amber contains leaves that are clearly distinguished from each other.
Lu Qiaoge couldn't let it go. She couldn't help but ask the tabby cat curiously: "Do you know where Diandian got it from?"
[Diandian said that it picked it up in the mountains of Dabei Mountain, which was the territory of another squirrel. However, the squirrel was injured, so it stayed with it for a few days and found food for it. It left only after the squirrel recovered. Unexpectedly, it found two beautiful stones in a tree hole on the way. My little master, this is called amber. ]
Lu Qiaoge nodded.
This thing is more precious than gold.
Is the little squirrel worried that she has forgotten it?
It seems that I will have to go and see the little squirrel more often in the future.
These little animals are really smart.
No, there are also silly ones, such as the old black cat and the little yellow dog.
Huahua told them not to disturb her, and they really didn't dare to come.
——
On Sunday, Lu Qiage packed everything and waited for Qin Hengzhi to pick her up to go to Bai's house.
Meng Xia was spinning around nervously, looking at Lu Qiaoge from head to toe.
I was worried that if something went wrong, Qin Hengzhi's in-laws would laugh at me.
The main thing is that Lu Qiaoge is no different from before.
Lu Qiaoge said helplessly: "Mom, stop turning. I'll get confused if you keep turning."
Then Meng Xia stuffed another fifty yuan into Lu Qiaoge's pocket and said, "There's nothing worth buying at home. Go to the department store and buy some gifts. Don't let Hengzhi spend the money. I know you have money, but I have to give you this money."
Lu Qiage didn't refuse. Since it was his mother's gift, he would just accept it.
Meng Xia reminded him again: "I think Grandpa Hengzhi already knows about our family's conditions."
Lu Qiaoge understood what Meng Xia meant and said with a smile, "Mom, I will do what I can and will never brag about anything."
Although Lu Qiaoge said so, Meng Xia was still worried and couldn't help but sigh.
This is the disadvantage of having mismatched family backgrounds.
The gift you are going to get is very good. People will say that it must have been bought by Qin Hengzhi. Can her family afford such a good gift?
If what you get is too average, considering the other person's conditions are so good, I won't say I look down on him, but it's almost the same.
