Xia Ziheng's voice became much higher with anger, and Xia Zichen quickly covered his mouth.
"Zi Chen, what do you think we should do?" Xia Ziheng asked hurriedly.
"Keep a close eye on them. Don't let them have the chance to act alone. Keep an eye on them. When the time comes to divide up grandpa and grandma's inheritance, it'll be the captain who'll make the decision."
"Then it will be divided equally between our first and second houses. Our second house has three sons: you, me, and Zihao. The first house has the eldest brother, the second brother, the fifth brother, and the seventh brother, so they have four sons."
"The two of us will definitely get more than the eldest and second brothers, so we have to be careful. Only one of us can sleep and only one of us can go to the bathroom. No matter what, we can't let them get away with anything."
Xia Ziheng nodded firmly.
"Okay, Zichen, I'll listen to you. Whatever you say is what I'll do."
Xia Zichen nodded.
The two went to the bathroom together. After coming back, Xia Ziheng followed Tian Guihua to work outside. He also walked around the mourning hall from time to time.
Xia Zichen went back to his room to catch up on his sleep. He lay down on the kang and fell asleep immediately. He didn't have any extra time to waste.
Xia Zixuan and Xia Zirui knelt obediently in the mourning hall, waiting for dark.
Small courtyard.
After Xia Weian and Song Qingyun returned, Song Qingyun immediately asked Xia Weian what had happened.
Xia Weian told Song Qingyun about how he and Shen Weidong met Xiao Jiang.
"He actually used a knife?" Song Qingyun exclaimed in surprise.
She really didn't expect that Xiao Jiang was so fierce. He looked quiet and spoke politely. It was true that you can't judge a book by its cover.
"Your injury?" Song Qingyun said as he stretched out his hand to check Xia Weian's wound.
"I'm fine now."
Song Qingyun widened his eyes.
Xia Weian smiled, lifted up his clothes and pointed at the place where there was no trace now.
"It was right here. It hurt a little when it went in, but the bleeding stopped quickly and the recovery was even faster. Before I even got used to it, it was over."
"This is because your body has changed after being nourished by the space, right?" Song Qingyun asked.
Xia Weian nodded.
"I think so. If the two of us stay in this space as much as possible, I think it will prolong our lives."
The couple smiled at each other.
But Song Qingyun immediately said seriously, "No matter how strong your body's self-healing ability is, it will hurt when you get hurt."
"Plus, it's easy for something to go wrong. If something doesn't heal on its own, you should be careful and don't be careless."
"I know. I really didn't expect that Xiao Jiang actually hid a dagger on his keychain. It's a three-fold dagger. It's quite novel. It's a pity that I can't take it."
Song Qingyun raised his hand and patted Xia Weian.
"I want everything. Wait a minute, I'll make you a bowl of noodles. Eat your fill first, then take a rest."
"Okay." Xia Weian responded.
Song Qingyun took out the noodles neatly and cooked a bowl for Xia Weian.
After Xia Weian finished his noodles, Song Qingyun sent him into the space to rest. They would leave for school in half an hour.
Until the children were brought back and dinner was over, no one from the old house came to call Xia Weian.
If no one called him, Xia Weian would naturally not take the initiative to go. He had already shown up where he needed to.
In addition, the police have confirmed that he was injured again in the operation of arresting criminals, so he should rest. The couple did not care about the old house and went to bed early.
This side of the old house.
It quickly got dark. Wang Cui prepared dinner. Xia Zichen and Xia Ziheng had taken turns sleeping in the afternoon, so they were both energetic.
They discussed the night watch with Xia Ziheng and Xia Zirui.
"My father hasn't recovered yet. He woke up and drank some water, but he's still weak. Why don't the four of us just keep watch all night?" Xia Zichen suggested.
Xia Zixuan and Xia Zirui naturally had no objection.
"Okay, I see my dad doesn't look well, let him get some sleep. We still have to discuss the matter of grandpa and grandma going up the mountain tomorrow."
The four grandchildren had discussed it, so Xia Jianguo and Xia Zhiqiang naturally had no objections.
Although Zhao Meilan and Tian Guihua felt sorry for their son, if their son didn't go, who would? They had to rely on them.
Originally, Xia Zixuan and Xia Zirui planned to wait until everyone fell asleep, and then secretly go to Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia's room to look for their money...
As a result, for some reason, both of them felt drowsy and soon fell asleep.
Xia Zichen and Xia Ziheng did the same and fell asleep quickly.
Zhao Meilan and Tian Guihua were already very tired, and they just thought they were extremely tired, so they fell asleep on the kang.
The evening breeze was bleak and everyone in the Xia family was fast asleep.
Wang Cui climbed up from the kang.
She quietly entered the room of Old Man and Old Lady Xia and used the method her grandmother taught her to look for traces.
In the past, she and her grandmother found the treasure hidden in the secret compartment of a landlord's house that had been raided countless times.
Wang Cui took a small flashlight and searched inch by inch, and finally found a secret compartment in a corner of the wall.
The secret compartment is very hidden and has some small mechanisms. Wang Po knows how to use it, and Wang Cui has also learned it.
Wang Cui's eyes lit up and she carefully opened the secret compartment, which contained a letter and a seal.
Wang Cui looked carefully and saw that there was an ancient character on the seal and the letter was sealed with wax.
If she tore it open directly, the letter would be destroyed.
Wang Cui also knows some tricks. Once this kind of thing is damaged, it may lose its original value.
Wang Cui was not in a hurry. She put both things into her pocket. When she returned, she would naturally find a way to see the contents of the letter.
Her grandmother taught her all these things.
Wang Cui restored the secret compartment to its original state, then carefully searched around the Xia family yard and found a small square box in the corner of the east wall.
The box was very small, and Wang Cui was a little disappointed. After opening it, she saw a longevity lock inside. Wang Cui intuitively felt that the longevity lock might be related to the letter he found.
So she kept the longevity lock close to her body and stuffed the box into her bag.
After hiding everything, Wang Cui carefully checked the surrounding traces to make sure there was nothing unusual.
He went back to the kang and fell asleep again.
When the four Xia brothers opened their eyes, it was dawn...
Xia Zixuan slapped his thigh angrily. How could he fall asleep?
Xia Zirui was also extremely regretful. He would definitely talk about dividing the family property during the day. Alas! It was too late!
Xia Ziheng felt so useless and was just feeling frustrated when Xia Zichen pulled him away...
"Zi Chen."
"Someone drugged us."
