Lu Jiaxin asked in a low voice: "Which one is the box for calligraphy and paintings? Let's lift it up first."

Gu Wenfeng pointed to the box on the far left, then walked over and took it down. He even opened it for her to see.

After taking a look, Lu Jiaxin walked forward and opened the box. The box was filled with books, which were neatly arranged.

She picked up a book, opened it carefully and shone the flashlight on it. It was all in traditional Chinese characters, and in the format of classical Chinese from right to left.

Gu Wenfeng pointed to the box on the far right and said, "This box contains all kinds of bottles. I don't understand them either, but they are all very beautiful."

Lu Jiaxin knew what the secret passage looked like and didn't want to stay any longer. She pointed at the box he had placed at his feet and said, "Brother Gu, let's lift it up first."

"good."

Lu Jiaxin warned again: "Porcelain is easy to break, so be careful when you lift it later."

After saying this, he felt more and more that it was unsafe to carry it up. This secret passage was pitch dark, and if someone fell, the whole box of porcelain would be ruined.

Seeing that she suddenly stopped talking, Gu Wenfeng reminded her, "Miss Lu, our yard has suddenly become quiet. I'm worried that the family behind us will come and knock on the door. Let's quickly carry the boxes up, and Xue Mao and I will carry the rest later."

Lu Jiaxin felt that he had considered everything very carefully: "I'll listen to Brother Gu."

As soon as she put the pole on her shoulder, Lu Jiaxin felt something was wrong: "Brother Gu, wait a minute, the weight is wrong, there shouldn't be any calligraphy or painting underneath."

Gu Wenfeng hummed and said, "There are only five paintings and calligraphy, and the rest are paper, pens, and some strange stones."

Strange stone? Lu Jiaxin thought about it and guessed it was ink or inkstone, but she couldn't be sure before seeing it. It was pitch black here, not a place to see things.

Although there are inkstones or inkstone blocks underneath, the box is still very light, weighing about three or four pounds. It is also because the box is too big, otherwise Gu Wenfeng could not carry it.

Ink is a very fragile thing, so Lu Jiaxin walked very slowly. When she reached the exit of the secret passage, she whispered to carry the calligraphy and paintings up first, and then take a backpack to carry the things up in batches.

Although this is a bit troublesome, it can indeed protect the contents of the box to the greatest extent. Gu Wenfeng: "Then you go up first, I'll wait here."

After Lu Jiaxin climbed up, she heard someone outside shouting, "What are you doing with the door closed in broad daylight?"

She was familiar with this voice, it was the old lady Sun from the Second Hospital. That old lady was always taking advantage of others, and all the neighbors disliked her.

Lu Jiaxin stuffed the calligraphy and painting into the luggage bag, then hurried out, came to Xue Mao and asked, "What's going on?"

Xue Mao shook his head and said, "I don't know. The old lady from the Second Hospital suddenly knocked on the door. I told her that you and Brother Gu were taking a nap and that we could talk later if we had anything to say. Unexpectedly, she started yelling."

Bang, bang, bang, after a series of knocks on the door, Old Lady Sun shouted again: "Open the door, or I'll call all the neighbors to come and see..."

Lu Jiaxin quickly washed and dried her face, then took off her outer coat and grabbed her hair with both hands, then ran to the kitchen, picked up a kitchen knife and opened the door.

Old Madam Sun saw that Lu Jiaxin was about to throw dirty water, but before she could say anything, she saw the dazzling knife in her hand. She took back the words that were on the tip of her tongue and forced a smile, "What are you going to do?"

Seeing that she was about to chop someone, Old Lady Sun couldn't help but take a step back.

Because of Mrs. Sun's shouting, several onlookers had gathered. One of them asked, "Young lady, if you have anything to say, please talk to me nicely. Put down the knife first."

Lu Jiaxin refused to put down the knife. She said to Old Lady Sun, "Why did I close the door in broad daylight? It was to prevent thieves like you. My brother didn't close the door when he went to buy something on the street. As a result, the axe and kitchen knife he brought with him disappeared, and more than 30 yuan in his bag was also missing. It was also because my brother was honest that he didn't come to you to settle the score. If it was me, I would have called the police immediately."

Old Mrs. Sun was so angry that she cursed, "Who do you say is a thief? We haven't touched your things."

Lu Jiaxin pointed the knife at her and asked, "You're not here to steal, so why are you knocking on my door? My brother was crawling so I didn't open the door because I was afraid you'd wake him up, and you're still saying dirty things. If you don't explain yourself clearly, I'll chop you up."

Old Madam Sun shuddered with fear, but soon raised her head and said, "Killing someone will get you shot. If you dare to touch me, you will be shot, right?"

Lu Jiaxin raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a malicious smile: "I am mentally ill, and I will not have to pay for my life if I kill you."

Xue Mao's eyes almost popped out of his head. In order to scare this old woman, Sister Xin had to fabricate that she was mentally ill.

Old Lady Sun saw her pale face and bulging eyes, which did not look normal. Thinking of how her family boiled medicine every day, she felt timid and stammered, "I, I came to borrow a hammer."

Lu Jiaxin sneered, "You take someone else's things under the guise of borrowing. How is that different from stealing? No, a thief at least knows that it's shady, but you're robbing openly."

The people watching all felt that this girl's mouth was as sharp as a knife.

Old Madam Sun would throw tantrums and curse at people, and even threaten them to death, and she had never been defeated in this area. But today, she didn't dare to scold Lu Jiaxin. If she really angered this lunatic, she would cut herself with a few knives, but if she didn't die, she would suffer a lot, and even have to pay for the medical expenses. At most, this lunatic would be locked up.

"If you don't want to lend it to me, forget it." After saying this, Old Mrs. Sun went back dejectedly.

Seeing her run away, Lu Jiaxin closed the door without caring what others thought. Seeing Xue Mao hesitated to speak, she smiled and said, "What's wrong?"

"Sis, you don't have to say that about yourself."

Lu Jiaxin felt that she had to use a special method to treat someone like Old Lady Sun: "Before we leave, she shouldn't dare to come again. Xue Mao, you don't have to care about the method, as long as the result is good."

After saying that, he added, "Just don't break the law or commit any crime."

As he was talking, Gu Wenfeng walked out of the room and said, "It's okay to say anything here, but it won't work when we return to Sijiu City."

Lu Jiaxin smiled: "Thank you, Brother Gu, I know."

Fortunately, Xue Mao stayed behind. If all three of them had gone down, the old woman would have become suspicious if no one answered the door. It really saved a lot of trouble to have such a thoughtful person around. Lu Jiaxin felt that she should try her best. Who knows, maybe Gu Wenfeng would agree to stay and do things for her! Although the hope was slim, she had to give it a try.
