Su Tangxue first saw her grandmother kneeling down and bowing to the ruins, and then she remembered the plot in the book.
The book briefly described Lu Qinglin's grandmother's life story, so she recognized that the ruins before her were actually her grandmother's childhood home.
No wonder grandma looked so absent-minded when she was walking on the road just now.
After Yun Xiangrui bowed three times, he stood up, picked up the hoe, took Su Tangxue's hand and walked towards a big tree not far away.
"Xiaoxue, dig down there."
Although Su Tangxue had no doubts, she did as she was told. She took the hoe and dug the soil under the tree one hoe at a time.
Although she had guessed something in her heart, she was still shocked when she saw the black wooden box printed with patterns, inlaid with gold thread, and decorated with jewels.
The box was exquisitely crafted. If it were sold today, the starting price would be at least 100 million. Since her father had collected a similar one before, she could roughly estimate the price.
But if this kind of thing were put into practice nowadays, it would be criticized.
"Is this grandma's name?"
Su Tangxue turned around and asked her grandmother, but she was not in a hurry to dig it out.
Yun Xiangrui looked at the familiar jewelry box, nodded, and tears filled his eyes.
"Xiaoxue, dig it out!"
After getting her grandmother's approval, Su Tangxue slowly dug up the soil around the black box and dug it out bit by bit.
Because it had been buried underground for quite some time, some paint on the black box had peeled off, and Su Tangxue got some on her hands when she dug it out.
Soon, the complete box came into view. It was even more beautiful than she had expected, and it was obvious that the craftsman who made it had put a lot of thought into it.
In order to avoid being discovered, Su Tangxue quickly put the black box into her backpack and waited to look at it when she got back.
Su Tangxue also carefully covered the hole under the tree with soil. She even stepped on it twice out of concern.
After doing all this, she took her grandmother back.
Unexpectedly, not long after she left, Niu Xi appeared in front of the ruins.
She was washing clothes by the river when she heard a fellow villager tell her that the old lady had taken Su Tangxue out and was heading east.
"Niu 埧嵐, I just saw your old lady taking her grandson's wife over there. Why don't you go and take a look?"
Niu Xiaoxi didn't stop washing clothes at all, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. "What's the point of me going? The old lady has already let us take care of it."
"That's true, but the east is dangerous. If they accidentally go into the mountains and Qinglin is not at home, I'm afraid..."
She had just eaten the wild boar meat hunted by Lu Qinglin yesterday, and she still remembered how good it was, so she wanted to remind her as an aunt to be a good mother.
But Niu Xi didn't listen carefully at all. He thought it would be better if the two of them went into the mountains and never came back. They dared to go to the east. They were really courting death.
Sudden.
She vaguely caught the sensitive words from the east.
Thinking about it this way.
She immediately remembered that the old lady's parents' home was just to the east, and the old woman was with Su Tangxue, so she might have hidden some treasure.
Want to keep it all for yourself?
She immediately became anxious, dropped her clothes and ran to her former landlord's house.
But she was still a step too late. When she arrived, Su Tangxue and the old woman were gone.
Niu was so angry that he walked around the ruins, but found nothing and left angrily.
She was sure in her heart that the old woman must have hidden something valuable.
When she first came home, she took out a few worthless banknotes and a pitiful amount of money. She also fed the old woman well and kept so many children. But as soon as that brat Lu Qinglin came back, she rushed to give all the good things to them!
