Chapter 151: Things Passed to Jiang Family’s Wife
Mrs. Jiang took the box, touched it lovingly, and then handed it to Jiang Luo. "This thing was passed down from the Jiang family to the daughter-in-law. I wanted to give it to you when I first met you, but I never found the opportunity. It just so happens that I'm handing it over to you today. I can put an important matter aside. I don't care who you give it to or how you deal with it in the future.
Okay, you and Xiaowu go clean up the table and the kitchen. When you leave, take the basket at the door. That's what I packed for you.
Your grandfather and I have to go to the front yard to manage the compound. The main compound had agreed to have a meeting after dinner today, but your aunt delayed us. If we haven't returned after you finish cleaning up, please lock the door with the lock on the door. Your grandfather and I have the key."
After giving their instructions, the two old men ran to the front yard.
After Jiang Hao and the other man finished cleaning up, they put the box back into the space, took the basket that Old Lady Jiang mentioned, locked the door, and left.
After returning home, Jiang Hao and Shi Luo put the basket on the table, lit the coal stove and the kang to make the room a little warmer before sitting down.
Jiang Hao picked up the basket and flipped through it. "Grandma packed eight bananas, eight oranges, a grapefruit, a can of milk powder, and two braised pig's trotters."
Shi Luo felt troubled when he thought of the heroine, but he couldn't directly tell her that she was the heroine of a reborn novel, so he could only give Jiang Hao as many hints as possible.
"I always feel that there is something wrong with the girl grandma mentioned. I won't say anything about the fact that she can get meat, but look at this fruit. It's so fresh, it doesn't look like something you can get in the middle of winter, and it doesn't look like it was shipped from far away to Beijing.
When she goes to your office, either stay away or observe her more closely. I suspect she has a space like ours, so we should be more careful when using it from now on."
Jiang Hao also suspected that the girl had space, so after hearing Shi Luo's words, he nodded seriously.
"Come, let me see what grandma said she would give to Jiang's daughter-in-law."
Shi Luobian said as he opened the box he had taken out from the space.
"Oh my god, these are all treasures, brother, your Jiang family is really rich."
Jiang Hao took out the items from the box one by one. "When I lived with my grandfather before, I looked through the Jiang family tree. According to my family tree, my ancestors had a general. However, after helping the then-reigning emperor conquer the world, he was feared because of his great achievements and was beheaded for treason.
But no one knew which ancestor had received the news that the whole family would be exterminated, and had sent his youngest son to escape with 80% of the property.
The youngest son lay dormant for forty years, and only after the dynasty had changed two rulers did he reappear with his family and property.
According to records, one of his grandsons was a business genius, who once managed the Jiang family to the position of the first mortgage in the country.
However, the dynasty at that time was not very stable and wars were frequent. These wars required money, so many superiors set their sights on the Jiang family.
That business genius was also a man who could be ruthless. He dismissed all his wives and concubines, gave up 80% of his net worth, and fled with the remaining 20% of his property and his most cherished son.
Later, when the situation stabilized, he changed his appearance and name and started doing business again.
This time, the Jiang family's ancestors learned to make a fortune quietly, keep a low profile, and do some profitable but unobtrusive jobs.
But fate was full of twists and turns. Just when the Jiang family had just earned back enough money to cover the money they had given up, the situation became chaotic again.
The ancestor of the Jiang family at that time learned from the lessons of his predecessors and immediately split up the family. He took most of the family property and his eldest son and fled to live in seclusion in the mountains.
Then came the generation of my great-grandfather and father. At that time, the Jiang family had no ambitions and lived a leisurely life of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and looking at the southern mountains.
From my great-grandfather's generation onward, because the situation was so chaotic, some of the Jiang family members died in battles, and some died in accidents. Anyway, in the end, my great-grandfather was the only one left in the Jiang family.
My great-grandfather took some of the Jiang family's gold and silver and went to the relatively stable and prosperous Hai City, where he opened a shop to make a living.
Later, Haishi was also failing, so my great-grandfather disposed of Haishi and took his family back to his hometown, Shi, and opened a few shops in Shi.
Later, things got more and more chaotic, and the business was no longer viable, so my great-grandfather simply took his family back to the countryside. You all know what happened next.
My grandfather told me today that most of my family's property is in a basement on a mountain near Beijing, and he gave me all those things.
The key and paper in this box should be the key and mechanism diagram of the stone door where most of my family's property is kept.
This single key should be the key to the basement under the house in my hometown.
Luo Luo, that mountain is actually quite close. How about we go and put the things into the space after work tomorrow when the time comes? "
