Chapter 485 Do you have any luggage to pack?
When Jiang Yanchuan came back after dealing with some urgent matters, he found two young guys holding hands in a remote yard.
Guan Zhili was even quieter than before, following the little guy with a stern face. He only forced a smile when the little guy turned around to talk to him.
Jiang Yanchuan heard about what happened in the hall when he arrived. He was not surprised, but was a little curious about what they were doing.
He walked towards the young man with light steps, observing the two men's actions carefully.
The little girl held a small shovel for children to dig soil in one hand, and held her newly-acquainted brother's hand in the other, and walked to the root of a tree and knocked on it.
[Is this the place? ]
Jiang Yingcheng pretended that he was looking for money with his own skills, but in fact he was frantically seeking help from a cheater.
The electronic voice of 007's machine sounded after a while: [A little further forward.]
Jiang Yingcheng leaned his head to take a look, and sure enough, he saw a small piece of land in front of him, which was much darker than the surrounding land, as if it had been dug up not long ago.
【yeah!!】
Found it!!
She turned around and smiled sweetly at her officiating brother: "It should be here!"
Just now, after the soldiers took Guan Xiqiao and his group away again, Jiang Yingcheng asked for a notebook from the uncles around her, dragged her brother who was in charge of the ceremony, and went to the group of uncles who claimed to have hidden Guan Xiqiao's "evidence" and wrote down the locations where they buried the evidence one by one.
This is the hardest place to find, because the person who buried it was not like others who could clearly tell the exact location like "under the third tree from the right on the left side of the yard". All he knew was that there was a brown mark on the wall behind the tree that looked like the outline of a cat.
Jiang Yingcheng couldn't just go in and head for the place pointed out by 007, so she had to drag her brother, the host, and pretend to walk around the yard first, and finally walked towards the tree where the silver was buried.
Guan Zhili curled the corners of his lips, took a step forward and squatted down.
He also held a slightly larger shovel in his hand. He squatted down and started digging at the darker part of the ground.
"Chengcheng is here too!"
Jiang Yingcheng also quickly waved her small shovel and kept digging with her brother who was in charge of the ceremony.
Jiang Yanchuan still hadn't figured out what the two of them were doing, but the scene before him inexplicably made him not want to disturb them, so he didn't say anything, but just stood quietly in a corner where he could just hear the little guy's voice but wouldn't be discovered by him.
The sun was getting bright, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on the foreheads and noses of the two boys. Jiang Yingcheng only dug for a while, and then slowed down. Only the officiating officer maintained the previous frequency, digging again and again, numbly like a precision mechanical machine.
Soon, the soil layer
"Wow!!"
Jiang Yingcheng cried out in surprise, and finally decided to use more strength. She moved her little hands continuously, trying to dig out the iron box quickly.
There's a lot of money in there!
Seeing this, Guan Zhili had to speed up.
The two of them worked together to dig out the iron box and placed it on the ground.
Jiang Yingcheng threw away the small shovel in his hand and focused all his attention on the iron box in front of him. His eyes were sparkling, and Guan Zhili even felt that the virtual image of the iron box in the boy's eyes seemed to have turned into gold ingots one by one.
[It’s coming! The gold ingot is coming soon!!]
Guan Zhili: “…”
Jiang Yingcheng couldn't wait to open the iron box.
"Wow!!"
This eunuch was a good thrifty person. The money in his box was more than what the previous people had saved. It contained not only the silver that Guan Xiqiao gave him, but also a lot of jewelry. These were much more valuable than just silver!
Guan Zhili stared at the things in the box with an expressionless face, and as usual he only smiled when the little boy looked over at him.
Their father was cruel and ruthless, but he didn't want his children to be like him.
After all, my father ascended the throne by killing his father, so he was very jealous of this.
The cruel princes had to hide their true nature desperately until someone discovered that Guan Zhili was a pitiful insect who could be bullied by anyone.
After Guan Xiqiao realized that there was no way out, he broke the news almost frantically, saying that many princes in the palace had bought the eunuchs in the Customs and Ceremonial Court to vent their cruelty by bullying these poor bugs who had no one to rely on.
At least half of the money in the box represents his painful past.
Someone silently handed over a cloth bag, and Guan Zhili silently put the silver in the box into the bag together with the excited young man.
“Hmm…”
After packing, Jiang Yingcheng took out the small notebook and made a faint mark on the back of the column with "cat" written on it with his fingertips.
"Let Chengcheng see..." She lowered her head and looked at a series of locations. Her big eyes narrowed into a small straight line, making it difficult to distinguish the marks she had made with her fingernails.
Jiang Yingcheng looked at it for a long time, and 007 also looked at it for a long time. After a while, it couldn't help but blurt out: "I told you to use stones a long time ago."
There is usually dirt on the stones, and if you scratch them lightly on the paper, not only will they leave marks, but they will also get some black ash on them. No matter how you look at it, it is much more useful than a kid's fingernails.
In her heart, Jiang Yingcheng had actually already agreed with 007's words, but she was too proud to admit that she had insisted on doing something wrong, so she remained silent.
This haste actually helped her find the last location.
"Chengcheng found it!"
She looked up at the swing in the distance and said excitedly, "It's right under that swing!"
The swing was not far away, so the two of them didn't even have to walk far before they squatted down again, repeated the previous digging movements, and swung the shovels skillfully.
No one noticed Emperor Mingze who had been looking at them from a distance for who knows how long.
Not long after, they dug out the last money box.
Lechen also walked forward skillfully and handed the cloth bag over.
This time, after Jiang Yingcheng put the silver in the bag, he took the cloth bag directly.
It was a bit heavy, and she almost put it on the ground and dragged it to her brother who was the master of ceremonies: "This is for my brother who is the master of ceremonies!"
Guan Zhili was stunned for a moment.
Although it was incredible along the way, he also witnessed how much this little guy liked this "plain and simple" silver, so he never thought that this money would eventually be handed into his hands.
Jiang Yingcheng didn't show any reluctance on her face. Seeing her brother squatting there in a daze, she pushed the bag forward again and said, "Give these to brother as his own little treasury!"
Along the way, she realized the importance of money. It costs money to buy delicious candies and nice clothes. If she wants to give a gift to her beautiful father, she needs a lot of money!
She wanted to give a gift to the brother who was attending the ceremony, but after much thought, she decided that giving money would be the most appropriate thing to do!
Jiang Yingcheng raised his head with a look of seeking credit and looked across—
"Huh?"
【Why is the officiating brother crying? 】
She was distracted for just a moment!
Guan Zhili looked up blankly.
Where was he crying?
It was just a little vague beforehand.
As if to prove that he had not cried, he raised the corners of his lips and gave the little guy his first bright smile of the day.
Jiang Yanchuan just walked over at this time.
He deliberately stepped heavily so that the two kids would notice him in advance.
Jiang Yingcheng looked from her handsome father to her brother who was in charge of the ceremony, wanting to respond to both of them immediately. Finally, she wiped the tears from her brother who was in charge of the ceremony with her sleeves while turning back to greet her handsome father: "Father, are you done?!"
Jiang Yanchuan said, "I'm getting ready to go back."
Then he looked at Guan Zhili and asked, "Do you have anything to pack?"
