But now is not the time to talk about this. Jiang Zhengkun is still very good at judging the situation and knows what to say and when.
He pretended to be in pain and helpless, and looked at Chen Ruxue, "Xiaoxue, I'm so sorry, I really didn't know you and your father existed. If I had known, I would have found a way to take you away.
You wouldn't have to suffer so much.
But don't worry, when we find the treasure, I will take you and your family to Xiangcheng, and then we will live a happy life together."
It must be said that everyone has to applaud Jiang Zhengkun for his performance.
That expression, that voice, that movement are simply amazing, perfectly on point.
If Chen Ruxue had not heard the conversation between Jiang Zhengkun and Old Mrs. Jiang with her own ears, she might have believed it.
"There's no need to act so affectionate! I really don't understand what you mean by treasure and key.
Besides, if you say there is a treasure, then there is a treasure. Where is the treasure buried? How can you find it? You can't just guess!"
"My child, I'm speaking from the heart.
Regarding the treasure, I am sure that it really exists. My father, your grandfather, told my mother in person, so it must be correct.
Besides, I know how to find the treasure you mentioned.
I have a treasure map in my hand, which was passed down from my grandfather.
As for where the treasure is buried, that's even easier to say. I can guarantee that it must be in Anshi, the former hometown of the Jiang and Bai families. I just don't know exactly which hill it is buried on.
I believe that as long as we go to Anshi and look for it carefully, we will definitely find the mountain."
Chen Ruxue: I didn’t expect Jiang Zhengkun to be so smart. He guessed that the treasure was buried in Anshi in just a short time.
However, she couldn't admit it yet. At the moment, she had other more important things to do.
Thinking of this, Chen Ruxue's attitude softened a lot, "Since you say so then it is, but I really don't have the key.
How about you go back first and wait for me to look for the things my father left behind. If I find them, I will inform you and then we can set off for An City together."
"However long will it take? I've waited enough."
Jiang Zeyu interrupted again.
"Shut up!" Jiang Zhengkun knew that some things couldn't be rushed, so he had to take it slow. "Okay, then your cousin and I will go back to the hotel and wait for your news.
I hope you can come as soon as possible!"
After saying that, Jiang Zhengkun pulled Jiang Zeyu up and left.
After the annoying person left, Chen Ruxue hurriedly pulled Ye Haonan out of the door.
"Let's go to Uncle Yang's brother's house first!"
Soon, the two rode their bicycles to the door of the big house they had visited before.
Ye Haonan parked his bicycle and went forward to knock on the door.
After three rings, a man's voice rang out from inside, "Who is it?"
With a creaking sound, the door opened a tiny crack.
A middle-aged man looked out through the crack in the door and saw two very handsome young men, so he opened the door with confidence.
"Who are you and what do you want from me?"
"You must be Uncle Yang's younger brother, Second Uncle Yang. I have a painting here that Uncle Yang had someone pass on to me. However, my ability is really limited, so I thought I'd return it to you!"
Chen Ruxue did not introduce herself in detail, but directly stuffed the painting in her hand into Yang Laoer's hand.
Yang Lao Er was confused by Chen Ruxue's sudden action and quickly stopped her, "Hey, don't, make sure you explain yourself first!
Otherwise, you two follow me in first!"
Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan looked at each other and quietly observed their surroundings before entering the door.
Of course, these were specially made for the people who were following them to see.
I believe that if this happens, those people will definitely take the bait.
As expected by Chen Ruxue, as soon as they entered, someone quietly ran away in the dark.
As soon as Chen Ruxue entered the house, she began to look around at the decorations inside.
The room is filled with mahogany furniture, the tea sets for drinking water are all exquisite porcelain, and there are also a few paintings that look inconspicuous but are actually works of famous artists.
Of course, Chen Ruxue didn't see these things; Xiao De told her all of them.
"Host, this family is not simple! There are at least three secret rooms in this yard.
On the surface, the things in this room may seem insignificant, but in fact they are all good things.
And, hidden in one of the secret rooms is a small-leaf red sandalwood step-out bed. I've only seen it twice in all my time as a child."
"Small-leaf sandalwood is so precious. I really want to see it.
However, you said that the Yang family is so rich, why do they still have to repair houses and make furniture for others?
Ah, I see, it's for disguise, just like me.
But, since Mr. Yang’s health was so poor, why didn’t he use the family’s money to see a doctor, and why did he have to wait until he was on the verge of death? It’s really incomprehensible.”
Chen Ruxue and Xiao De whispered to each other for a long time before finally looking at Yang Laoer in front of them.
Yang Lao Er sat upright, looking at Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan calmly, "You two, since my eldest brother asked someone to pass this painting to you, then it's naturally up to you to do with it.
There's no need to hand it back to me!"
"Uncle Yang, can I ask about Uncle Yang?"
"Yes, of course, whatever you want to know!"
"I want to ask why Mr. Yang doesn't seek treatment for his illness. Is it really because he has no money?"
"Well?"
As if he hadn't expected Chen Ruxue to ask this question, Yang Lao Er was stunned for a moment before he remembered to answer, "My eldest brother's illness could actually be cured if it had been treated earlier, but I gave him money, but he just didn't want to see the doctor.
He insisted on going to accompany my sister-in-law and nephew, saying that it was really hard for him to live alone and asked me not to worry about him, saying that he would be relieved if he left.
"Uncle Yang is gone just like that. Isn't Old Master Yang sad?"
"Ah? Ah, sad, of course I'm sad." Yang Lao Er's face suddenly changed as if he realized something. "My father actually passed away a few years ago. If he were still alive, he would definitely be very sad."
"Is that so? Then, Uncle Yang, was Uncle Yang buried with his wife and son after his death?
Don't overthink it, I just wanted to go burn some incense for them. We knew each other, and I felt really bad for Uncle Yang's family."
"No, don't bother! My eldest brother likes quietness, so I specially buried him and his family in a very quiet place where they won't be disturbed."
Yang Laoer rejected Chen Ruxue very reluctantly.
Chen Ruxue didn't think too much about it. She came here today just to set a trap for those people outside and make them believe it. Of course, she would stay as long as possible.
Seeing that it was almost time, Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan stood up and said goodbye.
Leaving the Yang family's house, Chen Ruxue stopped the bike at the corner and looked back at the Yang family's house. "Brother Nan, let's come back tonight!"
