Chapter 8 Two Treasure Chests
Ye Mingzhu wanted to go to the beach and see what was there, as if something in the sea was attracting her.
The Ye family’s house was not far from the beach, and she walked to the beach smoothly.
Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month. The faint moonlight shines on the sea at night, like a layer of gauze. If you get close, you can hear the sound of waves hitting the beach.
Ye Mingzhu walked over slowly, and a big wave hit her, and she was swept into the sea along the waves.
Ye Mingzhu opened her eyes wide. She thought she would choke on the water, but she was breathing as if she was on the shore.
The water was very calm, which was very different from the rolling waves on the surface. She lifted the water, causing ripples, but there was no hindrance at all.
She swam freely in the water like a fish, without any hindrance. A fish even rubbed her with its tail. She reached out and grabbed it, and the fish stayed obediently in her palm.
Ye Mingzhu's mind moved, and the fish in her hand appeared in space. She could clearly feel the fish stunned for a moment, then swung its tail and sank to the bottom of the water, motionless.
Is it dead? Curious, Ye Mingzhu entered the space and scooped up the fish. Its gills were still moving, and then it slipped from her hands into the water and sank to the bottom.
Could this water have any special effects? Ye Mingzhu thought about it for a moment and shook her head. This water is as salty as seawater, what effects can it have?
However, it is good to be a fish pond.
Ye Mingzhu returned to the sea and collected all the fish, shrimps, shellfish and other creatures in the nearby sea into the space.
Back in the space, she even saw a two or three meter long sea beast, which seemed to be a killer whale? She had seen it before when she visited the Ocean World.
The killer whale seemed a little confused, shaking its big head, looking a little scary.
Ye Mingzhu quickly released it back into the sea. She just wanted to collect some fish and shrimp as food, but she didn't want to raise a killer whale because it was too big and scary.
For some reason, the fish and shrimps that Ye Mingzhu caught from the sea all sank into the water, as if they were asleep. She picked up one fish and shrimp each and took a look. They were all alive, so she paid no more attention to them.
Just as she was about to leave the space, she found a familiar cloth bag by the pool, half submerged in water. She quickly picked it up. This was the jade bracelet passed down from the Jiang family's ancestors, and nothing could go wrong with it.
Ye Mingzhu opened the jade bracelet and took a look. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but there seemed to be less cotton-like substance in the jade bracelet in her hand.
She thought about it and took out the bracelet.
This bracelet is an heirloom of the Jiang family. Many people must have seen it. If anything changes to it, it will be difficult to explain.
Ye Mingzhu thought that if she had the chance, she could buy some cheap bracelets to try out and see what effect the pool water had.
I don’t know if it’s because there is a space of Kun in her body, but Ye Mingzhu always feels like a marine animal in the sea. Her breathing and movements are particularly smooth. Even compared with fish, her swimming speed is not slow.
If she wasn't afraid that Ye Yun'an would wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to find her, she really wanted to swim in the sea for a while longer.
Reluctantly coming out of the sea, Ye Mingzhu stepped into the puddle on the beach, thinking how nice it would be if she could get into the water. Then she felt her body pass through the puddle and soon stood on the beach again.
Ye Mingzhu was truly bewildered. Could she possibly melt into the water? She was ready to retract her initial words about how useless the space was. This space was incredibly useful.
With this skill, she planned to go to her uncle's house to collect all the pearl clams that the original owner had collected in the sea today.
This year, my uncle said he was not feeling well and only went to the sea once. Most of the pearl oysters were collected by the original owner.
Ye Mingzhu wrung the water out of her clothes, quietly went to Uncle Ye's house, and directly released some water from the space, and let the water flow into the door along the space.
Although it was dark, the original owner went to the kitchen most often during the few months he lived here. Except for going to the sea, he spent most of his time in the kitchen helping to wash vegetables and dishes. The pearl clams that Uncle Ye had just brought back were usually placed in the kitchen.
Ye Mingzhu was very lucky, as both buckets of pearl oysters were soaked in the wooden barrel.
She squatted down and was about to take away all the pearl oysters, but she miraculously felt the pearls in each pearl oyster. She raised her eyebrows, picked up a pearl oyster, and the shell opened automatically, revealing two soybean-sized pearls inside.
Without any hesitation, Ye Mingzhu collected all the pearl oysters with pearls, and the remaining pearl oysters were basically empty.
She walked out with satisfaction. Suddenly, she heard voices in the room and she quickly squatted down.
"Master, will Mingzhu no longer be able to collect pearls for us? What do you think if I give Mingzhu to my nephew from my mother's side?"
"Who told you to push Mingzhu into the sea? Mingzhu can't cook, and Yun'an is still young. Wait a few days and try to coax them. If that doesn't work, find someone to scare them so they won't dare to live on their own."
"What if they don't come back? I'm thinking Zhuzi's legs aren't working well, and my parents have been wanting to find someone to take care of him. Mingzhu can't have children, so it's hard for her to get married. So, when the time comes, marry her to Zhuzi, and we can use our boat to go to sea. We can just give them some food."
"If Mingzhu refuses to come back..."
…
Ye Mingzhu was so angry that her face turned red. She wanted to rush in and beat the couple up. This couple was too selfish.
I was originally planning to collect only the pearl oysters I collected today, but it seems I can’t let them go.
Ye Mingzhu turned and went to the backyard.
In the original owner's memory, Uncle Ye would go for a walk in the backyard every day. One time, the original owner saw Uncle Ye reaching his hand into the chicken coop closest to the north, and when he came out, he had a satisfied smile on his face.
Lin is the one who collects the eggs in the house. No one else is allowed to get close to the chicken coop, as there must be something hidden in it.
She followed her memory to look for it, but the backyard was quiet and there were no chickens in the chicken coop?
Ye Mingzhu reached her hand into the chicken coop at the northernmost end, and found a movable wooden board inside. She gently opened it and felt a rectangular box inside, which she put directly into the space.
She also checked every chicken coop and found the same box in the southernmost chicken coop. She collected it as well, even the two eggs in the coop.
After tidying up the chicken coop, Ye Mingzhu returned directly the same way.
After returning home, Ye Mingzhu first went to Ye Yun'an's door to listen, and when she didn't hear any movement, she returned to her room.
She slipped directly into the space, and the two boxes brought from the Ye family's main room were still lying on the ground.
The box is not big, about half a foot long, and looks like two large toiletry bags.
There was no lock on it, so it opened easily. The next second, Ye Mingzhu whistled.
There was actually a box of gold leaves inside. When I opened another box, I found jade bracelets, jade hairpins, jade rings, and all kinds of jade artifacts?
When did the Ye family become so rich?
