The happy little days of the Ye family

The young couple took a small hoe and carefully peeled away the disturbed soil in front of them.

Tang Xiaojing had just dug a few times when the small medicine hoe in his hand hit a hard object.

The two looked at each other, threw away the hoes in their hands with a smile on their face, and then carefully picked up the remaining soil with their hands.

Soon a square box appeared in front of the two of them.

This box is several times larger than the one Tangshan found on the beam just now.

But when Ye Qingqing took it out, it felt light inside.

Feeling something wrong with the weight of the box in her hand, the smile on her face immediately fell, "It shouldn't be empty, right?"

The smile on Tang Xiaojing's face also froze, and he quickly opened the box in front of him with a sense of luck.

It was indeed empty inside, and the two people who were so excited immediately became exhausted.

Tang Xiaojing buried the soil he just dug back in disappointment and sighed:

"It was all in vain, I thought it was gold and silver treasures."

"This box looks like it can still be used. Let's keep it for storing things." Ye Qingqing casually placed the box in his hand on the table nearby.

Let people then get busy with their own work.

Ye Qingqing had already checked the door and wardrobe just now, so he went to the dressing table next to the wardrobe.

The dressing table in the room is very gorgeous, and it is twice as big as the one Ye Qingqing usually uses. There are two very large drawers on the left and right below.

There was a half-person-high bronze mirror placed on the dressing table. Standing in front of the mirror, Ye Qingqing's appearance was clearly reflected in it, which showed that this bronze mirror was a good thing.

Ye Qingqing planned to rent out the newly bought house to collect rent. If the bronze mirror was left here, it would be better to sell it.

So Ye Qingqing put the bronze mirror aside.

Bronze mirrors are easily scratched by things, so it is not easy to put them in a sack.

There was nothing on the dressing table except the bronze mirror, so she opened the drawer on the left.

The outermost part is a jewelry box with exquisite carvings, but after opening it, there is nothing inside.

Ye Qingqing put the jewelry box on the table and then looked inside.

There was also a simpler box inside, and after opening it, I found a variety of exquisite silk flowers inside.

There is a big box full of them, probably about ten flowers, and each one is different.

Ye Qingqing saw that these silk flowers were very delicate and pretty, a bit prettier than the ones his grandma usually made, and he immediately thought of a good idea.

"Others have worn these silk flowers, and they are not easy to use. They are not worth selling, so why not give them to grandma as a reference to see if I can make these silk flowers."

Although Grandma Ye can no longer do embroidery, she is still very good at making silk flowers.

The silk flowers on Ye's father's and Ye Donglin's stalls were all made by her.

Ye Qingqing happily collected a whole box of silk flowers and prepared to take them back to borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha.

Apart from the two jewelry boxes, the only thing left in the drawer were two silk handkerchiefs.

The embroidery on the two handkerchiefs was quite unique. Ye Qingqing took one look at them and decided to keep them.

She took a fancy to the embroidery pattern above and planned to go back and draw two similar ones.

Embroidery samples are very important to embroiderers. Ye Qingqing likes to draw any beautiful scenery he sees and then embroider them into embroidery pictures.

If she knew that Mrs. Ye had found an album specifically for recording embroidery patterns, she would probably be extremely happy.

After taking out everything, Ye Qingqing carefully checked every corner of the drawer. When he saw that there was nothing inside, he removed the drawer.

Then she put her arm into the middle of the dressing table and groped around.

Feeling around, she suddenly found something hard and soft stuck to the inner wall of the dressing table.

Ye Qingqing scraped some off, but she couldn't tell what it was. She guessed that there should be something valuable stuck and hidden inside.

After searching for a while, Ye Qingqing touched those unknown things on the other side of the board, but the things stuck on them were no longer there.

"It seems that it was a step too late. The contents inside were either taken away by the original owner in advance, or were raided by the government officials."

Ye Qingqing unhappily opened the big drawer next to him.

This drawer was obviously heavier, and it took a lot of effort for Ye Qingqing to open it.

There are many things in the drawer, and they are full of things for women to dress up.

There are facial grease, hand grease, mouth grease, rouge and hair oil, and there are more than two or three types of each, and even there are three different combs.

In the corner, there is also a small box containing two expensive snails.

It seems that the owner of this house is quite fond of beauty and is very rich.

Ye Qingqing estimated that the contents of this drawer alone would cost more than twenty taels of silver.

Looking at the drawer full of dressing things, Ye Qingqing felt a little envious.

But she would not be willing to spend more than twenty taels to buy these things.

In Ye Qingqing's opinion, it is better to use the money to buy all kinds of delicious food.

The rouge, gouache, etc. had all been used by others, and Ye Qingqing cleaned them all up.

Like Luo Zidai and the three exquisite combs, Ye Qingqing thought that the pawnshop would want them, so he put them into the sack.

After everything was cleared out, Ye Qingqing was delighted to find two gold leaves at the bottom of the drawer.

These gold leaves were exactly the same as those she had just found in the hall. The two pieces together weighed about a penny.

Although it was a little lighter, it was still gold after all. Ye Qingqing's smile was as bright and dazzling as a flower.

After taking out the drawer, Ye Qingqing also touched some strange things like before on the inner wall of the dressing table.

"This man is pretty good at hiding things, but it's a pity that he was too late."

Ye Qingqing, who found nothing, put the two drawers back with a disappointed look on his face.

Although she found a lot of things today, they were all silver earrings, gold leaves and other small things, which together were not worth much.

Ye Qingqing was extremely envious of the box of silver ingots and gold bars that Tangshan had just found.

Why didn't she find such a valuable thing?

Tang Xiaojing, who was even more unlucky, had already searched around the big bed, windows and tables in the room, but couldn't find even a copper plate.

While searching the rafters, I saw the gold leaves that Ye Qingqing found, and my eyes almost turned red with envy.

At this time, Tangshan's hearty laughter came from next door.

Just by hearing the laughter, the two knew that Tangshan must have found something good.

The house was also searched, and the two of them quickly took their things and went to the next room happily.

"Dad, what good things did you find again?"

Before the two of them entered the room, Ye Qingqing's crisp voice came through.
