The happy little days of the Ye family

Ye Qingqing did not tell Tang Xiaojing about the treasure hunt in the old house of the Ye family.

It's not that Ye Qingqing doesn't trust Tang Xiaojing, it's just that Ye Qingqing doesn't want to test people's hearts.

Although the relationship between the two families is very good, they still need to be separated in terms of money. Talking about money can easily hurt the harmony.

However, in the newly purchased house, the Ye family picked up some small items that the previous owner had left behind. This was harmless, and there was no need to hide it from the Tang family and his son.

Ye Qingqing put the house deeds away, jumped down from the table nimbly, and walked to Tang Xiaojing's side with a smile.

"As I told you this afternoon, this house was bought by a dog official named Guan for his son to study. It is magnificent and has a lot of good things."

"The house was sealed by the government, and I inquired about it. At that time, the dog official's son was arrested in the school, and the things in the house were not taken away."

"Although the government searched it and took away all the valuables as well as gold, silver and jewelry, there must still be some valuables left behind."

"What you said makes perfect sense." The more Tang Xiaojing thought about it, the more it made sense, and he became excited along with Ye Qingqing.

Ye Qingqing mysteriously said in Tang Xiaojing's ear again:

"My mother and the others went to clean the newly bought house yesterday. They also picked up some silver earrings, jade gourds and other small items in the house. They are probably worth two or thirty taels of silver if sold."

"If you think about it, the house we bought is bigger, and the people living in it are richer. There must be more than just these things left in it."

Hearing this, Tang Xiaojing was even more excited than Ye Qingqing.

He also took a closer look at the house today. Although it was a little messed up by the government officials, there were indeed some small things missing.

And since the house is so big, not everything has been searched. At least the rooms where the servants live in the wing are quite neat.

Don't underestimate the servants of these wealthy families. The favored servants also wear gold and silver, and are rewarded with many good things.

Ye Qingqing pointed to the large wardrobe and the beams on the side, and then said:

"You even make two secret compartments in your room to hide things. Don't those young masters from wealthy families hide their private money? There must be money hidden secretly."

"Not to mention Mr. Guan, those servants probably have a lot of money hidden away."

Tang Xiaojing gently pinched Ye Qingqing's little nose and said cheerfully:

"Little clever guy, no wonder you, a little money-lover, are willing to spend hundreds of taels of silver to buy a house. That's what you had in mind."

Ye Qingqing slapped the big hand that was causing trouble on her face, raised her chubby little face high, and looked at Tang Xiaojing proudly.

"Look, there are half a bookshelf of books in the study. Those books alone are worth dozens of taels of silver. There are also those mahogany furniture. There are a lot of valuable things in this room."

"And I have a hunch that if we search the entire house, we will definitely find a lot of valuable things."

"Then let's go treasure hunting at the new house tomorrow."

After listening to Ye Qingqing's words, Tang Xiaojing became even more excited and wanted to go to the newly bought house to hunt for treasures immediately.

Only then did Tang Xiaojing remember that he seemed to have not told Ye Qingqing about the mysterious cave on Stone Mountain.

To make a long story short, Tang Xiaojing briefly told Ye Qingqing about the mysterious cave on Stone Mountain.

"We found two wild ginseng trees in the cave, as well as two prescriptions for medicinal wine. The prescriptions for diluting wine and body-tonifying medicinal wine were found in the cave."

"Wow, sir, you must be so lucky. I used to wonder how shopkeeper Wang could be so good and teach you how to make so many medicinal wines."

"Brother Wang is indeed very kind to me, but I will definitely not give the precious prescriptions to outsiders. He is very good at it."

No one is stupid, heirloom prescriptions must be carefully guarded. What Tang Xiaojing learned as an apprentice in a pharmacy was only superficial.

However, the little he learned was enough for Tang Xiaojing to support his family, so he has always been very grateful to Shopkeeper Wang.

Tang Xiaojing continued: "The ginseng and the dendrobium at the entrance of the cave were sold for a total of 120 taels of silver. It was with this money that the family was able to buy the two houses in Rongshu Lane in the town."

"My husband, you are very lucky. No wonder you were able to buy two houses in the town at such a young age."

Ye Qingqing thought that the money to buy the house came from Tangshan, but he didn't expect that it was the treasure in the cave.

But the most precious ones are the dendrobium trees outside the cave entrance, which are golden hens that can lay eggs.

"The entrance to the cave is just behind the rocks on the dendrobium wall. The top few dendrobium trees were found along the cave."

If it weren't for the cave, he would never have thought that there were several dendrobium trees hidden on the rock wall.

"The cave is very deep. There are two stone chambers, one large and one small. The best thing is that there is a spring inside, and the water that flows out is hot."

"Ms. sir, that spring with hot water you mentioned, is the water there dry? Can it be used for bathing?"

Ye Qingqing was very interested in the hot springs emitting hot water in the cave.

"The water is no different from an ordinary spring. The water flowing out is very clear and clean. The only difference is that the water is hot."

"My dad said that he had seen this kind of hot spring in the wild when he was an escort. He heard that bathing in it was very comfortable."

Now, Ye Qingqing became even more interested in this mysterious cave and wanted to go inside the cave now.

Ye Qingqing looked at Tang Xiaojing excitedly, "I will go treasure hunting at Xinzhai tomorrow. After the treasure hunting is over, my husband, please take me to the cave to have a look."

"I don't know where the hermit master lives. Do you think there are any martial arts secrets hidden in it?"

Tang Xiaojing smiled and said: "Okay, I will take you there to have a look later. As for the martial arts secret book, it depends on whether Qingqing can find it."

The two were chatting happily in the room, when suddenly Tangshan's voice came from outside the room.

"Qingqing, Xiao Jing, the buns are almost cold. Come over and eat the buns quickly."

"Okay dad, we'll be out right away." Ye Qingqing responded obediently.

When the three of them returned to town after buying the house, it was already dark and Ye Qingqing was too lazy to cook, so he asked Tang Xiaojing to buy some steamed buns.

There are two fillings for steamed buns, one is filled with egg and tofu, and the other is filled with pork and cabbage.

In addition to steamed buns, there is also a large bowl of sour bamboo shoots made by Ye Qingqing on the table.

While eating steamed buns, Ye Qingqing happily talked to Tangshan about going to the new house to hunt for treasures tomorrow.

Tangshan was also very interested. "I heard when I was in the county that treasures can usually be found in the old houses of wealthy people."

"The house was sealed by the government, and there may be treasures hidden in it. Not bad, not bad. Let's go to bed early at night and go there early tomorrow morning."

Tangshan was very excited, even more excited than when he was in the mysterious cave. He wanted to go to the new house to hunt for treasures right away.

The three of them discussed happily about going treasure hunting at the newly bought house tomorrow.

At this time, the Ye family in front also became lively. The group had just returned from treasure hunting in the county.

Everyone was in high spirits, and Ye Qingqing could hear their hearty laughter in the Tang family.

Now Ye Qingqing didn't need to go over to inquire. Just from their laughter, she knew that she had gained a lot today.

Ye Xilin's laughter could be heard from several rooms in front. Listening to the laughter coming from the Ye family in front, Ye Qingqing couldn't help but laugh too.

But they came back too late, and the braised rabbit that Ye Xilin longed for had to be postponed until the next day.

The Ye family's dinner is the same as the Tang family's, including meat buns.
