The happy little days of the Ye family

Ye Qingqing lay under the bed, knocking on every board carefully, and even looking at every crack, but still found nothing.

"Sure enough, the treasure hunt depends on that boy Xilin."

At this time, Ye Qingqing missed her little brother a little.

Ye Qingqing turned around, facing the floor below, and began to search carefully.

The hidden compartment was not found, but Ye Qingqing found a stone slab with signs of prying under the head of the bed.

In fact, there were very few marks on the stone slab, only two scratches on the edge, which Tangshan didn't even notice when he looked at it just now.

But Ye Qingqing has sharp eyes.

In fact, it was because the Ye family had no hidden secrets. Ye Qingqing hid all his money underground before getting married, and he was very familiar with this.

Ye Qingqing looked at the position of the floor and the two scratches on the side, and knew that there must be silver hidden in the ground below.

Before getting married, Ye Qingqing also hid money in the ground under the bed.

"Dad, sir, come here quickly. There are traces of prying off this stone slab. There is probably a treasure hidden underneath."

Ye Qingqing excitedly called the Tang family father and son over.

The father and son were very strong and moved the big bed back, exposing the problematic slate.

Before coming to the house to hunt for treasure, Ye Qingqing specifically reminded Tang Xiaojing to bring over two small hoes for collecting herbs, which would come in handy at this time.

The father and son used a small hoe to pry up the stone slab, and sure enough they found that the soil underneath was somewhat loose, and it had obviously been dug up.

The father and son were very excited and started digging hard with their hoes.

"Be gentle, don't dig out the contents inside."

Ye Qingqing was very excited to see the father and son, and was afraid that they would dig out the treasure inside.

Hearing Ye Qingqing's anxious voice, the two of them quickly stopped their efforts and dug gently.

After a while, the father and son dug out a small box that was larger than a palm. The box looked ordinary, but the wood used was quite good.

Three people with six eyes looked directly at the small wooden box in front of them.

Tangshan quickly took out the box. After opening it, the three of them were disappointed to find that it was empty and the contents had been taken away long ago.

"The wood of this box is quite good. I will take it back to store the herbs."

Tang Xiaojing was very diligent and thrifty in managing his household. Seeing that the wood of the box was good, he thought it would be a good idea to take it back to contain the medicinal herbs, so as to better preserve the efficacy of the medicine.

The other two people were not interested in the wooden box, so Tang Xiaojing threw the wooden box into the sack.

After finishing searching under the bed, Ye Qingqing climbed onto the big bed in the room and rummaged.

The quilt on the bed was thrown to the ground. There were only quilts and pillows on the bed. Tangshan had already searched for it just now, and the bed was in a mess.

Ye Qingqing opened the quilt and found the end of the bed. Unexpectedly, he found a strange thing made of wood at the end of the bed.

"This thing seems familiar."

Ye Qingqing looked at it curiously, suddenly his face turned red, and he quickly took the pillow nearby to cover the strange thing.

"Ms. sir, come here and look for me."

Ye Qingqing blushed and anxiously called Tang Xiaojing over to search on the big bed, while he ran to the round table in the center of the room to check.

There was nothing on the table, but there were some broken teapots and cups on the floor.

"Even if it's not valuable, you can't just throw it away. Wash these things and scald them with hot water, and they can still be used again."

Ye Qingqing looked at the broken ceramic shards on the ground and felt very distressed.

It will cost money to buy a new set.

Ye Qingqing squatted under the table and looked up to see if there was anything hidden in the corners under the table.

The table was quite large and made of thick wood. Ye Qingqing carefully knocked on the table.

The little money fan checks it very carefully. What if there is silver or gold nuggets hidden inside?

Unfortunately, Ye Qingqing's hand hurt when he knocked it, and he couldn't find anything unusual.

After finishing searching above, Ye Qingqing then looked around under the table.

Ye Qingqing was lucky today and found a very beautiful light pink pearl in the gap beside the table leg.

The pearl was as big as Ye Qingqing's fingernail, pink and tender, and Ye Qingqing fell in love with it at first sight.

Ye Qingqing picked up the pearl excitedly, and then discovered that there were several long scratches on the back of the pearl.

The white scratches are very obvious on the pink pearls.

One side of the pearl is intact, but there are four scratches of different lengths on the back. The two longest ones take up half of the pearl.

Ye Qingqing looked at the scratches on the pearl and felt as if he was cutting her flesh with a knife.

"Ahhh! Such a beautiful pearl is ruined like this."

Tangshan who was on the side heard Ye Qingqing's voice and thought something had happened. He came over and saw the pearl in Ye Qingqing's hand with a look of pity.

"Such a big pearl, if it had no scratches, would be worth at least 100 taels of silver. It's a pity."

"Dad, you are well-informed. Is there any way to remedy this pearl? Can it be repaired?" Ye Qingqing held the pearl and looked at Tangshan expectantly.

Tangshan shook his head, "Pearls are not like gold or silver. They can be melted and remade into jewelry. They can only be inlaid with things and covered with the back to make jewelry or ornaments."

"But the scratches on it are so long, I don't know if the inlay can cover them, otherwise I can only grind them into pearl powder."

Tangshan also felt very distressed. With such a long scratch, it would probably be difficult to make it into jewelry or ornaments.

Compared to the two people with sad faces, Tang Xiaojing on the big bed was lucky.

After taking away the strange thing, Tang Xiaojing found a white jade hairpin in the gap of the bed board below.

The hairpin was so long and thin that it just happened to be stuck in the gap of the bed board, and it was blocked by the strange wood carving.

Tang Xiaojing said nothing, wiped the hairpin on his body, and then quietly put the hairpin together with the silver earrings he found just now, thinking of giving Ye Qingqing a surprise later.

After putting the things away, Tang Xiaojing saw that the bedding and pillows on the floor and bed were all made of excellent fabrics.

He didn't want to reuse the bedding that others had slept on, but it would be a pity to throw it away, so Tang Xiaojing carried everything into the hall.

Don't waste it. Send it to a pawn shop later along with the carpet and sell it. The money from the sale will probably be enough to buy some ordinary bedding.

The three of them searched the house several times, but never found the second gold earring and the second silver earring.

After coming out of the house, the three of them went to the main room next door.

This house is larger than the one we inspected just now, and it is more gorgeous inside. It is also divided into an inner room and an outer room. At a glance, you can tell that it is where the second son of the Guan family lives.

There was no desk in the outer room, but a very large soft couch.

There is a small table in front of the soft couch, and a simple wooden chessboard is placed on the table.

The chessboard looks a bit old, but the Second Master Guan is so extravagant, it must not be something simple.

Tangshan took a closer look at the chessboard, but didn't see anything, so he stuffed it into the sack.

He couldn't understand it either. He could just take it to a few more pawn shops and ask.

There is also a tall wooden shelf on the side of the table, but it is empty. It seems that there should be a lot of valuable things on it.

As soon as Ye Qingqing looked at this large soft couch, he guessed that it must not be used for any serious purpose.

Afraid of encountering something strange again, he pushed Tang Xiaojing over to check, while he rummaged around in front of the shelf on the side.

"Qingqing, you are too timid." Tang Xiaojing looked at Ye Qingqing with a smile.

"Shut up and don't talk."

Tangshan glanced at the young couple. They were newlyweds, and they were looking after each other. He suddenly felt that he was an eyesore.

So Tangshan silently went into the inner room, leaving the outer room to the young couple.
