The happy little days of the Ye family

Ye Qingqing lay under the bed and carefully tapped on each bed board.

Finally, I found a piece of wood at the end of the bed that had a different sound and was relatively loose.

The bed board felt shaky to the touch, as if it would fall down soon.

"This board doesn't look right."

Ye Qingqing felt happy and quickly tapped twice more.

The sound does sound a little different from the other wooden boards nearby.

Ye Qingqing was so excited that his palms were sweating, and he couldn't help but murmured excitedly:

"There must be something inside. Is there a bank note hidden inside? I'm going to make a fortune!"

Ye Qingqing held on to the wooden board and easily removed it without exerting much force.

But after the boards were removed, nothing fell.

Ye Qingqing patted the bed board hard on his head, and then dust fell on his face.

"Bah bah bah."

Ye Qingqing wiped the dust on his face with his sleeves in embarrassment, and could hardly open his eyes.

Ye Qingqing did not give up and carefully checked behind the wooden board and the surrounding wooden boards. There was indeed nothing hidden.

The bright smile on Ye Qingqing's face could no longer be maintained.

Ye Qingqing didn't know how to put the removed wooden board back together, so he had to throw the wooden board out from under the bed.

There was no joy, but Ye Qingqing felt a little unhappy, and accidentally threw the board with a little more force.

Unexpectedly, Tang Xiaojing happened to pass by the bed and was hit on the calf by a wooden board thrown by Ye Qingqing.

As soon as Tang Xiaojing came down from the beam, he found nothing and didn't say anything. As soon as he came down, he was hit in the calf by a wooden board that flew out from under the bed.

"Who plotted against me?"

Tang Xiaojing covered his calf, bent down and looked under the bed, and saw Ye Qingqing looking at him with a guilty look on his face, and his big round eyes blinking.

Tang Xiaojing's anger disappeared immediately, and he even comforted Ye Qingqing:

"It's okay. My skin is thick, so it doesn't hurt at all."

Seeing that Tang Xiaojing was okay, Ye Qingqing got back under the bed with peace of mind and continued to search.

Seeing that Ye Qingqing had gone back under the bed, Tang Xiaojing secretly rubbed the hit calf twice.

Actually it still hurts.

Not long after, Ye Qingqing got out from under the bed empty-handed.

The wing was not big, and there were few rooms in it. Ye Qingqing and the others searched it in no time.

The three of them went to another wing room.

The second wing is a little simpler than the first one. It only has a large bed, a wardrobe and a set of tables and chairs, but no dressing table.

And the furniture inside is very shabby.

Ye Qingqing opened the closet. There were clothes in two sizes. It seemed that there should be two people living there.

Judging from the color and style of the clothes, they should be a little girl and a woman.

There were not many clothes in the wardrobe, only seven or eight sets for two people in total. The clothes were almost white after washing, and there were patches on them.

The looser clothes smelled like oily smoke, so it looked like she was the cook.

Ye Qingqing found a handkerchief among the clothes that smelled of oil smoke, and there was something wrapped in the handkerchief.

Ye Qingqing opened the handkerchief excitedly, and was surprised to find a few pastries wrapped inside.

Ye Qingqing looked at the two broken pastries and said with a smile:

"No wonder the clothes are so big. She must be a fat cook who loves to eat."

After searching the clothes, Ye Qingqing took all the clothes and put them at the door. When he went back, he took them to the pawn shop to sell them.

After coming back, Ye Qingqing got into the closet again. The closet was not big and the materials were poor. It didn't have drawers like the room just now.

Ye Qingqing completed the search in a few seconds and found nothing.

Ye Qingqing brought a chair over, stood on the chair and looked above the wardrobe. Unexpectedly, there was a small cloth bag on the top of the wardrobe.

Moreover, the way this small cloth bag was tied up, Ye Qingqing felt that it was a bit like the small cloth bag found in the kitchen.

After opening the small cloth bag, there was indeed some food inside, including a large piece of bacon, two sausages and a small handful of red dates.

Looking at the bacon in the bag, Ye Qingqing was amused, "This cook seems to have eaten a lot."

Although I didn't find any silver, it was good to find bacon and sausages, which was better than nothing.

Ye Qingqing rewrapped the bacon and sausage with a smile, and then stuffed it into his sack.

Ye Qingqing turned to look at the table next to him. There was only a tea set on it, one of the cups had a small opening missing, and the chair was in tatters.

"They're both places where maids live. Why is there such a big difference in treatment?"

Ye Qingqing was very puzzled. The first wing room was better than many houses in the village.

However, Ye Qingqing didn't dwell on this issue too much. He squatted under the table and rummaged hard for useful things.

Unfortunately, nothing was found except a dusting of hands.

Although Tangshan suffered a serious injury on his leg and walked with a slight limp, his skills were still very good.

Stepping on the table, he climbed up onto the rafter very nimbly.

No money was found, but Tangshan found half a package of peach cakes on the beam.

When Ye Qingqing saw the peach cake that Tang Shan had taken from the beam, he guessed that it must have been hidden by the greedy cook.

There is a large bed at the end of the room. There is a thin sheet on the bed. The sheet has been washed white and has a few patches on it.

The sheet was very thin. Tang Xiaojing touched it with his hand and found that there was nothing hidden inside.

In addition to the sheets, there were two pillows on the bed, and Tang Xiaojing also took apart the pillows.

The quilt on the bed was still patched. Tang Xiaojing didn't have any hope at first, so he just took off the pillow.

Unexpectedly, I found several pieces of broken silver in one of the pillows, totaling 5 taels of silver.

Tang Xiaojing held a few broken pieces of silver and was so happy that he could hardly close his mouth.

The things in the house were in tatters, so Tang Xiaojing was quite surprised by the five taels of silver.

However, some people are worried about the people who used to live here. Why didn't they take away the money they finally saved?

The bed was covered with a bamboo mat with holes. Tang Xiaojing saw that the bamboo mat was broken, so he simply took it off.

Naturally, Tang Xiaojing didn't let go of him under the bed, but unfortunately he didn't find anything.

As soon as Tang Xiaojing got out from under the bed, Dahuang picked up a dirty sock from nowhere and put it directly on his feet.

"Dahuang, are you itchy?"

Tang Xiaojing was furious when he saw the dirty socks on his feet. He kicked the dirty socks away, and then slapped Dahuang's big butt with his backhand.

Seeing Dahuang stupidly trying to lick him with the same mouth that had bitten the dirty socks, he quickly pushed Dahuang away.

"Don't come here!"

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Huang came in triumphantly with something in his mouth and wagging his big tail.
