Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

But after I pried it hard a few times, the stone actually rolled to the side and rolled to the corner of the wall.

Gu Qingzhi was satisfied.

Great, this stone is finally no longer an eyesore in the middle of the vegetable garden.

Just leave it in the corner and let it fend for itself.

Happy Gu Qingzhi ran to where the big rock was and turned around a few times with a smile on her face.

Ahaha, that’s not the case.

She took a look and found that it was because the stone was not buried that deep.

After Gu Yan came over after daydreaming, he also realized that they had taken it for granted. It turned out that the stones were only buried on the surface and were not rooted in the ground as they had imagined.

Gu Qingzhi was very excited. "Brother Gu Yan, let's turn over this land and plant some Chinese cabbage. We'll have food to eat in a month or so."

Gu Yan agreed without thinking too much.

He could never refuse Gu Xiaojiaojiao's request.

He brought the tools, and the two of them, one using a hoe and the other using a shovel, soon had almost turned over the vacant land.

"Huh?" Gu Qingzhi exclaimed.

Gu Yan, who was swinging a hoe quickly at the other end, heard this and immediately threw away the hoe nervously and ran over, "What's wrong?"

Gu Qingzhi shoveled twice more and finally said with certainty, "Brother Gu Yan, there seems to be something underneath."

What? ? ? ?

Gu Yan took the shovel and said, "I'll do it. You stand aside."

Gu Qingzhi hurriedly stood aside, her eyes fixed on Gu Yan... and the shovel in his hand.

Soon, as more and more parts were unearthed, a golden box appeared in front of them, with a layer of blue bricks buried around the box.

Gu Qingzhi opened her watery eyes wide? ? ? ! ! !

What is this? Could it be a family heirloom of the Gu family?

Gu Yan was also very surprised. He had never heard of anything hidden in the Gu family's backyard. What was in there? He couldn't help but speed up his men.

Finally, four identical wooden boxes were dug out.

Gu Yan walked around them and said solemnly, "This is golden nanmu."

Golden nanmu? Gu Qingzhi was greatly shocked.

Even though she was young and ignorant and knew very little, she had still heard of the great name of golden nanmu. This wood is very valuable and is the first choice for coffins of emperors and generals. It is said that it can last for a thousand years without rotting.

Gu Qingzhi ran away quickly, "I'll go call my mother over."

How did such a valuable box come to be unearthed in my backyard? If the box is so valuable, what is inside it?

Gu Yan was also extremely shocked.

Now it seems that the big rock just serves as a blind spot.

After all, if it weren't for Gu Qingzhi, he wouldn't be bored enough to pry the stone.

Then the box underneath it will never see the light of day.

Second Aunt knows what is going on.

The answer is that Gu Wangshi doesn’t know either.

She looked at the boxes on the ground and thought, "Qing'er, let's find a way to open these boxes and take a look."

The cabinets are made of golden nanmu, and the things inside must be very special.

Gu Qingzhi glanced at Gu Yan. There was a lock on the box, but she knew it shouldn't be a problem for her smart cousin.

Gu Yan received Gu Qingzhi's gaze and was very confused. The next moment he heard, "Brother Gu Yan, this Kongming lock shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

Gu Yan's dark eyes flashed. How did she know that I could do this?

Gu Wangshi was also slightly surprised. She really didn't expect that the official had this nephew. "Then I'll have to trouble Erlang."

Gu Yan was stunned, with a complicated expression. He didn't expect that Second Aunt would believe it just like that.

Without time to think, he quickly stepped forward and took a closer look. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "This is the eighteen-hook lock that was popular in the previous dynasty."

But now few people can solve it, so not many people use it.

He had studied it and was able to solve it, but it would take more time.

"Second Aunt and Sister Qingzhi, please take a break first. It will take some time to unlock this lock."

Sister Qingzhi?

Gu Qingzhi smacked her lips in her heart. This seemed to be the first time that Brother Gu Yan called her like that. And it sounded quite nice.

Unexpectedly, this nephew really understood. Gu Wangshi couldn't help but ask, "How long will it take?"

Gu Yan calculated in his mind and gave a more specific time, "I estimate it will take about 25 minutes."

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed Gu Qingzhi's gaze, which seemed to contain a hint of surprise and indifference. How to put it, it gave him the feeling that why did it take so long.

He almost laughed in anger.

When he first came into contact with the Lu Ban lock, it took him half an hour to unlock one of these locks. Now he can unlock four locks in just quarter of an hour, which is the result of his diligent study.

Not to mention, when he hadn't dropped out of school yet, his classmates would take half a day just to unlock a lock simpler than this!

Do you really think Luban lock is so easy to open?

But Gu Qingzhi had different ideas. She had seen Gu Yan unlocked in his later years, but she ignored the fact that Gu Yan was only a 15-year-old boy. How could he be compared with him when he was 30 years old?

People's experience and knowledge also need to be accumulated over time.

Hearing that it would take fifteen minutes, Gu Wangshi planned to go back to the front yard first as she still had some embroidery work to finish.

Gu Qingzhi also had no intention of watching Gu Yan unlock the lock here. She had seen too many of these when she was a ghost in her previous life.

Taking this opportunity, she planned to go back and make some sweet soup or something.

Since we didn't know what was inside, we couldn't move rashly.

The two of them said something to Gu Yan and returned to the front yard together, leaving Gu Yan alone to unlock the door.

Gu Yan didn't know what to say for a moment. This mother and daughter were really generous. How could they trust him like this?

Uh, never mind. There’s no point in thinking too much. He also wants to know what’s inside.

Besides, the look in Princess Gu’s eyes just now irritated him. Two quarters of an hour? It shouldn’t take him more than two quarters of an hour!

Gu Qingzhi returned to the front yard and told Gu Wangshi that she wanted to make mung bean paste.

Although it is already the end of August, the weather is still scorching hot. After being busy in the backyard for a whole morning, Gu Qingzhi felt very hot and couldn't help but miss the cool mung bean soup.

After hearing this, Gu Wang rolled up her sleeves and was about to go into the kitchen, but Gu Qingzhi stopped her and said she wanted to do it herself.

"Mother, this is easy. I can do it myself. Don't you have some embroidery work to do? Just come over here."

Gu Wang thought about it and agreed reluctantly.

It is indeed not difficult to make mung bean paste. Qing'er is already 11 years old, and it is time for him to learn some household chores.

If there is anything wrong, she will point it out in time.

Gu Qingzhi went into the kitchen, found the clay pot and took out the mung beans.

Before making mung bean paste, you need to wash the mung beans clean, then add clean water and cook on high heat until they are about 60% cooked. Then remove from the heat and let them dry for a while. Then pour them into a bamboo sieve and wipe off the skin. Then pour them back into the pot, add water and cook on low heat until they are melted. At this time, filter out the mung bean juice with a gauze bag, boil it, and finally take out the granulated sugar and add it.
