Chapter 168: A Massive Fortune
But even if the Jiang family suspected that ngyu had discovered their treasure box and stolen it, it was rely a guess without any evidence.
Moreover, with the testimony of neighbors today, they dared not bla ngyu for the theft of the treasure box.
However, the lack of proof did not an they accepted it, nor did it prevent them from retaliating against ngyu.
Li Chunhua said, “Just do as that person instructed.”
ngyu could imagine just how frustrated Li Chunhua would be after discovering the loss of the tal box.
But she had no regrets. She didn’t even think she shouldn’t take the contents of the box.
Because the box belonged to Li Baoxiang, and he hadn’t given it to Li Chunhua. Before Li Baoxiang died, he hadn’t allowed his descendants to claim this treasure box back.
Therefore, the treasure was considered unclaid, and it wasn’t wrong for her to take it. Moreover, since Li Baoxiang died because of this treasure, by taking it, Li Chunhua considered it as avenging Li Baoxiang.
She planned to give so money to Li Baoxiang’s children later on, which should be considered completely fulfilling her moral obligations.
Gu Dongxing saw the strange smile that stayed on ngyu’s face, glanced at her, and said, “Why do I feel like you look like a little cat that has stolen a canary?”
ngyu instantly exploded, “Brother Gu, you’re actually comparing to a cat? You’re the cat, your whole family are cats!”
Gu Dongxing hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, I’m a cat, okay now?”
ngyu had just cald down a bit when Gu Dongxing added, “Our whole family are cats, and now you live with , so, you’re also a cat!”
ngyu felt there was sothing odd about his words, but she couldn’t refute them. After all, she had been the one to call his whole family cats, and he had offered her a ho, which she had accepted.
As a result, she found herself unable to point out any mistake in his statent.
Actually, she had been trapped by his offer to give her a ho, but, sotis clever and sly as a fox, other tis adorably foolish, she didn’t realize it.
Gu Dongxing’s lips curled up slightly, his heart leaping with joy.
They had lunch outside and then returned to the courtyard.
ngyu went straight back to her room, “Don’t call for , I’m going to take a nap.”
She even forgot that normally she would send Gu Dongxing out of the room before falling asleep.
Gu Dongxing felt smug in his heart: She would gradually get used to his presence!
ngyu bolted the door and entered her space. She couldn’t wait to see the contents of the iron box.
The iron box was not large, thirty centiters long, fifteen centiters wide, and fifteen centiters high.
But when she twisted off the lock of the iron box and opened it, she was still a bit surprised.
The box was divided into three compartnts, with the middle compartnt neatly filled with half a compartnt of gold bars!
ngyu had an extraordinary fondness for gold, and naturally noticed the gold at first glance. She counted them, a total of twenty bars, each weighing ten taels.
Of course, this was the old asurent of ten taels, which actually weighs about 830 grams each.
Just the gold alone weighed over ten pounds, no wonder the iron box felt heavy in her hands.
The compartnt on the left contained various gemstones; there were rubies, sapphires, eralds, and also rough jade stones, with more than ten pieces.
The compartnt on the right was full of finished jewelry. There were hairpins, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, all very exquisite. There were all sorts including gold, silver, jade, hawksbill turtle shell, etc., completely filling the compartnt.
She poured out all the items because, according to her mories from her previous life, this little box had a secret layer.
After so fiddling, she finally opened the secret compartnt.
