Chapter 220: Trap Box
The wife of Chen Changqing's family in Chenjia Village got sick since she went back on the day of killing the pig. She couldn't get off the kang until the Chinese New Year. The village chief's wife was actually quite panicked, just for fear that the old woman would touch their porcelain.
After all, they all took action that day. Although they just wanted to teach a lesson, they dared to take action seriously, but the old woman had cheated people again and again.
Who knew that she would wait, wait, and I didn’t see the old woman coming out to act evilly until the Chinese New Year. After so many days, even if she wanted to cheat others, she wouldn’t be afraid.
From the day Mrs. Chen returned home, life began to be difficult. The old man punished people the same way as those officials in ancient times. He could not find any wounds, but it made people worse than death.
The Lou Chunyue these days, and originally wanted to go back to the county, but later, because he killed the pig for two days and processed the pork ribs, he had no spare time these days, so he didn't go back.
It is the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month today, and there is still no news from Lou Yunhua. Lou Manyue is even more worried. She simply has to go back to the county no matter what major happens today.
After Lou Manyue got up, she hurriedly rode her bicycle out of the village. Lou Yueru wanted to ask him a few words, but she didn't stop and left.
"My Moon Girl, where are you going so early?" Aunt Li looked at his back as he rode out and asked in confusion.
"When I returned to my county home, Yunhua's father had said before that he would come back for the New Year, but today it was twenty-seven, and there was no news at all. She must be very worried." Lou Yueru had just brushed her teeth and was talking to them while washing her face.
In fact, she was also worried that as soon as the full moon was in the morning, she immediately followed her, but she still couldn't keep up. There was no way, so she could only wait here, otherwise she would ride a bicycle to the county by herself, and she was just anxious to wait at home.
After Lou Manyue rode his bicycle out of the village, he found a secret place, put the bicycle back into space, injected spiritual power into his feet, ran directly, and soon arrived at his home in his heart.
It was still the same as they left that day, and the door lock was opened. It might be that Grandma Zhou next door came to show her the fire of drying clothes.
Lou Manyue opened the lock and entered the door and began to carefully search for traces. Except for the room where she was baking clothes, the kang fire had already been extinguished and the clothes were still hanging.
This father's words are so unreliable. He agreed that he would only have twenty-nine years of coming back before the Chinese New Year, which means that the Chinese New Year will be held in two days. People have not seen it yet, and I don't know if they have left a letter.
Lou Manyue went back to the main hall and entered his father's room. The thing in the secret wall that his father asked him to see before had been taken away. Lou Manyue touched it and took out two pieces of letter paper and a small box.
The small box was only the size of a palm. After taking it out, Lou Manyue carefully observed it and found that it was a box with a small mechanism. It could not be opened according to the original way of opening the box. It had mechanisms on it.
Lou Manyue took the two pieces of letter paper and the small box out of the room, locked the door again, went back to the main hall, sat in the room, and studied it carefully, the small box.
The pattern on the small box is an ancient dragon and phoenix auspicious pattern. The front, back, left and right sides of the box are exquisitely carved auspicious cloud pictures. The back is not shirtless, but some flowers, plants and vines. The carving is fine and smooth, and it looks like a very simple thing.
Lou Manyue observed carefully and found that the material of this box was made of golden nanmu. No wonder the box was still heavy in its hands, and I didn’t know what it contained inside.
"Daughter, this is a New Year gift from my father. The task has not been completed yet. I may not be able to come back for the time being. Sorry, I can't come back to celebrate the New Year with you."
Lou Manyue was a little depressed when she saw the content on the letter paper. She thought she would come here and someone would accompany her to celebrate the New Year, but she ended up being alone again.
Another piece of letter paper is a piece of paper that is a bit yellow on it. This is a land deed, a single-family villa in Mingzhu Garden in Shanghai. This is a small villa next to the concession. Before, they went to Haishi. Some people heard that the houses in Mingzhu Garden were all lived in by rich people.
What kind of work is the original father doing? How could he get a villa in Mingzhu Garden after a mission?
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore, so I’d better study what mechanism does this small box have?
Just looking at the surface, it is really complete, like a whole piece of wood, tightly sewn.
Lou Manyue did not use his mental power to investigate, so there would be no surprises.
Lou Manyue first carefully touched the small box, and then used his naked eyes to see if there were any different parts in the patterns?
When she watched it for the second time, she finally saw the flowers and plants on the back, there were four flowers inside, with different varieties, but the middle part of their flower heart was a little loose.
Lou Manyue stretched out four fingers and pressed the place where he could move at the same time. Sure enough, with a click on the side of the lid, the box lid popped out by itself.
Lou Manyue looked at the things in the box in surprise and wanted to laugh a little. This father actually put two ceramic dolls in it? He also used such a small box with such a precise mechanism.
However, these two ceramic dolls are really cute. They should be pinched according to the face shapes of her and Yueru. They were wearing cute plaid clothes and smiling so hard that their eyes narrowed into a crescent shape.
There was also a note under the two little babies' bodies, "Apology gift and Yue Ru are the same. This is what I personally pinched according to the face shapes of you two."
"Dad, you lied to me and agreed to come back to celebrate the New Year with me, but I was the only one left for the New Year this year." When Lou Manyue thought of being another person during the New Year, she suddenly felt a little sad.
I have been celebrating the New Year alone for so many years. I thought that I had a father here, which was also considered a family. Who knew that this father was so unreliable? I would not come back during the New Year.
Lou Manyue was disappointed and walked around the house. After cleaning up the dust, she was ready to stay here. It was the Chinese New Year, so it was hard to stay in other people's houses all the time.
I flipped through some vegetables, fruits, rice, flour, grain and oil in the space. I haven't fired here for many days, and many things have to be remade. There is still a lot of honeycomb coal left, and I didn't use a lot of it when I bought it before.
There is no vegetable garden in the yard here, so all the vegetables have to be made from the space. After ordering honeycomb coal, I got some ribs from the space to stew bone soup.
I made some pork and beef stuffing in the space and prepared to make dumplings. Grandma Zhou next door was not here when she came back and didn't know where she went. Sister Ru would definitely chase after her later. Now I'll handle it first. I'll make some dumplings later and let her take them back.
