This is the anti-theft badge
"Dong!"
The object that fell from the roof,
It landed squarely on his head.
Jia Baobao: "..."
Jia Huan: "..."
Jia Baobao: "Listen to me,
I... I really didn't do it on purpose. "
Jia Huan raised his head. His face was covered in blood.
His dark eyes stared straight at Jia Baobao,
As if to say, "Just you wait."
Jia Huan opened his mouth. "You... you..."
Jia Baobao said sadly, "Don't worry, go,
I'm here. "
Jia Huan: "..."
He was almost angered to death.
Jia Huan's eyes widened,
His fingers scratched the ground,
He struggled to crawl in her direction, like an evil spirit coming for revenge.
Jia Baobao hurriedly took a step back.
When Jia Huan crawled over, he accidentally touched the bundle that had fallen from the beam.
The bundle spread out,
A few ingots of gold rolled out of the bundle and rolled all the way to the tip of her shoes.
The system said coldly, "Tsk, should I say that your luck is too good, or should I say that his luck is too bad?"
Jia Huan finally crawled to her feet. He reached out and grabbed her ankle tightly.
He said fiercely, "Call for help!"
After that,
His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Jia Baobao looked at Jia Huan and then at the gold.
"This belongs to the Jia Prefecture's assets, right?"
System: "You, what are you going to do?"
Jia Baobao thought for a moment,
He picked up the entire bundle and rummaged through it,
It was indeed full of gold.
Who on earth was so generous?
As she thought, she opened the window behind the ancestral hall and swung her arm that was holding the bundle with all her might.
The bundle drew a beautiful arc in the air.
It crashed into the pond with a "Plop".
Jia Baobao clapped his hands,
"Today's money-losing mission is considered completed, right?"
The system was dumbfounded.
Jia Baobao turned around with a smile.
His expression changed, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Someone come quickly! Help! "
Upper Room, Main Room.
Jia Zheng slammed the table. "What the hell is going on?"
Jia Baobao stood obediently at the door and said honestly, "I don't know why a big lump of gold suddenly fell from the roof and hit Brother Huan's head."
Jia Zheng scrutinized her. "Why is there gold?"
"I don't know about that."
"Don't tell me it was you …"
Jia Baobao said innocently, "Master, look at how extravagant I am. Do I look like someone who can save such a big pile of gold?"
That's true.
Jia Zheng stroked his beard.
He had long heard of Jia Baoyu's reputation as a philanthropist. How could he still have so much money when he gave away everything in his family to others? Then who could hide so much money in the ancestral hall? If it could be hidden here, it was obvious that the money was not clean.
After a while, a servant hurried over and bowed to Jia Zheng.
"How is it?" Jia Zheng asked in a low voice.
The servant glanced at Bao Erye and whispered, "I didn't find anything on the floor of the ancestral hall."
Jia Zheng's expression suddenly became ugly. "Then …"
The servant took a deep breath. "But I found traces of something hidden on the beam, and there were also bite marks from mice."
Hidden something? Who could hide so much gold in the ancestral hall? Where did the gold come from? If it could be hidden here, it was obvious that the money was not clean.
Jia Zheng thought for a while. "Then …"
The servant continued, "Also, I found this on the roof beam."
As he spoke, the servant opened his palm, and there was a Gold Ingot in his palm.
Jia Zheng's expression became uglier and uglier. He stared at the servant.
The servant blinked his small eyes and asked in confusion, "Master?"
"Are you done?"
The servant: "Ah, I'm done."
"Is there anything else?"
The servant shook his head. "No."
Jia Zheng: "Well then, get out and kneel outside the door. Next time, remember to finish everything in one go!"
The servant: "…"
He retreated with a pained expression.
"Wait." Jia Zheng stopped him again.
Jia Zheng pointed at the table. "Put the Gold Ingot down."
The last glimmer of hope in the servant's eyes disappeared. He obediently put down the Gold Ingot, walked to the door, and knelt down.
Jia Baobao was closer to the door, and he heard the servant muttering, "Master didn't finish everything in one go himself. He even criticized others …"
"Ahem." Jia Baobao coughed softly.
The servant's shoulders shrank and he stopped talking.
Jia Zheng stared at the Gold Ingot on the table, his fingers tapping on the table.
After a while, he raised his head and said to Jia Baoyu, "You …"
"Second Brother!" A man rushed over and interrupted Jia Zheng's words once again.
Jia Zheng was worn out. He glanced at the door, waved his sleeves, and covered the Gold Ingot directly.
Jia Baobao: "…"
She turned to look at the door.
It was Jia Xie. His collar was still unadjusted. It was obvious that he had just gotten the news and hurriedly got out of bed to join in the fun.
So enthusiastic?
Jia Xie's body was still a mosaic. Jia Baobao glanced at him and didn't look anymore.
Jia Zheng stood up. "Brother, why are you here?"
Jia Xie paused and smiled. "I heard that something happened in our ancestral hall, so I wanted to come and take a look. How is it? What happened? "
Jia Zheng thought for a while and said casually, "The servants who cleaned the ancestral hall were lazy and didn't clean the hall properly. They attracted a mouse, and the mouse on the beam accidentally fell and hit the Huai Geer."
Jia Xie didn't believe him. "Hit the head?"
Jia Zheng nodded. "Yes, Brother Huan is not in good health."
How could he say that?! Even if he wasn't in good health, how could his head be hit by a mouse? How fragile would his skull be?
Jia Xie smiled awkwardly. "Second Brother, you must be joking."
Jia Zheng said seriously, "I'm not joking. I've already sent for the imperial physician."
"Oh, I see … Haha." Jia Xie walked out unsteadily.
Jia Zheng stopped him.
"Brother, you should go back and change your clothes."
"Huh?" Jia Xie didn't seem to understand.
Jia Zheng whispered, "Brother, whose room did you sleep in last night? Why are you fooling around with me, to the extent that your clothes …"
Jia Baobao's ears perked up.
Jia She looked down at his clothes, and his face instantly swelled to the color of a pig's liver.
"This … Cough! I'll go back now! "
"What? What happened to his clothes? "Jia Baobao was curious, but he couldn't see anything.
The System said, "Good boy, don't stare. It'll hurt your eyes."
Jia Baobao turned to stare at Jia Xie's back, and heard a serious cough.
She immediately turned back.
Jia Zheng asked in a low voice, "Did you find anything else in the ancestral hall?"
"Nothing."
Jia Zheng frowned. "Okay, you can go back first. Remember, don't tell anyone about what happened today. If anyone asks, just say that Brother Huan's head was hit by a mouse …"
He paused, and seemed to think that it was funny.
"Cough." His beard moved. "Forget it, just pretend that you don't know anything. You don't look very smart anyway."
Jia Baobao muttered in his heart, "Then you don't know how painful it is for me to pretend to be stupid!"
The System was shocked. "What? Are you faking it? "
Jia Baobao said, "… Please stay away from me."
Jia Zheng let her go back to the garden.
When she went out, she turned back to take a look.
Jia Zheng called a loyal servant and whispered a few words, and the servant ran in the direction that Jia Xie left.
"Sigh, no wonder they want me to be a prodigal. Such a small mansion has so many undercurrents, how could it not be destroyed?"
Jia Baobao went back to the garden, washed up, and got ready to sleep.
Just as she covered herself with the quilt, she suddenly called out, "Qing Wen, how did Nanny Li deal with that matter?"
Qing Wen sat on the footstool through the curtain and whispered, "She caught a little girl and threw her out. I heard that she was bought over by Concubine Zhao."
"What a coincidence, Concubine Zhao again?" Jia Baobao murmured and fell asleep.
Qing Wen stared blankly at Jia Baobao's face through the curtain. Unknowingly, she stared at him for half the night and fell asleep on the footstool when the sun was about to rise.
In the morning, Jia Baobao just got up and was still rinsing his mouth. Qing Wen leaned against the curtain and said, "Lady Wang sent Jin Chuan and Yu Chuan to visit Erye."
Jia Baobao spat out a mouthful of water and let She Yue wipe the corners of his mouth.
Jia Baobao looked straight at She Yue and said to Qing Wen, "Let them in."
She smiled and asked She Yue, "What Yan Zhi did you put on today? The color is so good."
She Yue blushed and whispered, "The outsiders are about to come in. What are you talking about?"
She wiped Jia Baobao's face with a handkerchief and pressed her fingers on his eyelids. "Where did you get this Yan Zhi? It can't be wiped off."
Jia Baobao didn't say anything, but there was a smile in his eyes.
She Yue pursed her lips. "You really … do you have to be like this? Okay, okay. "
She quickly stretched out her head and kissed Jia Baobao's cheek gently.
"I still have to meet people later. That's all for now …"
She Yue said helplessly, "Fortunately, Erye, you're a girl. Otherwise, how can you always eat your sister's Yan Zhi!"
Jia Baobao whispered to the System, "I don't want to either. This task has different requirements for men and women … Eh?"
She suddenly saw a small line of words on the "A Box of Mosaic Yan Zhi" card.
Was there really a hidden effect?
No, wait! The hidden effect's requirement was … a kiss?!
When they walked out of the room, Qin Keqing turned around and warned, "Nanny, you've been with me for so long. You know my temper. If you think that you can manipulate me as you wish now that I've lost my power …"
Nanny knelt on the ground with a thud. She trembled and said, "M-Master, I wouldn't dare!"
Qin Keqing let her kneel for a while before he went forward to help Nanny up. He smiled and comforted her gently, "Nanny, please get up. You're also an old woman. You've been with me during my most dangerous times. How can I not know that your heart is with me?"
He squeezed her arm tightly and smiled even more brightly. "… You won't betray me."
Nanny was frightened by his soft and hard attitude. She trembled like a quail and didn't dare to say anything.
Qin Keqing's eyes searched her face. He said slowly, "Go and tell Lady Wang that Baoyu is resting with me. Tell her not to worry."
Nanny quickly nodded. "Okay, I'll go now."
"Wait." Qin Keqing used a white jade hairpin to tie up his loose hair. "You came here in a hurry just to say this?"
Nanny hurriedly said, "It's Master Xiao Rong, he … he takes all the dirty and smelly things into his arms outside …"
