1065: Chapter 1065: Too Childish (3) 1065: Chapter 1065: Too Childish (3) After collecting those ginseng and radishes, Yang Ruxin began to sort through the items she had taken from Zhao Yicong and Zhuang Shiâs study.
The number of items in their studies was truly astounding; there was an array of books totaling in the hundreds, and no small number of the Four Treasures of the Studyâperfect for the little ones to practice writing and reading.
There were also numerous decorative pieces, such as a Jade Buddha Hand, a Jade Longevity Star, a Glazed BottleâŠ
all of very high value.
There was even a camphor wood chest filled with paintings and calligraphy.
She even poured out hundreds of pearls from a porcelain vase on the Bogu Rack; each the size of a thumb, uniform in colour and lusterâclearly of considerable worthâŠ
âItâs really true what they say, âAfter three years as a Magistrate, one accumulates silver as numerous as snowflakes.'â Yang Ruxin remarked while sorting, âGiven the County Magistrateâs worth, it is really quite extraordinaryâŠ
There is a lock here tooâŠâ Inside a cushion in there, she unexpectedly found a box with a lock on it, âMaybe thereâs some secret in here.
I should hand it over to Gu Qingheng to unlock.â
Besides such a box, she also found a list of sorts, which she couldnât quite understand, but because it was so secretive, she decided to show it to Gu Qingheng as well, since he knew a lot and might be able to guess its purpose.
Then, seeing there wasnât anything else of value, she moistened the lips of the woman lying unconscious in the space before swiftly exiting.
The night passed without incident.
The next morning, after everyone had breakfast, they started moving towards Qinglian Temple.
What had been three carriages became five, and there were six more horse-riding guards.
âGodmother, although you seem a bit tired, thereâs a charm about your eyes,â Yang Ruxin teased Yuan Mengzhu before getting on the carriage, âSeems goddad is quite impressive, hahaâŠâ
âYou little wretch, even daring to tease your godmother!â Yuan Mengzhuâs face turned red as she slapped Yang Ruxinâs hand, âSoon youâll be married too, weâll see if youâre embarrassed thenâŠâ
âOh my, Godmother, Iâm a Doctor, you know, Iâm not teasing you, Iâm serious.â Yang Ruxin hugged Yuan Mengzhuâs arm, âYou and goddad are still young.
Itâs perfectly fine to have another little brother or sister.
Just remember the ovulation period I told you about, youâre more likely to conceive thenâŠâ
âYou little devil, got it!â Yuan Mengzhuâs face reddened even further.
Yang Ruxin then pulled a face and climbed onto the carriage, Yu Qingge urgently followed, âSis, youâre quite the flirtâŠâ
âIâm a DoctorâŠâ
âGive it a rest, Heihei,â Yu Qingge snorted, âWonder how your brother-in-law will deal with youâŠâ
âWhy wouldnât I be the one dealing with your brother-in-law?â Yang Ruxin raised an eyebrow slightly.
âWow, sis, that would be so awesome.â Yu Qingge immediately gave a thumbs up.
âBy the way, isnât that Ze brother of mine a good catch?â Yang Ruxin changed the topic, âYou couldnât possibly have more complaints now, could you?â
âYouâre not saying he was the one you set me up with, are you?â
âMm-hmm,â Yang Ruxin nodded, âHeâs young, good-looking, plus heâs a second-generation officialâŠâ
âAiyo, that little kid is too childish,â Yu Qingge frowned in disdain, âHow could such a one be a husband?
Heâs more like a younger brotherâŠâ
âThen you might as well be single for life,â Yang Ruxin waved her hand dismissively, âDonât come to me anymore; I donât have anyone betterâŠâ
âYou, youâŠâ
âSister Qingge isnât interested; letâs introduce him to someone else then.â Sanni suddenly looked up, giving Yang Ruxin a sly wink.
