"Uncle, there is nothing unusual here."
"Uncle! There is a box here." A guard handed the wooden box to Du Jiu. Du Jiu looked at it for a while, thinking that it might really be an ordinary box, and then carefully opened the wooden box.
Huang Cancan's golden cakes were neatly stacked in a thick layer, and there were various colored gems scattered in the corners and crevices, causing Du Jiu to blink several times.
"Uncle, uncle, they are really here to bury the treasure." Du Jiu has never felt so absurd before. Are the people of Jingting Hou's house full of food? !
Have money and nowhere to spend, go to the mountains and forests to bury treasures to play
Rong Xia looked at the box of golden gems, not knowing what language to use to describe it, her jade-like face was sluggish for a moment.
"Uncle, it seems that they really didn't lie, they should have entered here by mistake..." Du Jiu thought for a while, "Maybe it was because the last time when Ban Shizi buried the treasures, they were caught by you and failed, so this time they changed a place."
I just didn't expect to meet them again.
I heard that when the eldest princess married the Duke of Jingting, the red makeup was ten li, which attracted the whole city to watch. With such a wealthy mother, it is not uncommon for Jingting Hou to live a luxurious life, but if he has nothing to do, he runs out to bury the treasure, which is really a prodigal.
He heard that some merchants in the south were fighting for wealth, and when the tide was high, they threw gold and silver leaves into the water, causing the common people to jump into the water to salvage them, so many people drowned because of robbing gold and silver. Compared with those businessmen, Jing Ting Hou's thinking is more concerned with cause and effect, and his methods are much cleaner.
No matter how he thought about it, he still didn't quite understand the thoughts of these nobles.
"Put it away," Rong Xia put her hands behind her back, "Since those who are destined get it, I can be regarded as someone who is destined."
Du Jiu glanced at Uncle's expression, and after confirming that he was not joking, his expression was a little subtle.
"Uncle, there are still traces of soil movement in several places." The guards looked around, and the digger's concealment method was too low, so that people could see where the soil had been moved at a glance.
"Don't look at it," Rong Xia reached out and took out a piece of golden cake from the wooden box. The golden cake is in good condition, and one piece alone is enough to make ordinary people worry about food for ten years. The soil has been turned over."
"Yes."
Rong Xia put the golden cake back into the wooden box, and reached out to hold the wooden box from Du Jiu's hand. The box didn't look big, but it was quite heavy.
Looking at the uncle in a very good mood, Du Jiu always felt that this seemed a little unkind, but then he thought, anyway, the gold buried by the Ban family was waiting for someone who was destined. Slightly.
Yes, there is nothing wrong, their uncle is definitely not shameless!
In the Banjia Villa, the three members of the Ban family sat around the round table and sipped tea.
"It scared me to death just now," Ban Heng held the teacup with a pitiful look on his face, "Sister, you lied to me again."
"I'm sorry," Ban Hua felt a little guilty every time her younger brother took the blame. She folded her hands and looked at Ban Heng apologetically, "But I was so nervous at the time that I only thought about this, don't you? Be mad at me, okay?"
"Forget it, forget it, anyway, I'm a dandy, it doesn't matter that little thing." Ban Heng was most afraid of his sister looking at him pitifully.
"Brother Heng, thank you." Ban Hua filled Ban Heng with tea. "I'm just worried. After Cheng Anbo knows about this, will he dig out the things and take them to his own home?"
"How is it possible," Ban Heng waved his hand, "Uncle Rong is not such a person."
"Yes," Ban Huai nodded, "How could a gentleman like Uncle Rong do such a thing."
Ban Hua touched her nose, and it seemed that she treated the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. People like Uncle Rong are not short of silver flowers, so how can they care about the things they buried.
"It's late at night, go back to your room and go to sleep. I'll take you back tomorrow." Ban Huai pulled the back of his clothes. The clothes inside were soaked in the cold sweat that just came out, sticking sticky to his back and uncomfortable. Extremely.
In the early morning, the whole land was covered with thick fog. Ban Hua fastened on his cloak, turned over and rode his horse, and said to his father and younger brother, "It's foggy today. Don't ride too fast later, so as not to startle the horse."
Ban Huai and Ban Heng nodded obediently. On the issue of riding, the father and son only listened to Ban Hua.
The family of three took the guard along the official road for a short time when they heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from behind. Ban Huai was afraid that someone would take advantage of the fog to do bad things, so he asked one of the guards to look behind him.
After a while, the guard came back, and with him was a man riding a horse. The three Bans knew each other. It was Cheng Anbo's guard Du Jiu who insisted on sending them back last night.
"Guardian Du," Ban Hua glanced not far behind Du Jiu, "What a coincidence."
"I have seen the Marquis, the princess, the prince." Du Jiu got off the horse and saluted the three of them with fists.
"You don't have to pay attention to these things when you go out," Ban Huan looked at Du Jiu with a smile, "You are also going back to the city?"
"Back to the county master, I am escorting the uncle back to the city." Du Jiu looked at the smiling girl sitting on the horseback, even if he was not a lecherous person, he would inevitably be amazed, what a stunning woman. He is a rude man. He only thinks that if any man in the world is lucky enough to marry such a beautiful girl, even if he serves the lady every day, he should be willing to mirror painting.
"It turns out that Uncle Rong is also there." Ban Hua looked up and saw a group of people walking out of the thick fog. The leader was Rong Xia, who was riding a white horse and wearing a light crescent-colored brocade robe.
The two looked at each other, and Ban Hua gave each other a bright smile.
Rong Xia wanted to dismount to salute Ban Huai, but was stopped by Ban Huai. Rong Xia noticed that the order in which the three members of the Ban family rode on horseback was a bit strange. Ban Hua, a woman, walked in the front, but Ban Huai and Ban Heng followed, which was really unconventional.
However, he is not a nosy person. He exchanged a few words with Ban Huai and said, "The guards who were here last night disturbed everyone's Yaxing, and I will apologize to the three of them for them."
"Cough." Ban Huai coughed dryly. It's shameful to bring up such a thing, so why should he apologize
"Uncle Rong, this kind of thing can be regarded as elegant," Ban Hua controlled the speed of the horse, "It's just that we are bored and have fun, which makes you laugh."
"Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect. Today you plant a good cause, and tomorrow someone will get help because of your actions today. That is a good fruit. This is naturally an elegant thing." There are good fruits, good intentions are rewarded, and those who get treasures will definitely thank you."
Ban Hua opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word to refute. A scholar's mouth is really powerful. He can say a ridiculous thing so philosophically that even she almost believed it. This is the power of knowledge!
He glanced back at Ban Heng, looked at others, and then looked at himself, not ashamed.
Ban Heng turned his head, non-violent and non-cooperative, as if I couldn't understand and couldn't see.
"The county master," Rong Xia drove the horse half a horse away from Ban Hua, "I heard that you like white fox fur?"
Ban Hua turned her head to look at Rong Xia, she was so good-looking and always pleasing to the eye: "Well."
"There are a few intact fox skins down there. If the county master doesn't dislike it, I will let the servants bring it to you today," Rong Xia smiled, "Fox fur and beautiful women are just stunning."
The morning breeze rose, and the white fog wet Ban Hua's eyelashes. She blinked: "I really like the things, but I don't get paid for nothing. How could I be so embarrassed to accept the uncle's things."
"It's a good thank-you gift for the plate of dim sum two days ago," Rong Xia was still a half-horse distance away from Ban Hua, "The cakes in your house are very delicious, and the cooks in the lower house can't make this kind of thing. taste."
"You mean you want me to exchange the dim sum recipe for the fox fur with you?" Ban Hua suddenly realized, with a generous face, "Don't worry, when I get back to the mansion, let the servants bring the recipe to you. "
The smile on Rong Xia's face froze slightly, and then she smiled: "Then I would like to thank the princess."
On the other side, Ban Heng rode his horse to the side of Ban Huai and gave Ban Huai a wink.
This Uncle Rong, shouldn't he be interested in his sister
Ban Huai shook his head, this is unlikely.
Although Hua Hua is his own daughter, it is really not suitable for his daughter to be with Rong Junpo.
"The county master is very imposing when he draws a bow and shoots arrows. If you are a man, you will definitely be a great general."
"That may not be possible." Ban Hua shook his head very honestly.
"Why?" Rong Xia couldn't see the slightest hint of humility on Ban Hua's face.
"How hard is it in the barracks, if I were a man, I would be the prince of the Hou family now, surrounded by beautiful maids, sleeping on high pillows, such a comfortable life, but I can't figure out what to do, go to the barracks to endure hardship?" Ban Hua held his face with one hand, The tender cheeks look very cute, "All the soldiers who are willing to go to war are amazing, but I don't want to be them."
Rong Xia was silent for a moment, looked at the charming and naive woman in front of her, and said with a smile, "The princess is so calm."
"Life is only a few decades, come here as you please," Ban Hua said with a smile, "Who knows that one day I won't have the chance to open my eyes."
Rong Xia still smiled: "The county master can see clearly."
It's a pity that all living beings are suffering, how many people can see it through, and how many people do it without any scruples
The sun finally broke free of the thick fog and let the sun shine on the ground. Although there was not much temperature, it was able to disperse the boundless thick fog little by little.
Ban Hua held his horse whip and pointed forward: "The city gate is here."
At this time, at the city gate, a luxurious carriage was coming toward the outsiders. The carriage's symbol, Ban Hua, was known to be the family crest of the Shi family.
Thinking of Shi Feixian's secret promise to Rong Xia, Ban Hua couldn't help but look at Rong Xia.
Rong Xia didn't seem to see the carriage at the city gate, but after smiling at her, she turned her head to look into the distance.
