At the beginning, the little koi carp was grabbed by a wolf and became the favorite of the beasts.
Chapter 311 The jade is missing
The food at "The Best Restaurant in the World" was indeed delicious, and several people were so full that they were reluctant to leave.
When I left, I didn't forget to find a food box and bring some food to Mu Mu, who was watching the door at home.
On the way back, Jinbao kept shouting that he would take his aunt and uncle with him next time.
It seems that he really likes that place.
Seeing that his daughter and son love to eat so much, Mr. Zheng considered whether to open his own restaurant so that he could eat whatever he wanted from now on.
Once this thought arises, it becomes out of control.
The carriage stopped at the door of Lao Meng's house.
Zhao Yuqian jumped off the carriage and knocked on the door.
After knocking for a long time but no one answered, he pushed and the door opened.
"Why doesn't this kid lock the door?"
Zhao Yuqian muttered and walked into the yard.
Lao Meng and others also followed in.
"Mu Mu, we have brought you a lot of food, we are about to come out to eat."
Zhao Yuqian shouted loudly.
As a result, no one responded.
His heart trembled, and he turned to look at Lao Meng, suddenly having a bad feeling in his heart.
But he didn't dare to ask anything.
Lao Meng frowned and pushed open the door. There was no sound in the room.
Not only was there no sign of wood inside, but even the jade stones placed there were missing.
Although Zhao Yuqian was impatient, he did not want to embarrass Lao Meng. After all, the jade was lost together with his apprentice, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
Several people remained silent and searched inside and outside the house, but there were still no clues.
Everything in the house was neat and tidy. Except for a few pieces of jade and the treasures collected by Lao Meng, nothing else was moved.
This situation does not look like a thief's style at all. There is only one answer, and that is...
"Report to the official!"
Lao Meng, who had been stunned for a long time, finally spoke.
His voice was hoarse and low, and he looked older.
"Otherwise we should look for it again. Maybe it was a misunderstanding?" Zhao Yuqian couldn't bear to see him like this and comforted him.
Outsiders didn't know the relationship between the two of them, but he knew it well.
Although Mu Mu and Lao Meng are regarded as master and disciple, in reality they are almost like father and son.
Lao Meng never married, so he didn't have any children around him.
I thought I was going to die alone, but unexpectedly I picked up a child one winter.
So he and this child depended on each other, master and disciple.
This child is nothing but wood, which is why Zhao Yuqian feels relieved about him.
In his eyes, Mu Mu is Lao Meng's son.
He was also to blame for what happened today. Without those jade stones, the master and the disciple could still live as usual.
To him, all that was lost was the jade, but to Lao Meng, the relationship between father and son might just end...
Lao Meng was in a depressed mood. He sat on the chair without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.
Jinbao knew that the jade was lost, but he was not sad. The stone could be bought again, but the elder brother could not buy it.
She secretly took Xiao Jin out of the space and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Jin, are the treasures we bought yesterday still around?"
Xiao Jin stretched out his head and smelled it, then asked: "Jinbao, our baby won't be lost, right? Why does my smell become lighter?"
"It's lost. Can Xiao Jin take us back? Big brother is also lost with the baby."
Although Jinbao wanted to find the jade stones, she wanted to find the wood even more. She didn't want to see Grandpa Meng looking sad.
"Of course. It's not very far from here. We can just walk there."
Xiaojin licked his paws. For him, leading the way was a piece of cake.
Jinbao walked up to Wanniang and quietly tugged on her sleeve.
Wan Niang understood immediately, leaned down and asked softly: "What's wrong with Jin Bao? Did you find something?"
Jin Bao nodded, leaned into her ear and said softly: "Xiao Jin can lead us to find the jade."
Since Xiao Jin can still smell the smell of the baby, it must be nearby, and Grandpa Meng must be familiar with it.
Wan Niang was a little hesitant when she learned that Xiao Jin was leading the way.
After all, Xiao Jin is too special, and it will be safer if one less outsider knows about it.
After thinking about it for a long time, she pulled Zhao Yuqian aside and asked, "How is your relationship with him? Can he be trusted?"
Zhao Yuqian knew as soon as he heard that it was about Jinbao, otherwise his sister wouldn't be so nervous.
"I have known Lao Meng for many years. I accidentally saved his life before I got to know him. Based on my understanding of him, I can trust him."
Several years of friendship is enough to understand a person's character. He dare not tell others, but Lao Meng, he believes it from the bottom of his heart.
"Then you have to explain to him that not too many people know about Xiao Jin."
"You mean those jade stones are still nearby? Can Xiao Jin help us find them?" Zhao Yuqian asked in surprise.
Wan Niang nodded and looked back at Jin Bao.
Zhao Yuqian felt relieved and said, "Don't worry, I will make it clear to him."
After saying that, he pulled Lao Meng into the back room.
Lao Meng remained silent. There is a feeling that there is no greater grief than death.
"Lao Meng, there is something I want to tell you, but you have to keep it in your stomach and not let the second person know about it."
Zhao Yuqian looked at him solemnly, with a serious look on his face.
Lao Meng glanced at him weakly, "Then wouldn't it be safer if you didn't tell me?"
He didn't want to know anything now.
Zhao Yuqian resisted the urge to slap him and continued: "Do you still want to find your precious apprentice?"
When he mentioned his apprentice, Lao Meng grabbed his arm excitedly, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
"Can you find him?"
"Of course you can, provided you re-examine what I just told you."
Lao Meng was stunned for a moment and asked, "What did you just say?"
He had been stuck in his own thoughts and didn't listen at all.
Zhao Yugan glared at him, gritted his teeth and repeated what he just said.
After hearing this, Lao Meng looked at him seriously and said, "Do you think I am the kind of person who talks too much?"
Of course Zhao Yuqian knew who he was, and without hesitation, he said slowly: "Actually, my niece bought those stones. She has a golden mouse that can find treasures..."
"Treasure rat?"
Before Zhao Yuqian could finish speaking, Lao Meng shouted in shock.
"you know?"
Zhao Yuqian looked at him doubtfully.
"I heard someone mention it before. I thought it was just a legend, but I didn't expect that such a beast really existed."
"Since you know something, you don't need to say more. You also know what the consequences will be if others find out about this, right?" Zhao Yuqian stared into his eyes and asked.
"Don't worry, I understand your concerns, and I will keep this matter in my stomach.
But you should also be careful, don't be so ostentatious, buying so many stones at one time. If someone else opens the stones, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide them even if you want. "
Lao Meng didn't forget to remind him after making his promise.
"Hey, it's you! Don't worry, we will be more careful in the future." Zhao Yuqian smiled.
"Let's go. Now that we know the whereabouts of the traitor, let's set off quickly. Don't go late and suffer the consequences of those jade being sold."
After saying that, he hurried out of the house.
