Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

After cooking, Gu Qingzhi first scooped out three bowls of mung bean paste and placed them in a basin of cold water prepared in advance to cool them down. She then put the rest into a clay jar, sealed it, and hung it in the well in the front yard to keep it chilled, intending to drink it at noon.

It was about time, so she planned to go to the backyard to see how Brother Gu Yan was doing.

It just so happened that Mrs. Gu Wang had the same plan. She had wanted to come and see how her daughter’s mung bean soup was doing. When she heard that she had already made it, she was very surprised.

It had been less than fifteen minutes since the two of them arrived at the backyard, but Gu Yan had already opened all the locks and was about to go to the front yard to call them over to see.

"Second Aunt, Sister Qingzhi, all the locks have been opened."

Gu Yan secretly observed Gu Qingzhi with a glance, and when he saw the flash of surprise on her face, he couldn't help feeling a little proud.

Then he realized his thought and quickly collected his thoughts. "Second Aunt, should we open the box now?"

Gu Wang looked at Gu Qingzhi and nodded slightly, "Then open it. Erlang, be careful."

Gu Yan paused as he was about to open the lid of the box. "Don't worry, nephew."

"Second Aunt and Sister Qingzhi, please stay away first. Wait until Yan opens the box before you come closer to take a look."

The two of them took a few steps back as instructed.

Gu Yan calmed himself down and found that the lock had been unlocked. He simply found a long bamboo pole and lifted the lid of the wooden box.

The three of them were all stunned. The bright yellow color in the box dazzled their eyes.

Gu Yan stepped forward, opened a few layers and examined them carefully before saying, "This box is full of gold bars."

Moreover, the gold bars were completely unmarked.

He was a little surprised.

Generally, the caster of gold bars will leave a mark on it.

Seeing that the two didn't say anything, Gu Yan put away his surprise and continued to open the lids of the remaining three boxes one by one.

The second box contained exquisite gold and jade jewelry, the third box contained porcelain, and the last box contained books.

At this time, the mother and daughter finally reacted and came forward to check the contents of the box.

Everything that can be packed with golden nanmu is a fine product.

All kinds of hairpin accessories are gorgeous.

Gu Qingzhi was looking at the gorgeousness and exquisiteness of the jewelry, while Gu Wangshi obviously looked at more. She always felt that the style of these jewelry did not seem to be in line with the current fashion.

These speculations were confirmed when she saw the porcelain in the third box.

The porcelain of each dynasty has its own style, and these porcelains are not the current mainstream. Instead, they vaguely resemble the style of porcelain from previous dynasties.

Sure enough, when I turned to the bottom, I saw that the time printed on it was indeed the early years of the previous dynasty.

Gu Wang felt a dull pain in her head.

She remembered that the ancestors of the Gu family came here to build a villa not long after the founding of this dynasty. She remembered that this place was still very desolate at that time, so the Gu family's house was so large.

Gu Wangshi couldn't help but speculate that perhaps these things were buried by a wealthy family who fled at the time, waiting for their descendants to take them.

However, this dynasty has been founded for more than two hundred years, and these things have remained silent.

Either the whole family is gone, or the descendants may not have any instructions for the wealth.

The last box was full of books. Gu Yan was only interested in these. He picked up the well-preserved books and flipped through them one by one. These books covered all aspects of life. All of them were unique copies, the kind that were treasured by wealthy and scholarly families. Any one of them would cause a bloody storm if taken outside.

Although he was jealous, Gu Yan still kept his sanity. He politely asked Gu Wangshi, "Second Aunt, how should we deal with these things?"

Gu Wangshi pondered for a while. Since these things had been stored in the Gu family for more than two hundred years and no one had come to take them, they were like ownerless items. It would be better to put them away first. If someone came to look for them in the future, she could return them to them.

Now that they have been dug out, there is no reason to put them back.

"Erlang, move these to the study first and wait for your uncle to come back before making a decision."

These boxes were a bit heavy, but Gu Yan was able to lift them one by one.

Gu Qingzhi was somewhat surprised and impressed. It seemed that she could not help much.

I didn't expect that the young man, who looked so thin that he could be blown away by the wind, was actually so strong!

If it were before, Gu Yan might not be able to move all these boxes to the study in one go, but the food in the Gu family has been good recently.

There were two sick people at home. From time to time, Gu Wang would use some money to exchange for chicken, bacon and other things from the villagers. Sometimes, she would ask the villagers who went to the market to bring some mutton, pork and other things. How could the food be bad these days?

With meat and rice to eat, Gu Yan's physical strength has obviously improved in the past few days, and he has enough energy to move a few boxes.

Gu Yan hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "Aunt, my nephew has a request."

Gu Wangshi paused and asked as gently as possible, "What does Erlang want to say?"

Recently, this nephew has changed her mind a little.

Gu Yan was a little nervous. He said hurriedly, "Second Aunt, my nephew wants to take a book from this box. Don't worry, I will copy it as soon as possible and won't occupy the rare book for too long."

Reading?

Mrs. Gu Wang was a little dazed. Gu Yan had already dropped out of the academy, but he was still reading books now?

Her expression was a little complicated, which was different from what she had imagined. "Okay, pick one for yourself. Be careful and protect it well. Also, copy it as soon as possible and put it back."

Gu Wangshi paused after she finished speaking, "If you want to read the next one, come to the study and get it yourself, but you have to copy it first before you read it."

Although she is not a scholar, she still has some vision to see how valuable these books are.

If the official came back, it might not be so easy for Gu Yan to borrow books from him.

Gu Yan was delighted that there was actually such a benefit. He was ecstatic and nodded repeatedly to promise that he would protect it with his life.

Gu Qingzhi reluctantly got up from the box of gold, silver and jade ornaments. After hearing what Gu Yan said, she couldn't help laughing in her heart. This is the nerd who loves books like his life.

In the next few days, Gu Yan and his sister each occupied one side of the study, one copying ancient books and the other studying gold and silver jewelry.

This box of gold, silver and jade ornaments that seemed to be from the previous dynasty gave Gu Qingzhi a lot of inspiration. Now she is painting the patterns of gold and silver ornaments.

The ornaments of the previous dynasty did have many merits and gave her endless inspiration.

It’s always good to have many skills, you never know when they will come in handy.

That afternoon, Gu Yan actually walked out of the study room for a rare occasion and started weaving a backpack in the yard.

Gu Qingzhi came out and saw, hey, the sun rose from the west?

She thought that Brother Gu Yan would at least finish copying this box of rare ancient books before leaving the study.

So what is this for?

Gu Qingzhi's fiery gaze was too obvious, so Gu Yan had to explain, "I plan to go up the mountain tomorrow."

Rare copies are important, but they won’t disappear. The mountain products won’t wait for anyone. If you miss this season, they will be gone.
