Chapter 49 A sleepless night
Cheng Haixiang suddenly woke up from his sleep, and the little cotton-padded jacket's words frightened him,
A seven-month-old baby can say such a complete sentence, and It’s different from the usual vague calling of mom and dad!
Perhaps it is the vigilance he has developed over the years. When his daughter said there were mice, it was not surprising that ordinary people had mice, and it was not surprising that they had mice.
It made him What this little baby screamed at home was not as simple as a real mouse. Years of vigilance reminded him of the basement!
Secret passage!
According to the inheritance of the family, he can live in the main house and sleep at the exit of the secret passage. The exit of this secret room can also be said to be the entrance. Of course he knows the secrets of the basement and the secret passage!
He also secretly stored food in some of the things in the basement over the years!
As for the unusable things from many years ago, they are all stored in the basement!
Cheng Haixiang thought about the possibility that someone might dig a hole in the basement and find it. He listened quietly for a while, and he really heard different sounds around the house!
I feel a little regretful that I slept so hard that I couldn’t sleep as well as a little baby!
My wife didn't say anything about what happened in the basement. Of course she couldn't observe it immediately. She was woken up after taking a look.
The wife who comforted her daughter felt a little guilty in her heart. For the sake of the family, The secret was not even told to my wife of 12 years when I was married!
It’s not that I don’t believe my wife, it’s just that this is their family’s inheritance, and it is passed down secretly to the next generation. According to their family’s rules, the women in the family cannot tell!
It’s so chaotic outside right now, not to mention that if one more person knows about it, it will be even more dangerous!
Thinking of the things in the basement, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
These are dangerous items. Putting wealth and dangerous items together is equivalent to a timed explosive bag!
If others really find out, their whole family will be ruined.
Cheng Haixiang regretted that he had to arrange for others to live here with such a big secret in his family.
I have been too busy these days and haven’t observed the people living in their home. It turns out that they have other thoughts.
His face was pale and sweaty. After thinking about it, it was not appropriate to look at it now. I just had to wait until daybreak to think of a solution!
"Brother Xiang, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Zhao Jiasui woke up the father and daughter by making a big noise. He lit the lamp and held his daughter to coax her to sleep. Only then did I realize that my husband’s expression was wrong, so he greeted me with concern!
"It's okay, I was called by my daughter just now. I was having a nightmare just now, and I was suddenly shocked."
Cheng Haixiang, a man who is usually so powerful, actually used such a Unconvincing reasons.
Cheng Xiwen just wanted to laugh, wasn't his father shocked?
Others don’t know about their family’s wealth. Depending on the situation, my mother doesn’t know some things, otherwise she wouldn’t have any other reaction at all!
At this moment, Cheng Xiwen just thought and sighed secretly, husband and wife usually have such a good relationship, it turns out they all have secrets!
Some of the items belonging to our ancestors should not be known to outsiders, not even to the people next to us. As a daughter, he can understand that the following items are not just wealth. If wealth is known to others, it will cause disaster. If someone knows something, it will lead to death!
I don’t know, are his neighbors bringing people to their homes for wealth or something else?
But to their disappointment, they couldn’t find it at home!
Cheng Xiwen was silently thinking, what will her father do next?
But she was also thinking, could she follow her father on a treasure hunt? For a child as young as her, her father shouldn't be on guard, right?
Damn, eight brothers took her to the mountain to see if there is another secret cave entrance, so tomorrow and the future.
As long as she stares at this bed, she might be able to know what her father will do next!
She fell asleep thinking about it and didn't notice her father who didn't sleep at night!
Cheng Haixiang just closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. He was so anxious, thinking of hurrying up to dawn. He was pretending like this because he didn't want his wife to notice that something was wrong with him, and he couldn't disturb his daughter to sleep!
On the second day, Zhao Jiasui cooked breakfast at dawn and found that her husband, who had not gotten up so early, had also gotten up.
Cheng Haixiang looked around the whole house calmly, and then observed the people coming in and out of the house while fetching water and helping with various housework.
He didn't see anyone suspicious coming in or out of the house. Last night, he heard the yard door being quietly opened several times. It was possible that the person who came in left again in the middle of the night!
I made another discovery. The children of the neighbors who live in the front and back yards of the yard have not noticed anything abnormal. The adults can see dark circles under their eyes, as if they have not slept all night!
Tsk, tsk, these people are fighting against him. I don’t know how many nights they have done this?
He is not gloating about his misfortune. He is more certain that some people suspect that their family has treasures, good things, or is hiding something?
As for how it was known or how it was leaked?
Is it because others think that their family has a lot of money and they haven’t donated all the money yet? Or maybe some people think that the militia team that their family used to work in has not handed over all their belongings?
Any guess will put them in danger!
Cheng Haixiang thought that during the day, after the adults in the yard went out, he asked for leave from the factory, and then handed over the affairs in the village to others, and then quietly went home to observe!
I also feel that for such a secret matter, it is possible that as soon as he asks for leave, others will find out that he went home during the day. Do you feel guilty?
Will it be more suspected?
What can you think of?
Cheng Haixiang had an idea when he saw his wife taking out their little daughter while having breakfast, and sighed that the little cotton-padded jacket was still useful!
The eight sons gathered around the table, chattering and eating porridge, and the grass that could make a loud sound was completely ignored!
A father can trust a little baby, but not his eight sons!
The things in the family may have been passed down to the eight sons, but there is not so much originality here. In his understanding, the head of the family is not necessarily a man. The daughter, a little baby, may have a mouth bigger than The eight sons have such big mouths!
A thoughtful person wouldn't ask a baby, but would ask his eight sons who are tiger-headed and tiger-brained!
Cheng Haixiang finally made a decision and discussed it with his wife:
"Jiasui, I will take my daughter to Guanshanxu in a while to buy some school supplies for these sons. Look at your sons, I have some things to do and won’t be back until this afternoon!”
What’s wrong with a grown man traveling with his daughter?
Zhao Jiasui thinks there is no problem at all. If it is convenient for him to take his daughter when he goes out, then let him take her!
I thought that when my daughter reached this stage, she would not have enough human milk and supplementary food would not be nutritious enough.
“Bring diapers and buy milk powder for my daughter!”
As for why it’s milk and not malted milk?
Of course the two options are milk!
