The happy little days of the Ye family

Chapter 656 Treasure Hunt in the Backyard (1)

After lunch, the three of them took out everything they found and began to take stock of the morning's harvest.

Ye Qingqing was the most active, smiling and taking out the two things he found in the morning.

"I found this Jade Guanyin in the mud in the flower garden. Thanks to Rhubarb and Xiaohuang, I accidentally exposed this jade pendant."

Upon hearing their names, Da Huang and Xiao Huang tilted their heads and looked at Ye Qingqing.

Ye Qingqing was so cute by the two big guys, he patted the two big fluffy heads, and then continued:

"And this silver earring, I found it under the osmanthus tree in the small garden, but unfortunately I didn't find the other one."

Ye Qingqing looked at the earring with pity on her face. This earring was pretty good-looking. If she found another one, she planned to keep it for herself. It would be a pity.

Tang Xiaojing on the side also happily took out the bunch of keys and ugly wallet he found and started to show them off.

"There are one or two 102 coins in this purse. Although it is not much, it is enough for the family's expenses for two months."

Then he took off the safety buckle and golden gourd on the key. "Today's harvest is not bad. With these two little things, today's trip is not in vain."

Tangshan, who only found the broken jade pendant, said sourly: "I'm the only one who made this trip in vain."

The smile on Tang Xiaojing's face paused for a moment, and then he looked at Tangshan with a flattering look.

Ye Qingqing smiled and said: "There is also the backyard. Let's see you show off your skills this afternoon."

After taking stock of what he found in the morning, Tang Xiaojing consciously put away the dishes.

This was something the young couple had agreed upon a long time ago. Ye Qingqing cooked and Tang Xiaojing was responsible for washing the dishes.

Tangshan had no intention of helping his son, so he walked to the backyard happily.

Ye Qingqing was not in a hurry to go treasure hunting in the backyard. He went to the lotus pond first and packed away the lotus roots that Tang Xiaojing dug out in the morning.

The lotus roots dug up by Tang Xiaojing still had soil and roots on them, which looked very easy to feed.

"This lotus root grows in water, so it should be better preserved in water, right?"

Ye Qingqing thought for a while, put all the lotus roots into a sack, and then put them in the small pool under the rockery to soak.

After packing up the lotus roots, Ye Qingqing walked quickly to the backyard.

As soon as you arrive at the backyard, you will see a small green bamboo forest.

The bamboos in this small bamboo forest are completely different from the tall bamboos in the back mountains. They are very graceful and graceful. The tallest bamboo is only a little taller than Ye Qingqing.

Ye Qingqing walked a few steps forward and came to a small pavilion on the edge of the bamboo forest.

The small pavilion is similar in style to the bamboo forest. It is also very delicate and elegant. There is also a set of small tables and chairs in the center of the pavilion.

Ye Qingqing could understand arranging tables and chairs in the small garden. After all, the flowers there were indeed quite beautiful.

But bamboo forests attract mosquitoes. If you sit in a bamboo forest in the summer, aren't you afraid of being carried away by mosquitoes?

Ye Qingqing really couldn't understand what these rich young men were thinking.

Ye Qingqing came to the small pavilion. At this time, Tangshan was bending over to search the ground.

But apart from bamboo leaves, nothing else was found on the ground, and the stone table was also bare with nothing on it.

After the two searched the small pavilion inside and out, they continued to rummage in the bamboo forest.

There are indeed many mosquitoes in this bamboo forest. Just a short time after Ye Qingqing came in, there were several mosquito bags on the back of his hands and neck.

After a while, even my face was not immune from the mosquitoes, and there were two more red and swollen mosquito bites on my forehead.

Mosquitoes in summer are very poisonous, and the places bitten by mosquitoes are itchy and swollen. Ye Qingqing couldn't help but scratch it a few more times.

However, I scratched several finger marks on the back of my hands and neck, but it still didn't stop itching, and even became more and more itchy the more I scratched it.

Ye Qingqing was afraid of leaving scars on his face and did not dare to scratch it with his nails, so he had to keep patting his forehead hard.

Finally, Ye Qingqing couldn't bear it anymore, so she ran to the well behind the bamboo forest, fetched a bucket of cold well water, wetted it with a handkerchief and applied it to the mosquito bites.

The well water is ice cold and the handkerchief is very comfortable to apply on it.

Ye Qingqing wiped the area bitten by the mosquito with cold well water, and then applied it for a while.

When the itching stopped, Ye Qingqing was able to look around.

The small bamboo forest occupies one-third of the backyard. Behind the bamboo forest are a well, a firewood shed and a horse stable.

The well is in the corner, and there is a sink for washing clothes next to the well.

At this time, there were two large basins of clothes soaking next to the pool. It must have been that someone happened to be washing clothes here when the house was sealed.

These clothes have been left here for many days, and many bamboo leaves have fallen on them in the basin.

Ye Qingqing took out all the fallen leaves from the basin, and then picked up the clothes in the basin and inspected them one by one.

Although I didn't find anything valuable, the clothes in the basin were all made of fine fabrics. They cost me 35 yuan each at the pawn shop.

Ye Qingqing counted and found that there were 5 clothes in total, which was 175 Wen.

Ye Qingqing quickly wrung out the clothes and hung them on the clothes drying pole nearby.

“After it’s dried, it can be taken to a pawn shop and sold, so it can’t be wasted.”

Ye Qingqing then searched around the well and walked to the left with empty hands.

Directly opposite the bamboo forest is a straw shed with a lot of firewood inside.

Although the shed is quite large, there are very few things inside. There are a few complete firewoods on the left, and a large pile of firewood that has been chopped and neatly stacked on the right.

On the wooden pile for chopping firewood, there was half-chopped firewood, and there was an ax and a machete beside it.

Ye Qingqing saw that the ax and hatchet were brand new. They could just stuff them into the sacks and continue to use them after taking them home.

Ye Qingqing had little strength, so it was a bit difficult to move the firewood.

At this time, Tang Xiaojing happened to wash the dishes and came over, but Ye Qingqing directly caught him.

Tang Xiaojing was holding a handful of firewood in one hand. After lifting the two handfuls of firewood, he shook them vigorously.

The two checked all the firewood, but except for machetes and axes, they found nothing useful.

The two of them walked further forward, and there was a huge stable near the corner.

Unfortunately, the horses and carriages inside were gone, leaving only a huge empty stable.

The spacious stable has now become the home of the big ox, which is eating the best horse feed.

Tang Xiaojing saw that there was still a lot of good fodder in the stable, so he simply moved all the fodder to the bullock cart.

"Moo moo!"

Seeing that Tang Xiaojing had moved all the fodder to the cart, the big ox barked excitedly, then turned around and continued to eat the fodder.

"Ouch!"

"Ouch!"

At this time, the calls of Big Yellow and Little Yellow came from the bamboo forest.

"Qingqing, Xiao Jing, come here quickly." At the same time, Tangshan's voice came out.
