Rebirth 1983: Starting From Taking Back the Family Property Chapter 68

Chapter 68 Secret Passage

Within three days, Gu Wenfeng had learned everything about the Sun family's past. The courtyard where they lived was given to Sun Xun after the family split thirty years ago. Because the male owner lives in the second courtyard, there is no study room here.

Lu Jiaxin has been wondering how Sun Xun discovered the secret passage two years later. With their family's financial situation, it was impossible to have the money to renovate the house. And if the entrance to the secret passage is exposed during renovation, I know there will be trouble in the two rooms behind.

As members of the Sun family, they all have a share in the things passed down from their ancestors. But she had never heard of the dispute between the three houses in her previous life, so the two houses behind her probably didn't know about it before selling these antique calligraphy and paintings.

 Based on the known information, Lu Jiaxin speculated that the tunnel entrance may have been exposed due to the collapse of the house or other reasons. Sun Xun covered it up after he found out, which is why the other two families didn't know about it.

Gu Wenfeng said one more thing: "The three fire Kangs in this courtyard were laid by Jiefang Qian. The strange thing is that these three fire Kangs were laid by Grandpa Sun Xun himself. No one knew that he could lay the Kang before. .”

Lu Jiaxin's eyes lit up: “Did Sun Xun's grandfather pass away in an accident, and he didn't see his family before he died?”

Gu Wenfeng nodded and said, "Yes, when he went to buy food, he met deserters from the Fruit Party on the road. Those people were just like bandits. They burned, killed, looted and did everything, so they were brutally attacked."

Lu Jiaxin had previously wondered why no one in the Sun family knew about the secret passage. Now she knows the reason: "I think the entrance to the secret passage is most likely to be in the kang of my house."

Gu Wenfeng didn't make any inferences. Anyway, the kang in the Lu Jiaxin House was dismantled and there was no secret passage entrance, so he would dismantle the other two.

 “When will Zhao Dajun leave?” Lu Jiaxin asked. The materials to repair the house arrived the day before yesterday. In the past two days, Zhao Dajun followed the hired master to repair the roof. All the doors and windows need to be replaced. I paid the deposit this morning and will just send them over for installation when they are ready. Everyone knows how to paint walls, so there is no need to hire someone else.

If it weren't for the two people's different views, Lu Jiaxin really didn't want to let Zhao Dajun go back. Firstly, he works quickly, and secondly, his force value is high.

Gu Wenfeng said: "Tell him tomorrow and go back the day after tomorrow."

 “What reason?”

 Gu Wenfeng knew that the reason for her fear of going back was far-fetched and would make Zhao Dajun guess the clues: "His work has been implemented and he has to rush back to report."

“Ah, the work has been completed, what unit is it from?”

 She thought it was good to hear that it was the transportation company in Zhao Dajun's hometown county. Zhao Dajun can drive, has high force value, and is not afraid of running long distances. Even if the transportation company fails in the future, it is easy to find a job if you have money to buy a car for transportation, but if you are not able to drive for others.

 Zhao Dajun was very happy to receive the news the next day, and the people who implemented the work were also at ease. Just hearing that he was going back tomorrow, Zhao Dajun was unwilling: "Brother Feng, you have to do so much work alone until the year of the monkey. There is half a month of reporting time, so I can leave five days in advance. These days, I'll put the house in order with you.”

Gu Wenfeng had already expected what he would say: "The reporting time is only one week, and you have to find a place to live after the reporting, so you should go back early."

He had to report within a week, so Zhao Dajun didn't dare to delay and obediently accepted the train ticket. But he didn't go to bed until after nine o'clock at night. If the old lady hadn't come to the door and scolded him when he entered the hospital the second time, he would have worked all night.

 The next day, Lu Jiaxin and Xue Mao also went to see him off. Knowing that he was saving money, Lu Jiaxin bought him fruits, biscuits and other food, and also asked Xue Maoze to bake thirty flatbreads and boil twenty eggs.

Zhao Dajun had no choice but to accept the offer, but he still had to say: "Miss Lu, making money is not easy. You should spend more money in the future! Otherwise, you won't be able to use the money when you need it, and it will be too late to regret it by then." "Yes." Lu Jiaxin knew that he had good intentions and said with a smile: "I know it well. Brother Zhao, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to me and I will try my best to help you."

Zhao Dajun originally wanted to say no, but Gu Wenfeng said before him: "Dajun, please thank Miss Lu quickly."

From interacting with him these days, it can be seen that this girl is smart, capable and thoughtful. The most important thing is that she dares to think and do. Coupled with my family background, I will definitely be able to go far in the future. There's no guarantee that this promise of hers will be used in the future.

  Zhao Dajun was very puzzled, but after Gu Wenfeng's urging, he still thanked him.

 Gu Wenfeng bought a sleeper ticket, and Lu Jiaxin paid for the fare. After he sat down, he felt that his luggage took up too much space, so he put the dried fruit and food sent by Lu Jiaxin into his luggage bag. Unexpectedly, he opened the bag and saw an envelope on top. When he opened the envelope, he saw a stack of money inside.

Although Gu Wenfeng and Zhao Wenfeng were both sent by the Xie family, they were running around here and there and helping to repair the house these days, so Lu Jiaxin naturally had to express his feelings. But she knew that Zhao Dajun was stubborn and wouldn't give it to him directly.

Zhao Dajun took the money and shook his head slightly: "Oh, this girl's hands are too loose. With such a vicious stepmother, she doesn't know how to save money."

That stepmother is thoughtful and skillful. This girl is no match for her. She probably won't be able to get money from Father Lu when she reaches adulthood. However, he refused to listen to his advice many times. He wasn't going to use the money and would pay it back when he got the chance.

With Zhao Dajun gone, Lu Jiaxin no longer had any worries. When they got home, the three of them went into the house to dismantle the fire bed.

Gu Wenfeng saw the exposed hole and took a deep look at Lu Jiaxin. Before coming here, he thought that Lu Jiaxin was just a child and too naive. There was really a treasure hidden in the secret passage. How could the Sun family not know about it. He didn't object and listened to her arrangement to inquire about information. He wanted her to give up quickly and return to Sijiu City as soon as possible. I never expected that the Sun family actually had a secret passage.

 Once the secret passage is established, the treasure will most likely be real.

Xue Mao's mouth was wide enough to fit an egg in: “Sister, where did you get this news?”

Of course, Lu Jiaxin would not say that she knew it from later generations. This was her deepest secret: "Let's go down and have a look."

Gu Wenfeng shook his head and said: "This secret passage must have been closed for many years. The entrance has been sealed. I don't know if it will be dangerous to go down. Let him pass to the wind first, and I will go down to explore the path after lunch. No problem, you can go down again." "

Lu Jiaxin understood immediately upon hearing this that she was worried that there would be a lack of oxygen if she went down the secret passage without ventilation. Now she is too precious to risk her life, and she is unwilling to put them in danger: "There is no rush. It will be safer to wait until everyone gets off work in the afternoon before going down to investigate."

Sun Xun didn't have any accidents that year, so he should be fine. However, they were not in a hurry. It would be better to wait for half a day for ventilation.

 Gu Wenfeng was still worried that she would go down now, so he was relieved to hear this. This girl had a bad temper but acted very appropriately: "Okay, let's go down and have a look in the evening."
