Chapter 221 - 0221 Lu Family History 1_1
After sending their child out, Feng Qingxue tidied up the kitchen and returned to the living room, just in time to receive a huge bunch of keys from Lu Jiang.
They were old-fashioned bronze keys, shining as if brand new.
"Where did all these keys come from?" Feng Qingxue wondered aloud as she felt their weight in her hand. Some of the doors, cabinets, and chests in their house had old-fashioned bronze locks, some had new locks purchased from department stores.
Besides, she already had the keys to all these locks.
"These keys relate to our entire family fortune," said Lu Jiang with a laugh.
Feng Qingxue immediately thought of what Lu Jiang had said the other day. The keys felt both burning hot and extraordinarily heavy in her hand. Then, Lu Jiang went on, "Father just told me yesterday, before our house was built, he had secretly dug up the gold and other valuables he had hidden elsewhere and buried it under our house, right beneath our bedroom. It’s buried very deep, since nobody would dig that deeply into our property. Besides, gold buried in the ground doesn’t need to be taken care of, we can dig it up when peace comes."
Feng Qingxue’s eyes widened in surprise. She pointed towards their bedroom. Were she and Lu Jiang really sleeping on top of a bed of gold?
