Chapter 1206: Applying for Discharge 5
Having heard Qiao Desheng’s words, Lu Jiang understood that the situation had been taken care of, and the person in charge was willing to look after Zhou Xuekui and Wang Xuehai, but if the urgently needed Gold Bracelet was to be delivered, the circumstances for Zhou Xuekui and Wang Xuehai would be even better.
"Let’s go, I’ll ask Qingxue."
Feng Qingxue was chatting leisurely with Fang Ning when she heard Lu Jiang’s request. After a moment of contemplation, she said, "It seems I do have a pair. I’ve pressed them down at the bottom of the chest. I’ll have a look. They were from my uncle as part of my dowry, old stuff that nobody has taken a fancy to, otherwise, they would have been long gone. I brought them over from my hometown during my vacation last year. Fortunately, Ajiang holds a high rank, and we are following military dependents; we don’t have to go through inspections like at the beginning."
In fact, what Wang Zhengguo had given was a gold bangle, not the genuine Dragon and Phoenix Bracelet; it was just a pretext invented on the spot.
All of the Lu Family’s treasures were in the spatial realm; not only were the Dragon and Phoenix Bracelets abundant, but there were also many of them. Just the ones included in Lu Jiang’s mother’s dowry amounted to several boxes, which Lu Jiang’s father said were all for them, because when the eldest son of the Lu Family got married, he took away half of the family fortune, which Lu Jiang did not.
Without including the items they had obtained from the waste collection station, flea market, or second-hand market, she already considered herself a wealthy woman.
"How could we accept this?" Fang Ning glared at Qiao Desheng.
Qiao Desheng looked up at the sky, pretending not to see, which annoyed Fang Ning to the point where her teeth itched. This man was really unreserved.
A pair of Gold Bracelets, especially the old-style Dragon and Phoenix Bracelets, would not be light. Once exchanged at the bank, they would be worth at least several hundred yuan!
Although bedridden during the day, Feng Qingxue dressed neatly, just in case visitors came and felt inconvenient to enter the room. Thus, she lifted the quilt, held Lu Jiang’s hand to get off the bed, and opened the large chest.
Pretending to search for a while, Feng Qingxue took out a pair of real Dragon and Phoenix Bracelets from the space, wrapped them in red cloth in the chest, and took them out.
