However, Xia Mao was at ho at that ti and he was not sick at all. He was only asked not to go out of the house.

At that ti, it was very chaotic in the capital, so it was likely that she did not tell Zhou Sheng the truth. He thought that if the things were not really sold away, then it ant that they were all hidden away.

“When you’re able to do so, you can check if there are any of them hidden within the entire house. If there are none, then it would an that she really sold those items back then,” Zhou Sheng sighed and said.

Antiques! Treasures!

Qiao i did not pay any attention to what Zhou Sheng said after that. She felt that those things must have been hidden under this house.

“You both need to be careful too. Don’t let others know that you know all this,” Zhou Sheng reminded them carefully.

He did not know if it was a good thing for him to do this. After all, although it was not as strict now as in the past, it would still be considered a very serious cri if soone found out and reported it.

If that happened, it would not just be Xia Zhe’s career at stake. His entire family might even need to go to jail for it.

“Sigh, maybe I shouldn’t have told you.” Zhou Sheng began to regret what he did.

“What? I didn’t hear anything. Wasn’t Grandpa Zhou telling us that this cake is delicious? I don’t know anything,” Qiao i said as she blinked her big bright eyes.

Xia Zhe looked at Qiao i and smiled. He turned to Zhou Sheng and said, “That’s right, we didn’t hear anything. If those things are there, let them stay there. If there’s nothing, then it’s a relief for us.”

Zhou Sheng looked at Xia Zhe and then at Qiao i. He thought that these two kids were really good kids and it set his mind at ease.

Now, Zhou Sheng could understand why Wu Min did not give this house to anyone else back then, even when people said that she was biased. She did not even give it to her own son, but chose to give it to her precious grandson instead.

Xia Zhe was the kind of person who could give up a mountain of treasures. He had so far remained unmoved by such a huge temptation. No other person in the Xia family would be like him.

“You’re good kids, I’m relieved to see you like this. Even if I die, at least I didn’t let your grandmother down,” Zhou Sheng said with a smile.

“Pfft, pfft, pfft. What are you talking about, Grandpa Zhou? You still have to bring our baby out for walks in the park!” Qiao i hurriedly spat three tis on the ground.

Old people often said that if soone said sothing inauspicious, one must spit three tis on the ground and pretend that nothing had been said.

Zhou Sheng then took out a brocade box from his pocket.

“This was passed down from my ancestors. It’s one of the pocket watches that they had received as tributes. There were three in total and I inherited this one,” Zhou Sheng said.

The gold pocket watch shone brightly in the brocade box. Although it no longer had the luster of a brand new item, it had aged really well.

It was self-evident who this ancestor might be. He must also be from a very prominent family. However, Qiao i felt that the gift was too precious for her to accept.

“Grandpa Zhou, this item is really too valuable. You should take it back,” Qiao i said to Zhou Sheng as she closed the brocade box.

Zhou Sheng smiled and shook his head. He said emotionally, “I’m already so old and I don’t have any children. I like Xiao Zhe and treat him like my own grandson, so you’re like my granddaughter-in-law. Consider this watch to be a token from . You just have to take care of it well.”

Qiao i glanced at Xia Zhe as she could not make up her mind. Xia Zhe smiled and nodded. “Since it is a token from Grandpa Zhou, just accept it.”

Qiao i took the brocade box with both hands and said, “Thank you, Grandpa Zhou. I’ll definitely take good care of it. When the ti cos, I’ll pass this box to my child.”

“Good, good, good. That’s good to know.” Hearing that Qiao i treasured this pocket watch so much, Zhou Sheng felt very happy and satisfied.

Zhou Sheng slowly stood up and walked out of the door, taking with him the remaining cakes as well as his bird cage.

“Grandpa Zhou, rember to co for dinner tonight!” Qiao i said.

“Alright!” Zhou Sheng left after saying that.

Qiao i looked at the pocket watch in her hand and felt very happy. She thought that Grandpa Zhou was such a nice person.

After putting away the brocade box, Qiao i looked at Xia Zhe eagerly and he could not help but smile at how she looked.

“Why? Are you thinking about the treasures Grandpa Zhou ntioned?” Xia Zhe said.
