Chapter 158
Chu Zhixin heard the sound and walked over quickly.
I saw an emerald green jade pendant lying in the deep hole dug by Aunt Mei.
She quickly picked up the jade pendant, wiped off the dirt on it, and examined it carefully.
The color of the jade pendant is very pure, without a trace of impurities. It feels warm and slightly cool when placed in the palm of the hand. It is also engraved with exquisite and unique patterns. It can be seen that it is very old and priceless.
Aunt Mei stared at the jade pendant, puzzled: "It's strange, when did such a precious jade pendant be buried in the back garden of the first house, and no one has ever discovered it before?"
"Could it be that after the Chu family was ruined, someone sneaked in and buried it?"
Chu Zhixin frowned and guessed, her eyes deeply attracted by the pattern on the jade pendant.
She always felt like, where had she seen this pattern before?
"Probably not!"
Aunt Mei recalled carefully: "Ever since something happened to Chu's family, I have been staying here closely. During this period, no one could come. Even if I left for a short time later, someone would take the opportunity to sneak in and bury this thing."
It's impossible for me to be unaware in the garden..."
"Besides, who would be so boring as to bury such a fine piece of jade in someone else's back garden?"
Chu Zhixin nodded.
Aunt Mei works meticulously and meticulously. If the soil in the garden has been disturbed, she will not be able to detect it.
Therefore, there is a high possibility that the jade pendant has been buried in the back garden for a long time, but it has never been discovered.
"Aunt Mei, I seem to have seen the pattern on this jade pendant, but I can't remember where I saw it. Do you have any impressions?"
"Let me take a look!"
Aunt Mei even put on reading glasses to see clearly.
After looking at it carefully for a while, she suddenly remembered: "You and I have seen this pattern before. When you were born, the quilt that wrapped you had this embroidered on the inside. It looked like a combination of phoenix and flower of the other side.
!”
"When you said that, I also remembered..."
Chu Zhixin has a very strong memory and can be said to have a photographic memory of things he has seen.
When she was packing up her mother's belongings, she took a cursory look at the quilt, and later locked it in a box along with her parents' belongings and took it with her wherever she went.
"It seems like the jade pendant should belong to the wife."
After Aunt Mei finished speaking, she felt something was wrong: "But if the jade pendant belongs to my wife, why not pass it on to you instead of burying it in the ground?"
"I don't know what mom thinks, but this jade pendant should be very meaningful. I have to keep it well."
Chu Zhixin held the jade pendant tightly in her hand, hoping to find out the origin of this jade pendant as soon as possible.
She wanted to compare the pattern of the jade pendant with the pattern of the quilt to see if she could find any clues.
However, when she opened the box containing the quilt, she could not find the quilt at all.
"It's strange, I put it in the box, but why can't I find it?"
Chu Zhixin frowned and recalled carefully.
Could it be that I put it in a corner of Qianshui Residence and forgot to take it away?
Or, is it still in Shengzhai?
No matter where she placed it, to find out the origin of the jade pendant, she had to find the quilt, so she had to go back to the 'Qianshui Residence' or Sheng Residence.
Chu Zhixin patted the dust and weeds on her body and said to Aunt Mei: "Aunt Mei, I have to go out. There is no need to cook my meal at noon."
"Where are you going, Miss Xinxin, do you need me to accompany you?"
Aunt Mei lived in the basement in darkness for four years, pretending to be a ghost for four years, just to wait for her little master to come back.
Now when I hear that my original intention is leaving, I am very afraid that my original intention will leave and never come back.
"Don't worry about me, Aunt Mei, I'll be back later."
Chu Zhixin changed into a slim-fitting but not tight purple knitted knee-length skirt, a pair of casual canvas shoes, and a high ponytail. Like a female college student, she headed to Qianshui Residence full of energy.
Because Bai Jingxing bought the house in Qianshuiju in her name, even if she moves away, she is still the owner of the complex and can come and go as she pleases.
In order to avoid the possibility of running into Sheng Tingye, she decided to make a quick decision and find her things and leave within ten minutes.
