Chapter 186 - 186: Unforeseen Rewards



Jiang Xia’s movements were probably too big and woke Old Madam Jiang up. Jiang Xia retreat hastily back into the interspace again.

Old Madam Jiang got up in a daze but realized that there was no one in the room.

“Aiya, are you old and muddle-headed? Who else can it be at this late hour? Hurry up and sleep, you have to work tomorrow!” Old Master Jiang was particularly unhappy that his beautiful dream was interrupted. He said to Old Madam Jiang in a bad mood.

Old Madam Jiang was still worried. She stretched her neck and patrolled around the house before going back to sleep.

Jiang Xia didn’t dare to come out casually again. She waited for a good twenty minutes until she was sure that Madam Jiang was sound asleep before she left the interspace.

Learning from her close call, Jiang Xia decided not to linger. After exiting the interspace, she promptly made her exit from the Old Jiang House.

She didn’t expect that not only did she find the item tonight, but she also had an unforeseen rewards.

This interspace seemed to react to her thoughts. Could it be possible to transport her entire family into it? She had done it once before, but were there specific conditions that needed to be met?

Many questions flashed through Jiang Xia’s mind.

However, she realized that there seemed to be a plethora of unexplored potential within her interspace.

As she pondered joyfully, Jiangxia planned to sneak back into her room, only to be caught off guard by her father’s voice echoing from above, “Xiao Xia, where have you been?”

“Where on earth did you go? Your father and I were so worried!” Zhou Lan lowered her voice and said to Jiang Xia.

“Dad, Mom, you almost scared me to death.” Jiang Xia held her chest and said in a face full or horror.

Then, Jiang Xia walked up to Jiang Chuan and Zhou Lan with a mysterious expression. “Come, Dad, Mom, I have something extraordinary to show you.”

Since she was already awake, and this item was something she had acquired after considerable difficulty, it made sense to examine it now with her parents to understand what it truly was.

Zhou Lan was the first to notice Jiang Xia’s absence.

Originally, she had just woken up at night. When she happened to go out, she wanted to see if her daughter had covered herself with the blanket.

Although the weather was still hot, it was still cold at night. It was easy to catch a cold without a good blanket.

To her surprise, upon entering the room, she saw Jiang Gu sleeping soundly. When she checked for Jiang Xia, the room was empty.

Zhou Lan panicked and quickly went into the house to wake Jiang Chuan up.

Afraid that they would wake up the villagers, the husband and wife waited in the courtyard.

With Jiang Gu still asleep, Jiang Xia led Zhou Lan and Jiang Chuan into their room.

Upon entering, Zhou Lan promptly lit the kerosene lamp, providing Jiang Xia with enough light to bring out the item she found in Old Madam Jiang’s house.

“What is this?” Jiang Chuan asked with a frown.

“I took these from Grandpa and Grandma’s house. Jiang Gu told me today that Grandpa and Grandma hid these two things and never let anyone see them. I thought that there might be some secret, so I went to get them.”

Initially, she assumed it was merely a small cloth bag. However, now this bag appeared more like a protective sheath. A slight touch revealed what seemed like a box within.

“I thought this cloth bag was only the size of a palm. 1 didn’t expect it to be so big. There’s also a box. Could there be some unknown family secrets hidden in this box?” Jiang Xia asked his father curiously as she looked at him.

Since he had gotten it back, it was useless for Jiang Chuan to beat Jiang Xia up.

Might as well see what was hidden inside.

With some struggle, they managed to remove the cloth bag, revealing a box roughly three feet long.

There was an old lock on the box. Upon seeing this, Jiang Chuan fetched some tools from his belongings.

It was obvious that the lock had been rusty since it had not been opened for a long time. Jiang Chuan managed to opened it without much effort.

The three of them didn’t expect the box to contain a trove of jewelry.

“Goodness! Xiao Xia, look at this! A pearl necklace, jade bracelets, and even gold bars!” Zhou Lan’s eyes nearly popped out in amazement.

This small box of jewelry was worth a lot of money, especially in this era.

“Shh, mother, Xiao Gu is still sleeping.” Jiang Xia quickly pulled Zhou Lan back to stop her from screaming.

The houses were all made of wood and lacked proper soundproof. Waking Jiang Gu was one thing, but if the neighbors heard them, they would be in real trouble.

“Alright, alright, 1’11 quiet down,” Zhou Lan quickly lowered her voice.

Then, the family shifted their gaze to the box of jewelry.

Jiang Xia rubbed her chin and looked confused..” Dad, do Grandpa and Grandma seem like the kind of people who could possess such jewelry?”
