Chapter 48 I want to be a puppet
Quartz, who was hiding in the tree, held the candied snack stuffed by Jiang Wenyu in her hand, and looked at the two people digging in the soil below with questions in her head.

She originally thought Jiang Wenyu was joking, but she never thought he was actually digging dirt.

It would be a lie to say not surprised.

Whose cousin is digging dirt in the yard all morning?

However, the cousin girl got tired after digging twice.

Jiang Wenyu stared at the ground and sighed: "It's so tiring to do physical work. I want to be a puppet and hide under the quilt."

"Girl, madam is here." Qin Yue looked at the person who was gradually approaching and said to Jiang Wenyu.

After hearing this, Jiang Wenyu suddenly became energetic and slowly stood up.

"Really?"

"Ah."

Jiang Wenyu rubbed his forehead with the back of his hand and said with a smile, "Just right."

After Nanny Xu recovered, she stepped into Zhuxi Courtyard again. This time with Mrs. Zheng here, she felt confident and looked at Jiang Wenyu arrogantly.

Mrs. Zheng looked around and said with a gentle smile: "What are you doing in the yard in broad daylight?"

Jiang Wenyu said truthfully: "Auntie, I'm digging a jar."

"Jar?" Zheng's eyebrows narrowed.

Jiang Wenyu: "Yes."

Zheng and Nanny Xu looked at each other and glanced at Qin Yue.

Qin Yue sent news that Jiang Wenyu was going to dig something in the yard today, but he couldn't let others know.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

What Jiang Wenyu dug up was certainly not simple things. It might be antique collections, fertile land deeds, precious porcelain, gold and silver jewelry.

Aunt Xu stepped forward and grabbed the shovel, "How can you let your cousin dig the jar? Let your slave dig it for you."

Jiang Wenyu's expression tightened: "This is not good."

Mrs. Zheng also wanted to know what kind of treasure it was, and said sternly: "There's nothing wrong with it. Just stand and let Grandma and Qin Yue dig it."

Jiang Wenyu: "Okay."

Mrs. Zheng and Nanny Xu looked hopeful. After digging for a long time, they dug out a dirty jar with a withered color.

Zheng asked the sky with a speechless expression.

No matter how you look at this jar, look left or right, look up or down, no matter how you look at it, it cannot be a priceless treasure.

Jiang Wenyu stepped forward happily and said, "Thank you for your hard work, mama. Just give me this jar."

Zheng and Nanny Xu looked at each other.

Could it be that there are rare treasures inside?
"What's in this jar?" Zheng asked.

Jiang Wenyu replied: "It's something my aunt can't see."

Mrs. Zheng: "What can't I see?"

Jiang Wenyu didn't answer, and was about to grab the jar. Nanny Xu grabbed it sideways and walked towards Zheng.

"Cousin, I see that this jar is old and very strong. You probably won't be able to open it for a while. Why don't you let me help you?"

After saying that, Nanny Xu raised the jar with both hands and was about to smash it.

Jiang Wenyu's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly stopped him: "Don't fall!"

"Why?" Mrs. Zheng stared at Jiang Wenyu, "Is there something shameful inside?"

Jiang Wenyu spread his hands: "Absolutely not."

She stopped it again and again, and Mrs. Zheng and Nanny Xu were already sure that there was a rare treasure inside.

Aunt Xu looked at Jiang Wenyu and shouted, "I want to see what kind of shameful things are inside!"

Everyone was staring at Jiang Wenyu, but no one noticed a small stone flying violently from the tree and heading straight for the jar.

"Bang" with a loud noise.

The jar exploded in Nanny Xu's hand.In an instant, the air was filled with the overwhelming smell of stinky bamboo shoots.

Standing next to Aunt Xu, Mrs. Zheng was undoubtedly covered in sour bamboo shoots.

Mrs. Zheng and Nanny Xu were stunned in the sour rain of bamboo shoots.

They accidentally fried sour bamboo shoots all over their bodies.

Jiang Wenyu and Qin Yue on the side didn't get a trace of it.

Jiang Wenyu's skirt still fluttered, not stained by dust.

Seeing this, Quartz twitched the corners of her lips.

Jiang Wenyu made an appointment with her in advance. If Jiang Wenyu spreads his hands, it means that Quartz needs to take action.

Co-author Jiang Wenyu is not digging the dirt, she is brewing bad water.

Mrs. Zheng had always prided herself on being dignified and elegant, but now she was in such a mess, but she was the one who made Nanny Xu throw the jar. Jiang Wenyu stopped her again and again, and she couldn't even scold her.

Mrs. Zheng plucked sour bamboo shoots by herself for a while, then turned to look at Jiang Wenyu, who had not suffered at all. She gritted her teeth and denounced incoherently:

"...Tell me what you, a girl, have become like by making such a stinking mess in the yard! How can you grow up after eating these shabby things! You don't have any ladylike demeanor at all, who? I dare to marry you!"

If you don't succeed enough, you will fail more than you should, and you will only do a lot of things all day long.

Jiang Wenyu said with an innocent face: "Auntie, there is no rule in the house that you are not allowed to pickle sour bamboo shoots."

Aunt Xu gritted her teeth and glared at Jiang Wenyu pitifully: "Who is a good girl who would pickle something like this in the yard!"

All the ladies are interested in playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, as well as cooking skills, pursuing elegance and dignity. No one knows how to do such things.

Jiang Wenyu said, "Me. I know how to pickle."

She wasn't embarrassed at all.

Nanny Xu was so angry that her whole body ached.

Jiang Wenyu's clear black and white eyes looked at the jar fragments with regret, and said sadly: "Auntie, my sour bamboo shoots are gone, what should I do?"

Mrs. Zheng lost her composure and became serious: "It's just a jar of sour bamboo shoots. Why don't you pickle them again?"

"This altar of sour bamboo shoots is pickled with the best thousand-year-old bamboo shoots from Lingyun Mountain, and the thousand-year-old bamboo shoots were bought by Commander Xie at a great price." Jiang Wenyu lowered his eyelashes with great suppleness, "I have no money."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zheng's face twisted and her eyes widened.

I have only heard of thousand-year-old ginseng, but when did thousand-year-old bamboo shoots appear?
It's a big price, and she doesn't even want this thing as a free gift!
Jiang Wenyu took a step forward, squatted down, and twisted a bamboo shoot between his two fingers: "Now there are only corpses left. Auntie, what do you think we should do? There are so many corpses and a lot of money."

One bite at a time.

They were just about to escort Mrs. Zheng and Nanny Xu to Jin Yiwei.

The corners of Zheng's eyes twitched fiercely, and she dug hard at Qin Yue.

Qin Yue smiled at her: You are right, you are right, it is a priceless item!

It's just that it's not a treasure, it's just a stinky thing.

"Thank you, Commander, for thinking about it for a long time." Jiang Wenyu put on a troubled expression, "Auntie, what do you think we should do?"

"Buy!" Ms. Zheng gritted her teeth. She didn't want to stay any longer. She wanted to go back and wash off the smell. "How much silver?"

Jiang Wenyu said: "Not much, not much. 5 taels."

5 taels?Not too much?
But as luck would have it, this is also the most money Zheng can afford.

"Row!"

Mrs. Zheng's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and she quickly pulled Nanny Xu away. If she stayed here any longer, she would vomit.

Jiang Wenyu smiled and said, "Have a good time, auntie. Welcome to come again next time!"

Zheng and Nanny Xu immediately quickened their pace.

Jiang Wenyu waved to Quartz on the tree, regardless of whether the other party saw him or not.

She turned around and cleaned her hands cheerfully:
"Let's go get the money."
