Chapter 4 My God, Where Is This?

Her fingers were light, and she pressed lightly on the lock.The box opened naturally.

I saw an envelope that was supposed to be white on the top floor, but was slightly yellowed due to age.

Ye Mingming opened the envelope and found some simple and delicate hairpin rings at the bottom of the box, no worse than those worn by people watching on TV.

Moreover, most of these hairpins are gold, but also jade and silver.

Ye Mingming even saw that there were things like silver dollars and copper coins.

It seems that they were all secretly hidden by grandma back then, or worn by grandma in her early years.

The most peculiar thing is that among so many things that can be regarded as antiques, there is also a small, rusty ring that is neither gold nor jade.

Ye Mingming really couldn't tell what material this ring was made of, but it was stored separately in a corner of the wooden box, in an exquisite small box.

She looked at these jewelries, although they were exquisite, she could only keep them for appreciation. This was also grandma's kindness, and she would definitely keep them well.

What she is most curious about is what will be in that letter, will there be grandma's last words to her?

With trepidation, she carefully opened the slightly yellowed envelope.

Line by line, slightly messy lowercase characters appeared in front of Ye Mingming's eyes.

Sure enough, it was written for herself, her fingers were trembling quietly, and her tight cheeks could no longer conceal the excitement in her heart.

Trying to calm myself down, I read the letter seriously.

I saw the letter wrote: "Feng'er, my good granddaughter, when you read this letter, it proves that you have grown up. These days, grandma is living in a muddle, and grandma knows that she can't do it. But looking at You who are crying, you are really young, grandma wanted to tell you, but she decided to keep this letter and read it when you grow up. Don’t blame yourself, everyone has this experience, life does not bring Come on, don’t take it when you die, it will be different sooner or later. What you see now, the objects and jewelry grandma showed you are the dowry left by grandma. Don’t underestimate the most eye-catching ring, that It is the most precious thing, but it is grandma’s heirloom. When grandma got married, grandma’s mother gave it to grandma. The family training is only passed on to daughters or granddaughters, and never to men. Although grandma doesn’t know what it is useful for, but Grandma knows that you must listen to the words of your family, and you must keep your promises and pass them on. Grandma listens to the elders. This ring has a history, and it is not simple. Otherwise, grandma's grandparents would not Keep it as a treasure. It is said that this ring can only be worn by people who are destined to wear it, and it will bring good news to those who wear it."

"Our ancestors passed it down and left it to those who are destined. Unfortunately, since it was passed down, no one generation has been able to try it successfully. Grandma found that you have been smart and spiritual since you were a child, and you are not like other children. Same. You must try it! If you can wear it, grandma is very happy. This ring has finally found its intended person, and my granddaughter wears it, and grandma’s task has been completed. Just in case, just in case If not. You have to keep your promise like a grandma and pass it on to your own daughters. When they grow up enough, you must choose the best one and pass it on to her. Grandma knows that you are a smart and good boy , After you understand all this, you know what to do. Grandma’s last request is that after reading the letter, please help grandma burn this letter, so as not to leave unnecessary trouble. Well, goodbye. Feng’er, My good granddaughter. No matter where grandma is, she will always bless you and have a good life."

Ye Mingming finished reading the long letter.

The heartache was unbearable, and the tears kept sliding down the cheeks, dripping down, and falling on the letter paper.

Printed a round imprint.

Her eyes were red and swollen, and she sobbed: "Grandma, Feng'er misses you so much, Feng'er will definitely listen to you and live a good life."

Why is Ye Mingming called Feng'er again? This is definitely not her nickname.The original names of the three brothers and sisters of the Ye family are linked together, they are dragon, phoenix, and tiger.

But because back then, Ye Feng was entangled in gossip and gossip in the village, and those who followed suit spoke very unpleasant words.

I don't care about a little girl at all, whether she can bear it.

At that time, Ye Ma and Ye Mingming's elder brother Ye Long decided to change their daughter's name after careful discussion.

I hope she can be strong, cheer up, and the future is bright and bright from now on.

Simply change it to Ye Mingming.

After a while, Ye Mingming discovered that the main purpose of the last letter grandma left him was for that unknown ring.

What is the secret of that ring, is it really that important?It is so important that you need to burn the letter yourself.

She took a few deep breaths, calmed herself down again, and carefully read the letter from grandma to herself from beginning to end twice.

However, Ye Mingming really couldn't bear to burn the letter, this was grandma's last words.

After thinking about it, this is not okay, I have to listen to grandma's words, otherwise it is unfilial.

It seems that when she was young, she often heard from her grandma that her natal family was in the past.

It used to be a well-known rich family with a radius of hundreds of miles - the big landlord, which has been passed down for hundreds of years without decline, but in a certain revolution, the house was ransacked for no reason.

How did grandma leave these items for herself, and how did she escape those searches.

Her old man was still thinking about using these as a dowry for herself, but she caused her grandma to die.

Ye Mingming wiped away his tears, and slowly climbed down the kang, ignoring the dust on his body, and went outside the room.

The entire yard was still quiet, only the branches were swaying in the wind, and there was no one.

It seems that both mom and Huzi haven't come back yet.

Holding the letter in his hand, Ye Mingming walked quickly to the kitchen, and reluctantly put the letter in the stove.

Pick up a box of matches, pull out one, and light it without hesitation.

She silently burned the match, and threw it on the letter paper, and the red flame shot up instantly, covering all the letter paper.

Just like that, Ye Mingming ruthlessly burned the last last words left by his grandma.

Watching the last flickering flame go out, the whole letter was completely reduced to ashes, and no trace of the original could be seen anymore.

While Ye Mingming was feeling depressed, he also heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, half of his grandma's last wish was fulfilled.

She got up and looked outside the kitchen. The vegetables in the yard were growing well, and the leaves of the walnut trees swayed in the breeze.The small stone table stayed in place quietly, everything was as usual, only without the company of the owner.

Back in grandma's room again, she held the wooden box in her arms with one hand, and played with the really inconspicuous ring with the other.
