Spring River Chasing the Moon

It’s not that Yang Qian didn’t notice that Luo Youyou had been following her obediently, but she was so angry that she wanted to teach this girl a lesson, but she really didn’t have time today.

"I've cooked steamed buns and porridge for breakfast. I won't be home for lunch, so you can go to Xiaomei's house to eat. I've told Xiaomei's grandmother."

As Yang Qian cleaned up, she said, "Behave yourself in other people's homes and don't cause trouble for me. Do you hear me?"

"I understand." Luo You nodded and replied with a smile.

The time was almost up. Luo Youyou was nervous and excited. She stared at the door, waiting for the companions who had made an appointment with Yang Qian to go to the temple together to show up.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, footsteps were finally heard at the door, and several old ladies came in, chatting and laughing. "Jiasheng daughter-in-law, let's hurry up and go. We are in a hurry today."

The moment Luo Youyou heard the sound, he quickly picked up the porridge he had just served and walked straight towards Yang Qian. As he got closer and closer to her, he seemed unable to hold the boiling porridge and accidentally tripped, spilling the porridge on Yang Qian's clothes.

With Yang Qian's scream, Luo Youyou also fell to the ground and cried loudly. Of course, her crying was fake, but her tears were real. She just wanted to make Yang Qian panic.

While wiping her clothes, Yang Qian started to scold: "How can you be so clumsy, kid..." She swallowed her words when she saw a few people at the door.

The people at the door were also startled by the sudden noise. When they realized what was happening, they rushed in to help Luo Youyou up and asked with concern, "Are you okay? Did you fall anywhere?"

Luo Youyou's eyes moistened as she looked at those concerned eyes, and then she saw the indifference and impatience on Yang Qian's face, and she felt contempt in her heart, "I always thought she only liked her uncle and his family more. In fact, this woman doesn't even consider my father as a family, let alone her granddaughter who has no blood relationship with me. She is not as concerned as an outsider."

Yang Qian told those people to change her clothes and hurried upstairs.

They had to arrive at Puguang Hall before nine o'clock, and there was not enough time now.

Luo Youyou calculated the time and thought that Yang Qian should have almost changed her clothes by now. She also went upstairs and entered Yang Qian's room. At this time, Yang Qian was buttoning the last few buttons.

"Grandma, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

While apologizing, Luo Youyou walked to the clothes that Yang Qian had changed out of, and calmly used her body to cover the old clothes, creating a blind spot for Yang Qian. She knew that the key to open the box was in the pocket of Yang Qian's clothes every day.

She wanted to bet that Yang Qian would not have time to think about the key today and would just go out.

But she still had to give her a push, "Grandma, the grandmothers downstairs said that time is running out, so they asked you to go quickly."

Yang Qian's expression tensed. After all, she really couldn't be late, and the host would be leading the chanting today, so she couldn't miss it.

"You stay at home and clean the house for me. Don't cause any more trouble. I will deal with you when you come back." After saying this, Yang Qian went downstairs without thinking, packed up the cloth bag and went out.

Seeing that Yang Qian really went out, Luo Youyou finally put down her worries. She only had this one chance. If she missed it, she didn't know when she would have to wait for another opportunity to get the key.

Luo Youyou went downstairs and closed and locked the door. Although the chances of that happening were slim, she was still afraid that Yang Qian would suddenly return home, so locking the door would give her time to deal with the situation.

Returning to Yang Qian's room, she began to grope the clothes that Yang Qian had taken off.

The reason why she understood Yang Qian so well was actually thanks to her past self’s careful observation of Yang Qian.

In her previous life, she never understood why Yang Qian was always indifferent to her. She would magnify every little thing and lecture her repeatedly, saying that she was biased towards boys. But she was extremely good to her aunt, but had no feelings for her father, mother, or even herself.

So she always wanted to observe her, see what she was doing, and try to please her.

It is also one of Yang Qian's habits to take out the things in the old clothes after changing into a whole set of new clothes. She will not take out the things first, for fear that she will put them somewhere else and forget them.

This actually gave Luo You an opportunity.

Finally, I found a bunch of keys in the inner pocket of my coat.

All the keys to the house should be on it, seven in total.

Luo Youyou quickly and carefully moved out the camphorwood box from under the bed. The box was a bit big for Luo Youyou now. There were a lot of things in it, and it was quite heavy. Luo Youyou took a lot of effort to take it out.

Looking at the lock above, this lock is very special, like the locks in ancient costume dramas. Luo Youyou quickly found the matching one from the seven keys.

The key was inserted into the lock cylinder, and with a crisp sound, the lock opened.

Luo Youyou opened the box immediately, but she didn't look through it right away.

She had to remember to keep everything in its original place, without any signs of being moved, so that even if Yang Qian came back and opened the box, she would not be suspicious at first.

In addition to some cloth and clothes, there was cash and two gold rings in the box.

Not seeing the jade pendant, Luo Youyou began to take out the clothes layer by layer and placed them on the ground in order. Finally, a small red cloth bag appeared. It was pressed between two pieces of clothing and stuffed in the pocket of one of them.

If the edges and corners of the red cloth bag had not been completely hidden in the pocket, it would not have been discovered.

Luo Youyou slowly pulled out the cloth bag, untied the red rope at the mouth, opened the bag, and inside was the jade pendant.

Luo Youyou didn't dare to get excited. She quickly and carefully hid the jade pendant in her pocket, put the cloth bag back, and carefully pulled out a little bit of the corner to expose it, as if it had not been touched.

He put the clothes back one by one and checked that everything was in its original place. Then he closed the lid with peace of mind, locked it, and put the key back into the pocket of the old clothes.

Luo Youyou's heart was beating very fast, "bang bang bang". She hurried back to her room, locked the door immediately, ran to the bed, took out the jade pendant and looked at it carefully.

In fact, Luo Youyou had seen this jade pendant countless times in his previous life.

In the previous life, after Yang Qian died, Grandpa Luo Jiasheng would hold the jade pendant in his hand every night, looking at it from left to right, and then fall into a long period of contemplation.

Luo Youyou also often looked at the jade pendant carefully.

The jade pendant is milky white in color, crystal clear and warm, without a trace of impurities. The whole piece is rectangular, with two lifelike dragon patterns carved on the sides, and the words "Long Life" in the middle.

Although Luo Youyou didn't know much about jade, in her previous life, she visited a client who liked to collect jade. His family had a collection of jade pendants from different eras, and none of them had more exquisite carvings or better quality than this one.

Luo Youyou looked at it over and over again for a long time before carefully wrapping the jade pendant, placing it at the innermost part of the drawer, locking it, and carrying the key with him.

Having solved a rather difficult problem, Luo Youyou was in a good mood. Seeing that it was almost lunchtime, Luo Youyou cleaned up the porridge that had just been spilled, and went out to Xiaomei's house humming a little tune.
