Let's just drift through life together in this quick transmigration story.
Chapter 134 The Ghost King's Beloved Wife's Unlucky Sister (15)
Xiong Bufan eventually managed to appease Xu Yaqin with a set of white jade jewelry he had taken from Qiao Yujie's private collection: a pair of jade bracelets, a pair of earrings, and a dragon and phoenix pendant.
Gold and silver can be used to buy food, but jade items can't be exchanged for any food and are fragile, so Xiong Bufan didn't cherish these things. He only took them because Qiao Yujie treated them like treasures, hoping she would redeem them with gold and silver. But she never did, and Xiong Bufan got upset about it, thinking Qiao Yujie was too stingy.
After receiving the jewelry, Xu Yaqin asked Xiong Bufan in surprise, "Fenghua, where did you get these things? They are so exquisite!"
Xiong Bufan: Of course it's meticulous. If it's not meticulous, the craftsmen will lose their heads.
However, when Xu Yaqin asked about the origin of this set of items, Xiong Bufan was a little worried. He couldn't very well say that he had taken it from the palace, because Xu Yaqin wouldn't believe him. So he replied, "Xu Jiaojiao gave it to me, but don't tell anyone."
The advantage of having an older sister is that you can claim any strange or unusual thing as a gift from her. If someone doesn't know what it is, you can give them a disdainful look and say, "Idiot, you don't even know this?"
Hearing Xiong Bufan's words, Xu Yaqin finally felt relieved and accepted the items. She liked the white jade bracelet more and more as she wore it on her wrist. The dragon and phoenix pendant was also nice; it felt cool to the touch. Afraid of getting sweat on her hands, Xu Yaqin wiped the dragon and phoenix pendant separately before reluctantly putting it into her schoolbag.
The two made up and happily walked home.
When Xiong Bufan arrived home, Xu Jiaojiao had not yet returned. Xu's father had already gone out to look for her. A little girl had been missing for several hours. Even though there are fewer kidnappers now, it is still very worrying.
When Xu's mother saw Xiong Bufan return, she quickly asked, "Fenghua, have you seen Jiaojiao?"
Xiong Bufan asked Kongkong, "And who is Jiaojiao?"
"The female lead."
Xiong Bufan shook his head. "I've never seen it before, but if you provide a full meal, I can help you find it."
Xu's mother scolded playfully, "When did I ever make you hungry?" Then, as if remembering something, she added, "Go back and wash your hands and eat first. Remember to leave some for us. After you finish eating, go do your homework. I'll go look for Jiaojiao."
When the topic of food came up, Xiong Bufan readily agreed, saying, "Okay."
Xu's mother cooked a lot, even more than yesterday. Xiong Bufan filled a large bowl with rice and vegetables, then turned on the TV. He ate while watching TV, which was a great enjoyment in his life.
Both episodes of the TV series had ended, and it was already dark outside. Xu's parents and Xu Jiaojiao had not yet returned. Xiong Bufan looked at the rice in the pot, and without hesitation, scooped all the rice into a bowl, added some hot water to the vegetables, and then took the bowl back to continue watching TV and eating.
As long as Xu's parents are not in danger, or if there are other matters that will not affect the mission, Kongkong generally will not interfere with Xiong Bufan's decisions.
Xu's mother searched around the village with a flashlight, but apart from startling the dogs, she didn't see any trace of Xu Jiaojiao, nor did she see any villagers. Undeterred, Xu's mother headed towards the town, thinking that Jiaojiao might be playing with her classmates and hadn't returned yet.
Xu Jiaojiao and Jiang Ming went up the mountain together, and many people saw it. So Xu's father came to the Jiang family in a rage. How dare he deceive Jiaojiao? He wanted to ask Wang Xiufang how she raised her son. He was so young and hadn't learned anything good, deceiving young girls everywhere.
Wang Xiufang didn't get up from the ground until sunset. She called out to the house, but Jiang Ming didn't answer. He had just started to walk unsteadily into the house when he saw Xu's father walking over aggressively and asking, "Sister-in-law Jiang, is Jiang Ming home?"
"He's not home. He went to cut pig feed this morning and hasn't come back yet."
Xu's father clearly didn't believe it. He walked around the Wang family's house but didn't find Jiang Ming. He came out and said, "They all saw Jiang Ming and Jiao Jiao go up the mountain together."
When a man and a woman go up the mountain alone, the woman will ultimately suffer. Wang Xiufang quickly said, "Father-in-law, don't be anxious. I promise you, when Jiang Ming comes back, no matter what, I will make sure that Ming'er and Jiao Jiao get engaged."
Xu's father's "humph" was an acknowledgment of Wang Xiufang's statement.
The two began to search for Xu Jiaojiao and Jiang Ming together on the mountain. Along the way, Xu's father glared at Wang Xiufang, and Wang Xiufang, feeling guilty, could only try her best to call out their names. They saw wilted pig feed on the mountain, but no sickle, so they continued to walk into the mountain.
Along the way, Xu's father kept calculating and determined the approximate direction and location of the two people. He continued to move in that direction, but the divination said that Xu Jiaojiao was in a house. The further Xu's father went into the mountains, the stranger it seemed. How could there be a house in the mountains? Houses in the deep mountains are usually not ordinary shelters. Xu's father secretly regretted his carelessness in not taking out his magic tools when he left.
Xiong Bufan finally finished eating all the food. He looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already past eight o'clock. There was still no sign of the three people returning.
Xu Jiaojiao is a troublemaker, always disrupting her wonderful life. Otherwise, at this time, Xiong Bufan should be at home reading and studying, instead of running wildly in the jungle and occasionally knocking over a few wild ghosts.
Having eaten his fill, Xiong Bufan was much faster than before, dashing through the forest like the wind and finally stopping in front of an old house. "Kongkong, have I been here before?"
"Yes, you've also killed quite a few wild ghosts and monsters here."
"Xu Jiaojiao is inside."
"Yes, but I don't recommend you go in, because she will lead you astray."
Xiong Bufan silently took out her sword. She couldn't drag Xu Jiaojiao out, but she thought it would be better to let Xu Jiaojiao come out on her own. She had a good idea.
Kongkong lit a candle for Xu Jiaojiao in advance, hoping she would have a strong heart.
