Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 913: Chapter 914: Sure Enough, Guessed Right

”Pfft!” Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

”Brother He has a fever? Miss Wu, shall I use a handkerchief to cover my face? I really need to see Brother He.” She lifted three fingers, ”I promise you, I’ll keep a straight face the whole time. Is that alright?”

”No way!” Wu Xiayue glared at her, ”Whatever you have to say, tell me.”

Chiang Xiao sighed.

In this situation, she really couldn’t just barge in to see He Jin.

Although she had always known that He Jin had no such feelings for her, Wu Xiayue guarded her like a wolf guarding its territory.

Chiang Xiao had to admire her for chasing after He Jin for so many years without giving up.

”Alright then, I’ll tell you first. I just want to ask if Brother He’s home has a study? Are there any old books, maybe from around ten years ago?”

Wu Xiayue breathed a sigh of relief, ”You want to see old books? Why didn’t you say so earlier? Of course, there’s a study! The plaque over the main gate was from the study. I’ll take you there; you don’t need to see He Jin!”

Chiang Xiao nodded helplessly, ”Alright, alright. But does Brother He have a high fever? Is it serious?”

”With me here to take care of him, of course, it’s not serious!” Wu Xiayue raised her chin proudly, ”Including you, I’ve already turned away four girls with ill intentions who came looking for him today!”

”So impressive.” Chiang Xiao gave her a thumbs up.

How could she have ill intentions toward He Jin?

If she dared to, she would probably be wiped out by a certain someone!

Wu Xiayue took her to the study, and as soon as Chiang Xiao pushed the door, she nearly stumbled at the sight of the books inside.

Two large bookshelves were crammed with books, and at first glance, there had to be close to a thousand. How long would it take her to find what she needed?

”Is there a classification?”

”No, that guy He Jin is too lazy to care about such things. It’s already good enough that everything is kept neat; you still want them categorized? You’ll have to look for it yourself! I’m going to check if he’s awakened.”

Wu Xiayue truly left her there to manage on her own and ran off.

Chiang Xiao then immersed herself in the study and after spending an entire hour searching, she actually discovered an old Huaming County annals with some wormholes in the corner!

She was so excited she almost jumped up!

She carefully pulled out the book and as soon as she opened it, she saw the line about Peace Town Siyang Village Big Mountain!

Chiang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat!

She immediately focused and continued reading.

The more she read, the more startled she became.

The author indeed recorded the existence of an unnamed ancient tomb in Bai Gu Mountain! However, the book did not mention the name Bai Gu Mountain; instead, it used the old name from the previous generation.

Moreover, the author noted that he heard from an old man about the existence of a large-scale tomb complex in the mountains and had not verified it himself.

But there were many who mentioned Bai Gu Mountain as an excellent feng shui location, stating that those buried there in the past must have been no ordinary people.

It was just a mystery why no historical records mentioned it.

After reading the content of the pages that were previously torn, Chiang Xiao was certain that the man from before must have been targeting the tombs in Bai Gu Mountain!

He carried such a large backpack; could it have been filled with tomb-raiding tools?

Chiang Xiao, holding the book, ran out to find Wu Xiayue.

At He Jin’s door, she was again stopped by Wu Xiayue, who was holding a kettle.

”Nearly slipped past me!” Wu Xiayue snorted, ”Didn’t I say you don’t need to visit He Jin?”
