Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1125: The Real Treasure Vault

During this meal, all were deeply absorbed in pondering the jade pendant's mystery, hardly eating anything.

Once dinner ended, Mr. Gu declared, "Everyone, follow me to the study."

Han Jingchen lifted Han Chaojun from Gu Wanqing’s arms: "Dad, I’ll remain in the living room with Chaojun to watch over the outside."

Mr. Gu at first thought it unnecessary, yet with other people at home, he nodded in agreement.

Xinyan made a pot of tea, serving a cup to each person and setting them down in front.

Mr. Gu sipped his tea before speaking, "In the past, the old master couldn’t fully explain his matters, and I had no clue about a second jade pendant piece."

At these words, everyone furrowed their brows.

Mr. Gu refilled his own cup of tea: "Still, in my younger days, my grandfather mentioned a location multiple times, and the view from combining the jade pendants precisely fits his description.

As I matured, I joined my father on two visits there. Looking back, it was surely on purpose, though he didn’t tell me outright since I was too young."

Such revelation captured everyone’s focus, with all gazes shifting to Mr. Gu.

He went on, "Unless I’m wrong, that spot is the real stash place for the Gu family treasures."

Gu Wanqing’s face, once lit with excitement, darkened at the phrase ‘treasure hiding spot.’

That supposed treasure hiding spot and the mysterious family heirloom had nearly destroyed their family.

Evidently, the elderly Gu couple felt the impact too, their faces turning unpleasant.

Silence suddenly gripped the study.

Xinyan fully grasped the group’s sentiments.

Mr. Gu shattered the quiet first: "For now, let’s stick to our duties. When the moment arrives, we’ll head there. I’d like to witness in my life what treasure makes folks lose their minds."

Old Madam Gu added, "We’ll go during summer break with Yanyan by your side. Firstly, Wanqing’s tied up with Chaojun; secondly, a full group trip would attract eyes. No telling if watchers linger on our family—caution is key."

Xinyan agreed without issue, though Gu Wanqing appeared anxious and suggested, "Why not have Jingchen go along? He could manage any trouble."

Mr. Gu shook his head: "We’ll stick to your mother’s idea. With possible surveillance, traveling as a bunch would stand out too much.

The Ji Family relocated there en masse once—it’s a solid cover.

Then, we’ll claim Yanyan’s joining me to see old pals. A short stay, some strolls, and no one should suspect."

With plans set, they exited the study.

Sun Zhenjun’s wedding fell on a day Xinyan deliberately took off.

He Jinxuan arrived early, making two runs with Gu Wanqing’s car to ferry everyone to the Sun household.

Post-ceremony, Sun Zhenjun and his bride settled into the workplace-assigned home.

Apart from listed cash gifts in the ledger, Han Jingchen and Han Jingheng each handed over a thick envelope for their new life setup.

Gu Wanqing had planned to gift a factory-made refrigerator, but Han Jingchen held her back.

The Sun home buzzed with festive decorations that day. New bride He Jiewen, not from the area, had lodged in a hotel prior.

With He Jiewen as their sole daughter, her parents came to Beijing ahead, assembling her dowry to shield her from in-law mistreatment.

They poured nearly all savings into providing her a dignified start, wishing her poise and ease in her marital home.
