My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s - Chapter 89
Chapter 89: Chapter 90: Lost and Found
Tang Zhijun reached his hand into the open belly of the doll, and pulled something out.
Then, with a ‘thwack’, a dull sound came from the ground.
Quickly, Tang Zhijun picked up the object that had fallen to the ground. He held it unbelievingly in his arms as if he was feeling something. Then he placed the object on his knee with trembling fingers and slowly unwrapped it. When what was inside was revealed, he impulsively picked it up again.
When he looked up at his elder brother, Tang Zhinian, the latter had the same expression, as if he had seen a ghost.
“Brother, our family’s money is all here, not a penny less. I personally wrapped it, three layers.”
Indeed, this was undoubtedly their family’s money. He had counted each bill himself, made marks, then bundled it solidly. Even the oilcloth used to wrap it hasn’t changed. This was their money.
“Xinxin, where did you get this?”
Tang Zhinian picked up his daughter and sat her down on a pile of clothes.
“Uncle gave it to me, said it was for buying candy to eat,” Tang Yuxin replied without faltering.
“Given to you? How is that possible?” Tang Zhinian widened his eyes, “This money was clearly kept in my jar, I’ve never taken it out.”
“Uncle gave it to me,” Tang Yuxin wrinkled her little nose.
After all, she was a child and she would not lie.
“Brother, I didn’t…,” Tang Zhijun looked innocent and perplexed. He had clearly kept the money in the jar himself, placed it there with his own hands.
“Xinxin doesn’t lie,” Tang Zhinian stroked his daughter’s head, “Maybe you gave it to her while sleepwalking. I used to sleep deeply and dream of kicking her under the bed several times.”
This was something Tang Zhinian had personally experienced. This so-called sleepwalking was when people are actually asleep, but because their minds are on something, they unknowingly do certain things.
Perhaps Tang Zhijun was constantly thinking of buying candy for his young niece, so he had taken all the money out of the jar without realizing it himself. And all this while, he had assumed that the money was still in the jar.
“Could it be?” Tang Zhijun touched his head, could this really be the case? Could he be sleepwalking?
No way, he still didn’t believe he could sleepwalk, handing so much money to Tang Yuxin. But if it wasn’t so, then how could he explain finding this money inside the doll? Tang Yuxin was so young, she had no reason to lie, moreover, she did not have any concept of money, let alone knowing where to keep it?
If there was no issue with Tang Yuxin, then the troublemaker might be him.
And from then on, the two brothers of the Tang Family always thought they had sleepwalking symptoms, not knowing that their ever-so-honest niece, Tang Yuxin, had honestly fooled them.
“Brother, what should we do with this money?” Putting aside how this money ended up inside the doll, now it’s like their lost money has been restored, making them feel like they’ve flown from Hell into Heaven.
“First, put it on the tree,” Tang Zhinian pondered and spoke, already aware of the saying ‘wealth should be kept secret’. As for these clothes, it can be claimed that they had been stashed in the house buried underground. Regarding the money, it’s better not to talk about it. Currently, within the village, everyone was in this state, with houses gone, things gone, even money was gone.
