His tone was very casual, just like a famous painting of inestimable value in his eyes, but nothing more.

However, against the backdrop of the entire secret room filled with rare treasures, the painting in Ruan Zhen's hand was indeed inconspicuous.

Her eyes turned, then froze.

He turned around and handed the album to Gu Huaizhi, then walked a few steps to the left, stopped on a wall, his eyes fell on it, and his tone turned into surprise: "What is written on it, is it a music score?"

The lady Ruan Xi hired earlier was the best at playing the piano. Seeing Ruan Zhen's interest, she also gave some basic lessons.

The wife's favorite piece of music was a piece from the previous dynasty, but she would always stop midway through it. After thinking about it, she would always sigh, saying that the second half of the score had been lost long ago.

However, what is on the wall is the complete piece of music.

Gu Huaizhi threw the album away and looked in the direction Ruan Zhen pointed. He didn't want to say anything, so he just responded softly with a nasal voice: "Yeah."

"Isn't it lost? My husband once said that it was bought by a royal dignitary a hundred years ago, and then there was no news. I didn't expect that it would end up in my husband's hands after going around a lot."

The woman looked into her own eyes, flashing with tiny lights.

Yes, this woman has always admired her.

"Ruan Zhen, restrain yourself."

"This expression looks like it's going to eat me up."

Ruan Zhen was about to ask where the ancient book was now, when she saw Gu Huaizhi's eyes fixed on her: "You haven't left in your childhood, so don't covet me anymore."

The smile on Ruan Zhen's lips faded inch by inch.

She calmed herself down, obviously not wanting to argue with him.

"Mom said you are good at music, how come I have never heard you play the flute and play the harp?"

The woman's voice was soft, but there was a trace of confusion. But it was like a thunder in Gu Huaizhi's ears. The whole life that he finally suppressed, and he didn't want to think about it, didn't dare to face it, seemed to be replaying in front of his eyes.

Jiao Jiao also said this sentence, word for word.

——My mother said that you are good at music, how come I have never heard you play the flute and play the harp?

——I haven’t practiced for a long time.

——But I want to hear it. The child also asked me to convey that he wants to hear his father play the flute and play the harp.

Gu Huaizhi's body tensed up, and the teasing look in his eyes was replaced inch by inch by a dim light that Ruan Zhen couldn't see through. It was so dark.

He grabbed Ruan Zhen momentarily, and his voice was low and hoarse: "Do you want to hear it?"

Ruan Zhen hesitated for a moment, feeling that something was wrong. How could Gu Huaizhi be so easy to talk to? There might have been some deceit.

The young lady shook her head without thinking: "I don't want to."

Gu Huaizhi, who was ready to ask Changsu to bring the piano in at any time:...

Ruan Zhen: “Where is the ancient book?”

"This ancient song will probably never be passed down to the world."

Um???

Gu Huaizhi said casually: "A few years ago, Sheng Qinan was roasting rabbit meat. There was not enough firewood, so that idiot took the ancient music and burned it."

Ruan Zhen:???

smoothly???

She had trouble breathing.

Can't even say a word.

"That idiot also said that rabbit meat roasted using ancient recipes really tastes good."

Ruan Zhen:......

She doesn't really want to see Sheng Qinan recently.

The young lady tried her best to focus on the sidelines, and looked carefully at one box after another.

Ruan Zhen opened the gold and those large objects, and finally saw some dusty trinkets in the corner. When he saw a pair of Ru kiln blue and white peony cups placed in the exquisite box, his eyes lit up.

Ruan Zhen raised her eyes to look at Gu Huaizhi: "Can you give me this object?"

She touched the small sapphire peony cup from Ru Kiln, and then pinched the sapphire dressing table beside it. Her voice was sweet, and a smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth: "I like them all."

The young lady lowered her eyes and did not allow Gu Huaizhi to speak. She whispered: "I like it, then it is mine."

She was still very reasonable and did not forget to raise her head and look at Gu Huaizhi eagerly: "Is that okay?"

The young lady waited quietly for his reply.

Gu Huaizhi laughed angrily.

"What did you say before you came in?"

Just take a look???

"I forgot." She frowned.

What a forgetful one.

Gu Huaizhi:......

Gu Huaizhi sneered: "Why didn't you tell me that I would keep the key for you and give you all the items here?"

Ruan Zhen looked at Gu Huaizhi disapprovingly: "Then am I not a robber?"

Gu Huaizhi:......

After saying this, Ruan Zhen fell into deep thought for a moment, and then looked at Gu Huaizhi cautiously: "If you really want to, husband, I can help you keep it, so that you won't let your cousin use it indiscriminately, which will really ruin the family."

As she spoke, she did not forget to nod slightly in agreement.

If some of the cultural relics here are not properly preserved, they will become worthless sooner or later.

Gu Huaizhi looked at Ruan Zhen, with no emotion or anger on his face. It was really hard to guess what he was hiding in his heart.

Ruan Zhen clenched her fingers into a fist, and under Gu Huaizhi's gaze, she raised one finger.

"I will definitely take it seriously and take good care of it."

As she spoke, she raised another finger.

"These objects will not be damaged in the slightest."

Gu Huaizhi looked at her patiently and raised another finger.

Her fingers were white and soft, as flawless as jade, but the young lady loves beauty, so she even applied khaodan on her nails. The khaodan shone softly, making her hands softer and pearly.

Ruan Zhen gave examples one by one: "I won't be greedy, it's better than letting others take care of me."

Gu Huaizhi's eyes were gleaming, his expression was relaxed, his voice was neither urgent nor slow, and his tone was just right: "Are you sure?"

Ruan Zhen was stunned.

Gu Huaizhi raised his hand noblely, motioning Ruan Zhen to take a look at the Ru kiln's green jade peony cup and the green jade dressing table.

Ruan Zhen was very unhappy and complained: "Why did you interrupt me?"

"Who are you angry at?"

Ruan Zhen didn't know how to answer the question for a moment, so she could only lower her head, blink her almond-shaped eyes, lower her voice, and weakened: "It's just... it's your fault."

Gu Huaizhi stared at her for a few seconds, and then said quietly, "Well, my bad."

He stretched out his hand, and his movements were neither gentle nor rude. He opened Ruan Zhen's other finger and said, "Go on."

Ruan Zhen pursed her lips and her mood became depressed: "But I forgot where I mentioned it."

The lines on the man's face softened after these words.

"You said you wouldn't be greedy."

Ruan Zhen:......

No need to remind her of this.

She suddenly raised her head: "If you don't give it to me, you just want to keep it for another little lady."

A woman is like a cat with exploded fur.

The emotions on Furong's face became more vivid as a result.

His girl should be somewhat arrogant.

Instead of being suppressed by previous experiences.

"Give."

The man was very talkative at the moment: "When you want to hear the music of the piano later, you can talk to me about it."

Ruan Zhen always felt that something was not right with Gu Huaizhi today, and she regretted a step cautiously: "Then I probably don't want to hear it."

Gu Huaizhi:......

"Why, are you afraid that I will eat you?"

Ruan Zhen said nothing.
