Chapter 721: Chapter 718: A Box of Gold Bars

However, all Helian Qiao could do was ask curiously, "Who is Zhan Zaiqian?"

Upon hearing this name, Chen Jianjun’s mind was set in motion. "Guibao, what did the old man say?"

"The old man said, he wants to give the house to us, not to a beast named Zhan Zaiqian." Helian Qiao responded truthfully.

After recalling the words of the female neighbor, Chen Jianjun stayed silent for awhile before saying, "Old man, we cannot accept this house. One should not accept gifts for unmerited service. But I can help to donate the wealth to the country."

Then, he gently said to his daughter, "Guibao, go back to your room and sleep."

Helian Qiao nodded her head and declared with determination to the two ghosts, "Daddy said we don’t want this house!"

Next year, she’ll buy an even bigger and better house for her grandparents!

With that, she turned to go back to her room to sleep.

Once she had gone to sleep, there was no longer anyone to act as a medium between humans and ghosts.

Although the old man felt regret and helplessness, he also felt relief.

There are still many good people in this world!

Then he watched as Chen Jianjun moved the green stone slab, revealing a delicate box made of rosewood.

Upon opening it and looking inside, apart from a land deed, all there was were gold bars!

A whole box full of gold bars!

Any person whose will wasn’t as staunch as his, would at least hesitate when faced with so much gold.

But there wasn’t the slightest hint of greed in Chen Jianjun’s eyes.

With a serious face, he said, "Old man, I will donate these to the country tomorrow, in your name."

"There’s no need, an anonymous donation is enough." The old man shook his head.

He wasn’t after any recognition, he simply wanted to make a final contribution to his country.

But Chen Jianjun couldn’t hear him. After placing the box in the warehouse, he returned to his room to sleep.

The next morning, after eating breakfast, the highly motivated Chen Jianjun went to donate the gold bars. He was given a banner of honor and a thank you letter in return.

On his way back, he bought a bicycle and rode it home.

Lu Xiaofen had gone to the market to buy meat and vegetables, because she had agreed to cook lunch for the Gu Family today.

After bringing the groceries home, she washed the clothes of the trio and, once they were hung out to dry, she began preparing lunch.

When Chen Jianjun came home, he began helping her in the kitchen.

Just before eleven, the Gu Family arrived.

"Guibao!" Gu Tingyun’s voice came in from outside.

"Grandpa Gu, Aunt Wu!" Helian Qiao dashed out of the house, calling out joyfully.

Chen Jianjun and his wife also came out of the kitchen, "You’re here, come inside. Lunch isn’t ready yet."

"I was thinking of coming over early to help with the cooking."

Aunt Wu warmly offered, "Guibao, what do you want to eat for lunch? Aunt Wu will cook it for you!"

She was worried that Lu Xiaofen wouldn’t be able to handle everything by herself, so she offered to help with the cooking.

"Meat!" Little Princess responded crisply.

"Alright! Where is the kitchen?" Aunt Wu replied with a big smile.

Lu Xiaofen laughed and said, "All our guests are our friends. We can’t let our guests do the work. Come on in and take a seat."

"That’s okay, I’m used to doing things myself. Plus, Guibao loves the dishes I cook." Aunt Wu cheerfully replied.

Lu Xiaofen stopped insisting and, together with Aunt Wu, headed towards the kitchen, "The kitchen is over here."

The elder Gu, along with Gu Tingyun and Gu Siyu, stepped into the yard. As they looked around, admiring the environment, they thought that the house was quite elegant and refined!

In the yard, there was a stone table and stone bench. A chessboard pattern was carved on the table. Despite the weathering, one could still make out the pattern lines clearly.
