This is Xing Sanzai, otherwise it would be easy for Wang Meilan to beat Zhao Youcai.
"What did our dad tell you before?" Wang Meilan gritted her teeth and asked the same two questions as before, "What did our dad tell you?"
"Our dad..." Zhao Youcai clicked his eyes and said, "You told me that the day we left."
"That's not right, brother-in-law." After Zhao Youcai finished speaking, Wang Qiang raised questions and said, "That's what we asked you that time. We asked our father what he didn't say to you before he left, so you just said no."
The "time" that Wang Qiang was talking about was after Zhao Youcai came back from Hansongbaozi and provided information about Golden Grapes. Wang Meilan asked Zhao Youcai if Mr. Wang had left any other information when he left.
At that time, Zhao Youcai swore he didn't have it, but today he has it again...
"It's been so many years." Faced with Wang Qiang's doubts, Zhao Youcai still spoke plausibly and said, "It's only after I said this that I remembered..."
Zhao Youcai defended himself but was glared at by Wang Meilan and then fell silent.
She stopped Zhao Youcai's nonsense with her eyes, and Wang Meilan immediately asked him, "Just tell me, what did our dad tell you?"
"Our dad..." Zhao Youcai blinked his beady eyes twice more, frowned and recalled, "I kept saying that the Gaotashan grapes were delicious, and then I had nothing to do with that piece..."
Zhao Youcai was stunned mid-sentence, and then said "Oh" under the gazes of Wang Meilan, Wang Qiang and Xing San.
Looking at Zhao Youcai's appearance, he was obviously thinking of something.
"What are you doing?" Wang Meilan asked. Zhao Youcai crossed his legs and turned to Wang Meilan. He raised his left hand and pointed his index finger at it, saying, "I remembered, Lan."
"Ah?" Wang Meilan urged, "Now that you remember it, tell me."
Under the gaze of the three people, Zhao Youcai said: "Our father told me that he marked the stretch of the mountain grapes that time, as well as the opposite slope and the back slope.
Let me wait until the weather becomes more peaceful and dig back all the trees that were marked. My dad said they are all money trees."
"Pah!" After hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Wang Meilan slapped her thigh, looked at Zhao Youcai and asked, "Dad, why didn't you say this earlier?"
"Um..." Zhao Youcai said weakly: "How could I expect him to bury something under that tree? The old man said it was a money tree or something, and I also thought about his feudal superstition. I also told him, dad, please stop talking.
, it’s a big deal for people to listen to it!”
Hearing what Zhao Youcai said, Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang turned away in anger. Xing San was not angry, but also lowered his head.
Wang Meilan quickly turned around. She seemed to want to say something, but she took a deep breath and held back the words that came to her lips.
But then, Wang Meilan asked Zhao Youcai again: "If you think about it again, what else did our father leave for you?"
"It's nothing." Zhao Youcai was a little confused, but quickly said firmly: "It's really nothing."
Wang Meilan twitched the corner of her mouth. Zhao Youcai had this expression last time and said the same thing.
"Well..." At this time, Xing San took the initiative to act as a peacemaker. He said to Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan: "Second brothers, and younger siblings, Qiangzi, we now know the place, let's pay close attention to the things in these places.
come out."
"Brother," Wang Qiang said, "It's not easy to work here, and we can't burn pits there."
It is now the end of January, just before the twelfth lunar month, and it is already freezing. Five meters underground are frozen, making it difficult to dig with a shovel or pickaxe.
If you want to break ground at this time, you have to burn the pit. Burning the pit doesn't just require lighting a fire, it will take a long time.
As soon as the fire burns, the smoke rises and the fire burns for two or three hours, either attracting forest rangers or nearby forest guards.
It's been a dry winter, so everyone has to come and see if it's causing wildfires.
When it comes to recruiting people, it’s hard to explain to them.
Because pits are burned in winter, one is for burial, and the other is for road maintenance.
That area is not close to a village, so burials do not have to be that far away, otherwise it would be difficult to visit the grave in the future.
As for road maintenance, you have to burn kangs near the roadside.
This is also the reason why Zhao Jun was not in a hurry to find Golden Grapes.
"Yeah." Xing San took Zhao Youcai's cigarette and fire, lit the Shilin cigarette and took a puff, and then said: "Last time I talked about golden grapes and golden watermelon, so don't think about it yet. You old man will definitely have to bury that.
Bury it deeper. The thing itself has to sink (chèn) by itself, and you can't dig it at this time."
"Brother, let's look for these things first." When Wang Meilan spoke, she pointed at Mrs. Tang.
"That's right!"
"Maybe my father-in-law didn't take this as a good thing." Zhao Youcai said a joke, but Wang Meilan pricked him with his eyes.
Wang Meilan felt a hatred in her heart. It has been twenty years since the old man left. You should have told everyone what he said before his death. Didn't you pick up the things long ago? Is it still time for people to pick them up?
These bronze wares are not as valuable as gold. They are better than these. If anyone likes them, Wang Meilan can even give them to them. But if they are just lost, Wang Meilan will not approve them.
"Brother." At this time, Wang Qiang said to Xing San: "Then let's go for a walk up the mountain tomorrow morning?"
"Let's take a walk." Xing San said, "Let's go over and take a look and see what's going on."
Zhao Youcai also wanted to take a walk, but he knew that there was no one to support him and he couldn't leave.
To be honest, Zhao Youcai's treatment at home these two days made me feel uncomfortable all over.
In the past, when he went to work, he would rest at home one day a week. On that day, he would rest even if he didn't go up the mountain.
It's nothing like this, with people coming and going every day, entertaining people on and off the table, which makes Zhao Youcai, who is not very talkative, extremely uncomfortable.
But at this time, Zhao Youcai couldn't say he regretted it. He thought that after he was busy for a while, he would have the opportunity to go up the mountain to fight the siege.
After discussing the matter of going up the mountain to hunt for treasure tomorrow, Wang Qiang finished smoking the cigarette and got up and went home.
"Brother!" Wang Meilan put the thermos bottle on the table next to the kang and said to Xing San: "Heat your feet to relieve your fatigue."
Xing San responded, and then saw Wang Meilan directing Zhao Youcai, saying: "Get that bedroll."
Zhao Youcai stood up and took down a set of quilts rolled together from the kang cabinet.
When Zhao Youcai put the bedding set on the kang, Wang Meilan reached out and pulled it over.
Seeing the quilt roll moving, the little lynx jumped up and down chasing the quilt roll. When the quilt roll stopped, the little lynx pounced on it.
"Get off here!" Wang Meilan pulled it away, then opened the quilt roll and said to Xing San: "Brother, this is what I, Xiaomei, and Qiangzi's wife gave you after you left this morning.
Lie on the quilt. From now on, this set will be yours, and you will cover it with this when you get home."
As she spoke, Wang Meilan held a corner of the quilt with one hand and said, "This cotton is all new, so it's warm."
Xing San was deeply moved by Wang Meilan's words. The old man subconsciously raised his hand and touched the quilt lightly. Then he looked up at Wang Meilan and said, "You want to make me a quilt? This is too troublesome."
"Then what's the trouble?" Wang Meilan said with a smile: "When the New Year is over, as soon as their Lengchang gang retreats, the army will go up the mountain to pick you up. After that, you can celebrate the New Year with us at home."
"That won't work." When Xing San heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly and said, "That won't work."
The old man was a little embarrassed, feeling like he was causing trouble to the Zhao family.
"What's wrong with that?" Wang Meilan said: "How can you deal with it if the Lengchang field is so empty?"
"That's right, brother." Zhao Youcai agreed and advised Xing San: "Come home, we have everything to eat and drink at home. After that, let's have a drink and look at the small brands. We will have a lot of fun in a day."
"Brother." After Zhao Youcai finished speaking, Wang Meilan continued to persuade, saying: "Let's go down to the mountain and stay at home for a while. We will take a look after the New Year. If there is an empty house in this village, we will build one. That's okay.
How much is it? Don’t live in the mountains anymore. You are getting older every year, and it will be cold living in that shack."
"Well... that's okay. Second brother, younger brother and sister, I'll have to cause you a lot of trouble in the future." Xing San, who had become more and more stubborn since the death of his wife and son, was actually persuaded by Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan. He had always followed
He was so stubborn and stubborn, but he still spoke politely when he arrived at Zhao's house.
The reason for this is not only that the Zhao family treats him sincerely, but also that the Zhao family's life is so good.
If Xing San came down the mountain and stayed at Chen Jinmin's house, then he would leave after two days without any nostalgia.
"What's the trouble, brother?" Wang Meilan smiled, and then asked Zhao Youcai: "Hey, his dad? It's Han Chunsheng from your second cafeteria. Is his father-in-law going to leave with his son after the Chinese New Year?"
"It seems so." Zhao Youcai said, "I'll ask him tomorrow. If he says he wants to leave, I'll talk to him and book his house."
"Throw him a deposit." Wang Meilan said, "Don't let him change his mind before selling it to someone else."
"Sure!" Zhao Youcai responded, and then said to Xing San: "Brother, the two rooms in his house were tidied up the year before last, and the small house was neatly tidied up. The key is that his new house is only two blocks away from our house.
It only takes less than two minutes to reach the trail.”
No matter what Zhao Youcai had in mind, his words at this time made Xing San feel sincere.
At this time, the old man also lost his temper. He only heard Xing San say: "I told the boy today that when I return to Lengchang, I will buy a few more big leather cases. After that, I will run to a few shacks and let the old lamps cut the skins."
Sell them all here."
As soon as Xing San said this, Zhao Youcai and Wang Meilan stopped him in unison, saying: "Brother, pull him down quickly."
"Huh?" Xing Sanyi was startled and said, "What's going on?"
The couple looked at each other and couldn't tell Xing San that my son won't let you do business. If you blame anyone, the best result for that person will be that his family will be ruined.
"What...that..." Wang Meilan organized her words in her mind, and then said to Xing San: "Brother, that's what happened. We all have almost used up the money, and we can still maintain normal conditions these days.
But if you go out to find someone else, and they bring things to our house to sell, then if we don’t handle it well, we won’t have money to give it to them.”
"Ah..." Xing San frowned when he heard this and said, "Before dinner in the evening, that kid from the Dayong family said that we were causing famine or something."
When he said this, Xing San looked up at the sack on the kang cabinet and said, "Why don't you let me sell it to that ginseng to pay back the famine?"
The idea of the older generation is that they can't live in a state of famine.
"That's not possible." Wang Meilan immediately refused and said, "That's not for sale!"
"What can't be sold?"
As he said that, Xing San raised his hand and pointed upward, saying: "The year before last, I was setting up a roe deer trap, and I met Pang Blind Man and his friends who were helping to release the mountain. I talked to him through the phone, just this thing... Don't look at it, it's not big, it's for sale.
There is no problem in specifying 50,000 to 780,000 yuan.”
"Yes, brother." Wang Meilan nodded and said, "My son understands this. He said this is the king of ginseng, and he will get the old nose's money."
"Then sell it." Xing San said: "Sell it to fight the famine."
"No, no need." Wang Meilan said with a smile: "Brother, our skins, bear bile and so on can be sold in Hebei for money. This ginseng, the children say it is a treasure and cannot be sold."
With that said, Wang Meilan pointed to the box next to the sack bag and said to Xing San: "Brother, there is a golden bear bile and a musk in that box, which we keep for ourselves."
"Okay, brother and sister, if you say so, I won't care."
…
While the three of them were talking about their treasures at home, Zhao Jun was sitting in the passenger seat of the Jiefang vehicle.
At this time, Jie Chen was driving, and Li Baoyu and Zhao Jun were crowded together.
The journey to Fengtian was seven to eight hundred miles, and the three of them had to take turns driving. But Li Baoyu and Jie Chen both asked Zhao Jun to rest, and they took turns.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Currently, Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu are squeezing the co-pilot, and there is also a little black bear. When I came out from home today, I carried dozens of kilograms of heavy food in the car.
Pancakes.
When he was at Jie Chen's house, Zhao Jun soaked pancakes in hot water from a small basin and fed them to the two bears.
The little brown bear had been home for a few days and had become accustomed to being fed by humans. He didn't care about the food when he saw it, and ate a bowl of it with a slurping sound.
On the other hand, the little black bear has never been in a cage since it grew up. Now, it has become accustomed to the life of being teased by people every day. It is simply not used to being put into a cage and thrown in the trunk of a car.
, I suddenly became stressed and stopped eating and drinking.
Especially when the tarpaulin was put on the cage, it howled all day long. The day after it came out of the house, it started to howl.
When he was about to set off in the evening, Zhao Jun found that the little black bear was still barking even though its voice was hoarse.
Zhao Jun had raised it for such a long time and slept with it in his arms every day, so he had already developed feelings for it.
So, he took the little black bear out, took it to the passenger seat, tore pancakes and fed them to the little black bear.
The little black bear didn't eat at first, but after lying in Zhao Jun's arms for a while, he picked up the pancakes and ate them non-stop.
"Brother." Li Baoyu touched the little black bear's ears and said to Zhao Jun: "Why don't you keep it with little black bear? How pitiful you look."
"Yeah." Jie Chen, who was driving, agreed, "It's a pity for the ignorant."
After hearing what the two brothers said, Zhao Jun blinked and said, "Let's go there and see if it works."
After saying this, Zhao Jun paused for a moment before continuing: "From now on, don't mess around with living things at home. Everything will have feelings after being around it for a long time."
"That's not necessarily true." As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, Li Baoyu said with a smile: "Our family raises chickens and ducks for a whole spring and eight summers, wouldn't they all be killed and eaten for meat?"
"There are also the sheep and the roe deer." Jie Chen added: "My Aunt Zhao hammers them one by one."
