Mountain People

The Cuizhu Mountain at night looked a little gloomy in the cold wind. The lanterns hanging on both sides of the road were swayed by the cold wind, collided with the wooden shelves, and rustled from time to time , The two walked in the night, only the whirring of the wind was left in their ears.

Dong Chenghu held Gu Shuixiu a little worriedly. He didn't plan to let Gu Shuixi come out with him, but Gu Shuixiu would come and see what he said. Dong Chenghu treated her pregnant woman. There was really no other way, so I had to protect her with a high degree of tension.

As soon as they entered the valley, they crossed a barren field and went to the livestock pen. The donkeys in the donkey cart had been locked in the sheep pen. Gu Shuixiu saw the three donkeys in it and wanted to cry. No tears.

At first, I bought a donkey to pull the mill, then I bought another donkey for the sake of calculating Gu Laifu, and now I bought another donkey to pull the stolen money. These two donkeys are not visible. If Gu Shuixiu was killed, he would not be able to bear it. After all, donkeys are also livestock that can cultivate fields. It would be a pity to kill them. What if someone finds out later?

Gu Shuixiu couldn't think of a good solution for the time being, so she had to put this matter aside.

Dong Chenghu unloaded all the things on the donkey cart, Gu Shuixiu only saw six tightly sealed baskets, those books and antiques of medicinal materials have been moved into the warehouse by Dong Yi, the rest It should be all gold and silver jewelry.

Gu Shuixiu's eyes widened and she covered her mouth, exclaiming, "Didn't you say that it was divided into four parts? , it's impossible to fit six baskets!"

Dong Chenghu motioned for Gu Shuixiu to lower her voice, and then said, "This place is not fully filled, only half of it is filled with straw and leaves."

When Dong Chenghu cleaned up the sundries in the basket, Gu Shuixiu finally saw the so-called gold and silver jewelry.

The gold and silver are all mixed together, occupying three baskets in total, and the other three baskets are filled with gold and silver jewelry, precious jade, and it is simply not something that people like them can afford of.

It seems that these things can only be the same as those two donkeys, and they cannot see the light for the time being.

Eat for many lifetimes.

Including those jewelry and jade, their family suddenly upgraded from a wealthy household to a big landlord.

Gu Shuixiu took out some of the money, and worked with Dong Chenghu to find a hidden place to hide. Go home and lie down.

The next day, Zuo Qingsong took Dong Yunmei and the children back early in the morning. After the two got home, Dong Yunmei asked softly, "Qingsong, what can you gain from this trip?"

After asking, Dong Yunmei said with some self-reproach: "It's all my fault, if it wasn't for my body, you wouldn't have to take the risk, it's alright now, there's a way for Shuixiu , My health is much better than before, it doesn't matter if I don't eat those precious medicinal herbs, I can hold on. It will definitely get better in a year or two, so don't go out and take risks in the future, okay?"

Zuo Qingsong hugged Dong Yunmei and smiled dotingly: "Whatever you say, I will listen to you, this time we went out, we did get a lot of good things, and also I found some precious medicinal materials in the old forest in the deep mountains, and I brought them back. If you feel unwell in the future, you can get some soup and drink it, and our family can afford it."

Can I afford it? The silver alone is more than 10,000 taels, plus those medicinal materials, even if he eats it every day, Dong Yunmei's body will definitely recover completely.

The Qin family on the other side went home last night. In order to avoid long nights, Uncle Qin made up a good speech with Qin Shan and Qin Chuan. He only said that they found black bears and deer in the deep mountains. More than a thousand taels of silver.

Hao didn't know the exact price of the prey, and Liu Yueyi was even more ignorant about it. They believed what Uncle Qin said, without any doubt.

In front of Hao Shi and Liu Yueyi, Uncle Qin divided the money into three parts, one for Qin Shan and one for Qin Chuan. two or so.

Liu Yueyi has no objection to this, Hao just paused and smiled and accepted Uncle Qin's arrangement. She originally thought that Uncle Qin would put away all the money, after all, Qin Chuan was not married yet , When they didn't split up, they didn't want Uncle Qin to directly divide into three parts. This would be extremely fair, and even Mrs. Hao couldn't say anything.

Liu Yueyi felt very hot holding the five hundred taels, and immediately handed over the silver to Qin Shan as soon as she returned to the house, "You can use this silver as you wish, or you can save it and put it in I can't sleep well here."

She has a dowry of fifty or sixty taels, and there is no place for money in the mountains.

But Qin Shan had to give the money to her whenever he said anything, and said firmly: "I said I want you to live a good life, you just keep it. You are the eldest daughter , Marrying me is already wronging you, although I, Qin Shan, have no ability, but I want you to know that I can also let you live a well-off life!"

Liu Yueyi was moved to tears silently by Qin Shan's words, and instead of insisting on handing over the money to Qin Shan, she tightly clutched the bag containing the money and said softly, "Xiang Gong, thank you! If it weren't for you Marry me, I can't say I'm a cup of loess now, since you want me to keep it for you, then I'll keep it and keep it for the children's daughter-in-law or anything else."

Liu Yueyi is determined not to spend the money on herself.

The three families were all happy when they got the money. Only Shen Shikang had no idea about the money and only told Yang Yi to send the money back to the Shen family. Shen Shikang accompanies the children to write in the study. The difference is that the children are working hard to practice calligraphy, while he is working hard to copy orphaned books.

Looking at his sleepless posture, I guess he didn't plan to go back to Shen's house before he finished copying these books.

The life of Cuizhushan has returned to peace, but everyone has a vague expectation for the unknown future in their hearts. This expectation is indescribable and mysterious.
