Chapter 384 A Different Flatbread
After returning home, Lin Xiuqing also asked him about getting the big tripod.
"Why did you donate it? Anyway, move it back and put it at home for a few days, so I can see what it looks like."
"Fool, this big cauldron may not be rare, but it is very fierce, so it is not good to keep it at home." Ye Yaodong said while taking off his dirty clothes.
"There is a saying that the tripod was used as a cooking utensil in ancient times to turn living things into dead things, and later it evolved into a clan sacrificial utensil, and it was also used to put sacrifices for sacrifices, so it was so fierce that ordinary people couldn't suppress it. "
"At first, I didn't think about it. Later, Aguang's father reminded me that I could put it in the temple to save space. Then I remembered that this tripod can't be held down by ordinary people. It can only be put in a museum or put it in the temple. In the temple."
Lin Xiuqing didn't know much about the tripod, so she lost her mind after hearing what he said about the big murder, and wanted to take a look at it.
"Then don't move it back. It's good to dedicate to Mazu, and it can be used in the temple."
"Um."
"Dad just brought me a bucket and said it contained what you wanted, and told me to hide it, but I didn't dare to open it. What is it?"
"Where did you put it?"
"Put it in the house and hide it."
Ye Yaodong heard the words and walked directly into the house, scanning the room.
Lin Xiuqing also followed him into the room, reminding him that he was behind the door, so he saw the barrel behind the door. He lifted the cloth on it and saw the intact black box inside. He bent down and hugged it out.
"What is this, A Dong?"
"I don't know. I haven't even opened it yet. There is a lock on it. Go and get the machete."
"oh."
The machete was placed in the firewood pile in the main room, Lin Xiuqing went and returned quickly.
This black box doesn't know what kind of wood it is made of, Ye Yaodong doesn't understand this, the lock on it has been corroded by sea water and rusty, the machete hacked twice, and the lock fell off.
He stretched out his hand impatiently, but just as he was about to open the lid, he suddenly thought of the pear blossom needle in the rainstorm in the martial arts drama...
He shook his head again, feeling that he had watched too many TV dramas, and he was overcompensated, but, ahem~
"Ah Qing, step aside a little and go to the side."
Lin Xiuqing was a little dazed, she didn't understand why she had to go to the side, but she still listened to him and moved to the side.
Ye Yaodong also aimed the black box at the door, and then opened it abruptly. Immediately, both husband and wife gasped, and their pupils constricted.
The legendary Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle is gone, but what appeared in the box shocked their jaws even more than the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle!
I saw a piece of gold in the black box, and a large pile of golden round gold cakes were piled inside. The golden and round appearance was very gratifying and eye-catching.
"A...A Dong..." Lin Xiuqing's voice trembled in shock, and she was still holding onto Ye Yaodong's arm tightly.
Ye Yaodong was also startled, and then instantly covered the box, clutching his beating heart, although Mele beads and ambergris were no worse than this, but those things hadn't been cashed out, there wasn't a pile of golden gold more intuitive and shocking.
"My God, you ask me every day if I found the money, and this time I really found the money."
"Huh? Ah Dong... I didn't get dazzled just now, did I?"
"Shouldn't be there, why don't you take another look?"
Ye Yaodong continued to open the box again, and the golden pancake came into view again, he couldn't help swallowing, "There are so many, I'm rich!"
Lin Xiuqing also widened her eyes, "No wonder the ancient emperor's clothes were made of yellow, it's so beautiful!"
He nodded in agreement, "It really looks good!"
This time, he took one out of the inside and put it on the lid. He weighed it in his hand and felt that one weighed about half a catty. "Take a bite and see if it's real?"
Lin Xiuqing really obediently took a bite, and then happily said: "Soft! It's still a little sweet."
"Sweet? Isn't it? Isn't flatbread sweet?"
"Why is this gold in the shape of a pie? It's so strange, I've never seen gold in such a shape."
"How many times have you seen gold?"
Uh... piercing my heart...
Lin Xiuqing glared at him, and continued: "Is this black box really from Haidilao?"
"Well, it was discovered together with the big tripod, and it was covered by seaweed around it. Fortunately, I have good eyesight and found it."
"Why do I feel like a dream?"
She caressed the gold cake back and forth fondly, always feeling a little unreal, she was still cleaning the table and sweeping the floor, but suddenly a large pile of gold cakes appeared in front of her, this is real gold.
Mele beads and ambergris are valuable, and she only listened to him verbally, but she really didn't have such an intuitive and shocking experience of the windfall.
The main reason is that she doesn't know what to buy. Those things are not as real as a pile of gold. Sitting on a pile of gold is the real wealth.
Country women are so tacky!
"I hate it!" After Lin Xiuqing slapped him, she reluctantly handed him the piece of gold cake she bit into, "What should I do with these things? Where should I hide them?"
Ye Yaodong put this piece of gold cake into the box again, and then thought for a while, "The lock on it is also broken, so it's not safe to put it at home... Hmm... How about burying it under the two osmanthus trees planted yesterday?"
"Under the tree?"
"Yes, let's bury it under the tree! Bury it deeper. You can't put eggs in one basket. You can put all your babies at home. I'm afraid they will be taken away in one pot. Anyway, the tree is just planted, and the soil is newly buried. Dig again. It’s a hole, you can’t see it if you bury it in it, anyway, the neighbors on the left and right know that I planted a tree yesterday.”
"And I discussed with the Zhou family next door. I bought materials from them, borrowed workers for a few days, and built us another room for the old lady to live in. By the way, I will spend more money to surround the yard and enclose the door. "
"It's okay, you can figure it out, anyway, we don't need money now, let's bury it first, it's useless to keep it in our hands."
"It's useless."
Ye Yaodong suddenly wasn't as happy as before, and he couldn't spend it immediately to realize it, so his happiness was halved...
Well, I still have to go to sea to continue working.
"Count the quantity before burying..."
Maybe the two couples were talking too loudly in the room, which directly affected the child's sleep. The baby's crying sounded instantly, and Lin Xiuqing hurried to comfort the child.
"Let me coax the child, you go to eat quickly, and then get busy after eating, we have eaten."
"All right, where are the two sons?"
"Where else could they go? They went to play next door."
"I can't see anyone when I come back all day, and I'm busier than I." Ye Yaodong went out to eat after muttering a few words.
He didn’t even bother to take a bath after eating, so he went into the room and counted the gold cakes, no more, no less, exactly 100, he silently calculated, it was about 50 catties!
No wonder the black box looks small and quite heavy.
Actually, the weight of this gold cake is 248 grams, but there is no scale, so he can only weigh it with his hands by feeling.
After counting, he put the gold cake back into the black box and covered it, but in an instant he took out another one, "Do you want to keep one by your side? It's convenient for you to take it out from time to time to have a look and touch it?"
Speaking of this, he remembered that in her previous life, she didn't even have a piece of gold jewelry. Their family was poor, and he didn't do anything. No.
Thinking of this, Ye Yaodong felt that after coming back, he didn't seem to be very competent, and he didn't even think of buying her a gold necklace, ring, earrings or something, so he had to find a time to arrange it.
"How many are there?" Lin Xiuqing asked while breastfeeding.
"Exactly one hundred, no more, no less, probably considered good."
"Then take one out and keep it by your side. You can look at it once in a while, and you'll be happy... The one with the tooth marks I bit just now, keep it. It's useless to keep the other ones at hand. Take it and bury it." .”
If conditions permit, how can a woman not like gold, silver and jewelry? Those who say they don't like it are either unconditional or too sensible.
Ye Yaodong took out one at random and didn't identify it. Hearing what she said, he started to rummage again, and then took it for her to play with.
Lin Xiuqing took it and said with a smile: "How could this ancient man think of making gold into a pancake shape? It's quite creative, and it's festive just looking at it."
"Who knows? Maybe I think the pancake can fill my stomach, and making it into this shape means it's good!"
"Maybe, our family is rich again, and it's enough. Mele beads, ambergris, and this box of gold cakes. From now on, the three brothers and sisters can choose any of them."
"You think too far, they are still young, so you thought of dividing the family property."
"Anyway, what I earn will be theirs."
Father Ye: Are these words familiar?
"Go take a shower, go to bed early, and get up and bury it at night when there is no one else."
"Well, there are a lot of goods these days. After the busy days, I will take some time to go up the mountain to cut some firewood and come back. A few days ago, I heard you say that there is almost no firewood."
"I don't need you. You should go out to sea. After the sun comes out for two days, I'll ask my sister-in-law or second sister-in-law to look after the child. I can cut it on the mountain."
"It should still be burning for two more days, let's talk about it when it's over." Maybe there will be people from somewhere in the county at that time, and he just had a rest, and he took time to go to the mountain to cut firewood, and the time was just right for him.
When he got up at night and saw that the cart of his elder brother and second brother was gone at the door, he knew that they left early and went to sea diligently.
He looked around and saw that there was no one around, and there was no movement at all, so he quickly took a **** and dug a deep hole directly under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, buried a box of gold cakes in it, and filled it with soil to restore the ground to its original state.
Then I hurried to the pier.
He was late, and was undoubtedly reprimanded by his father.
"Why dawdle for a long time and don't know how to come out? Have you rested for more than 20 days and haven't had enough rest? What time is it? Just come... Your eldest brother and second brother's boat has already left..."
"Okay, okay, I have something to delay, and I'm not a child, so you scold so many people."
"What's wrong with so many people, you are also my son with so many people, even if you are old, I can beat and scold you."
Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "Okay, go back and tell the old lady, let her scold you to death!"
The villagers next to them giggled...
Father Ye was annoyed and scolded the **** a few more times before following him onto the boat.
