Chapter 494: Underground Treasure

The next day, Zhang Niuyi and a few came to Zheng's house. The few hadn't been together for a long time, and they had endless things to say when they got together. After lunch, the four of them entered the mountain with dry food, bows and arrows and other hunting tools.

If you are lucky enough to hunt good things, you can come back that day. If you are not lucky, you have to go deeper into the mountains and spend the night in the mountains.

No matter whether they could catch prey or not, no one planned to stay in the mountains for too long, so they only brought dry food and water for two days, which made it easy to enter the mountains.

When Zheng Lin was not at home, Mang Ye was a little bored. However, her feet had not yet healed and it was not convenient to go out for a visit, so she could only stay at home to bring Lantern Festival and make needles and threads.

There are all clothes and shoes in the family, and the needlework she makes for the baby in Yue Niang's belly. She has done a lot of it before, but now she is doing clothes that the child wears at the age of three. The needlework is not her strength, and even though she has done a lot in recent years, she has not made much progress. She has been ridiculed by Sangzhi for this.

Oh, you're making needlework again! Sang Zhi brought a bag of snacks in his left hand and his right hand to Zheng's house. He saw the mulberry leaves sitting in the corner of the wall at a glance: You might as well spend some money to ask someone to make it, so as not to waste this excellent material.

Sang Ye glanced at her and continued to do needlework: Why are you here? You have settled down?

A while ago, Sangzhi and Huang Mutou ran to the town every day, wanting to find a place to move to the town as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, after searching for a while, they actually found a shop with a yard that could accommodate people.

It was because they were lucky. The owner of the shop was a foreigner. He suddenly fell ill because he was old and almost couldn't save him. He was afraid that he would die outside and could not return to his roots, so the boss decided to put the shop out and return to his hometown to enjoy his old age. He would never come back in the future.

The shop was so anxious that it wanted to sell it before the New Year, so the boss didn't ask for a price, and gave it all. The couple went to see it when they got the letter, and they took a look at it at a glance. Soon after raising enough money, they transferred the shop. They have been busy in the town for the past two days.

All of them have been settled and can move in in the next two days. Mangzhi grabbed a handful of melon seeds and said while eating them: The day after tomorrow is good. Mutou and I plan to set up two tables of noodles. Let’s have a meal and have fun.

Sang Ye thought about it and had nothing else to do, so he nodded: As expected, I will come with your brother-in-law the day after tomorrow. It is the day after tomorrow that my younger brother is going to set off, so we all rushed together.

Sang Zhi smiled and said: I just wanted to do it before my brother-in-law and my younger brother left, otherwise Mutou would not be so anxious.

Sang Ye thought of another thing and asked: Do you know that you are moving to the town from the Huang family?

Sang Zhi had no expression on his face: Yesterday, Mutou and I went back to move things, and the villagers asked about it and thought they knew it.

Sang Ye comforted: It's okay, they dare not make trouble anymore. You can open the door and do business with confidence. If anyone dares to make trouble, you can just fight it out.

Sang Zhi sneered: Last time our family went over and had a big fuss, and the man who started to be scared was already scared and thought they would not dare to make up their minds anymore.

Sang Ye felt that even if someone wanted to, he had to pass Huang Pozi's first, so he felt relieved: Then, your brother-in-law and you work hard to open the store, and your life will be better in the future.

Sang Zhi smiled again on his face, and obviously he saw good days waving: I have to say it, thank you parents, you, your elder brother and the second brother, otherwise I would not have the determination to get rid of the days I used to do.

There will be no good days in the future.

Sang Ye didn't think he had helped: that's why you can stand up, otherwise no matter how hard we try, you can't even thrust like a stone, so what's the use?

Sang Zhi shook his head and smiled bitterly: I used to be stupid and wanted to save face. I was unwilling to tell you all the grievances in the Huang family, otherwise I would not have to suffer the crimes of the children for the past few years.

Mang Ye put down the needle and thread and patted her hand: The past is over, but now isn’t it all right!

This girl is sure to be honest. I'm afraid she doesn't want to worry her family. In the past, the family was not in good condition, and even if she wanted to stand out for her, she would have limited money. She had no money on her own, and she had no money to fight with the Huang family. She couldn't drink the northwest wind.

Later, the family had better conditions and her brothers and sisters lived a good life. She had dividends from the workshop and had 100 acres of land in her hand, so she naturally had the confidence and no longer feared the Huang family.

After all, no matter when a woman has money, she will always be tougher. Just like the female workers in her workshop, no matter how angry they were in her husband's house in the past, she now earns no less than men, and her back becomes hard without realizing it. She no longer has to look at her husband's face. She lives a lot more comfortable life than before.

Sang Zhi looked at Sang Ye and smiled, but his eyes were red: Sister, what I admire most in my life is you, both a woman and a mother. I will never do what you do in my life, and I will not be as free and easy as you.

That year, when my elder sister came back, I knew at first sight that she and I were not from the same place. Standing in front of my elder sister, she couldn't say what she felt, she just wanted to live like the elder sister. Even if the elder sister was a widow who was harboring the burden of others.

Sang Ye couldn't stand her like this, so he raised his hand and touched her forehead and said deliberately: It's not burning, why did he change his temper and start to put on a tall hat on me?

Sister, be serious! All emotions were suddenly dispersed, Sang Zhi stared at her elder sister in anger, but she became disliked when she looked at her.

Oh, that's right. You suddenly said good-heartedly to me. I was not used to it. Sang Ye twisted her face and laughed.

Sangzhi wanted to pounce on her and bite her, but she did, but she didn't bite her and directly scratched her crunching nest.

My feet, my feet are pressed and I am about to break. Mangye's legs are inconvenient to avoid them, and they can't stand being scratched and creaked. I was so anxious that I lifted my sprained foot out.

Sure enough, Sang Zhi was startled and hurriedly got up from her body. Seeing that her ankles were still swollen, she immediately did not dare to mess around again.

Sang Ye no longer teased her. The two sisters rarely sat together and talked a lot.

Sang Zhi was going to the Zheng family in Qianzheng Village and told Yue Niang about the warm-up room to invite a drink. She had to rush back to the town later. She stayed at the Zheng family and left shortly after staying at the Zheng family.

As night fell, Zheng Lin and others did not come back. Sang Ye thought they were going to spend the night in the mountain, and he was more or less worried, so he greeted the trees still awake in the yard and asked them to pay attention.

The trees whispered for a while and soon the news spread.

After coaxing the two little ones to sleep, Sanye couldn't sleep anymore, so he opened the window and chatted with the trees in the yard.

Trees cannot leave the place where they take root. The things they hear, see, feel are limited, and they mostly rely on sharing the experiences of other trees or plants to obtain external information. Those who live for a few years will know more and more things they know, which can be called an encyclopedia, such as the ancient locust tree of the Fang family.

Most of the trees in the Zheng family's yard were planted after the house was repaired. Only a few of them were originally found. They are in their teenage years old and know a lot.

If it is not necessary, mulberry leaves never ask about the private affairs of the villagers. Sometimes the plants chat, but she does not deliberately turn off the perception function. When she accidentally hears their conversation, she knows some secrets of the villagers.

She was also helpless about some very bloody secrets, such as who had hooked up with whom, whose son was not his biological son, etc. After all, she lived in a village, and was more or less uncomfortable when she saw these people.

Fearing that he would know something privately, Sang Ye took the initiative to ask: Are there any good things under our territory? Like antiques, minerals, etc.

Paulownia tree is the first to be: There must be one. The Zheng family has produced a great figure, so how can I not have a good thing?

Mangye's eyes shining: What is it? Where is it hidden?

She only knew that the Zheng family had reproduced here for hundreds of years, but she didn't know that there were great figures from her ancestors. She had never heard anyone talk about it. She thought she had any wishes to make this history deliberately forgotten, otherwise there would always be a few words to pass on.

Another cottonwood tree replied: It was a lot of gold, buried under the Zheng family's ancestral temple, it was impossible for you to dig it out.

No, I was just curious and didn't want to dig it out. Sang Ye quickly explained, showing that he was not greedy.

She didn't think about taking it for herself. And even if she was buried under the ancestral temple, she would never be able to dig it out even if she had thought about it.

Does anyone in the village know that there is gold buried under the ancestral temple? This gold should be the retreat left by the Zheng family by the ancestors of the Zheng family, right? Sang Ye was very curious about the behavior of the ancestors of the Zheng family and wanted to know the story inside.

The Paulownia Tree replied: You guessed it was left to the younger generation by the ancestors of the Zheng family. Unfortunately, only the previous clan leader knew the existence and where the gold was buried. Some clan leader died in the middle and did not have time to tell the successor clan leader, so no one knows about this now. These golds are destined not to see the light of day again.

Mang Ye touched his chin and said: This is not certain. One day, the ancestral temple will be pushed to renovate, so the gold will be dug out.

There were many such things in the previous life. Some families pushed down their ancestral houses and found good things hidden by their ancestors under the ancestral houses or in the walls. There was also a city where they dug out several ancient tombs. In order to protect these ancient tombs, half of the subways have been redirected.

The Zheng family’s ancestral temple has a history of hundreds of years. No matter how well it is maintained, it will always have a day to rebuild. Unless it is not rebuilt on the original site, these golds will definitely be discovered.

At this time, Mang Ye didn't know that what he said casually turned into reality soon, and caused a series of disputes and many ridiculous things.

Yeye, why don’t you also bury some gold for your baby? The cottonwood tree found inspiration and began to instigate mulberry leaves to bury gold: there is no need to buy it, just bury it under my roots, and no one knows how to keep it.

Sang Ye rolled his eyes when he heard this: Unless there is a second person in this world who can understand what you say, it will be impossible for outsiders to know where the gold is buried.

However, the Kapok Tree’s proposal seems to be adopted. Eggs cannot be kept in a basket, right? If something happens at home one day, there is such a piece of gold, it will always be able to hold on for a longer time.

The more I thought about it, the more I became more moved. Mangye felt that it was necessary to save more money and then I would like to bury it in gold. However, where to buy it is a question, and we have to make a good summary.

But soon, Mangye had no time to think about treasure hiding underground, and Zheng Lin and others came back in the middle of the night. They were very lucky, not only carrying back an adult male deer, but also two wild sheep with heavy weight.

It was not easy to go into the mountains to hunt. After driving the prey for several hours, they were tired. They put the prey in the yard, washed a little and went back to their rooms to rest.

Zheng Lin returned to the room lightly and took out a furry object from his arms. When Mangye looked closely, he found that it was a gray little squirrel.

It was said that it was a little squirrel, but I was really pitiful. I didn’t know if the moon was full. I was held in Zheng Lin’s palm and his little body was trembling, obviously very scared.

Why did you bring this thing back? Sang Ye carefully took the little guy and clicked his unique little ears. Seeing that it shrank unconsciously, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

I picked it up under the tree and couldn't run away with hunger. I should have been abandoned by a big squirrel, so I picked it up and kept it for fun for Tangyuan. Zheng Lin had no special love for small animals. If he hadn't been thinking about his daughter who loved furry, he wouldn't have looked at such a fragile little guy.

Tsk, this girl should be so happy. Sang Ye thinks it’s nothing to raise a squirrel. Just such a little guy, without the protection of the squirrel mother, I’m afraid he can’t survive this winter.

I have been raising it since I was a child, and I think I can raise it. It is really good to be with my fat daughter.

Worried that the little guy would freeze to death, Mangye asked Zheng Lin to find a bamboo cage, lay an old cotton coat inside, then put the little squirrel in, and put the cage in the corner. After thinking about it, he grabbed the melon seeds and placed it inside.

After staring at the little squirrel for a while, seeing that it had not peeled its shell and eaten melon seeds, I couldn't help but worry: Is it not going to eat it before weaning? Will it starve to death?

Zheng Lin, who had already taken off his clothes, came over and picked up the person and put it on the bed: It is timid, if you don’t stare at it, you will eat it.

Mangye thought it made sense and decisively blew out the lamp at the head of the bed: Then go to bed and get up tomorrow to see. If it really doesn't work, just see who has a cattle and sheep nearby, and ask for some milk to come back to feed it.

Zheng Lin was really tired and held the person in his arms, his voice a little dumb: Well, if you don’t eat, I will send it to Ergou’s house tomorrow and ask his dog to help her breasts for a while.
