Dog days are hot, and it's dark late, and many families don't want to light oil lamps until they can't see anything until it's dark.

At the home of Lao Zheng Tou in the west of Mengjiang Village, he lit an oil lamp early.

The wick was bright, and two people sat next to the oil lamp, whispering to each other.

"Wen Jing, you can see the truth, what is the new Zhou here....." It was Lao Zheng Tou's daughter-in-law who spoke.

Zhou Niannian. Li Wenjing reminded in a low voice.

Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law nodded: "Yes, yes, Zhou Niannian, that's the name, if you want to say that the people in this city have a name, it's not a good idea, Niannian, this name is not as good as the name of our family Chunsheng." ”

Chunsheng is the son of Lao Zheng and his son.

"Cough, cough, cough. Two dry coughs sounded in the corner," said the point. ”

Lao Zheng frowned and looked at his mother-in-law with a displeased face, no culture is no culture, and he said that things can never grasp the point.

Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law shrunk her neck, leaned forward, and then asked with her eyebrows: "You said that Zhou Niannian really brought a lot of gold and silver jewelry and money?"

Li Wenjing nodded firmly: "Godmother, I really see it." ”

As she spoke, her eyes radiated a bright light, and she leaned forward subconsciously, and said in a low voice: "I saw a pair of gold bracelets, two silver bracelets, and earrings or something, and a pile of money, although I didn't count, but it looks like there must be one or two hundred." ”

Knock, Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law couldn't help but swallow her saliva: "One or two hundred, and gold bracelets, silver bracelets, my good girl, this, she is a little girl, how dare she bring so much money?"

"Tut, the officials in this capital are rich. ”

Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law finished talking, her eyes brightened, I am obedient, she has never seen so much money in her life.

If this quiet girl's strategy works, won't these things become hers in the future?

As soon as she thought of this, Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law's heart was about to burst out.

With this money, their family will not have to worry about food and clothing in the future.

"Chunsheng and his father, you can also talk. Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law looked at Lao Zheng expectantly.

Their family is Lao Zheng's final say, don't look at her loud voice on weekdays, and the old man has to make up her mind at critical moments, she doesn't dare to take the idea without permission.

Lao Zheng gently sipped the dry tobacco in his hand, put it under his fat nose and sniffed it gently, and then said: "The little girl's family, it is not easy to come from the capital to this unfamiliar place, but if you want to eat a hot meal, we can help wherever we can." ”

With that, he put his hands behind his back and slowly went into the back room.

Li Wenjing glanced at his fat back and couldn't help but pout secretly.

It has been almost two years since she came to the Mengjiang Brigade, and she has already figured out the character and thoughts of Lao Zheng and his wife.

Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law is greedy and timid, Lao Zheng is stingy and hypocritical, but she still has a kind and enthusiastic hypocritical face.

For example, at this moment, after hearing her say Zhou Niannian's belongings, I am afraid that Lao Zheng and his wife are more and more heart-warming than the other, but they are still hypocritically saying that it is not easy for Zhou Niannian to be a little girl.

Lao Zheng's daughter-in-law saw that her family owner agreed, so she hurriedly took Li Wenjing's hand and said: "Then it's decided, Wenjing, you get off work for half an hour every night, and then help that Zhou Niannian go to the canteen to eat." ”

Zhou Niannian in the dormitory was stunned for a while, got up and began to clean up her belongings.

There was a small dilapidated wooden cabinet behind the bed where she slept, with a small lock hanging on it, Zhou Niannian plugged the door from the inside, then took out a key from her body, opened the lock, and took out a small duffel bag from the cabinet.

When I opened the gift bag, there was a small wooden box five or six inches in size, there was no lock on the box, and it was opened with a light click.

There were five or six gold and silver jewelry scattered in the box, as well as a thick pile of money tickets, probably hastily stuffed in, and the money tickets were a little scattered.

Zhou Niannian's eyes were slightly red, and he poured everything on the bed, wiped his tears, and began to tidy up.

Something happened suddenly at home, and in the morning it was announced that he would dismiss his parents from all their posts and go to the countryside to go to the countryside for labor reform.

These things were put in a very secret place by her mother, so that they were not turned over, and before her parents were sent to the countryside, her mother hurriedly stuffed the things into her bag.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhou Niannian couldn't help but shed tears.

Her parents have pampered her since she was a child, and even at such a critical juncture, her parents, her two older brothers, and she had to go to the countryside to undergo transformation, her parents still did not hesitate to give her the only thing left in the family.

"Your brother is a boy, it doesn't matter if you suffer a little, you have been pampered since you were a child, and with these things, you can suffer less when you go to the countryside. This is when she was leaving, her mother hugged her and whispered.

Zhou Niannian closed her eyes, a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, her mother only thought that having these things could make her suffer less, but she didn't expect that she had no ability to protect these things at all.

No, my mother must also know that with her simple and innocent nature, she will definitely not be able to protect these things.

It's just that if she didn't have these things, she would definitely suffer a lot when she went to the countryside, and with these things, she might be able to protect her for some time.

That's why my mother chose the latter, this is her parents, who have always taken care of her from childhood to adulthood, even though they know that she is not their biological daughter at all, but they still love her unreservedly.

In her previous life, Li Wenjing saw her money and money, so she moved her mind, and united with Lao Zheng to cheat her jewelry and money a lot bit by bit, and by the time she realized that something was wrong, it was too late.

It is precisely because of this incident that many things have happened.

Since God has reborn her, the first thing she has to do is to protect her money, and no one who belongs to her wants to take it.

Zhou Niannian counted the money, a total of four hundred and fifty-two yuan and two cents, sixteen tickets, all of which were some unused food stamps at home, cloth stamps and other things.

And then there is a pair of gold bracelets, a small gold doll, about the size of a little finger, the doll's smile is cute and cute, it looks very pleasing, Zhou Niannian couldn't help but rub it, she didn't remember that her mother had beaten such a golden doll.

There are also two pairs of silver bracelets and two pairs of silver rings.

She took out fifty-two taels, left five more cloth tickets, and put them in a handkerchief, and packed up the rest and put them in a wooden box.

The wooden box can no longer be placed in the dormitory, the dilapidated cabinet in the dormitory, the lock that can be opened when you pull it is really unsafe, not to mention Li Wenjing's fierce staring, you must find a safe place to put the wooden box.

But where is it better to hide? Zhou Niannian looked at the simple dormitory where everything could be seen clearly, and was worried for a while.
