Chapter 51: The Poor Ghost Turns Over
The clouds were thick, the wind was blowing, the rain was pouring all night, when the sky was just bright, the rain finally stopped, Gai Sha Dad and Gai Sha Niang were carrying broken oil paper on their heads, and Gai Sha Niang was hungry and cold in his arms, and his stomach was purring, and the hungry two people did not close their eyes all night.
"I said cover his father, this day is also bright, the rain has stopped, you go out and see, whose field has fallen vegetable roots or something, I am now hungry in front of my eyes, and my head is a little dizzy. As she spoke, the mother-in-law wiped the sweat from her sallow face with her hands.
Here he picked up a broken wooden stick leaning against the wall, and went out of the house with a choking head, hungry and unwilling to speak.
Why don't you take a pickaxe? Poor, no.
The barefoot girl dripped the cold rain and came to someone else's field after harvesting the crops, why didn't she wear shoes?
At home, I picked up a pair of old shoes that people didn't want, and my mother-in-law was afraid of catching a cold during confinement, so I pulled this for my mother-in-law.
It had rained heavily all night, and the fields were full of water, and nothing could be seen except water and mist.
It was not easy to find a piece of high ground that had not been flooded by the rain.
He picked up the stick in his hand and pouted it into the ground.
Hey, what's going on underground, a stick is pouted down, and the underground makes a crisp sound.
Cover threw away the stick in his hand, bent down and pulled the dirt from the ground with his hands.
A sealed jar peeked out of the ground.
Daddy Gasha reached out and pulled the soil around the jar a few more times, and picked up the jar under the ground with both hands.
Oh my mother, what is it here, why is it so heavy? The pressed cover almost threw away the jar in his hand.
When the jar was put anew on the ground, he even used the strength to eat milk with his hands and teeth, and then he opened the seal on the jar.
When I looked into the jar, I saw that there was a whole jar full of copper coins......
With green light in his eyes, Gai Sha Dad reached out and pulled the copper coin in the jar, and felt the hard under the copper coin at the tentacle, and reached down with his hand, the golden light was shining, and he took out a fist-sized gold ingot.
Oh my God! Daddy Gaisha has never seen this money in his life, even if he has never seen it.
The two clay hands rubbed a few more handfuls on their clothes and pants, and pinched the flesh of their thighs that were clinging to the bones, and their teeth ached.
His eyes widened, his teeth clenched, and he reached out and touched the inside of the jar fiercely.
One, two......
I found five more big gold ingots, plus the previous one, my mother, six big gold ingots......
Six gold ingots and a bunch of copper coins were piled up in front of him, and the guy who covered his father was dancing happily, and he sat on the ground with a squat.
Under the unkempt hair, the two eyes emitted a terrifying green light, as if he was like a strong man who had been squatting in prison for ten years, and just after being released, a delicate and beautiful girl appeared in front of him.
I'm going to......
Under the greedy eyes, he stretched out a pair of black hands as thin as chicken paws, quickly grabbed the two gold ingots, opened his mouth and bit them viciously.
Three, four, five, six, one by one, Gai Sha's father rolled on the ground like a madman, stood up suddenly, and shouted at the sky: Lao Tzu is rich, Lao Tzu is rich, mother-in-law, we are rich, we can also eat meat......
Lao Tzu is rich, Lao Tzu is ~ ......
Gai Shad's father subconsciously covered his mouth, slumped left and right, and made sure that there was no one around, so he put his hand around his face again, bent down and picked up the jar on the ground and ran two steps, and his footsteps stopped again.
He put the jar in his hand on the ground anew, pressed a few handfuls of grass to the mouth of the jar, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and then smeared some mud around the jar.
In the second time, he picked up the altar, straightened his waist, and disappeared with a swish, and he didn't even want the ancestral treasure stick that had followed him for many years.
When Gai Sha's father returned to the broken brick kiln, the mother-in-law was already leaning against the corner of the wall with her hungry body, her body was trembling, her head was drooping, and her eyes were closed.
The son covered the cover very happily, lying on a tattered cotton wool, not crying or making trouble, staring at a pair of big eyes to look left and right, as if full of curiosity about this new home.
Mother-in-law, we have made a fortune, we have made a fortune! Daddy Gaisha yelled again......
The mother-in-law opened her eyes lazily, didn't even raise her head, and said wistfully: "What kind of wealth? I'm about to starve to death, poor ghost, have you dug up vegetable roots?" ”
Haha, mother-in-law, look at what this is, Gai Sha's father took off the grass on the altar and put the jar containing copper coins and ingots in front of his mother-in-law's eyes.
When the mother-in-law saw the jar in front of her, she was planted crooked on the wall, and suddenly sat up straight, her dry fingers seemed to grab a handful of copper coins in the jar, and she took a deep breath, put the copper coins under her nose and sniffed them heavily, and only shouted after a while!
It is the taste of the copper coin......
Gai Sha Dad took out the six gold ingots buried under the copper coin and put them in front of the mother-in-law, with a smug look on his face.
When the mother-in-law saw the ingots in front of her, her two eyes emitted a terrifying green light like Gai Sha's father, even greener than Gai Sha's father, and quickly picked up the ingots and put them to her mouth, took a vicious bite, and reviewed her husband's actions just now.
Only then did he look up at his husband, who was like a mud monkey all over his body, and his unkempt hair was still dripping with muddy water, and said very calmly: "Husband, where did you steal these belongings?"
Although our family was very poor, our ancestors were people of status.
We must not do anything like a rooster and a dog thief, and ruin the reputation of our ancestors......
Daddy, leave three gold ingots and half a copper coin, and send the rest back to others as soon as possible......
Hahaha~
Mother-in-law, these ingots and copper coins are ......
Ahh
Oh, no, husband, you touch it, why is my heart beating so hard.
Come on, come on, husband, quickly help me, I want to touch our family's big, big ingots......
Mother-in-law, you are lying down for a while, what you said makes sense, and you are really hungry if you talk too much.
Let's take our gold ingot treasure first, and I'll take some copper coins to buy some food first.
As soon as he turned around and walked out of the house, he came back in a blink of an eye, and knelt down at him.
No, God of Wealth, from now on you will be my father, my lord......
After going back and forth for a long time, Gai Sha's father took the gold ingots far away from home and exchanged them for copper coins little by little, slowly purchased a house, and also had his own small courtyard.
By the time Gaisha was in his teens, the Liu family had a reputation for being rich in this area.
When the crops are dry and need rain, as long as there is a small cloud, they have to go to the next field.
During the autumn harvest, his family planted something that was in short supply and made money.
If you want to eat fish, after a burst of rain, there are a few carp jumping around on the ground in the yard.
If you want to eat meat, some pheasant or hare will hit your head and die on the wall outside his yard from time to time.
As long as you say that tomorrow you will go to the street to buy a few clothes to wear, the next morning, after a whirlwind, there will be a few clothes hanging on the clothesline in the yard.
When he was fifteen or sixteen years old, the fortune of the Liu family was almost against the sky, and he could dig out a gold ingot when he went to the thatched house to pee, and when he came back from the street, he could pick up a hundred and eighty yuan.
If he didn't pick up the money when he came back from the street one day, he would be sad for days, as if he had lost something valuable.
A few years later, within a radius of hundreds of miles, some people may not know about the Liu family, but when it comes to building a rich man's house, everyone knows about it, and everyone knows about it......
