Chapter 263: Treasure Hunt

Shen Yan asked Liu Meihong with a smile, "Sister-in-law, what about my third uncle and Xiao Na?"

Liu Meihong replied softly, "It's all out." ”

"Where have they all gone?" Shen Yan poured a cup of hot water for herself, and asked casually.

"I don't know where your third uncle went, but Xiao Na and the others seem to have gone to Baoyuan's house in the county seat, and they may not be back until tomorrow.

Xiaoyan, have you eaten? There is still porridge and yam in the pot, I'll go and heat it. Liu Meihong replied one by one and asked with concern.

"No need, I ate at Yufeng's house. Shen Yan shook her head slightly.

She guessed that Wu Guihua should have taken Ding Baona to the county seat to check her body, and she might find a way to beat the child out.

However, it is not easy to get rid of the lump of meat in Ding Baona's stomach.

Because Ding Baona will get pregnant, it's all the effect of the previous drug.

"Okay, then I'll wash the dishes and feed the pigs first. Liu Meihong smiled at her.

"By the way, sister-in-law, do you have any rice at home, I don't have rice in the school cafeteria, and I have to bring rice to hand it over on Monday." Shen Yan asked.

"I'll take a look. Liu Meihong hurriedly went into the house to see the rice bowl.

She quickly came out of the house and said, "Xiaoyan, there is not much rice at home, and when I finish the family affairs, I will pick a load of rice and go to the processing factory." ”

"Okay, I'll feed the chickens. Shen Yan smiled and thanked her, and helped feed the chickens and clean the yard.

Although Liu Meihong asked her not to do it, it can be seen that she insisted and had to give up.

With her help, Liu Meihong quickly finished the chores at home, and then walked to the warehouse with two baskets.

Liu Meihong took out the key to open the door lock, pointed to the vat and said, "Xiaoyan, there are early rice and japonica rice, which one do you want?"

"It's okay, it's hard work. Shen Yan smiled and nodded.

"Xiaoyan, you are too polite, you saved the people, we don't know how to repay it, it's not right to do such a little thing. Liu Meihong said very seriously.

"Sister-in-law, don't mention this matter again, it's just a gesture.

By the way, did you and your eldest cousin go to the hospital for a check-up, and now the family is not too busy, hurry up and check, and strive to have a child as soon as possible. Shen Yan asked with concern.

At the mention of children, the smile on Liu Meihong's face dimmed.

Thinking of Wu Guihua's heart-piercing words, she couldn't help but reddened her eyes, "The people said last time that they wanted to go to Changqing Hospital to have a look, but your third aunt disagreed, saying that I can't give birth to a child, it's the same wherever I go, don't waste money."

Xiaoyan, why is it so easy to watch other people have children, but so difficult for me?"

Since the poisoning incident of Ding Guomin, Liu Meihong can't help but have trust in Shen Yan.

She had never said these words to others, this was a hidden illness that she couldn't talk about, but she said it so naturally in front of Shen Yan.

When she told others about this kind of thing, she would be worried about being ridiculed, but when she told Shen Yan, she didn't have this worry at all.

Shen Yan can understand Liu Meihong's pain.

Every married woman hopes to be a mother smoothly, not only for the continuation of incense, but also a natural maternal instinct of women.

Liu Meihong is certainly no exception.

The most important thing is that because she didn't have children, she suffered too much of Wu Guihua's bad words, and even fists and feet.

Under such persecution and pressure, Liu Meihong is even more eager to have a child.

Shen Yan sighed lightly and comforted, "Sister-in-law, in fact, you really don't have to blame yourself, I still said the same thing last time, not being able to have children is really not necessarily a woman's responsibility."

Therefore, you and the eldest cousin discuss this matter in private, since the third aunt is unwilling to spend money, you can just go and see it in private.

The eldest cousin has been working for so many years, and he always has more or less some savings, and sometimes it is better to rely on himself than to ask for others. ”

"Yes, Xiaoyan, you have a point. Liu Meihong's eyes lit up, and hope was rekindled in her heart.

Wu Guihua is reluctant to spend money, so they won't spend her money, and when they heal their bodies and successfully give birth to a child, how will she scold?

While the two were talking, Liu Meihong filled the two baskets with rice, and then picked them up with a flat pole.

Shen Yan followed behind her, "Sister-in-law, you slow down, I'll lock the door." ”

"Okay, you can take care of the house. Liu Meihong replied, and quickly carried the rice out of the house.

Shen Yan quickly latched the door, then quickly returned to the warehouse and began to search carefully.

Now she is the only one in the family, and there is a reasonable reason to enter the warehouse, there are not many such opportunities, so you must take advantage of them.

Shen Yan held her breath, squatted down, stomped her feet for a while, and knocked with her hands for a while, looking for it very carefully.

The warehouse is not small, but there are not many places to hide things, so she can only pin her hopes on the possible dark grid and the like.

Since it's a dark grid, of course, it's not so easy to be discovered.

Time passed minute by minute, but her search did not make much progress.

And Liu Meihong and Ding Shi'an may come back at any time, and fine beads of sweat oozed from Shen Yan's forehead and the tip of her nose.

Those treasures were given to his grandfather by his father in private, and it was not something that everyone knew about, Ding Shi'an refused to admit it, and she had no way to force him to hand it over.

So, these treasures can only be found by herself and taken away.

There aren't many opportunities like today, and she has to take them.

An hour passed, and Shen Yan took a closer look at the granary that was suspected to be the largest, and she was disappointed that she didn't find a place like a secret compartment where she could hide things.

The processing plant is not very far from home, and if there is no queue, Liu Meihong should be back soon.

If Liu Meihong found out that she had stayed in the warehouse for so long, she would definitely be suspicious.

Even if she can just find an excuse to fool around, if Liu Meihong tells Ding Shi'an about this, he will definitely be suspicious, and then transfer the treasures, and it will be even more difficult to find them again.

So now she either hastened to find the treasure or hurried out of the barn, and there was almost no time left.

What to do?

Shen Yan wiped the sweat from her face with some discouragement, leaned on one of the large vats, and looked around the entire warehouse again.

Suddenly, her gaze fell on the western wall.

On the west wall was a wooden shelf nailed out of wood the size of an adult's arm, on which an old waterwheel was placed.

The waterwheel is a kind of agricultural tool that draws water for irrigation, and in the era when the water pump is not yet popular, it is one of the indispensable agricultural tools for farmers to grow crops.

This old watermill has a thick layer of dust on it, and it looks like it has been useless for a long time.

Shen Yan remembered that there was a new waterwheel at home, and if she needed to use the waterwheel, she would use that one, since this one was useless, why should she put it there.

With this in her mind, the man had climbed neatly onto the lid of the vat and began to grope in the waterwheel.

When Liu Meihong came back with rice, she found that the door of the house was closed and bolted from the inside.
