Chapter 122: What's in the Box
Cao Qiu asked her mother-in-law to give her the box, otherwise it would be better to open it and see what was inside.
In fact, it was not only Cao Qiu who was curious, but everyone in the room was curious.
The older generation of people thought that the Sun family had nothing valuable, but think about the fact that Sun Jiaming's grandfather could go to the city to get food back for the big guys, what to exchange for or buy food? At that time, food was a very expensive thing, not a good thing, and it definitely couldn't be exchanged.
The younger ones were also curious, wondering what was in the box.
Gu Er also had a faint curiosity in her heart, but she always felt that it shouldn't be valuable.
Grandma Sun looked around, and when she saw Cao Qiu's fiery eyes, she smiled mockingly.
She took out a handkerchief from inside the garment, and when she opened it, there was a key inside.
That's the key to the chest, right?
Cao Qiu's arm stretched, she really wanted to grab it, and then ran away with the box, so that the box was her own.
But let's take a look at what's inside, get the valuable ones first, and keep the worthless ones. With these things, she will be able to live a good life.
Cao Qiu's hala is about to flow down.
The grandmother of the Sun family touched the box with her hand, her face became solemn, and the room was very quiet.
Grandma Sun put the key in the lock, maybe because she was flustered, maybe she was sick for a long time and didn't have the strength, so she didn't open it at once.
"Mom, why don't I come."
Cao Qiu couldn't do it in a hurry.
Grandma Sun didn't answer her, didn't look at her, and turned the key again.
This time the lock was opened, and the grandmother of the Sun family took the lock and opened the lid of the box, and everyone held their breath and looked at the box.
Gu'er's eyes also looked at the box, and the moment the box was opened, she smelled a faint smell, which was not particularly good, and there was an old musty smell.
The box was opened, and the grandmother of the Sun family took out the contents of the house.
The same thing appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and everyone was stunned, including Gu'er.
There are quite a few things in the box.
There is a pair of straw sandals, very worn, very rotten kind, straw sandals are made of Ula grass unique to the northeast, but at first glance it is very old.
There is an old-fashioned pistol, which can no longer be said to be robbed, it is a gun handle, which should have been left by Sun Jiaming's grandfather.
There was a blood-stained garment, the kind worn by the troops, not only stained with blood, but only half of it, and some of it still had traces of being burned by fire, which should have been left over from the battlefield.
Gu Er understood that these things should be the relics of Sun Jiaming's grandfather, and they may have been sent back by the army, or they may have been collected by Sun Jiaming's grandfather.
This thing may not be useful to others, but it has commemorative significance for Sun Jiaming's grandfather.
In addition to these, there is also a book, the book is very old, and it is written in traditional characters, and Gu'er feels a little like a family tree.
In addition, there are a few faded window grilles, which are very delicate and not of much value.
At the end, there were piles of papers, the kind of very rough paper, each with words written on them, and according to the handprints, dozens or hundreds.
Gu Er's heart trembled slightly, these things may be very commemorative for the Sun family, but, but, these things are worthless.
Gu Er looked at Cao Qiu.
Cao Qiu's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, unable to believe what he was seeing.
There were no gold bricks, no gold bars, no gold and silver jewelry as she imagined, not even a piece of jewelry.
What about silver dollars?
Not even a silver dollar.
What are these rags for? Can you get a penny back?
Have you been fooled by this dead old woman?
"Dead old woman, you ......"
Cao Qiu was so angry that she almost vomited blood, and in her anger, she impulsively called her mother-in-law to kill her old woman, and when she noticed that everyone in the room was glaring at her, she knew that she had said what was in her heart.
Cao Qiu is so depressed, she wants to scold, she wants to beat people, she wants to go crazy, why is such a good box full of rags! And what about her? She actually wrote the note, not only let her son stay, but also didn't care about her son's marriage, this old woman tricked her, how could she be willing.
"Ah, my mother, I'm not alive. Is there such a bully? Tethered my son with a bunch of rags, is there such a mother-in-law? But he bullied the dead. ”
Cao Qiu patted his thigh and cried.
"Shut up!"
The third grandfather suddenly snorted.
Cao Qiu was scared, she was horizontal, but many people in the tunzi looked at Sun Jiaming's deceased grandfather and grandfather's face, so they all gave Cao Qiu some face, she had never been particularly angry, if she really angered these old guys, Cao Qiu was also a little scared.
"Zhuzi, if your daughter-in-law dares to talk nonsense again, block her mouth, and send her back to her parents' house, if you can't control it, okay, then you and your daughter-in-law don't go back to Tunzi in the future, we will kick you out when you come back, if you don't listen, come back and beat you once, don't blame me for not giving you face when the time comes."
The third grandfather's face sank like water, and he directly gave an order to Sun Zhuzi. He also spoke harshly.
Sun Zhuzi was a little frightened, nodded, unable to speak.
Cao Qiu gasped, if she was really kicked out, it would not be the same thing as if she didn't come back, so she didn't dare to say anything.
The third grandfather glared at them, and looked at the things on the kang with the other old men.
Sun Jiaming looked at it for a while, picked up a few strips and looked at them, Gu Er also stepped forward to look at the contents of the strips, and she was stunned after reading it.
"Old sister-in-law, this, this?"
The third grandfather asked the grandmother of the Sun family in a trembling voice.
Grandma Sun nodded, her eyes were full of tears, obviously remembering the past.
"Hey."
The third grandfather let out a long sigh.
Grandpa Eight and the others didn't speak, and the room fell silent for a while.
Gu Er understood, these notes were not written by one person, but they were all written to the Sun family, some to Grandpa Sun Jiaming, and some to Grandpa Sun Jiaming.
Most of them are IOUs for borrowing grain, and there are also borrowing money and borrowing things, and the year written to Sun Jiaming's grandfather is about the same, not two years before and after, it should be the previous grandfathers who said that they met the year, and the year when they didn't eat in the tunzi, Sun Jiaming's grandfather finally got back the grain in the city for everyone, and everyone wrote an IOU for Sun Jiaming's grandfather to borrow grain.
There are also IOUs from people in Tunzi who later called Sun Jiaming's grandfather, some borrowed food for those who didn't eat, and some of the children at home or beat people who were sick and had no money to look at and borrow money. If there is a shortage of things to borrow, the year is not the same.
There are so many strips, and the names of the people below are different, some have borrowed once, and some have borrowed twice, so that almost all people in Tunzi should have borrowed it.
