The old lady's mood eased a little, and she said to Meng Huadong: "Ah, you go and open the stone slab under the locust tree in our yard now, my mother buried a box before, you go and dig it out!" ”

"This ......" Meng Huadong hesitated a little, it was night, but the old lady insisted on going out.

The old lady said that the locust tree is in the corner of the south of the yard, it is a acacia, Meng Yufei heard her father say, it was planted when Meng Yufei's grandfather died, and now it is more than 30 years old.

This locust tree will bloom in May every year, the locust flowers of the tree are as white as snow, and the whole air will be filled with a faint aroma, and the locust flowers can be eaten raw after being picked, and the taste is fragrant and sweet.

Meng Yufei's favorite thing to eat is the acacia cake, the picked acacia flower is washed with water, flour is added, mixed well, salt is added, plus some eggs, mixed well and fried in a pan, the fragrant acacia cake will always attract Meng Yufei's mouth.

Yuan Xiumei went out to help, and Meng Yufei chatted with her grandmother in the house, recalling some stories of being under the locust tree when she was a child, thinking of ways to make her grandmother happy.

"Mom, I dug it out, and it's buried quite deep, right?" After about ten minutes, Meng Huadong walked in with a wooden box. The box looks very average in appearance, with a small lock hanging on it.

"Oh, this key has been lost a long time ago, you go get a hammer and come in and knock the lock open!" The old lady touched the small lock on the box and said to Meng Huadong.

Meng Huadong took the hammer in as he said, and knocked the lock off with a hammer.

The old lady opened the box, and Meng Yufei saw that it was a coarse cloth bag, but she couldn't tell what it was.

After the old lady took it out, she began to solve it, and Meng Yufei found out that there were actually three layers inside and out, and she couldn't help but be more curious about what was inside!

The old lady finally untied the cloth, looking at the contents inside, Meng Yufei's eyes widened, and Meng Huadong looked at each other, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

"Grandma, this can't be gold, right?" Meng Yufei pressed it with her fingers, and there was a hard touch from her fingertips.

The old lady took out the cigarette box-sized item, handed one to Meng Yufei, and then took out the remaining two pieces, handed one each to her son and daughter-in-law, and said:

"It's gold, this gold bar was made when your grandfather was alive before, they all said that gold in troubled times, antiques in the prosperous era, when the house was raided during the special period, your grandfather heard the rumors and secretly hid some, and after the special period, he took out a few trusts to exchange money for the days to be better again, and then your grandfather died and I buried the remaining three!"

Speaking of this, the old lady glanced at Meng Huadong, and then said, "Ah! Don't blame your mother for not taking it out when you opened the company, this is the last thing your father left, and my mother thought that if it wasn't really unbearable, she would still keep it as a thought. ”

"Mom, I know, I don't blame you! Besides, if you don't agree to the loan at that time, you can't get a loan! "The property right of the house is still the old lady's, and at that time, if the old lady did not agree, she could not get a bank loan.

Meng Huadong looked at the thin gold bar in his hand that had lost its luster a little due to oxidation, and did not regard it as money, but only as a relic of his old father.

"It's good that you don't blame me for being a mother, after today's quarrel, my mother also figured it out, and when the house is demolished, it will be all in your name!"

Seeing what Meng Huadong wanted to say, the old lady waved her hand and said, "These three gold bars will be given to you, you can do whatever you want in the future, I will just say a word, it is better to keep it as a last resort!" Alright, take your things back to your house! ”

"Mom, this ...... The eldest brother and the fourth brother ...... over there."

Although it is said to be a relic, after all, it can be used as money, Meng Huadong knows that this is to let the two families know that there is this thing, I am afraid that they will have to quarrel again. ]

"Don't let them know, mom is tired, she has to rest!" The old lady would feel tired after such a toss at night, and waved to her son, wanting to rest.

Meng Huadong took the box back to the study and weighed the same weight of the next three gold bars, all of which were 1,000 grams, and if it was about 70 yuan per gram at the current price, this would be 210,000 yuan!

"Dad, can't you sell this gold bar now?"

Listening to her father talking about the price of gold bars this year, Meng Yufei hurriedly interjected, the price of this thing will increase several times in the next 10 years.

"Don't worry, this is also something left by your grandfather, and we are not in a hurry to use the money now, so we won't sell it!" Meng Huadong rubbed his daughter's hair and said with a smile.

"Dad, then the funds for your company's expansion have been solved?"

Meng Yufei heard from her father a while ago that the company wanted to expand and seize market share as soon as possible, but due to insufficient funds, it could only expand selectively.

"Solved, the last time I went to Beijing, your Uncle Luo knew that I opened a company with your Uncle Xu and lent us a sum of money, I didn't expect that after more than ten years of not seeing, your Uncle Luo would make the company so big!"

Meng Huadong also sighed a little, Luo Hao is relatively low-key, 10 years ago he went to Beijing to do business and saw Luo Hao, although he knew that his family opened a company, but at that time I heard Luo Hao say that it was just a small factory, I didn't expect the time to change so much in the past ten years!

"Dad, our family's Huafeng logistics is not bad, and it won't take ten years to catch up with Uncle Luo's business." Meng Yufei is very confident in her father's logistics company.

Huafeng Logistics is named after one of the names of his father Meng Huadong and Uncle Xu Zhengfeng, which means: Arrive as fast as the wind on the land of China! This is also a company advertising slogan that Meng Yufei helped her father think.

"Well, my dad is also confident that he will make the company a leader in the logistics industry!"

Meng Huadong paused, turned his gaze to the wooden box, and said, "I see, I will go to the bank tomorrow to store this thing, after all, it is not safe to demolish and put it at home." ”

"Okay, you can do it, I'll clean up the table, I'm only halfway through the meal, tell me...... Alas......" Yuan Xiumei sighed.

"Mom, I'll help you!" Seeing that Yuan Xiumei was going out to clean up the table, Meng Yufei hurriedly went out to help.

Meng Yufei never thought of how to tell her grandmother to give the deed to her father, but she didn't expect her sister-in-law to make such a fuss tonight, but it made her grandmother see the intentions of the two sons clearly and fulfilled Meng Yufei's wish.

Lying on the bed, Meng Yufei couldn't help laughing when she thought about what happened at night, not only did the little sister-in-law not achieve the desired goal, but also asked her grandmother to take out the box under the locust tree, no, it should be said that it was a treasure chest.

After the father's accident in the previous life, the high cost of surgery made the mother sad, and then the grandmother took out 200,000 yuan to solve the urgent need, thinking that it was the three gold bars, and then the cost of demolition compensation was also used to pay for the follow-up treatment of the father, and also borrowed some from relatives, so the little aunt would come to divide the family property after the father left, because she felt that the old lady gave all the money to the third son, and she was unwilling to do without their share......

"Hoo ......"

Meng Yufei breathed a sigh of relief, everything has changed in this life, grandma has already said that she wants to give the house to her father, and she must be unwilling to come to the little aunt, and she may not come back to make trouble......

If the little sister-in-law knew that there was such a fuss today, but she asked the old lady to give the last thing to her father, I don't know if she would be so angry that she vomited blood......

Thinking about her thoughts, Meng Yufei closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep......
