Chapter 41 has a discovery
"Jinbao, Xiangxiang, you two come over here."
"Mother?"
"Here comes Mother!"
Tang Feng thought about it, and he really couldn't say it too bluntly, in case the child revealed her mouth at home, her father-in-law and mother-in-law might not think of her!
So she said patiently: "You two are still young now, don't interject when adults talk in the future, especially at the dinner table, if you really have something to say, you can also tell your mother first, and it's not too late for your mother to agree with you." ”
Jinbao blinked his eyes twice, and didn't speak for a while, Xiangxiang saw that his brother didn't speak and stood aside to finger him, and the two children looked cute.
"Mother, did Jinbao say the wrong thing at the dinner table today?"
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Tang Feng asked softly, "Why do you think so?" ”
"Because I said something about the third uncle, my grandmother was not happy.
My mother said that she couldn't talk nonsense at the dinner table in the future, and I must have said the wrong thing.
But I'm telling the truth, Jinbao didn't lie! ”
"My mother knew that what Jinbao said was true, and my mother didn't blame Jinbao.
But there are some things that can't be said even if they're true.
Just like your father, he will never tell outsiders that our family has meat to eat every day today, why do you say this? ”
Xiangxiang immediately replied: "Because if you say it, others will want to eat our family's meat, so our family won't be able to eat it." ”
"Xiangxiang is awesome, you're right, let's eat it quietly if there is something delicious, otherwise it will be known by others, and we won't be able to eat Xiangxiang."
Jinbao didn't speak again, tilting his little head thoughtfully, and after a long time, he finally came to a shocking conclusion.
"Mother, if I have something to say, but my father and mother are not around, then who should I talk to?"
Tang Feng didn't tell him the answer directly, but asked rhetorically, "Then who do you think you should talk to?" ”
"Third uncle." He admires the third uncle the most in this family, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken for the third uncle at the dinner table today.
So if there is something, of course, the first thing I think of is to talk to the third uncle.
(Little Jinbao, are you sure it's really appropriate to treat your third uncle as an idol?) )
"But the third uncle is not at home every day, so I guess I still have to talk to the second aunt."
Because the second aunt speaks the most coolly, and she can also carry things, she can't make any big mistakes with her when she has something.
Meng Defu was originally leaning on the quilt to listen to his mother's conversation, but when he heard his son's answer, he immediately sat up, "This child, why don't you want to talk to your grandparents?" ”
Jinbao didn't answer his father's words, but gave his mother a helpless little look and let his mother experience it herself.
Mother's meaning is so obvious, why does Dad still ask such stupid questions?
Because my mother told my grandmother about the third uncle, she let herself talk less, which obviously means that the third uncle's matter can't be told to grandma casually?
As for why grandma?
It's not for nothing that he runs outside every day!
What's your name? Meng Laoshi!
After being honest all his life, he won't come up with anything to tell him, and he still has to talk to his milk.
It's equivalent to, if he knows, grandma will know.
So you can't tell them anything.
The second uncle is as sincere as his grandfather and father, and it's useless to say it, the third aunt is too timid, and the fourth uncle is not timid, but he hasn't started a family yet, let alone the sister-in-law, and he is not a few years older than him, and he is a girl, so who can he tell him that this is not obvious?
Well, in Xiao Jinbao's eyes, his fifteen-year-old aunt is only a little bit older than him, a little man.
Tang Feng was also speechless for his man, it was really hard for him to think of such a weak question.
"The third child and the child's grandmother said, how many dollars did the old couple take?
Jinbao wants to go to school and told his grandma, is it up? ”
Meng Defu: ...... was speechless by his daughter-in-law.
He can't say that the child's mother said the wrong thing, after all, these things are the truth!
The third child got married, and the family didn't give a penny.
Jinbao wants to go to school, but his family still says that he has no money.
He sometimes wonders where all the money in the family is spent, why is there no money every day?
The family hadn't filled a new dress for at least three or four years, and the two children's clothes were changed from adults' clothes, so they didn't have to buy food for food, and there was no place to buy it.
Occasionally, the third child will take some back, and sometimes the fine grain will be sold by Jiaojiao's mother.
To be honest, this big family usually doesn't really have much to spend.
At this time, Xiangxiang also joined in the fun and said: "Xiangxiang wants to eat sugar, and I haven't bought milk."
Xiangxiang wanted a new head rope, so Grandma took my aunt's old head rope to me. ”
Then the room fell silent, Tang Feng only touched the heads of the two children with a relieved face, and then coaxed the two children to go to bed.
On the side of the old house, several rooms of people have rested one after another.
But something happened to Meng Dekui's side.
Digging a cellar in an old house should have been quite laborious, after all, the ground is too porcelain, and there are no modern high-end tools, so you can only rely on pickaxes and shovels to dig a little.
After the two had a simple meal in the evening, Meng Dekui did not delay for a minute and got to work, this man also let Leng Meier enough, she wanted to help the man think he was in the way, she said to go back to the house to sleep, the man preferred her to be his companion in the West House, anyway, it was greasy and crooked, which made Leng Meier lose her temper, so she had to take a candle to accompany him in the West House.
At this time, it was about ten o'clock in the evening, and the ground was also dug out of a pit two feet deep and one meter square, and there was a small mound of soil on the edge of the pit.
"Daughter-in-law, bring the candle closer, I feel like I've found something."
Leng Mei'er immediately brought the candle over, but unfortunately it was covered with floating soil, and she didn't see what was at the bottom of the pit.
By candlelight, Meng Dekui gently scratched the floating soil on the ground with a pickaxe, and first an iron lock was exposed, and under the iron lock was a round iron cover.
It's a bit like the sewer pipes that can be found everywhere on a modern street.
Neither of them spoke, but there was some suspicion in their hearts that there might be something hidden here that they didn't expect.
This iron cover is very heavy, and the iron lock has rusted, but it is not difficult to open this cover, just smash the lock directly, and the left is just a matter of Meng Dekui's two pickaxes.
With two bangs, the iron lock fell in response, and the iron lid seemed to have been integrated with the soil because it had been buried in the ground for too long, and Meng Dekui took the shovel several times without priing it open.
