Su Meng quickly finished eating, sent the bowl to the kitchen, and found Chen Xiuhua washing the dishes.

Chen Xiuhua didn't raise his head: "Bring the bowl." ”

Su Meng took the bowl over, Chen Xiuhua immediately took it, then pulled a handful of straw and wiped the bowl.

Because there was no dish soap at home, she was reluctant to boil hot water, so she first wiped off the oil in the bowl with straw, and then washed it with cold water.

Su Meng stretched out her finger and lightly touched the water in the basin, and it was really cold.

Such cold water is used to wash dishes, even wearing dishwashing gloves can't stand it.

What's more, Chen Xiuhua didn't even wear gloves - there was no such thing at home.

Su Meng thought of Chen Xiuhua's hand later, and couldn't help but say: "Let's go to the street after you wash it, there are many things at home." ”

In fact, she wanted to move back to her grandparents' house directly, but unfortunately she couldn't.

They had to take the train to get back, and they didn't have the money to buy tickets.

What's more, life at my grandparents' house is not easy.

They're not popular over there either.

Even if you want to go back, you have to make money first.

Although Baoshan Village is remote, it is close to the mountain.

There are always some mountain goods in the mountains, as long as you are diligent and pick the mountain goods and send them to the city to sell, you can always make money.

Su Meng pondered a plan to make money, and seeing that Chen Xiuhua was working hard alone, she wanted to help.

As a result, as soon as he picked up the bowl, he was snatched by Chen Xiuhua.

"Get out of here, don't get in the way."

After saying that, he pushed her.

Su Meng took a look and found that there were not many bowls, so she didn't insist.

But she didn't leave, but asked tentatively, "Mom, do you have a black jade gourd there?" ”

Chen Xiuhua looked dazed: "What black jade gourd?" ”

That look, obviously, didn't even know what the black jade gourd was.

Su Meng was disappointed, was that black jade gourd really picked up by Chen Xiuhua?

But she still didn't give up and asked, "That's it...... It's a black, gourd-like pendant with a red string hanging on it, do you have any impressions? ”

I thought it was useless, but who knows, after Chen Xiuhua heard this, his face suddenly changed.

She stared at Su Meng, as if she was wary of something: "How do you know?" ”

Su Meng looked at her in shock, her mind in a mess.

She thought that the black jade gourd was picked up by Chen Xiuhua later, didn't it?

And looking at Chen Xiuhua's reaction, that black jade gourd seems to have an unusual origin.

How so?

According to her memory, Chen Xiuhua has basically not gone out to work until now.

Except for the time when she was in the market, she stayed in the village.

How did you get that black jade gourd?

Chen Xiuhua's expression was too serious, and Su Meng had no choice but to lie: "I...... I saw it one day. ”

It can't be said that she is born again.

Chen Xiuhua frowned, but she didn't doubt it.

She retracted her eyes, looked at the bowl in her hand, and said while washing: "I saw it, I saw it, it's just an ordinary gadget, and it's not a treasure, what do you care about it?" ”

Su Meng couldn't tell why, but always felt that Chen Xiuhua was deliberately evading.

It doesn't seem to be a part of the conversation about the black jade gourd.

It's even weirder.

What's so weird about that black jade gourd?

Is it necessary for Chen Xiuhua to be so nervous?

Thinking of his strange rebirth, Su Meng still said: "I use it, can you find it for me?" ”

Who knew that as soon as Chen Xiuhua heard this, she suddenly became excited: "It's just a gadget, what's the use of using it?" What exactly do you want to do? I know all day long! ”

The irritable roar made Su Meng couldn't help frowning and remembered some bad things.

Chen Xiuhua is always like this.

Sometimes it's not bad for her.

But sometimes, like a hedgehog, covered in thorns, he refuses to speak well at all.

And many times the attacks come out without warning.

Su Meng didn't want to quarrel with her, but she was too curious.

That black jade gourd is too mysterious!

Her magical ability only appeared after wearing the black jade gourd.

It was by virtue of that ability that she made a lot of money.

She was killed and reborn back to the age of nine, all related to the Moyu gourd.

and Chen Xiuhua's strange attitude, how can she not care?

And she is a bit obsessive-compulsive, once she has a doubt, she must find out the bottom of it.

Otherwise, you will feel uncomfortable.

The more Chen Xiuhua didn't say it, the more curious she became.

Su Meng couldn't help but retort: "That's a gadget, why can't you show it to me?" ”

Chen Xiuhua was even more irritable: "Anyway, I'm not available!" Look for yourself. ”

Su Meng turned around and left.

Find it yourself, find it yourself!

The black jade gourd is likely related to her rebirth, and she must find out how to find out!

Chen Xiuhua thought that Su Meng had given up, so she didn't care.

Su Meng secretly went to Chen Xiuhua's bedroom and began to rummage.

This room looked similar to hers, it was all the same dilapidated, not to mention the wooden floors and floor tiles, and even the cement was absent, only a layer of hard yellow mud.

Su Meng glanced at it and saw a large suitcase on the wardrobe, and immediately recognized that the box was Chen Xiuhua's dowry.

And it is also a dowry at the time of the first marriage.

Because Su Wenqiang was so poor, his grandfather didn't look down on him at all, and it was Chen Xiuhua who married her despite the family's opposition.

So when I got married, I didn't say anything about the dowry, but even the bowl that I had been married to was asked back by my grandfather.

This suitcase is Chen Xiuhua's treasure, but anything she thinks is valuable will be put in it.

However, Su Meng was depressed as soon as she climbed up.

The box is locked, and it can't be opened at all!

Locked so tightly, that black jade gourd must be in it.

The key must be in Chen Xiuhua's hands, the question is, how can she get the key?

Ask Chen Xiuhua directly?

Definitely not.

Chen Xiuhua was so excited at that time that she would definitely not give her the key.

So what to do?

That's right!

Chen Xiuhua generally doesn't like to carry the key with her, if she looks for it, she may be able to find it!

Su Meng immediately got off the stool and rummaged in the room.

It won't be long before Chen Xiuhua washes the dishes and washes the pots, she has to move quickly, otherwise she should come back.

By the way, where does Chen Xiuhua usually like to put the key?

She'll have to think about it.

Well...... It seems to be ......

That's right!

She remembered.

Su Meng quickly ran to the side of the bed, lifted the pillow to take a look, and sure enough, found a bunch of keys under the pillow.

She looked and saw a small key in it, which matched the small lock on the chest, and guessed that it was.

So I ran back to the closet, stepped on the stool, tried the key, and sure enough, it was right.

With a "click", the small lock opened.

Su Meng gently opened the box and stretched out her arms to rummage inside.
