Chapter 15: The Cellar

"Hmm!"

Su Wanniang threw herself forward, but her first emergency response was to land in a kneeling position, holding the ground with her hands.

And when she pounced, it seemed like she had kicked something. Then there was a tingling pain on the palm of her right hand, and she snorted in pain.

"Mother, what's wrong with you? cough cough cough cough ......"

Xu Junhao heard the movement inside, and shouted outside anxiously, and the little guy coughed violently.

In the dark, Su Wanniang immediately got up, and the pain in her palm made her face change.

Fortunately, the fire fold on her left hand was not lost, Su Wanniang blew the fire fold, and said to it: "Mother is fine, you stay on it obediently!" Sit on a stool and bask in the sun, and my mother will come up later. ”

After saying a few words to stabilize the child, Su Wanniang rubbed her kneeling knees.

She lowered her head and shone it with a fire fold, and it was dark all around, and the place was not big. She seemed to have kicked something, so she made a noise and kicked something to pieces.

Su Wanniang took a fire fold and shone it on the ground, on the ground, a broken jar, and there were some fragments near where she was standing. The pain in my hand, I don't know if it was ground by splinters or gravel, it seems to be bleeding.

It was too dark here, Su Wanniang turned around and walked up, planning to clean the wound, and then took the oil lamp down.

I don't know if it's a cellar or something, and there's nothing but a dull, damp musty smell.

Xu Junhao saw Su Wanniang coming up, and hurriedly stood up and ran over: "Mother! The little guy seemed to be very worried, and hugged Su Wanniang's legs.

Seeing that the child was so sticky to herself, Su Wanniang smiled: "Okay, my mother just wants to see if it can be used in the cellar, and when it is cold, ......" Before the words were finished, Su Wanniang suddenly paused.

Only then did she realize that something was wrong.

Yes, this is the South, who will go to make a cellar!

Cellars are generally used in the north to store food.

Su Wanniang paused, then pulled the child away, and said to the child: "Go, go with your mother to get the oil lamp, and later, your mother will take you down with you." "There's no danger in there, I've already learned about it once I've gone down, there's no strange smell or stuff, and the fire won't be extinguished in it.

When she washed her hands, Su Wanniang realized that her palm had been cut open by something she didn't know. Because the mouth is not big, Su Wanniang did not deliberately bandage it.

took the oil lamp, Su Wanniang carried the child down to the cellar, then put the child on the ground and lit the oil lamp with a fire fold.

Illuminated by oil lamps, the surroundings immediately lit up.

It's still a little dark, but you're already able to see the whole inside.

There were some messy footprints on the ground, but because no one had been in or out, the footprints were all left. In addition, in the small cellar, there are many jars and jars. In the corner, there were also things in sacks, piled together.

This is indeed a cellar, but Su Wanniang always feels that there seems to be something wrong with this cellar.

Here, it should have been searched by the people of the yamen, otherwise it wouldn't be so messy.

The ground was littered, and several things were damaged. Many of the jars were opened, but the sacks on the side were not removed.

Su Wanniang took the child's hand and stepped forward to let him play by himself, while she took a closer look at this and that. But he didn't reach out and touch it.

There is nothing special about this cellar either.

But in a southern town, why would this family dig a cellar?

Just as she was thinking about it, Su Wanniang heard a very crisp knocking sound: "Ding-dong......"

Turning his head to look, I don't know when, Xu Junhao squatted on the ground and played, holding the previously broken pottery shard in his hand, knocking on the ground.

"Don't move that, you'll get your hands on it."

Su Wanniang approached a little nervously, and hurriedly took the pottery shard in the child's hand. She didn't react at all, and she had already begun to adapt to this new identity in just one night.

The little guy looked at his mother innocently, and really didn't understand what the danger was.

Looking at the child's appearance, Su Wanniang sighed in her heart, took the pottery shard and knocked on the ground: "See, your hand will be scratched in these places, and it will hurt when the time comes!" ”

'Jingle ......'

There was a crisp sound, Su Wanniang paused slightly, reached out and tapped elsewhere, and found that the sound was a little different.

She pulled her foot on the ground a few times, and the dry soil on the ground was removed, and on the ground, an iron plate was exposed.

For some reason, Su Wanniang's heart tightened.

This family seems to be really good at hiding things, how is this pile, it's like doing a mechanism.

Su Wanniang looked at the child and saw Xu Junhao staring at her with wide eyes, looking curious. She cheered up and had the courage to scrape the ground with a pottery shard.

After a while, all the pieces of iron were exposed.

knocked on it, Su Wanniang planned to take out the iron piece, but found that it was actually an iron box.

There is no lock on the iron box, it is square.

Su Wanniang sandwiched the one-foot-long-width iron box that was not too heavy under her armpit, hugged the child, blew the oil lamp, and walked up quickly.

Back in the backyard garden, Su Wanniang threw the iron box on the ground.

"Mother, what is this?"

Xu Junhao is a little curious, what has happened recently seems to be very fresh, and his mother can always find some strange and interesting things. Like this black hole, or like this strange box in front of you.

Su Wanniang didn't know, shook her head, and held a bamboo pole far away to poke open the lid of the iron box.

The box opened, and it wasn't as dangerous as she thought.

Also, this is not a place where martial arts exist, where are there any hidden weapons or poisonous smoke or the like.

Feeling that she was replenishing her brain too much, Su Wanniang breathed a sigh of relief, and walked over to see that there were a few fluttering pieces of paper on the inside of the iron box.

She picked up a dead branch and picked it gently, and a few pieces of paper immediately scattered outside.

A piece of paper just went up, and Su Wanniang recognized that thing at a glance, because it read: Deed!

I didn't expect that the owner of this family would really hide things and deliberately dig a cellar to store the deed?

On the other pieces of paper, there are land deeds and shops, but in Su Wanniang's opinion, these are useless things. After all, all the things of the owner of this house are already considered to belong to the yamen, and it is estimated that the yamen has already checked the details, so the land deed shop or something has been moved to the name of the official family!

Reluctantly picked up some of the paper on it, Su Wanniang saw that there was a box under the paper.

The box carving is very beautiful, whether it is the workmanship or the materials, you can know at a glance that it is not an ordinary wooden box.

The flowers bloom rich and noble patterns, and at a glance you know that they are used by rich and noble people, which is pleasing and expensive.

Su Wanniang picked for a long time before opening the small wooden box. The things contained in the wooden box, just one glance, had already made Su Wanniang's eyes widen.

Forgive her, she has no concept of gold and silver, and it was not such a real thing that was used in the past! The tickets are so different from the silver.

Even if I got some memories from my predecessor, I had very few of them. There is not a lot of information, and it is not enough for her to understand.
