Chapter Ninety-Five: Sowing Gold and Reaping Gold (2)
Yichun said, "Let's not talk about whether this gold is really still there, even if it is, it is not something she can take." After all, she has already written a letter to release her wife, and she has nothing to do with Li Chenghe anymore. Hebi clapped his hands and applauded, "That's right, that's the way it should be!" β
While talking, Xiaoqiu and Jinfu took a few people with shovels and were about to go out, and Hebi hurriedly stopped them and said, "Where are you going?" Xiaoqiu said, "Young Master Yan asked us to go to the Li Mansion and said that there was something to dig out, and he was waiting for us outside!" β
Hearing that Yan Heyi was outside, He Bi trotted to find him to theorize, "Big brother, you don't really want to help the Wu family dig gold, let me tell you, I will definitely not watch you help the abuse!" Yan Heyi was laughed and cried by her, "Am I helping to abuse, you and I'll just go and see if it's okay." β
Thinking that there was black and swarthy everywhere, and one would accidentally stain his new spring coat, He Bi couldn't help but retreat. When Yichun changed into old clothes and passed by her, he said casually, "If you don't go, I'll definitely have a good show!" "I heard that there was a good show to watch, and Hebi couldn't care about any clothes anymore, so he followed them and went to the ruins of the Li Mansion.
Wu and Xiangli stayed there all the time and never left at all. Yan Heyi couldn't help but sneer, it seemed that she really didn't cry when she didn't see the coffinβ people had already come, Wu couldn't wait to say, "It's great that you came, I'll take you in now, that position, I still remember!" β
She led the way in front of her with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and for this familiar place, even if all the houses had been burned beyond recognition, Wu could still instinctively find the location in her memory.
"This is it, next to a willow tree, this is it!" Wu Shi pointed to the half-burned tree trunk next to him, "Here, here, and here, dig down, and you will definitely be able to dig out those jars with gold!" β
While commanding, Wu took the shovel in Xiaoqiu's hand and dug it himself. Yan Heyi hugged his shoulders, without him, no one would help. After digging for a while, Wu felt that his hands and feet were weak, and the pit on the ground was only shallow, and at this speed, he didn't know when he would be able to dig something.
Only then did she realize that the people brought by Yan Heyi didn't make a move, and they stood there one by one, looking at the lively expression. Wu asked, "You, don't you help?" Yan Gongzi, what do they mean by this? β
Yan Heyi said, "Oh, that's the case, they're also tired these days, and they've spent a lot of effort along the way, and they need to take a break." I think it's almost time to stop now, let's do it! β
At the sound of an order, several people started together, and after a while, seven or eight pits more than a foot deep appeared on the ground. The pit continued to dig down, but there was nothing but a layer of charred soil. The cold sweat on Wu's forehead gathered more and more, and she kept saying, "How can this be, how can this be, no, it must be here!" β
He Bi couldn't help but ask, "I said, you can't remember the wrong place and deliberately trick us, right?" If that's the case, big brother, let's go back, staying here will be played as a monkey! Wu hurriedly stopped her and said, "Girl, good girl, maybe it's really my mistake, why don't you try again here?" β
After a whole morning's work, they dug the ground uneven and devastated, and did not find the jar that Wu said. This time, even Xiangli said, "Madam, are you really mistaken, the master didn't bury those jars here?" β
"Impossible!" Wu suddenly let out a terrible roar, which made Xiangli tremble in fright. Wu hurriedly squeezed out a smile, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm so anxious that I scared you, right?" Xiangli shook her head in horror, and suddenly, Jinfu shouted, "I seem to have dug something!" β
Wu Shi followed Yixi on his face, and immediately ran over, squatted down and used his hands to dig the soil. After a while, a pitch-black jar was revealed, and Wu couldn't help but shout, "That's right, that's it, quick, help me get the jar out!" β
Yan Heyi and Yichun looked at each other, but they didn't expect that there was really the jar she said. When Xiaoqiu and Jinfu moved the altar out together and witnessed the miracle, the time was about to come, and Wu opened the altar with trembling hands, hoping to see the glittering gold, but there was nothing in the jar!
"How so, gold, my gold!" Wu's hand touched the jar hard, and she thought to herself, even if there were only a dozen, no, a few gold ingots. But her last hope was also lost, and the jar was indeed empty.
Wu sat on the ground, staring at the sky and speechless. Xiangli stayed by her side and comforted, "Madam, it's okay, even if we don't have that gold, we will definitely be able to live!" Wu pushed her away violently and shouted, "What do you know, without this gold, I'm really finished!" β
At this time, Yan Heyi walked over and turned the jar upside down, and listened to the sound of "dang", something fell down, it was a neatly folded letter without an envelope. Yan Heyi picked it up and unfolded it, only to see that it was written in bright red cinnabar, "Wu, I have transferred the gold to others, you don't want to get it!" β
He held up the letter and showed it to the others, and when Wu saw the words on it, he read it several times before he laughed and smashed the empty jar to pieces! She scolded, "Li Chenghe, you bastard, it turns out that you have been guarding against me for a long time, and you don't even leave me such a little money, you deserve to be killed, you deserve to die in front of me!" β
Yan Heyi watched silently for a long time, and suddenly scolded, "Enough! Wu, you are no longer Li Chenghe's wife, his things can be left to anyone, and naturally they can not be lost to you. Besides, didn't you come back this time and pretend to be pitiful, just to deceive our sympathy, help you cover up your crimes, and get the gold? β
"You, you!" Wu was still stiff-mouthed, Yichun unexpectedly ripped off Wu's collar and said to her, "Your hands and face can be disguised, but in fact, your neck can also be disguised." It's just that you're too troublesome, so you're negligent. But that's why I can expose you, Akira! Yichun screamed, Xiaoqiu got a basin of water out of nowhere, and a "bang" was all splashed on Wu's face.
I saw streaks of brown sewage running down her face, revealing skin as white and delicate as her neck. Xiangli exclaimed, "Madam, you, you're fine!" β
