Chapter 5 An Ocean
By the candlelight, the father could see what the girl was holding in her hand. That's a silver dollar, which is commonly known as Yuan Datou, this thing is not uncommon, but a piece of Yuan Datou can be sold for at least fifty or sixty yuan, how can it be exchanged for bag face money, why didn't the second widow Chen think about selling this Yuan Datou for money?
After asking carefully, I realized that the second widow of Chen didn't know what this thing was, this piece of Yuan Datou was picked up by his eldest son Chen Hudan, Chen Hudan was fourteen or fifteen years old, and it was the time to be naughty. A year ago, he went out to set a rabbit, passing by a loess slope, and happened to encounter a yellow skin out of the hole, with something in his mouth, he stomped his foot, and the yellow skin threw down the thing in his mouth and ran away.
Chen Hudan went over to pick it up and took a look, a round big man, with a bald old man painted on one side, and typesetting on the other, he didn't know any words, he just thought this thing was weird and good-looking, and he thought about going back to play with his younger brothers and sisters, so he put it in his pocket and went home.
When my father heard the origin of Yuan Datou, his heart lit up, and he guessed what the loess slope where the yellow skin came out was, and secretly thought: It is really an endless road, and it should also be used by this orphan and widow to make a windfall, send the Buddha to the west, and help them again!
made up his mind, and his father told Widow Chen to put away Yuan Datou, don't let others see it, and don't talk about Yuan Datou to anyone in the future. Seeing that the second widow Chen promised to put away Yuan Datou, his father and the old fat head carried the welding machine and returned to the construction site the same way.
When I returned to the construction site, the old fat man was as tired as a pile of mud, lying on the ground and humming for a long time. My father put the welding machine, lit a cigarette, and squatted at the door of the tool room, not knowing what he was thinking about.
The old fat man snorted for a long time, and when he saw that his father ignored him, he slowly got up and leaned over with a shy straw belly, and asked his father to light a cigarette and speak; "What's that...... Why don't we pack up now, find some leftovers and throw them out of the fence first! The province will have a lot of eyes tomorrow, so that others will see it and gossip! ”
The father glanced at the old fat man, took a cigarette, and then replied: "The waste materials on the construction site are all recycled by special people on time and at designated points. ”
The old fat man knew that what his father said was true, but he had already agreed to Widow Chen, and Widow Chen's family was really pitiful.
"Later, later! It just so happens that there are a lot of leftovers left in the past few days, so let's clean up and hide outside the wall first! With that, the old fat man was about to get up and pick up the scraps.
The father hurriedly stopped the old fat man: "Don't worry about your dog!" Hear me out! In addition to this, I also have a way to make the situation of Widow Chen better, but I don't know if you have the courage to do it with me! ”
When the old fat man heard his father's words, he was not happy: "I said Lao Wang, I don't like to hear what you say brother!" We two have worked together for so many years! You don't know who I am fat, you don't know? That has to be put aside, the black whirlwind in the single eight generals is Lao Tzu! If there is nothing else on the body, just grow a guts! You said! No matter what the way! I can help Widow Chen! I don't have to say! Dry! ”
When my father heard this, he laughed in his heart: Your dog's fat head is like Li Kui! Thinking so in his heart, he said, "Okay! Fat head! Say that to you! Brother, I'll talk to you...... The big head of Widow Chen's house saw it! ”
"See!" The old fat head replied: "I also took it and blew it and listened to it, the real ocean!" How? Lao Wang ...... Your way is to sell that Yuan Datou? That thing is too recent, and that one can't be sold for a few bucks!! ”
The father glared at the old fat man angrily and scolded: "You are in a hurry!" Listen to me! Didn't Yuan Datou get it from the mouth of the yellow skin by the second widow Chen? This thing has demonic nature! In my hometown, I used to hear about the yellow skin turning into a woman and seducing a single husband in gold and silver. Where did this gold and silver jewelry come from? It was all a burial object dug out of the grave by a yellow skin. Chen Hudan's doll said that he saw the yellow skin from the loess mound out of the Yuan Datou, I pondered that the loess mound is a grave pile, in which there is a landlord's old wealth, look at this I am afraid that no one has taken it out, let's dig up the dog day in the past, good things are indispensable! ”
When the old fat man heard that he was going to dig a grave, his mouth was crooked, and his head shook like a drum: "Lao Wang, Lao Wang!" I've heard that you have a bear's heart and a leopard gall! The courage is also great! Do you dare to dig up other people's ancestral graves? Don't talk about this lack of morality! Catch that and you're going to get into the game! No, no, no! This is a bad deal! ”
When my father saw that the old fat man was cowardly, he was angry, but it was indeed a bit weak to do this alone, so he had to persuade him: "I estimate that the landlord's grave is definitely not nearby, or let people dig it early, let's be careful, others can't find it, and I really dig up good things for money." Not only can we help Chen's second widow, but can't we also get some benefits? Again! You knocked on your widow's door just now, and you are not virtuous enough! ”
When the old fat man heard this, he couldn't help but be a little tempted, these days his daughter-in-law, that is, Qu Zhifeng's mother, is talking in the old fat man's ear all day long, what Wang's fifth daughter-in-law bought a gold ring! Zhao Siniang hit the right gold earrings! It's a cowardice that she hasn't had since she followed a fart. You can't enjoy the slightest blessing. The old fat man heard several layers of calluses in his ears. He thought that if he really dug up good things, he would also buy some gold goods for the tigress at home, and the old lady in the province would look down on him!
The old fat man pondered again, digging a grave in the wilderness, moving neatly, digging and leaving, God didn't know it, no one would know the way, Chen Er's widow knocked on the door herself, and it was not bad to dig other people's ancestral graves, and besides, he was also to help the orphans and widows, it was a matter of accumulating virtue! Thinking about it, the old fat man was ruthless at the moment: beg him! Done!
The idea is made. The old fat man is shy and has a belly. Awe-inspiring said: "Lao Wang! You can't do this alone! What I'm talking about is righteousness, I can't watch you make difficult and risky alone, don't say anything. Let's go and dig out the landlord's old fortune now! "I'm going to the guy on the road.
The father fooled the old fat man into the thief ship, and before he could be happy, he saw that the old fat man was guilty again. The father had no choice but to reach out and stop the old fat man: "I can't do it now, let's sum it up again." ”
The old fat man was anxious when he heard this: "I said! It's you who wants to dig it, and it's you who doesn't let you do it! Hurry up and don't rush late! Want me to say! Let's do it as soon as possible! Lest the long nights and dreams let others take the lead! ”
Father snorted and said, "When can you change your reckless character?" Go now? Do you know where that place is? How far away? How much time does it take to go back and forth? What should I do if no one looks at the construction site and loses something? What tools do we need? What to do with what is dug up? ”
Only then did the old fat man react, as if the two of them really didn't know where the landlord's grave was! You can't just dig up a dirt bag!
Seeing that the old fat man snorted, he smiled and sat down again. The father continued: "This is not in a hurry in advance, the grave pile can't run in place, let's first pack up those scrap copper and rotten iron in the next few days and let the second widow Chen take it, and in a few days, find a reason to ask the leader for a leave, and let Chen Hudan lead us over." But ......"
The father paused, and then said, "You kid have to put a door on your mouth, don't be blind to others!" ”
The old fat man patted his chest again when he heard this: "Lao Wang! You still don't know me! Am I the kind of person who is blind to Bibi? ”
My father thought to himself, "I know too much." If not too big! I really want to put your dog's leash on the belt......
