Chapter 12: A Treasure Found by Chance

Gorou automatically took the basket in Lin Wan'er's hand and gave her a free hand to open the door.

"Sister, this is the copper money exchanged for wild things this time, three hundred yuan for hares, two hundred yuan for pheasants, a total of five hundred yuan, a total of one hundred and two yuan for buying daily necessities and condiments in the market, and three hundred and ninety-eight yuan left, all of which will be handed over to you to put away." As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, Gorou handed Lin Wan'er a small cloth papa, which contained the copper plate he earned from going to the market this time.

Lin Wan'er is the only woman in this family, and the burden of managing the daily living expenses of the whole family naturally falls on her, after all, the girl's family is more budget-conscious, and Gorou subconsciously wants to cultivate her

Lin Wan'er took out the black clay pot at the root of the corner of the house, and put all the copper coins earned this time into it, plus the fifty yuan left after selling hairpins and catching medicine last time, and now there are four hundred and forty-eight yuan left at home, although the remaining money is still not much, but the life is finally not so sad, and with more oil, there will be hope for this hard life.

Gorou was chopping wood at the door, Rokuro and Xiaoqi were squatting there to pick up camelina, and Lin Wan'er was holding a feather duster made of pheasant feathers, cleaning up at home, cleaning up the dust and cobwebs on the stove, and the appearance of this place in the cooking place will inevitably affect people's appetite, and it is not clean, and it is uncomfortable to eat it.

"Big brother, what is this?" When Lin Wan'er was cleaning, she found a wooden box in the trough behind the chimney, and she didn't open it, but called Gorou, and her intuition told her that there must be some treasure in this wooden box, otherwise it wouldn't be hidden in such a hidden place.

Gorou also saw the wooden box after being called in, and there was a moment of trance in his eyes, and then the corners of his mouth rose, and there was irrepressible joy on his face, "I thought that the wooden box left by my mother was stolen by the third aunt, but I didn't expect to find it at home." ”

Since the death of his father and mother, the valuable things in this house have almost been lost by his third aunt day by day, if he and Liulang hadn't secretly hidden some things at home, this life would not have been able to go on at all, and they would have starved to death at home one by one.

Thinking of his third aunt's vicious behavior on weekdays, he held a fire in his chest and had nowhere to vent, it was so infuriating, he still respected her as an adult, and let her everywhere, but did she treat these children like her nephews? Not to mention Zhou Ji, I always want to scrape their oil, I've seen a thick-skinned one, but I've never seen such a thick one, it's just a thick-skinned one to grandma's house, next time I come to the door to play a scoundrel, I will definitely not be so polite to her anymore.

"This is the jewelry that my mother married back then, some of them have been lost, this is one of the few left, if I guess correctly, it must be a silver bracelet inside." Gorou swore that he was happy that what he thought he didn't see would be able to be found one day.

Hey, bracelets! It's silver, but it should be worth a lot of copper coins, right? Lin Wan'er silently prayed in her heart that she could take the treasure in the wooden box as a good price, and her full expectation was almost choked by Goro's second half of the sentence.

"This is the dowry that the mother left to the little sister in the future, although the father and mother are gone, but seeing this bracelet, the mother will feel very comforted in the spirit of the sky, and the eldest brother will make money in the future and add some dowry into it, not to mention the beautiful marriage, but at least it will not let the little sister marry too shabby."

"......" Lin Wan'er was embarrassed.

Big brother, can you be a little more subtle? How old is she, and she is thinking about getting married. Okay, okay, she knew that people in ancient times had married early, but she didn't expect it to be so precocious, her eldest brother was only ten years old, and he was still a childish elementary school student in modern times.

Hey, let's take a look at what's in the wooden box first.

Lin Wan'er wiped the dust off the wooden box and handed it to Gorou.
