In this day and age, their wedding will inevitably be very simple, but with the company and blessings of their loved ones, they feel very satisfied, and the two are very much looking forward to it!
When Lin Manman opened the door, she saw Shitou standing outside the yard.
She was still wondering if something had happened to the Jiang family again?
Or is it that Shitou’s family is here to steal things again?
Because there was no one in the yard, Shi Tou did not come in even though the gate of the Gu family's yard was open.
Lin Manman called Shitou into the yard and asked, "Shitou, why are you looking for me so urgently? Did something happen?"
Shitou shook his head and replied, "It's okay, the problem has been solved. The commune sent people to my grandmother's house to do ideological work.
My grandma asked me to give this to you. She said that if she kept these things, they would just become waste, and giving them to you would show their value!
Sister Ni, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first. I have to go cut grass for the pigs to earn some work points."
Lin Manman took the wooden box handed to her by Shi Tou, and was completely confused.
As soon as she took it in her hand, she felt the weight of the box. It was really not light at all!
Just as Shi Tou was about to run away, she stopped him.
It is impolite to come without giving anything in return.
When giving a gift, there has to be a give-and-take. Since Shi Tou has given me a gift, I have to express my gratitude in return.
"Shi Tou, wait a minute, I have something to give you!"
Lin Manman repeatedly told him to wait a moment, then turned around and ran back into the house.
She put the wooden box on the kang first, and then began to take things out of the space.
I took ten eggs each of chicken eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs, one pound each of brown sugar and red dates, and two pounds each of cornmeal, corn grits, and flour.
She wanted to take more, but was afraid that it would be difficult to take the stones back.
Lin Manman weighed these things and found that they were almost the same weight as the box that Shitou brought.
She put it in a backpack and covered it with a piece of "Gu Zhuoyuan's" tattered clothes to prevent it from being seen.
She didn't feel sorry at all when the clothes were taken out.
Among the supplies released from the space nowadays, there are quite a few clothes for men, women, and children.
They really don't have any special hobbies of wearing other people's old and torn clothes.
Even if it was worn by this body, they would still feel a little uncomfortable.
After preparing the things, Lin Manman hurried out.
"Shi Tou, take these things back with you. Try to take the small path and go back quickly so that no one can see you!" she warned.
When Shitou came, he took the small path. Grandma Jiang repeatedly told him not to let anyone see him.
If they saw these things, their family would be in trouble again!
Stone can only do what he is told.
He wanted to refuse at this moment, but Lin Manman insisted, so he had no choice but to accept it.
"Sister Nani, I'm going back first!"
On the way back, Shitou kept walking on the small path and didn't see a single person.
After sending the stone away, Lin Manman returned to the house. She wanted to see what was in the box.
Since Shitou made this special trip, and considering what he just said, she felt that the things in this box must be extraordinary.
At first, Lin Manman thought it was just an ordinary wooden box for luggage.
After opening it, she discovered that there was a secret hidden in the box!
This ordinary wooden box is just a cover, there is actually a rectangular wooden box inside.
Just by looking at the exquisite workmanship and the material of the wooden box, you can tell that this thing is worth a lot of money!
Lin Manman's breathing became suffocated.
This this this......
An idea suddenly occurred to her: Could the things in here be small yellow croakers or something like that?
She took a deep breath, then slowly opened the wooden box, and was surprised again.
This is a jewelry box, a layered jewelry box.
The first layer is filled with gold jewelry, including various exquisitely crafted gold hairpins, gold rings, gold necklaces, gold bracelets...
Just by looking at the quality of the jewelry, you can tell that the owner cherishes them very much.
The second layer is jade ornaments, including imperial green, chicken pit red, purple jadeite, etc.
Every piece of jewelry would cause a sensation in later generations.
The bottom layer almost blinded Lin Manman's eyes. It was a diamond!
Loose diamonds weighing more than one carat were piled up on this layer of the box!
What kind of wealthy family can afford this?
Lin Manman suddenly felt that what she had just replied to was not good enough...
She originally thought that others could not take advantage of her, and she could not take advantage of others either.
They had already received corresponding rewards for saving the grandparents and grandchildren in the beginning, so the matter was written off.
She didn't want to take advantage of the other party today, but she never thought that she would get such a huge advantage!
Now she didn't even have the mind to sleep, she just wanted to find a solution as soon as possible.
Or maybe she just made a mistake!
She should have opened the box first to see what was inside before deciding whether she could keep it!
I thought that since the Jiang family's grandfather and grandson had fallen into that situation, their family should be penniless.
"Even if it's a gift for myself, I'm afraid it's not worth much money." This was what Lin Manman thought when she accepted the gift.
But after all, I am still too ignorant!
She had been killing time in the space until Gu Zhuoyuan came back pushing a new bicycle, and then she found someone to discuss things with.
When she showed the thing to Gu Zhuoyuan, he was also quite surprised.
"Brother Yuan, should we return these things? I only gave him a few things, and now I think it's a bit embarrassing to give them away!" Lin Manman said.
Gu Zhuoyuan pondered for a moment and said, "Since they sent it here, it means they have already decided what to do.
Grandma Jiang is a wise person. She knows what choice is best for herself.
Even if the two of them keep these things, they may not be able to keep them, and they may even cause trouble.
But if she gave it to us, she knew that we would definitely preserve it properly and also help the stone.
The old lady is so old, she doesn't have many years left to live, she is paving the way for the stones in advance!"
Lin Manman finally understood what this incident was all about.
She suddenly felt that she had been cheated by Old Lady Jiang!
These things are good and they are indeed worth some money in the next two years.
But in two years, these things will become scrap metal, or even death warrants!
Yet she accepted it directly...
If it were someone else, they might think that it was given voluntarily by Old Lady Jiang and accept it with peace of mind.
But they like to balance benefits in everything they do, and this time it was obvious that they took advantage of Old Lady Jiang!
