Soon, she dug out a small jar with five gold bars in it.
"I'm rich!" Xie Wan was very happy.
When I picked up the jar, I found an iron box underneath.
Xie Wan dug out the box together with the other one and found that it was locked. She didn't have the key and couldn't open it.
After thinking for a moment, she buried the box back and restored the soil to its original state.
Xie Wan held the jar of gold bars and ran to the woods in the distance.
She couldn't take the gold bars away yet, mainly because it was inconvenient to carry, so she found a place to bury them again and marked them.
After finishing all this, Xie Wan went for a stroll to her second aunt's house.
Her second aunt's family also lived a difficult life. The three children were all dressed in rags and looked pale and thin.
Seeing Xie Wan, the second aunt went to the kitchen to get half a sweet potato, stuffed it into Xie Wan's pocket and said, "Eat it."
Xie Wan didn't take the half piece of sweet potato, not because she disliked it, but because she guessed it was Tao Hongying's own lunch.
If she ate, Tao Hongying would definitely be hungry at noon.
"Aunt, I've already had breakfast, I just came to see you.
I am going to the city to look for my father. When I have money, I will send you some food."
Tao Hongying stroked Xie Wan's withered hair and sighed, "As long as your father is willing to keep you, you can go find him.
Your mother was not a righteous person at first. She ran away when she saw someone in trouble. But your father is not a good person either. It is understandable that he didn't want your mother, but he didn't want you either. He is really cruel.
When you go, try to be patient and try to please him.
As long as he gives you food to eat and asks you to find a marriage partner, there are many good men in the army, which is better than anything else. "
Xie Wan felt that Tao Hongying was really thinking about her, and nodded obediently, "Well, don't worry, Second Aunt, I will definitely marry a soldier and have enough food to eat!"
After leaving her second aunt's house, Xie Wan went straight to the river where she met Qin Muye yesterday.
By noon, Qin Muye still hadn't shown up. Xie Wan was hungry, so he went down to the river and caught two more fish.
This time she had matches, which she stole from home, and she also stole some salt and brought it with her.
Xie Wan found a thin stone on the ground, cut open the fish's belly, took out the internal organs, washed them, and smeared salt on them to season them.
He went to collect some firewood, started a fire, and then started to grill the fish.
The fragrance spread out after a while.
Just as Xie Wan was about to eat, she saw Guo Quezi limping onto the shore. When he saw the fish in her hand, his eyes flashed with ferocity.
Oh no, was I caught stealing his gold bars?
