Suddenly I heard laughter. I thought I had misheard, so I stopped what I was doing. But the laughter didn't stop.
On the contrary, because the house was large and quiet at night, the laughter sounded particularly ethereal, carrying a hint of inexplicable fear.
"Who, who is it?"
Turn away, turn back.
Zhou Wenzhu saw nothing; the laughter continued unabated. Zhou Wenzhu recalled some past events.
He had learned from his grandfather that when his grandfather was young, he had several concubines, all of whom were gifts from other men.
Those who are filial are naturally very stubborn, disobedient, don't know how to enjoy a good life, and cry all day long. Some even can't stand their wealthy lives and jump into wells.
The person was rescued, but they were no longer breathing. From then on...
Those who wanted to curry favor seemed to have found their way, and every now and then a few would come. Fortunately, the Zhou family was large and powerful, and many people wanted to curry favor with them.
Grandpa never lacked filial piety gifts; if he hadn't found it hard to refuse, those people wouldn't have such a good life.
"What a worthless life."
After cursing, Zhou Wenzhu felt that those people were ungrateful.
Why can't you just live a good life and have someone take care of you? Why do you have to act like you're going to kill yourself, making sure he doesn't have a peaceful night?
Whether he's alive or dead, he's still the master of the Zhou family, the rightful owner of this house.
Zhou Wenzhu boldly walked towards the well in the backyard.
Upon reaching a certain distance, Zhou Wenzhu heard some sounds, like digging in the soil, but then again, it wasn't. Just as she was about to get closer to investigate, Li Yiyi spotted her.
Fate is truly wondrous.
[Li Fuyi's family was digging for treasure when Zhou Wenzhu caught them red-handed. Is this the legendary misunderstanding between the male and female leads? Will there be a "pursuit-and-cremation" scene later?]
Come closer, the misunderstanding between you is right before your eyes.
Zhou Wenzhu stopped, under Li Yiyi's expectant gaze.
Yes, it stopped.
In a location where neither Li Laosan nor Li Laoer could easily spot her, Zhou Wenzhu was somewhat taken aback by the scene before her.
Lantern, wooden hoe, Li Fuyi
He knows everyone, but it's hard to keep in touch. He tends to overthink things late at night.
"Master, are we about to dig up a treasure?"
Wang Yiting was getting impatient and asked urgingly.
"It's still early, and we don't have any suitable tools yet, so it'll probably be another half a day."
Without even looking up, Li Laosan replied, "The wooden hoe is no good; it's laborious and inefficient." Li Laoda's forehead was already covered in a fine layer of sweat.
If it accumulates a little more, it will turn into beads of sweat that drip down.
[Heaven is helping me!]
[Zhou Wenzhu, haven't you heard Chu yet? Hurry up, your beloved Li Fuyi's family is digging up the treasure you've been longing for.]
[It's a bit of a pity. I should have drawn the treasure map as the ancestral graves of Zhou Wenzhu's family.]
[Then it will all be over: I love you to death, but you're digging up my family's ancestral graves.]
[A miscalculation, a complete miscalculation.]
Li Laoda and Jiang Yuting were smiling. I knew nothing; I really didn't hear anything.
With such unusual tastes in their daughter, how can they possibly change her mind?
Ancestral graves? How could my daughter even think of that? That won't do.
To Li Yiyi's surprise, Zhou Wenzhu didn't step forward; instead, she left with a grim expression.
Treasure
Zhou Wenzhu was both surprised and delighted to learn that Fu Bao had come to his house to dig for treasure.
Unsure how to react to the scene before her, Zhou Wenzhu returned to her original position, picked up her tools, and left.
He really left; Li Yiyi even saw him as he walked out the gate.
[No, Zhou Wenzhu, you really love her that much? Li Fuyi is digging up your hidden gem.]
[Sigh, Zhou Wenzhu is undoubtedly the new generation's warrior of pure love.]
Zhou Wenzhu is absolutely smitten; Li Fuyi, you're so lucky.
While my failures may have had their reasons, Zhou Wenzhu's tolerance chilled me to the bone.
They arrived silently and left just as quickly. Only Li Yiyi knew that a person named Zhou Wenzhu had come, and if we were to go further, there were also Li Laoda and Jiang Yuting.
"We've found it."
The spot where the wooden hoe struck was hard, and Li Laosan saw hope. He swung the hoe with divine inspiration, each strike more powerful than the last. The light from the kerosene lamp shone into the pit, casting a faint golden glow.
"The master's, it seems to be gold."
His breathing almost stopped, and Li Lao Er's eyes burned with desire as he hid in the shadows.
gold,
Ha, this time he's going to wipe them all out. What Li Laosan hid before, and what he's getting this time—whether it's Li Laotou's or Zhou Wenzhu's, it'll all end up in his hands.
If he hadn't been so rational, Li Lao Er would have rushed out.
Li Yiyi: You didn't expect that, did you? They're all mine, I'm not giving them to you.
"Master, bring it out quickly."
Wang Yiting was impatient, as was Li Laosan. They reached out their hands to where the wooden hoe had touched and easily found the piece of gold that Li Yiyi had placed there.
There is only one.
Li Laosan and Wang Yiting were disappointed, as was Li Fuyi, who was standing to the side.
I heard that Wenzhu's brother's family used to be very wealthy, surely more than this!
As expected of mother and daughter, Wang Yiting and Li Fuyi were thinking the same thing.
"Honey, keep digging, there might be more."
The wind blew by, and Li Lao Er couldn't quite make out what Wang Yiting was saying, only catching the last sentence.
besides,
How much is that? His heart was pounding. Li Lao Er felt like he was about to strike it rich.
[Also, it's impossible; don't be delusional.]
I feel bad even leaving just one piece, let alone two. I'm afraid that would make your old eyesight blurry, especially so late at night.
If that were truly the case, you wouldn't have a chance.
