Xu Miaomiao wiped the set of zodiac wood carvings clean and placed them on the table, rubbing his hands excitedly. Next it was time to open the blind box.
Xu Miaomiao found a saw and a knife, weighed the wood carvings one by one, compared them, and finally chose the heaviest one to start with.
Although the wood was not of good quality, it was very strong. Xu Miaomiao struggled with a saw and a knife before she finally made a crack.
Looking at the wood that was split in two and the scattered gold beads, Xu Miaomiao was secretly happy that she had really found a bargain.
When Xu Miaomiao discovered that the weights of the wood carvings in this set were different at the scrap yard today, she remembered a story her grandfather told her when she was a child.
It is said that in ancient times, because bandits were rampant, some families would hide their valuables in inconspicuous wood carvings when they were going on a long journey.
Because those are just ordinary wood, the bandits will not be interested in them and will wait until they get to a safe place to open them.
That's why she thought of buying it home to try, but she didn't expect that she would actually come across it.
Just from this one wood carving, there are hundreds of small gold beads, each weighing about one gram, which means more than one hundred grams of gold!
Although private gold trading is not allowed now, when it can be sold, it will be a large sum of money.
Thinking that a large sum of money was waving towards her, Xu Miaomiao didn't feel tired at all, and opened the remaining eleven with great enthusiasm.
Unfortunately, not every one of them contains gold. Five of them are empty and are just ordinary wooden carvings.
Among the remaining six, three are the same as the one just now, all are small gold beads.
Among the remaining three, one contained small gold bars, and the other two contained various gems.
In fact, Xu Miaomiao is not short of money. Not to mention that she has a space to produce food continuously.
In her villa alone, Chen Chen's safe contained dozens of gold bars he collected, as well as the jewelry he bought for her.
Any one of them would be worth a fortune, but these were bargains she found, so the sense of satisfaction she felt was different.
She found a small box and put all the things away, unable to suppress her excitement for a long time.
Xu Miaomiao thought that since she was so excited that she couldn't sleep, she might as well do some work in the space.
The chicks and geese that were hatched earlier have grown a lot and have now shed their fluffy yellow feathers.
Xu Miaomiao pulled up some grass from the ground, mixed it with feed, and fed it to them. According to their growth rate in the space, it wouldn't be long before they could eat the eggs they laid.
The rabbits have already settled down on the pasture and dug quite a few holes. They are now in groups. I can take two of them out to eat when I have a dinner party tomorrow.
Xu Miaomiao drove the harvester to harvest another wave of crops in the field. She looked at the grain piled up in the warehouse and thought about finding an opportunity to go to the city to sell these things, otherwise it would be a waste to leave them there.
Also, the species in the space are a bit too monotonous now, with only corn and rice. I have to find an opportunity to find some more seeds to plant.
She felt that given the current situation in the space, she could try to plant some wheat.
When Xu Miaomiao came out of the space, she glanced at her watch. It was already past ten o'clock. She didn't dare to delay any longer and went to bed quickly.
Xu Miaomiao went back to the space to sleep last night because she was a little uncomfortable living here at the beginning.
Many people cannot get used to sleeping on a kang, but Xu Miaomiao adapted to it very well. She even felt that lying on the warm kang relieved a lot of fatigue.
The next morning, I simply boiled two eggs, heated a cup of milk, drank it, and went to work.
Although she wasn't angry about this, if she didn't go to work, she would be reported by jealous people and it would cause trouble for Chen Jianghe.
Anyway, her job is just to collect grass for pigs. She is now proficient in the job and can finish all the work for the day in just one morning.
While mowing the lawn absentmindedly, I was planning tonight's menu in my mind.
Because she was going to treat people to dinner tonight, she went to the brigade headquarters early today to hand in today's pig feed and record her work points.
On the way back, she happened to meet Chen Chen, who was standing there waiting for her.
Xu Miaomiao took a few quick steps to meet him, and very naturally put her arm around his.
Chen Chen felt the girl's soft part pressed tightly against his arm. He froze and didn't know how to move.
Xu Miaomiao didn't think there was anything wrong at all and continued talking to him, "Have you told Liu Changan about the tens of thousands of dollars you're going to treat him to a meal?"
When Chen Chen spoke again, his voice was a little hoarse, "Yeah, I told him."
Xu Miaomiao took his hand and talked about the arrangements for tonight. "I only invited Lin Fang and Feng Qingqing. I didn't tell the other educated youth because I'm not familiar with them. I wanted to avoid embarrassment later."
"I don't know anyone in the village well. Only Liu Changan helped me before, so I asked him to help me."
"Do you have any other good friends in the village? If so, you can invite them over. It will be more lively with more people!"
Seeing that the man didn't respond for a long time after she asked him a question, Xu Miaomiao nudged him lightly with her elbow in dissatisfaction.
Unexpectedly, the man reacted so strongly that he took two steps to the side and asked in shock, "What's wrong?"
Xu Miaomiao reluctantly repeated her question, "I'm asking if you have any close friends who you could invite over to have some fun together."
Chen Chen shook his head and explained, "I went out to serve in the army when I was sixteen. I haven't been back for so many years. Only Liu Changan is still familiar to me."
Xu Miaomiao thought that he had been in the army for so many years and could only come back once a year, so it was normal that his childhood friends had become estranged.
"Then you should go early this afternoon and help me with something, and I'll show you some of my skills!"
Chen Chen agreed casually.
Xu Miaomiao wondered why this person was so weird today. He was absent-minded when talking to her, and even wanted to stay away from her when walking.
"You seem a little strange today, huh?"
After hearing this, Chen Chen quickly pulled down his clothes. Could it be that she had discovered it?
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of Chen's house. Chen Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'll go home and change into clothes first, and then I'll come to your place later."
Xu Miaomiao looked at his back and wondered why he walked so strangely today. Was his leg hurting again?
As soon as Chen Chen got home, he took off his clothes and took a cold shower, which helped him suppress the restlessness in his body.
Thinking about the embarrassing situation just now, I was glad that she didn't notice and comforted myself in my heart.
This is a normal reaction of an adult male, proving that he is in good health!
When Wang Yan came back, she saw her son sitting in the yard in a daze, and he didn't even notice that she was back.
Just as I was about to talk to him, I noticed two streaks of blood slowly flowing from under his nose.
While reminding him to get some cold water for worship, I was thinking to myself, could it be that the weather has been too hot recently and he has a sore throat?
