It wasn't that serious; they managed to clear a path for people to walk on. However, the things Qian Xiao wanted to do today weren't suitable to be accompanied by her two little burdens.
As soon as she finished speaking, she scurried out the door. Just as San Dan and Si Dan were about to grin, Li Guizhi said leisurely, "You two keep crying. If your sister doesn't beat you up, I'm not your mother."
San Dan and Si Dan quickly shut up. Their eldest sister didn't hit them often, but one time was enough to leave a deep impression on them. One slap on her butt would make it swell up, and they wouldn't even dare to sit down.
The old lady almost burst out laughing when she saw her two grandsons' unambitious behavior. Their eldest son was just like that, and now their granddaughter was just like that too. It saved them so much trouble. No other family could have such a blessing.
In the rural areas of Northeast China, everything you see in winter is white, especially during the coldest days of winter when strong winds are blowing, so it's really not necessary for anyone to go out.
Qian Xiao had just stepped out of her house when she was pelted with snow, forcing her to walk with her head down, trying to avoid being directly exposed to the wind and snow. However, her little ears perked up, checking to see if anyone else was on the road.
She finally reached the gate of the Wang family's house. The snow was so thick that it was obvious no one had helped to clear it. She circled around and ended up at the back of the Wang family's house. She climbed over a tree and entered the Wang family's yard. She then entered the Wang family's storeroom by leaning against the eaves where there was less snow.
She was still thinking about getting farm tools from the Wang family. Since that family wouldn't be coming back anyway, it would be a waste to leave them there, so she might as well get them for herself.
Judging from the messy house, it's clear that the Wang family has been visited by countless people. I wonder if any of the farm tools are still left.
The storeroom door wasn't even closed, and it was completely empty inside, without a single piece of firewood. These people were really something; with firewood all over the mountain, why would they come here to take advantage? Still unwilling to give up, she went into the storeroom. Inside, there was only a broken large vat, and nothing else.
She figured the big vat would have been gone long ago if it hadn't been broken. Suddenly remembering that her grandfather had placed the cellar entrance under a rock, she went over and moved the dilapidated vat a little.
Looking down, she saw nothing at all. Undeterred, she stomped her foot and heard a dull thud, clearly indicating that the place was hollow. Qian Xiao's eyes lit up instantly; there really was a fish that had slipped through the net!
After searching around and finding no tools, Qian Xiao had to use her two little feet to dig away the soil at the bottom of the jar. Sure enough, there was a wooden board under the thin layer of soil. After cleaning the soil off the wooden board, Qian Xiao opened it.
It really was a cellar down there, but it was hard to say how big it was. However, it needed to get some fresh air before going in. After waiting for a while and feeling that it was about time, Qian Xiao went down the ladder inside.
It was very dark inside. Qian Xiao took out a box of matches with only a few sticks left, which she had secretly hidden away. She struck the matches, took out a homemade torch from her spatial storage, lit it, and then she could see what the cellar looked like.
There wasn't much stuff inside, but there was a fair amount too: four wooden crates and several large burlap sacks. The sacks were probably filled with grain or something similar, but the crates were all locked, so we didn't know what was inside. But we decided to take them out and check them out first.
Qian Xiao had never tried receiving something this big before. She placed her hand on the box and silently chanted "receive," and sure enough, the box under her hand disappeared. She quickly closed her eyes and saw a large box appear next to the land she was planting.
Good heavens, I knew this space was an essential tool for home and travel. Look how simple it is! She doesn't have to carry it back and forth anymore, and no one knows she's hiding so many good things.
After putting everything away, she glanced at the cellar and, finding nothing suspicious, guessed that these were the last things the Wang family had left. She then took the branch she had broken earlier and backed away to clear away the footprints in the cellar.
After restoring everything to its original state, even cleaning up the footprints he had left when he came in, he returned home along the same route.
Upon entering the space, Qian Xiao rubbed her hands together, gazing longingly at the four large boxes. She grasped the lock, wanting to test her strength to open it, but before she could exert any force, the lock snapped in two. She felt quite pleased with herself, thinking that being strong was indeed an advantage.
When Qian Xiao opened the box and saw what was inside, he was really surprised. The box was full of money. Can you believe it was full of money? Where did Old Man Wang get so much money?
Moreover, they are all from the second set of coins. If she remembers correctly, this set of coins was only issued this year. To be able to get so many so soon after its release, how amazing must that person be?
It feels a little unreal that such a capable person was actually caught.
The second box was full of Yuan Shikai silver dollars. My goodness, that's a whole box full of silver! Next was a box of small yellow croakers. This was the first time Qian Xiao had ever seen these in real life. He reached out and took one out, and it was heavy and solid.
The last box contained women's jewelry, which wasn't in very good condition; some pieces even looked oxidized. It was clear that this old man Wang wasn't a refined person, otherwise he wouldn't have piled up gold, silver, and jade items together like junk.
She drooled as she touched each and every box, then reluctantly closed them. She couldn't take any of these things out; she couldn't explain their origins. She could only occasionally come in to look at them and satisfy her curiosity.
Then the sacks were opened one by one, and they were indeed full of grains, but they were all unhulled rice and wheat that could be used as seeds. There was even a sack of corn seeds. No one knew where the old man got so many seeds. Normal farmers don't have the extra money or connections to get so many seeds.
Old Wang's family doesn't like farming or doing any work, so what's the point of getting so many seeds?
If she couldn't figure it out, she stopped thinking about it. A normal person like her couldn't possibly think the same way as that bad guy. After calming her excited heart, she inspected the crops she had planted. To be fair, although the growth time was no different from that of the outside world, they were all alive.
She's not greedy. She had nothing before, and she was still living a good life.
After looking around enough, she slipped out of the space. As soon as she left, Sun Kaicheng entered the space and began to inspect it inch by inch. He could sense the space's frequent anomalies lately, and he couldn't find the unease in his heart.
The space was vast, but he felt he could only control the area within the white mist; he couldn't sense anything beyond that. His space wasn't always this large; it had expanded to its current size after several unexpected items were brought in.
