Li Jinfeng used all her strength to move a brick to Li Desan, almost exhausting all her energy.
She kept gasping for breath, her face flushed red.
Li Desan: "Useless thing, can't even move a brick. What's the point of eating so much food?"
Li Jinfeng looked aggrieved. "Can you blame me for this? It's because the bricks are too heavy!"
The earthen bricks used by villagers to build houses are much larger than the green bricks and red bricks fired in brick kilns.
Li Desan's house is heavier than other people's houses.
Li Jinfeng hasn't done heavy work for a long time, but she can't be called a waste!
"You're still feeling wronged. Hurry up and find a hammer or a stone to break this brick!"
Li Jinfeng: “!!!”
Not knowing what Li Desan was up to, Li Jinfeng had to go into the house to get tools.
When Lu Jianguo was building a fence and a courtyard wall, the team leader Wang Daxian personally delivered a bunch of tools, including saws, hatchets, hammers, etc. Li Jinfeng picked up a hammer, returned to the main room, and started hammering earthen bricks.
When she came out, the door of Li Desan Company was closed.
The room became much darker, but luckily it was summer and there was plenty of light.
Before hammering the brick, Li Jinfeng looked up at Li Desan and said, "Grandpa, I really hammered it!"
"I told you to hammer, so you hammer. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
As soon as Li Desan finished speaking, Li Jinfeng swung her hammer onto the earthen bricks as if she was risking her life.
Bang, bang, bang—
After more than ten hits, I didn't break the bricks, but I was exhausted.
"Grandpa, I can't do this job. I'll go call Brother Jianguo for you." Li Jinfeng said while panting.
Li Desan glared at her with a look of disappointment on his face.
"continue!"
"I..." Li Jinfeng swallowed back her words and went to the house to look for tools. During this time, she took out a chisel from the space.
With a hammer and a chisel, they worked together and finally managed to crack the brick after a few more hits. On the last hit, when the brick cracked, Li Jinfeng heard a bang.
When she went to check out of curiosity, she found a gold brick hidden in the earthen brick.
BRIC!!!!
Or it was inside a big earthen brick, wrapped in another big earthen brick. No one could have imagined that there was such a secret inside!
Li Jinfeng was almost going crazy. She looked at Li Desan and then at the small gold brick.
"Grandpa, you wouldn't..." Li Jinfeng swallowed her saliva. She looked at Li Desan's 'broken house' again. It was no longer a broken house.
Damn, they are all gold bricks.
"It's good that you know! I'm old, and these things are useless to me, but you're still young. These things are much more valuable to you than to an old man like me."
The reason why Li Desan was reluctant to leave was that every brick in this house was built with a small gold brick.
If he leaves, the house will soon be occupied by someone else.
If the secret inside is known to others, the money will become someone else's.
If he were still alone like before, he wouldn't care who got the money.
But now it's different.
He has a granddaughter and four great-grandchildren. Raising any of them wouldn't require a huge sum of money.
The children have grown up and still have to live, right?
Li Desan has already made up his mind that even if he is gone, his granddaughter and children can live a good life.
"Grandpa, it's not a good idea for you to stay here until you die. What if I can't make it back in time? These things will belong to someone else. You might as well go back with me now and enjoy a peaceful life!" Li Jinfeng said.
