Because Xiao Dazhuang found gold, everyone finally realized that it wasn't fake!
This is a real treasure!
Everyone was as excited as if they'd been injected with chicken blood.
Enthusiasm has grown even stronger.
Even those whose family members couldn't all come went back to call for help as quickly as possible.
We have to hurry! Gold waits for no one.
I went back to eat something at noon yesterday.
I'm not eating lunch today.
Someone has found something again.
This time, however, he was more experienced and didn't shout; instead, he slipped away quietly.
It was someone who came with him who discovered that he had disappeared halfway through the journey; that's what everyone was guessing.
Now I have even more motivation.
Even after the sun had set, no one wanted to leave.
Anyway, it's all about touching things in the water.
It doesn't matter if we can't see it.
If you touch something you're unsure about, take it out and examine it by the moonlight.
For the sake of gold, any difficulty can be overcome.
Su Ruobai's luck wasn't very good today.
There was nothing to show for it.
The sun went down, and she went home.
With so many people around, any treasures you find will likely be taken by others.
She should go into the mountains and hunt a wild pheasant to make beggar's chicken.
She was craving it.
I heard it's very simple.
Clean it up, wrap it in lotus leaves, coat it with mud, and then put it in the fire to roast.
As for this so-called treasure, she wouldn't get involved.
For three consecutive days, the entire Shangwan Village has been in an uproar.
Not only did Dazhuang's family find the treasure, but several other families did too.
In the village, those who found the treasure were filled with joy and laughter.
Those who couldn't find it either had a blank expression and were unwilling to speak.
I heard laughter coming from somewhere.
It's like spitting out a mouthful of blood.
To curse something.
Not only in Shangwan Village, but also in several downstream villages, people with good connections know that treasures have been found.
They all follow the same approach.
I don't know who was the first to shout in the village that there was gold in the river.
The old team leader and the old Party Secretary sat on either side of the kang table, puffing on their pipes.
Both of them had their brows furrowed deeply.
This is not right.
Although they had never formally served in the military, they had plenty of combat experience.
Something just doesn't look right.
To ensure the safety of the villagers, the militia has been patrolling the village for several days.
There's been no movement yet.
Just in case, they also contacted several villages downstream.
They also suspected something was amiss.
The old team leader even considered contacting the police, but if he did, the villagers would become their enemies!
It's tough!
Aunt Xiao brought in a plate of cucumber salad, but the two old smokers made her cough.
He put his things on the table and said, "Stop smoking, everyone, take a break."
There's nothing we can do about this. They picked them up themselves, how can you expect them all to be returned?
If all else fails, you can call a meeting and explain the country's policies.
Those who are willing to pay can pay; those who are unwilling, what can you do but rob them?
If you really feel that someone is setting a trap, you should explain it to them clearly.
Let them take care of their own safety. We're not their parents, so why should we interfere?
Besides, even parents shouldn't be so old as to still be taking care of their children!
"Stop smoking, or I'll set my house on fire."
The two listened with furrowed brows, then thought it was feasible, since they had no other options anyway.
Then they went and started shouting about holding a big meeting.
The village didn't have electricity yet, so they had to go from street to street delivering notices by banging a gong.
The conference was held at the dilapidated stage.
I don't know when it was built.
It was severely damaged; only the platform remained.
The village committee members were at the top, and they read the message over a loudspeaker.
The villagers were below, some sewing shoe soles, others quilting insoles.
They chattered and chattered in small groups.
What they say doesn't matter.
The important thing is who finds the good stuff.
The old captain was getting anxious seeing how unserious they were!
He grabbed the megaphone and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Don't take this lightly. Those of you who are older have all been through this."
Go home and ask your parents if there's any possibility that this is a trap.
Furthermore, cultured people often say that possessing a treasure is a crime, meaning that those who have valuable possessions may be harmed by bad people.
If you really found something, you should hand it in. Don't let this cause trouble.
Also, make sure to lock the doors and windows at night and be careful!
Zhang Hehua rolled her eyes in disdain upon hearing her father-in-law's words.
A young woman who was on good terms with her saw this and teased, "Lotus, what's wrong with your eyes? Are you angry because you heard your father-in-law say that?"
Zhang Hehua: "What nonsense are you talking about? Who would dare!"
I was perfectly fine, and they dared to kick me out without giving me anything. If I had anything, they would have taken the house back too.
The young woman, with a gossipy look on her face, approached Zhang Hehua and whispered, "I heard that you've been eating either chicken or fish these past few days, is that true?"
Zhang Hehua's liver ached with anger just thinking about it.
It would have been better if we hadn't separated. When we hadn't separated, she would always have a share of any good food.
It's good to send it to her family.
It's good that the family has separated now.
Well, that's it. Nothing's left.
The old lady was so biased. She gave one of the two big fish to her second son's family and kept the other for herself.
Why doesn't she give herself one?
Her nephew is so malnourished, it would be so nice if he could have a fish to eat.
So Zhang Hehua rolled her eyes: "Who told you that? It's all chicken and fish. Even the richest landlords couldn't afford that much."
