Suddenly, Chen Ye sat up again as if she had come back to life. Fortunately, she was the only one living in the room. If there was someone else, she would have been frightened.
No, she quickly put on her shoes and walked towards her cellar with a flashlight. When she entered the secret room, she took out the small box she got from Old Lady Chen and the jade she got from Zhang Wei.
Two seemingly unrelated things, only when put together can we see that they should be made of the same material, to be more specific, they should be made from a piece of jade.
Moreover, the small animal obtained from Zhang Wei can fit perfectly into the empty space in the middle of the jade pendant.
She still remembered that when she looked at the jade pendant that day, she was wondering why there were so many patterns carved on such a good jade pendant.
Could this pattern be a road map? Could this jade pendant be the one Xu Bowen accidentally found?
Is this really such a coincidence? ! ! !
If it is true, then the jade pendant is divided into two parts, one in the hands of the old lady of the Chen family, and the other in the hands of Zhang Wei in the city. How did Xu Bowen and the so-called heroine get them?
Is there really such a thing as a male and female protagonist halo? It's so well hidden, and these two people got it so easily. It doesn't make sense no matter how you think about it.
So, how did the Chen family get this jade pendant? No one would believe it if they said it was handed down from their ancestors. The Chen family has been farmers for eight generations, so it is impossible for them to have such a valuable heirloom.
And Zhang Wei, I remember that this thing was originally placed in a small box with a mechanism, and placed outside separately. It was obvious that its value was different from the jewels piled up in those boxes.
There's no way this thing could just be leaked out, right? But that's not the point.
Could this jade pendant really be the key to some treasure as described in the novel?
Chen Ye didn't understand, but it didn't stop her from studying the jade pendant in the future. She remembered that the novel also said that because of this jade pendant, Fengshou Village was coveted by countless people.
Many people in the village suffered from unexpected disasters. Of course, there was no detailed description and it was just mentioned in passing, as if the lives of the villagers were not worth mentioning.
The hero and heroine went through many dangers before they finally took the treasure in the mountains for themselves. How did those people know that the jade pendant was in the hands of the hero and heroine?
My head hurts. This isn’t even mentioned in the novel.
No, it seems to be written. She needs to think about it carefully.
It seems that after the two pieces of jade were merged together, the male protagonist gave it to the female protagonist to wear around her neck. Once, the two went to the city for a trip and were seen by someone with ulterior motives.
If this jade pendant is really the one described in the novel, no one knows she has it, and she won't wear it outside to show off. Wouldn't there be so many bad guys coming to the village?
Chen Ye yawned loudly and tears came out from the corners of his eyes. He put down the jade pendant in his hand. He didn't care. The most important thing now was to sleep because he had to go to work tomorrow.
After putting it down like this, Chen Ye almost forgot about it. After all, autumn harvest is really tiring, and she is not a robot. How can a mortal body not feel tired?
After harvesting the rice, we start picking corn, which is not much easier than harvesting rice, especially since we have to peel the corn leaves and skin. After harvesting the corn, we also have to harvest potatoes, sweet potatoes, and peanuts.
We also need to clear the roots and rhizomes in the ground and plant a season of cabbage as soon as possible. The villagers depend on these cabbages and radishes to survive the winter.
Chen Ye put down the farm tools in his hands and instantly felt relaxed. The tiring autumn harvest was finally over. There was not much to do this year. He just had to go to work and do some work at a fixed time every day.
Erya was right behind Chen Ye, and the two of them walked back together. Erya had lost a lot of weight during the busy farming season. This year, Erya's mother could not do heavy work, which meant that their family had lost a strong laborer.
The second girl would do her mother's share as much as possible. At first, she did twenty work points a day like Chen Ye, but later she simply did thirty work points a day.
Chen Ye followed the lead for a few days, but gave up because she felt too tired. She fed the whole family by herself, but it really wasn't that hard.
"Go back and have a good rest. Let your mother nourish you. Look how thin you are."
The second girl grinned, but her bright smile couldn't hide the fatigue on her face. Chen Ye felt so tired helping her.
"I'm fine. At least I don't have to do any work when I get home," she gestured to Chen Ye to look over.
Chen Ye followed the second girl's gaze and saw a thin figure walking silently on the side of the road with his head down. The figure looked even thinner than Chen Ye before, and was also small in stature.
Although their village does not have a serious preference for boys over girls, there are still one or two special families, such as the Bai family, the girl's family.
It's a shame to have this surname. That family is so evil and they always bring trouble to the girls in the family. The girls in the Bai family have to do a lot of work since they can walk. They have to work as soon as they open their eyes.
Not only do they have to do a lot of work, but they also don't have enough to eat. The men in the family are like old men. They work and earn five or six work points a day, which is not enough to support themselves. When they get home, they do nothing to do.
If it weren't for the women in the family supporting the men in the family, the men would have starved to death.
Chen Ye thought for a while before remembering the girl's name, which was not a proper name, so he just called her Da Ni. Her younger sisters were called Er Ni, San Ni, and so on.
Chen Ye didn't understand. It seemed that girls of this era didn't deserve to have a normal name. Anyway, the names of the girls in their village were chosen very casually, like her own name.
Dani is an even more transparent person than Chen Ye before. In any case, Chen Ye has never heard Dani say a word, and she has done a very good job of practicing the principle of silence being golden.
Dani is the eldest girl of the third generation of the Bai family. She is more capable than an old ox. Although she works in the fields all day long doing the same work as a strong laborer, she is also busy when she returns home. She has to wash clothes, cook and serve the whole family.
Who can blame their family for having so many people? There are seven people in Dani's family alone, including two girls, her and her sister. Her sister is still young and can't do heavy work, so she has to do most of the work.
Her mother is also a weirdo. She was born in a family that favors boys over girls. She should be nicer to her daughter and not let her daughter suffer everything she had suffered.
But she didn't. She was harsher to her daughters than anyone else and exploited them to her heart's content. She didn't treat her two daughters as human beings at all.
Looking at Dani, who is probably less than 1.5 meters tall, can you believe it! Dani is already 16 years old?
However, there are many such pitiful people these days. Who can be so pitiful as to come over? They don't know how to resist and just know to endure it. No one can help them.
