Chapter 540: Ginger is still spicy with age
Thinking of her grandmother's hint to her, Chen Kexin said nothing, helped the old woman into the car, and drove away.
Grandma then whispered, "Kexin, let's go back and come back tomorrow."
Will you come tomorrow?
Chen Kexin muttered to herself: Grandma should know that she is very busy. Tomorrow is Monday?
Forget it. My grandmother has never caused me any trouble in the past few months. I will go back and call her later. I will skip the English class tomorrow.
As if he knew what she was thinking, the old man continued, "I had some private property that I hid for your uncle. His daughter-in-law heard something from someone and always made trouble for your uncle, wanting to take that wealth for herself. A few years ago, she schemed to get your uncle away, thinking she could find those things, but she never found them for many years. In recent years, your uncle said that after he retired, that woman has become even more troublesome..."
Chen Kexin immediately understood why her uncle looked so old in just a few years.
Grandma continued, "It's almost noon now. Your uncle is worried that his daughter-in-law will come back at noon and see us making a fuss. He's afraid that I'll be angry, so he chased us away. Besides, it's not convenient for Xiao Shitou to get things at home, so he asked us to come back tomorrow morning when no one is home, and get the things out for us to take back."
I see!
"Grandma, why didn't you come to see my uncle when he was here?"
"Your two uncles have done well in business these years, and grandma wants to use those things as your mother's dowry. Grandma has always felt guilty towards your mother for so many years, and she has delayed it until now because you are always busy. Besides, your two aunts will come over in a few days and solve this matter. If my cousin is gone, his things will be gone too. So, I didn't mention this yesterday."
Chen Kexin understood!
"Grandma, I'll come with you tomorrow morning. Well, I think my mother is living a good life now, so I'd better give some of those things to my uncles. Besides, it's not easy for my great uncle to keep the things for so many years, so I'd better give him some as well."
The old lady said angrily, "Silly girl, I usually think you are a bit obsessed with money, why are you so silly at the critical moment? Your two uncles don't need these things, don't worry about them, just give some to your uncle."
Chen Kexin recalled how she was so happy when she found out she had 10 million a few days ago. Her face turned slightly red as she said, "Grandma, I feel happy only when I make money myself. I'm worried that my two aunts will be angry with you when they find out about this."
"How dare they? I've given them all my assets, and they're still thinking about this little bit of private money in my hand? This money can not only support your parents, but also your brothers and sisters in college and marriage."
Well, that’s a strong reason!
Chen Kexin suddenly felt relaxed.
She has always shouldered the responsibility of raising her parents and her younger brothers and sisters.
Now, I feel that the burden has been lightened a lot.
"Okay! Listen to grandma!"
The next morning, Chen Kexin drove her grandmother to the gate of the Sun family.
At this time, everyone who went to work or school has left.
As soon as the car stopped, Mr. Sun pushed open the door and walked out, carrying a few old sacks in his hands.
"Uncle, are you waiting for us?"
Just as Chen Kexin was about to open the door and get out of the car, Mr. Sun shook his head and said, "The things are not at home!"
Then he opened the car door, got in and put the sack in the car.
Chen Kexin immediately understood. No wonder Mr. Sun’s daughter-in-law had been looking for the thing at home for several years and couldn’t find it. It turned out that the thing was hidden outside.
Seeing that my uncle was seated properly, he started the car.
Following the other party's instructions, Chen Kexin arrived at the foot of a mountain in the suburbs, stopped the car, got out and looked up the mountain.
Mr. Sun got out of the car with the sack in his hand, pointed up and said, "It's not far ahead. Can cousin come up with us?"
Grandma smiled and said, "My cousin has been in good health recently, so she will have no problem climbing up. Don't cry when the time comes."
Old Sun quickly recalled his childhood memories, and his face turned red as he asked, "Then let's have a competition?"
"good!"
Chen Kexin found that the two elderly people were very competitive and immediately felt very upset. What did this pair of cousins want to do? Have you forgotten all the important things?
I wondered in my heart: How far is it from here? Are there too many things?
It’s no use saying these now, workers can only accept their fate!
Not long after walking, Mr. Sun stopped and looked around and whispered, "Squat down!"
The three of them squatted down and waited for a while. Everything around them was quiet.
Old Sun walked forward a few steps cautiously and gestured to Chen Kexin, "Girl, come over here and help..."
It’s time for workers to get to work!
Old Sun picked up some stones from the pile of rocks in front of him and threw them aside.
Chen Kexin followed suit and pushed aside the stones of all sizes.
Twenty minutes later, Mr. Sun took out a shovel from his arms and removed the soil, and soon a stone slab was revealed.
"Ke Xin, come with me to lift up this slab of stone."
Chen Kexin sighed inwardly, wondering how her great uncle had hidden the things down there decades ago?
When the two men lifted the stone slab, they saw some dirt steps leading down.
Mr. Sun took out a piece of paper from his pocket, took out a lighter, lit it, and threw it down. Seeing that the paper did not go out immediately, he whispered, "I'll go down, you take the things on the ladder?"
"Uncle, should I go down?"
"You are not familiar with the situation down there, so I'd better go down."
As he spoke, he took out a flashlight from his pocket, carried a few sacks in his other hand, and walked down carefully.
Chen Kexin also followed and walked down a few dirt steps to look down.
With the dim light of the flashlight, I found that the area below was not big and there were several boxes piled up there.
I saw Mr. Sun put the box into a sack, tied it up and carried it over.
Chen Kexin immediately understood what Mr. Sun meant. After decades, those boxes must have been damaged. Even if the boxes were damaged, they could be put into sacks to prevent them from falling apart and attracting attention.
Don’t say it, old ginger is still spicy!
She admired the place where he hid the things and the attentiveness.
She took the tied sack and immediately felt it was heavy.
Fortunately, she is still strong now and can carry the things up.
The grandmother, who was squatting on the ground, keeping an eye on everything around her and listening carefully, hurried forward to help.
"Grandma, I'll tell it myself, you be careful..."
Chen Kexin heard Mr. Sun shouting from below and quickly went down the dirt steps.
After being busy for a while, Chen Kexin counted six boxes of treasures in her mind.
Old Sun whispered from below: "It's gone!"
Chen Kexin finally breathed a sigh of relief. After everyone had dealt with the cave entrance, she said to the two elderly people, "Just wait on the mountain. I'll move the things."
Mr. Sun felt very tired and nodded and said, "Okay!"
Chen Kexin carried two sacks and walked down the mountain tirelessly.
Old Sun said enviously: "Ke Xin is quite strong!"
Wang Xiuyun boasted, "My eldest granddaughter is very outstanding. She is not only a pharmacist, but also the manager of three factories. She can speak four foreign languages and is a top student at Tsinghua University."
Old Sun sighed and said, "My son is a wimp. He is suppressed by his wife. The two grandsons look okay now, but they must not be like their parents when they grow up."
Wang Xiuyun could only advise: "The child is still young..."
Chen Kexin put the two sacks in the trunk and quickly walked up.
After Mr. Sun had a good rest, he picked out two light sacks to carry, and the three of them went down the mountain together.
On the way, Wang Xiuyun said sincerely: "Cousin, I'm giving you a box of things as a token of my appreciation."
