Yu Jiuqian covered his head which was hit by a stone, looking terrified.
The words "haunted" and "unclean" that her mother Wang Guifen kept muttering were magnified infinitely in her mind at this moment.
Everything that happened today was like a nightmare, and the water falling from the sky was the last straw that broke her sanity.
She crawled away from the Yu family, her disheveled figure disappearing into the night.
It is said that when Yu Jiuqian returned home, he had a high fever and kept talking nonsense, sometimes shouting "There is a ghost", and sometimes begging for mercy "Don't hit me".
Her family was so scared that they rushed her to the hospital, but she refused to go and insisted on going to the Taoist temple, saying that some evil creature was following her.
Yu Jiuqian's unusual behavior further confirmed the claim that she was an "ominous person", and she was avoided by everyone at home and outside.
Of course, this is all later.
At this moment, the Yu family was in jubilation.
After seeing off Yu Jiuqian and the villagers who were watching the fun, Yu Bai took out the bag of gold from the space.
Although some of the gold bars have a dark surface, they still shine alluringly under the dim light.
Five kilograms of gold, piled together, sparkled brightly and exuded a suffocating scent of wealth.
Zhou Fengxia looked at so much gold, her throat tightened and she couldn't say a word for a long time.
"This...this...so much gold..."
After a while, she found her voice again, but she still stuttered.
The two men, Yu Sheng and Yu Nian, also stared in amazement.
Where have they ever seen so much gold in their lives?
The two of them seemed to be frozen, their eyes widened and even their breathing became lighter.
Seeing this, Yu Bai smiled and explained, "Gold is worthless in the end times. It's even less valuable than a crystal core."
"Crystal cores in the apocalypse are like money today; they can be used to buy things. Gold, on the other hand, is like waste paper."
Speaking of this, Yu Bai suddenly remembered what Han Yi wanted to exchange.
The food and other things are easy to deal with, but the trucks...she doesn't understand."
Yu Bai looked at Yu Nian for help.
"Brother, I need a truck."
Yu Nian finally came back to his senses, his eyes moved away from the gold and fell on Yu Bai's face.
"Do they need trucks over there? How many do they need? What are the requirements?" Yu Nian asked a series of questions.
Yu Bai shook his head, his delicate brows slightly furrowed, with a hint of confusion.
"I'm not too sure. Han Yi just said he needed a car, but he didn't say anything else."
Yu Nian and Yu Sheng looked at each other, and they both saw the same idea in each other's eyes - they had to find the fourth brother Yu Cheng for this matter.
"Fourth brother?" Yu Bai was a little confused and didn't understand why Fourth Brother was suddenly mentioned.
Yu Sheng explained: "Every year, the army retires a number of military trucks. Although these vehicles are retired, they are not scrapped. Their performance is still very good."
"As long as it does not involve technical secrets, you can apply through the application process."
He paused and added, "Although your fourth brother is in the military equipment department, his old classmate from the military academy happens to be in the military vehicle patrol department. He should be able to apply for it through the procedures."
Yu Sheng’s words were like the sun shining through the clouds, allowing Yu Bai to understand instantly.
Her eyes lit up and she said excitedly, "Then I'll call Fourth Brother!"
Yu Sheng reached out to stop her: "Don't worry, I'll contact Yu Cheng. You and Yu Nian should first find a way to cash in this gold. After all, buying a car is not a small amount of money."
Yu Bai nodded to show his understanding.
She knew that her elder brother had thought it through carefully, and the most important thing now was to convert the gold into cash as soon as possible and prepare for the next plan.
"The matter of converting this gold into cash still depends on the second brother." Yu Sheng pondered for a moment, his eyes fell on Yu Nian, "You know a lot of people and have a lot of connections, so you go and do it."
When Yu Bai heard this, he thought it made sense and nodded repeatedly.
Her second brother has been a "social butterfly" since he was a child. He knows all kinds of people, so he is the perfect person to ask for this kind of thing.
Of course Yu Nian would not refuse, and immediately took the electric arc to contact the person.
However, before cashing in, Yu Bai stopped Yu Nian who was about to go out and said softly, "Brother, don't be in a hurry. Let mom pick some out first."
Yu Nian was stunned for a moment, then he understood, responded with a smile, and turned back to the house to find Zhou Fengxia.
Zhou Fengxia sat on a chair, holding a rag in her hand, carefully wiping the golden jewelry.
Hearing Yu Bai's words, she raised her head.
"Xiaobai, it's better to exchange this gold for money first. There's no rush for things at home."
Yu Bai knew his mother's character. She was always frugal and always put her children first in everything.
She walked forward, sat down next to Zhou Fengxia, and said firmly, "Mom, you have to listen to me this time. Let's pick out some of the good gold first, and there will be more in the future."
Zhou Fengxia couldn't persuade her daughter, so she had to smile and nod.
In fact, she had this plan in mind.
Part of this gold was intended to be used as a dowry for Yu Bai in the future, and the other part was intended to be used for the weddings of his sons.
The mother and daughter got together and began to carefully select.
Zhou Fengxia has an excellent eye and specializes in picking jewelry with rich colors and novel styles.
Choose a gold bracelet with auspicious dragon and phoenix patterns, a ring with a ruby, a necklace in the shape of a teardrop, and earrings with the image of a goldfish playing in the water...
Each piece of gold jewelry turned over in Zhou Fengxia's hands, as if it was glowing with new brilliance.
Yu Bai watched from the side and felt warm in his heart.
"This bracelet is so beautiful, Mom, try it on."
Yu Bai picked up a gold bracelet carved with exquisite patterns and put it on Zhou Fengxia's wrist.
Zhou Fengxia looked down at the gold bracelet on her wrist and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
I picked and picked, and before I knew it, I had picked out quite a few.
Zhou Fengxia looked at the pile of gold jewelry in front of her, which looked like a small mountain. She estimated that it weighed about one kilogram and began to feel a little hesitant.
"Xiaobai, these...are they too many? Do you have enough to exchange for money?" Zhou Fengxia asked with some concern.
Yu Bai put his arm around Zhou Fengxia, shook his head gently, and comforted her with a smile.
"Not much, Mom. There will be more later. Don't always pick out the ones for us. Pick out some you can wear yourself."
As he spoke, Yu Bai began to help Zhou Fengxia choose.
She picked out a bracelet with a rich peony pattern, a ring inlaid with emeralds, and a simple and elegant necklace for Zhou Fengxia...
Zhou Fengxia loves to look pretty, but she just doesn't like to dress up.
Now that her daughter personally selected it for her, she naturally liked it very much.
"This ring is so beautiful. It matches your bracelet perfectly." Zhou Fengxia picked up the emerald ring and played with it lovingly.
Yu Bai looked at the smile on his mother's face and felt happy.
The suffering she experienced in her previous life made her cherish every moment with her family even more.
In this life, she must let her family live a happy and stable life.
