Finally, the family discussed it with each other and decided that it would be better to keep this matter a secret from He Huaishi.
After all, He Huaishi is a child who cannot keep secrets. If she finds out, it will be bad if everyone in the village knows about it one day.
He Huaishi didn't need her family to find ways to hide it from her. After all, He Huaishi was already asleep at this moment.
After dinner, He's mother left dinner for He Huaishi.
He's mother stayed at home to look after the children, while Yu Wan, He Huaishu and He's father went up the mountain together.
It's dark now and it's inconvenient to move around, so people in the village don't like to go out much.
Yu Wan successfully took He's father and He Huaishu to the mountain and found the place where he had dug flowers before.
He signaled He Huaishu to use the shovel he carried with him to dig up the soil.
He Huaishu nodded and started digging the soil.
After a few shovelfuls, they easily dug out the box that Yu Wan mentioned.
The three of them didn't have time to open it and take a closer look, so they took advantage of the moonlight to move the box back to the He family.
Fortunately, I didn’t meet anyone along the way, otherwise it would be difficult to explain.
Just after the He family closed the door, Grandma Zhao from the Zhao family next door started cursing Zhao Dafu viciously.
"You lousy thing, are you worried about having too much money?
How can you give thirty yuan to someone else just like that? Are you going to piss me off to death? "
At this time, Zhao Dafu looked at Grandma Zhao and spoke to her speechlessly.
"Mom, I don't want to either.
If you hadn't gone to steal other people's things, would I have done this?
Don't you know what you have done?
The village chief had already given repeated warnings before the neighbors arrived.
They say the people next door are not easy to mess with, so we shouldn’t mess with them.
Look, not only do you provoke the people next door, you even steal other people's things.
The village chief unconditionally protected them in this matter today.
You can imagine how deep the background of the person next door is. We should avoid offending such people if we can avoid it."
Just as Grandma Zhao was about to say something, Father Zhao waved his hand and said.
"Okay, Mom, stop talking, the money at home is almost gone.
I'll go dig up another silver nugget from the mountain, and then take it to the county town to exchange it for money.
I told you to keep a low profile.
I just stumbled upon this piece of silver in the mountains. If anyone knew about it, our family would be left with nothing."
After hearing this, Grandma He calmed down and said to Zhao Dafu.
"Okay, go dig up all these silver dollars and bring them home.
Why did you bury it on the mountain?
I was constantly worried that the silver dollar would be stolen."
Hearing this, Zhao Dafu said nonchalantly.
"Mom, don't worry, the place I chose is well hidden and won't be dug away by anyone.
You stay home and look after the children. I will go up the mountain right away."
After saying this, Zhao Dafu went out with his hoe on his back.
The He family had just returned home at this time. Less than ten seconds after they closed the door, Zhao Dafu went out with a hoe on his back.
It only took ten seconds to go back and forth, and the two groups of people separated perfectly.
He's mother breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the three people return safely.
After opening the door, the four of them went to He's mother's room together.
He closed the door, lit a candle, and then pried the lock open.
By candlelight, the three of them gasped.
When I heard Yu Wan say that there was silver inside, I had no real idea.
Now when they opened it and found that it was neatly laid out with silver bars, they realized that Yu Wan had not exaggerated at all, and there were even more than they had imagined.
At this time, Yu Wan took the silver in his hand and looked at it carefully.
I was too nervous when I was in the mountain before, afraid of being discovered, so I didn't look at the silver carefully.
When Yu Wan was reading the book in his hand at this moment, he heard He's mother's brief exclamation, and then she quickly covered her mouth.
Yu Wan then looked in the direction of He's mother's surprised gaze.
Under the dim candlelight, He's mother took a silver dollar from where Yu Wan had taken it.
And just below the two silver dollars were these neatly arranged gold nuggets, which even glowed faintly under the candlelight.
When Yu Wan saw the gold, she didn't care about the silver in her hand. She quickly threw the silver bar into He Huaishu's arms and picked up the gold like a treasure.
A heavy piece of paper was turned over again.
There were two layers of gold and two layers of silver, four layers in total.
They thought it was all silver and they had already made a lot of money, but they didn't expect that there was gold hidden underneath.
At this time, He's mother looked at He's father with some fear and said to him.
"Old He, what should we do?
There are so many, can we take these things?"
At this time, He Huaishu squatted down, held up the candle and moved closer to the box, carefully observing what was inside.
Then he stretched out his hand and gestured at the box, and finally said.
"Mother, a lot of the silver in this box has been taken away.
There were originally five floors, but now there are only four."
Hearing this, Yu Wan also squatted down and looked carefully.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he looked at the next door and whispered.
"Could this silver be hidden by the family next door?"
Hearing this, the He family members all looked towards the next door.
