cold!

Cold to the marrow!

His teeth were chattering uncontrollably, clicking, clicking, clicking, and they kept colliding with each other. The sound was loud, and his body was shaking like chaff.

"It's not that cold in the lake. When we stepped ashore, the cold wind blew. It was so cold! His grandma's legs were so bad that I froze like a grandchild."

A remote lakeside.

The sun was dazzling, but because of the wind, I couldn't feel much warmth on my body.

Xu Dahai shivered, wiped his body as quickly as possible, and quickly got dressed.

There was still some moisture on the surface of the body, so it was difficult to put on clothes. After a lot of effort, I finally managed to put them on.

"There is so much gold and silver that we can't transport it back at once! Forget it, transport the gold first, gold is valuable!"

Xu Dahai looked around and found that there was really no one around. He breathed a sigh of relief and quickly tied up the sleeves and collar of a sweater. He loaded up the money one by one, walked east, dug a snow pit and buried it.

Then it was time to transport gold home.

Home.

Bang~

Wang Xiuxiu was sitting on the kang in the back room, knitting and watching TV. The fat orange cat was lying on her lap, her belly rising and falling, and she was sleeping soundly.

When she heard the door being knocked open, she thought it was a dog breaking in, because if a person opened the door, it would not be so violent and the impact would be so loud.

"Silly dog! Get out!"

"It's not the dog, it's me."

Xu Dahai was panting and entered the house with his bulging sweater pockets in his arms. He had spent so much in the past half day that he almost fell to the ground from exhaustion.

"Oh my God, are you going to have sex? Sit down on the kang."

Wang Xiuxiu was startled, dropped her sweater, quickly got off the kang, and reached out to take the sweater he was holding.

She stood up so violently that the big orange cat lying on her lap, still asleep, flew out and fell to the ground with a "meow~" sound.

"No, no, it's too heavy. Don't hit you."

The density of gold is very high. It may seem like the sweater is not very big when stretched out, but the gold inside weighs hundreds of kilograms.

After carefully placing the sweater on the kang, Xu Dahai let out a long breath.

That is to say, he has a strong body and amazing endurance. If it had been anyone else, he would have been foaming at the mouth from exhaustion as early as by the small lake.

"What's in the sweater?"

Wang Xiuxiu turned to look at the sweater. The sweater was stretched open, unsightly, bulging, and there was a lot of mud and ice on the surface.

"You'll know just by looking at it."

"Hi~ So much gold!? Where did it come from?"

"Finding the treasure left behind by the bandits."

Xu Dahai lifted up his cotton trousers, arranged his clothes, and sat down on the chair next to him. The chair squeaked.

While slowly recovering his strength, he told Wang Xiuxiu the general story. The latter's almond-shaped eyes widened, feeling very incredible.

At the same time, I felt that Xu Dahai was too bold, and I couldn't help but feel scared.

"The pond in the east is so dangerous. How many people have drowned? How dare you go down there!? What if you can't get up?"

"I did feel a little impulsive at the time, ahem, but luckily nothing happened."

Wang Xiuxiu poured a bowl of steaming hot water for Xu Dahai and let him drink it to warm himself up. At the same time, she urged him to get on the kang to warm up and cover him with a quilt.

About half an hour later.

Xu Dahai's body was almost warm, so he put the water bowl on the windowsill and said:

"I still have money. To avoid long nights and nightmares, it's better to move back home as soon as possible so that you can rest assured."

"You're both cold and tired, why don't you take a break?" Wang Xiuxiu said with distress on her face.

"It's okay. Let's move all the money back first. Then we can rest as long as we want."

"Okay, I'll move with you!"

Xu Dahai saw determination in Wang Xiuxiu's eyes. After thinking about it, he suddenly smiled and said:

"My daughter-in-law, please love me. Okay, you can bring the money later and I will take you there."

"I'll move if I want. Don't underestimate me. I'm very strong."

The two of them took two fertilizer bags and walked eastward from the north of the backyard. Instead of taking the main road, they took the narrow paths in the corners.

Wait until you arrive near the east pond.

Xu Dahai took Wang Xiuxiu to the place where the silver was buried, and pulled away the snow. A large number of black and gray silver ingots and silver cakes were exposed.

Wang Xiuxiu has always been very nervous, cautious, and cautious. She looks around from time to time, as if she were a thief, and is very afraid of being discovered.

Xu Dahai could tell that his wife even kept her breathing as low as possible, as if others could spot them if she breathed louder.

"Xiuxiu, relax, don't be so nervous, haha~"

"Yeah, no, why are you laughing?"

Wang Xiuxiu realized that she was too nervous, and she laughed herself, patted Xu Dahai on the arm, and the two quickly put money into the bag.

"Wow~Wow~"

When the silver collides, there are crisp metal collision sounds, which is really nice to hear.

"Putting money into a bag feels like harvesting potatoes in autumn. I also throw money into the bag in a hurry."

Wang Xiuxiu was excited and quickly threw the silver ingots and silver cakes into the bag with quick movements.

Xu Dahai held the mouth of the bag with both hands and changed to another bag when he felt it was less than half full.

"If potato seeds were worth the price of silver, then all of us farmers would become rich, haha~"

"I haven't finished loading it yet. Why did I change the bag?"

"You can carry this bag later, and I'll carry the heavy one."

After loading all the things, the two of them picked up the bags and hurried back the way they came.

After resting all afternoon, in the evening, after dinner, the young couple closed the doors and windows in the westernmost room, and began to count the day's harvest under the dim light.

“There are so many people during the day, but now that it’s dark, it’s just the right time to take stock.”

Wang Xiuxiu whispered with excitement in her tone.

There was half a basin of warm water next to it, splash! I dipped a towel into the water, twisted it, and started wiping the gold bars one by one.

Xu Dahai sat next to him and wiped the silver ingots and silver cakes with another towel.

"Well, let's weigh them later to see how much gold and silver there are, and finally bury them all under the cellar."

"Hey, there's also a Jade Buddha inlaid with gold and jade. Look, it's quite beautiful."

"Yeah, there are these gold necklaces, gold rings and gold bracelets."

About half an hour later, the cleaning was completed, and Xu Dahai brought the scale again.

“500 small yellow croakers, 100 large yellow croakers, and 21 kilograms and 3 taels of gold bracelets, gold necklaces, gold rings, etc.

There are 102 and a half kilograms of silver cakes, silver ingots, etc. "

"Is this a big yellow croaker? It's so beautiful." Wang Xiuxiu picked up a large gold bar, her eyes full of novelty and couldn't put it down: "How heavy is this one?"

"Our scale is rather crude. It weighs six taels, but to be precise it should be 312.5 grams. It is the standard large yellow croaker forged after the th year of the Republic of China."

A large yellow croaker costs a little more than six taels.

At the same time, ten small yellow croakers were put on the scale together, which was a little over six taels. Xu Dahai knew that these were all standard large and small yellow croakers.

Sudden.

There were footsteps in the yard, rustling~ and soon the door was pushed open:

"Fourth brother, are you at home?"
