Started as a mute girl? I prospered in the lean years

Chapter 21 Digging someone else’s grave?

Zheng Liniang, who was going to ask the mute girl to help light the fire, saw the mute girl running out in a hurry as if she had been given chicken blood.

"Sister-in-law, I have to go out for something. You ask me to light the fire!"

Zheng Liniang said "Hey" and wanted to ask where she was going, but she saw that the person had disappeared.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing in such a hurry, dumb girl?" He came out after hearing the voice, but he only saw a back figure.

"I didn't say anything. It must be something important." Zheng Liniang was a little worried.

Jiang Erlang said: "Then let me go and have a look. It will save her from not knowing the time and coming back too late."

Zheng Liniang responded, the worry on her face gradually diminishing.

Not long after the mute girl on the other side walked out, she heard Fu Tuan say that Jiang Erlang was following behind her.

Thinking of Jiang Erlang's unusually good mind, she was in trouble.

Fu Tuan couldn't tell clearly, and she didn't know how big the golden knot was, but even if she knew, she wouldn't give all the gold to Gongzhong.

So we still have to get rid of Jiang Erlang.

Seeing that the mute girl was not walking fast, Jiang Erlang was about to follow her, but he saw her suddenly start running, and she was running faster and faster.

This girl!

He immediately gave chase.

But there was too much greenery around, and there were rocks covering the area, so soon he could no longer find anyone.

Holding his knees and taking a breath, Jiang Erlang looked around. This was the only way to go down the mountain, so he decided to wait here.

"How's it going? Are you still following?" the mute girl asked aloud.

In the past half month, she has been running small stoves more and more frequently, and her physical fitness has increased a lot than before. It’s no problem to go up the mountain all day long and run on the mountain.

【No la! 】 Fu Tuan answered while jumping out to show the host the way.

After walking for a long time, the mute girl finally found the place where the golden knot was hidden.

The blessing ball fell on a pile of rocks, [just under these rocks. 】

Dumb girl:······

She suspected that this group was unhappy with her and wanted to tire her to death.

Just as the mute girl was moving stones to dig out golden lumps with a miserable look on her face, Jiang Erlang met the old farmer whom the mute girl had met before when she went down the mountain.

The old farmer was holding a rabbit in his hand and his face was full of joy.

"Grandpa Liu, you are very lucky today!" Jiang Erlang looked at the wild rabbit in Grandpa Liu's hand and said with a smile on his face.

But I was thinking that the rabbits on the mountain were so easy to catch today? It seems that the mute girl also brought one home.

Old Man Liu waved his hand, "Where is it! The mute girl is really lucky! She said there are rabbits there, and there are indeed rabbits there! This rabbit is stupid and squatting on the ground without moving at all. Do you think it's strange?"

He approached Jiang Erlang and asked in a low voice: "Could your mute sister be the reincarnation of the fairy daughter in heaven?"

Jiang Erlang had a lump in his throat and didn't know what to say.

In the end, he just said: "If the mute girl was reincarnated as a fairy daughter, how could she have been bullied before? It's getting late, so you should go home early."

Old man Liu didn't believe what he said, and muttered: "The mute girl was also stupid before. It must be that one of her seven orifices is missing, and the fairy daughter hasn't come yet!"

Jiang Erlang watched Old Liu walk away speechlessly for a long time.

When the mute girl came down the mountain in a dirty look, she saw Jiang Erlang wandering on the path. After being reminded by Fu Tuan, she smiled guiltily and walked forward step by step.

"Second brother, why are you here?" she asked softly.

"What do you think?" Jiang Erlang glanced at her angrily, then frowned and asked, "On you..."

"Second brother, second brother, let's talk about it when we get back." The mute girl pulled Jiang Erlang's sleeve and shook it.

Jiang Erlang pursed his lips and let the mute girl pull him down the mountain.

As soon as the brother and sister got home, they got into Jiang Erlang and Jiang Sanlang's house, not even paying attention to Jiang Sanlang's shouts.

"Tell me, what happened to you today..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Erlang was stunned and stopped.

The mute girl took out one gold ingot and another from the cloth bag Qian Xiuzhu sewed for her.

The last two yellow and chubby gold ingots were neatly placed on the table.

"Where did you come from?" Jiang Erlang's voice became louder because he was too shocked.

"Where did it come from?" Jiang Sanlang leaned against the window to answer, "Mom asked you to eat!"

"I know!" The mute girl shouted at the window.

He lowered his voice and said to Jiang Erlang: "I dug it from the mountain."

Jiang Erlang was silent for a moment, "Did you dig someone else's grave?"

"Second brother, am I that kind of person?" She looked at Jiang Erlang in disbelief, "In the nearby villages, who can put gold in their tombs?"

This answer convinced Jiang Erlang. He looked at the two gold ingots on the table, his throat rolled up and down, and he asked uncertainly: "Tell me and your parents?"

The mute girl nodded heavily.

The two of them walked into the main room together.

"Why are you two so lazy?" Jiang Wei complained, "If you don't come, I won't let you eat."

God knows how painful it is for her to smell the delicious rabbit meat but not be able to eat it!

Jiang Sanlang echoed, "That's right."

Boss Jiang patted Jiang Sanlang on the head, "This rabbit was brought back by the mute girl. You should go catch one and bring it back!"

I only hit him but not Sister Wei, that’s partial!

Jiang Sanlang whispered dissatisfiedly.

"Mute girl, where have you been? Why are you so dirty?" Qian Xiuzhu asked involuntarily.

Only then did everyone realize that the mute girl was not only dirty, but also had some dirt on her face.

"Mom, look!" The mute girl handed the bag to Qian Xiuzhu.

"What makes you so happy..." Qian Xiuzhu asked as he opened the bag. After just one glance at her, she exclaimed and closed the bag suddenly.

She stared at the mute girl with wide eyes, and after a long while, she reached out and pinched Boss Jiang as if in a fugue.

"Ouch!" Boss Jiang immediately cried out in pain, his face turned red with anger, the children were all here, what were they doing!

Seeing that it was not a dream, Qian Xiuzhu thought of something and stuttered: "Where does this come from? Dumb girl, you can't steal or rob! You will be sent to the government..."

"Mom, she dug it in the mountain!" Jiang Erlang explained.

Qian Xiuzhu was stunned and looked at her father-in-law's anxious face, "Dad, take a look."

As she spoke, she poured two golden lumps onto the table.

Everyone felt in a trance, and their eyes seemed to be blinded.

"Is this... is this real gold?" Jiang Sanlang swallowed and reached out to touch it, but Qian Xiuzhu slapped it down.

Old Man Jiang also wanted to ask, but he was the patriarch after all. After the initial excitement passed, he picked up a piece of gold and bit it down.

“Really, it’s gold!”

Everyone looked at the mute girl, but saw that the mute girl was nowhere to be seen.

Boss Jiang asked hurriedly: "Where is the mute girl?"

Everyone who was dazzled by the gold did not answer. Jiang Erlang raised his forehead and said: "Go and clean your hands."

Old Man Jiang was over his excitement and had already calmed down. He called to everyone, "Let's wait for the mute girl to come back and eat first. The kids are all hungry."
