Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

In the carriage, Cheng Wan was packing her things. She wanted to wrap all the more valuable items that took up less space into the cut cloth.

In this way, there will be a lot less things on the surface.

"Second brother, remember what we have agreed upon."

Cheng Erping nodded seriously, "Remember it."

The carriage swayed and finally drove into Taohua Village, where the Cheng family lived, before the sun set.

If a carriage passes in front of a house, it will attract the attention of that house.

Someone looked out from the house, "Why is this shopkeeper back at this time?"

Shopkeeper Jia, as this person calls him, is the eldest son of the village chief, and people in the village usually call him this.

No wonder these people think so, in the entire Taohua Village, only Shopkeeper Jia will take a carriage when he returns to the village.

However, some people looked at the carriage with some surprise: "This doesn't look like Shopkeeper Jia's carriage. Did Shopkeeper Jia change the carriage?"

Cheng Erping sat behind the coachman and showed him the way, his hands shaking with excitement.

He didn't expect that he would also get to ride a carriage home one day.

In the fenced yard of the Cheng family.

Cheng Xiaoyu, Cheng Sanping, and Cheng Hua, these three children are using small wooden sticks to pull the chicken manure in the yard onto the leaves.

These chicken manure are excellent fertilizers and should not be wasted at all.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Cheng Erping couldn't wait to jump out. When he saw the people in the courtyard, he shouted: "Xiaoyu! Sanping! Huahua! We are back."

When Mrs. Lin and the others came out of the house, they saw a carriage parked in front of their yard, and the children in the family gathered around the carriage excitedly.

Mrs. Xiao Lin looked at the carriage, then at Cheng Erping, who was waving his arms and jumping around, and asked Mrs. Wang uncertainly: "Sister-in-law, is that Erping?"

When Cheng Erping saw Mrs. Lin and the others standing motionless at the door of the house, he wondered: "Mistress? Mother? Father? Mother? What are you standing there looking at? Why don't you come over?"

Mrs. Xiao Lin slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, my dear mother, you are so even!"

After saying that, Mrs. Xiao Lin raised her feet and ran towards the carriage.

Wang quickly followed and asked Cheng Erping: "Erping, where is Ah Wan?"

Cheng Wan held a backpack in each hand and stuck her head out of the carriage, "Mom, I'm here."

Mrs. Lin's eyes were full of confusion, "You two are..., what is going on?"

"Ouch! This carriage belongs to the Cheng family! Come out and take a look, everyone!"

An aunt who heard the commotion and came out to watch the excitement immediately exclaimed when she saw the carriage parked at the door of Cheng's courtyard.

After all the backpacks and food were unloaded, Cheng Wan checked the carriage one last time to make sure nothing was missing, and then jumped off the carriage.

"Old man, thank you for your hard work. Go back quickly and be careful on the road."

The coachman who was called uncle by Cheng Wan smiled when he heard this, said goodbye to Cheng Wan, and drove away.

As for the money left over from the car rental, Cheng Wan had already settled it before entering the village.

Just like yesterday afternoon, many villagers gathered around the entrance of Cheng's courtyard.

Everyone was talking to each other and it was noisy.

Someone watched the carriage leave and quickly asked Cheng Wan: "Cheng Wan, your second brother just said that you helped an official on the road today, and the official rewarded you five taels of silver? Is it true?"

Cheng Wan smiled happily at everyone, "It's true, Mr. Guan's carriage got stuck in a pit. Everyone knows that I am very strong, so I stepped forward to help Mr. Guan's servants pull the wheels of the carriage out of the pit. come out."

"You just helped pull the carriage, and the official rewarded you with five taels of silver?"

"Yes, the official was kind-hearted. Seeing that my second brother and I were thin and poorly dressed, he gave me five taels of silver and asked us to buy some food and clothing. No, all the things we bought with five taels of silver are here Here it is.”

Everyone had a sour look on their faces, but now many people's eyes were red with jealousy.

"You are so lucky. Why can't I get this good thing?"

"That's five taels of silver, and you two spent it all now?"

"This is too wasteful."

Cheng Wan sighed: "Everyone knows that our family's life is difficult and we lack everything. Now my father and my eldest brother are lying on the bed unable to move. The next summer harvest may be a problem. It's not easy to win five With two taels of silver, I just want to buy some food and other important things to survive."

Cheng Wan spoke miserably, her eyes calmly observing the expressions on everyone's faces.

If a family that has always been at the bottom of their lives suddenly becomes rich, it will definitely lead to disaster. People's jealousy must not be underestimated.

But now that he has money, it would be shameful for Cheng Wan to continue to live a hard life or even eat a little bit of good food.

That won't work either.

This degree must be grasped well.

Everyone dispersed in twos and threes, still talking about this matter when they left.

"Ouch, it hurts, breasts, let go."

Old Mrs. Lin grabbed Cheng Erping's ear and said, "Why don't I hurt you to death! Five taels of silver! You are brave enough to spend it all at once! You even came back in a carriage, why don't you look so beautiful to death!"

Cheng Wan hurried forward to rescue Cheng Erping, "Mistress, I am the one who spent all the money, and I am the one who rented the carriage and came back. My second brother didn't stop me."

Mrs. Lin was so angry that she pointed at Cheng Wan, her mouth trembled again and again, and she said bitterly: "Prodigal son! They are all prodigal sons! Even if you spend half of it and keep half of it! Oh, I'm so angry."

Cheng Wanren asked Mrs. Lin to make a noise. It was best to make it louder so that everyone could hear it, so that it could better support what she said.

The money is gone, and everyone has to buy things.

It is true that many people heard Mrs. Lin's voice and couldn't help but mutter: "It seems that the money is really gone. The Cheng family really can't keep it even if they have money."

Cheng Daniu and Cheng Daping in the back room were already extremely anxious. When they heard someone entering the room, they quickly shouted: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Mrs. Lin said angrily: "Nothing!"

Cheng Erping opened his mouth to say something, but when Cheng Wan didn't speak, he suppressed the words that came to his lips.

Cheng Wan took out pastries and fruit candies from her backpack, and asked Cheng Xiaoyu's three children to take the food to play in the yard. At the same time, she also watched for timely reminders when outsiders came. Then she took out a robe from the bottom of a backpack and looked at it. The people in the house said, "Let's go to my dad's house and show you a treasure."

Cheng Erping looked at everyone in confusion, feeling that everyone was drunk and I was alone.

He couldn't help but raise his chin slightly, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.

Cheng Wan didn't hang everyone up, but entered the back room and opened the robe in front of everyone.

Then under everyone's dull eyes, he took out one silver ingot after another from the bag.

Ten taels of silver ingots were neatly placed on the wooden bench, attracting everyone's attention.

Mrs. Lin's eyes, which used to be somewhat cloudy in the past, were now radiating unprecedented brightness.

She stared straight at the silver ingot, not wanting to blink.

Others reacted in much the same way.

Cheng Erniu stretched out his hand almost uncontrollably, but his hand was slapped down by Mrs. Lin.

Cheng Erniu seemed not to feel the pain. He swallowed and looked up at Cheng Wan and Cheng Erping, "Where did this money come from? Is it real? You two didn't buy fakes to make us happy, right? ?”

Mrs. Lin and the others also raised their heads suddenly, looking at Cheng Wan and Cheng Erping with eager yet hesitant eyes.

Cheng Erping felt uncomfortable being stared at by Mrs. Lin and others. He rubbed his arms and then retorted: "Of course it's true!"

Cheng Erping sounded excited and kept gesticulating in the air with his hands.

He started from the gold necklace and silver bracelet that Cheng Wan picked up on the way there, and continued to the story on the way back. Cheng Wan said that if he met people from the village, he said that the five taels of silver he spent on shopping were all rewarded by the officials. The talent is not over yet.

The room was extremely quiet for a moment, and Cheng Wan and Cheng Erping didn't say anything anymore, waiting for Mrs. Lin and others to come to their senses.

Mrs. Lin's voice was dry, "These are ten real silver ingots, right?"

Cheng Wan nodded, "Yes."

"Then how much money is this in total?"

Cheng Wan's voice was calm and clear, "One hundred taels."

Mrs. Lin plopped down and knelt down on the ground. She looked straight at the silver ingot and muttered unconsciously: "One hundred taels, one hundred taels..."

Xiao Lin stared at the silver ingot and pushed Cheng Erniu with his hand, "Dad, am I dreaming? Please pinch me quickly."

"Ow!"

Xiao Lin covered her waist with a silly smile on her face.
