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

The box was opened, and at the top were three silver notes, a house deed, and two long keys. Underneath the silver notes and house deeds was a box full of large and small silver ingots, bracelets, necklaces, hairpin rings...

"Ouch! Ouch! Mother! This is really... really..."

Mrs. Lin sat cross-legged on the kang, staring straight at the contents of the box. She didn't know what to say for a long time.

"Quickly, point it out, among these three banknotes, which one is worth 10,000 taels?"

Cheng Wan glanced at the three banknotes, picked up one and handed it to Mrs. Lin, "This one, this one is 10,000."

Mrs. Lin's hands were shaking with excitement. She rubbed her palms on her clothes and then carefully took the banknote.

"This...this is ten thousand taels of silver..."

Cheng Wan shook his head, "No."

"Ok?"

Mrs. Lin was confused, how could it not be the case?

"You can't get out 10,000 taels of silver if you give the banknotes to the bank. The bank will charge an exchange fee."

Mrs. Lin rolled her eyes angrily, "How much can we charge for the exchange fee? This is almost equal to ten thousand taels of silver, right?"

Cheng Wan nodded, "Yes."

Mrs. Lin suddenly smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Ten thousand taels! This is ten thousand taels! Mother! I thought I could see two thousand taels of silver notes in this life, it was nothing special, but I didn't expect it, and there are The day I saw ten thousand taels of silver notes!"

Mrs. Lin touched the 10,000 taels of silver notes and felt excited for a while.

"By the way, just the two of us know about these ten thousand taels. Don't tell anyone else in the family, not even your father and mother."

"Ok?"

Cheng Wan looked confused.

Old Mrs. Lin sighed and said sincerely: "I know you are a good person who values ​​friendship and always wants to share it with your family. But listen to me, don't tell them the ten thousand taels. As long as you know, if you tell them, if something happens to you in the future if you don’t protect everything, they will be concerned about the money in your hand."

"Then if you really encounter any difficulties and can solve it with money, you will naturally have to use money to come up with it."

Cheng Wan both values ​​​​and does not value money.

Money is a good thing, it can give her good food, clothing, and housing.

But money is nothing compared to relatives.

Old Mrs. Lin glared, "You're still not convinced when I say you're short-minded! If a family like ours encounters any difficulty, it would require such a large sum of money. In the past, the family was so poor that it was almost impossible to open the pot, and this has happened to us now. The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant!"

"They don't know about this money, so naturally they won't think about it, and they won't think about using money to settle things if something goes wrong. But what if they knew? Just listen to me, and I can't trick you. .”

Cheng Wan looked at Old Mrs. Lin's wrinkled face and her heart softened. She knew that Old Mrs. Lin was really doing it for her own good.

At least at this moment, in Mrs. Lin's heart, her granddaughter's weight has exceeded that of any other member of the family.

"I listen to you."

Mrs. Lin showed a satisfied smile and patted the back of Cheng Wan's hand, "That's right!"

"But tits,"

Cheng Wan's face showed a tangled look, "Just now in the main room, Xiaoyu, Huahua and Yuanyuan heard what I said."

Old Mrs. Lin waved her hand and said nonchalantly: "Oh, don't worry! The three of them can't find out what's in my palm. You just have to explain it every year. I think that child is not ordinary smart."

Cheng Wan burst into laughter.

The way she held her breasts just now was so good, she looked like a female general!

"Nai, there's a house deed here, do you want to see it?"

Mrs. Lin took the house deed and asked, "How much money is this house worth?"

"This is not a matter of money. This house is on Shuoyang City Street. The houses and shops on that street all belong to powerful families."

Old Mrs. Lin was stunned for a long time and murmured: "This Prince Rui... is so generous."

Mrs. Lin lowered her head to look at the two keys in the box and asked Cheng Wan, "Which house do these two keys belong to?"

Cheng Wan nodded, "Shaoqing said that the two-story building has a front entrance and a door on the side that leads directly to the backyard."

Mrs. Lin looked at Cheng Wan and said, "Tomorrow I will go to the city with you!"

Cheng Wan was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's go see what the house in the Prince Rui Prize looks like."

After breakfast the next day, Mrs. Lin told Cheng Daniu and the others to take good care of the house, supervise the men's work, and take time to go to the fields to check the sprouting of beans. She also told Wang, Xiao Lin, and Aunt Cheng to continue to work for Cheng Daping. After making clothes and socks, he got on the carriage and left home for the city with Cheng Wan and the others.

After entering the city, Cheng Wan did not go to Xu Zhinian first, but drove the carriage directly to Zhong Street.

Mrs. Lin opened the car curtain and said, "Wan, do you know which small building it is? Don't make a mistake."

"Isn't it written on the house deed? It can't be wrong. And Shaoqing told me that there is a bookstore opposite the small building and a jewelry shop on the left."

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of a two-story pavilion.

Cheng Wan got down from the front room of the carriage, looked up at the simple and elegant pavilion with flying eaves and green tiles in front of him, and thought to himself: "This is not small..."

"Ah Wan, hurry up and take over Sui Sui."

Cheng Wan turned around, took Gu Yu from Mrs. Lin's hand, and helped Mrs. Lin get out of the carriage.

"Xiaoyu, Huahua, Yuanyuan, be careful."

Everyone got off the carriage. Cheng Wan turned around with Gu Yu in her arms and found Mrs. Lin stiffening with her head raised.

"Milk?"

Mrs. Lin didn't look back, she just replied blankly: "Awan, is this the small building you mentioned? This is bigger than the Yunzhang Building in Mu Shizi's house. How is it smaller?"

"So big and beautiful!"

Cheng Xiaoyu also raised his little head and exclaimed!

Cheng Wan looked around and found a shed on the left side of the pavilion. It was obviously a place where carriages and livestock were parked.

There was no one watching now, so Cheng Wan was worried about leaving the carriage outside like this.

Cheng Wan was just thinking about entering the backyard through the side door and parking the carriage in the backyard when she saw a rich man about forty or fifty years old walking towards them with a smile and walking quickly from the jewelry shop nearby.

"But Miss Cheng?"

Cheng Wan's eyes flashed and she smiled politely, "Who are you?"

"I am the shopkeeper of Liguang Pavilion. You can just call me shopkeeper Hu."

Cheng Wan smiled and nodded, "Shopkeeper Hu."

Shopkeeper Hu smiled so hard that the flesh on his face trembled.

"A young man named Shaoqing came to look for me before. He said that a girl named Cheng will take over the Guxing Building next door in the near future. I can help you if I can. Miss Cheng, if you need anything in the future, If you want to help, just come to me, Lao Hu, next door, I will never refuse if I can help."

Cheng Wan was silent. Seeing the enthusiastic attitude of shopkeeper Hu, he knew that Shaoqing must have promised him some kind of benefit.
