Chapter 270 The Secret in Beiquan's Eyes

"What secret?" Yu Hongdou was so amused that she almost couldn't hold back her laughter, and she responded to Yu Zhi in a low voice.

"There is a golden dragon in the well of Beiquanyan." Yu Zhi looked around and almost whispered a jaw-dropping secret.

"?" Yu Hongdou didn't expect the content of the secret to be like this.

One should not easily believe the childish words of a child, but first there was the octagonal nut parts that Brother Suozi salvaged from Taoxi River, and then there was the golden bowl of King Nanquan in the Nanquan well.

Yu Hongdou, who had personally experienced the pearls spitting out of a fish's belly yesterday, couldn't help but think too much at this moment.

"Xiaozhi, tell your aunt, how do you know there is a golden dragon in Beiquan's eyes?" Although it was shameless, Yu Hongdou still decided to ask a few more questions.

Yu Zhi was a little embarrassed by his aunt's question. Yu Hongdou was just about to try harder when Yu Wan, the second of the twin girls who had been playing with her dolls behind them, suddenly spoke up.

"My brother was bullied by Shidun and the others, fell into the water, and almost died~" Yu Wan spoke a little unclearly, but Yu Hongdou heard it clearly.

She looked at Yu Wan in shock, then at Yu Zhi, and seeing that he had his head down and refused to look at her or speak, she knew that this must be true.

Yu Hongdou was angry and distressed: "Xiaozhi, why didn't you come back to find someone who was bullying you? Your grandfather would definitely not let them off if he knew!"

"Third aunt, I'm fine. I got up by myself and beat them." Yu Zhi looked up and smiled, his expression calm and a little proud.

Yu Hongdou sighed, hugged Yu Zhi's tender shoulders and patted him:

"Xiaozhi, you are just a child. There may be many things you don't understand. It doesn't matter. You will have plenty of time to figure it out in the future."

"No matter what, you just need to remember one thing. You are the eldest son and grandson of the Yu family. You can hold your head high and challenge other children in the village. You can bring your family to the door to seek justice."

Without thinking, Yu Hongdou knew why the child was bullied.

Yu Hongdou didn't want to say a word about his biological mother, but the child was truly innocent.

"Third aunt, I understand. My mother has already taught me a lesson and even had a fight with Shidun's mother."

Yu Zhi felt a little embarrassed when talking about this, but the smile on his face clearly showed the word "happy".

"Did your mother win?" Yu Hongdou was unwilling to say more about Liu. This person's existence could not be erased, but the traces could be faded.

"We won. Mom told us that she specifically asked Dad about the acupuncture points and said that if we press here and there, others will lose their strength."

"Isn't it amazing? In the future, I want to be like my father, learn acupuncture points and cure diseases, learn to prepare herbs from my grandfather, make money to support the family, and buy a gold hairpin for my mother."

At this moment, Yu Zhi was just like his name, standing straight with his innocent eyes full of longing and hope.

Yu Hongdou was silent for a moment, then raised her hand and placed it solemnly on his thin shoulder: "Aunt believes that Yu Zhi can do it."

He is indeed a very remarkable woman, and Yu Hongdou's favorability towards this cousin-in-law has really increased.

"Third aunt, there really is a golden dragon in the Beiquanyan well. I put my head in and saw it." After expressing his ideal, Yu Zhi did not forget to emphasize the authenticity of the secret to his aunt.

"Aunt believes in you. Please don't tell anyone else about this, okay? Aunt will send someone to check it out. If there really is a golden dragon, I will exchange it for money and come back to give it to Xiaozhi to spend." Yu Hongdou solemnly promised Xiao Yuzhi.

Of course she would watch it. If she really gained something, she would not take advantage of the child's work in vain. After all, the child almost lost his life to get this secret.

Yu Zhi grinned and didn't say no. This attitude also made Yu Hongdou laugh.

When the aunt and nephew smiled, the twins who had been following their brother and the fat boy with no teeth chewing his feet also laughed.

"Oh~ Did you find money? Why are you laughing so idiotically?" The voice arrived before the person came in, and immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the room, big and small.

"Second sister!" Yu Hongdou knew it was her second cousin who had returned when she heard the voice.

"Hey, I was just saying that. You didn't even come to see me when you came back. It would be nice if you could at least let me know. I can come back earlier to enjoy my life."

Hu Tao walked in at the sound of Yu Hongdou's shouting, and glared at her little cousin in reproach as soon as she entered the door.

"Hehe, didn't I open the slot? I even said I would go back to see you." Yu Hongdou smiled foolishly.

If the two nobles from the Tan family hadn't come to the village to explore, she really wanted to go to the city. The gifts she brought for her second sister hadn't been given away yet.

"I know. I heard that the young master of the Tan family is here again. Why do they like to run to the mountains so much? Are there no mountains in the capital?" Hu Tao just muttered.

It is a good thing that a distinguished person has come. At least it should be of some benefit to the future of the third house, her husband said.

"Haha, maybe the mountains in the capital can only be used to write poems and couplets, the mountains here are really interesting." Yu Hongdou hinted at something but did not elaborate.

Hu Tao didn't ask any more questions, just shook her head and looked at the children in the room.

"Xiaozhi, Xiaoqu, Xiaowan, Xiaoshu, look what Second Aunt has brought you?" Hu Tao put the basket in her hand on the table, lifted the curtain, and began to distribute things.

"Where are the two in your family?" Yu Hongdou looked outside while watching her divide things. It didn't make sense for her to come here without taking care of the children.

"I'm meeting guests outside. My mother will bring it over soon." Hu Tao stuffed two round walnuts into the hands of his cousin.

"Try it. It is said that this walnut comes from the west. The skin is very thin, and the kernel is not as sweet as hickory."

Hu Tao held two walnuts in his hand and squeezed them hard, and the thin skin broke with a "crack".

Yu Hongdou stared at the walnut in her hand for a moment, then looked at Hu Tao's demonstration and her expression became even more stunned.

She didn't know whether walnuts were brought back to the Central Plains from the Western Regions by Zhang Qian, the master of Gourmet Selection, but she had the impression that the paper-shell walnuts had always been a specialty of Turpan.

No, that place should be called the Western Regions now?

"Second sister, where do these walnuts come from?" Yu Hongdou came back to her senses, watched her second sister feed the walnut kernels to the three older children, and started to pinch the walnuts, and asked casually.

"A lot of merchants from the west have passed by these past few days. Your brother-in-law and I bought some of the fresh ones. The village head Duan from your village also bought a lot and said he would give them to you to taste when you return."

Hu Tao took out a handful of dates from the basket. Each of them was as big as an egg, which immediately stunned the three children who had never seen the world.

There were also a lot of raisins, jerky, etc. I also grabbed some walnuts and shared them with the children and adults.

Then he stuffed the basket into the cupboard, sat cross-legged on the kang, and began to prepare to chat with his sister and eat the fresh melon together.

Yu Hongdou just happened to have a lot of anecdotes in her mind, so the two sisters sat face to face and told each other the new stories they had heard with their four children.
