Siheyuan: Rebirth of Liu Ergou

The sky had darkened, and a gentle afterglow shone through the white paper on the window, onto grandma's face, which was full of traces of time. Grandma sat alone on the kang, with a look of contemplation and expectation in her eyes. At this time, Liu Rui walked into the room gently, and his footsteps were almost absorbed by the thick ground, for fear of disturbing grandma's tranquility.

"Grandma, I still remember the treasure place of the previous dynasty that you mentioned yesterday." Liu Rui sat next to his grandmother, his tone full of curiosity and concern.

Grandma smiled slightly, with a hint of mystery in her eyes: "That's an incredible place, hidden in three secret places near Badaling. I want to tell you about the treasures of the Japanese back then. The Japanese were preparing to move their capital to Fengtian in China, and they hid all the cultural relics, gold ingots, gold utensils, silver ingots and silver coins they looted in the mountains near Fengtian."

Liu Rui was stunned, and an indescribable excitement surged in his heart. He followed his grandmother's instructions and went to the three treasure sites in Badaling first. He had quietly put two treasures into his own space, but he hesitated about the remaining one. It was a treasure house with more than 2000 tons of gold and countless silver ingots and silver coins. He chose to leave it and did not move a single bit.

Afterwards, Liu Rui embarked on a journey to Fengtian. He climbed onto the train, and after many hardships, he finally collected the treasures there into his own space. More than a month later, he returned home with a full load.

"Grandma, the things are well hidden. You can take them out later." Liu Rui said softly while sitting next to his grandmother. He didn't dare to tell his grandmother the truth, fearing that she would worry. But he had an idea in his mind, which was to donate the greatest treasure to the country.

"Grandma, I want to tell the country about a gold treasure in Badaling." Liu Rui said with courage.

After hearing this, grandma was silent for a while, then nodded slowly: "Rui'er, you did the right thing. That is the country's treasure and should be returned to the country."

So, Liu Rui came to the police station with a nervous mood. He told the police where the treasure was hidden and led them to dig. Sure enough, more than 2000 tons of gold and countless silver ingots and silver coins were dug out one by one and reappeared in the world.

Liu Rui's behavior was appreciated by the old man, who met him personally and wrote a few words for him.

"A family that accumulates good deeds will surely be blessed." The old man said to Liu Rui with a smile, and handed him a piece of calligraphy in person, "This is my blessing to you and your family. I hope you can hang it in your living room and remember it all the time.".

Liu Rui took the calligraphy work, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He looked at the old man gratefully and thanked him repeatedly.

"By the way, how is your family doing?" the old man asked with concern.

Liu Rui answered the old man's questions one by one. When he mentioned that his family still lived in a straw hut, the old man immediately expressed his willingness to help them build a new house. After hearing this, Liu Rui was filled with gratitude.

"And your aunt Liu Ying, I heard that she has been working in another place. I will ask her leader to tell her to go home and spend the New Year with her family." The old man reminded again.

Liu Rui nodded repeatedly, his heart filled with warmth and emotion. He knew that all this was because he made the right choice. He secretly vowed to work harder in the future and make more contributions to the country and his family.

As the sun sets, Liu Rui walks out of the living room with full harvest and blessings. He looks up at the sky, only to see the sunset glowing like fire, illuminating the entire sky red. He can't help but think of his childhood, when the sun sets, his grandmother would always sit in the yard, looking at the sunset glow in the sky, hugging him and telling him stories from the past. Now, his grandmother has grown old and can no longer hug him. But the love and care she left behind will always remain in Liu Rui's heart.

At this wonderful moment, Liu Rui seemed to see his grandmother, who waved to him with a smile, encouraging him to move forward bravely. He took a deep breath, feeling the scent of flowers and grass in the air, and felt particularly comfortable. He knew that his future was full of hope and possibility. And all of this originated from the treasure place of the previous dynasty that his grandmother told him about that evening when the sun was setting.

Liu Rui walked forward with firm steps. He believed that as long as he worked hard and persevered, he would be able to realize his dream.
