"Brother!"

"Stop, what are you doing in such a hurry?" He Ze put a hand on He An's chest.

"It's okay, why did you come back so late?" He An hurriedly stopped the car, curled his lips and said, "My mother is worried about you."

"What's there to worry about? They're in the house?"

He Ze raised his eyebrows and asked, as if thinking of something again, he casually threw a bag of cinnamon in his hand, and He An subconsciously reached out to catch it.

"Brother, this is..." He sniffed it close to his nose, then showed his white teeth, and said in a joyful voice, "Chestnut Cake!"

"You're so greedy!" He Ze took two steps closer, and patted the back of He An's head, "You go back to the room first, I have something to talk to Mom and Dad."

He An wanted to say something more, but when he saw He Ze's serious expression, he nodded obediently, and walked towards his bedroom step by step.

When He Ze entered the door, Li Shi was helping He Youcai to hold his arm. As soon as he saw him, he immediately got up and greeted him, "Are you back? Ah Mu has your dinner warmed up for you! Bring it to you now?"

"No. Mu, I ate when I came back, and I'm not hungry yet." He Ze shook his head and handed over the things in his hand.

"Why do you buy so many things again? How much money do you get?"

Mrs. Li reached out to take it, but her face was full of doubts.After he had put away all his things, He Ze took off the money bag around his waist, and poured a big silver coin and all the broken silver pieces on the table with a clattering sound.

The silver reflected the faint yellow light of the oil lamp, which almost blinded He Youcai and Li's eyes.

"This this……"

They have never seen so much silver in their life!

"Father, Eminem, here was originally 20 taels of silver. I spent a little when I came back, and now there are more than 19 taels of silver. You should collect it first and pay back all the silver owed by the family."

"Ten... How much is 19 taels? 20 taels, you, where did you get so much money!"

He Youcai picked up the dry tobacco on the table and took a few deep puffs, his beating heart calmed down a bit.Seeing him asking questions, He Ze also sat down at the table and told them about the afternoon's affairs in detail.

Seeing that He Ze finished speaking, Father He and Mrs. Li still looked like they saw the sun coming out from the west, "Just, just the potted flowers?"

"Father, don't underestimate the potted flowers. Some flower farmers can't grow such good flowers in their entire lives."

"Then, then you..."

"Your son is blessed, isn't he?" He Ze poured himself a cup of tea, and Gu Long drank it all in one gulp, "Father, didn't Dr. Xu still say that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have future blessings? Green smoke is rising from the grave of our ancestors."

Speaking of the back, he lowered his eyes.

"You bastard! What are you talking about?" He Youcai glanced at He Ze angrily, his doubts faded a little, and he took a sharp puff of the dry cigarette in his hand, "Then...then what do you mean? , those potted flowers in my room with your Eminem, those..."

Hearing his question, Mrs. Li next to him also stared closely at He Ze.

"Father, what are you thinking! How can there be such a good thing?" He Ze frowned, and denied He Youcai's thoughts without hesitation, "Just this pot is already money from the sky, the rest Just some wild flowers."

He was telling the truth, today's pot is already the most precious flower variety among the seeds he bought back that day.

He Youcai and Li Shi were unexpectedly relieved to hear He Ze's words.

"Father, Eminem, it's getting late, I'll go back to bed first, and you guys should go to bed early too."

After explaining, He Ze glanced at the two people who were still full of thoughts, stood up and backed out.

He Youcai wanted to call him, but Li Shi held his arm.When the door was closed again, the room was silent for a moment. He Youcai looked at the uncollected money on the table, and finally couldn't help but said, "My child, am I dreaming?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Li pinched his arm so hard that He Youcai cried out in pain.

"Is it clear now? Are you dreaming?"

"You...you can't be lighter?" He Youcai put the pipe in his hand on the table with a slur, rubbed your own arm, and carefully took the big silver ingot in the middle of the table, " This ingot of silver is ten taels, ten taels! That’s five pieces of land, two big buffaloes, or our new yard?”

"Okay, okay! How dare you think about it, you old man?" Mrs. Li choked on He Youcai, and grabbed the silver with her hand, "The money owed by our family has not been paid yet! My mother's house, There are also a few borrowed households in the village, where do they not need money?"

He Youcai glanced at him, but didn't speak any more, just stared at the money on the table, not knowing what he was thinking.

Mrs. Li wanted to put away the money, but He Youcai stopped her hand just as she was about to touch it, "Wait a minute."

"What's wrong with you?" Mrs. Li sat down.

"In my heart, it's like stepping on a cloud. I'm afraid I'll fall if I'm not careful! You said that 20 taels fell to our house without making a sound. This is 20 taels... ..." He Youcai stroked his full beard, worried.

"... I also feel a little strange," Mrs. Li tugged at the hem of her clothes, and after a long silence before speaking, "Look at Ozawa, when he woke up, his health suddenly recovered, he became sensible, and he could make money. Your injury is about to heal, and life at home is getting better day by day. Last time Xiao Ze told me that he would figure out a way to deal with the money, but I just thought he was talking casually, but now..."

"Daddy, you say..."

Mrs. Li glanced at the silver on the table, hesitated to speak.He Youcai glanced at him determinedly, then stroked his beard again, "I remember clearly, when I left the room today, none of the flowers in the room were in bloom, and it so happened that Ozawa was in a pot this afternoon. Once you go in, you can come out with a pot full of flowers.”

"...What do you mean?" There seemed to be anger on Li's face.

"You said you, where do you want to go? I was just thinking... It wouldn't be like what Ozawa said, our ancestors of the He family opened their eyes, and our family will be lucky from now on, right?"

He Youcai waved his hand, his face seemed to be happy.

"Just put gold on your old He family's face!" Li Shi squinted at him, "But it's still what Doctor Xu said well, maybe our Ozawa's luck will really come! I took him with me when I was young. I went to the temple to calculate it, did you forget? His master said he is blessed, and he is still a great blessing!"

"I think so. It's a blessing, not a curse. Misfortunes and blessings depend on each other. Our family's misfortune is over, and our blessings are here too!" He Youcai put down his pipe, his voice a little excited, "Then let's go to the ancestral hall in the village to pay homage tomorrow. Ancestor, go to the temple to make a wish again, what do you think?"

"Okay, wait a few days, let's collect the millet from those two fields and go."

Li Shi nodded, with a smile on his face.As the sound of silver being bagged dissipated, the room fell silent again.

Outside the house, He Ze glanced inside, and finally walked down the stone steps.

He didn't shy away from Father He and Li Shi too much today, they did it on purpose.

For one thing, this initial silver money always needs a source.If it was a lie, countless lies might be needed to cover it up later, and if it was a leak, the doubts in their hearts would only intensify by then.

Secondly, He Youcai and Li Shi love He Ze deeply, even if they have some doubts in their hearts now, they will never think in a bad direction.

He had only to give them a lead, and they themselves would find good reason to believe him.Even with today's bottom line, it will be easier for them to accept two points for anything in the future.

In this way, he will not be too restrained in what he does in the future.

Fortunately, things are developing as he expected.

After opening the bedroom door, He Ze looked back again before entering the room.The next second, the door of the main room was opened, and Mrs. He and Mrs. Li also came out with an oil lamp.

The moon and stars are sparse, and tomorrow will be another fine weather.

……

After breakfast the next day, He Ze informed Mrs. Li, took two packs of snacks and a pound of pork ribs, and went to Lin's house.

He An wanted to follow, but was pulled back by Mrs. Li.

The sun was rising in the east, the sun was just right, the weeds on both sides of the road were not dewed, and He Ze's trouser legs were wet all the way.

As soon as he entered the gate of Lin's courtyard, he found that someone had arrived earlier than him.At a glance, there was a ladder standing under the eaves, and Xu Qingsheng was standing sideways, bent over, and carefully moving the tiles back and forth on the roof.

This is... repairing the roof?

"Uncle Xu, are the roof tiles enough? There are still some good ones here."

Lin Yu's voice suddenly sounded, and He Ze followed the sound and looked over. He was squatting by the corner, propped on the ground with one hand, and picked out a pile of tiles in front of him with the other, but most of them were broken and disfigured.

Perhaps Xu Qingsheng didn't hear his voice, Lin Yu stood up with the wall supported, dragging the basket in front of him and wanted to go to the ladder.

Before He Ze could put down the things in his hands, he walked up to Lin Yu in a few steps, and scolded him a little loudly, "What are you doing!"

"He Ze, why are you here?" Lin Yu raised his head, with obvious surprise on his face, his eyes swept away and stopped on his hand again, "You still have so many things with you?"

He Ze didn't answer, but frowned, moved all the things in his right hand to his left, and reached out to support Lin Yu's arm, "Let's go, I'll help you in."

"thing……"

"I'll send you there later."

Lin Yu couldn't refuse, so he also took advantage of He Ze's strength to go forward and sit down at the table, "Just come here."

Seeing that he was sitting still, He Ze also put down the things in his hands, looked up at Xu Qingsheng who was on the roof, and then asked, "Is this house leaking?"

"Well," Lin Yu nodded, "Uncle Xu saw the rainwater basin in the room when he came in the morning, and he wanted to go up it no matter what, I couldn't stop him."

"Where's your mother?"

"In the kitchen, when he came out just now, he saw Uncle Xu was angry up there, and then..." Lin Yu pursed his lips and looked up.

"...you sit still."

He Ze was thoughtful, then stood up, picked up the basket on one side and walked under the ladder.Holding the basket in one hand and the ladder in the other, he went up.

"He Ze, be careful!"

Lin Yu came to his senses and called out quickly.Xu Qingsheng on the roof heard the voice, turned his head and saw He Ze, "Boy of the He family? Why are you here?"

"Lin Yu was worried that there were not enough tiles, so he asked me to send this small basket up."

"Okay, come here, be careful." Xu Qingsheng stood up straight and greeted He Ze.

Some tiles on the roof had cracked and needed to be replaced with new ones. Xu Qingsheng had a heavy workload alone, and He Ze simply didn't go down. The two got busy together.

"I said boy from the He family, why are you running here every day? How many times do you think I have seen you here?" Xu Qinghua raised his mouth casually after covering a piece of tile.

"...Twice every three days?" He Ze didn't look up, he just paused, and then laughed, "I see Doctor Xu, you walk much faster than me."

"How can this be the same?" Xu Qingsheng straightened up, hesitating, "I'm because, because..."

"Uncle Xu, He Ze, be careful!"

While the two were talking, Lin Yu looked at them standing on the roof with concern, and couldn't help shouting again.

Xu Qingsheng's voice was interrupted, he turned his head and glanced at Lin Yu in the yard, and then at He Ze, suddenly there was interest in his eyes, "I said boy from the He family, could you be...? "

"What?" He Ze covered a tile.

The author has something to say: Xu Qingsheng (squinting eyes): Do you have the same idea as me?

He Ze (shaking his head): No way, old man.

Author Jun: Daily hahaha~ Good afternoon, babies.

Another: Thank you Ukiyo-e oo, Qinglian Yuzhuo, Tang Lu, my brother, I belong to the mines of bandits and peaches who love watermelons, bow to thank you, [beautiful]
