Han Cheng asked Zhang Hongtu to borrow tools from the army, gave him the spare key of the old house, and asked him to put it in it first.
On Sunday, it is sunny and sunny, and it is advisable to break ground.
Han Cheng explained that he intended to borrow a car from the old man, and planned to bring the whole family back to the old house to dig for gold.
Originally, I wanted to bring the pillars with them, but the old man said that their family knew about this kind of thing.
Zhuzi has always regarded himself as half of the Han family. Anyway, Aunt Su, Uncle Han, and several younger siblings would not hide anything from him. He was a little sad when he heard the word "outsider" from his grandfather. Only now did he realize that no matter how close the relationship was, he and Onigiri were indeed the children of two unrelated families.
"Is Zhuzi a little unhappy?" the old man asked his good grandson.
Zhuzi nodded honestly: "A little bit, grandpa, since I lived in the rice ball house, they all treated me as a family member, and I participated in everything, big or small, except this time."
The old man said: "As you grow older, there will only be more and more such things in the future. Grandpa doesn't mean that you should distance yourself from them. On the contrary, it is precisely for the long-term relationship between our two families that some things should be paid attention to. Properness, avoid suspicion when it is time to avoid suspicion, how many antique calligraphy and paintings in our family, how much gold is handed down from our ancestors At present, apart from me, even your father does not know, and has never shown his eyes in front of outsiders.
It is also thanks to our ancestors that they are low-key, and their lives are simple and economical, so no one doubts them. Although they are all things passed down by our ancestors, they came from the right way, and they did not steal or rob them. Years, how many people have been imprisoned because of this, it is precisely because your parents don't know anything, when our family was slandered, their backs were straight, and they could survive trial after trial with confidence. The grievances are snowed, but if there was a little lack of confidence at the time, our family would have been beaten as a landlord.
You may not understand what I'm telling you now, but you will understand when you grow up a little bit. I don't plan to pass these things through your parents' hands, but directly into your hands when you turn eighteen. Come on, Grandpa believes you can handle it.
Zhuzi, your Uncle Han's family are all good people, and our two families are also honest, but some things that may cause unnecessary trouble are better kept secret. "
Zhuzi nodded heavily: "Grandpa, I know, but no matter what happens in the future, it will not hinder our relationship. They will always be my family."
The old man patted his grandson's head, smiled, and said no more. Only adults can lead by example to raise such a good child.
Han Cheng kept his mind, parked the car in front of Zhang Hongtu's house, and walked a few more steps back to the old house.
The so-called coincidence is not a book, but on the road, I met Jiang Xue, who I hadn't seen in a few years.
Probably people who are engaged in performing arts have deeply understood the way of maintenance. In the past few years, Jiang Xue has not only not aged, but with more fashionable hairstyles and clothes, she looks younger and more beautiful than before.
Jiang Xue probably didn't expect to meet the Han Cheng family here. She smiled relievedly. She was in her thirties. When she smiled, she could still see the wind and frost in the corner of her eyes. Although it was not obvious, the years were still on her face. left traces.
Jiang Xue smiled and greeted generously: "Hancheng, smile, stay safe."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled back: "Comrade Jiang Xue, you are getting younger and more beautiful, and I almost don't recognize you."
Jiang Xue's gaze turned to the four children, and she couldn't help but sigh: "When I watched the children grow up, I was surprised that time flies, and the rice **** have grown into big guys. I almost didn't recognize him. He was not there when I left Qingfeng Town. The Xiaodoubao is high, you were only pregnant at that time, and now you have two children, the time is really fast."
After Jiang Xue left, she cut off all contact with Qingfeng Town, did not have much contact with her family, and no longer paid attention to any news related to Han Cheng. She didn't know that Su Xiaoxiao gave birth to a twin, and she didn't even ask if their family came back to live in the capital.
Small meat buns and small rice dumplings don’t look like the longer they grow. The small meat buns grow faster when they are eaten, especially after going to kindergarten. They are already half a head taller than the small rice dumplings. Now basically no uninformed person will think that they are. twin.
Su Xiaoxiao touched the heads of the two little cubs and said with a smile: "They are twins, the elder brother's name is Xiaoroubao, the younger sister's name is Xiaotangyuan, come here, it's Aunt Jiang, rice ball beanbag, you can't recognize Aunt Jiang Yet?"
The cubs shouted "Aunt Jiang" in unison.
Jiang Xue nodded, and only then did she realize that when she saw her old classmates and friends' family again, that kind of incomprehensible intimacy was something no one else could give. Seeing Su Xiaoxiao's expression, she knew that she was doing well. Happy for them too.
Jiang Xue took out a box of chocolates from what was going to be brought home, and bent over and handed it to Xiao Tangyuan: "I brought back some snacks from the performance before, you can try them."
Xiao Tangyuan looked at her mother, Su smiled and said, "You guys still don't thank Aunt Jiang."
The cubs thanked them in unison, and the sharp-eyed meat bun saw the pattern on the box, and his eyes lit up: "It's chocolate."
Jiang Xue looked at the cute and fleshy child in front of her, and smiled knowingly: "Little Meat Bun is really amazing, it's chocolate."
After all, it is not very familiar, and according to reason, gifts should not be accepted, but it will appear too petty. For Jiang Xue, a box of chocolates is not expensive for the children of old classmates. There is no need to refuse, but it is not suitable for chatting too much. If the topic is too in-depth, a friend who is more familiar can still care about the emotional state of the other party, but the exchange between them is basically a goodbye.
Su Xiaoxiao also generously invited her to come to sit at home, but Jiang Xue declined on the grounds that she went home to visit her mother who was insane.
Just like their respective life trajectories, the process and the end point are never in the same direction.
A few cubs ate chocolate and walked in front, Su Xiaoxiao holding Han Cheng in the back.
"Jiang Xue seems to have changed a lot." Su said with a smile.
Han Cheng said: "People always change, but what other people do has nothing to do with us."
Seeing that Han Cheng didn't want to talk, Su Xiaoxiao didn't continue to talk. He shoved a piece of chocolate into Han Cheng's mouth and tasted one himself: "Jiang Xue knows how to choose, the chocolate in this place is the best."
The cubs divided two pieces each, Su Xiaoxiao and Han Cheng each had three pieces, Xiaoroubao liked chocolate the most, and they ate them up in two seconds, and Xiaodoubao only ate one piece, one of which was held in his hand and reluctant. Eat, go back to the old house and the chocolates are all melted in the palm of your hand.
Xiaodoubao is going to wash his hands, and Xiaoroubao will lick his brother's hand when he grabs it, but the rice ball is disgusting: "Xiaoroubao, can you stop being so disgusting?"
Xiaoroubao puffed out his cheeks and disagreed: "My little brother's hands aren't dirty, so he's not disgusting."
Han Cheng carried the collar of the little brat and lifted it back: "Don't make trouble, there is still one from Mom, you can eat another piece. After eating, take your sister to play on the side, and take good care of your sister."
Xiaoroubao can do anything as long as he has something to eat, and he is not annoyed that Baba lifts his collar and strangles his neck: "Follow my orders, Baba!"
The feng shui pond has not kept fish for decades, and there is no stagnant water at the bottom of the pond, which saves a lot of trouble.
The tools that Zhang Hongtu borrowed are placed on the table in the living room. There are miniature civilian blasting ammunition, large hammers, shovels, saws, and the same kind of impact drills with drill bits that can be plugged into electricity in the 21st century. stuff, looks pretty complete.
Han Cheng put on protective gloves, took out the tools, and said to the rice ball: "Wait a minute, there may be a loud noise. The rice ball will take the younger brother and sister to the door to play, and don't let people approach. When someone asks, they say that the house is remodeled. The front door should be as much as possible. Look closely."
The rice ball knew that it was a big deal, and nodded: "Don't worry, Dad, I won't even put a fly in it."
The rice ball took her sister: "Let's go, let's go outside to play."
Su Xiaoxiao took the blasting ammunition and looked at it again and again: "What is this?"
Han Cheng put the things aside: "It's for blasting, this thing is useless, Zhang Hongtu thought I was blowing up the house."
Su Xiaoxiao thought it was funny at first, but when she stared at the bridge pier, she was a little worried: "This bridge pier is not too thick from the top, but it is really not small when you look down. Can it be broken without blasting it?"
Han Cheng tapped a few times with a big hammer: "Listen to this sound, it's empty, it means that the middle is hollow, and it is basically certain that the gold is in it. I will use a drill to break a little structure first, and then knock it open with a big hammer. , that's how it is, the movement is definitely not small."
Han Cheng knocked again from top to bottom. He felt that only the middle section was hollow, and the top and bottom were solid. The gold should not have filled the entire pier so much. He went to the rear pier and knocked again. Kongxin said to Su Xiaoxiao, "Go to the first room on the right side of the main house and look for my mother's old clothes. If you can carry it, find a few more. The gold is so heavy that you can't lift one when it's full. "
Su Xiaoxiao blinked, is their gold too much to be lifted?
Han Cheng felt amused by her expression, guessed what she was thinking, and leaned down and kissed her on the face: "I don't know how many, maybe not so many, find more to be prepared."
The whole family divides the labor and cooperates, Han Cheng is responsible for smashing the bridge pier, Su Xiaoxiao is responsible for finding the container, and the cubs are responsible for releasing the wind.
As the sound of the drill sounded, the gold mining operation officially started.
It was the first time that Su Xiaoxiao entered Hancheng's parents' room. Although dust had accumulated, the furnishings were neat and elegant, and it could be seen that her mother-in-law was a person who loved life.
Su Xiaoxiao looked around, there were several large cabinets in the room, but he didn't see what Han Cheng said about Yilong.
Su Xiaoxiao opened the closet, and indeed neatly stacked several suitcases similar to those used for luggage in the Republic of China. They were made of leather and looked solid.
There were four in total. Su Xiaoxiao took them out one by one and prepared to wipe the dust on them. The first three were very light. When she got the fourth one, Su Xiaoxiao found that the weight was wrong. Not a lot.
She thought about it, and felt that she should open it one by one and take a look.
The first three were really empty. When the fourth one was opened, Su Xiaoxiao thought that she was dazzled and felt that she was opening it incorrectly. After closing it, she opened it again, realizing that it was true before she started to be dumbfounded...
