Chapter 143 The Impoverished Mother-in-Law in the Period Literature 23
When Zhou Fu heard about the treasure, he did not doubt it. After all, there were all kinds of people on the sea, including smugglers, pirates, and even fishermen who were fighting over it. Maybe there was an unexpected fortune hidden there.
The children were out playing and not at home. Zhou Fu took out fifty yuan from where he hid his money, put his hands behind his back and strolled out.
Yun Xi took a look and didn't touch anything since there wasn't much private money.
Not long after, Niu Niu came back with her younger brothers and sisters.
"Grandma, guess what we ate?"
"What did you eat? You didn't even come back for dinner."
Yun Xi took her eyes off the TV and looked at the children dressed in gray. Sanwa and Sanni came over with their little bellies bulging.
Erwa was sweating in front of the fan. He smiled and said, "Granny, it's cold noodles! It's really delicious, 50 cents a piece."
Erni nodded. "Yes, it's made with cucumber shreds, mung bean sprouts, and gluten. It's really delicious."
Sanni nodded, "Delicious!"
Sanwa: "Delicious!"
"It's delicious. I'll go check it out and buy some to put in the refrigerator for dinner." Yun Xi also wanted to eat cold noodles. It was troublesome to make, but otherwise she could eat it every day.
"Come on! Grandma, I'll take you there."
The big egg is very generous.
Yun Xi followed her grandson to the center of the village holding a large basin and saw a man riding a bicycle with a large foam box tied to the back.
"Boss, do you have any cold noodles?"
"Yes, how much do you want? 50 cents a piece."
"Give me fifteen servings, don't mix them. Cut up the cold noodles and vegetables and put them in this bowl. And put the sauce in a separate plastic bag."
"Fifteen? Let me see if I have that many left!"
The young man had a big smile on his face and turned around to cut the cold skin one by one. In the end, there were only fourteen portions left.
"That's fine too."
Yun Xi paid seven yuan, took the cold noodles home and put them in the refrigerator. Although they were not as fresh in the afternoon, they were still delicious.
"Cook millet porridge in the evening, and then eat cold noodles after the millet porridge, otherwise it will make your stomach cold."
Watching TV always feels that time passes so quickly. Soon it was evening. After dinner, Wang Lili went to Yun Xi to talk about something.
Yun Xi, who was about to get up and leave, asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
Wang Lili smiled and said, "Mom, my mother wants to come visit our house and also wants to install a radiator. I don't know much about it. Could you give her some advice when she gets there?"
Yun Xi nodded, "Okay, wait for a bad weather day and ask your mother to come. She's usually busy at home."
"it is good!"
Yun Xi urged them to leave. "Hurry up and go back to rest. Your father and I are going out to do something. We probably won't be back until midnight. Don't worry."
"Mom, what's going on? Is it dangerous?"
"It's not dangerous, don't worry."
As the sky gradually darkened, the setting sun was swallowed by the earth, and the last afterglow on the ground disappeared. Yun Xi and Zhou Fu carried their things and walked towards their own big ship. It was dinner time and there were few people at the dock. After getting on the boat, the two left quietly.
Zhou Fu drove the boat to the place where he caught yellow croaker yesterday relying on his memory and compass.
Yun Xi was chatting with the system and screening the products sold by others in the mall.
"Lucky Squirrel and Treasure Hunting Mouse? Do they really work?"
System: "It's useful. The two together are even more effective. When not in use, just keep them in your mustard space and keep them still."
"I want two high-level invisibility charms. Sure, let's exchange them."
After Yun Xi finished speaking, the system immediately successfully exchanged and a brown little squirrel and a pink treasure-hunting mouse appeared, which were very adorable.
"You two should be smart. Lucky Squirrel will be called Dayun from now on, and Treasure Hunting Mouse will be my second treasure. Don't let anyone catch you, or you'll have to stay in my space forever. It's pitch black and scary."
In response to Yun Xi's intimidation, Dayun licked his paws indifferently. Erbao eagerly stretched out his front paws to grab Yun Xi's clothes, looking at her pitifully.
What happened? Yun Xi was confused.
"Host, it's hungry. Please give it some food."
"Is that so? That's easy!"
Yun Xi went to the cabin to find the bag of food, grabbed a lot of peanuts and beans, and put them in front of the two little animals.
Dayun, with his head held high, stretched out his paw to grab a peanut as if giving alms and ate it slowly. Erbao, on the other hand, was very eager and ate a lot of soybeans first before eating the peanuts.
"Even without those functions, these two little animals look so cute and can be kept as pets."
Dayun seemed to understand. He picked up a few peanuts and turned his back to her, making Yunxi laugh and cry.
At half past ten in the evening, the boat slowly stopped. Zhou Fu came out of the cockpit, holding a bowl of water in his hand. He drank as he said, "We're here. This is the island. Let's go up and take a look."
"Walk."
Yun Xi picked up the shoulder bag and held up the flashlight. There were food and drinks in the bag, but the most important thing was the batteries for the flashlight.
Zhou Fu drank the water in one gulp, grabbed his shoulder bag and hurried to catch up. In the dark night, Dayun and Erbao, who were well fed and well drunk, walked in the shadows in front of them. Yunxi, their master, was bound to them, with an ambiguous connection, and could barely keep up.
In the dark night, the island was like a crawling beast, and Yun Xi and the others were like fleas jumping on it at an extremely fast speed.
Soon Yun Xi followed the two mice to the treasure spot, which was under the only big tree on the island.
"dig!"
Zhou Fu didn't waste any time. He took out a small shovel from his bag and started digging. First it was soft sand, and then a few feet down he encountered hard mud. It was not easy. After twenty minutes he could not dig anymore.
After clearing away the dirt and sand, Zhou Fu carried out a square object and peeled off layer after layer of oilcloth, revealing its true appearance.
"A wooden box? You're so bold, aren't you afraid of it decaying?"
Zhou Fu opened the wooden box easily, and inside was a huge pile of glittering gold jewels.
"All diamonds?"
A hint of disappointment flashed across Yun Xi's eyes.
"Aren't diamonds good? They're very valuable."
"Then you handle it. It's best to sell it in other provinces. Whether it sells well or not, transfer the money to my bank account."
There are no particularly large diamonds in it. The most precious one should be the yellow diamond, and the other white diamonds are just so-so.
"Don't you want to keep some at home? It should be able to maintain its value."
Yun Xi took the yellow diamond and said, "Keep this one. The others are not worth as much as gold."
"It seems you like gold very much."
"Of course. Gold can last forever if stored properly, but pearls will lose their luster and turn gray over time. It's hard to sell gems if you have too many of them."
This is also the reason why Yun Xi has always liked gold. It’s vulgar, so what? She is just a vulgar person.
"Okay, leave it to me. Didn't you say you wanted to buy a house in the capital? I'll take care of it then."
"Housing in the capital is not cheap. I have 300,000 yuan in my savings account now. I don't know how many houses I can buy. I plan to take all the gold and pearls with me during the Chinese New Year and buy two or three houses first."
