"Could it be that Village Chief Zhao sent out the whole village overnight to dig out all the gold and fill the land with it?" Uncle Zhou expressed his guess.
"It's impossible. The soil we plowed is very dry and hard. If we plowed it, it wouldn't be like this." Zheng Lu didn't know what went wrong. He wiped his sweat and said, "Uncle Zhou, tell everyone to take a rest. Bar."
"Brother Zheng, come on, drink some ginger soup to ward off the cold."
Seeing Zheng Lu's dejected look, Niu Tangtang gave Niu Xiaowang a look and asked him to bury the last bit of gold in the wasteland.
Always let him see some hope so that he can be motivated.
"Cowgirl, I feel like there's no gold in this place."
"I think it may be that the people who lived here before accidentally dropped the gold on their bodies into the wasteland. After the baptism of wind and rain, the gold fell into pieces. Otherwise, if gold comes out of a place, it means that there must be gold underground. There’s more gold, it’s impossible to dig that deep, and it’s all gone.”
Zheng Lu nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "Miss Niu, your analysis is correct. When I was a child, I heard my elders say that the scholars who live here seem to be loners, but in fact they are very nice people. Occasionally, villagers pass by. , he will lend a helping hand.”
"Then where was he buried after he passed away? Now that we live here, I want to pay homage to him."
"I heard that he had a premonition of his own death and then left. As for where he was buried, no one knows." Zheng Lu looked up at the repaired door, "What happened to you living here? I told dad, and dad said that as long as you don’t cause any damage, you can stay here as long as you want.”
"Then thank your father for me."
"It's me who thanks the cow girl. I won't say any more. I'll go dig some more. The sun is going to set soon." Zheng Lu drank the last sip of ginger soup and turned around to leave.
Niu Tangtang turned his head, looked at Niu Xiaowang who had returned and asked, "Have you buried it?"
"Um."
"Xiao Wang, don't you like talking?" Niu Tangtang realized that this child was very talkative. He could solve the problem with one word and would never say the second word.
Niu Xiaowang frowned and glanced at Niu Tangtang's face with his dark eyes: "Sister Tangtang, don't you like it?"
"I'm just curious. Are you born not to talk, or have you developed it later?" Niu Tangtang held up his chin and looked at Niu Xiaowang. During this period, he fed him various kinds of food, and finally he could see that he had some flesh on his face. In a few years, he will probably grow taller than Xiahou Yu and Chenlang. Who knows how many girls he will charm by then.
"No one talks to me."
"ah?"
Niu Tangtang opened his eyes wide and suddenly reacted: "Yes, you must be detained in the killer organization. No one will talk to you. It's my fault for reminding you of those bad memories."
Niu Xiaowang shook his head: "If I hadn't gone through those hardships, I wouldn't have met Sister Tangtang."
"ha?"
At least this period of time in the small courtyard made Niu Xiaowang feel that all the suffering in the past was worth it.
"No, no, Xiao Wang, your idea is wrong. Although the environment of life is different, as a human being, living in the world is not to endure hardship, but to experience life and feel the seven emotions and six desires. It seems to be dealing with all kinds of people, but in fact, all You're dealing with your own feelings." Seeing Niu Xiaowang's serious face, Niu Tangtang knew that he didn't understand, "Forget it, I won't talk to you about such a profound topic, but you must remember one sentence firmly for me."
"Sister Tangtang, tell me."
"You are the world, and the world is you. In this world, you are your own master!"
Niu Tangtang didn't notice that Xia Houyu was standing behind her, his eyes were deep, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
"Dig it."
Uncle Zhou held up the newly dug gold and ran towards Zheng Lu: "Second Young Master, look and see if this is gold."
"Let me see?"
Zheng Lu got rid of the mud, wiped it back and forth with his sleeves, and after carefully identifying it, he said in surprise: "It's gold. I didn't expect that there is gold in this land. It's great. Let's work harder. If we can dig out a pound Jin Zi, during the Chinese New Year this year, I asked my father to distribute fifty pounds of pork from door to door."
Although the villagers in Yunlai Village have a good income, they have a large family and cannot save much money in a year.
Fifty pounds of pork is undoubtedly a timely help.
Everyone dug more vigorously.
"Sister Tangtang, it's a bit bad for you to be like this."
Niu Tangtang looked up and saw that it was Niu Haohao: "What's wrong with me?"
"My mother said that you must be honest and don't lie to others."
"Then did your mother tell you that people who live in the heat of water are always honest people?"
Mother has never said this before.
Seeing Niu pouting and not saying anything, Niu Tangtang smiled: "Moreover, do you dare to bet that everything you said to me in the past is true?"
The cow bowed its head well.
"Adults say that children don't understand anything and are the least likely to lie. In fact, children are the best at lying." Niu Tangtang stretched out his hand and pinched Niu Haohao's cheek, "Now you eat my food and stay with me. There is no position to educate me, do you understand?"
"Listen, understand."
I always thought Niu Tangtang was joking, but unexpectedly, he kicked the iron plate.
When the sun went down, Zheng Lu was anxious to take the gold he dug home and show it to his father.
Niu Tangtang packed him some vegetables and said goodbye to him.
"Sure enough, there is strength in numbers. I think one day, all the land ahead will be plowed."
At the dinner table, Niu Tangtang said slightly excitedly: "When the time comes, make a good plan about what crops to grow in the fields."
Xia Houyu didn't answer. He was still thinking about what Niu Tangtang and Niu Xiaowang had said to each other in the afternoon.
"Xia Houyu, you are so silent tonight, what's the matter?"
"Oh, it's okay." Xia Houyu looked up and met Niu Tangtang's confused eyes, and smiled dryly, "I was just thinking about what we can do in the future."
"Do you even need to think about it? Of course it's farming. I can think of a plan to ask them to help me plow the land. But in the subsequent planting, weeding and harvesting, I will definitely need your help. Let's work together and work hard together to make it big. Strong, isn't it?" Niu Tangtang bumped Xia Houyu's elbow and said, "Cheer up, even if you want to avenge your family, you have to solve the problem of food and clothing, and then think about the follow-up matters."
"Yes, what you said makes sense, cowgirl."
Looking at the energetic Niu Tangtang, Xia Houyu decided not to talk about his bad things. It had nothing to do with her in the first place, so why did he involve her?
In this way, wouldn't he become an ungrateful bitch?
Shen Lang didn't say anything, but understood his plan from the perspective of his master.
"I'm so tired today. Please clean up the kitchen. I'll go back to my room and go to bed first." Niu Tangtang said this, but in fact he was greedy for fish and planned to go to the space to grill a fish.
As soon as she left, the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became unusual.
