Rebirth of the sky-high village girl

Chapter 135 Grandpa’s Compromise (3)
"Grandma, what's in this box?"

Looking at the old wooden box, Liu Ying felt a little awkward in her heart.Suddenly remembering that the grandpa's family used to be the big landlord in Shangyuan Village, a look of surprise flashed across his face. Could it be that the wooden box contained old things secretly kept by the Li family.But is this possible?Back then, the grandfather's family was criticized and all the family property was confiscated, so how could there be any good things left, it should have been looted and smashed.

"Yingying, don't rush to ask, just watch."

Grandma Li didn't answer Liu Ying's question, but pointed to the wooden box on the ground with a mysterious face.Under Liu Ying's gaze, Grandma Li opened the wooden box with the key. Liu Ying unexpectedly discovered that there was only a small wooden box inside the big wooden box.However, unlike the outermost wooden box, this small wooden box looks exquisite.The whole body was pitch black with a little red light, and various vivid patterns were carved on the surface. Grandma Li took out the wooden box, and Liu Ying's keen nose immediately smelled the faint woody fragrance from the box.

This, this is hundreds of years of agarwood, Liu Ying's face was startled, and she stared at the small wooden box in grandma's hand in surprise.This wooden box alone can be sold for a lot of money when it is auctioned, so what is stored in it?
"The eyes are so wide, why, you girl still know the value of this box?" Granny Li joked amusedly when she caught sight of the shocked look on Liu Ying's face.

"Grandma, this is agarwood." They were all close relatives, since they knew about Liu Ying, they didn't hide it, so they just spit out what she knew.

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Grandma Li's eyes lit up in surprise, she looked at Liu Ying with a smile, and kept nodding.

"That's right, I didn't expect you, a child, to really understand these things. Except for this wooden box, the contents inside are all old objects passed down from generation to generation by your grandfather's family. It's a pity that it has been passed down to your grandfather's generation, and there are no descendants left behind. Originally, grandma I thought I would leave it to your mother, but today grandma sees your quick thinking, and her eyes are full of wisdom. Grandma thinks that if this thing is passed on to you, it will definitely be better than passing it on to your mother in the future. "

Grandma Li looked at Liu Ying with a smile, her eyes were full of relief.

"Grandma, Yingying is still young. If you hand this thing over to Yingying, grandma won't be afraid that Yingying will throw it away or give it away." Seeing the light in grandma's eyes, Liu Ying was slightly shocked. a handful.Ginger is still hot and old, did grandma see something?Frowning slightly, Liu Ying looked at Grandma Li thoughtfully.

"You girl, don't fool grandma. Since you know even this agarwood, you must also understand its value. Grandma has watched you grow up since she was a child, and knows that you are a precocious child who cherishes money and knows how to make use of your strengths and avoid weaknesses. This Grandma is very relieved to give things to you. Besides, since things are given to you, they are yours. Grandma will never interfere in what you want to do with them in the future, as long as you think it is right. "

Seeing the doubt in Liu Ying's eyes, Grandma Li had a meaningful smile on her face, shook her head, and opened the wooden box.

Through the dim light, Liu Ying could clearly see what was in the box.At the bottom of the box are several gold bars weighing half a catty, and on top are several complete sets of jade ornaments.Wearing jade for a long time will give birth to spirituality. Liu Ying can see that there is a faint spiritual energy in this jade with just one look.If people often wear these jade ornaments on their bodies, it will be of great benefit to the body.

Grandma Li put the wooden box and all the contents in Liu Ying's hands, and her eyes signaled her to put them away.Liu Ying reached out and touched the jade bracelet inside lightly, and said puzzledly: "Grandma, since there are these good things at home, why didn't grandma sell them for some money. In this way, grandma and mother didn't have to use them so much. Prudish, still living in such an old house.”

"Girl, you are still young and don't understand. At that time, your mother and I were orphans and widowed mothers. There were only two people in our family. If we let the villagers know about the family's wealth. What kind of twisted thoughts have come up, what can your mother and I do?" .Okay, don’t talk about these sad things, be obedient, take care of things, and don’t say anything about your mother. When you grow up, if your brother and your eldest brother marry a wife and life is bad, can you help Just take these things and help them."

Speaking of the sad things back then, Grandma Li's face darkened, and she sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in her tone.Thinking of the other two grandchildren, Grandma Li asked Liu Ying to help her in the future.

Seeing that grandma didn't want to say more, Liu Ying nodded obediently, put away the wooden box, and looked for a chance to put the things in the space again.This thing is priceless, if it is stolen, she will die of pain.After all, it was given by grandma, and she didn't monopolize it. When the elder brother and Tao Tsai grew up, they would be born.She will find another opportunity to give them some things separately. Anyway, she has plenty of space for antiques, so it's not bad.

Liu Ying has never been stingy with her close relatives, let alone her best brother since she was a child.Except for the elder brother's share, if Tao Tsai needs it, it doesn't matter if he also gives her share.

There is no direct country bus between the villages. Early the next morning, Liu Dasheng went to the village street and waited for half an hour.Finally, I got three motorcycles as I wished.Due to the inconvenience of transportation and the large number of family members, Liu Dasheng once again confirmed that it is imperative to buy a car, so as to avoid the difficulty of going out in the future.

Sitting on the motorcycle, Grandma Li looked back reluctantly, the car started slowly, and watched the familiar house gradually disappear in front of her eyes.Grandma Li's eyes became moist in an instant, and her eyes were red, so she stopped looking.I muttered silently in my heart, Li Zhong, take good care of me at home, and when I get old, I will definitely come back to look for you.

"Grandma, don't be too sad, life will get better." Liu Ying shared a motorcycle with Grandma Li, and kept paying attention to her behavior carefully.Catching the moisture in grandma's eyes, Liu Ying's heart tightened, and she comforted her in a low voice.

"Grandma is fine, it's just that the sand got into her eyes." In front of the juniors, Grandma Li always wanted to save face, and she didn't want Liu Ying to see her fragility.Shaking her head, Grandma Li took a deep breath and found an excuse to perfunctory her past.

Liu Ying also knew that grandma didn't want to say more out of face, so she wisely kept her mouth shut, not to expose her obvious lies.Although the country roads are paved with sesame oil, many potholes grow on the road after a long time.Even if the motorcycle is walking on the road, it will inevitably shake for a while.Grandma was old, and her body was weak. When she arrived in Liujia Village, her whole body seemed to collapse, and she squatted on the ground weakly.After resting for half an hour, grandma finally had the strength to walk, but she turned Li Meijuan's distress around.

Fortunately, Liu Ying secretly took another apple for Grandma Li to eat, and Grandma Li got better after that, and her physical strength gradually returned to normal.His eyes are bright, and he walks much more smoothly.

Regarding this, Grandma Li secretly looked at Liu Ying in amazement, wondering where the apple came from, and how she regained her energy so quickly after eating it.If it is said that she bought the apples during the Chinese New Year, Grandma Li wouldn't believe it even if she killed her. It's not like she hasn't eaten them before.Thinking of the surprisingly fresh peaches given by her granddaughter yesterday, Grandma Li's doubts deepened.Seeing her usual, overly beautiful granddaughter, Grandma Li became more and more certain about her guess.
