The happy little days of the Ye family

Chapter 604 Treasure Hunting in a Small House

Ye Xilin was thinking about going to the county to hunt for treasures, so he got up in the middle of the night to cook pig food.

When Ye Xilin got up to cook pig food, the rest of the Ye family fell asleep in a daze because they were so excited.

The family now has 3 breeding boars and 15 sows giving birth to piglets, a total of 18 breeding pigs.

In addition, there were three litters of piglets that had just been born.

There are three meals a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner, and six pots full of pig food must be eaten at each meal. In order to feed these breeding pigs, Ye Xilin specially built two more stoves.

After the first six pots of pig food were cooked, Ye Xilin took seven or eight large wooden barrels to put them in, and then cooked them for the second time.

When the sky was still gray, the diligent Ye Xilin had already fed all the pigs at home.

At this time, other people in the family were washing up with dark circles under their eyes.

Unstoppable, Mrs. Ye, who gets up early every day, actually got up late.

Old Mrs. Ye didn't care about making breakfast anymore. She cooked half a basket of hard-boiled eggs and hurriedly urged everyone to set off.

Before departure, Ye’s mother carried Xiao Qi to the Wang family to help Grandma Ye take care of her for a day.

Mother Ye originally wanted Ye Qingqing to help take care of Xiao Qi, but thinking that Ye Qingqing was still a child herself, she gave Xiao Qi to Grandma Ye.

Grandma Ye likes Xiao Qi very much and is very happy to see the little guy.

Father Ye drove the donkey cart and happily took his family to the county.

Father Ye, who was driving outside, saw a magpie on the treetops and firmly believed that something happy would happen today.

I will be even more confident about going treasure hunting in the house next time.

Qingsong Academy is on the outskirts of the county. In the past, there was no need to go into the city, but the distance was longer than going to the county.

Although Wang Chunyu's natal village, Wangjia Village, is also on the outskirts of the county, it is not in the same direction as Qingsong Academy. They are one to the south and one to the north, so they are very far apart.

The group of people first came to South Street, where they bought some breakfast and pancakes for lunch, and then went to the newly bought house.

It's not far from the house from South Street. It takes less than a quarter of an hour to drive a donkey cart.

The environment around the house is very good. There are several green hills in the distance, and there is a crystal clear stream not far in front.

There is a small piece of grass in front of the stream. At this time, a few children of four or five years old were flying kites. There was a burst of laughter and it was very lively.

Ye Xilin said with a smile: "Didn't we buy a house in the county? Why does it feel similar to the houses in the village?"

Although the scenery is good, there are many more beautiful scenery in Taohua Village, even better than here.

Spending more than 300 taels of silver in the county to buy a house similar to the one in the village, Ye Xilin felt a bit at a loss no matter what.

Mr. Ye hates that iron cannot become steel, "When I asked you to study more when you were young, you would just doze off all day long. This is called elegance. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand."

"Besides, this is a house near Qingsong Academy. It is for the next generation to study."

"You are useless and can only rely on the next generation." Father Ye looked at Ye Xilin with contempt.

Ye Xilin teased Father Ye with a smile, "Dad, grandpa should have said this to you."

Father Ye was taking out the key to the door. He couldn't bear it any more, so he raised his leg and kicked it. Ye Xilin then obediently closed his mouth.

While Ye's father was opening the door, Ye Xilin looked at the wood on the door boredly.

Why does it seem more familiar the more I look at it? The wood on this door looked a bit like the wood on the door of an old house to Ye Xilin.

Ye Xilin didn't understand the wood material, but when Uncle Tang came to measure the dimensions, Mr. Ye showed him the old wooden door.

I heard that just that door would be worth dozens of taels of silver if it were new.

Mr. Ye originally wanted to use the old wooden door, but the wooden door was old and had some damage on it.

So Mr. Ye asked Uncle Tang to use these woods to make some exquisite ornaments.

These ornaments were eventually placed at Ye Donglin's stall on the pier and sold at a high price.

That batch of wooden ornaments made a total of more than 30 taels of silver.

This gate looks quite new. If it were sold outside, it should be worth 30 taels of silver.

The gate is so valuable, there must be a lot of good stuff inside. Thinking of this, the smile on Ye Xilin's face became even brighter.

After the door is opened, there is a cobbled path from the door to the eaves of the hall.

The yard is full of flowers and plants, and there is also an exquisite little pavilion, which doesn't look like a place to hide things.

After several people locked the door, they quickly went to the hall.

The house looks quite new. From the eaves to the beams in the hall, the best wood is used, and there are some carvings of flowers, plants, birds and animals on it, which looks lifelike.

Ye Mu felt that these carvings looked familiar, some of them looked like the ones she usually used when making embroidery.

With her previous experience of treasure hunting in the old house, Mrs. Ye led her people straight to the largest and most magnificent main room.

The house is very large and divided into two parts: an inner room and an outer room.

There is a small desk and a small bookshelf in the outer room, but the desk and bookshelf have been removed and there is nothing on them.

Ye Xilin looked up and saw that the roof beams were made of the same wood as the door, and were covered with exquisite carvings.

Just by looking at it, you can tell that the owner of this house is very wealthy.

It's a pity that the wardrobe and dressing table in the back room have been moved away by Mr. Xiao in advance.

There was only a set of tables and chairs left in the huge back room, and a big bed.

The back room was a bit crowded with 7 people, and it was difficult to find things when there were more people, so Mrs. Ye divided the people into two groups.

"Fengshou and Donglin, the four of you are looking for them in the outer room, and we'll be looking for the remaining three in the inner room."

Mrs. Ye clapped her hands and said with a smile:

"Rich families wear gold and silver. Even if there are no hidden treasures, the small things that are usually dropped in the corner are still worth a few dollars."

"Be careful when looking, especially the corners. Don't miss any place."

Before Mrs. Ye finished speaking, Ye Xilin couldn't wait to get under the bed.

Seeing this, other people also started to act excitedly.

The bottom of the big bed was very low. Ye Xilin was tall and had a very hard time staying under the bed. He was almost lying on the ground groping for it.

Ye Xilin carefully touched every board and every gap under the bed with his hands.

When Ye Xilin was in the old house, he once found a mezzanine under the bed, and there was another mezzanine inside the mezzanine.

Later, he also built a mezzanine under his bed.

Therefore, Ye Xilin is particularly sensitive to whether there is any abnormality in the wooden board.

After touching it, Ye Xilin found a rather special wooden board.
