Wu Sinan scoffed at her words, and unexpectedly had the exact same thought as Jiaoniang. Did Jiaoniang really treat him as a playboy who didn't know anything? If there really was such a miraculous treasure in this world, would it be Jiaoniang's turn to search for it?

But other than what Jiaoniang said, Wu Sinan couldn't figure out what Jiaoniang wanted to do either. Could it be that he wanted to borrow his hands to look for something else?

"But my father didn't say it clearly, and I don't know what he's talking about. I originally wanted to give up, but something that happened in the village reminded me of my father." Jiaoniang seemed to be hiding something, his eyes drooped as he fell into deep thought.

"First, a few days ago, in order to celebrate the birth of his son, Wang Lao'er had opened the door to release water, but in the end, he died in the mud of the river on the second day, holding onto a golden brick the size of a brick. From that day on, there was a rumor in the village that Wang Lao'er was kind, and the Dragon King accepted him as his disciple, and the gold was as a form of thanks to his family," Jiaoniang paused for a moment before continuing, "However, a few days ago, when the workers went downstream to pick rocks, they passed by the pond packed by Wang Lao'er, and saw a white figure walking about in the river. The river had been flooded since Wang Lao'er's death, how could a person walk around in the river? Therefore, there was a rumor in the village that Wang Lao'er's ghost was let back by the Dragon King to visit her family. "

Jiaoniang's eyes flashed, "In the beginning, I did not want to believe it either, but since many people in the village had seen it, I started thinking about when my father told me that the Mountain God told him that there were some divine objects in the world. Even Wang Lao'er was taken in by the Dragon King. It must be because of some good fortune, so I wanted to accumulate some good fortune while I was on the road, so that I could live such a life. "

As if he had kept this matter in his heart for a long time, Jiaoniang told her about it all, revealing her true thoughts of cultivating. Wu Sinan had a good relationship with her, but he had never trusted her wholeheartedly, and had even thought that she was a peasant woman with a bit of an idea. Originally, Jiaoniang had never planned to use Wu Sinan to settle this issue, but today, he suddenly thought that the time had come.

Sure enough, Wu Sinan did not keep Wang Lao'er's death in his heart. Instead, he asked Jiaoniang: "You said that Wang Lao'er's corpse had golden bricks in its arms? Is this for real? "

When Jiaoniang nodded his head in confirmation, he kept his fan and laughed loudly. "If this is really a gift from the Dragon King, then what is the point of going this far? It's really interesting, why don't Jiaoniang come with me, and let's go take a look at the golden bricks that the Dragon King gave us? "

Jiaoniang shook her head, "This golden brick is in the hands of Wang Lao'er's widow, we were hastily going to take a look, they even thought we were rich! I'm not going. "

She wanted to stay away from this kind of thing. She wanted to keep a low profile in the village, so how could she take the initiative to get into trouble?

Jiaoniang did not want to go, so Wu Sinan naturally did not force her, and could only call the floating stone in to let him prepare his horse, to ask around in the village about Wang Lao'er's situation, and make the arrangements. When Wu Sinan rode on the white horse, his elegant figure and the white horse seemed to be even more pleasing to the eye.

Watching as the two of them walked far away, Ye Xuan walked behind Jiaoniang and used his long sleeves to cover himself as he squeezed her hand, "Since you have already thought of a way to solve this problem, there's no need to worry so much, just let nature take its course."

Jiaoniang muttered: "I'm just very curious … I'm curious about where the golden brick came from in Wang Lao'er's arms... "

Forget about Wang Lao'er's matter, in the recent days, because there were many people coming and going to and fro to fix the Lu Zaishi family and there were also female servants in the family, Jiaoniang was not able to meet with those men. He was only able to take care of the matters with Ye Xuan and Huang Yi, but even so, being too small in his home was still very uncomfortable.

Jiaoniang's family took up a lot of space, but when he passed it down to the Elementary Scholar, it had already been countless of years of broken houses.

There was a hole in the east wall, and it was made of mud and straw. Ever since Jiaoniang encountered that kind of situation last time, she had found people to raise the walls, but because of the lack of funds, the house did not get renovated. Initially, she had wanted to renovate the house before winter, but when she told Ye Xuan about it, Ye Xuan said that she might as well rebuild the house now.

Jiaoniang thought that was also the case, so he went to talk to the Village Chief again, then he went up the mountain to cut down a few old trees.

The money in Jiaoniang's hands flowed out like water from a river, but recently, his family's income was really low. Jiaoniang was a little worried. This place's consumption rate was simply too low, many people were still lingering around the limit of what could be consumed, unable to find any interest in soap that could make people clean.

Tieh Dan and the Orchid Flower had been selling soap at the entrance of the village for a few days. Those who bought soap were few in number, and they did not earn much silver.

This made Jiaoniang feel very uncomfortable, but thinking about it, if he was unable to eat his fill, how would he have the mood to think of other ways?

"I've had enough! Who doesn't have a difficult time in their family? How could a wife not suffer? But look at her, did she have a hard time? It's not half as hard as mine. Since she came back, she's been lying in bed all day, I've been cooking and washing clothes, I've had to work on the ground all day, I've had to help her with her children, and I'm still carrying on with my own body! If I were to tell you that I should include her more, wouldn't I suffer if she had a bitter life? " After saying that, Chen Liu'er laid on the table and cried. She was originally very thin, but now she was pregnant, and her stomach was so big that it was scary.

Jiaoniang had not seen her for a while, but he had heard of the matters in her house. Lotus and her departure were both carried back to their home, and at that time, Chen Liu'er's heartache for her was sympathy, but the pain and suffering of having the lotus grow weaker had been inflicted on her, and it became the root of their conflict. After all, who would be willing to shoulder the responsibilities that they shouldn't have?

Jiaoniang soothed her back and comforted her in a soft voice: "You're also about to be a mother, how can you ignore your children. No matter how anxious you are, you can't cry like this!"

"Jiaoniang!" Although the 17-18 year old girl was about to become a mother, she still felt wronged when faced with her good friend's consolation. "Do you think I'm that bad? Lotus was indeed very pitiful. If she didn't come back, she might have died there, but these days I've been thinking about … I was thinking if she wasn't brought back... "

If Lotus wasn't brought back, she wouldn't have to work so hard, and would have to be questioned by her mother-in-law and husband. "Lotus is so pitiful, can't you help her? You're also a sister-in-law now. "

Jiaoniang also had a big problem in handling these matters. It was difficult for a clear official to break off a family's business, so no one could assume that it was in the past. But on the matter with Chen Liu'er, there were clearly a lot of problems with the lotus, and now, her parents were pampering her because she was bullied. In the long run, her parents would die sooner or later, so how would she live her next days? Who will take care of the two children? Big brother and sister-in-law weren't parents, so how would they be willing to carry such a heavy burden?

After all, as long as the lotus flower could find something to do and ignite the hope of life, there was still a chance for change.

Back then, when Jiaoniang saw the situation with the lotus, he also had the thought of helping her. Jiaoniang had already had three sisters in front of him, and the youngest was at least six years older than Jiaoniang. It could be said that Jiaoniang was her father's last hope.

After Jiaoniang was born, his hopes completely shattered. Since he could still remember, Jiaoniang had often heard his grandmother scolding her mother, "A hen that can't lay eggs, what use do you have?" After her mother heard this, she did not utter a single word.

Jiaoniang came from the modern world, and her thoughts were very open. Which of the male sons and daughters that were better off were not right with her here, as gender equality was the real thing, many men could even be women, but why was it so difficult to live?

Therefore, he needed help with the lotus flowers.
