Seeing Yun Jianzhou in a better mood, Yun Que'er quickly seized the opportunity.
"Second brother, we're family. You don't really blame us, do you? You were just a bit aggrieved. But next time, please talk to us. We were all so worried about you."
Yun Jianzhou couldn't stand her like this and was tickled into laughter.
He helplessly ruffled Yun Que'er's hair. "Your sweet mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter. What if I'm really angry? What if I just don't want to forgive you guys?"
Yun Que'er knew Yun Jianzhou was joking, but she still cooperated, looking at him longingly.
"Then I'll find a way to make it up to you, second brother."
Yun Jianzhou pretended to think. "Then give me some money. Or gold, silver, or jade."
He leaned back carelessly, propping his head up with both hands.
"They say money is the root of all evil, but who would turn down money?"
Yun Que'er burst into laughter. "Great minds think alike."
She thought for a while. The system was almost repaired by now. Why not draw a lottery to cheer Yun Jianzhou up?
"Second brother, close your eyes."
"What are you up to again, kid? Are you really going to turn into a fairy?"
"Just do as I say." Yun Que'er forcefully covered Yun Jianzhou's eyes.
Seeing the kid so serious, Yun Jianzhou also felt a faint sense of anticipation and obediently closed his eyes.
Yun Que'er fumbled around for a while, staring intently at the screen in front of her.
The pointer slowly came to a stop...
Yun Que'er couldn't help but close her eyes nervously.
This was the first lottery draw since sharing the system. She had no idea what she would get.
After a long while, the system made a ding sound.
Yun Que'er opened her eyes in surprise.
Four... Four - level reward!
Yun Que'er was stunned.
The probability of getting this was not much higher than that of a five - level reward. Even last time when she tricked the village head and the others, she only got a three - level reward.
Yun Que'er was stunned for nearly half a minute and then suddenly came to her senses.
She stared at the gold coin on the ground, which was as big as her palm, speechless.
"Are you done?" Yun Jianzhou asked.
"Done..." Yun Que'er murmured.
Yun Jianzhou opened his eyes curiously. Seeing the thing on the ground, he was also stunned.
"Ah!"
Yun Jianzhou exclaimed excitedly and jumped up.
Yun Que'er quickly covered Yun Jianzhou's eyes. "Don't shout! Be careful not to let others hear!"
Yun Jianzhou quickly shut up and carefully picked up the thing on the ground.
It was heavy and looked solid. It was actually a pure - gold, solid coin.
"Wow, we're rich..."
Like Yun Que'er, Yun Jianzhou didn't know what to do when he saw such a precious thing.
After a long while, Yun Jianzhou asked mechanically.
"Xiao Que'er, how much is this thing worth?"
Yun Que'er estimated in her mind. The price of gold in this era was about 100 to 150 yuan per gram.
She weighed it. The gold coin in her hand was at least half a catty.
That meant...
Yun Que'er made a gesture to Yun Jianzhou.
"More than two hundred?"
Yun Que'er shook her head. "At the very least, it should be worth 2,500 yuan."
Yun Jianzhou was struck like a thunderbolt and almost fell.
They had worked so hard for so long and only had a deposit of three or four hundred yuan. That was why Yun Jianzhou had strongly opposed buying Zhang Yingying's rosewood box today.
Originally, Yun Jianzhou was quite content. After all, their average monthly income was at least twenty or thirty yuan, almost comparable to the monthly salary of a regular worker.
But in front of this gold nugget, it was nothing.
Yun Jianzhou finally got excited. "We're rich... We're really rich!"
Yun Que'er was frightened and quickly held down the excited Yun Jianzhou.
"Second brother, this thing is just a useless lump if we don't sell it."
"Then let's just sell it." Yun Jianzhou said without thinking.
Yun Que'er shook her head seriously.
This was ill - gotten wealth. It had an unknown origin, and Yun Que'er didn't dare to sell it casually.
Their family was always being watched. People would be jealous if they lived a better life. If they suddenly got a fortune, they would be devoured alive!
Although the policy was more relaxed now, human nature didn't change overnight.
That was why Yun Que'er had never dared to hope for a four - level reward before.
Seeing Yun Que'er looking worried, Yun Jianzhou gradually calmed down.
"Let's go home first. We'll discuss it at home."
On the other side, Yun Fujin and the other couldn't find Yun Jianzhou, so they had to go home. They planned to pack up and go to the village head to find Old Liu, who had a tractor, and ask him to help them look for Yun Jianzhou outside the village.
Just as they were about to go out, they ran into Yun Jianzhou and the others who were coming back.
The moment he saw Yun Fujin with a dark face, Yun Jianzhou cowardly hid behind Yun Que'er.
"Oops, oops. Big brother is going to scold me."
Yun Que'er raised her eyebrows.
It was rare to see Yun Jianzhou being so timid. It seemed that Yun Fujin still had some authority.
Seeing Yun Fujin walking towards him step by step, Yun Jianzhou's legs went weak.
"Bi - Bi - Bi - Big brother..."
Yun Jianzhou dodged. "I was wrong. I... I..."
Yun Fujin suddenly hugged Yun Jianzhou. "It's good that you're back."
At that moment, Yun Que'er heard the sob in Yun Fujin's voice.
After being so worried for so long, even though it was a happy ending, he couldn't help but break down.
Hearing Yun Fujin's voice, Yun Jianzhou felt extremely guilty.
"I know I was wrong. Don't cry, big brother. I won't run away randomly again..."
Yun Que'er tugged at Yun Fujin's corner. "Big brother, second brother didn't go far. He just went to mom's grave."
Yun Fujin's eyes turned even redder. He tightly hugged his younger brother's shoulder as if he would disappear in a blink of an eye.
After a long while, he let go of Yun Jianzhou.
"Let's have dinner."
Brothers don't hold grudges overnight.
After the four siblings finished dinner, Yun Que'er took out the gold coin.
Yun Yi's eyes almost popped out. "Xiao Que'er, did you really conjure this up?"
Yun Que'er had none of her previous confidence. She was not interested in the gold coin at all and nodded listlessly.
"Yes."
Yun Fujin was also very shocked, but he had calmed down by now.
"This thing is hard to deal with." Yun Fujin said. "If we take out such a big gold coin, anyone will think we stole it."
That was exactly what Yun Que'er meant. "I'm afraid no one will dare to buy it. If they call the police, we won't be able to explain."
It would be okay if it was just confiscated. They would only lose the money.
But if they were detained, none of them would be in a good situation.
"Let's find a way to deal with it." Yun Fujin said. "Xiao Que'er, do you think it would be better if we break it into smaller pieces?"
