Chapter 370: Chapter 370: Really Dug Out a Treasure

Yang Dong led his family to dig the land collectively, and it wasn’t long before the news spread throughout the entire village, making everyone more convinced of the rumors that there were treasures on that plot of land. At night, everyone went there to dig secretly.

Within a few days, the land had been entirely overturned, and afterward, Yang Ming released a message that there were no treasures in the land, and their family was just digging to bury pickles. He warned that if anyone else went to dig in their land and damaged it, they would have to pay.

The villagers then calmed down and stopped digging. They also lost interest in digging because indeed nothing was dug up.

Yang Dong and a few others continued to dig large holes, waiting to bury the pickles, while Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming brought lunch at noon.

That noon, as soon as Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming arrived, they saw that everyone had stopped digging and was standing above it, looking inside. Xiaoxiao grew curious, wondering if they had truly dug up some treasure?

Without minding Yang Ming carrying the lunch, she ran quickly toward the large hole, shouting as she ran, "What happened? Did you dig up something?"

Upon hearing her shout, everyone turned around. Yang Dong shouted at his third sister-in-law, "Third sister-in-law, we can’t dig this pit anymore."

Xiaoxiao grew even more curious and immediately stepped forward to look into the pit.

My goodness, why is it all slush? How can there be so much slush underground? It can’t be what she was thinking. She didn’t care how dirty the slush was, and jumped right in, "Fourth brother, hand me the shovel."

Everyone didn’t know what this third daughter-in-law wanted to do, but they still handed the shovel over to her.

Xiaoxiao took the shovel and began to dig shovel by shovel, becoming more and more excited. She saw water seeping up from below; they had dug to a water source, and it wasn’t even two meters deep yet.

She was absolutely thrilled, looked up, and yelled excitedly to the people above, "We really did dig up a treasure, we really did!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Dong immediately jumped down too, "Third sister-in-law, where’s the treasure?"

"There it is, we dug up water!" Xiaoxiao pointed excitedly at the oozing water.

But the people listening didn’t look excited at all. They knew this, for they had dug wells before. They just didn’t expect the water source to be higher up this time, and normally they had to dig much deeper to find water.

Afterward, several people pulled Xiaoxiao and Yang Dong up from the pit.

"Husband, hire someone immediately to make this pit bigger and deeper. We are going to make a fortune."

The few people listening were even more confused. How could digging up water make them rich? "Third daughter-in-law, what’s really going on?"

"Dad, the water source is shallow here. Once it’s dug out, maybe we can make a pond, then raise fish. Won’t we make a fortune then? Our county doesn’t have any rivers, and the fish come from other counties."

The people still looked skeptical, "Third daughter-in-law, will there really be water after we finish digging, and will it become a big pond?"

This question really stumped Xiaoxiao. She was just excited about finding the water source and thought they could make a pond to sell fish. The thought of monopolizing the fish market in the whole county made her too excited.

However, she really didn’t know if it could become a pond, and she said somewhat sheepishly, "Actually, I don’t know."

"..." Everyone was quite speechless at her answer. The third daughter-in-law was always like this, and they had gotten used to it.

But Yang Ming said something supportive of his wife, "I think it’s worth a try."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao’s eyes instantly lit up, and a smile appeared on her lips, "Husband."
