The funeral of the old lady finally came to a close. From the funeral to the burial, the brigade cadres of Zhao Village and Liu Village presided over the entire process, and the militiamen of the two villages maintained order throughout the process.

The coffin made of thousand-year-old ginkgo wood was so heavy that the leaders of the two production brigades actually coordinated six horses to pull the coffin and buried the old lady and the old man in style.

After the funeral, an uncle and two aunts came to Xue Ming's house to make trouble again, demanding the fictitious treasure map.

Of course, Xue Ming was not used to them either. He would beat them once or twice, beating them until they cried.

In the end, the leaders of the County Public Security Bureau personally supported Xue Ming, finally ending the treasure map farce.

Xue Ming was not sad at the funeral. Since his grandmother passed away, he has become more and more indifferent, with no smile on his face at all.

"Wow..." One-year-old Xue Yuan suddenly fell down and cried while playing with his brother-in-law Xue Qing. Han Yourong hurriedly covered his mouth, fearing that the child's cry would affect the man's mood.

"Let him cry, I'm fine." Xue Ming walked out of the hall and went back to the bedroom to light a cigarette. He took two puffs and put it out in the ashtray. After a while, he took another cigarette and put it in his mouth.

Xue Yuan's crying quickly disappeared, and after a while Han Yourong carried him to the bedroom, "Brother, our mother asked you to go to her room."

"Dad, Dad..." Xue Yuan spoke vaguely, staring at Xue Ming with his innocent eyes, and suddenly chuckled twice.

"Will this kid call me daddy?" Xue Ming was stunned for a few seconds and was healed by the child's smile. His mood suddenly became much better, and he clapped his hands and stretched out his hands.

Xue Yuan also stretched out his chubby hands for a hug. Han Yourong hurriedly handed his son over to the man, "Be good, Yuan Yuan, and don't make trouble with Dad."

The child was very obedient in his stepfather's arms. He didn't cry or fuss like a porcelain doll. He called daddy twice vaguely. Xue Ming was in a good mood and carried him to his mother's bedroom.

"Oh, you're coming from afar, let grandma give her a hug." Liu Yuee took out the wooden box from the drawer and gave it to her son, then took her grandson from her son and held her in her arms.

Although Xue Yuan is not his biological grandson, Liu Yue'e loves him very much and takes him out to show off her baby whenever she has time.

"This is something your grandma asked me to give you. Open it and see what it is." After Liu Yue'e finished speaking, she began to tease her grandson. The old and the young got along very harmoniously.

Xue Ming opened the box and found a scroll that looked like a picture scroll, wrapped in a layer of waterproof silk and densely sewn with needle and thread, "What is this?"

"I don't know, your grandma gave this to me the day she bought Millennium Ginseng for her, telling me that I must hand it to you personally and not let me see it." There was a trace of sadness on Liu Yue'e's face.

"She has loved you since you were a child, and has loved you all your life. When you were a child, you went to her house to make a bowl. Not only did she not scold you, but she kept saying that she was safe every year."

Bowls are very valuable items in this era, and children will basically be beaten if they hit a bowl. Xue Ming tried hard to recall it for a long time, but he had no impression at all.

He took out the scissors and cut open the tarpaulin. Inside was a roll of something similar to sheepskin. When he opened the sheepskin, he discovered that it turned out to be a map with routes and lots of calligraphy on it.

Xue Ming studied carefully and quickly recognized that this was a large forest. The small river on the map should be the river in the brown bear's territory.

There is a large mountain along the river to the north. There seems to be a cave on the mountainside, and a large triangle is drawn at the entrance of the cave.

"This looks like a map. Check to see if it's my grandfather's handwriting." Xue Ming showed the sheepskin map to his mother. Could this be the treasure map that his aunts and uncles thought about day and night?

"It's your grandpa's calligraphy." Liu Yue'e suddenly became excited. She locked the door with her child in her arms and closed the curtains. "It turns out that the treasure map is real and the treasure is also real. Go dig for the treasure!"

"What kind of treasure is it?" Xue Ming laughed dumbly. I am indeed my grandma's favorite person.

"I guess it's the gold and silver jewelry confiscated by the Japanese. Your grandfather was captured by the Japanese and worked as a bookkeeper." Liu Yue'e kept telling her son about that history.

The mother and son talked for a long time, and Liu Yue'e had a sneer on her face, "My brothers and sisters didn't get this picture despite all their efforts. They don't deserve it!"

"You're right. If you don't fulfill your filial piety and still want to take advantage of the old man, how can it be such a good thing?" Xue Ming was in a good mood. Every man has a dream of digging for treasure.

"You must not tell anyone about this matter. Anyone I am talking about includes your wife and younger brothers and sisters." Liu Yue'e warned seriously.

"I'm not a three-year-old child, so don't worry." Xue Ming immediately took Dahuang to dig for treasures in the forest. As soon as he went out, he met Gao Laoba, the secretary of the brigade.

"Where are you going, Xiao Xue? The county postman is looking for you." Gao Laoba introduced Xue Ming with a smile.

"You must be Comrade Xue Ming. I have two registered letters from you." The postman said and took out two letters from the bag.

Comrade Xue Ming's signature was written in pen on it. The sender turned out to be the Human Resources Department of the Provincial City Department Store, and it was stamped with the official seal of the department store.

"Congratulations to Comrade Xue Ming for your promotion." The postman knew what kind of letter it was without even reading it. Two members of the Xue family were going to work in the department store in the provincial capital.

Although the salesperson and the postman both belong to the Eighth National Congress, the work salary of the salesperson is much easier than that of the postman. If you want to work as a salesperson in a department store in the provincial capital, you will have to cross a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops.

"Same joy, same joy." Xue Ming quietly took out a red envelope from the space and gave it to him. There was fifty cents in the red envelope.

"Thank you, Comrade Xue, thank you!" the postman happily walked away while pushing his bicycle.

"What kind of letter is this from Xiao Xue? Is there any happy event?" Gao Laoba came over and asked softly.

"It's nothing. I asked a friend to arrange jobs for my mother and sister before. Unexpectedly, they were assigned to work as sales assistants in a department store in the provincial capital." Xue Ming tore open the envelope and read the letter. Sure enough, he asked his mother and sister to go to the department store. Letter of introduction to work.

"Oh my god, you're not happy about such a great thing, oh my god!" Gao Laoba jumped to his feet excitedly after coming back to his senses, "You have brought glory to our brigade again, I will report it to the commune immediately."

After Gao Laoba finished speaking, he turned around and ran away. A mother and daughter from a brigade were spotted by a department store in the provincial capital, which meant that in the future there would be a village chief with two students who were admitted to Qingbei at the same time.

"I exchanged this for two taels of gold. There is nothing to be happy about. But the Zhao family and his son are really capable." Take it slow.

"Good brother, dear brother." Xue Ling happily danced and jumped around her eldest brother.

"This is a great thing, Mom, you will be able to eat commercial food from now on." Han Yourong held Liu Yue'e's arm and shed tears, sincerely happy for her mother-in-law.

Liu Yue'e stared blankly at the letter of introduction with blank eyes. Suddenly her eyes darkened, her whole body trembled and she fainted.
