"Are you serious?" Wang Guihua looked at Yang Fenglan with surprise.

"Of course it's true!" Yang Fenglan said confidently, then added mysteriously, "Sister-in-law, you have to keep this a secret. I'm only telling you this, so don't tell anyone else. If someone finds out and sneaks into my field, the losses will be huge."

"It's just a dream, I don't think it's possible at all."

"At first I thought so too, but yesterday I was digging for wild vegetables in the field, and guess what? I actually found several copper coins."

"really?"

"What do you think!" Yang Fenglan said with a smirk, looking inscrutable. "Sister-in-law, you mustn't tell anyone, okay? I haven't even told Jingyi and Xiaoyu. Here's what we'll do: you go ahead and water yours, and after I'm done watering mine and find the silver that fell on the ground, I'll go help you."

As they spoke, the two arrived at the riverbank.

Yang Fenglan filled two half-buckets with water, winked at Wang Guihua, and said, "Sister-in-law, I'll go now."

Wang Guihua hurriedly filled two buckets and followed behind, saying, "Fenglan, you helped me water the fields first last time, let me help you water them this time."

"This...isn't that inappropriate?" Yang Fenglan asked with a look of resistance.

“Oh dear, my good sister, are you perhaps afraid that your sister-in-law will find the silver in your field and keep it for herself? Don’t worry, I’m not that kind of person. If she really finds silver, I will definitely tell you.”

“Alright, I trust my sister-in-law’s character.” Yang Fenglan smiled.

"Come on, let's go water your field first." Wang Guihua walked forward impatiently.

Yang Fenglan smiled and obediently followed behind.

Upon arriving at the wheat field, Wang Guihua carried buckets of water and headed into the wheat. Yang Fenglan hurriedly called out to her, "Sister-in-law, you have to start watering from the side."

"Ah, yes, yes," Wang Guihua casually agreed, her eyes darting around.

I wish I had a pair of discerning eyes right now so I could see exactly where the silver had landed.

Yang Fenglan poured two buckets of water, while Wang Guihua was still looking around. She said, "Sister-in-law, what are you standing there for?"

"I was just trying to help you find some money, wasn't I?"

"Shh!" Yang Fenglan shushed her several times. "Sister-in-law, are you afraid others won't hear us? Only the two of us know about the silver in the field. If we don't water the plants, others will immediately recognize that we're looking for something, and if someone tries to steal it..."

"Yes, yes, you've thought of everything." Wang Guihua smiled, picked up the ladle from the bucket, and poured the water evenly down.

While she was watering the plants, Yang Fenglan took out four copper coins from her pocket, tossed one at her feet and another not far from Wang Guihua.

The other two were casually tossed into the wheat field.

"Oh, I found another one!" Yang Fenglan exclaimed exaggeratedly, quickly picking up the copper coin at her feet.

Holding two fingers high up, pointing them at the sun, he grinned from ear to ear, "Sister-in-law, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

"It really is!" It's a pity I didn't find it myself.

Wang Guihua's eyes lit up. Since there really was silver in the land, why didn't she just contract the land herself and all the silver would be hers?

Wang Guihua quickly finished watering the remaining water in the bucket. As she straightened up, she caught a glimpse of a copper coin under the wheat roots in front of her.

She almost pounced on him.

But Yang Fenglan was still there.

"Sister-in-law, let's go. If we linger here any longer, people might get suspicious." Yang Fenglan picked up her carrying pole and turned to leave.

"She's here." Wang Guihua quickly darted into the wheat field, picked up the copper coin, stuffed it into her bosom, and picked up the water bucket to chase after Yang Fenglan.

The two then made another round trip.

Every time she went to the fields, Yang Fenglan would deliberately crane her neck to look under the wheat.

Wang Guihua, fearing that she would be the first to see the silver and pick it up, made an excuse to send her away.
