Working on cleaning up List Of Shows That Need Summary
I think it was a serialized series, kinda like "Amazing Stories" with the twist ending. Set in the 1800's, a young couple move into a mansion owned by a grumpy old man after hearing rumours about him hiding his fortune somewhere on the property - buried in the fields. They take jobs as maid and butler and while working, search away. Unsuccessful, the husband devises a plan for his wife to become "cozy" with the old, ugly man, against her wishes. At first, she is disgusted, but after a while she begins to enjoy it and slowly starts to pull away from her husband and get closer to the old man. I think her and the old man then decide to leave, leaving the husband all alone. The last scene is him digging in the field, with the background showing numerous holes dug.
