A good wife and a good mother

Chapter 26 Blackmail in disguise (1)
Mo Dai now has some money in her pocket. The bet she made with the shopkeeper that day made her sell all the things she brought. The two baskets of wild pork are 180 catties in total. One catty is calculated as twice the unit price of fresh pork. It is 520 wen, a total of 520 wen, which is 720 wen when converted into silver taels.Eggs are also calculated at twice the market price, that is, four yuan a piece, or two hundred yuan, and all of them add up to [-] yuan.In addition to the one hundred cash rewarded to her by the housekeeper, her total property is close to eight taels.

With money, Modai wanted to buy more things to go home.

She first went to the rice store and bought 260 catties each of polished rice and white flour, [-] catties of black flour, and some sweet potatoes. The total cost was [-] Wen.Then, Mo Dai went to buy another bolt of light blue muslin, spending [-] Wen, intending to make new clothes for each of Xu Shaolin, the three brothers Mo Wuyun and the two children.After that, Mo Dai went to the place where the piglets were sold, and carefully selected a healthy-looking young boar of about ten catties, which cost three hundred Wen.

Walking on the street with people coming and going, Mo Dai suddenly stopped again, looked up at "Suiji Pastry", and walked straight over.

"Hey, guest officer, how many cakes to choose... Why are you again? Go, go..." The lady proprietress of the pastry shop saw that it was Madai, she waved her sleeves annoyedly to chase away people, but she saw Madai When he held the money in his hand, his eyes were straightened, and the bored expression suddenly turned into a flattering face, "Ahaha, guest officer, what cake do you want to choose?"

"..." Mo Dai didn't bother to pay attention to this person, and directly pointed with her finger, it was the pastry that Mo Wuyun brought back that day.

"Ah, I want this Xiangyun cake! The guest officer really knows how to choose. I think the most popular cake in my pastry shop is this Xiangyun cake. This cake is the favorite of men. It is best to buy it as a gift for my husband-in-law. !" The proprietress kept talking, looking for oil paper and preparing to pack it, "Guest officer, how much do you want?"

Mo Dai thought to herself, the last time she was eaten by Maru Niu seemed to cost four yuan, this time she has to make up for it anyway, "15 yuan."

"Okay, 15 yuan, four yuan a piece, a total of sixty yuan! Come, take it!" The proprietress quickly wrapped the pastry in oiled paper and handed it to Mo Dai.

Modai clicked her tongue secretly, it was really expensive, but luckily she didn't eat it often, and once in a while was nothing.

When Modai handed over the money, the proprietress ushered in another guest. Obviously the proprietress knew this guest, and the flattery was even more disgusting.

"Ah, little boss Bai is here. A few days ago it was Xiangyun Cake. What kind of cake are you eating today?"

"Let's say Xiangyun Cake!" The woman called Little Boss Bai looked very young, about [-] or [-] years old, and her appearance was very handsome.I don't know if it was Modai's illusion, but she always felt that the little boss Bai was stunned when he saw her, and there seemed to be a flash of displeasure in his eyes, although it was only for a moment, but it was caught by Modai.

Mo Dai couldn't help frowning, why, could this person know Mo Daxi?

"Still the same, four yuan?" the proprietress asked.

"Ah, um." Little Boss Bai responded, and then couldn't help but glance at Modai.

"Okay! Here, sixteen coins, you take it!" The proprietress took the copper coin handed over by the little boss Bai, and suddenly asked gossipingly, "Is it still for that handsome young man? "

Boss Bai glanced again at Mo Dai who had already turned to leave, raised his eyebrows, and shouted: "Boss, you've talked too much today!"

"Hehehe, I understand, I understand..." The proprietress covered her mouth and smiled, her expression was so obscene.

Afterwards, Mo Dai went to buy ten vegetable and meat buns for thirty renminbi. After calculating the money in his hand, there were still 770 renminbi, which cost more than one liang of silver in total.Although she was a little bit reluctant, looking at the things in the basket, she felt a little joy in her heart, especially when she thought that the whole family could have a good meal, they might be as stunned as they were when they ate bananas last time When she didn't dare to move her mouth, she smiled lightly.

By the way, after going back, she still distributed some of the pork at home to Sister-in-law Osmanthus' family. Three days ago, Sister-in-law Osmanthus went back alone, which made her feel a little guilty.

While thinking, Mody quickened her pace.Maybe it was because her back was not as heavy as last time, or maybe it was because she had some money in her hand, she was in a good mood, and her walking speed was much faster than when she came here.

After an hour or so, he arrived at the door of the house, just in time to see Mo Wuqing who was about to walk in with a bundle of firewood.

"Ah, Wuqing..." As soon as Mo Dai opened her mouth, Mo Wuqing stepped into the courtyard and ignored her.

Uh, this is... what's going on?
At this time, she saw Mo Wuyun coming out with a basin of water again.

"Wuyun..." Before he finished speaking, a puddle of water was splashed in front of him, and then Mo Wuyun, who had always been respectful in front of him, actually closed the door with a "bang" in front of his face, and then listened. Go inside and "click" on the bolt.

Mo Dai was dumbfounded, this... What is the situation?
Modai stood at the door of the house, with a bamboo basket full of things on her shoulders, and a wicker basket on her arm. The basket was covered with straw, and the moaning of a certain creature could be faintly heard inside.

The sun is gradually turning to the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun stretches Mo Dai's shadow extremely long. The evening wind gusts, blowing the corners of Mo Dai's skirt and hair from time to time, and the old locust tree at the door shakes the dark brown of newly sprouted buds. Branches, there is a little desolation in the silence.

It was the first time for Mo Dai to understand the desolate feeling of being rejected by others, having a home but not being able to return. When she came to buy things and buy things, she was full of enthusiasm for her family, and now she was completely thrown by Mo Wuyun at her feet. The beach water was poured out, and my heart was cold.

Mo Dai pursed her lips, thinking about what she should do next.It's not that she is reluctant to leave this home, it's just that when she first arrived in this strange world, she has a new identity, and the memory of the original owner obtained through the original owner's body, how can these be so easily forgotten?

In the courtyard, Mo Wuqing was chopping firewood silently, Mo Wuyun and Mo Wufeng were embroidering, and Xu Shaolin was sitting on the threshold of the main hall, twisting straw ropes and looking at the two children who were playing.

Maru Niu was lying in the wicker basket by the door of the kitchen, lifting his big ears from time to time, blinking his big black round eyes, looking very innocent and cute.But in fact, it was the first one to know that Mo Dai was back. However, the woman left for three days, and she didn't care about her life at all. It has been so hard these few days, and it is under Mo Wuyun's indifferent eyes every day. Living under the sight of swallowing, there is no way, for the sake of that stutter, it has to endure!
Shaoqing, Xu Shaolin saw that there was no movement outside the gate of the courtyard. This really did not fit Mo Daxi's character. If it had been in the past, that bastard would have kicked the door impatiently.

Xu Shaolin sighed. He thought that Mo Daxi had changed for the better, but he didn't want those appearances that only confuse their family. She actually went to gamble with others, and even took their family's rations to gamble. Disappointed, therefore, he did not stop Mo Wuyun from shutting her out of the courtyard this time.
