Chapter 29 The Gossip Girl in the Village (2)
Fortunately, they brought it again today, "Brother Mo, if you don't come again, my little shop will be demolished, haha..." Shopkeeper Liu laughed.

Mo Shengming suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and touched the back of his brain: "Shopkeeper Liu, I'm really sorry, something happened at home these two days, so I'm a little busy."

"Hey, it's okay, anyway, it's fine if you delivered it today, hehe..."

"Yeah, shopkeeper Liu, please take a count. These are what I brought. Take a look."

Shopkeeper Liu recruited the waiter in the store to fill out bowls, and counted them one by one. Compared with last time, it was much more, and it happened to be nearly five taels of silver. Shopkeeper Liu simply gave Mo Shengming five taels of silver at once. , Mo Shengming was embarrassed to accept so many, and kept refusing, and finally the shopkeeper Liu was speechless, and issued an ultimatum: "Brother Mo, the extra is a deposit, and if you have these in the future, you give me It’s fine if you send it over.”

Hearing this, Mo Shengming thought it was the same, so he didn't make any excuses immediately, but nodded his head as he agreed, and then he left Liuxianju after saying hello, and walked to the Liangpi stall.

The business of the cold noodle stall is still as good as ever, but there are many stalls imitating this cold noodle these days, but the learning is not very good, and the taste is not as authentic as Mo Shengming's, and the ingredients are not enough, so the taste is far worse , but I can't resist some people who are greedy for cheap to eat, so the business is not bad. Lin has nothing to do when she looks angry, so she can only let them go.

Mo Shengming walked to the stall and immediately joined the Liangpi selling team. This time they brought enough Liangpi, so they sold it until noon. The three of them were too tired to move, and sold the last bowl , I said sorry to those who didn't buy it, and only brought some more tomorrow Yunyun, and then started to pack things.

They were also starving, so they ordered a few bowls of noodles from a nearby noodle stall next to the cold noodle stall, and ate them vigorously. They all hiccupped after eating, and then paid and left.

Lin thought that the flour at home was almost gone, so she took a detour and went to the store where she bought flour before to buy a lot of flour, seasonings and brown rice before leaving.

On the way, Mrs. Lin was smiling all the time because of the exceptionally good business today. Mo Shengming was also very happy when he saw her, but he couldn't help feeling that it had been about half a month since selling Liangpi. A month ago, he was still worrying about his family's livelihood, but he didn't expect that half a month later, he could earn so much a day, but these were all brought by Xiaoxiao, thinking that if these were leaked out, Xiaoxiao would be shocked. He will be picked up by the gods, alas, he will not be able to speak out no matter what.

At this time, Mo Shengming swore silently in his heart that he must protect Xiaoxiao well in this life, not to let anything happen to Xiaoxiao, and not to reveal this secret, otherwise the consequences would really be unbearable for them.

The ox cart slowly returned to the entrance of the village. They got off the cart and paid the fare to the driver, Uncle Huang, before they drove home slowly with these things.

Under the big trees at the head of the village, some women gathered together and chatted. Seeing the three of them come back from the town, and they came back in a bullock cart, I felt a little uncomfortable, so I greeted them from a distance: "Hey, where did Boss Mo and sister-in-law come from? It seems that you came back from the town from the direction you came from? You must have bought a lot of good things! Hehe."

The person who spoke was from Wang Zhili's family in the village. She was very talkative, and chatted with others when they had nothing to do. It was nothing more than talking about the east and the west. As if I've seen it with my own eyes.

Mrs. Lin frowned, knowing that Wang Zhili's family had a broken mouth and no one to guard the door, so she could only slap her horse and say haha: "Oh, isn't this just for ordinary food? Alas, this is borrowed from my natal family. If this family doesn’t buy more money, the whole family will drink the northwest wind, right?”

Wang Zhili's family shrugged and said: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Who in this village doesn't know that you carry things to the town before dawn, and then come back at this hour. Doesn't that look like going to the town to sell things?" , is your family trying to figure out a way to make money? Why don’t you teach us and let us get rich, after all, it’s hard to find jobs at this time.”

Lin's heart became angry when she heard it, and she was very angry. Why should I tell you the method of making money that my family has invented?Besides, I don’t have a good relationship with you, why should I tell you?
No matter how unwilling and displeased he was, he still said: "Oh, brothers and sisters of the Wang family, you don't know, we also went to the mountain to pick some fire-reducing herbs to make herbal tea. They all go out early and come back late, how much money can they make, even my natal family’s debts can’t be repaid, what are you talking about making money, ha ha!”

The members of Wang Zhili's family knew Lin's words were excuses as soon as they heard them, but they couldn't say it out. After all, this method belongs to someone else, and it has nothing to do with him. No matter how much they scolded Lin's stinginess in their hearts, they still had to say: " Hey, that’s right, you are tired too, so I won’t stop you, haha, I’m so sorry for delaying your business!”

He said he was embarrassed, but there was no embarrassment on his face. Looking at Mo Yunfeng, he was a little annoyed. These people usually pretended to be dead and shied away when they asked them for help when they had something to do. It's the best way, just like that fly, it can't be killed even if you slap it.

Lin also followed a few perfunctory words and hurried home, not knowing if Xiaoxiao and the others had eaten, alas, I am not hungry, but I am afraid that I will starve them!

The more Lin thought about it, the faster she walked, and Mo Shengming and Mo Yunfeng behind her were bewildered. Why is this Xiuying (mother) running so fast?There were no wolves chasing after them, but they didn't dare to ask this question, so they had to follow desperately.

Not long after the three of the Lin family left here, Wang Zhili's family started talking to some gossip women in the village, "Unexpectedly, this old Mo is really stingy, and his mouths are so tight that they look like they saw the mouth of a gourd. , I can’t make out any words, and everyone is from the village, so it won’t do anything if they say it, and there are some things that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, so when the time comes, shouldn’t the neighbors help the village?”

"That's right, I feel bored seeing them like that. They seem to be doing it very carefully. It seems like they have a secret recipe for making money." A woman who walked close to Wang Zhili's family said.

"That's right, I couldn't see it for a long time." Another person continued.

"Hey, I've made a lot of money, otherwise, why would it be like this? Isn't it obvious that I look down on us?" Wang Zhili's family continued to talk, but his eyes were wandering, and he was also calculating in his heart. How will she get their way to make money then, hmph, if you dare to look down on me, I will let you all know how powerful I am.
