Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 130 Grandma, You Win

After showing off, when she looked at Grandma again, her face was full of astonishment and regret.

There is no way, Grandma has been poor all her life, even when she had the most money on hand, she only had a few pennies. She even got inspiration from Mo Qianrui when she changed iron money into copper coins.It's just that she doesn't have the ability to draw inferences from one instance.

It has been more than two months since the Mo family moved to a new house. Although the daily salary is only 25 Wen, it has been almost half of the time.

And ever since A Niang became pregnant, the job of buying ingredients for the Mo family has fallen to A Nai.With Grandma's stingy personality and her ability to bargain with her, she might be able to get a few pennies a day.

However, Mo Qianrui firmly believes in the saying that when water is clear, there will be no fish, and the daily food cost is actually a bit more.As long as Grandma doesn't change the bad ones for good ones, she won't make a sound.Even if Grandma is really trying to frighten the hawkers at Caishikou, what does it matter to her?

Therefore, at this gross estimate, grandma should have saved two pennies of money.

really……

"You child, why didn't you say so early when you have such a good idea? You, you... oh, I saved two pennies with great difficulty! It took me two months to save, and I counted it. Clearly, there are 130 copper coins and [-] seven big iron coins!"

Mo Qianrui raised his eyebrows: "Hey, didn't I give you five copper coins every two days? Where did the big iron money come from? Besides, how can you save two hundred copper coins in two months? ?”

Grandma's dry howling stopped abruptly in an instant, and she looked at Mo Qianrui in a daze.

What Mo Qianrui said just now was just teasing her, but now that she was overly frightened, she stopped mentioning it immediately: "Forget it, forget it, you should hurry up and exchange this hairpin for money. Third Chuan Have you been there? There are a lot of gold and silver shops and money houses, you can scrape off the copper powder with your fingernails, this is a whole three taels of hairpin, which can be exchanged for three pennies."

Grandma nodded subconsciously, but her feet didn't move.

Seeing this, Mo Qianrui said again: "As for the method of hiding money, I actually have many. The iron money can be exchanged for copper coins, which saves space and weight, and silver and gold are even more convenient. There is a saying that gold is prosperous in troubled times. Jade , Now it was a time of peace and prosperity, but as for jade, firstly, we don’t know how to do it, and secondly, the price is too expensive. Let me say, it’s better for ordinary people to save some money to buy gold. If you save enough in the future, grandma If you don’t have enough money, go buy some gold bracelets, gold hairpins and the like. That’s not food, it’s gone after eating, it’s something you can keep forever.”

"anything else?"

"If you think gold is inconvenient, you can exchange it for silver bills, or simply buy land to buy a house. Go to the silver building and get a hairpin with a hollow in the middle. Whether it's silver bills or land deeds, they are all thin. Paper, rolled into a ball and stuffed into the hollow hairpin, who can know?"

While Mo Qianrui was speaking, Grandma listened carefully, nodding in agreement as she listened.It wasn't until Mo Qianrui said that she had finished speaking that she opened her mouth and said, "You little girl has a lot of eyes. Are you thinking of saving money to exchange for gold jewelry, and prepare a dowry for yourself when you're done? Tsk... Hao Lai is better than your aunt, at least you earned it yourself."

Hearing the first two sentences, Mo Qianrui became angry again, why every time Grandma mentions her, she always emphasizes that she is a little girl?

However, after hearing all the words, she was not angry.

This is also a kind of euphemistic compliment, right?
Forget it, she just pretended that those words above were Grandma, a 50-year-old half-grandmother, who was jealous of her youth.

Although Grandma has many shortcomings, Mo Qianrui has never denied her ability.By noon, Grandma had already tidied up the entire kitchen. Not to mention everything, she had also bought a lot of rice. Even before, she had been questioning Mo Qianrui for wasting oil, but she still bought it back. three jars.That's all, she even ran to find a craftsman to repair the half-collapsed oven.

After Mo Qianrui returned to the kitchen and inspected it, he happily gave it a five-star rating.

Unexpectedly, Grandma would not be sensitive to her compliments, and said bluntly: "I have spent two of the three pennies, what should I do with the rest of the money? I see that there is nothing to buy at home."

Saying so, Grandma didn't take out the money immediately.

Mo Qianrui rolled her eyes in her heart. Although she thought that thrift was a virtue, she didn't appreciate it at all.

In her opinion, the money that should be spent still needs to be spent.It is not advisable to buy some luxury goods or blindly pursue famous brands, and the daily food and drink expenses are absolutely unavoidable.She didn't want to save money after working so hard, but later use the saved money to buy medicine.

"Grandma, tell me that there is nothing to buy at home? Didn't you see my room? And your room, are you sure you can still live in it?"

"Why can't people live in it? Can the little girl demolish the house?"

Speaking of this, Mo Qianrui really wanted to ask: "Why did you sleep yesterday? Lying on the ground?"

The bed boards were smashed through, and I don't know where the little aunt got so much energy and patience.As for the straw mats and quilts on the bed, they were completely gone.

"Erya went to your aunt's house, so I put the planks together and grabbed some dry straw to make do with it."

Once again, Mo Qianrui sincerely praised Grandma for her hard-working spirit, but she didn't want to express her approval at all.

Fu forehead sighed, and Mo Qianrui waved his hand helplessly: "Grandma, hurry up and go to the carpenter to make two beds while it's still early. You don't need to buy straw mats, just go to The cloth shop bought that kind of cheap cotton cloth with little variety, and came back to make mattresses and quilts. The sky is going to be cold."

"No need!" Grandma refused first, then looked at Mo Qianrui, then changed her mind, "Are you afraid of sleeping on the floor? Then I'll make a bed. Otherwise, you and Erya will live with your grandma Wouldn’t it be enough to have one house? Let your daddy lay the floor!”

Dare Daddy was picked up by your old man?
Mo Qianrui really wanted to slap Grandma in the face, but was completely choked by what Grandma muttered next.

"You don't need him to make people right now."

It turns out that Father only has this role in your mind?

Grandma, you won.

Taking a deep breath, Mo Qianrui said expressionlessly: "Go to the carpenter and make two beds. Remember to make one smaller so that you won't be able to fit it into the room. Then go to the cloth shop to buy some cotton cloth. Cotton cloth, and it must be pure cotton cloth without color. Go buy some cotton by the way, and when you come back, you will help make three sets of quilts and pillows."

Seeing that Grandma was about to speak, Mo Qianrui immediately glared at her, resolutely not giving her a chance to speak.

"Don't talk about it first, listen to me! First, my mother is pregnant now. If Er Ya and I live with her, she will inevitably be distracted to take care of us. My father is different. I think my mother should I won't get up in the middle of the night to cover the quilt that Dad kicked off. Second, because of the cold weather, Erya will live in the same room with you in the future, because she often kicks the quilt in the middle of the night. I sleep soundly and always forget In order to take care of her, Grandma, you should be able to take good care of Er Ya."

"you……"

"Shut up! Listen to me! And third, I'm pretty good at cooking, but I can't be seen at sewing. My mother is pregnant now, so she doesn't have to bother sewing Futons, so the three sets of quilts have to be sewed by your own hands. The most important thing is that your wages will increase from 25 yuan a day to [-] yuan a day. The premise is that you have to follow these three things Me! Otherwise, we will pay wages as usual."

The best way to deal with grandma is to talk about money.

People talk about money to hurt their feelings, but on Grandma's side, only when they talk about money can they have feelings.

No matter what the reason or what happened in the first place, as long as it can be equated with money in the end, then with Grandma's temperament, she will compromise in all likelihood.

You can see how much she values ​​money when her little aunt steals two pieces of money and she can't wait to kill someone with a knife.

Mo Qianrui had thought about the wage increase before.At first, she thought of threatening to deduct wages, but after careful consideration, she felt that it was inappropriate.After all, she still wants to rely on grandma to take care of her little aunt in the future.Conversely, it is much milder to threaten not to raise money.

Anyway, with Grandma's temperament, it would be enough to hurt her to death without raising money.

"...Cheng, whatever you say is what you say."

Grandma stood on the spot and choked for a long time, and finally choked out such a sentence.

After saying this, she turned around and went out again.It is easy to buy cotton cloth and cotton, but it takes some effort to make a bed.These days, there are almost no finished beds that collapse, and the buyers tell the size and ask the carpenter to make them.Fortunately, the simplest plank bed is also quick to fight.On the carpenter's side, two or three people, the master and the apprentice, will work together, and it will definitely be done in less than half a day.

However, for the first few days, Mo Qianrui still stayed with Auntie, just because Aunt would tremble when she closed her eyes.Mo Qianrui stayed with her for three full nights before finally calming down her emotions completely.

It's just that, after this, A Niang's body and bones have not been very agile. She had never had morning sickness, but she suddenly lost her appetite for food, and her whole body was listless all day long.

Seeing this, Dad went to invite the doctor to come without saying a word.

Doctor Pian only said that the fetus was gassy, ​​and also said that if it wasn't for A Niang's body being strong enough to rest on someone else's body, the child in her stomach would have died long ago.Just because A Niang is pregnant now, besides the anti-fetal medicine, she can't take more medicines for calming the mind and calming the mind.It can only be recuperated slowly.

Fortunately, although Mo Qianrui was not a medicated diet cook in her previous life, she somehow remembered two medicated diet recipes, both of which were very common warming and tonic medicinal diets, which pregnant women could also eat.The effect is not very obvious, at least one or two months to take effect.However, Mo Qianrui had a lot of patience.

As a result, every day in the kitchen of Mo's house, various scents emerged from the early morning.

This is not the smell of steamed buns that I had every day some time ago, but the smell of all kinds of delicious dishes.

Aunt has no appetite?It doesn't matter, among the dozen or so dishes, there are always one or two that Aniang likes to eat.What do you say about the leftover dishes?casual!Grandpa, grandma, and Erya, aren't these all ready-made trash cans?
The only person in the entire Mo family who allows picky eaters is A Niang. Besides A Niang, anyone who dares to be picky eaters will be scratched to death immediately!

Dissatisfied?

Close the door and let Grandma go!

　What a fool's timing! ! !
　　Luckily I took a peek before bed...
