Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 41 Going to the Town

Mo Qianrui really wanted to kneel down to the god-like grandma. After a long time of daring, grandma didn't understand who she was facing.

However, if you think about it, when Dad married A Niang, Grandma faced mostly the matchmaker herself, and since Grandma was still alive at that time, Grandma was naturally not familiar with the uncle's family.And I heard from A Niang that at that time, the eldest aunt had just given birth to the chicken thief cousin, and it was because of the birth of a son that she was so confident that she insisted on withholding the betrothal gift that Auntie gave at that time.

"Grandma, don't worry about her uncle's business. The food in this house has been sorted out. Do you know when we are going to go out?" My father has always been fond of the uncle's family. It is only from the face of the mother that they are kind to them.Seeing that A Niang had turned against them, Dad immediately forgot about this family, he didn't even bother to think about it.

"Hmph, why don't you let me go quickly?" Grandma stared and scolded very unhappy, "What's the use of my mother giving birth to you, a cowardly boy? Pull you with shit and piss When Ba grows up, why are you rushing away my old lady in such a hurry?"

Grandma's aura was too powerful, she directly bluffed Father to speechless.

Seeing this, Mo Qianrui became a little anxious, and hurriedly opened his mouth to smooth things over: "Grandma, I also want to go to town with you, isn't Dad afraid that we won't be able to make it to town if we go out late?"

"Create, you girl continue to make up movies! Why is such a big person running to the town? Besides, the town is far away from the village, it's true, but no matter how far away, you can still walk for a day?" Grandma turned to Mo Qian Rui rolled his eyes, his words were full of contempt.

"Uh...then there's still so much food?" Mo Qianrui was choked to death, and it took him a long time to find something to say again.

"Can you carry the food? You don't have a lot of meat on your body. Can you carry ten catties?" Grandma continued to be contemptuous, and then seemed to feel that talking to Mo Qianrui was too out of place, and turned to Tell Dad, "By the way, have you hired the ox cart? How about the price? Is it eggs saved or cash?"

Hearing what Grandma said, Father showed a trace of hesitation.

In the rural areas, cash is rarely used, and most of them are exchanged for things.Under normal circumstances, grain and eggs are always hard currency.However, this is the wheat harvest season, and the grain cannot be sold at a high price, so it is reasonable to exchange it with eggs.But unfortunately...

"What's the matter? That black boy doesn't want to accept eggs?" Grandma's complexion sank, and she slapped the chopsticks in her hand on the table, "Hmph, let me tell you!"

Dad was frightened immediately. There are not ordinary people with ox carts in this village, such as the village head's family, such as the second son's family of Li's family.The black boy mentioned by Ah Niai refers to the current village chief.

In the past, when my dad wanted to use an ox cart, he would always hire the village chief. However, the village chief has a good reputation in the village and the price is fair, so he can take any food, vegetables or eggs.No matter what, credit is also acceptable, so there are countless people who hire ox carts from him.

If it was in previous years, Father would have been waiting in line.Whenever it was his turn, he set out for the town.

But who would have thought that Grandma would come back suddenly yesterday?If we followed the instructions of the village chief, we would have to wait at least half a month.

"Mother, that's not the case. Too many people use the village head's ox cart. Didn't I look at you anxiously? No, I borrowed the ox cart from the second son of the Li family." Dad didn't want grandma to follow him The village head's family stepped up and hurried forward to stop him.

"The second child of the Li family? That's fine too. How many eggs are there?"

Mo Qianrui hid her face silently, where is Grandma, can you forget about the eggs?All my old hens have been turned into kebabs for money.

Obviously, it's okay for Mo Qianrui to avoid talking about it, after all, Grandma's attention has never been too much on her.But Father couldn't do it anymore. Facing Grandma's integrated firepower, Father quickly confessed and lenient.Next, Grandma's fury was predictable.

"What? The chickens have their necks wrung to death? That thing that kills thousands of knives! My mother should have wrung their necks off this morning!"

Subconsciously shrinking her neck, Mo Qianrui once again affirmed the fact that Grandma can't be messed with.

Perhaps because the culprit was not in sight, Grandma's anger did not last as long as Mo Qianrui imagined, but quickly calmed down: "Boy, there are no eggs at home, what method do you use?" Hired a bullock cart?"

"Cash, cash." This time it was Dad's turn to shrink his neck. Speaking of which, the family's cash was earned by Mo Qianrui selling kebabs back then.

This answer was somewhat beyond Grandma's expectations. After all, even though she seldom goes home, she still knows what's going on at home.Rural people rarely have cash in their hands, unless the grain is sold after the wheat harvest, but obviously the grain of Mo's family has just been harvested not long ago, and it has been raining heavily for the past few days, so Grandma knows very well that Papa is It is impossible to sell money for money.

Back in the day, the three pennies of money for the bride price for A Niang was only made up by A Nai who sold a lot of family belongings at that time.

"Where did the cash come from?"

Dad didn't dare to hide anything, so he could only tell the truth about Mo Qianrui's idea of ​​making kebabs and selling them for money.Even, Dad even mentioned a few words about Mo Qianrui selling sugar paintings, but didn't specify how much they sold for.

At this moment, Grandma finally took a straight look at Mo Qianrui, making Mo Qianrui feel terrified.

"A girl can still make money from movies? You're going to town with us tomorrow, but also to make money?"

Mo Qianrui's original plan was to go to the town with Grandma to have a look. Whether or not he would make money was one thing, the most important thing was to see the world and buy some condiments.However, just when she was about to speak the truth, she had an idea and followed Grandma's words and said, "Yes, I want to make some sugar paintings for some money, at least I want to earn back the money I paid for the ox cart. "

It was also the last sentence that touched Grandma's heart. She hesitated for a while, but she didn't object. She just ordered everyone to rest early and set off early in the morning.

Finally passed the test and achieved his goal, Mo Qianrui went to sleep refreshed.Fortunately, Mo's house has a lot of rooms, and it's midsummer now. If there is no room or no bedding in winter, asking her to be with grandma... even if it's just the same room, she would be very uncomfortable. So far, She can also like to sleep with Er Ya.

In order to avoid the situation of not being able to wake up late like yesterday, she ran to the space early and wrote a message that was basically equivalent to graffiti with the Four Treasures of the Study that Tang Yanxiu brought in earlier.As for whether Tang Yanxiu can understand it, it can only depend on fate.

The next day, I was woken up before dawn.However, Mo Qianrui was very curious about the town that he had never been to before. When he heard the cry of A Niang outside, he got up quickly, packed himself with the fastest movement, and ran outside to have breakfast. .

At this time, Dad had already gone to the second child of Li's family to pull the ox cart into the yard. Mo Qianrui didn't need to intervene in loading the grain, she just had to pack up what she wanted to bring.

It's a pity that because of the trouble caused by the uncle's family yesterday, and because my father and mother went to organize the food, her cart has not been completed yet.I can only take the utensils I went to the market last time, and the pan is still borrowed from the Li family.Mo Qianrui also promised Liniang who was ill that when she came back from town, she would come to Li's house to cook delicious food for three full days.Le Deliniang stuffed Mo Qianrui with a handful of money and asked her to go to the town to buy a catty of pear syrup, and the rest would be used as errand money.

Although Mo Qianrui didn't like the primitive means of transportation like the ox cart, Mo Qianrui got into the car honestly.Dad walked ahead while pulling the cow, she followed Dad, and Grandma walked last, probably because they were afraid that the baskets of grain piled on the cart would fall.

The speed of the ox cart was very slow, let alone compared with the carriage, it was not as fast as Mo Qianrui.However, after walking for about an hour, she couldn't take it anymore.

Dad couldn't bear Mo Qianrui's suffering, so he stopped the ox cart and carried her to the back of the ox cart, thanks to Mo Qianrui's young age, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sit on it.However, in this way, Mo Qianrui came face to face with the grandma who was walking last, which made her heart tremble.

After much deliberation, Mo Qianrui decided to say a few nice words to ease the awkward atmosphere: "Grandma, why don't you come up and sit?"

"You little girl, you are useless by yourself, and you still think that everyone is as useless as you? Hmph, such a small way, walking slowly, only you, a lazy girl, can't walk!"

Although Mo Qianrui was mentally prepared, she was still very depressed.

Come on, her father is a coward, she was originally a little girl, but now she has become a lazy girl, but she still dare not refute.

"Yo, why is the lazy girl still angry? Tell Grandma, how did you make those sugar paintings?" Grandma asked in a slightly calmer tone after glancing at Mo Qianrui who bowed her head and said nothing.

Mo Qianrui has no concept of keeping secrets of creativity. In fact, of course she still cares about those precious secret recipes in her previous life.

Candy paintings or fruit skewers really don't need to be kept secret.The former is just a different form of square country caramel, and the latter replaces the hawthorn in the candied haws with other fruits. Although there is a little creativity, it does not have any technical content at all.

Thinking that the town is so far away from the village, it is probably impossible for me to come to the town often. If Grandma learns the skill of making sugar, even if she doesn't miss herself, at least she will probably take less things from home Bar?After all, it's a long way off.

Thinking of this, Mo Qianrui didn't keep his secrets anymore, and explained in detail how he tinkered with syrup, then painted sugar paintings and made strings of sugar.

Dad heard it from the front, and he just thought it was her child showing off, and didn't take it seriously at all, but Grandma stared at Mo Qianrui suspiciously.

Mo Qianrui was talking happily, when she was suddenly startled by Grandma's eyes.

Could it be that Grandma saw through her?It shouldn't be, since she traveled through time, she has always behaved with her tail between her legs. Even if she shows off her cooking skills, she still remembers to do a little worse.

The only flaws are probably grapes and sweet potatoes, but this season, there are many wild fruits and vegetables in the corner of the back mountain.She remembered that she had asked Tang Yanxiu before, and Tang Yanxiu also said that even the mountain people could not tell exactly how many kinds of wild fruits and vegetables there are on a mountain rich in products.Besides, Grandma and the original owner haven't seen each other for two years, after all, she shouldn't have seen through it, right?
