Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 42
Just when Mo Qianrui was about to cry with guilt, Grandma finally spoke.

"You little girl, it's okay to be lazy, and you still babble. But I just asked you casually, why are you talking so much? You are lazy, stupid and talkative little girl!"

Mo Qianrui was completely hit. It's a good thing that he wasn't exposed, but you don't have to hit people like that, grandma, do you?Mo Qianrui originally intended to teach Grandma the skills of sugar painting and stringing sugar, but after hearing what Grandma said, she immediately died down.This has nothing to do with stinginess, it's just pure anger.Well, it's her situation that is thankless, right?
All the way without talking, I finally arrived at the town. Dad obviously knew where Grandma lived, so he walked straight forward without asking, but was blocked by Grandma.

"Go and sell some grain first. Your second brother has been working very hard lately, and it takes a lot of paper and ink." Grandma asked Dad to drive the ox cart to the grain store, and Dad looked unhappy , but in the end he didn't dare to open his mouth to refute, so he could only do it honestly.

The grain store is just at the entrance of the town, within a few steps.

Grandma went to the grain store to invite the shopkeeper, while Father and Mo Qianrui stood outside the grain store guarding the ox cart and grain.Not long after, grandma led a middle-aged man with a bloated figure out to look at the grain. I don't know how the two discussed it. Anyway, grandma asked dad to put nearly one third of the grain on the cart They were all unloaded and moved to the grain store, and then the shopkeeper gave the cash to Grandma.

Mo Qianrui didn't look carefully at how much money the shopkeeper gave Grandma, but saw that the money was all yellow and orange, not iron money, but the kind of copper money that was worth ten to ten when I saw Meiniang's husband's dowry last time .

Thinking of Meiniang's dowry, Mo Qianrui suddenly remembered the more than 100 dowry Tang Yanxiu got into the space.If there are copper coins in the dowry, will there be copper coins in the dowry?Although in the ancient costume TV series I watched in my previous life, people used silver and gold very proudly, even a stack of silver bills at hand.But in fact, Mo Qianrui has traveled to the present, and the currency with the largest denomination in circulation is copper coins. She also has gold melon seeds, but unfortunately she can't use them.

It would be easy if there were copper coins in the dowry in the space. Even if the system store did not recognize copper coins, it would be easy for her to exchange copper coins for iron coins.At least it is much easier than exchanging silver and gold for iron money.

Mo Qianrui was so immersed in her own thoughts that she didn't notice that the bullock cart had started. She didn't realize it until Father stopped the bullock cart again and called Mo Qianrui to get down.

Jumping off the bullock cart, he looked up and looked around. The place where they are now is the entrance of an alley. The alley is so narrow that the bullock cart can't get in at all.Grandma had already walked into the alley quickly, while Father didn't move, just standing at the entrance of the alley with Mo Qianrui.

After a while, grandma came over with a few youngsters.Those youngsters were all in their teens to 20 years old. They greeted each other without letting their father do anything, and went into the alley with the grain baskets on their backs.And one of the boys who looked thinner didn't help carry the grain, but walked up to Dad and took the reins of the cow in his hand.

Father greeted him, pulled Mo Qianrui and followed the others into the alley.Mo Qianrui was thinking about the borrowed ox cart, and hurriedly looked back, only to see that the thin boy was already sitting on the ox cart, holding the reins in his hand.

"Father, can the ox cart be left outside? My candy basket is still on it." In fact, what Mo Qianrui originally wanted to say was that if the ox was lost, her family would not be able to afford it.But after thinking about it, it seemed that she didn't trust people when she said that, so she could only drag the topic into her back basket, so that others would think that the child was reluctant to eat that idea.

"It's okay, Dad will take you to meet your relatives, and we'll leave right away."

Grandma turned her head and gave Mo Qianrui another look, but said nothing.

Mo Qianrui hurriedly shut up and lowered her head, pretending to be innocent and harmless, but she secretly looked around from the corner of her eyes.This alley is very narrow, so narrow that two adults would feel crowded walking side by side.Moreover, the alley inside had a lot of forks and twists and turns, and after turning three or four turns in a row, Mo Qianrui had already started to feel dizzy.Although she can't be called a road idiot, she just doesn't have a strong sense of direction, so she quickly grabbed Dad's hand, she didn't want to be a lost child.

Fortunately, although the alley was very winding, it didn't take long before the group of them arrived at their destination.

The gate of the yard is narrower than the alley, and grandma went in first, but the youngsters had to lean sideways to carry food inside, while Mo Qianrui and daddy were the last ones, so they could only retreat to the side and wait slowly. with.

Mo Qianrui looked at the narrow courtyard gate, and couldn't help frowning, feeling a little disappointed.When she entered the courtyard gate, she was even more disappointed.

Originally, after hearing that Grandma's natal family was much richer than Mo's, Mo Qianrui followed with a mood to see the world.As a result, it was obviously very different from what she had imagined.

Aside from other things, the appearance of the house has been settled first. The courtyard is small, almost the size of the main house of the Mo family, and there are only a few rooms in the courtyard, which looks dilapidated and narrow.If we only talk about the yard, the Mo family is much better than here.

Just as Mo Qianrui was looking at the yard, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman walked out from the back room.The reason why she was known to be a woman and not a young girl was because her hair was coiled up, and her demeanor was more mature than that of ordinary young girls.The woman looked pretty good, with big eyes and small mouth, and an awl face, but her eyes were shrewd, and her chin was raised habitually, giving people the feeling that she was too shrewd, even a little mean.

The woman didn't say hello to anyone when she came out, she first looked up and down at the grain that the youngsters brought into the yard, smashed it, and said with a disdainful expression: "Oh, this year's harvest is not very good? Look It’s much less than last year.”

Mo Qianrui complained in his heart, sold one-third of the food, isn't it much less than last year?In fact, strictly speaking, this year's harvest is similar to last year's, and because of Grandma's berserk behavior yesterday, my father and mother pretended to be a little more.

"I sold some grain to buy pens and ink for Shanzi, why do you have any objections?" Grandma was almost at the door of the room next to the courtyard wall, when she heard what the woman said, she immediately replied angrily .

Shanzi is Mo Ershan, father's second brother and Mo Qianrui's little uncle.

After hearing what Grandma said, the woman curled her lips in disdain. Although she didn't reply, it was obvious that she was dissatisfied.

Grandma snorted, and said again: "If you have the time to babble in the yard, why don't you go to the kitchen and make something to eat."

This time the woman couldn't help it: "Oh, do you still want to make food? Our family has eaten breakfast long ago, and we still have a fire at this hour? What a waste of firewood, this town is not comparable to your country, then Even a piece of firewood costs money.”

"You dead woman, tell you to cook a bowl of rice, you can chatter so much, are you so lazy?" Grandma became angry immediately, and instead of going to the house, she rushed directly to the woman.

No, that woman is not easy to get along with, seeing grandma rushing to her, she immediately covered her stomach and yelled out: "Oh, my stomach hurts, it hurts so much, I'm afraid I've moved my fetus, right? "

Mo Qianrui looked over subconsciously, only to find that although the woman was slender, her abdomen was slightly bulging, obviously she was pregnant.

Grandma had already rushed forward, her hands raised high.Hearing what the woman said, she stopped her hands again, and spat bitterly: "You are hypocritical, you! My mother was only ten months pregnant before doing work in the field, and both children were born in the field. of!"

"How can we compare with you, you are used to rough work, we don't have the ability. Father, please help me into the house to rest." The woman proudly raised her head and called out loudly. One sound.

The oldest of the youngsters, ignoring the packing of the food, quickly came over to support the woman, and at the same time shouted at grandma with an unhappy face: "Gu, can't you just say a few words less? My daughter-in-law is pregnant." As he spoke, he helped the woman into the house.

Grandma was so angry that she wanted to rush into the room to continue cursing, but the two little ones had already closed the door, and she was so angry that she simply yelled at the people in the yard.

Soon, the youngsters in the yard scattered, some ran back into the house, and some simply ran out of the yard. After a while, only Mo Qianrui and Dad were left in the yard, standing at the foot of the wall. stared.

"...Not one of them is a good thing! The poor old lady brought you all up, shit and piss, is it easy for you to be an old lady?"

Mo Qianrui dragged her daddy slowly towards the gate of the courtyard. She was sincerely glad that the original owner was not raised by grandma, otherwise she would be so shitty and pissed. .

"Aniang, didn't you go to look for elder brother? Why did you come back so soon? You made me sleep because of the noise!" The door of the room leaning against the courtyard wall was suddenly pushed open, and a sleepy-eyed girl walked out from inside.

The girl was about the same age as Liniang, but she was not as good looking as Liniang at all.With small eyes and a small nose, although it is not ugly, it looks very petty. In addition, it is already high in the sun, and the girl just got up, which is even more unlikable.

You know, this is not Mo Qianrui's previous life. If it was in the previous life, let alone getting up at this time, even if it is three or four o'clock in the afternoon, there are many people who wake up.But right now, even getting up at eight o'clock in the morning is already extremely late.That is to say, a child like Erya just snoozes to sleep and wakes up late occasionally. Usually, people get up as soon as the cock crows. This is converted into the time of the previous life, which is between five and six o'clock.

Like today, because he was going to come to town, Mo Qianrui probably got up at around four o'clock when he got up.Of course, Father and Grandma got up earlier than her.

"You lazy girl who is dying, how late is it, are you still sleeping? Why don't you hurry up and cook for my mother, who has been on the road all morning!"

"Aunt, why are you scolding me again? You scold me when you eat too much, and you scold me when you get up late. You scold me all day long. Do you want to scold me to death to be reconciled?"

"Okay, if I don't scold you, I will beat you to death today!"
