It’s Hard For a Good Wife and Mother

Three days later, at noon.

In the account room, Fang Ling was crackling the beads of the abacus, and the curl at the corner of his mouth never disappeared.

"Shopkeeper, Mo Daxi would like to invite Xio to come home in the next half day, and she is busy greeting guests right now, let the little one come to let you know for her!" A man in a gray sarong with a piece on his shoulder The tall, lanky young woman in the old rag stood outside the door and said.

"Oh? This girl thinks she misses her husband, hehe, that's all, let her go back!" Fang Ling temporarily stopped dialing the abacus beads.

"Hey, little one, go tell her now!"

After the young woman left, Fang Ling picked up the cup of tea at hand and took a sip, recalling the bet she had with Mo Daxi three days ago, she couldn't help shaking her head and chuckling.

The bet she offered that day was naturally very harsh, firstly it was exciting and fun, and secondly she also wanted to see if Mo Daxi had the ability to complete the task.

The business of Fumantang has been very stable. It is not difficult to promote a new pastry, but the difficulty is that this new pastry is called "Jasper Pear Blossom Cake", which sounds very beautiful and elegant, but in fact the appearance does not match the name at all. In fact, the whole thing is a lump of green. It's fine if it's just ugly, but what's even more unbelievable is that this pastry tastes sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, full of five flavors.

From a rational point of view, the bet she made was unfair to Mo Daxi. Because although this pastry is newly launched, it has been on sale for more than a month. Except for the first few times, regular customers ordered it a few times to try it out, and no one will order it at all in the future.

Although no one will order it, this pastry has been mass-produced at a rate of 50 yuan a day. The reason is that this pastry was made by Mrs. Shi's eldest daughter, Shi Lan, when she is free. .

However, under such various unfavorable factors, Mo Daxi successfully completed the task, and even exceeded the task. Who would have thought that this girl would have a wonderful voice, unparalleled momentum and explosive power, and she would speak in a graceful manner, with Braille words, and every sentence speaks to the hearts of others. Her voice seems to be born with a charismatic force, making the listener unable to help but follow her thoughts.

That lump of green pastry tasted messy, but when it came to Mo Daxi, it became a proof of love in a beautiful and touching love story.

The story was about a girl who fell in love with a boy but was opposed by her family. The boy chose to leave, and the girl was stimulated and forgot everything. They met again after many years, the boy became an uncle, and the girl became an aunt. Uncle has been making a kind of pastry that will never be sold. The aunt tasted a piece out of curiosity, and she found it hard to swallow. Just about to spit it out, she heard the uncle say: "This pastry is called Jasper Pear Blossom Cake. That year, In the youthful years, the hearts corresponded, childhood sweethearts; that year the pear blossoms were pale, separated from the branches, and fell into the dust. The five flavors of the world are all in it, and tasting it is like life..." The aunt swallowed the cake, and finally remembered the uncle, and at this moment , the two just came together.

The phrase "There are all five flavors in this world, tasting it is like life" was deeply shocked by the guests in the restaurant when Mo Daxi uttered it, so in less than a stick of incense, fifty jasper pear flower cakes were sold. sold out.

This bet, Fang Ling lost convincingly.

In the lobby of Fumantang, Mo Dai cleaned the tables for a table of guests, but was about to leave when the guests grabbed her sleeves and begged her to tell the story of that day again. Modeton felt speechless. In the past three days, these guests frequently asked her to tell stories, and they told them over and over again, but they never got tired of listening to them. They knew the ending clearly, and even the most classic part of the story could be understood. recite it, but they still begged her to speak.

"Ah, Daxi, the shopkeeper agreed. I'll take your place. You should pack up and go home. You'll be here earlier tomorrow!"

"Ah, okay, thank you, Xiao Xiao!" The appearance of Xiao Xiao successfully rescued Modai's situation. She smiled at the guest apologetically, and quickly ran into the residence in the backyard, picking up the package that was packed last night. , Put the basket on your back and come out with blessings.

Mo Dai now has some money in her pocket. The bet she made with the shopkeeper that day made her sell everything she brought. The two baskets of wild pork are a total of 188 catties, and one catty is calculated at twice the unit price of fresh pork. , That's forty Wen, a total of 7,520 Wen, converted into silver taels is 720,520 Wen. Eggs are also calculated at twice the market price, that is, four yuan a piece, two hundred yuan, and all of them add up to seventy-two thousand seven hundred and twenty 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 ten catties each of polished rice and white flour, twenty catties of black flour, and some sweet potatoes. The total cost was two hundred and sixty cash. Then, Mo Dai went to buy another bolt of light blue muslin, spending 500 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 and go..." When the proprietress of the pastry shop saw that it was Madai, she waved her sleeves annoyedly to chase away people, but she saw Madai's hand. When he was holding the money, 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 to 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, last time she was eaten by Maru Niu, it seemed to be worth four yuan, so she has to make up for it this time, "Fifteen yuan."

"Okay, fifteen 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 ten years old, and 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, and after counting the money in his hand, there were still 620,770 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, she saw Mo Wuqing stepping 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 heard It clicked on the bolt inside.

Mo Dai was dumbfounded, this...what is the situation?
