Chapter 68 - 68 - Wonton Eating
"Just based on your work?" Old Master Mo would definitely not believe it, because even if Mo Lin Yu and Lee's worked, they wouldn't be able to earn much money.
"We made it doing business in town."
"Grandfather, if you don't believe me, you can come with me to the town tomorrow and have a look." Mo Xiao Yan really didn't want to explain so much.
Seeing that he could not ask any further, he called for Old Lady Mo to come with him.
At this time, Mo Xiao Xia also returned, and after walking through the door, she said: "I don't need to go to the Chen family to learn embroidery anymore, Master is going home."
"Go home?" Mo Xiao Yan seemed to have a great background.
"Yes, I heard that Master's home is in Beijing. That place must be very interesting." Mo Xiao Xia said with a face full of envy.
"Second Sister, come with us to town tomorrow, the weather is cold now, the clothes we are wearing are too thin, let's go buy some new clothes." Autumn has already come, and sooner or later, it would be colder. Mo Xiao Yan's clothes are already out of condition, especially after he left early in the morning.
At this time, Lee's came out and said: "Go buy a few cloths, mother will make them for you guys, you can save some money."
"Mother, right now you are very busy every day. How can you have the time to make clothes?" Mo Xiao Yan was afraid that Lee's was too tired.
Seeing Mo Xiao Yan say that, Lee's thought that her daughter despised him for being bad. After all, she was the one who thought of a way to earn money, so he let her buy a new set of clothes.
"Fine, tomorrow you and your Second Sister will go pick it out." With that, the Lee's went back to work.
"Xiao Yan, I won't be buying it, I still have clothes to wear, buying new clothes would be a waste." Actually, Mo Xiao Xia did not want to spend money, so it would be fine to just wear a few clothes.
Second Sister, just listen to me. Since you have nothing to do at home tomorrow, you can come with us to the town. Without waiting for Mo Xiao Xia's reply, Mo Xiao Yan ran over to the Lee's to help.
Right now, Mo Xiao Xia was also free at home, so she also went to help her family members with their kebabs. She had nothing else to do now, since she had an oxcart at home, she might as well go to town and help them.
The next morning, Mo Xiao Yan woke up and had his breakfast. He then dragged Mo Xiao Xia along to the oxcart to go to town.
A few of them drove the ox-cart to the town and set up a stall first. The Lee's and Mo Lin Yu watched over them as Mo Xiao Yan pulled Mo Xiao Xia to buy clothes.
Arriving at the shop, she saw many colorful and beautiful clothes, but when she heard the price, Mo Xiao Xia decided not to buy them. In her eyes, it was simply too expensive.
At first, Mo Xiao Xia had her eyes on a set of clothes, but due to the price, she did not want it anymore.
Mo Xiao Yan also helped Lee's look at a piece of clothing, bought three clothes at once, and spent more than two taels of silver.
Mo Xiao Yan and Mo Xiao Xia didn't even bother to look at the clothes Mo Lin Yu was wearing, so they didn't buy them for Mo Lin Yu, allowing him to pick one for himself whenever he was free.
The two happily took their clothes to the stall. This was the busiest time of the day, Mo Lin Yu and Lee's were busy to the point of sweating profusely.
Mo Xiao Yan came over and quickly put down everything before he went to help. On the other hand, since it was Mo Xiao Xia's first day, there were many things that he didn't know how to help, so he could only help to collect money.
Because they were all copper coins, they were very heavy. Looking at these copper coins, Mo Xiao Yan felt a sense of accomplishment.
He didn't expect that his first venture in ancient times would be so successful.
"Mom, I'll go and see if the wontons stall nearby is done. I'm hungry and want to eat wontons." When Mo Xiao Yan came in the morning, he saw a family that sold wontons, it looked really delicious, and when he thought about it, it was almost time to pack up. He went to eat wonton in a bowl, and didn't need to go back home to busy himself with cooking.
"Go on, you greedy little cat, we can clean this place up." Lee's said lovingly.
At the wonton stall, there were still a few people eating there. It seemed that they didn't want to close the stall yet.
"Boss, cook four bowls of wontons for me. I'll go and get a few people to cook them first. I'll come over right away. Is that alright?" Mo Xiao Yan was afraid that the other party wouldn't be willing.
"Alright, little girl, remember to come over quickly. This wonton cannot be cooked and will be done very soon." The man selling wontons said.
"Okay, I know, thank you." hurriedly ran back to call them over to eat together.
When they arrived at the stall, they had already packed everything up and placed them on the oxcart, waiting for Mo Xiao Yan's return.
"Xiao Yan, didn't you go to eat wontons? Why are you back so quickly? " Mo Lin Yu wondered how she was so fast.
"Big brother, I've ordered four bowls of wontons. They have already been cooked. Let's hurry up and go over. There's no need to bother cooking anymore after we've finished eating." Mo Xiao Yan said while gasping for breath.
"This child, mother won't eat that thing, you guys just eat it. What's the point of spending all that money? I can just cook some food for myself when we get back." Lee's did not want to spend more copper coins to buy a bowl of rice. Furthermore, his family did not lack any rice or food, so buying food was a bit of a waste of money.
"Mother, I've already gotten someone to cook it for me, and it's not like I eat it every day. It's fine if we only have one or two meals like this." Mo Xiao Yan only wanted to hurry up and go over, maybe the wontons had already been cooked.
Since it was already cooked, it was impossible for them to leave even if they did not eat, so the Lee's had no choice but to follow them to eat.
He did not eat anything else at home, so now that he had eaten a bowl of wontons, Mo Xiao Yan actually wanted to have another bowl of wontons after eating it. It was just that this bowl of wontons had a lot of ingredients too.
He had eaten his fill. Plus, he was too embarrassed to ask for a second bowl.
After eating, Lee's felt his heart ache as he saw the large amount of copper coins spent. However, as long as his daughter was happy, it was fine.
They went to buy more meat to sell the next day. After that, it was getting late. Fortunately, they had the ox-cart, so they no longer had to worry about not being able to catch up with it.
It had been a long day, and the day after he had arrived home it was almost dark by the time he had driven the oxcart home.
After he finished selling the kebabs on the second day, Mo Xiao Yan dragged Lee's into the house.
"Xiao Yan, why did you pull me in? I was just about to wash my face. " Lee's did not know what this daughter of hers was planning.
As the business at the stall was very busy after buying clothes today, Lee's did not notice that Mo Xiao Yan had also bought clothes for her. Now that Mo Xiao Yan had pulled her in, he wanted her to try on the clothes and see if they fit her properly.
