It’s Hard For a Good Wife and Mother - Chapter 140

“Wife master?” Seeing that Mo Dai didn’t answer, thinking she didn’t hear clearly, Mo Wufeng called again.

Mo Dai smiled slightly, trying to make herself look calm and calm: “Well, it’s nothing, just some strangely shaped stones.”

“Odd-shaped stones, Ms. Zhao’s hobbies are really different!” Mo Wufeng said with a smile, and Mo Dai prayed in her heart that he would quickly put this topic aside, and don’t bring it up again, and Mo Wufeng really didn’t like it. After mentioning it again, Mo Dai breathed a sigh of relief.

“My wife, go back to the market to buy things, and take me with you!” Mo Wufeng said suddenly.

“Okay, do you have something you want to buy?” Mo Dai happened to meet his gaze when he looked up. Attachment and love are pure and strong.

The sunlight came in from the window of the kitchen room, and a stream of golden beams hit his cheeks. The thin down hair was reflected transparently by the sunlight, and his complexion was faintly flushed, making him look agile and lively. beauty.

Potatoes and meat were cooking in the pot beside him, and it was making a gurgling sound, and the rising white water vapor enveloped his surroundings, and the whole stove room was filled with the smell of meat and potatoes.

This time Mo Dai lost the battle ahead of time, she was hungry, and she would eat Mo Wufeng as a potato stew.

“My wife, do you have anything you want in particular?” Mo Wufeng asked, but his hands were not idle, he took out two pickled radishes from the jar at the bottom of the locker and cut them into fine shreds as side dishes.

“I don’t have anything in particular, I just really want to eat fresh green vegetables, but I don’t have them this season, hehe!” Modai had already packed the whole chicken and put it in the oven, then went to the sink and wiped some soap locust liquid to wipe it down. Wash hands well.

Mo Wufeng frowned involuntarily, and then let go, the expression on his face suddenly became very firm.

After lunch, Mo Dai was going to the market to buy things, and Mo Wufeng, who had to go with her while cooking, suddenly said that he had other things to do, so Mo Dai went out with a basket on his back.

It’s only been two months since I left Luling Town, and I feel an indescribable feeling of intimacy when I come back. Mo Dai walked all the way on the street, and accidentally saw the boy A Ping who had delivered milk to them again.

A Ping is still selling eggs this time, and there are still many patches on his clothes. The weather in early March was still cold, so Ah Ping stood beside the egg basket and stamped his feet in circles from time to time.

When Modai stood in front of him, he recognized her at a glance and greeted her excitedly. Although the intention in his eyes was obvious, he was not embarrassed to sell his eggs to her.

“I bought this egg, how much is it?” Modai asked.

A Ping was a little surprised, and what followed was a surprise: “Sixty eggs, two cents each, a total of one hundred and twenty yuan! Earlier, my sister and brother often helped me, and it was enough to accept one hundred yuan from my sister!”

Mo Dai smiled, paid the money, and asked casually, “Do you still have milk in your village?”

A Ping frowned, and said with a regretful expression: “The milk is gone, but there is goat’s milk. Do you want it?”

“Okay, can you deliver it today?” Mo Dai said, and gave Aping a tael of silver.

A Ping’s eyes lit up, and a bright smile appeared on his face that was flushed red from the cold: “Okay, I’ll go back to milking!”

A Ping took the money, bowed to Modai and ran away quickly.

Mo Dai came to the strange goods store with A Ping’s basket of eggs on her shoulders. The proprietress saw Modai like a hungry wolf seeing meat, her eyes were burning: “Master Savior, you are finally back!” Then she walked into the room called out.

Not long after, four men walked out of the room, still wearing the same makeup that seduced Maude at the beginning, white veil, white lantern-sleeved short jacket, black wide belt, and white bloomers, bare feet, ankles Wearing a bell, she swayed and twisted around Mo Dai in a circle, and the bell jingled as she moved.

Modai watched the four men turn around N times without blinking, without blinking their eyes. Seeing that Modai still didn’t respond, the four men were shocked, they withdrew, walked aside and stood still, feeling a little bit in their hearts. Once slandered that Modai was not a woman.

At this time, another string of bells sounded, and Mo Dai saw the proprietress of the store and the four men immediately bowed their heads, with their right hands resting on their left chests to salute, presumably it was their leader who appeared this time.

First, a skull scepter full of bells came into view of Modai, and then a dwarf whose head and face were wrapped in gray-white robes came out, with a white cat at his feet.

Modai heard the proprietress and the four men call respectfully in English: “Master Wizard!”

Mo Dai twitched the corners of her mouth, thinking, it turned out to be Gui Yi, why was she so obsessed?

Gui Yi walked in front of Mo Dai, and exposed his wrapped head and face, Mo Dai looked at it and was quite surprised: “You are Gui Yi?”

Gui Yi frowned, and replied in English: “It’s me, do you have any objections?”

Modai shook her head, she naturally had no objection, but after two months of seeing each other, Gui Yi’s appearance had changed too much, short hair that was an inch long grew out of his bald head, his fair complexion now turned into a honey color, his eyes It also sank deeply, and the nose stood up. The only thing that hasn’t changed is the eyes and the small mouth. However, this does not affect his beautiful appearance in the slightest, on the contrary, it gives him a bit of a different style of a wild and handsome boy from a foreign land.

“My potion can only change my skin color for a short period of time, but now it’s just changing back to its original appearance!” Guiyi explained angrily, after explaining, he carefully observed Modai’s expression, and asked cautiously, “Aren’t you okay?” Do you like my look?”

Just as Mo Dai was about to say no, she suddenly realized her situation. Gui Yi was so anxious to ask for her opinion, he must have some intentions!

“I’m here to buy things, lady boss, I want to buy hawthorn and black prunes, and wild honey…” Mo Dai said while pointing at the things on the shelf.

Gui Yi just stood there, feeling very annoyed, this woman actually ignored him!

The four men standing next to them couldn’t help looking at the sky. It turned out that their wizards couldn’t touch the heart of the savior, so what should they do?

With a basket of eggs on her shoulders, Mo Dai left the strange goods store with her purchases on her back. Guiyi and the white cat Quack walked behind her, knocking on the scepter and ringing a series of bells, causing passers-by to look at them frequently.

Mo Dai couldn’t take it anymore, and whispered: “Put your scepter in the odd goods store, it’s too eye-catching!”

“No, this scepter is the weapon I rely on for survival, just like breathing, I can’t live without it at all times!” Gui Yi’s head and face are hidden in the gray-white robe, and the robe’s hem is dragging to the ground, and it looks gray and white from a distance. , Mode gave him the evaluation that he looked funny during the day, but scary at night.

“Stop talking nonsense, I haven’t seen you carrying a scepter before!” Mo Dai naturally didn’t believe it.

“The past was the past, and the present is the present. I feel at ease when I hear the bell on the scepter ring, right? Quack?” Guiyi refused to compromise, and the white cat at his feet immediately responded with a “meow” .

“Then stay away from me, don’t let outsiders know that I know you!” Mo Dai said, squinting at him.

“That’s impossible, we know each other clearly.”

“You… well, count yourself as ruthless!”

After returning to the house, the family was also curious about Guiyi’s appearance, especially Mo You and Ciena. They didn’t care about it before. Guiyi went out early in the daytime and went directly into the room when he came back at night. There was a serious lack of love between them. communicate.

Mo Xiaoyu and Mo Xiaoyi were curious about Guiyi’s skull-headed scepter, and went up to touch it to enjoy themselves from time to time, while Mo Xiaoman also stretched out his little hand to reach for the bell on the scepter.

So not long after, Guiyi’s “weapon for survival” became a toy in the hands of the three little ones. Watching Mo Xiaoman tug on his bell with his little hands, Mo Xiaoyu tried to pick off the ring embedded in the skull. When Mo Xiaoyi actually used his teeth to test the firmness of the scepter, Guiyi was so heartbroken, but in order to please their mother, Modai, he could only endure it.

Sure enough, that child, Aping, brought a can of goat milk over that day. Modai made a cake that night. The sponge cake interlayer was smeared with hawthorn sauce, surrounded by condensed milk and chocolate. Although there was no fruit, the three little ones were still extremely excited, especially when candles were lit on the cake.

This was to make up for Mo Xiaoyi’s birthday, the little birthday star sat happily at the table, the cake was placed in front of him, his little face was reddened by the candlelight.

Modai held his little hand to cut the cake. When she cut the first piece, Modai thought that he would eat it eagerly, but unexpectedly, he gave it to Qiongqing tremblingly. Qiongqing was a little surprised, and then Patted his head.

Seeing Mo Xiaoyi nestled in Qiongqing’s arms, his eyes narrowed with joy, Mo Dai and Mo Wuyun were deeply jealous, as expected, the charm of a beauty is great!

After dinner, Xu Shaolin discussed with the whole family about going back to Shuiquan Town.

Today, the shopkeeper Qiu of Bai Duoyin Inn handed over Xiao Xiao’s letter, which was written by Xiao Xiao at the request of others, mainly to report safety. Xu Shaolin also sent a letter to Xiao Xiao to inform her that Xiao Sheng had returned safely, but he did not say anything about being escorted to the Imperial Capital by half force.

Xu Shaolin said that Xiao Xiao’s marriage has been delayed from years to years, and it’s time to do it. And it’s time for Mo Dai, Shi Mo and Qiong Qing’s marriage.

Mo Dai felt that it was time, but seeing that the bellies of Xiao Sheng, Mo Wuyun and Mo Mo had gradually emerged, and they had just returned, she decided to rest here for a few days before rushing on her way.

After washing in the evening, Mo Dai just pushed open the door of her room when Shi Mo followed and smiled charmingly at Mo Dai: “My wife, I want to know what is in that brocade box?”

The corner of Mo Dai’s mouth twitched, she actually ignored Mo Mo’s strong curiosity all the time, thinking that in order to find out what kind of underwear Mo Dai asked Mo Wuyun and the others to make, he almost seized the opportunity to pester her to ask, The more she didn’t answer, the more curious he became. This time, he was interested in the brocade box that Zhao Yingzi gave her again. With his temperament, if he didn’t let him know, he would definitely not be able to sleep.

“It’s just some strangely shaped stones.” Mo Dai said, however, it’s okay to fool the simple Mo Wufeng with her words, but Mo Mo will never let it go!

“Oh? Stones? Zhao Yingzi’s gift is definitely not that simple, I want to see it!” Shi Mo had a serious look on his face to filter out the enemy’s situation for Modai.

Mode: “…”

Shi Mo went into Modai’s room, his eyes were like radar scanning all over the bed and under the bed, but he couldn’t find the brocade box.

Mo Dai crossed her arms, and the old **** was leaning on the door frame.

“My wife, you, you don’t trust me?” Shi Mo’s face was hurt.

Knowing that he was pretending, Mo Dai took his hand to send him out, closed the door with a smile in front of his face, and did not forget to say: “Good night!”

Shi Mo was dumbfounded this time, the old tricks can no longer be used, he has to use new tricks, otherwise, he is doomed not to be able to sleep tonight.

Mo Dai just lay on the bed and got into the quilt to get a good sleep, but she didn’t want the door to be knocked. If Mo Dai didn’t move, the people outside continued to knock, and Mo Dai had no choice but to get out of bed to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Mo Dai was a little dazed, this, this is…

“Everyone, come in quickly. Let me tell you that the brocade box that Zhao Yingzi gave to his wife is strange. I am familiar with architecture, and I also know a little about various simple mechanism techniques. In my opinion, the brocade box may be It’s a trap box, for the safety of the wife-owner, we as husbands have to take precautions before they happen, don’t you think?”

Mo Mo led the three brothers Mu Qianche, Xiao Sheng, Qiongqing and Mo Wuyun into Mo Dai’s room like a modern tour guide, and did not forget to help Mo Dai close the door kindly.

Mo Dai squinted at him, and said in a low voice: “What do you want to do? A pregnant woman can’t sleep peacefully and wanders around, and now she’s forming cliques, what’s the point?”

Shi Mo smiled wickedly: “My wife, you know that I am pregnant, but you still refuse to satisfy my curiosity, making me scratch my head and cannot sleep, alas!”

Mo Dai was very speechless, but still couldn’t help pinching and twisting Mo Shi’s waist. Mo Dai thought she didn’t use much force, but Shi Mo yelled ambiguously like a psychopath, causing the other six people to look over in surprise .

“What’s the matter, brother Momo?” Xiao Sheng asked.

Shi Mo rubbed his nose and said with a smile: “It’s nothing, I just feel like the child kicked me in the stomach!”

Xiao Sheng and Mo Wuyun looked at each other and stopped talking. Indeed, they could also feel that the child would move occasionally.

“Brother Mo Mo, the wife-master said that there are some strange-shaped stones inside, nothing unusual!” Seeing that Mo Dai seemed a little embarrassed, Mo Wufeng hurriedly explained it to Mo Dai.

Mo Dai was grateful to Mo Wufeng in her heart, she was such a good boy, he believed everything she said, and at the same time felt a little sorry for him, knowing that he was innocent and lying to him! But she is not lying, jade is also a stone, and those carvings are indeed strange.

“Since it’s a stone, it’s okay if we take a look, right?” Mo Wuqing said, he always felt that Mo Dai was trying to tease people’s hearts, no wonder Mo Mo was curious, and he was also a little curious.

Mu Qianche and Qiongqing didn’t speak, they were actually not curious about the brocade box, they just followed suit this time.

Modai thought, it’s rare for everyone to come, and it’s not a problem to hide it. She simply took it out and let them see it. She didn’t believe that they would be embarrassed, and then she could directly seal it and never open it.

Mo Dai let everyone sit around the table, she walked to the shelf by the window, took down a pot of prickly pear, and lifted the light blue coarse cloth covering it, revealing the brocade box.

Shi Mo suddenly realized that it was hidden there.

Mo Dai solemnly placed the brocade box in the middle of the table, and discussed with them for the last time: “Do you have to read it? Can you not read it?”

Shi Mo: “No! The arrow is on the string!”

Xiao Sheng: “My wife, what the **** is it?”

Mo Wuyun: “Can’t you watch it?”

Mo Wufeng: “My wife doesn’t want us to watch it, so let’s stop watching it!”

Mo Wuqing: “Second brother, you actually want to see it too!”

Mu Qianche: “I’m free.”

Qiongqing: “Hey, I’m free too.”

Modai sighed: “Okay, I’ll let you see, but I want to declare two points, first, this is Zhao Yingzi sent me, not mine; second, this is really Zhao Yingzi sent me Yes, I didn’t ask her for it!” After speaking, Mo Dai opened the brocade box with a look of death, and everyone was shocked in an instant.

Mode smiled. As the saying goes, curiosity kills the cat, which makes you curious and shocked, right? Do you know how powerful it is? Are you speechless?

“Okay, I’ll watch it, I’ll put it away, and I won’t take it out again!” Mo Dai was about to close the lid, but was interrupted by Mo Mo.

“Wait!” But seeing the guy pick up a jade carving, squint his eyes and look at it obscenely, and finally let out a voice of admiration, “Where did Zhao Yingzi find it? It’s really a high-quality item, lifelike, vivid, wonderful!”

It would be fine if Shi Mo was alone, but Mu Qianche also reached out and took one to look at, followed by Xiao Sheng, then Mo Wuqing, and then Mo Wuyun, Mo Wufeng’s face turned red, but he didn’t say anything. He touched one without hesitation, and at the end, Qiongqing was left looking at the brocade box with embarrassment.

Mo Dai thought, Qiongqing would never take it, but she was totally wrong, in fact, Qiongqing took more than one.

The world is in chaos, Mo Dai decided to see nothing, she got into bed and fell asleep, and said in a muffled voice, “Whoever is the last to leave will help me close the door, thank you!”

Mo Dai didn’t know when she fell asleep, nor did she know when Mu Qianche and the others left. When she woke up, it was already Mao Shi the next day.

When she got dressed and got out of bed, she found that there was not a single jade carving left in the brocade box, presumably it was divided up by her seven husbands.

A cold wind blew through Maude’s mind, a leaf whirled and flew by, her eyelids kept twitching, without such a contrast, aren’t they all reserved and shy people?

The next few days passed peacefully and steadily. During the day, Mo Dai not only cooked different things for the family to eat, but also played with the three children.

It’s early spring now, and the plants in the garden are starting to sprout new shoots. Although the weather is still cold, it won’t get any colder.

Occasionally, Mo Dai would think of the situation when she first came to this world. There were three dilapidated thatched houses, the family members were thin and boned, the last meal was never finished, and relatives bullied them unscrupulously… Now their family no longer has to pay for three meals a day. It is the result of their family’s hard work to worry about nothing.

The seventh day of March was Mo Wuyun’s birthday, and the eighth day of March was the day Mo Daxi was adopted by Mo Ahua, and it was also designated as Mo Daxi’s birthday. Mo Dai simply celebrated the seventh day of March with Mo Wuyun.

Mo Dai’s gift to Mo Wuyun is a music box, she designed the blueprint, started the construction with graphite, and the sound of the Qingqiong. It looks like a wooden jewelry box. When it is opened, there is a little figure standing on the stage inside. Just turn the **** on the outside of the box a few times and wind it up, and the little figure will spin on the stage. At the same time, there will be a jingle sound inside the box, which is a modern birthday song.

This gift was undoubtedly a beautiful surprise for Mo Wuyun, and he was so moved that he couldn’t stop crying. He also sent Modai back a new set of pink and green skirts, perfect for spring.

The three little ones were very happy with the music box and always wanted to play with it, but Mo Wuyun put it away like a baby and didn’t let them move at all. Mo Xiaoman was still young, and Mo Wuqing forgot the music box after coaxing him, but Mo Xiaoyu and Mo Xiaoyi remembered that they were depressed, but when the cake was served, all their depression was wiped away .

Mo Wufeng called Mo Dai to his room, and uncovered the oil paper covering a rectangular bamboo basket. Mo Dai was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a cluster of green vegetables growing in the basket.

“My wife, don’t you really want to eat small green vegetables? I tried to grow some, and I will make them for you today!” Mo Wufeng said with a smile.

This time it was Mo Dai’s turn to be touched, she hugged Mo Wufeng and kissed the corner of his lips: “Thank you, Mr., I am very happy!”

Mo Wufeng blushed, and immediately hugged Mo Dai tightly, feeling very happy in his heart, thinking that his painstaking efforts were finally not in vain.

In mid-March, they decided to return to Shuiquan Town.

Shi Mo hired several servants to take care of the cleaning and maintenance of the house, and brought the two previously hired guards Xue Arou and Sun Dalan to the nursing home.

Before leaving, Mo Dai went to Bai Duoyin’s inn to see the situation of the massage parlor.

At noon four days later, the family returned to the Mo Mansion in Shuiquan Town.

The long-lost Mo Mansion, under the care of Jin Yan and the other twelve people, is neat and tidy, and everything is as it was when they left.

Mo Xiaoyu and Mo Xiaoyi cheered and ran into the fun garden in the west courtyard to play, Mo Xiaoman kept urging Mo Wu to walk briskly, while Mo Dai ran directly into the bamboo forest that had been nourished by her blood Inside.

The bamboo has begun to grow new leaves, and the wind is blowing softly. Maude lay in the hammock, closed her eyes and felt the tranquility of this moment.

It was the first time for Qiongqing to come to Shuiquan Town, and it was a new and unfamiliar environment for him, but because of Modai and his family, he didn’t feel lonely.

It was also the first time for Ciena to come back. He looked around curiously. Although the house in Mo Mansion was not as new and exquisite as the one in Luling Town, it was bigger, with a wider view and more human touch.

What I have to say is that Gui Yi also followed, and Modai admired his determination.

Mu Qianche and Mo You used to live in the front yard, and now they still live in the front yard. In addition, Qiongqing, Cigla and Guiyi also arranged to live in the front yard.

After the family had lunch, Mo Dai suggested that they all go to the soup, and by the way gave Xiao Xiao a surprise.

Maruniu still refused to go, fearing that there would be too many people, so Guiyi would not go, he would rather take a cold shower at home.

When he came, Shi Mo bought another carriage, and now the family has two carriages. The family came to Shangshan Ruoshui Massage Parlor in a carriage, and when they got out of the carriage, Xiao Xiao was really surprised.

Mo Dai and Xiao Xiao haven’t seen each other for more than three months, and they were a little excited when they saw each other again, especially Xiao Xiao, his eyes were red, and he punched Mo Dai, and Mo Dai stretched out his palm to catch it.

Xiao Xiao said, “It’s been so long since I saw you, but you look even more beautiful!”

Modai replied: “You are getting uglier, why, can’t the profits of the massage parlor feed you? Look at you, you are as thin as a monkey!”

Xiao Xiao smirked: “Aren’t I waiting for you to come back and raise me?”

Mo Dai rolled her eyes: “I’m almost married, so I’m not afraid that your husband-in-law will laugh at you!”

Xiao Xiao didn’t care, turned his face and glanced at Mo Dai’s seven husbands, and smiled a little maliciously: “Mo Dai, it just so happens that you are here today, and there is still a mandarin duck soup pool vacant, I treat you, no money!”

Mo Dai smiled bluntly: “Let’s leave it to you and your husband-in-law, we will save you…”

“Mandarin Duck Soup? Alright, let’s try it today!” Shi Mo looked eager to try.

Xiao Xiao hastily echoed, “Okay, guests please!”

At this moment, Mo Dai really wanted to strangle Shi Mo and Xiao Xiao to death, but seeing her husbands go in one after another, her eyelids jumped violently.
