46 All the Money Was Earned By Her

Mo Ruyue was much calmer. She didn’t even turn her head and just used her left pinky finger to dig her ear.

This child had not seen much of the world and lacked experience. He had followed her into the city to buy and sell things so often, so why was he still so agitated?

However, his roars were definitely stronger than that of a calf. Although this was the first time a lady was in a flower sedan, her standard of raising children was still not bad.

Mo Ruyue went into the room directly and saw that San Bao, Si Bao, and Tang Tang seemed to have been scared silly by the shout just now. They were still in a daze and did not know how to call for help when they saw her entering the house.

“Come, children. Mother will buy you good food and fun things.”

As Mo Ruyue was speaking, Da Bao rushed in like a whirlwind and said to her angrily, “I gave you a hundred taels of silver, and you’re going to spend it all like that?”

“There’s still 50 taels of silver here. Don’t get too excited. ”

Mo Ruyue casually handed over fifty silver notes. Look, she had gotten them on the way before. They were finally put to use.

Da Bao’s expression eased a little when he saw this. He grabbed the silver notes and began to rummage through his small gold vault.

Not long after, another earth-shaking roar was heard. “Something’s wrong! How come I’m short of 50 taels of silver?”

Because of Mo Ruyue’s extravagant ways, Da Bao was angry with her for a long time. He didn’t even eat dinner that night and even skipped breakfast the next day.

In the end, as he was so hungry that his arms and legs were shaking, he fell directly from the plum blossom pile in the courtyard and lay on the ground, panting heavily.

The other babies originally wanted to come down from the plum blossom dome, but when Mo Ruyue’s cold gaze swept over them, they immediately gave up on that thought and once again lowered their heads and assumed the horse stance.

Da Bao struggled to get up and bit his lips as he climbed up the plum blossom dome. However, his legs were trembling, and he fell down again after a short while.

Mo Ruyue watched him coldly from the side. She knew that he was suffering from low blood sugar. As the saying goes, People are iron. Rice is steel. You’ll feel like crap without a meal.” Da Bao was still growing and had skipped two meals in a row. It would be strange if he did not have low blood sugar.

When Da Bao fell off the plum blossom dome for the third time, he did not fall onto the cold and hard ground. Instead, he fell into a warm and fragrant embrace.

“You gave me the silver notes because you feared it wouldn’t be enough. I don’t know what you’re angry about. If you’re afraid I’ll spend money extravagantly, you shouldn’t have given me so much. Who are you trying to show by putting on this face now?”

“It is up to you whether you still want to eat. I’m not the hungry one. But let me tell you, you’re not allowed to miss a single second of your daily training. Now, wash your hands and have your meal. You’ll stand in the courtyard in the morning and reflect on your mistakes before coming down.”

Mo Ruyue didn’t want to care about him at first. Whether he didn’t eat or fell from the plum blossom dome, it was all his own fault and had nothing to do with her.

However, she had to change Da Bao’s bad temper that flared up without distinguishing between right and wrong.

First of all, her family’s money was earned by her. No one could blame her even if she spent it all in one go.

Furthermore, he had given her only one hundred taels of silver, and she still had a few dozen taels left. And he actually dared to throw a tantrum at her. She didn’t know who had spoiled him.

Da Bao silently listened to Mo Ruyue’s scolding. He originally wanted to talk back to her, but he suddenly remembered that she had repeatedly stuffed the money she had earned into his hands and even gave him the house and land deeds that she had painstakingly gotten back.

What could he say if she kept the money for herself? She had earned it anyway.

Da Bao looked down at the mud on his hands and the wounds from the fall. He then looked up at his siblings, who were still standing on the plum blossom dome. They were distracted because they were worried about him and almost fell down a few times.

He took a deep breath, turned around to wash his hands, and went to the kitchen to get himself a portion of the breakfast that had already been prepared. There was millet porridge in the pot, which was the most nourishing thing for the stomach and the most suitable first meal after one had not eaten for a long time.

Da Bao’s eyes flickered as he lowered his head and started to eat.

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Mo Ruyue brought the other four babies to eat. At this time, Da Bao had almost finished his meal. When he walked to the courtyard, he jumped directly onto the plum blossom dome and began to do a horse stance.

Mo Ruyue didn’t care about him. She just told the babies to stay at home and water the vegetable fields in the backyard. Then, she went out.

Her destination was the Qin family’s new residence.

It was said to be a new house, but it had been built a few years ago. Not long after the news of Qin Ming’s death came, Qin Shi chased Mo Ruyue and her son out of the house and then moved in until the other day when she was forced to move out.

Mo Ruyue planned to check out the new house before moving in. Since Qin Shi moved out so unwillingly, she didn’t know what kind of trouble she had caused inside.

Even though she had already prepared herself for the worst, when Mo Ruyue saw the situation in the house, a cold light flickered in her eyes and she laughed out of anger.

“Good, very good. Old hag Qin, it’s a pity that you didn’t tear down this entire house.”

Not to mention the pigsty and sheep pen, even the doors and windows of the kitchen and each room had been torn down. When she entered the house, Mo Ruyue saw that the ground was full of litter. The house was empty, not even a wooden stool was left.

It seemed that if they didn’t clean up the house today, they wouldn’t be able to put the furniture in the house even if they were delivered the next day, let alone bring the livestock they had bought into the house.

After carefully checking the house’s condition, Mo Ruyue returned home and brought Da Bao, who was still doing the horse stance on the plum blossom dome, so that he could look at the new house.

After a while, Da Bao came back with a gloomy face. He walked before Mo Ruyue and wanted to say something but stopped. After holding it in for a long time, he finally apologized.

“I’ve already asked Uncle Liu next door to help me measure the size of the doors and windows. Then, you can go to the city and buy the doors and windows. I still have other things to do, so I can’t give you company.”

Mo Ruyue ignored his apology. It was useless to just apologize. If he couldn’t figure it out, the same thing would happen again.

Soon, Uncle Liu came back with the tools. He was a carpenter but could only make simple tables and chairs. He couldn’t make large items like doors, windows, beds, and cabinets, but it was easy for him to measure size.

He followed Mo Ruyue and Da Bao to the new house and measured the size of the doors and windows. Mo Ruyue recorded the data and handed it to Da Bao, saying, “Take this data and go to the furniture store in the city to order the doors and windows. I have already ordered some furniture from their shop, so just tell them to send it over tomorrow.”

“Which shop?”

Da Bao had followed Mo Ruyue into the city a few times and knew that there was more than one furniture shop in the city, so he asked.

“It’s the chain store in the south of the city. The livestock market is just two streets away from there. I can’t remember the name.”

Mo Ruyue paused and then said in realization, “The bill for collecting the goods is in the pouch I gave you. Go get it and look for the address. Don’t lose it. That is worth nearly thirty silver taels of furniture.”

Da Bao seemed to want to say something, but his lips quickly pursed into a straight line. He just nodded and walked in the direction of his home.
