C67 (2/2)
Mo Lin Yu drove the ox cart to the stall, where Lee's had already packed all of his things.
At this moment, the woman selling buns came over and looked at the oxcart enviously. ”Did you guys just buy this oxcart?”
Looking at the new car rack, you could tell it was just bought.
”Yeah, our family lives far away, so it's more convenient to have an oxcart.” Lee's was proud, he felt that he had a lot of face. After all, only a few families in the village had an oxcart.
”I've just bought an ox-cart, so I don't have much on hand. For the time being, I'll set up a stall outside.” Mo Xiao Yan really wanted to rent a shop, but he didn't have that much silver.
After placing everything on the ox-cart, and Lee's sat on, Mo Lin Yu then drove the ox-cart back.
Now that he had an ox-cart, he wouldn't have to worry about not being able to catch one when it was too late, and he wouldn't have to put the grill back at Xu Da Mu's place either.
Just as they entered the village, the news of Mo Xiao Yan's family owning an oxcart spread throughout the entire village.
Previously, Mo Xiao Yan's family was considered the poorest in this village, but now, no one expected their family to actually buy an ox cart.
At this time, at Liu Yue Mei's home, Madam He also heard the news, ”Yue Mei, when did your Aunt Li's family get rich, and even bought an ox-cart? You must know that in our village, only two or three families have ox-carts.”
”Mother, Auntie Li's family is doing business in the town, they must have made some money, that's why they bought the ox-cart.” Liu Yue Mei was in the Chen Family learning embroidery, and walked with Mo Xiao Xia everyday. She had often heard about it from Mo Xiao Xia, so Liu Yue Mei did not feel anything strange.
”Oh, so that's how it is. Their family had been through a lot in the past, but now they're finally out of it.” The He family had helped Mo Xiao Yan's family a lot, often giving gifts, so the two families had a good relationship with each other.
After returning home, many villagers who came to see the commotion heard that Mo Xiao Yan's family had bought an ox-cart. They all wanted to come over to take a look.
Mo Xiao Yan and his family moved the things on the oxcart into the house. At this time, many people stood in the courtyard, and were discussing something enviously.
After that, the people who came to watch the show all went back. Old Master Mo and Old Lady Mo also came over.
”male milk, you guys are here. Come and sit.” Mo Lin Yu brought out two stools.
Old Lady Mo walked over and sat down.
”Your family bought an ox-cart. Where did all this silver come from?” The Old Master Mo asked.
”I recently made some silver from doing business and borrowed some silver to buy this ox-cart.” If Mo Xiao Yan said that he bought it, Old Master Mo would suspect that he stole the money.
”This is definitely not cheap. How much money would it cost?” Old Master Mo felt that Mo Xiao Yan's family was too wasteful, they did not save up enough money to buy any ox-cart.
”Ten taels of silver.” Mo Xiao Yan really did not want to answer so many questions.
”Isn't this too expensive? Did your father get someone to bring you some silver taels?” Old Master Mo thought that maybe they had taken everything for themselves, but he didn't say anything about being filial.
”No, Father hasn't brought anything back for a long time.” This time, Mo Lin Yu opened his mouth.
”Then other than borrowing them, where did you get the money from?” Old Master Mo planned to pursue this to the end.
