Chapter 9 Bloodline
I don’t know who posted Mo Fei’s ice rice online. The ice rice is both delicious and good-looking, and there are two lively and cute good-looking twins. By chance, this video has received over 10,000 likes.
Mo's ice rice suddenly became the top-selling dish in Huaimeng Market.
The family of three + the small ice rice cart with colorful lights attracted a long queue as soon as the stall was opened.
The 100 servings that Mo Fei prepared were all sold out within an hour. Moreover, she used a large iron pot to cook the ingredients this time, making them even more delicious, earning a lot of repeat customers. Everyone asked Mo Fei to prepare more.
As Mo Fei listened to the sound of Alipay and WeChat payments, she, who was not a big smiler, kept smiling. Making money is not shameful.
Of course, she did not forget to give the children some pocket money, so that they could go to other stalls to buy some snacks and cold drinks they liked. Although the other stalls were jealous, they lost their temper when they saw these two little treasures.
But on the third day of Mo Fei's stall, three similar ice rice vendors appeared in the market. Even the carts were decorated similarly to Mo Fei's, and the ingredients of the ice rice were deliberately more than Mo Fei's, and the price was lower than Mo Fei's. As expected, many customers were attracted.
"What should I do, Mom?" Mo Jiayue was a little worried.
These two days, she and her brother accompanied their mother to the stall and realized how hard it was to make money. They had to buy materials, prepare, and fight for the stall. Sometimes they might even misremember the customer's needs and type them wrong. Now there are so many more competitors.
"Don't be afraid. Go buy some ice cream with your brother." Mo Fei said confidently.
Not to mention that she has a magical iron pot, just the fact that she has studied cooking for so many years and finally became the head chef of a top hotel, there is no way she can lose in this small market.
As expected, the 200 portions that Mo Fei prepared today were all sold out in two hours. The person who bought the last portion of ice rice and green bean soup shouted wildly: "It's really delicious! The netizens really didn't lie to me!"
Mo Fei made a direct net profit of 2,000 yuan and was very happy.
The three stalls that followed the trend had a few customers at first, but now they were deserted and could not sell anything.
Two days later, Mo Fei received the full payment from selling the house.
After counting the number of zeros in his bank card balance, Mo Fei's "poor and destitute" mood improved a lot.
Mo Fei simply calculated in his mind where the money would go, and immediately spent 2,000 a month to rent a seven-seater hybrid car.
The original owner got his driver's license right after graduating from the college entrance examination, which saved Mo Fei a lot of trouble. He already had a license to drive after finding the original owner's driver's license.
The weather is so hot now, having a means of transportation when going out is a necessity.
The first thing Mo Fei did after renting the car was to take his two children for a test drive.
When the two children go to school or go out, they either walk or take the bus.
Because of the family’s financial difficulties, we rarely even take a taxi.
They never thought that one day they would be able to ride in a car driven by their mother.
And it is a car with seven seats. Seven seats, how cool!
Mo Fei took the children for a drive around the city, and she noticed that the places where the strange cracks appeared were either filled with concrete or had warning signs placed on them. She had good driving skills and directly avoided these areas.
"Are you happy?" Mo Fei asked while waiting for the traffic light.
Overall, she is very satisfied with the car, which has strong power, fast start, large cabin, ample interior space, and complete functions.
The most important thing is that this is the best choice among the car dealerships with a price range of 2,000 yuan per month.
"Happy!" Jiayue shouted. Even Jianian, who was usually more stable, couldn't hide the excitement on his face.
Many of their classmates’ parents would drive over to pick them up after school, and I couldn’t help but envy them every time I saw them.
Although this car was only rented by Mo Fei, it was enough to make the two children happy for a long time.
If Mo Fei hadn't asked for leave for them so they didn't have to go to school for half a month, they would definitely have asked Mo Fei to drive this car to pick them up.
After taking a ride, Mo Fei parked the car in a parking lot in a residential complex.
The old community has no security guards and no access control system, so outside vehicles can park wherever they want, as if they were entering an empty space.
This is exactly the neighborhood where Mo Fei's parents live.
Mo Fei is a man of his word. He said he would come to see them again, and here he is.
"Do you want to wait for your mother in the car or in the store?" Mo Fei asked as he picked up several large lunch boxes on the passenger seat.
Easing relations must be done step by step.
Mo Fei planned to wait until her father was willing to forgive her before bringing her child to visit her father.
The children knew that turning on the air conditioner in the car would consume more fuel, so they all chose to go to the store.
Although it's only May, it's almost noon now and the weather is insanely hot. Almost every store will turn on the air conditioner during business hours.
There's nothing better than waiting for mom at the store.
Mo Fei took the two children into the "Holly Store" in the community, bought two ice creams for the children from the owner, and told the children to call her if they had any problems.
The two children nodded and raised their smart watches. This smart watch was a gift from Mo Fei yesterday. It cost more than 200 yuan, had a long battery life of 21 days, and had all the functions, including making calls, surfing the Internet, and navigating. The brother and sister loved it very much.
"Knock knock knock." Mo Fei walked up to the third floor and knocked on the door. Although it was her second time here, she was still a little reserved.
"Hey!" Song Yi responded loudly. She had known over the phone that Mo Fei would come today, so she got up early in the morning and was busy in the kitchen.
"Is my dad out?" Mo Fei didn't see Mo Zhicheng.
"I wanted to make you spicy spareribs, but I ran out of soy sauce. I asked him to go downstairs to buy some, but you didn't see him."
"Maybe I just missed it." Mo Fei said.
She went to the kitchen and opened her lunch boxes one by one. "Mom, look at what I made. I made three dishes and a soup. I wonder if they suit your taste."
Mo Fei thought that his parents were already in their fifties or sixties and had bad teeth due to their age, so he specially made a crucian carp and tofu soup, a golden pumpkin pancake, a vegetable roll, and a stir-fried beef.
Song Yi held the spatula, somewhat unbelieving the dish in front of her.
She originally thought that her daughter meant to buy some ready-made food when she said she would bring her something delicious, but she didn't expect that her daughter actually made it herself and it looked so delicious.
Every dish looks soft and delicious, with a fragrant aroma that makes people salivate and swallow their saliva.
"This...this, this, this, you did all this?" Song Yi couldn't help but ask.
She had asked her daughter about her job on WeChat before, and Mo Fei only said that she worked as a receptionist during the day and sold food at a stall at night. She didn't say that her cooking skills had become so good now.
"It seems that it doesn't matter whether I make these ribs or not. I want to enjoy the blessing of my daughter." Song Yi smiled gently.
The mother and daughter put the dishes on the table, then sat in the living room to chat, waiting for Mo Zhicheng to come back before starting dinner.
"Mom, I have something to tell you." Mo Fei told her about selling the house.
Song Yi paid the down payment for this house, and she felt that Song Yi needed to know about this.
Song Yi's first reaction was whether something had happened to Mo Fei. Why would he sell the house for cash when he was living in it perfectly?
Mo Fei quickly shook his head and told Song Yi about all his big expenses.
He didn't mention that he had the space, he just said that he rented a storefront as a warehouse.
The two children could only rely on her, and depend on her for life. But after all, the original owner's parents had not been in contact with the original owner for so many years, and no one knew who was around. Mo Fei instinctively felt that the fewer people who knew about this, the better.
"Why did you buy so many things, kid? Even if you eat eight meals a day, it would take you ten years." Song Yi shook her head when she heard that Mo Fei had stockpiled eight hundred boxes of instant noodles of different flavors. "I told you when you were a kid that instant noodles are junk food and bad for your health. And you bought so many vegetables. They won't last long at all. They will rot in two days. You might as well buy some dehydrated vegetables. They taste the same as fresh ones when boiled in water."
"Why didn't I think of that?" Dehydrated vegetables? Mo Fei just thought his mother was a genius.
Dehydrated vegetables are vegetables that have been dried, freeze-dried, fried, etc. to remove moisture. They are smaller in size than fresh vegetables, easier to store and transport. So even if her space suddenly loses its freshness and heat preservation function one day, the dehydrated vegetables will not go bad for a while.
Murphy's life motto is that all eggs should never be put in one basket. No matter what you do, you must leave yourself a way out.
Thinking of this, Mo Fei couldn't wait any longer, so he quickly picked up his phone and ordered a large quantity of dehydrated vegetables online.
The more than 100,000 yuan of goods she had stockpiled before were just small-scale purchases. The more than 1 million yuan in her hands were the highlight of the stockpiling. She would be very busy in the next week.
Song Yi didn't expect that just because of her casual words, Mo Fei would start shopping again. This was really a bit crazy!
Song Yi was worried: "Fei Fei, did you believe the rumors on the Internet? Did you also think that the end of the world or a natural disaster is coming? Experts have debunked the rumors and told us not to panic or believe them. Mom has told you since you were a child not to believe in things on the Internet... don't spread rumors or believe them. We have to trust the government, and I've also joined the community group, and the community will notify us of any events."
Mo Fei was choked by his mother's teaching and was hesitant to speak.
If she can travel through time, then what else is impossible in this world?
After thinking for a while, Mo Fei said mysteriously: "Mom, actually I have a friend who works in a research institute. Do you remember Xiao Zheng from our class? He joined the research institute after finishing his doctorate. He secretly told me that some of the news on the Internet is actually true."
What Mo Fei said was very convincing. Song Yi went from not believing it at first to being half-believing and half-doubting. In the end, he wanted to run to the supermarket to buy things immediately, but was stopped by Mo Fei.
It's too easy to be fooled, Mo Fei shouted in his heart.
"Mom, don't worry. When I was preparing the supplies, I had already prepared some for you and my dad." Mo Fei told Song Yi not to bother.
She doesn't belong to this world.
I don’t know what kind of joke God played on me by sending her here.
It made her, who had never been in love, have children. It made her, who had been an orphan since childhood, have parents.
Perhaps God felt that she was too lonely and made another arrangement for her fate.
Mo Fei may not be able to care about other people's lives, but as long as the original owner's parents and children do not betray her, she will do her best to protect and take care of them. Everything is about cause and effect, and this is what she needs to repay for using someone else's body.
Listening to her daughter's words, Song Yi vaguely saw Mo Fei, who was only ten years old at the time.
Little Mo Fei patted his chest and said to her, Mom, when I grow up, I will let you live in a big house, buy you lots of things, and take you to travel around the world.
Shop downstairs.
Mo Jianian whispered to his sister who was staring at her watch, "Did you notice that someone has been watching us?"
Mo Jiayue looked up in confusion: "Where is the person?"
Then she saw a sixty-year-old man wearing a straw hat, a baggy short-sleeved shirt and brown pants, and holding a bottle of soy sauce in his hand.
The old man was looking at her and her brother across the shelves, but because of the angle, his face couldn't be seen clearly, only a pair of wrinkled eyes.
Mo Jiayue is not afraid of strangers, she is very open and generous, and smiles at everyone like a little sun.
So she smiled brightly at the old man, revealing the dimples on her cheeks.
"Why are you still smiling at me?" Mo Jianian pulled his sister, a little angry. Who knows what evil intentions strangers have.
Mo Jiayue lowered her head quickly after being told by her brother: "You only said that someone was watching us, but you didn't say we couldn't laugh."
"..." Mo Jianian's eight-year-old face showed a kind of vicissitudes that were not in line with his age. He was eight years old and he was so tired.
"You were sold and still have to count money for others." Mo Jianian gritted his teeth viciously.
"Really? But I'm not very good at math." Mo Jiayue counted on her fingers seriously, "Don't sell me, sell you. You're better at math than me." It was a rare occasion for her to admit that her brother was a little better than her.
"..." Mo Jianian was deeply silent.
He raised his head cautiously and looked in the direction of the man. Unexpectedly, while the brother and sister were talking, the man had disappeared.
Instead, it was the owner of the store who took two bottles of room temperature milk from the shelf and handed them to the brother and sister.
Mo Jianian was stunned: "Uncle, we don't want to buy milk."
The shop owner said, "Lao Mo just bought some soy sauce and asked me to give it to you two. He has already paid for it. Do you know him?"
"Brother, can I take it?" Mo Jiayue asked in a low voice.
She stared at the milk in the boss's hand with shining eyes. It was strawberry flavored, how could she refuse the strawberry flavor.
Mo Jianian nodded helplessly and took out a ten-dollar bill from his pocket: "Boss, we'll pay for it ourselves. Just buy one bottle."
He saw the price, five dollars a bottle.
The boss smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll return the money to him later."
Mo Jiayue drank the strawberry-flavored milk as she wished, and passed it to Mo Jianian: "Brother, you drink it too."
"I'm still full, you drink." What Mo Jianian said was not a lie.
Although on the one hand I wanted to save money, the main reason was that I had already eaten a meal at home before going out, and just had an ice cream, so my stomach couldn't hold anything else.
He recalled the face of the old man just now and was sure that he did not know him.
But a thought suddenly flashed through Mo Jianian's mind. He just heard the boss say that the old man's surname was also Mo. Could it be that he and Jiayue's grandfather? After all, his mother said that their family's surname was rare, and there might not be many people with the same surname in the whole city...
Song Yi was getting impatient waiting at home. Just as she was about to call Mo Zhicheng to urge him to come home for dinner, she heard the door open.
After the door was opened, the sound of the door closing was deafening, as if it was accompanied by some anger.
Mo Fei stood up and called out "Dad".
Mo Zhicheng still said "hmm" lightly and put the soy sauce heavily on the table.
Song Yi was puzzled: "You got sick again after going out to buy soy sauce? Did I provoke you?"
Mo Fei whispered, "Mom, maybe it wasn't you who did it, it was me."
After hearing this, Mo Zhicheng had an excuse and said loudly, "You are smart enough to know that this is your problem."
Of course, Mo Fei also felt puzzled: "Dad, I haven't said a word to you today."
Mo Zhicheng walked to the window sill and pointed downstairs: "You brought the children here, but you didn't let them go upstairs. They can only sit in the store pitifully. What's the meaning? Your mother and I are not allowed to see people?"
It's no wonder that Mo Zhicheng watched for so long in the store. The two children looked a bit like Mo Fei. Especially the girl, who was simply a smaller version of Mo Fei.
If you can't even recognize him, he must have Alzheimer's disease.
“…”
Five minutes later, Mo Fei led the two children upstairs.
"Hello, Grandpa. Hello, Grandma." The two children followed Mo Fei and shouted in loud voices.
Song Yi hugged the children and called them in, feeling her heart melt.
No matter how many quarrels and quarrels there were, no matter how much they hated each other, the child was innocent after all. This was the inheritance of their bloodline, the son or daughter of their daughter, they looked so alike, and they were raised so well, who wouldn't like them?
Song Yi was still afraid that Mo Zhicheng, being old and confused, would say something unpleasant again, but she found that Mo Zhicheng had already sat down at the dining table and even took out a bottle of Moutai liquor.
Mo Zhicheng doesn't have any bad habits, he just likes to drink a few glasses.
Drink when you are in a bad mood, drink when you are in a good mood, and drink Moutai when you are in the best mood.
Mo Fei was relieved to see that her parents accepted the two children so easily. She was also pleasantly surprised. Didn't this mean that her plan to ease the situation had taken a step forward?
Mo Fei smiled and said, "I'll go get the food!"
