Su Nanxi ignored Mo Wenying. "Hmph, she wants so much."
Grandma Mo thought she hadn't paid yet and was about to pay when Mo Wenying pulled her aside and whispered, "Mother! Are you crazy? That huge bundle of cloth must cost a fortune. You paid without even asking. Do you have too much money? Half a bolt is fine, the rest can be returned."
Grandma Mo pulled her hand back. "It's alright. It's a rare opportunity to come to town. If you want to buy something, just buy it."
Mo Wenying was stunned. When did her mother become so generous, as if money were free!
Look how protective her mother is of her daughter-in-law! What kind of mother-in-law treats her daughter-in-law like that? Where's her authority? The daughter-in-law will surely get away with stepping on her head!
Su Nanxi picked up the cloth and left. Old Mrs. Mo hurried to pay, but the shopkeeper told her that she had already paid. She was stunned for a moment, then pulled her daughter and followed her out.
Mo Wenying began to warn Old Lady Mo, telling her to be more careful about things, to manage the family finances well, and to maintain some authority...
Su Nanxi was standing nearby. She knew that her sister-in-law was just saying it to her on purpose, so she didn't take it to heart. But the more the other woman said, the more outrageous it became, and she got angry.
Did I eat your rice or drink your meat soup? Why are you being so nosy! And you're even telling your own mother what to do!
Tsk tsk!
I'll show you how extravagant I can be!
So Su Nanxi started her shopping spree, buying whatever she liked and throwing it into her basket without asking Old Lady Mo for money or caring about the reactions of those around her.
Candy and biscuits were relatively expensive and hard to come by in ancient times, but Su Nanxi grabbed several handfuls without batting an eye.
The Mo couple remained silent. They knew that the mute woman must have sold the medicinal herbs for money. It was her money, and they had agreed that they couldn't interfere with how she used it.
Mo Wenying, unaware of the situation, couldn't help but speak up when she saw Su Nanxi spending money like this. "Third sister-in-law, you can't spend money like this! If you spend all the money, how will we manage in the future? There are more than ten people in the family to eat and drink! As a daughter-in-law, you have to think about the family and be frugal!"
Su Nanxi nodded, popped a candy into her mouth, and found it very sweet, much more authentic than the ones in her space.
Mo Wenying thought Su Nanxi had taken her words to heart and wanted to continue, but Su Nanxi walked away with the candy and cookies.
Mo Wenying was speechless. What kind of person was this?! She was the eldest sister, after all!
Su Nanxi didn't care whose older sister she was, nor did she pay attention to the old couple behind her constantly comforting their daughter. She strolled around leisurely.
The four-person group finally arrived in town. Because they had sold wild animals before, the family there immediately accepted the goods and paid them, seeing that they were all good stuff. So the four of them quickly had some free time to look for the person.
The four of them hadn't seen Mo Wenying for a long time, and they chatted for a while after meeting.
Mo Wenying wanted to complain, but seeing that the four people treated Su Nanxi very well and didn't say a word of reproach even after buying her candy, she was puzzled and swallowed back what she wanted to say.
She didn't know what had happened at home and dared not say more, for fear of incurring the displeasure of her sisters-in-law and having to be mindful of their attitude when she returned to her parents' home in the future.
When they parted, Su Nanxi grabbed a handful of candy and cookies and gave them to the child. The child didn't dare to take them, so she stuffed them directly into his pocket.
Madam Qin smiled and said, "I'll accept what my aunt-in-law gives me and take it back to share with my younger brother and sister."
The child looked at Mo Wenying, who gave an awkward smile. "Then take it! Hurry up and thank your auntie!"
Chen Xiang received the candy and happily said, "Thank you, Auntie!"
After they parted ways, Su Nanxi found a carpentry shop she liked. After carefully examining the ready-made tables and chairs, she felt that the carpenter's skills were good and decided to have them custom-made there.
The carpenter received the blueprints, his eyes widened, and he looked terrified. "Young lady, where did you get these blueprints?"
Su Nanxi frowned. Why do you have to ask someone how they got the job when you're helping them with their work?
"No, no!" The carpenter waved his hand. "I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that the blueprints are too shocking. I couldn't help but ask. If it's inconvenient for you to say, then don't say."
It's definitely not convenient to say!
What should she say?
Grandma Mo thought the painting was bad and the carpenter couldn't understand it. "Master, is the painting really that bad?"
"No, no!" the carpenter waved his hand again. "It's just that the drawings are too good. I've been a carpenter for decades and I've never seen such good blueprints. This wheelchair will definitely be amazing when it's made, and it will be very functional."
The Mo family was delighted to hear this, and the carpenter said it could be done, so they immediately paid a deposit.
When they returned, the Mo family carried a bag of flour and half a bag of rice.
The people riding in the oxcart made a commotion and all tried to get close to him.
That's for sure; not everyone has the ability to buy so much rice and flour!
Su Nanxi was squeezed into a small corner, looking at these people with great helplessness.
Having finally returned to the village, she was the first to jump off the oxcart and head straight home.
Mo Qinghe couldn't go with them and was sullen all morning.
Mo Dongcheng was already experienced; seeing his third uncle's expression, he quickly moved away and secretly played in the sand.
When Su Nanxi returned, she saw the two of them doing their own thing and couldn't help but find it amusing.
She ran over and stuffed a candy into Mo Qinghe's mouth. Then, with her big, round eyes, she tilted her head and looked at him, as if asking if it was sweet.
Mo Qinghe was caught off guard when something was stuffed into his mouth. He thought it was Mo Dongcheng and was about to get angry when he looked up and saw that it was the wife he had been thinking about for so long!
His wife was looking at him expectantly. He moved his mouth and then realized that his wife had stuffed a piece of candy into his mouth. All his anger and resentment vanished instantly.
He felt incredibly sweet inside, and he said it was sweet too.
Su Nanxi smiled happily when she heard him say it was sweet.
Mo Qinghe felt a little dizzy. His wife's eyes had long eyelashes, and when she smiled, they were like colorful butterflies fluttering their wings, so beautiful! Her eyes were like jewels, dazzling and bright, as if they could speak!
Without realizing it, he started laughing too.
Su Nanxi saw it, as if she had discovered a new continent, and excitedly moved closer, staring with wide eyes.
Her cheap husband started laughing, laughing so hard that even the most beautiful woman paled in comparison!
Mo Qinghe knew that his smile had piqued his wife's interest, so he let her look at him to her heart's content. Only then did he realize that his wife had very big eyes!
The two of them looked at each other, completely absorbed in their own world.
Soon, this world was shattered, because the rest of the Mo family returned.
The children who went to the mountains returned and happened to run into people returning from town, which made things lively.
"Third Aunt! Third Aunt!"
The children rushed in, shouting.
Su Nanxi snapped out of her reverie, and Mo Qinghe instantly stopped laughing and nonchalantly started chewing on the candy.
Grandma Mo laughed and scolded, "A bunch of naughty monkeys, all they do is make a fuss as soon as they get back, as if they're afraid others won't know they're back!"
Seeing that everyone had returned, Mo Dongcheng finally dared to come over.
Su Nanxi took out candies and cookies and gave them to the children one by one, just one or two each.
The child jumped up with joy when he saw it was candy, "Thank you, Auntie!"
"What about mine?"
