Chapter 224 Capable Brother
In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. It was almost seven o'clock and the sky was still not fully bright. Qiao Mo scanned the area with his spiritual sense twice to make sure that there was no one within a few meters around him. He put the cart into the space and strode towards the bus station.
In order to take things out of the space, Qiao Mo did not take the bus to Donghai University, but got off the bus one stop earlier, found a deserted place to take out the cart, and then took out the winter bamboo shoots, dried bamboo shoots and dried mushrooms that Wu Yuanxin wanted from the bungalow.
Since she would be staying at the Wu family's for a few days, she took 20 kilograms of rice, 10 kilograms of dried sweet potatoes, 5 kilograms of millet, 5 kilograms of pork, and two processed chickens. She also went to the pond to catch two big fish and put them all on the cart.
Thinking that the cabbages in the Wu family's kitchen were wilted, he took a basket of bok choy, a basket of spinach, a handful of coriander, a handful of celery and a dozen lettuces from the bungalow in the space and loaded them onto the cart. Then he took the cart out of the space and pushed it to the Wu family.
"Xiao Mo, so early? Are you okay?" Wu Yuanxin and the Bai Ge couple, who were about to go out to buy groceries, saw Qiao Mo coming so early and thought something had happened. "Have you eaten? Godmother will make you a bowl of noodles."
"I've already eaten. I'm planning a lunch treat tomorrow and have a lot to prepare, so I came here early." Qiao Mo saw them carrying baskets and knew they were going to buy groceries. "Godfather, godmother, are you going to buy groceries? I brought some vegetables. Can you see if anything is missing?"
"You're such a thoughtful kid! You don't have to worry because you have your two brothers to help you." Bai Ge didn't realize she was here to help. She thought girls are always considerate. Seeing the cart piled high with things, she scolded, "Why did you bring so many things?"
"I was thinking that we'd need a lot of dishes for the banquet tomorrow. My friend had some, so I brought some over." Qiao Mo smiled and said to them.
"You're too overthinking, kid. I've already ordered the meat and fish. If I cancel it now, she can still sell it for a high price."
"The favor has already been owed, so you should take it and save it for Chinese New Year. Chinese New Year is a rare year of family reunion. With all that meat and fish, the New Year will not be too shabby, and you can also reward the children." Wu Yuan objected.
"Dad, save these for the New Year. The ones we buy from Aunt Yang are definitely not as good as the ones my younger sister brings. Use them to entertain guests tomorrow." At this time, Wu Weiqian came out. He saw that the fish was still moving its gills, and the meat should have been killed on the spot and was the freshest, so he suggested.
"Okay, hurry up and move the things." Bai Ge went to get the meat herself, and asked Wu Yuan and Xin Yuan to take their two sons to move the things.
"Hey, just give these to us. Little sister, go into the house and drink a cup of hot water to warm yourself up." Wu Weijin also came out quickly.
Qiao Mo carried two jins of winter bamboo shoots into the house with a sack in each hand, while Wu Yuan, Xin and his son moved the rest of the things into the house.
"Little sister, are there winter bamboo shoots in that sack?" Sitting on the sofa, Wu Weiqian pointed at the two sacks that Qiao Mo brought in and asked.
"Well, two kilograms of winter bamboo shoots, godfather, how do you think we should divide them?" Qiao Mo nodded.
"You're awesome." Wu Weiqian didn't expect her to be so strong. She could lift a kilogram in one hand without any effort.
"Xiao Jin, divide the winter bamboo shoots into ten portions, keep two for yourself, and give the rest to your uncle Huang and the others as New Year gifts. As for the dried bamboo shoots and dried mushrooms, keep half for yourself and add the rest to the New Year gifts." Wu Yuanxin said on behalf of Wu Weijin.
"Hey, I'll do it right away." Wu Weijin stood up to distribute the things, and Wu Weiqian also went to help.
