After Uncle Mo and his son left, Mo Rao told her father everything that had happened during the day.

When Father Mo heard that his daughter had spent over thirty taels of silver on hundreds of pieces of clothes with mold spots, he was a little confused.

Later, he heard that his daughter could clean them. This made Mo's father feel a little helpless.

If this can remove the mildew stains, then the clothes can be resold. Who knows, they might actually fetch a lot of money. Mo's father was astonished by his daughter's ability.

Is such a capable daughter still his daughter?

This doubt only lasted three seconds. After all, who else could the person in front of him be if not his daughter? This was his real daughter, there was no mistake. Maybe it was just that his daughter had opened her mind.

Because they were worried about Mo's father and Mo Qingshan, the whole family hadn't eaten much at night. Now I heard that the two of them hadn't eaten yet.

Mrs. Mo hurried to the kitchen to cook, and with the bright moonlight, she didn't have to cook in the dark.

Mo Rao bought pork in town, and Old Lady Mo cut off a piece to make shredded pork noodles.

Old Mrs. Mo made a lot of noodles, and the whole family gathered around the table and each had another bowl of noodles.

Mo Rao touched her stomach and sighed: "I'm so full! Grandma, your cooking skills are so good that you can open a noodle shop."

You are just sweet-talking, Mrs. Mo said angrily.

Grandma, I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, you can ask my eldest brother, my eldest sister-in-law, and my younger brothers and sisters.

"Yes! Grandma, these noodles are really delicious," Zhang Lanlan said sincerely.

She hadn't eaten rice or flour since her parents passed away, let alone meat. The food she'd eaten in the past two days since she got married was beyond her wildest dreams. It was so delicious she wanted to swallow it.

Mo Erniang said: If it weren't for the delicious food that grandma cooks, would the second family cling to grandma? If it weren't for the fact that there was no other way to split the family, they wouldn't let grandma leave.

After dinner, several people chatted with each other. It was quite lively.

Father Mo found an oil lamp, lit it, and quickly took out all the silver from his pocket. Everyone was overjoyed when they saw the silver.

Father Mo pushed the silver in front of Mo Rao and said, "The tiger was sold for a total of 320 taels." This is 300 taels. Father Mo said to everyone, "This tiger was carried back from the mountains by the eldest girl. This silver naturally belongs to the eldest girl, so don't be greedy."

I'll take charge of the remaining twenty taels. Give two taels to your eldest brother, two taels to your father and me, and the remaining sixteen taels to your grandmother.

"Dad, we're not jealous. Life like this is something we couldn't even imagine before. And life like this is what our eldest sister gave us. So we're not jealous," said Mo Erniang. Mo Sanniang also followed suit.

Zhang Lanlan also thought there was nothing wrong with this. Her sister-in-law was really kind to them and her family. So she had no objection to her father-in-law's actions. Besides, this was originally carried down from the mountains.

The other people in the Mo family had no objection to Mo's father's actions.

The reason why Mr. Mo did this was because he didn't want his children at home and felt that he could get something for nothing.

Their efforts were justified. Furthermore, their eldest daughter had already changed their family's life. They couldn't be ungrateful.

Mo Rao looked at the white silver in front of her and sighed: What did I say, silver is something a bastard can earn again after losing it, and now it comes back after spending it.

When Old Lady Mo heard Mo Rao's words, her scalp throbbed. She glanced at the silver in front of Mo Rao and decisively took it in front of her.

I'll keep this money for you and give it to you when you get married.

At the rate you spend money, mountains of gold and silver wouldn't be enough for you to squander.

And in the future, I can't go into the mountains anymore. My family has plenty of money now, and we can get by. There's no need to risk my life.

Yes, my daughter. Let's not do such dangerous things again.

Mo Rao's eyes followed the movement of the silver. They moved with it. Mo Rao thought, silver, silver. My silver just flew away. In those ancient times, there were no entertainment activities. No television, no mobile phones. And no places for people to have fun. It was just about spending money to improve the quality of life? And to feel a sense of existence. Now, even spending money is controlled. What is the meaning of life then?

Mo Rao said with a look of resentment, "Grandma, please leave some for me! If I lose the joy of spending money, what hope do I have in life? It's just miserable!"

You're a spendthrift! In the past, when we couldn't even eat, we called it hardship. Now, you're not just suffering, you're wasting money,' my old lady said angrily.

Grandma, my dear grandma. My motivation for making money is to buy, buy, buy! If you don’t give me money, I feel like the sky above my head is gray. Mo Rao shook Grandma Mo’s arm.

The whole family was annoyed by Mo Rao's behavior. Mo Rao never acted like a spoiled child in the past.

Finally, Mrs. Mo couldn't persuade Mo Rao any more, so she said, "If you promise me that you won't go into the mountains to hunt again, I'll give you fifty taels."

"Okay, we won't go to the mountains anymore, I promise." Mo Rao raised a hand.

Seeing Mo Rao's serious look, Old Lady Mo squinted her eyes and said, "You'd better do what you say."

After saying that, he took out fifty taels from the silver in front of him and pushed it in front of Mo Rao. "Here are fifty taels for you. You should have quite a bit of silver left over from before, so spend it sparingly."

“Got it, grandma,” Mo Rao said happily.

Her grandmother gave her money, so naturally she was allowed to spend it however she wanted. Just thinking about it is exciting!

Mo Baoshan said in a baby voice: Grandma, you gave money to my elder sister, why didn’t you give money to me?

You want money! If you want money, earn it yourself.

Grandma is partial, Mo Baoshan said with a pout.

Old Mrs. Mo fished around in her bosom and pulled out a copper coin. "Grandma, here's a copper coin for you. Don't be like your sister. We don't have that much money to spend."

Thank you, grandma. Mo Baoshan happily took the copper coin.

Under the watchful eyes of her family, Mrs. Mo placed Mo Rao's silver in a separate jar and sealed it.

The money the Mo family spent was placed in another jar by Old Lady Mo. She carried the two jars back to her room. The family members tacitly avoided following her because they knew she was going to hide the money.

Father Mo said: The land next door has been bought, and the people who will build the house have been found.

Now we just have to wait for the materials to arrive so the builders can start work.

Mo's mother said with some concern: If we build a house, where will our family live?

Father Mo said, "I discussed this with Qingshan today. We're thinking of building half of the house first. Once it's finished, we'll all move in, then tear down this side and build the other half. That way, our whole family will have a place to live."

Everyone agreed that Father Mo's idea was feasible. The family sat around the table and chatted for a while before returning to their rooms to rest.
