MTL - The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor-Chapter 70 test
Chapter 70 Test
“Since Second Grandpa knows that forcing others to make things difficult, why do you still say it to embarrass my father?”
The soft-spoken voice was particularly pleasant to the ear, but it made Old Motou's face flush red, and the viciousness flashed in his eyes.
Against the light, people in the room couldn't see clearly the mocking look on Mo Yan's face, but Mo Yan could see the faces of the people in the room, so naturally he didn't miss the cruel look on Old Mo's face.
“Yan’er, don’t be rude! Why don’t you quickly apologize to your second grandfather?”
Mo Qingze frowned and shouted in a low voice, "My daughter's family must never be disrespectful to their elders no matter what."
Mo Yan curled her lips. Politeness also depends on the person, but these people open a dyeing workshop just by giving them some color. It’s strange that she can be polite! But dad’s face still has to be given.
With this thought in her mind, Mo Yan took a few steps forward and walked up to Old Mo who looked constipated. She gave him a gift and said apologetically: "Second Grandpa, Yan'er was also anxious at the moment, worried that his father would be deceived and he would be rude. Please, Second Grandpa, please don’t argue with a junior like me if you have a lot.”
Worried that your father will be deceived?
Hearing this, Old Mo was so angry that his chest hurt. The loving expression he had managed to put on suddenly froze on his face. The outstretched hand endured it again and again, so as not to throw it hard at Mo Yan, who had repeatedly ruined his good deeds. Face: "No, it's okay!"
Mo Yan couldn't be happier to be able to anger this fake holy father. She raised a bright smile and said to Mo Qingze: "Dad, the second grandpa is so kind. He didn't blame me. Please don't do it anymore." You scolded me!”
Mo Qingze: “…”
However, Mo Hong didn't hear the hint. Seeing that the conversation was diverted again, she couldn't help but become anxious and said to Mo Qingze: "Since you don't want to drive away those outsiders, then you won't drive them away. Why don't you follow Yan Yatou is sitting at home counting money, leaving the business to your brothers, and giving them a monthly salary of five taels of silver per person, since we are all a family anyway, there is no need to worry about that!"
The more Mo Hong talked about it, the more he felt that this was a good idea. At the end of the sentence, he still had an expression of "I am generous and don't care", as if he had really suffered a big loss!
Fifty taels of silver a month?
Everyone in the room was stunned by Mo Hong's words. Mo Yonglu, Mo Yongshou and others were happy, Mo Niushi and Mo Yongfu were frightened, and Xin'er Zhen'er was angry.
"hehe!"
Mo Yan laughed angrily and looked at the proud Mo Hong with even more sarcasm. Do you want to take care of their family's business? Still need five taels of silver a month? What a big tone, what a big face!
“Hey, Yan Yatou agreed?”
Seeing that the toughest little **** in the Mo family smiled, Mo Hong couldn't help but feel happy. She felt that the salary she said was too little, and it should be ten taels per person. Her three sons had to get up early every day to bear the burden. It’s not easy when the cold wind blows!
“I agree, I don’t want to stand on the street so early in the morning and feel the cold wind!” Mo Yan said with a smile.
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's eyes suddenly focused on her. Some were excited, some were anxious, and some were confused. Seeing a pair of younger siblings almost jumping out of their feet in a hurry, Mo Yan could only give them a calm look and continued: "However, this vegetable seller is also very particular about managing money. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to settle accounts. I don't know how many of the halls are here." uncle…"
“It’s just counting, who can’t do it?”
Before he finished speaking, Mo Yongshou said hurriedly, the pride on his face could not be concealed. He had gone to school. Not to mention counting, he could read quite a bit!
“Yes, yes, I can too!”
Not to be outdone, Mo Yonglu also stood up and spoke.
Seeing that the two younger brothers had spoken, Mo Yongfu said a little depressed: "Girl Yan, my cousin doesn't know how to do math, so just forget it!"
"How can we forget it? Your eldest niece agreed, so why are you so stubborn again? You want to make me angry to death, right?"
Before Mo Yan could say anything, Mo Hong burst into flames, pointing at his eldest son and saying that he hates iron and cannot turn it into steel.
“But, mother, my son really doesn’t know how to calculate. What if he makes a mistake and loses the money?”
Mo Yongfu lowered his head and acted cowardly, feeling even more inferior after being told by his mother.
Mo Yan watched the mother and son's completely different reactions in amusement, but she had a better impression of Mo Yongfu. At least he knew how to do what he could, right?
She glanced at Lao Motou again, but she met Lao Motou's gaze. She did not miss the surprise and defensiveness in his eyes, and the curvature of the corners of his lips became more and more obvious.
But this smile seemed to Lao Motou to have malicious intentions, which made him extremely uneasy.
Old Motou's reaction made Mo Yan extremely happy. She said to Mo Hong who was still scolding her son: "Since my cousin doesn't want to, Second Mistress, don't force yourself. Later, let your cousin help deliver gifts to the wealthy families in the city." Vegetables are actually cheaper than selling vegetables and taking care of accounts.”
After finishing speaking, she saw Mo Wu shaking his head at her with an anxious look on his face. Mo Yan was stunned for a moment, then understood what she meant, and shook his head with a slight smile.
As soon as Mo Wu saw it, she covered her mouth and shed tears.
Mo Yan was helpless, but couldn't say anything, so she could only shout towards the yard: "Brother Lin, Sister-in-law Lin, please come in."
“Girl Yan, why did you ask those people to come in?”
Mo Hong’s mother and son looked at Mo Yan nervously, fearing that she would regret it again.
Mo Yan ignored them and waited for Lin Da, Xiong and others to come in before saying: "Yan'er doesn't know what the abilities of the two uncles are, so let's test them now! These people help my family sell vegetables. I can only say that they are barely able." Passed, since the two uncles are in charge of the business, it is natural to be better than them, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public, and my father and I are really worried!"
Speaking of this, Mo Yan looked at Mo Hong and others who were already looking a little ugly, blinked and said jokingly: "Why are your two cousins looking so ugly? Are you afraid of being compared with them?"
“Hmph, let’s compete. Your uncle and I have studied together. How can we be compared with a few idiots?”
The stimulating method really worked. Before Old Mo Tou, who was aware of it, could stop him, Mo Yongshou couldn't wait to jump out and looked at Lin Da and others with disdain, his chin almost raised to the sky.
“Okay, Uncle Santang is indeed a ‘capable person’, so let’s get started!”
Mo Yan smiled and said loudly, but no one heard the sarcasm in her words!
A capable person? Aren't those who love to show off their talents and stand out also called "capable people"?
Lin Da, Xiong and others heard what they didn’t understand.
I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people. We are no longer a family. We were in a big trouble earlier, and now they are rushing to the door and want to be the owner of the house. How can such a thing happen?
It was because the boss didn't want to reject it outright because of his relatives' sake that they came up with this idea. They would have to be smarter later and suppress the shameless arrogance of this family. They must not embarrass the boss if they lose.
