Chapter 133: How Big is Antou Town?
As she spoke, Osmanthus' two small hands had already grasped Mo's arm, gently swaying back and forth, with a strong coquettish flavor.
The mention of osmanthus flowers suddenly brought a smile to Mo's eyes.
This is what Mo's family was most happy about!
It is said that when beating a snake, one must hit it seven inches from its head. Similarly, when flattering someone, one must also choose the right direction to be effective.
The words of Gui Hua happened to be to the liking of Mo Shi, who was delighted in his heart. He very generously took out ten cents from his pocket and handed it over to Gui Hua's hands.
"You little devil, this money is for you, but don't waste it, got it?" Although the money had been given to her, Mo didn't forget to remind Guihua not to squander the cash.
What can ten cents do? Guifang didn't know specifically, but she was certain that it was enough to buy some candy for Chuyande.
Just then, after buying candies for Chu Yande, he himself wanted to do something else, but was afraid it wouldn't work. In that case, wouldn't his great plan in his heart come to nothing?
Actually, osmanthus originally wanted to find an ironwork shop and ask the blacksmith to help make some small tools, but now it seems that ten cents can't even buy materials, let alone have someone make something.
Looking at Guihua taking the money but not smiling, Madam Mo couldn't help but ask: "What? Don't you think I gave you enough money?"
"No, no, Mother, this is enough money." Guihua smiled and apologized, afraid of really upsetting her mother.
Osmanthus also understands that this family has just been divided, and in the future, there will be many places to use silver money. If she asks for too much now, she is afraid that Madam Mo will get angry and ask for the ten cents back, then wouldn't she have worked hard for nothing?
Actually, Guihua was overthinking this time. Since Moshi had already given the money to Guihua, he wouldn't ask for it back easily. It's just that Moshi didn't want his child to develop a habit of lavish spending from a young age, so he put on a stern face.
"Osmanthus, we are all poor people, can't compare with those big officials and landlords who have wealth and power. And what's the point of living a life that's just about eating, wearing and using things? But none of these things can be had without spending money. So we can't live extravagantly, you know?"
Mo was patiently explaining things to Gui Hua, unaware that Gui Hua had already understood them long ago.
However, Guihua was still quite obedient and did not argue with Mrs. Mo, but instead nodded her head cleverly to show that she understood.
Because of this, the mother and daughter's movements were not big, and their voices were also intentionally lowered, so the others in the carriage didn't notice what they were talking about.
The horse carriage had been traveling for so long that Gui Hua herself couldn't remember, anyway they chatted and laughed all the way, and it didn't feel lonely at all.
Waiting to hear Guan Dashan say that he is going to the town, Gui Hua suddenly realized that about a thousand or eight hundred meters ahead, there appeared a village of no small scale.
On this road, many villages passed by on both sides of the road, big and small. Gui Hua listened to Guan Da Shan's introduction, some remembered, some didn't.
The village in front of us seems to be the largest one among all the villages we have just seen. According to Guanda Mountain's introduction, that should be the legendary Antao Town.
Although she had already guessed that Antao Town wouldn't be too big in her heart, when she really saw it with her own eyes, Guihua couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
