I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies
306 The Function Of The Waist Token
The babies in the courtyard rushed out and surrounded Mo Ruyue, chattering away.
Mo Ruyue didnât feel that it was noisy at all as she was surrounded by them. This was the atmosphere of a family that she wanted.
âMother, whatâs that Big Black is carrying? Did you buy anything good from the city again?â
San Bao was the first to go and get the horse, and he was also the first to notice the box hanging on the horseâs back.
âMother, did you buy us new yearâs gifts? I saw that Qingfei and the others were all wearing new clothes, silk flowers, and new stationery for the new year.â
Er Bao was pulled back by Da Bao as soon as he said this. He immediately turned to look at him and asked in surprise, âBig Brother, why are you pulling me?â
âMother has just returned. Let her rest and catch her breath.â
Mo Ruyue could understand Da Baoâs true intentions. He was afraid that Er Baoâs words would bring back bad memories and make her feel guilty.
This child looked boorish on the outside, but he was very meticulous. To some extent, he was even more understanding than Er Bao.
âLady Qin, as soon as you came back, the babiesâ thoughts all flew to you. They threw away the work in their hands.â
Aunt Liu walked out of the courtyard and looked at this scene of âa loving mother and a filial son.â She was very emotional, but she started to tease him.
âAunt Liu, sorry to trouble you again.â Mo Ruyue also smiled and greeted her.
âTsk, what kind of trouble is this? I should be thanking you for inviting us to spend the new year together.â
Aunt Liu shook her head. She didnât feel tired at all. With these babies as company, the old coupleâs days were getting more and more exciting.
Mo Ruyue saw Aunt Liuâs heartfelt smile and couldnât help but think that if she were to leave with the babies, the old couple would probably return to their cold and lonely days. She didnât know how long it would take for them to adapt.
However, there was no banquet that didnât come to an end in this world. Meeting and parting continuously, this was life.
âGrandma Liu, Mother came back early today, and thereâs one more person working in the afternoon. Iâll definitely be able to finish washing everything today!â
When Tang Tang came out, she was carrying her own clothes. She was so excited that she forgot about it. It was only when she heard Aunt Liuâs voice that she remembered it and quickly showed her the clothes.
âOh my, my little baby, look at your hands. Theyâre all red from the cold. Why didnât you put down your clothes? why are you in such a hurry to act like a spoiled child to your mother?â
Aunt Liu rebuked. She quickly took the clothes from Tang Tangâs hands and covered her hands with her hands, breathing hot air.
âAunt Liu, letâs go in and talk. Da Bao, you and Er Bao carry the things down. Be careful, thereâs something inside that you canât touch.â
Mo Ruyue walked over and led everyone into the house.
Anyway, the work couldnât be finished in a short time, so she decided to take a rest and open the âblind boxâ first. She still didnât know what gifts the Ouyang and Bai families had sent, so she was also very curious.
âLady Qin, how about this, Iâll go home to take a look first. The clothes at home havenât been washed. Iâll come back for work in the afternoon after youâve eaten and taken a break.â
Aunt Liu also saw the big box and knew what kind of gift Mo Ruyue had brought back. If she was there, it wouldnât be convenient for her to open it, so she took the initiative to leave to avoid suspicion.
Mo Ruyue didnât ask her to stay. She had also prepared a generous new year gift for the Liu family. She could use this time to tidy it up and give it out when it was the new year.
After Aunt Liu left, Mo Ruyue gathered all the babies and asked Er Bao to prepare the account books. They were ready to start counting the accounts.
It was no exaggeration to say that the things in the Qin familyâs warehouse were much more valuable than the warehouses of many rich families.
âMother, the new yearâs gift that the Bai family sent last time has also been registered. Do you want to take a look first?â
Er Bao held an extra booklet in his hand, which recorded the three carriages of new yearâs goods sent by the Bai family.
Because the treatment for the mother and daughter of the Bai family did not mention the consultation fee and medical expenses, in order to avoid confusion, Er Bao made an extra booklet as a note.
âIâm done. This batch isnât finished yet. Old Master Bai said that there will be more gifts on new yearâs eve.â Mo Ruyue shook her head. From the perspective of the consultation fee, it was already too much. But for the Bai family, three lives could not be replaced by mere money. Although they would not give all their wealth to Mo Ruyue, it would be more like an insult to themselves if they gave too little.
The babies were already used to seeing their mother making money so well, but when the box was opened and the things in the layers of horizontal shelves were taken out, their eyes were fixed on it.
The topmost grid was filled with small ornaments that even a child could hold. Each of them was small and exquisite and extremely cute. They looked like a set, and the material was only tourmaline.
On the second grid was a set of hair accessories, made with gold and Jade.
On the third grid was also a set of jewelry. It was Emerald with an excellent water source. Just that pair of earrings alone could buy more than half of the county.
On the fourth grid were three booklets. One was the title deed, one was the title deed, and one was a list. Just by looking at the thickness of the three booklets, it was not difficult to imagine how many title deeds were in there.
The space in the last grid was the largest, but it was a box over another box. When it was removed to the end, a simple waist token was revealed, on which the word âOuyangâ were written.
Mo Ruyue really couldnât tell what the waist token was made of. It had the texture of Jade and was slightly cold to the touch. After a while, it became slightly warm. It felt like warm Jade, but it wasnât warm Jade.
She didnât think too much about it. She would know the material after she tested it in the tool room in her space. There was no need to think about it now.
The most important thing was the use of this waist token.
It should have the same function as the âno-walkingâ waist buckle that the Bai family had given her m before, which was a token that could be used to seek help.
This was much more practical than giving a mountain of gold and silver. After all, a mountain of gold and silver could be used up eventually. However, this token did not indicate how many times it could be used. It might be a life-saving straw at some critical moment.
Er Bao took down notes while reading. When he finished writing, his hands were shaking.
These were all valuable things. If they were to just leave them at home, were they not afraid of attracting thieves?
Even if his motherâs martial arts were extremely high and no one in the entire Qin Village dared to have any ideas about the family, if the news were to be leaked and even more thieves were attracted, even if his mother had three heads and six arms, it would be like a good tiger couldnât hold up against a pack of wolves!
Er Baoâs mind immediately filled with scenes, and his palms immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
Mo Ruyue looked up inadvertently and saw Er Baoâs appearance. His eyes were straight, his teeth were clenched, and the pen in his hand was almost broken by him. His fingers were clenched so tightly that they turned white, as if he had used up all his strength.
