I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

44 Buying Furnitures

At this time, the mother and son duo had arrived at the furniture store. The front of the store was not large, but the store was decorated with exquisite furniture models. If a customer liked one, they would be escorted by the staff to the warehouse to see the real thing.

As soon as Er Bao saw the models, his mouth opened wide. Every now and then, he had to take a sharp breath to suck back the saliva that was about to drip down.

Mo Ruyue walked around the shop. The furniture with special wood and precious materials was displayed on the counter at the back. The furniture displayed in front was made of common furniture wood.

She preferred cypress and camphor wood furniture.

Both have an aroma. Cypress can be used as medicine, soothe nerves, and nourish the heart. It was not only good for her but also for the children.

Camphor wood can keep all insects away, especially suitable for furniture such as wardrobes, racks, and tables.

After a final comparison, Mo Ruyue chose cypress wood furniture for the lockers in the warehouse.

She said to the staff who had been following her all the time, “I want to buy four sets of this cypress furniture. Three for the bedrooms and one for the study.”

“Ah?”

The shop assistant was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect this woman, who was ordinarily dressed, to be extravagant the moment she opened her mouth. Not to mention four sets of furniture, even one set would cost at least five or six taels of silver.

“Ah, don’t tell me it is out of stock.”

Mo Ruyue frowned.

That day, when she went to the Qin family’s new house to eavesdrop, she had also deliberately observed the layout of the rooms in the courtyard. One of the main rooms was for her and Tang Tang to live in, two of the side rooms were for the four babies to live in pairs, and the last one was for the babies to use as a study room. Sooner or later, they would have to study and learn how to write. They couldn’t be illiterate for the rest of their lives.

However, if there wasn’t enough furniture now, she might have to adjust her plan.

When the shop assistant heard this, he immediately returned to his senses and waved his hands. “No, no. It’s available. It’s available! But Miss, are you sure you want four sets of furniture?”

Although they were all cheap cypress furniture, four sets would still be worth at least twenty taels of silver, which was not a small amount.

“Mother, why don’t we... just hire a carpenter to do it?”

Er Bao tugged at Mo Ruyue’s sleeve and squeezed a sentence through his gritted teeth.

“Have you lost your mind? It will take a lot of time if we hire a carpenter now to do it.”

Mo Ruyue glanced at Er Bao. She had only spent twenty taels of silver, and Er Bao’s face was already ashen.

No. The habit of spending money had to be cultivated from a young age. She, Mo Ruyue, had completed the first kill in her life at the age of ten. Since then, she had never worried about money.

Although she started out as a poor dog, she was given free space at least. If she still couldn’t make it big, then she would really be letting down her title of “undefeatable king” in her previous life.

“But... But we only have one ...”

Er Bao almost revealed everything he had today. Fortunately, he covered his mouth in time. His eyes were darting around and filled with annoyance.

“Don’t be afraid. I have enough money. ”

Mo Ruyue reached into her pocket and took out a banknote worth fifty taels of silver from the space under cover of her clothes.

Last time, she used this trick to confirm Qin Shi’s theft crime. The clothes in her hand actually had nothing. The banknote was taken out of the space, but the flow of time in the two places was different. It was only a moment of movement, and no one realized that she had disappeared.

Er Bao’s eyeballs almost fell out when he saw her take out another silver banknote. ‘Mother spent so much money? Then wouldn’t big brother go crazy if he knew?’

Mo Ruyue calmly kept the silver notes back in her arms. At that time, she was just taking out some money to buy things for her in case Da Bao was stingy. This was a new house. With Qin Shi’s character, she could even tear down the house and leave nothing behind.

However, she did not expect Da Bao to add another fifty taels after giving her fifty taels. Hence, she could not give out the fifty taels of silver in her arms. She had originally planned to put it back secretly, but now that she had spent twenty taels on the furniture and there were still many things that she had not bought yet, it seemed that the fifty taels of silver in her arms could still be put to use.

The smile on the shop assistant’s face was almost frozen. He couldn’t wait to sign the contract with Mo Ruyue immediately. Those were four sets of furniture. Even if they were made of ordinary wood, his commission would not be small.

Who would have thought that the adults didn’t seem to care about the money, but the children were very concerned. The shop assistant was anxious, but he didn’t dare to rush them, afraid that they would really not buy it.

In this kind of emotional suffering, he finally heard a beautiful voice. “Just do as I said. Four sets.”

“Alright!”

The shop assistant was overjoyed. Afraid that Mo Ruyue would go back on her word at any time, he hurriedly led her to the warehouse behind. He even started to jabber.

“Lady, let’s go to the warehouse and see the real thing. They’re all hand-made by experienced carpenters, convenient, and extremely durable. The appearance is also outstanding. I guarantee that you’ll be delighted after you see them!”

Mo Ruyue didn’t reply. She had seen the model first, and now it was time to see the real thing.

The warehouse behind the shop was huge. After all, there were so many sets of furniture. At the same time, it showed the confidence of the shopkeeper in his goods.

A furniture set wasn’t cheap, but he still prepared ample space for stock. It was evident that he had quite the confidence and boldness.

They could smell the strong wood fragrance as soon as they entered the warehouse. Mo Ruyue took a deep breath. The smell of woodchips was something she had always liked. contemporary romance

The shop assistant first showed her the camphor wood cabinets and boxes of different sizes. They were all prepared to store things that were easy to get wet or vulnerable to termite attacks. She looked around and chose a few boxes and cabinets of different designs, but she did not buy too many.

Next was the main furniture. The four sets of cypress furniture would be divided into three bedrooms and a study room. The three bedrooms would be divided into the babies’ and her own. This time, the selection was more detailed.

Very soon, Mo Ruyue walked out of the furniture store. The shop assistant smiled like a Cheshire cat and sent her all the way to the outside of the store. After walking far away, Er Bao turned back to look and whispered to Mo Ruyue, “Mother, that person is still waving at me.”

“That’s normal. We’ve spent almost thirty taels of silver. If it were you, you’d treat him like a god of fortune because he can take a commission. The more we spend, the more he earns.”

Mo Ruyue was idle and had nothing to do, so she explained a few words to Er Bao. This was some basic common sense. After the babies learned it, as long as they spent money in the future, they should be generous and not be restrained. Otherwise, they would be bullied by some unscrupulous shop owners.

Next, she brought Er Bao to the livestock market to ask around.

In the past, the yard was called a yard, but the wall was so low that an adult could climb over it with a stretch of their hand, not to mention that there were four or five dog holes in the wall.

She didn’t dare to raise chickens and ducks in her house for fear of them running away or being eaten by foxes, weasels, and the like. In the future, when she moved to a big house, the courtyard wall would be as tall as half a person. Then, she could consider making the house more lively.
