Chapter 9: Poor People’s Money Doesn’t Last

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Thirty dollars and six coins. That’s not bad.”

Da Bao counted the copper coins, then looked at Mo Ruyue’s sickly appearance. He hesitated for a while before saying with a straight face, “There’s a clinic in the west of the city. I’ll get you some medicine first.”

After speaking, he prepared to pack up and leave, but Mo Ruyue grabbed his hand.

“I’m not going to the clinic. It’s a waste of money. I’ll go back and make my own medicine.”

Mo Ruyue looked around and pointed at the boutique across the street. “I’ll buy you a change of clothes first.”

“You… you want to buy clothes for us?” Da Bao looked at her in disbelief.

Did he knock Mo Ruyue silly with one punch?

Instead of getting medicine for herself, she wanted to buy clothes for them?

Mo Ruyue’s face turned even darker, and she said coldly, “Your clothes are stinky and torn. They’re an eyesore.”

“Of course, people who work all day are stinky.”

Da Bao looked at her in disdain as if to say, ‘Who’s as lazy as you?!’

But he didn’t say it out loud. He just coldly rejected Mo Ruyue’s suggestion. “The prices of the ready-made clothes in the store are very high. It’s not worth it for us to spend all this money on clothes.”

After a pause, he looked at the loose fabrics in the shop, and his eyes suddenly lit up. “We can buy cloth and make the clothes ourselves.”

“I don’t know how to.” Mo Ruyue immediately retorted.

“Who’s counting on you!”

Da Bao raised his chin. “Grandma Liu is an expert in making clothes. Many people in the village buy cloth for her to make. Didn’t you ask her to make your clothes two months ago?”

Mo Ruyue lowered her head and looked at the pink linen dress on her body. She was silent for a long time before saying, “Let’s buy cloth.”

The two of them bought a few pieces of suitable cloth and went to East Street to buy some necessities for food and drinks.

As an assassin in the past, Mo Ruyue could easily earn a lot of money in the time it took for a gunshot. She had never worried about money, so when she thought about what her family lacked, she directly picked a few cheap items to buy.

“I don’t want a spoon or chopsticks. I can make it myself!” Da Bao was anxious.

Mo Ruyue furrowed her brows, finding him troublesome. “These are all cheap, a few cents each.”

Da Bao’s face was cold as he stuffed the purse into her hands and retorted, “A few cents here and a few there. Don’t you know how many things you’ve bought on the way? We’ve been busy the whole morning and only have two dollars left!”

Mo Ruyue looked at the cart full of household items and walked out of the small shop with a straight face. “The poor people’s money really can’t last long!”

Da Bao did not come out with her. He picked and chose the things in the cart. He also picked out some things that were not necessary or could be substituted with other things and returned them to the shopkeeper of the grocery store. In the end, he saved a few more dollars.

Mo Ruyue stood outside the door and watched. She didn’t stop him. She thought that she couldn’t just sit and eat like this. She had to think of some long-term ways to earn money.

She still had two plots of land in her space that she hadn’t used. The spring water didn’t look like an ordinary thing. It could replenish energy and heal wounds. Perhaps it could also have some special effects on crops.

Seeing that Da Bao would instead use his clothes to carry a pile of copper coins than ask her for help, Mo Ruyue tutted and walked back to open the purse. “Let’s go to the seed shop later to buy grain and vegetables for planting. The land at home is still barren. ”

This time, Da Bao did not object. He put all the copper coins back into the purse, stuffed it into his arms, and covered the lapels tightly. Then, he dragged the cart forward and arrived at the door of the seed shop not long after.

“Give me the purse. You can rest here for a while and look after the cart.”

Mo Ruyue grabbed Da Bao, who was about to enter the door and reached out to him for the purse.

“What would you buy? Don’t buy all kinds of random things. We don’t have that much spare money!”

Da Bao protected the purse tightly. He did not want to return the items under the shopkeeper’s smiling face every time.

“Do you still want to go back earlier?”

Mo Ruyue’s forehead twitched, and a vein popped out. A little brat had taught her not to squander money. If her acquaintances knew about this, they would laugh at her.

Da Bao thought of his younger brothers and sister, who were alone at home, and finally gave in. He handed the purse to Mo Ruyue and squatted under the roof outside the shop, resting while watching the cart.

Mo Ruyue went into the shop and unceremoniously bought a bag of some common grain seeds and vegetables. She even bought a few fruit seeds.

She bought many things, and the shopkeeper even gave her an extra bag of seeds. After weighing the pros and cons, Mo Ruyue also chose to get some flower seeds.

There was a flower shop in the city, which seemed to have a good customer base. Dried flowers could also be made into sachets, or flower petals could be made into flower cakes. In short, there were many ways to make money.

When she entered and exited the space, she could clearly feel that the flow of time in the space was different from the outside world. Often, she stayed in the space for a long time, but when she came out, it felt like only a moment had passed.

This way, the crops in the space would mature much faster than in the outside world. She could buy the seeds once and for all.

When Mo Ruyue walked out of the shop, she returned the half-deflated purse to Da Bao. Not long after, she heard a furious roar, “What did you buy this time?!”

On the way back, Da Bao pulled the cart and walked in front without saying a word. Mo Ruyue followed slowly behind.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to help, but her weak body was holding her back. In addition, she had lost too much blood before and hadn’t recuperated properly. At this time, her steps were so weak that she couldn’t keep up.

“Da Bao, take the things home first. I’ll go and pick some herbs on the way back.”

Mo Ruyue found an excuse and prepared to go into the portable space to drink some spring water after sending Da Bao away.

“Up to you. No one’s going to look for you when you’re late.”

Da Bao said this and walked away without looking back.

“Stupid kid. You’re not cute at all.”

Mo Ruyue flashed into the portable space and went straight to the spring to drink a few mouthfuls of water.

The clear spring water was originally a little cold, but when it entered her stomach, it was as if a ball of fire had been raised. The warmth swept away all the fatigue in her body.

Mo Ruyue, who had recovered her strength, slipped out of the space. She really did see some herbs on the side of the mountain and planned to pick some to plant in the portable space so that she wouldn’t have to run back and forth to the mountains when she needed them in the future.

Although the Qin Family Village was not a rich village, the mountain range that surrounded it was rich in resources.

It didn’t take Mo Ruyue much effort to pick a large number of medicinal herbs, such as ones that could stop blood flow, dissolve blood clots, clear heat, and detoxify. She even picked a few of the medicinal herbs that were good for the body.

She had forgotten to ask for a basket, so she had thrown most of the medicinal herbs into her space. She would slowly sort them out when she went back. She carried the rest in her arms and quickly walked home.

A rustling sound suddenly came from the bushes. Mo Ruyue’s ears twitched. She immediately stopped and slowly squatted down. She felt for a few stones on the ground and held them in her hand.

That rustling sound stopped for a while before it sounded again. This time, Mo Ruyue did not hesitate to make a move. The stones in her hand shot out like light beams. The sound of something heavy falling could be heard a moment later.
