Chapter 3: Mother-Daughter Conversation
After Tang Mo returned home, he closed the door of the supermarket, sat on the sofa chair behind the cash register, and began to count his small treasury.
Just this afternoon, she spent more than 8,000 yuan.
Changing the rope for the jade pendant, buying medicine, and going to the sports store to buy a few sets of equipment, although these three things alone cost her half of her savings, she didn't feel distressed at all, after the end of the world, there is nothing more life-saving than these few things.
She had never doubted whether the end of the world would come, because the jade pendant that was opened in advance and the spiritual power that was faintly floating in her body and was about to break through the air were the most powerful proof.
There is not much money left, she must think carefully and strive to spend every penny on the knife print.
Tang Mo turned on his phone and looked at the date, there were only 7 days left before the end of the world, and she had to go back to school on the last day, so for her, time was precious and there was no waste at all.
In the last half a year at school, although Tang Mo's life in school was quite difficult, it was not without gains.
The places that can be surrounded by fog are all feng shui treasures, which is the conclusion reached by scientists in previous lives through analysis.
And the easiest thing to come out of Feng Shui treasure land is rare treasures.
In the previous life, the ponds, grasslands, and back mountains in the school were all found by students searching for supplies.
And Tang Mo also found a mushroom with 5 spirit point attributes, but unfortunately she didn't think the spirit points were useful at that time, so she exchanged it for a complete bread with others to fill her stomach.
It wasn't until she came out of school later that she realized how valuable the mushrooms she had used to exchange for a loaf of bread were, and it turned out that the treasures that could enhance the attribute points were so rare that even the treasures that only added one attribute would be sold out on the market.
Later, she couldn't touch any strange treasures anymore, and the comprehensive attribute value was just mediocre.
So she must go back again, those strange treasures in the school, she must not give up.
Compared with the outside world, the living environment in the school is still much better, in the previous life, she was able to survive in the school for half a year with nothing, and in this life, with the jade pendant as a dependence and complete preparation, she has no reason to retreat.
As for mom?
Tang Mo's eyes lowered slightly, if she remembered correctly, her mother would have told her about that incident tonight.
The weather was already a little cool at the end of summer, and it was okay to wear half-sleeves at this time last year, but now it's a little cooler with a slightly thinner jacket.
In the evening, when the sun was gradually setting, Tang Mo calculated the time to go to the market to buy a lot of vegetables, and looked at the uncles and aunts in the market who were bargaining with the vendors for a dime, her eyes gradually reddened.
The most beautiful thing is the pyrotechnics, but this kind of pyrotechnics can't last long.
Half a month after the end of the world, the state released a large number of 5D virtual ID watches to bind personal identity and release information.
The fact that 5D technology has not been released in pre-apocalyptic countries is obviously a long time ago, perhaps many years before that, aware of what was going to happen in the future and began to prepare.
Accustomed to the cold-blooded human feelings of the last days, Tang Mo was not a virgin, and he didn't want to be a savior.
From childhood to adulthood, Tang Mo's personality has been lively and cheerful, although she has always been the first academic bully in school, but she is not a nerd with a smart brain.
In the eyes of outsiders, she is just a girl who loves to laugh and be sensible and doesn't talk much.
But what everyone doesn't know is that Tang Mo's EQ is even better than her IQ.
She's kind, but she's more transparent about many things than anyone else thinks.
His ability is meager, and what he can do is even more limited, and he has to do his best to protect his mother by living his own life.
As for the rest, let it be left to the destiny of heaven.
After returning from the market, Tang Mo went into the kitchen and worked for a long time, brought out four dishes and one soup, and waited for Lin Mu to come back and eat together.
When Lin Yi hurried home and was about to go into the kitchen to cook, she was really surprised to see such a scene on the dining table, and she suddenly felt like a girl in my family.
The two of them sat at the dining table, chatting warmly about home cooking while eating.
Seeing the beautiful mother in front of him, Tang Mo's hand holding the chopsticks trembled a little.
She misses her mother so much, and in the last days she thinks countless times that she is willing to exchange all her life for seeing her mother again, but she can't.
Now her mother is sitting in front of her, if she is not afraid of scaring her mother, she really wants to go over and just hug her mother and never let go.
"Mom wants to talk to you about something."
At the end of dinner, Lin Yi put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and looked at Tang Mo a little crampedly.
Here it comes! She remembered correctly, it was today.
Tang Mo knew what Lin Yi was going to say, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at his mother seriously.
"It's like this, when you were in college, Mom... Mom has a boyfriend, but she didn't tell you for fear of affecting your studies. Now that you're about to do an internship in your senior year, Mom is thinking about letting you meet with your Uncle Wen for a meal, and if you don't object, Mom and Uncle Wen will get the certificate. What do you think? ”
After finishing speaking, Lin Yi looked at her daughter a little nervously, it has been more than ten years since Momo's father died, although it was gone when Momo was very young, but Momo has a deep affection for her father, and she really doesn't know how her daughter will react.
But she and Wen Jianshu have been dating for two years, and if she doesn't agree to get married again, it's really unfair to Jianshu......
Lin Yi had already thought about it, her daughter was about to work, and it was time for her to mention it.
But if Mo Mo really disagrees, then he can only break up with Jianshu, after all, she and Mo Mo have been dependent on each other for more than ten years, and she and Mo Mo are the closest people in the world, and there is no one.
Seeing his mother's nervous look as if he had done something wrong, Tang Mo suddenly burst out laughing.
"Mom, you can rest assured to get married boldly, I believe that my mother's vision of people will not be wrong." After speaking, Tang Mo also squeezed Lin Yi's eyes mischievously.
"You kid, you're really no big or small." Seeing Tang Mo's attitude, Lin Yi's heart finally relaxed, and after dinner, he called Wen Jianshu to discuss the time for dinner.
Before going to bed at night, Lin Yi pushed open Tang Mo's door with a red face and told her that the time for dinner was set for tomorrow.
Tang Mo smiled and nodded, the time is so rushed, it must be Uncle Wen's side who is in a hurry to get it.
It seems that in the previous life, the care and love he showed for Lin Yi at the end of the Tang Dynasty was true.
Wen Jianshu was a person who knew a little about the late Tang Dynasty in his previous life.
The Wen family is a hidden family, and only came to the stage after the end of the world to work with several other major families to maintain the order of the end times, which can be regarded as making a great contribution to the survival of mankind after the end of the world, and after the collapse of the later powers, they formed an alliance government with several other powers.
And Wen Jianshu is the most direct second son of the Wen family, who has not married a wife in his 40s in middle age, and his career does not rely on the family but on his own appearance, which makes people unable to pick out half of it.
Tang Mo remembered that she often saw reports about Wen Jianshu in the Alliance Star Newspaper later, this person had great achievements, and Tang Mo was relieved to hand over his mother to him temporarily.
The next day, Wen Jianshu arrived at the door of Tang Mo's house early, waiting for the mother and daughter, and when he arrived at the hotel, he even brought a little flattery to Tang Mo, and cared about her study and life.
Tang Mo nodded secretly in his heart, this man was much younger than the last time she saw him, and he had a little less vicissitudes. Although Tang Mo has never been in love, she can also see that he should be sincere to his mother.
After returning home, Tang Mo told Lin Yi that Uncle Wen was very good, and if he proposed, you would agree.
As soon as Tang Mo finished talking to his mother here, Wen Jianshu's movements over there were faster, and the day after eating, he brought the household registration book and took Lin Yi directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Although the Wen family is a family, after all, Wen Jianshu is not a wealthy second generation in his twenties who rely on his family for food and housing, and people in their forties still have some freedom to marry.
Besides, the people of the Wen family have long had no expectations for this second child to report any marriage, and almost all of them acquiesced in his sexual orientation...
I didn't expect to get married directly this time, and I was pleasantly surprised.
Although Lin Yi is not wealthy, she is still married for the second time and has children, but her family background is innocent, and her appearance and temperament are not bad.
It's good to have a woman, you can't ask for too much, they're already satisfied! This is the truest thought of all the Wen family.
After the two of them came back together, Tang Mo had just gotten up and couldn't react, his stepfather was really fast, and he couldn't help but feel a little funny, as if he would regret it a day later.
"At the end of the day, this is a little bit of my uncle's heart, I originally wanted your mother to have a grand wedding, but your mother said that she didn't want anything, so I let her go, and I didn't give you any meeting gifts when we met yesterday, and my uncle will make up for you today."
Wen Jianshu put a bank card on the table, Lin Yi next to him didn't say anything, obviously Wen Jianshu had persuaded his wife on the way back.
Although she and Lin Yi are married, after all, Tang Mo is already so old, it is really inappropriate to change his name to Dad, which is also what Tang Mo has discussed with Lin Yi a long time ago, just call him uncle, everyone is comfortable.
Tang Mo looked at the card, but did not reach out to take it.
Although she is young, she can see the world more clearly than many adults.
The Wen family is rich, and Wen Jianshu is rich, but the more she is like this, the more worried she is that Mother Lin will be looked down upon by the Wen family, how can she accept Wen Jianshu's money now.
"Uncle Wen, I won't accept this, I just hope that you can be good to my mother, and you can do what you promised me yesterday, no matter what happens in the future, I will love her and protect her, it is enough." Tang Mo pushed the card back.
"Even if you don't mention what I promised you, I will naturally do it." Wen Jianshu clenched Lin Yi's hand.
"Don't think much about this money, after I get married, I'm going to take your mother to live at home.
The home is a big villa, so naturally I prepared a room for you early, and we will live together as a family of three in the future. This card is for you in case you need it, I'm afraid that your mother and you won't feel safe, and your uncle just wants to be as good as possible to you. ”
I have to say that Wen Jianshu is still very careful when thinking about things.
Although Lin Yi has been dating Wen Jianshu for the past two years, he is still working hard, no matter how Wen Jianshu persuades him, he has never received a penny from him.
Now that the two of them are married, Wen Jianshu naturally can't see his daughter-in-law working so hard, and this money also wants to make Lin Yi feel relieved.
Hearing a few words from a family of three, Tang Mo's heart also softened by half.
"Uncle, I still can't take the money, if you insist on giving it, give it to your mother. But I have two favors and I'd like you to help me out. ”
