I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies - Chapter 316

316 Inventory Check Completed

After the two had finished drinking tea, Mo Ruyue exchanged a few more words. Seeing that the other coachmen had also drunk tea to warm themselves up, she said, “Then let’s start now. The earlier we finish counting, the earlier you can go back to report.”

The white commander and the Ouyang commander also nodded in agreement. They personally accompanied her and began to count the gifts in the carriage.

This count stunned all the surrounding villagers. Waves of surprised cries came continuously, but by the time they reached the end, everyone was already numb to it and didn’t even bother to make a sound.

There were so many good things that everyone was dazzled. At first, some people tried to estimate the value, but in the end, they found that it was not worth it at all.

!!
Ten fingers were already not enough, even if he used ten more toes, it would still not be enough.

When the sun rose, they had only finished loading half of the carriages, and some villagers who were tired from standing had already gone home.

Lady Qin was undoubtedly rich, and the wealth they earned today was more than they could earn in ten or a hundred lifetimes.

It was infuriating to compare people. If they continued to look, they would be envious and jealous. Everyone was afraid that their eyes would fall into the wealth and they would never be able to pull it out again. So, they could only hurry home so that they wouldn’t be bothered.

When Mo Ruyue was halfway through the inventory, she asked Qin Qinghao to go to the kitchen to prepare some more food. Whether it was the housekeeper or the coachman, they had arrived at the Qin Village so early, which meant that they had woken up even earlier.

Even if they had already eaten before they left, they should be hungry by now.

It just so happened that there were some cakes that Mo Ruyue had baked yesterday at home. A small portion of them were used to pay respects to the ancestors, and the rest were made for the babies.

Now that she had the rare time to cook for them, she naturally seized every opportunity to cook and satisfy their needs in various ways.

As a result, the two supervisors and the group of coachmen also benefited from it. When they took the first bite, their eyes were wide with surprise.

Not to mention that it was the first time the coachmen had eaten such a delicious pastry, even the two experienced butlers were surprised.

They could be considered to have followed their master everywhere and had seen a lot. What kind of food had they not tried? But the pastries made by Mo Ruyue had opened a new door for them to know about food.

“It turns out that Lady Qin’s cooking skills are also so high. I don’t think it’s any worse than your medical skills.”

The white commander said, full of praise.

In fact, he had long heard of Mo Ruyue’s cooking skills.

Their young lady Bai Shijiao had such a tricky taste. No matter how delicious the food was, she would get tired of it after two or three times. However, she never got tired of Lady Qin’s nutritious meal. This was famous in the entire Bai family.

As for Miss Zhu Zhu, there was no need to mention her. She was a pampered child who grew up with gold and jade, and was only harder to serve than their own miss. However, after eating the nutritious meal made by Lady Qin, she also looked forward to it every day, and now she was very well-behaved.

Steward Ouyang also nodded his head slightly. Although he did not show it on his face, he was extremely shocked in his heart.

He rushed to the Bai manor late last night. At that time, he also heard the rumors about his miss being addicted to eating Madam Qin’s nutritious meal, but he didn’t care at that time.

He thought that it was just because she was tired of eating big fish and meat, so she changed it to some light porridge and side dishes to freshen up. However, after personally tasting it today, he realized that he was really too arrogant and had committed a big taboo that he should not have committed.

“If the two of you like it, I’ll have Qinghao pack some more for you to take away when you leave.”

They had made a lot of pastries at home, so Mo Ruyue was not stingy to share with the two.

“Then I’ll accept your invitation.”

The white commander was the first to agree. However, he didn’t want to eat it himself. Instead, he wanted to bring it back for his masters to try.

“Don’t give the food to the two ladies. They can’t have sugar now. It’ll delay the effect.”

Mo Ruyue’s words had ruined the white commander’s plan.

“This, Lady Qin, you also know our family’s young lady. If she sees that she doesn’t have a share of the things you give, her temper will not be good.”

The white commander smiled bitterly. This box of pastries was originally a gift, but now it seemed to be a hot potato.

“Don’t worry, white commander. I’ve already prepared everything. There’s also a portion for the young lady of the Ouyang family. Their desserts are specially made. With this, you can’t eat other people’s desserts.”

Mo Ruyue would only continue to go to the Bai family after the winter food festival, so she had already prepared the “prizes” for the two weight loss girls during this period of time. She was waiting for the person who had given the gifts to the Bai family today to bring them back.

“It turns out that Lady Qin has long prepared. This has made this one sigh in relief.”

The white commander’s expression and tone became relaxed. After understanding the temper of the young girl, Mo Ruyue could understand his feelings of relief at this moment.

Although there was only one more person, Mo Ruyue had also brought out desserts for the Bai family, and the amount was enough.

The smile on the white commander’s face never stopped as he happily received the box of pastries from Mo Ruyue and the babies. If it wasn’t for the fact that Steward Ouyang had also tasted the pastry, he would never believe that the white commander would be so happy just for a bite.

The entire inventory check didn’t end until the end of the night. At this time, the sun had already tilted to the mountains in the west. In another four hours, the sky would be completely dark.

The sound of firecrackers and children’s laughter could be heard in the distance. The liveliness of the night had quietly arrived ahead of time.

The white commander marked the last stroke on the list and said to Mo Ruyue with a smile, “Lady Qin, we finally didn’t let Master down. We have counted all the gifts with you. Here’s the key to the new house, you can keep it well too.”

He handed a large booklet and a bunch of keys to Mo Ruyue, then explained the use of each key in detail, and finally said to her, “In that case, we’ll take our leave first. We have to rush back before night falls and move everything into the house.”

Mo Ruyue nodded. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, White Commander. Please convey my new year’s blessings to your master. Also, you must make sure the two young ladies keep their mouths shut. Don’t waste all our efforts.”

She also specifically reminded the two young ladies about the things they should pay attention to when losing weight. Although they didn’t need to abstain from eating according to Mo Ruyue’s treatment, they still had to pay attention to some things during the bottleneck period.

After the two managers bade Mo Ruyue farewell again, they brought the carriage back.

“Enough. Now that we’ve seen the commotion at other people’s houses, let’s hurry back. We haven’t made the New Year’s Eve dinner yet. It’ll be bad enough if the pot and stove are cold later.”

“That’s right. They’re not lacking in fortune and wealth during the new year. We don’t have anything we want, so don’t just look at them with envy.”
