Chapter 37 - Article 37

He also bought some vegetables and seasonings. He also bought some flour and some bowls. The bowls at home were so broken that they couldn't be used anymore. Now that he was rich, he couldn't forget to buy a few. He clearly remembered this.

After buying all the things, Mo Xiao Yan's basket was full of them. It was heavy, and carrying it was very strenuous, so he could only clench his teeth and endure until the ox-cart slowly.

His current condition was too bad, so Mo Xiao Yan was very thin and short. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so boring.

Walking to a place by the side of the road that sold noodles, Mo Xiao Yan smelled the fragrance that floated out, and started to feel hungry.

No matter what, he wasn't home when he got back. He decided to buy a bowl of noodles and fill his stomach first.

Mo Xiao Yan walked to the side of the stall and put down the basket, then asked: "Boss, how much is a bowl of noodles?"

"Little girl, come and sit down and rest. The noodles with meat on it is one bowl for nine coins and one bowl of plain noodles is six coins."

Mo Xiao Yan thought that the noodles with meat on it was only worth 2-30%, so he decided to eat a bowl of meat to have a taste.

"Then give me a bowl with meat," Mo Xiao Yan said.

"Alright, it's almost done."

It was quickly made, a pretty big bowl, and was quite substantial. Even after eating, Mo Xiao Yan's stomach still hurt a little.

After paying, he carried the basket on his back and slowly walked towards the ox-cart.

By the time he got to the ox-cart in Master Zhao, Mo Xiao Yan was already sweating profusely and he was so tired that he didn't even manage to take a rest.

If he put it down, it would be too taxing for him to carry it, so he insisted on walking over.

"Xiao Yan, why are you back so early today?" The Master Zhao that was driving the ox cart asked.

The ox-cart was a bit high, Mo Xiao Yan wasn't sure if he could put the basket that was filled to the brim, and had no choice but to seek help from the Master Zhao.

"Grandpa Zhao, can you do me a favor? There are too many things in the basket, I can't take them out." Mo Xiao Yan asked for help pitifully.

"Hur hur, no problem. I'll help you carry it up. You should sit on it first." Master Zhao readily agreed.

The sun was high in the sky, and the sun was at its brightest. The people who went to the market had not come back yet, and this place was especially sun-drenched.

Mo Xiao Yan's face was completely red, even his lips were dried and cracked. If this continued, he would probably be in heat.

After sitting there for a while, there was still no sign of him. However, a carriage had arrived.

Mo Xiao Yan looked at the horse carriage and was immediately envious. If he was inside the horse carriage, he wouldn't need to bask in the sun like he did before. But the sun was not a good fit.

A familiar voice sounded: "Hey, Xiao Yan, what are you doing here?"

Mo Xiao Yan didn't even need to look to know that it was Chen Zi Mo from the voice.

The carriage stopped beside the ox-cart. Mo Xiao Yan said snappily: "Didn't you see that I'm riding on it? Get ready to go back."

"Oh, then since the sun is so high right now, come and sit in my carriage. I'll head back now as well. It's a good time for me to head back as well." Chen Zi Mo kindly invited Mo Xiao Yan.

Mo Xiao Yan naturally wanted to take a carriage, and it just so happened that Chen Zi Mo also called out to him.

"Grandpa Zhao, I'm sorry. It's too hot now. I bought some meat. If I don't go back now, I'm afraid it will stink. I'll go back in his carriage." Mo Xiao Yan said a little embarrassedly.
