    The next morning, it was just dawn at five o'clock.

    Qiao Mu was awakened by the sound of pots, pans and roosters crowing outside. When she got up and went to the well in the backyard to fetch water to wash up, she saw her second daughter-in-law, Zhu Juan, cooking porridge in the kitchen:

    "Is anyone else up yet?"

    ¡°Ah, mother-in-law, they are all still sleeping.

    But you should wake up in a while.  "

    Zhu Juan responded in front of the stove and stared at Qiao Mu's clothes for several seconds.

    Then don¡¯t look away.

    "The clothes she gave to her mother-in-law yesterday were good clothes that she had been keeping at the bottom of the box and was not willing to wear. Now she is afraid that she will not be able to get them back. If she had known this, she should have worn more clothes in the first place.

    I am so addicted to wearing clothes that they are worn out.

    At this time, Qiao Mu really didn't notice the change in her second daughter-in-law's expression. She just nodded, took a bowl from the cupboard, scooped some water from the tank, and rinsed her mouth casually.

    It¡¯s not that Qiao Mu is too lazy to brush his teeth.

    The main reason is that she doesn¡¯t have a toothbrush at home.

    Then the only way to wash up is to rinse your mouth.

    If she washes herself with salt, not to mention whether her family will feel sorry for the salt, even this behavior is not in line with the original person's daily behavior and attitude in the past.

    So I can only rinse my mouth roughly.

    Zhu Juan, who was stirring the porridge in the pot, saw Qiao Mu turning his head, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked: "Mother-in-law, your clothes"

    ¡°Uh¡­your clothes were burned.

    ?Then what can you do in the future?  "

    ¡°I¡¯ll buy it later, what can I do?

    I almost forgot if I didn¡¯t mention it. I have to go to the market today to see if there is any fabric or anything.

    Now I don¡¯t even have a change of clothes.

    I can¡¯t wear your clothes forever.

    You are also serious. Isn¡¯t it our custom to burn clothes in front of graves?  The lid of my coffin hasn't even been closed yet, and even before I even got into the coffin, you couldn't wait to burn my clothes. What do you mean?

    ¡°Every one of them was eager to send me away.

    ¡°Forget it, it¡¯s not your business alone.

    I have something to do when I go back to the house. Leave me a bowl of thick porridge and some pickles.  "

    As soon as he was reminded by his second daughter-in-law, Qiao Mu immediately planned to go back to the house to sort out his belongings and arrange them quickly after seeing what was missing.

    It¡¯s not like she can only live another year or two,

    Just make do with it.

    She can live another forty or fifty years no matter what.

    So naturally we can¡¯t just make do with it.

    Why don¡¯t you hurry up and take advantage of the fact that there are no restrictions on private transactions now, buy some fabrics, go home and make some clothes, and wait until you need cloth tickets later.

    ?That can¡¯t be bought with money.

    After telling him to leave some porridge, Qiao Mu immediately turned around and went back to the house. He turned back to the house and opened the most precious wooden box. He began to look through the things inside and tidied them up, making sure that those things inside that Qiao Mu didn't like were noticed.  Putting everything away can free up some space in the box.

    Leave some room to store things exchanged from other planes in the future, so as not to have no place to put them.

    have to say.

    The original person is really reluctant to throw away anything.

    The items in that box gave Qiao Mu the illusion of rummaging through a grocery store. A few pieces of fabric from an unknown number of years ago, a thimble, a few hardwood jewelry, shoe soles, a bronze mirror, a small package of peach cakes that softened quickly, and a package of hard  Sugar, half a packet of brown sugar.

    There were a lot of groceries, and Qiao Mu didn¡¯t even know what they were for.

    Apart from the sundries, the most valuable thing in this box is the wooden box containing the money.

    The money there is also very miscellaneous, including a few copper coins, current banknotes, the amount is too small, dozens of gold yuan coupons that have not been exchanged, legal tender that is no longer in circulation, local currency issued by local institutions in the past, etc., all kinds of things are still there  Qiao Mu found a total of eight types of coins in circulation and those that are no longer in circulation, and the total number is quite large.

    Unfortunately, most of them are no better than paper.

    There are only tens of thousands of banknotes.

    Now it can be used as money.

    As for where the tens of thousands of dollars came from, except for the more than two thousand dollars exchanged in the bank three years ago.

    The rest were saved over the past few years.

    To be precise, most of it was saved this year.

    Save thisThe reason for so many is also very simple.

    It¡¯s nothing more than currency devaluation.

    When it was first issued, more than two thousand yuan could still buy a lot of things. However, after three years, the denominations of the money have become larger and larger, and the things that can be bought have become less and less. It is said that the current largest denomination banknote has been  It's a full fifty thousand yuan.

    ¡°The total amount of banknotes in my hands was only 50,000 yuan. In order not to make the money look small, I didn¡¯t dare to change it for large banknotes. If my family only had one piece of money, I would look so poor.

    A few more small bills with smaller amounts.

    At any rate, I can still count them and enjoy myself.

    ¡°No, we still have to use the money.

    The later it is, the less cost-effective it will be, and the later this generation of money may continue to depreciate.  "

    Qiao Mu only thought about it for a moment and realized that it was better to spend the money as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you can buy a piece of clothing for 100 yuan this year, you may have to spend 150 yuan next year.

    Rather than doing this, it¡¯s better to spend the money.

    ?Buy some shelf-stable things to store at home.

    Thinking of this, Qiao Mu immediately took out all the usable money in the money box.

    Then he went to the living room with the money.

    I¡¯m going to discuss it with my family a little bit.

    See if they are missing anything.

    "You can't spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy things for yourself. That selfish person is not like the original person at all."

    At this time, the dining table was full of people.

    Those sons and daughters-in-law who haven¡¯t woken up before.

    Even the grandchildren were sitting at the dining table without washing their faces or gargling their mouths.

    For them, other things can be missed, but meal time must not be missed, because this time is not like the future, where there are various snacks and snacks even if they don¡¯t eat. If they miss the meal at home at this time, they will only be so hungry.  Wait, drink some water at most to support your stomach.

    ¡°Everyone is hungry and scared, no matter how deeply they sleep.

    When the time comes, you will wake up naturally.

    And came to the dining table to wait for dinner.

    When Qiao Mu came in, her second daughter-in-law happened to also come in carrying a big basin.

    Wait for the basin to be brought to the table.

    Zhu Juan handed the spoon she was holding to Qiao Mu: "Mother-in-law, please share the porridge."

    Qiao Mu knew that their family had always been like this, so he didn't refuse. He reached out and took the spoon and stirred the porridge basin. He first served himself a bowl of slightly thicker porridge, and then started serving it to other people in the family.  Serve porridge separately.

    But he didn¡¯t give more to his sons and grandchildren like the original person did.

    But everyone is similar.

    Although this seemed a little different from the past to the three sons, at this time they just thought that Qiao Mu might be a little angry about their behavior yesterday, so they divided the porridge equally.

    In order not to scold you.

    They didn¡¯t dare to say anything.

    I can only make do with pickles and porridge.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
