Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 155

Chapter 155: Imperial Jade Jewelry
Lu Jueyu doesn’t like others commenting on her relationship with her husband, especially after the nightmare yesterday. She felt insecure and threatened by the novel plot. So, she was displeased with the old man and said, “Uncle, if you just want to gossip, then I’m sorry, I don’t have time.”

Seeing that the girl was angry and wanted to leave, the old man quickly said, “Girl, wait! I just want to ask, why are you so angry?”

Lu Jueyu snorted and said, “Uncle, today I brought ginseng, wolfberry, mushrooms, and wild honey. Do you still want to buy them?”

After hearing her words, the old man’s hands trembled with excitement. Due to lack of medicine and poor living conditions, his grandson’s condition worsened day by day. He had a persistent cough and a fever. Using ginseng and wild honey, he can make ginseng wine for him.

“I want it, of course I want it!” The old man nodded heavily.

Lu Jueyu opened the bamboo basket and showed him the contents. When the old man saw wild ginseng, he was so excited that he almost fainted. This wild ginseng was at least 300 years old. He glanced at Lu Jueyu and wondered whether the girl was ignorant or really wanted to help him.

“Girl, do you know how old this ginseng is?” the old man asked.

Thinking that the old man wanted to know the quality of ginseng, Lu Jueyu answered honestly, “It is at least three hundred years old, or even longer.”

A trace of surprise flashed in the old man’s eyes, and he looked at her solemnly. Since the downfall of the Mo family, his relatives and friends have refused to lend a helping hand to them. When he thought there were no good people in the world, he met this girl. It seems there are still good people. It’s just that he wasn’t so lucky and didn’t meet them before.

Today he brought a set of jewelry made of imperial jade. This set of jade is his wife’s dowry and was passed down from her ancestors. It can be said to be his wife’s family heirloom. He was unwilling to trade it for food. But today, the only thing worth exchanging for ginseng is this set of jade jewelry.

He finally took out the box from his clothes and sighed, “Girl, this is my wife’s family heirloom. It has a history of more than 300 years. If it were not for my grandson’s illness, I would never exchange it for anything. ”

Lu Jueyu took the box and took a look. Her eyes widened in disbelief. This set of jewelry is known as one of the lost historical relics from the Tang Dynasty. It has a history of more than a thousand years. When it was discovered, a billionaire bought it at auction for $380 million and donated it to the government. She didn’t expect that this old man actually had a very powerful wife!

When the old man saw that she was silent, he became anxious and said, “Girl, I didn’t lie to you. This set of jewelry is the best set I own.”

After calming down her heartbeats, Lu Jueyu nodded and said, “This is indeed a good set of jewelry. I like it very much. You can tell me what medicinal materials you need, and I will try my best to find them for you. Just think of it as my appreciation for this set of jade.”

The old man didn’t expect that she not only accepted the jewelry in exchange for wild ginseng, but also wanted to help him. This is great!

“If possible, I need more wild honey.” The old man said.

Lu Jueyu thought for a while and said, “Okay, but I can’t guarantee you that I will get a lot of it. Wild honey is hard to find.”

“I understand. Girl, thank you so much.” The old man nodded.

Lu Jueyu said nothing and handed him the things in the bamboo basket. Unlike before when the old man just stuffed the food into his clothes, this time he wrapped the ginseng in a clean handkerchief and carefully put it into his clothes. As for mushrooms, wolfberries, and wild honey, he wrapped them in an old cloth and held them in his hand. Before leaving, he looked at Lu Jueyu gratefully.

After the old man left, Li Chenmo came over and whispered, “Wife, it’s time for us to leave.”

“En.” Lu Jueyu nodded.

They walked towards the desolate corner and entered Lu Jueyu’s place. After changing their clothes, they put the bamboo baskets in the space and took out the bicycle. They left the black market on the bicycle.

By the time they left the market, the sun was already rising over the horizon. Instead of going back to the village, they went to the county town.

At the same time, at Lu’s house, Pan Meijia had woken up and was about to leave. Coming out of the room, she knocked on Mother Lu’s door. Not long after, Mother Lu came out and was surprised to see her.

“Meijia, do you want to go out?” Mother Lu asked.

The sun has just risen and it’s still early to go out. There was no need to get up so early unless she wanted to go to the black market.

Pan Meijia nodded and said, “Aunt Lu, I’m going to the county town. My friend’s brother was discharged from the hospital today. I’ll pick him up. Is there anything you need to buy? I can buy it for you.”

Mother Lu thought about it and found that there was nothing missing at home. So, she shook her head and said, “We don’t lack anything now. You have to be more careful when you go out.”

“I understand. Then Aunt Lu, I’ll take my leave first.” Pan Meijia nodded and said with a smile.

Mother Lu nodded and went to the kitchen. At this moment, Mother Lu already regarded Pan Meijia as her own daughter.
