Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 387

Chapter 387: Comrade, Gift ( 1 )
Houzi ordered beef jerky and pork sausage for himself. Since it was his order, Lu Jueyu gave him the one made by her and not produced by her space. The taste is much better than the ones produced in space due to her cooking skills. However, due to the long preparation time and complicated process, she rarely makes it by herself.

In addition, she also prepared several baskets of vegetables and a basket of fruits. They were filled with 20 kg of each type of vegetable. The rest was filled with 30 peaches, 5 watermelons, each weighing 20 kilograms, and 10 cantaloupes, each weighing 3 kilograms.

After she finished taking a shower, Li Chenmo said, “Wife, I’m done. You go take a shower first.”

After marking the pre-order list and making sure everything was ready, Lu Jueyu went to take a shower. They had a simple supper and then left the space. When they reappear in the bedroom, they spend their time reading a book while waiting for Bajie.

Not long after, there was a knock on the backyard door. When Li Chenmo went to open the door, Lu Jueyu went to the kitchen and took out all the bamboo baskets from her space.

Every day when Bajie picks up a new order, he will bring back the empty basket and give her the previous day’s income. In this way, Ding Sha doesn’t have to visit her every few days, and she won’t attract the attention of the villagers.

Li Chenmo, Bajie, and Ding Sha entered the kitchen and saw her putting some snacks and bottles of fruit wine into a small basket. Bajie asked curiously, “Sister-in-law, do you need me to send those snacks and wine? If it’s on the way, we can send them on your behalf.”

Lu Jueyu smiled, handed the bamboo basket to Ding Sha, and said, “I heard from Meijia that there are ten people under Houzi’s command, so I prepared some snacks and fruit wine for you. Please help me give it to them.”

Ding Sha took the bamboo basket and said, “Thank you, sister-in-law.”

“Everyone helps me sell my goods and works hard. It’s just a small gift, I hope you won’t dislike it.” Lu Jueyu smiled.

Bajie glanced into the bamboo basket and saw ten packages of snacks wrapped in oil paper, as well as ten small bottles of peach wine. Knowing how expensive Lu Jueyu’s snacks and wine were, he was extremely happy and said, “Sister-in-law, this is what we should do, no gifts are needed.”

Despite his words being polite, his hands were honest. He took the bamboo basket from his sister and refused to let go. Seeing him like this, Lu Jueyu shook her head and said, “When you send money tomorrow, you can bring some fruit back.”

Compared to Houzi’s other subordinates, they have a closer relationship with Bajie and his sister. So, it is okay to give them some fruits. After the goods were transported, Li Chenmo saw that his wife was still packing some snacks and wine in a big bamboo basket.

He walked over and asked, “Wife, do you want to send some food to your family?”

Lu Jueyu shook her head and continued to pack the food, saying, “No, this is for your comrades.”

Li Chenmo was startled by his wife’s words. He did not remember that he had introduced any other comrades besides Xiao Zhang who had sent him back when he was injured to his wife.

“Wife, it’s too late to send these to the military camp now. More importantly, we can’t send fresh food because it will take several days to arrive and the food will spoil.”

Hearing this, Lu Jueyu smiled and said, “It’s not for them but for your comrades in the black market.”

A flash of surprise flickered in Li Chenmo’s eyes for a moment and then returned to normal. He put his arm around his wife’s waist, leaned into her ear, and asked in a low voice “Wife, how do you know I have comrades in the black market?”

“Husband, I could see the way your comrades looked at me that day. In addition to being curious when he looked at me, he also looked at you with awe and admiration in his eyes.” Lu Jueyu said casually.

Hearing his wife’s words, Li Chenmo nodded and said, “Wife, you are really smart and observant.”

Lu Jueyu was tickled by her husband’s breath when he whispered in her ear. She nudged him gently and said, “Stop messing around. We should send it before dawn.”

Li Chenmo kissed his wife’s earlobe, let go of her, and said, “Okay.”

The weather is getting warmer so it would be strange if they still wear a scarf. So, Lu Jueyu took out two bamboo hats from the space, which could be used to cover half of their faces. The two of them left the house from the backyard and went to the town on a bicycle.

Thirty minutes later, they arrived at the black market. As before, they found a secluded place. After putting the bicycle in her space and taking out the bamboo basket, they put on their bamboo hats and headed to the black market.

Due to the Qingming festival, many people came to try their luck to buy some snacks or cold food as offerings. As they walked, the scent of snacks wafting out of the bamboo baskets attracted many people to ask if they were selling snacks.

Because they have already made an agreement with Houzi, they will shake their heads whenever someone comes to ask about snacks. Not long after, they arrived at the place of Li Chenmo’s comrade. After knocking on the door, they waited for a while and then the door was opened.

Behind the door, a man with scarred eyes saw them and said in surprise, “Cap.. Brother Li, what brings you here today? Please come in.”

When Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu entered the house, the man closed the door and locked it. He led them to the hidden tunnel and said, “Brother Li, sister-in-law, are you two here to buy food?”
