Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 754
Chapter 754: A Cunning Fox
Dong Li wiped his sweat and said, “Grandma Feng, Ah Lin is playing with Xiao Huang in the backyard. We heard that Grandpa Feng was injured, so we came to help repair the fence.”
Grandpa Feng glanced at Chen Jianming and asked, “Dong Li, who is this?”
Before Dong Li could speak, Chen Jianmin introduced himself politely, “Grandpa Feng, Grandma Feng, my name is Chen Jianmin. It’s a pleasure to meet both of you.”
Grandma Feng thought he was a girl at first, but after hearing his voice, she realized he was a boy. Despite the bruises on his face, he is still so good looking.
Seeing the bamboo baskets on their backs, Chen Jianmin reached out and said, “Grandpa, grandma, let me help you carry the bamboo baskets.”
Before they could refuse, they heard Dong Li say, “Grandpa, grandma, let him do it. Although he looks like a delicate girl, he is very strong.”
After hearing what he said, Chen Jiamin glared at him. Then, he took the bamboo baskets from Grandpa and Grandma Feng and easily carried them to the backyard.
He was used to working in the field and helping out at home. If he doesn’t have any strength, that would be a lie. No matter how thin he looks, he can still get 9 or 10 work points despite his young age.
Grandma Feng was worried that he would injure himself carrying the heavy bamboo basket and followed after him, while Grandpa Feng stayed to help Dong Li repair the fence.
In the backyard, Dong Huang and Feng Lin had just finished catching insects and were busy pulling weeds when they saw Chen Jianmin walking over carrying two bamboo baskets. Seeing this scene, both of them were stunned.
“Brother Jianmin, you can carry two bamboo baskets at once,” Dong Huang said in surprise.
Hearing this, Chen Jianmin just smiled at her and said helplessly, “Xiao Huang, although I am thin and look weak, I am very strong. I can lift you up easily. If you don’t believe me, you can try it.”
Dong Huang was a little curious, stretched out her hands and said, “Then can you carry me on your back?”
Chen Jianmin squatted in front of her and said, “Come on.”
Dong Huang climbed onto his back without hesitation and complained, “Brother Jianmin, your body is too hard. It’s not as comfortable as my brother’s back.”
Hearing her complaint, Chen Jianmin chuckled and said, “Then I will eat more so you won’t feel uncomfortable when I carry you in the future.”
Standing up, Feng Lin looked at them enviously and said, “Brother Jianmin, I want to be carried too.”
Because his grandparents were getting old, he never let them hold him. Without parents or older siblings, he would never experience the feeling of being carried. Therefore, looking at Dong Huang, he felt a little envious.
When Chen Jianmin heard this, he bent down and picked him up easily. He was carrying Dong Huang on his back and was carrying Feng Lin with his right hand. When Grandma Feng came, she saw this scene.
“Xiao Lin, why did you let Jianmin carry you? Come down quickly,” she said.
“Grandma, it’s okay. Ah Lin is not heavy,” Chen Jianmin smiled and didn’t put them down.
Grandma Feng saw him like this and thought, ‘What a kind-hearted and handsome boy ah.’
Chen Jianmin carried Dong Huang and Feng Lin for a while, then put them down and helped Grandma Feng clean mushrooms and wild vegetables. He was deft with his hands, and with his help they had everything cleaned in less than thirty minutes.
Afterward, he went to help fix the fences. As the sun set, they finally finished repairing the fence.
Seeing that it was almost dinner time, Grandma Feng said, “Everyone, have dinner first before you go back.”
After washing her hands and face, Dong Li said, “Thank you grandma for inviting us. But, my mother and father are waiting for us. So, we can’t stay any longer.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Jianmin said, “Grandpa, grandma, my parents are waiting for me too. We will come see you another day.”
“Okay, thank you Jianmin, Ah Li, and Xiao Huang for helping us today,” Grandpa Feng said.
“Grandpa, if you need help in the future, just tell us. We will definitely come to help you!” Dong Huang said while patting her chest.
Grandma Feng handed them a bag and said, “These are mushrooms for you and your family.”

This time, Chen Jianmin and Dong Li did not refuse and said, “Thank you, grandma and grandpa.”
Grandpa Feng looked at the sky and said, “Go back now. Be careful on the road.”
After leaving the Feng family’s house, Dong Li and Dong Huang chose the road that passed Chen Jianmin’s house.
When they arrived at his home, Dong Li said, “Thank you for helping us today.”
“Why are you thanking me? I benefited from it because I got a bag of fresh mushrooms. Next time you want to help people, remember to take me with you,” Chen Jianmin said before he entered his house.
Looking at his back, Dong Huang sighed and said, “Brother Jianmin is such a good person. Even though he helped Grandpa Feng and Grandma Feng, he didn’t take any credit.”
Dong Li flicked his sister’s forehead and said, “You are so stupid.”
Dong Huang covered her forehead and pouted and said, “Brother, can you stop hitting me on the forehead? What if I become stupid?”
Dong Li rubbed his sister’s forehead gently, nodded, and said seriously, “Mhmm, if you are any more stupid than now, there will be big problems. What if you are deceived by a cunning fox?”
Dong Huang didn’t understand what her brother was talking about. She only knew that he was making fun of her. She was angry with her brother and said, “Brother, you are so bad. I’m going to tell our Father and Mother that you bullied me.”
