Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 775

Chapter 775: Rich Woman
Hearing Li Chenze’s words, Lu Jueyu thought for a while and said, “Brother, my sister-in-law can’t do heavy work. How about we ask someone to help? We can give them some food in return.”

“Your sister-in-law and I have discussed it. We will invite her paternal aunt. She will come in the morning and come back in the afternoon. We will give her some money and food in exchange for her help,” Li Chenze said.

“Brother, if you need any help, you must tell us,” Lu Jueyu reminded him again.

Li Chenmo looked at his wife and knew that she was worried about her eldest brother’s family and believed that their money was limited. He looked helplessly at his silly wife.

The money Zhang Dongmei earns from helping her make snacks can last them for several years, not to mention that his eldest brother is not a simple person.

When he and his second brother decided to tell their eldest brother about their side business, Li Chenze also confessed. When he was young, he rescued a group of foreigners from Inner Mongolia who were being hunted by the government.

For this life-saving grace, they vowed to give him half of their family property. The properties are three goat farms that produce cashmere and were sold illegally to other countries.

Although Li Chenze has never been there and does not know how many goats he has, the people he rescued back then would give him several boxes of gold bars every year.

These gold bars have been accumulated over the years, and now even Li Chenze doesn’t know how many boxes of gold he has. The gold is buried in the mountains, and the location is also very secret.

Because he had a good memory and was good at identifying mountain paths, he did not draw the location where the gold was hidden. So, no one knows where the gold was except Li Chenze.

When Li Lingyun and Li Chenmo learned about this, they were both stunned. Although their eldest brother has no money, he has a lot of gold.

Thinking about the skyrocketing gold prices during the reform and opening up period, Li Chenmo simply couldn’t imagine how rich his brother was. So, when he saw his wife worrying about his eldest brother’s financial situation, he could only shake his head.

Seeing that his third brother was deep in thought, Li Chenze said, “Third brother, third sister-in-law, it’s time for me to go back. Father and your sister-in-law are waiting for me at home.”

Li Chenmo came back to his senses and said, “Brother, there is so much food, so you should use my bicycle. My wife and I have no plans to go into the town, so you can rest assured and use it until my sister-in-law gets better. It will be more convenient for you to pick up the food.”

When Li Chenze heard this, he did not refuse and said with a smile, “Thank you, third brother.”

After seeing him off, the children came back from school and they went to have lunch together.

At the same time in the Lu family’s house, Pan Meijia was busy packing her clothes and items she bought for her family. Besides that, she planned to bring all the money and coupons she earned with her.

When she first came to Xie Village, she thought the living conditions would be difficult due to limited food and money. Unexpectedly, she met the Lu family and became friends with Lu Jueyu.

After becoming friends, her living conditions are getting better and better. She didn’t expect that not only would she live well and eat well, but she could even make a lot of money and find a good man in this village.

After closing her bedroom’s door, she counted the money she made by helping Lu Jueyu make snacks and selling dried mushrooms and mountain products on the black market.

It took her a long time to count the money. When she was done counting, she looked in disbelief at the can filled with money and coupons.

She thought she could earn a few thousand yuan at most. Unexpectedly, she actually had more than 200,000 yuan and many coupons. At this moment, she felt very rich.

She even had two coupons for sewing machines, two coupons for bicycles, and about twenty industrial coupons. With these coupons, she can buy a bicycle and a sewing machine for her parents.

She smiled when she thought that her boyfriend planned to give her parents a sewing machine and a bicycle as a bride price. After she closed the jar, she placed it in the suitcase, closed the lid, and locked it with a padlock.

She had just finished packing when she heard a knock on the door, followed by Mother Lu’s voice, “Meijia, have you packed up?”

Hearing her voice, Pan Meijia hurriedly opened the door and saw Mother Lu holding a jar in her hand.

“Aunt Lu, I just finished packing. Do you need help?” she asked.

Mother Lu handed her the jar and said, “This is your first time back to visit your parents after you come to our village. So, bring this back to your family to try.”

Pan Meijia held the jar and asked, “Aunt Lu, is this the plum sauce you made yesterday?”

Mother Lu nodded and said with a smile, “We don’t have anything valuable, so we can only give this handmade sauce to your parents.”

Hearing this, Pan Meijia’s eyes lit up and a smile appeared on her face. She has tasted plum sauce made by many villagers, but no one can compare with Mother Lu’s plum sauce. Even Lu Jueyu’s plum sauce was learned from Mother Lu.

The sauce is very tasty and adds flavor to fried foods. Just the thought of fried spring rolls dipped in sauce makes her mouth water.

Mother Lu noticed her greedy expression and said with a smile, “Don’t just think about food. Pay more attention and be careful on the road when you are traveling.”
