Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 912

Chapter 912: Delivering The Grains
With the help of the Lu brothers, Xu Bohai and his men moved all the food in the warehouse. Tomorrow, they will deliver the Chen family’s share of food.

When Xu Bohai left the Lu family, it was already dawn. Without wasting any more time, they quickly left Xie Village and returned to the hidden warehouse in the mountains.

They left the cart there and returned to their home.

In one night, with the help of Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu, Houzi obtained more than three tons of grain. With this food, he could finally reopen his business.

Although the quality of these grains is not as good as Lu Jueyu’s rice, there are still many people competing for these grains. After all, who wouldn’t love a little more grain in the house?

At dawn, Lu Jueyu woke up and went to the kitchen to boil water. Since today is the Dragon Boat Festival, the villagers got up earlier than usual to either make five-color glutinous rice or red bean cakes.

For those who are in better condition, they will prepare some rice dumplings or Zongzi the day before and steam them today to eat with their families.

As the sun slowly rose, Li Chenmo and the children woke up one after another. Before breakfast, they went to work.

Since two-thirds of the pigs were slaughtered, only ten pigs were left, and the pig manure produced was not enough for the entire brigade. So, after the brigade saw the size of Li Chenmo’s pig pen, they sent him 50 more piglets.

At this time, there are 10 adult pigs and 50 piglets in the pig pen. So, Li Chenmo and his brothers came early to clean up the pen.

Since the piglets haven’t eaten much pig feed and haven’t drank the water in Lu Jueyu’s space, they still urinate and defecate everywhere. The condition of the rest of the fence appeared messier and filthier than the fence near the entrance.

Standing in the pig pen, Li Lingyun sighed and said, “These piglets are really noisy.”

Hearing his complaint, Li Chenze smiled and said, “They are noisy, but if we kill them, we will have a lot of food and meat.”

After listening to his brother’s words, Li Lingyun nodded and said, “Brother, after we prepare the soil, I plan to take our family to visit Jia Er’s family.”

“Have you talked to her about this?” Li Chenze asked.

“Mhmm, Jia Er had no objection. Since it was not convenient for my sister-in-law to travel far, I plan to go with our father, my third brother, and third sister-in-law. As for the children, I will leave it to you to take care of them while we are away,” Li Lingyun nodded.

Li Chenmo pushed the empty cart over, shoveled the pig manure into the cart, and said, “My wife and I have no objection. If my sister-in-law is still not well, we can let the children live with my parents-in-law.”

“My wife’s condition has improved now, so there is no need to trouble your parents-in-law. After all, your wife’s second sister-in-law is about to give birth,” Li Chenze shook his head.

Thinking of Wang Muxiao’s big belly, Li Chenmo nodded and said, “Then we will do what my brother said.”

“Second brother, have you informed our father about this?” he asked.

Li Lingyun nodded and said, “When we first came back from the capital, I notified our father. Our father just asked me to prepare the bride price in advance so that we wouldn’t have to travel several times and could get everything done at once.”

“As expected of our father. He never wastes time and strikes the iron while it’s hot,” Li Chenmo said with a smile.

Hearing his words, the three of them laughed while working.

At the same time, in Yun Village, people saw Lu Han and Lu Cheng pushing a cart full of grain, followed by a bullock cart, which contained more grain than the cart.

“Anwen’s Husband, are you moving to our village?” asked a curious villager.

Lu Han just smiled at the villagers and said nothing. He and his brother pushed the cart from home and already out of breath. Fortunately, Li Chenmo asked Zhang Ermu to help move the food. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to deliver the grains at all.

Chen Anwen’s house is close to the river and far from the entrance of the village. Halfway to Chen’s house, Chen Anbing, Chen Anmu, and Chen Anluo came over with Chen Anbing’s eldest son.

With their help pushing the cart, they arrived at the Chen family’s house in less than twenty minutes.

Neighbors saw the sacks stacked on the cart and knew they were filled with grain. On the day of distribution, everyone has already stored the food in the warehouse. So, why did the Chen family’s food only arrive today?

What’s more, it was sent by their son-in-law who lives in Xie village.

While they were busy moving grain into the warehouse, several neighbors stood by the fence and looked at them curiously.

Sensing their gazes, Lu Han said loudly, “Brother-in-law, this grain has been dried in the sun. So, you don’t have to worry about it getting moldy.”

When he finished saying this, a flash of realization flashed in the neighbor’s eyes. It turned out that the Chen family asked their son-in-law to help dry the grain again.

Indeed, it is impossible for the son-in-law to give them so much food. He must have been angry with them for leaving the work to him instead of doing it themselves.

Hearing Lu Han’s words, Chen Anluo quickly said, “Thank you, brother-in-law. Without the help of your family, we may need a few weeks to dry everything.”

Lu Cheng patted him on the shoulder and said, “Brother-in-law, don’t worry. There are many of us who can work at our home. With the addition of my sister’s in-laws, we were able to dry everything in two days. If you dry it yourself, it will take at least a week.”
