Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 920
Chapter 920: Generous Gift
Grandpa Feng reached out and gently rubbed his grandson’s head, and said, “Ah Lin, you are the only hope of our Feng family. No matter what happens in the future, your grandparents will protect you. So, raise your head and walk confidently.”
Feng Lin nodded and said firmly, “Grandpa, I will not let you and grandma down. I will let everyone know that I, Feng Lin, can give you both a good life.”
Grandma Feng sat on the side and cried silently. She knew that her husband and grandson were determined to sever ties with her son, Feng Chen.
As a mother, it would be a lie if she said she wasn’t sad about what happened. But as a wife and grandmother, she couldn’t blame her husband and grandson for making this decision. After all, the culprit is her unfilial son.
Dong Li sighed deeply and asked, “Grandpa Feng, how do you feel?”
Hearing this, Grandpa Feng looked at him and said with a smile, “Ah Li, thank you. Our Feng family owes you and your family a lot, and I don’t know if we can repay you.”
Dong Li patted Grandpa Feng’s arm gently and said, “Grandpa Feng, it’s us who owe your family. If it weren’t for Xiao Lin, my sister might become disabled or even die. So, don’t say these polite words. For my sister and I, you and Grandma Feng are like our grandparents.”
“Brother, can you take out the gifts that Mother prepared for Grandpa Feng, Grandma Feng, and Ah Lin?” Dong Huang reminded her brother.
Dong Li knew that his sister was deliberately trying to liven up the atmosphere and nodded. He put the bamboo basket on the table and took out ten Zongzi, a pack of red bean cakes, a pack of five-color glutinous rice cakes, a pack of pancakes, and ten salted duck eggs.
Everyone was shocked when they saw the food. They knew that Li Chenmo and his wife were very generous. However, they did not expect that the other party would be so generous!
Even if the food is made by themself, the price of the ingredients is not cheap. Just the Zongzi require a lot of meat and glutinous rice.
After seeing the food, the Feng family forgot about the unpleasantness caused by Feng Chen’s sudden visit.
Grandpa Feng walked to the table and said, “Ah Li, this…is so much food. We can’t finish it.”
“Grandpa Feng, my mother said these foods can be kept in the kitchen for five days. You must be able to finish them before they go bad.”
Feng Lin was used to Lu Jueyu’s generosity and readily accepted the gift, “Brother Li, Xiao Huang, please help me to thank Aunt Li for the gifts.”
Dong Li nodded and said, “Now that the gifts have been delivered, we will leave first. Grandpa Feng, you should rest more and don’t think too much. Everything will get better.”
“Grandpa knows.”
After saying goodbye, Dong Huang and Dong Li walked home. Along the way, they saw many children bragging about the food their families had made for the Dragon Boat Festival.
Dong Huang held the small gourd pendant in her clothes and said, “Brother, this is the first time Xiao Huang received a gift during the festival.”
Dong Li smiled at his sister and said, “You will receive more gifts in the future. Just remember not to tell anyone about your gifts. Bragging is not a good habit. We must keep a low profile to avoid disaster.”
Although Dong Huang didn’t quite understand her brother’s words, she also knew that he was telling her not to show the gifts from her mother to others.
“Xiao Huang will listen to my brother,” she said seriously.
While the people in Xie Village were celebrating the festival happily, Houzi and his men were busy packing the orders.
In an underground warehouse located at the edge of the town, Bajie was checking the weight of the sacks with a list in his hand.
Although the quality of these grains is much worse than the grains sold by Lu Jueyu, customers still place orders one after another, fearing that they will be short of food in the future.
“Brother Bajie, we have packed all the grain into sacks. Each bag weighs fifty kilograms.” One of Houzi’s men came over to report.
Bajie nodded and said, “Okay, after we weigh everything, everyone can go back and rest. We will deliver the grain at midnight.”
“When you leave, you can go and collect the gifts prepared by our boss,” he added.
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up and their spirits were lifted. No one dislikes receiving gifts, especially if the gift prepared by your boss is a good one.
When Bajie saw this, he smiled and shook his head. He was also looking forward to this gift. Compared with some grain and meat received last year, this year Houzi bought some oyster sauce, mushroom sauce, wild honey, and fruit wine from Lu Jueyu.

In less than an hour, everyone finished their work and left the underground warehouse. Ding Sha and Ding Ran, who were sitting near the door, were already waiting for them, with a bunch of small bags placed behind them.
The bag was roughly made from a gunny sack. Although this bag looks cheap, it’s sturdy and has plenty of space inside.
Ding Sha saw them coming, opened a book, and wrote down their names one by one, while Ding Ran handed them each a bag. After getting the bag, they thanked them and quickly left the warehouse.
As they walked home, one of them couldn’t help but check the items. When he saw what was in the bag, he was shocked.
There were two kilograms of white rice, two kilograms of white flour, two pieces of bacon, a jar of wild honey, a bottle of oyster sauce, a bottle of mushroom sauce, a bottle of fruit wine, and five pieces of Zongzi inside the bag.
