Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 986

Chapter 986: Depart ( 2 )
At the same time, Zhang Ermu was inspecting the bullock cart when his mother came over carrying a small package and two bamboo bottles.

When Zhang Ermu saw his mother, he stopped what he was doing and asked, “Mother, why did you get up so early? You just recovered from the cold and need to rest more.”

Mother Zhang handed the package to her son and said, “Son, mother knows that you are sending the Li family into the city today. So, Mother make these wild vegetable pancakes for your breakfast. Share them with them later.”

Seeing that her son did not say anything, Mother Zhang added, “Son, the Li family has helped us a lot. Although it is nothing compared to what they eat every day, this is our intention. Mother believes that your friends will not look down on us for sharing these pancakes.”

Zhang Ermu was silent for a moment and said, “Mother, I know the Li family won’t look down on us. But, I…”

Mother Zhang put the package and the bamboo bottles in her son’s hand and said, “Son, you are a great person. Compared with others, you are not lacking at all. On the contrary, you are much better than most of them. So, never look down on yourself.”

“Although our family has been labeled as a criminal family and your grandparents were labeled as the five-black category, your grandparents and your family have never done anything to be sorry for others or our country. We have a clear conscience. So, raise your head high, you do nothing wrong,” she added.

Zhang Ermu nodded and said, “Mother, I understand.”

Mother Zhang looked at the sky and said, “The sun has risen. It’s time for you to go. Otherwise, they will be late to catch the train.”

After checking the bullock cart, Zhang Ermu placed the pancakes and two bottles of water prepared by his mother behind the driver’s seat. Sitting in the driver seat, he looked at his mother and said, “Mother, I’m going now.”

“Okay, be careful on the road,” Mother Zhang reminded her son.

“I will. Mother, remember to cook the fish today. Otherwise it will go bad.”

Mother Zhang nodded and said with a smile, “Mother knows. Go now.”

After glancing at his mother, Zhang Ermu drove the bullock cart to Father Li’s house.

When he arrived at Father Li’s house, everyone was chatting in the living room. In addition to his bullock cart, they also borrowed the production team’s tractor. With these two modes of transport, they have no problem transporting luggage and people.

When Zhang Ermu saw that everyone had arrived, he parked the bullock cart, got down, and walked into the house.

“Good morning, Brother Ermu,” Li Chenze said when he saw him coming.

“Everyone, I’m sorry for being late.” Zhang Ermu said apologetically.

“Brother Ermu, you are not late. We agreed to leave at 3.30 in the morning, and it is now 3.10. Have you eaten?” Li Chenmo asked.

Zhang Ermu smiled and said, “I brought breakfast. We should load the luggage now so that we can catch the train.”

“Okay.”

They loaded their luggage into the bullock cart. As for the tractor, it was used to carry people.

After they finished moving their luggage, Li Chenze closed the door and followed them. Li Chenze and Zhang Ermu sat together in the driver seat of the bullock cart, while the rest of them sat on a big cart connected to the tractor.

Since it was still early, no one noticed them leaving, and they were able to avoid the curious villagers.

When they arrived at the county seat, the sun had already started rising in the eastern horizon.

Taking out the pancakes, Zhang Ermu looked at Li Chenze and said, “Brother Chenze, these pancakes were prepared by my mother for us. Please have a try.”

Li Chenze looked at the golden wild vegetable pancakes and said with a smile, “Brother Ermu, it’s a rare opportunity for me to try your mother’s cooking. I can’t let go of this opportunity.”

Hearing this, Zhang Ermu smiled and said, “Then you should eat more, Brother Chenze.”

“Then I won’t be polite to you,” Li Chenze said, reaching out to take the pancake.

Seeing that he was eating with gusto, Zhang Ermu started eating with a smile. While they were eating breakfast, Pan Meijia opened her small bag and took out a package and two bamboo bottles.

She handed a bamboo bottle and two pieces of scallion pancakes to Father Li and said, “Uncle Li, I made soy milk this morning. Please drink some to warm yourself up.”

Father Li took the bottle and pancakes with a smile and said, “Thank you, Meijia.”

Pan Meijia handed another bottle and two pancakes to Han Yuheng and said, “Team Leader, you have some too.”

Although Han Yuheng had already eaten two cold pancakes at home, he still felt hungry after waking up for a few hours. He took the bamboo bottle and pancakes and said, “Thank you, Comrade Pan.”

Pan Meijia took another bottle from her bag and gave it to her boyfriend together with two pancakes. Then, she handed the pancakes to Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu, “Jueyu, brother-in-law, please have some too.”

Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu took the pancakes and said, “Thank you.”

Seeing his girlfriend busy dividing pancakes and soy milk, Li Lingyun handed the bamboo bottle to his girlfriend and said, “Jia Er, warm your stomach first before eating.”

Pan Meijia nodded, drank the soy milk, and then started eating scallion pancakes.

After eating the scallion pancakes, Lu Jueyu found that everyone was still hungry. So, she reached into her small bag and took out two packages wrapped in oil paper.

These were prepared in her space, but to avoid suspicion, she put them in her bag when she left in the morning. Therefore, the food is no longer hot.

When she opened the package, the scent of brown sugar and eggs filled the air.
