Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 154

When Houzi and his assistant visited the richest family in the county town yesterday, the old lady bought everything at once. Not only did she buy meat, grains, and sauces, but also all of the jujube cakes and frozen dumplings. He earns more than 300 yuan in one trip.

Huozi didn’t know if the news about him selling good quality items came from that family or not. But last night, several people from several wealthy families came to order jujube cakes and frozen dumplings. While Huozi was happy about this big order, he was a little worried that Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu wouldn’t come today.

So, when he saw Li Chenmo walking in with Lu Jueyu, he stood up suddenly and greeted them enthusiastically, "Brother, Sister-in-law, you are here!"

Houzi thought that Li Chenmo would be flattered by his warm welcome, but when he saw Li Chenmo frowning and looking wary, he was stunned.

Lu Jueyu smiled instead when she saw Houzi’s enthusiasm. She could guess the change in Houzi’s attitude had something to do with her items. It seems like her stuff is sold at really high prices.

In the face of huge profits, most people will lower their pride in order to obtain more benefits. What’s more, Houzi is one of those people who dares to take this road for money in this era. Money may be more important to him than his self-esteem.

The awkwardness only lasted a few seconds. When they put the bamboo baskets on the table, Houzi already regained his composure and asked, "Brother, what did you bring today?"

Li Chenmo glanced at him and took away the leaves covering the items in the bamboo basket. Houzi felt a little disappointed when he saw that there were no grains, no meat, and only a few jars. Thinking that meat and grains were hard to come by, his disappointment disappeared the next moment. It is impossible to ask Li Chenmo to have meat and grain for sale at all times.

If they could do it, he would doubt them instead.

Just as Li Chenmo took out the jars from the bamboo basket, Lu Jueyu also took out empanadas and scallion pancakes wrapped in oil paper, as well as two jars of meat sauce from her bamboo basket. In addition to empanadas and scallion pancakes, there are jujube cakes and frozen dumplings.

When Houzi saw the food, his eyes lit up and he said, "Sister-in-law, several people want to buy your jujube cakes and frozen dumplings for the Lantern Festival. Are you willing to accept the order?"

"Sure. My husband and I will not refuse money. Brother Houzi, can you tell us how much the order is? We will try to complete it before the Lantern Festival." Lu Jueyu said with a smile.

After hearing what she said, Houzi felt happy and quickly handed a piece of paper to Lu Jueyu. Lu Jueyu was speechless when she saw what was written on the paper. She thinks since Houzi is good at arithmetic, he can at least write simple words. However, when she saw the piece of paper, all her expectations were shattered. Indeed, education in this era was poor.

There is a drawing of juju cakes and dumplings, and a few lines of words beside it, which can be said to be the number of orders. Although simple, it is easy to understand. Lu Jueyu folded the paper and put it in her pocket.
