Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 473

Li Chenze was stunned when he heard his wife’s words. He raised his head and asked, "Wife, what did you say?"

Zhang Dongmei cleared her throat and said, "Let me ask you, do you still want a child?"

Seeing her husband looking at her in disbelief, Zhang Dongmei felt a little disappointed. She lowered her head and said, "If you don’t want to..."

Before she finished speaking, Li Chenze interrupted her, "I want it! Wife, let’s have another child!"

"Are you sure you want another child?" she asked again.

Li Chenze nodded and said with a smile, "Of course! I have always wanted to have more children, but since you are the one who gave birth to them, I leave the decision to you. Wife, you have already said it. You can’t take back your words."

Looking at her husband who was smiling like a little boy, Zhang Dongmei smiled and said, "En, let’s have another child this year."

"Wife, don’t worry. I will work hard and let you have another child this year!"

Seeing his excitement, Zhang Dongmei said with a low voice, "Keep your voice down, what if Father hears it?"

"It doesn’t matter. My father really wants to have another grandchild too. It would be best if we could have a daughter. She will be as cute and beautiful as you." Li Chenze said with a smile.

At the same time, in a desolate corner of the town, several old people were sitting on old benches. They drank hot water as they rested.

One of them took a sip of water and said, "Old Mo, I heard that you often go to that place. You must be careful when you go there. Patrols have been stepped up recently."

"I have no choice. My grandson’s illness can only be cured by drinking tonic wine." Old Mo sighed.

"Have you taken him to a doctor?" another old man asked.

Old Mo looked at him and said, "It’s not like you don’t know what will happen if we go to the hospital."

Old Mo shook his head and said, "How is that possible? I don’t even know if he left the country safely because it was so chaotic at the time." _{fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm}

Everyone looked around and paid before starting to eat. They slowly tasted the meat buns as if they were the best delicacies in the world. Old Mo looked at them and smiled. The meat buns he bought cost 70 cents, while others needed 1 yuan to buy them. He can earn 30 cents for each meat bun.

Although it’s not much, it’s not a small amount either. When he overheard a conversation between Houzi and his men, he learned that they had to pay the girl 80 cents for each meat bun. He knew he was being treated differently because of that girl’s request.

Thinking of the girl whose face he didn’t even know, he felt grateful. Not just because he got a discount, but because he got the buying priority. He can buy food without pre-order and there is no limit on the amount of food or drinks he can buy. He could even use the useless jade to pay for her goods.

Now he can be considered one of the middlemen in the black market. Unlike Houzi who sells food to rich people, he sells food to common and the ’wicked’ people. Because the market is different, Houzi didn’t bother when he found out he sold the food.

But if he wants to buy more tonic wine, he needs to dig out the gold and jade he buried before he was caught. Judging from all the food and drinks he had bought before, the best thing to nourish his grandson’s body was tonic wine. Although the price is sky-high, the taste and health benefits are guaranteed.

His grandson was born with heart disease and asthma. Everyone thought he would not live past the age of ten. At first, he and his wife thought so too. But when his grandson ate the honey, wild ginseng, and food sold by the girl, his condition slowly improved.

He never felt short of breath or got a heart attack again, especially after drinking the tonic wine. He can even get out of bed and move around now. He just doesn’t know if his gold and jade are enough to buy tonic wine to keep his grandson’s life. He also doesn’t know if it is possible for his grandson to fully recover.
