Marrying a village tyrant husband with space, being spoiled by the in-laws

The two men walked to the city gate, paid four cents, and entered the city smoothly.

"Brother Chengjin, there are fewer people in this town. It's usually so lively."

Li Gouzi couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the deserted streets.

"It costs a penny to enter the town now, who would go to the town for no reason? Come on, come with me to deliver the goods, I'll treat you to some meat buns later."

The two men came all the way to the back door of the Zhu Mansion, where Butler Cao happened to come out, still explaining something to the doorman.

Li Chengjin walked forward and waited for the two to finish talking before speaking.

"Uncle Cao, do you still remember me? I came here today to deliver honey-glazed apricots to your house. Your second young lady ordered them yesterday."

"Of course I remember you. I know about this. It turns out that this thing was sent by your family. After the second young lady came back, she praised me a lot and repeatedly told me to always pay attention to when you would deliver the goods so that I could report to her immediately."

"This morning, my aunt brought my cousin back to visit her parents. She praised the food highly."

Cao Xu was also curious about what these honey-juiced apricots were like, as they were praised by all the young ladies in the mansion.

Li Chengjin took out a can of honey apricots directly from the car and handed it to Cao Xu respectfully.

"This is homemade food, Uncle Cao, please don't mind you trying it. Last time I said I'd send you a wild rabbit, but I've been busy making this lately and haven't had time to pay."

Cao Xu didn't refuse and took it directly. He was also curious about the taste of it.

"Haha, then I'll accept it without hesitation. Don't leave yet. I'll deliver the food. If the ladies eat it and say they like it, they may ask you for it again in the future. It won't be too late for you to leave after we have decided on a time to deliver the food."

Since you have taken advantage of others, you have to do something for them, right? Cao Xu has been the chief steward for half his life, and there is nothing he cannot see through.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Cao."

Ten cans of wild cherries and ten cans of wild peaches, a total of twenty cans, were moved into the mansion. After about a quarter of an hour, a round-faced maid ran over panting.

Seeing that the person at the door had not left yet, he held on to the door frame and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's a good thing you didn't leave. The young lady said that the two new foods were very delicious. She also asked you to make 30 more cans of each flavor and send them over in seven days. The young lady also said that you can pay a deposit of three taels of silver first."

The round-faced maid spoke breathlessly, obviously tired from running all the way here.

Li Gouzi was stunned as he listened at the side. What new food had Chengjin's family made that could make so much money? The deposit alone was three taels of silver.

It was not like he had not been on a delivery team before, and they were all roasted peanuts, beans and the like. Each time he delivered half a truckload, he earned no more than one or two taels of silver.

"Okay, then it's a deal. I'll send you a total of jars in seven days."

Li Chengjin was very happy. His wife was really amazing. She could make such delicious honey apricots.

Cao Xu directly gave five taels of silver, two taels were the price of today's goods, and three taels were the deposit.

"Uncle Cao, please ask someone to bring paper and pen so I can write you a receipt for the deposit."

"Haha, that's not necessary. It's just three taels of silver. I think you are a good young man and you are trustworthy. There is no need to go to so much trouble."

It’s not that Cao Xu really doesn’t care, but the Zhu family is one of the most prominent wealthy families in Xiushui Town.

No one dared to embezzle the Zhu family's money, not to mention that when comparing three taels of silver with long-term business in the future, I believe everyone knows how to make a choice.

"Since Uncle Cao trusts me so much, I will not let you down. I will take my leave now."

There are more than thirty cans of goods on the car that need to be delivered to Xunfangge.

The car was halfway there when Li Gouzi finally reacted and asked excitedly.

"Brother Chengjin, what kind of food is your family making now that is so valuable and easy to sell?"

"This is a secret recipe passed down from your sister-in-law's family. However, it uses precious materials and won't last long."

"I'll have to make other food to sell in a while. You can sell some of it if you want to, and make some money to support the family. Don't go out gambling and fooling around anymore. At your age, it's time for you to get married, so your mother can rest assured."

Li Gouzi touched his head and chuckled.

"It's different now that I'm married. Brother Chengjin, you wouldn't have advised me like this before. I heard from people in the village that my sister-in-law is so beautiful, like a lady from a wealthy family in town. No wonder she can control you so well."

The two arrived at the place while talking, and Li Chengjin parked the car in front of the door of Xunfang Pavilion.

When Li Gouzi looked up, he saw several girls dressed up in fancy clothes smiling at them. His face changed instantly. He reached out to pull Li Chengjin, but he couldn't find him after searching for a long time.

"Brother, Brother Chengjin, what are you doing? You brought me to a place like this in broad daylight. Didn't you just tell me to work hard and earn money to marry a wife? What are you doing? I'm telling you, I'm not that kind of person. I, I, I'm still a virgin!"

Li Gouzi spoke incoherently and stuttered.

Although he likes to spend some money, he doesn't like visiting brothels. He heard that the women there are more terrifying than tigers.

"What are you thinking about? I brought you here to deliver the goods. Hurry up and help move the things!"

"Oh, you're here to deliver the goods! I'm so scared!"

Li Chengjin was too lazy to look at his cowardly look, so he got out of the car and walked inside with confidence.

Several girls who had seen him greeted him with a smile. This delivery boy was really handsome. If the customers who came every day were of this quality, they would be happy to ask for less money.

When the girls who had placed orders heard that the delivery man for the honey-juiced apricots had arrived, they came down from upstairs in groups of three or four.

Soon the more than 30 cans in the car were almost divided up.

The girl who placed the most orders was Xinghua. She was always the first to come when the goods were delivered in the past. Today, everyone else had already taken theirs, but she was still not here.

Li Chengjin couldn't help but ask

"Is Miss Xinghua not here today?"

"Yes, she is in her room. When she heard that someone wanted to redeem her, she got very angry."

There was a hint of envy in the pink-dressed woman's tone.

"Then I'll keep these for now. As for the money, you can give it to me next time."

Li Chengjin didn't want to stay here any longer as he still had important things to do.

At this time, a little maid ran down from upstairs.

"Sir, please help carry these upstairs. The girl said you can go upstairs and give you the rest of the money."

He frowned, but then he thought that the little girl couldn't carry six jars, so he nodded in agreement and followed the maid upstairs.

As soon as the two went upstairs, they heard a man shouting loudly.

"I want to redeem Xinghua. Mom, just tell me how much money is enough."
