Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1070

Because of her sad reminiscing about her teacher, no one doubted Lu Jueyu’s products anymore—especially after Mother Pan finished using the face mask and rinsed her face with warm water. When she returned, everyone gasped in surprise.

While she didn’t look like her younger self, she appeared noticeably rejuvenated, almost as if several years had been peeled away from her haggard face. For middle-aged women grappling with the effects of menopause and aging, this was an irresistible allure.

The second aunt turned to Lu Jueyu and asked eagerly, "Jueyu, could you sell me some of these products?"

Caught off guard, Lu Jueyu widened her eyes and responded with a hint of fear, "Second Aunt, private transactions are illegal. I came today to let you know I can’t sell or barter these items."

Then, as if hesitant, she added, "However, I planned to give these creams as a token of thanks for everyone’s help during the wedding banquet."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xue’er’s eyes dimmed with disappointment. It seemed her hopes of earning money from this had been dashed.

Meanwhile, Pan Meijia continued munching on dried vegetables, unbothered. She knew her shrewd friend well—Jueyu would find a way to turn this into a business without breaking any rules.

As if on cue, the second aunt quickly waved her hand and said, "What private transaction? Jueyu, we are family. Between families, we don’t sell or buy things—we give gifts to each other, don’t you agree?"

Lu Jueyu hesitated and nodded, "Well, that seems to be true."

Mother Pan, eager to buy the face masks herself, chimed in, "Jueyu, you can give us the creams and face masks. In return, we will give you red packets as a token of appreciation. That is not a private transaction, right?"

Pan Meijia nearly rolled her eyes into the sky at this familiar line. She had heard it countless times when villagers wanted to buy her friend’s vegetables, fruits, snacks, or wines. Educated ladies or uneducated villagers, it seemed everyone operated the same way.

Following her usual strategy, Lu Jueyu feigned reluctance while everyone worked to persuade her. After half an hour of coaxing, with dry throats and hopeful expressions of everyone, she finally nodded.

When she agreed, smiles of relief spread across the group.

Seated nearby, Pan Meijia shook her head, snacking on fruit slices. She almost pitied her relatives for walking right into her friend’s trap. The next step would undoubtedly be to increase the product’s value by emphasizing its rarity.

Her guesses were confirmed when she heard her friend say worriedly, "But I didn’t bring much cream or face masks with me. I only have a limited amount."

"Well," the fourth aunt said, "you can send us the creams and masks later, and we will send you the red packets."

Mother Pan, knowing how stingy and greedy her sisters-in-law could be, quickly interjected, "That won’t do. What if someone decides not to pay after receiving the items? Wouldn’t that put Jueyu at a disadvantage?"

The fourth aunt bristled at her words,"Are you saying I wouldn’t pay?"
