Chapter 103

Xiao Cheng took a deep look at her and remained silent. After an unknown amount of time, he said in a tone as if he had thought about it for a long time: "You cook for the rent."

Bai Lu was slightly stunned, just cooking a meal as usual, can it cover the accommodation and food expenses?
Is this a bit too much of a bargain?

However, if she pays for groceries and electricity bills, it seems to be barely equal and mutual assistance.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, Xiao Cheng said, "The food and electricity bills will be deducted from 3 yuan."

Bai Lu couldn't believe her ears, and wondered if she was delusional: "You mean, I don't have to pay for the grocery and electricity bills, and it's all included in the 3 yuan I owe you? I use sugar to fry chestnuts." Use the money you earn to buy groceries, and when you make up 3 yuan, deduct the groceries for this period of time, and then return the rest of the money to you?"

Xiao Cheng nodded slightly, acknowledging her understanding.

Bai Lu stared at him in a daze: "I just cook a meal and all the rent is paid off, and I don't have to pay for food and accommodation, so you are at a disadvantage?"

Moreover, she was able to occupy the troubled territory of local snakes everywhere, and successfully opened a market to sell sugar-fried chestnuts, which somewhat benefited from the protection of Xiao Cheng's reputation as a bully.

It's not that she can't sell it on her own, but she will definitely be in trouble, and it won't be as smooth as it is now.

The incident of Wang Cuihua and Wen Xiuyun being dumped is the most obvious example. The market here is not smooth.

How could he be so talkative that he didn't charge her rent, and didn't even charge her a convenience and protection fee for any reason?
Xiao Cheng had a panoramic view of Bai Lu's surprised and puzzled expression, and said lightly, "It's not a loss."

The tone of a local tyrant and landlord who is not short of money.

Bai Lu was really shocked. At the beginning, she cooperated with Wen Xiuyun to sell fried chestnuts in sugar. When she said [-]% profit, this guy still looked at her like a stupid child.

I think she stretched her neck out to be chopped by others.

Why now...she kind of feels...he's the stupid kid...he's stretching his neck out to chop her up?
Could it be, because of that level, an undocumented husband and wife relationship without any legal effect?
Bai Lu felt that it was necessary to clarify: "I moved back to your house at the time because I went to the hospital for an examination and received a pregnancy test report. I thought I was pregnant, so I packed up my things and came to your house. I asked you to talk to my mother..."

"Talk about the betrothal gift." As soon as the betrothal gift was mentioned, Bai Lu remembered that the original body was forced by Li Xuelan to come to Xiao Cheng's house, asked Xiao Cheng out, and used the child to threaten him to compromise.

Even though she didn't do it, I still feel a little bit sorry for it, and I always feel that I have made Xiao Cheng miserable.

The tone couldn't help but soften a little: "I know you don't want to marry me. The marriage certificate meal that the representatives of both parties ate back then was just a formality for you. Moreover, we didn't get the certificate, so we can't be regarded as a real husband and wife."

At that time, Yuanshen was not yet old enough to receive a marriage certificate, Yuanshen's parents were present at the wedding ceremony, Xiao Cheng had no relatives here, and it was Lao Hu who showed up.

According to the provisions of the domestic marriage law, a man and a woman do not have a marriage certificate and do not belong to a marriage relationship between husband and wife.

After February 1994, 2, the domestic marriage law clearly stipulated that so-called undocumented de facto marriages were no longer recognized, and cohabitation in the name of husband and wife could only be regarded as a cohabitation relationship.

Not a husband and wife relationship.

Legally, they are not protected by any marriage laws.

Strictly speaking, a marriage certificate is not a basis for any relationship between husband and wife, and has no legal effect.

It's impossible for Xiao Cheng not to know, Bai Lu guessed that what he was thinking at the time, probably only wanted children.

After all, he made the compromise for the sake of the child, he ignored the original body, ignored him, didn't go home for three days, and when he returned home, he each did his own thing, ignoring each other.

It doesn't matter to him whether he gets the certificate or not.

When Bai Lu thought that Xiao Cheng would respond perfunctorily with the word "um" like when he was talking about the rent, when he raised his eyes, he saw that Xiao Cheng's calm expression had turned cold at some point.

His tone was also cold: "What do you want to say?"

Bai Lu paused, ignoring the cold gaze being watched, and said euphemistically, "We didn't get the certificate. In fact, you don't have to treat me as well as you treat the relationship between husband and wife. Everything can be done according to the normal process."

"Also, we don't have to sleep together at night..."

Before he could finish speaking, the man got up and left. The sound of the left chair turning was extremely indifferent and aloof.

The face that passed by was gloomy like the sea, the sound of footsteps couldn't conceal the violent rhythm, and the back was hidden in the darkness.

He was angry again.

Bai Lu sighed, not understanding the big brother's volatile temper, forget it, let's talk about it tonight.

Li Bingkun tore up Wen Xiuyun's fruit stand in public, and all the candied chestnuts fell to the ground, and Li Bingkun spat on it twice, so he definitely couldn't sell them to customers.

It has been packaged and taken away by Li Bingkun. He has to take it if he doesn’t want it, and eats the saliva he spits.

Therefore, in the afternoon, I have to fry another batch of chestnuts and send them to Wen Xiuyun's stall.

Bai Lu quickly sorted out her messy emotions, got up and went to the kitchen, and continued to work hard to make money.

When I got to the kitchen, I saw that Xiao Cheng, who had a gloomy face and kept away from others, was already standing by the pot frying chestnuts.

Yes, he fried it himself.

Even the electric chestnut stir-frying machine is no longer needed.

That Kongwu's powerful forearm with strong muscles was wrapped under the sleeve of a black shirt, holding a spatula in his hand, shoveling a shovel, making the sand and chestnuts in the pot rattle.

For some reason, Bai Lu suddenly thought of the three-year-old boy who got drunk and lost his temper in the bathroom that night.

It seems to be the same, not talking, ignoring people, and losing his temper when he catches something.

That night it was water, now it is sand and chestnuts, and one, the innocent spatula.

Bai Lu wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so she could only endure it.

He seems to have spotted her.

But without even looking at her, he threw three words over from the air: "Bring the sugar."

Bai Lu obediently took the maltose jars on the table, reached out and took out two for the boss.

The boss finally looked at her, his handsome face was still gloomy, and he frowned: "Tangxi."

Bai Lu stared blankly at her hand, only to realize that she seemed to have picked it up wrongly, the stir-fried chestnuts should be filled with syrup.

Stir-fried chestnuts with maltose, what the hell!

Hurry up and bring over the sugar syrup bucket on the small square table, there is only half a barrel of sugar syrup left, let's dilute it after using it up.

Bai Lu stood motionless by the stove, watching the boss stir-fry chestnuts, and from time to time gave a super affirmative thumb and a sweet smile.

The three-year-old child and the evil dragon also have something in common, with a gloomy face, just a few more compliments.

If you lose your temper, don't talk, just coax.

Wen Xiuyun pulled a small wooden cart to pull chestnuts, and saw Xiao Cheng, who had beaten people to death in the morning, came out with a dustpan of chestnuts in both hands, and poured them into a big basket.

The irritability on his face has been replaced by calmness and indifference. Looking carefully, there is still a little gentleness that has not dissipated.

Wen Xiuyun looked behind him.

Sure enough, Bai Lu, who was gentle and smiling, followed behind in small steps.

Who said that only the wicked can grind the wicked.

But cute little sweets can do the same!
