90s, The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Paranoid Boss is Reborn

Chapter 104 The boss’s method of collecting rent

Xiao Cheng looked at her deeply and remained silent for an unknown amount of time before he spoke in a tone that seemed to have been thoughtful for a long time: "You cook to pay the rent."

Bai Lu was stunned. Just cooking as usual can cover the accommodation and food expenses?

 Is this a bit too good a deal?

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

Unexpectedly, Xiao Cheng said in the next second: "The cost of buying vegetables and electricity will be deducted from 30,000 yuan."

Bai Lu didn't believe her ears, and wondered if Mo Zai was hallucinating: "You mean, I don't have to pay for the food and electricity bills, and they are all included in the 30,000 yuan I owe you? I used to sell sugar to roast chestnuts. Use the money you earn to buy groceries, and when you get 30,000 yuan, you will deduct the money spent on groceries during this period, and then return the remaining money to you? "

ˆXiao Cheng nodded slightly, acknowledging her understanding.

Bai Lu looked at him blankly: "I just cook a meal to cover all the rent, and I don't have to pay for food or accommodation. Aren't you at a disadvantage?"

Furthermore, she was able to successfully open up a market and sell sugar and roasted chestnuts in this troubled territory dominated by local snakes, which was somewhat benefited from the protection of Xiao Cheng's reputation as a bully.

 On her own, it is not impossible to sell, but it will definitely be troublesome, and it will not be as smooth as it is now.

The incident where Wang Cuihua and Wen Xiuyun were kicked off their stalls is the most obvious example. The market here is not peaceful.

How could he be so easy to talk to, not only not charging her rent, but also charging her convenience and shelter fees for any reason?

Xiao Cheng took in Bai Lu's surprised and confused expression, and said calmly: "It's not a loss."

 The tone is that of a rich and wealthy landowner who is not short of money.

Bai Lu was really shocked. When she first cooperated with Wen Xiuyun to sell sugar-roasted chestnuts, when she told her that the profit was 50/50, the guy looked at her like a stupid child.

Feeling like she stretched her neck out to be chopped off by others.

 Why now...she feels a little bit...he is the stupid kid...he is stretching his neck out to chop her?

  Could it be that at that level, the undocumented marital relationship has no legal effect?

Bai Lu felt it was necessary to clarify: "I moved back to your house at that time because I went to the hospital for a check-up and received a pregnancy test confirmation. I thought I was pregnant, so I packed my things and came to your house to ask you to talk to my mother..."

"Let's talk about the betrothal gift." When Bai Lu mentioned the betrothal gift, she remembered that she was forced by Li Xuelan to come to Xiao Cheng's house, ask Xiao Cheng out, and use the child to threaten him to compromise.

Even though it wasn't her who did it, she still felt a little guilty, feeling that she had tricked Xiao Cheng.

He couldn't help but soften his tone: "I know you don't want to marry me. The wedding meal that the representatives of both parties had at the beginning was just a formality. Moreover, we didn't get the certificate, so we can't be considered a real couple."

At that time, the original person was under age and could not get a marriage certificate. At the wedding meal, the original person's parents were present. Xiao Cheng had no relatives, so it was Lao Hu who was present.

 According to domestic marriage laws, if a man and a woman do not have a marriage certificate, they are not married.

 After February 1, 1994, the domestic marriage law clearly stipulates that so-called undocumented de facto marriages will no longer be recognized. Cohabitation in the name of husband and wife can only be regarded as a cohabitation relationship.

 It does not count as a marital relationship.

 Legally, not protected by any marriage law.

 A marriage certificate, strictly speaking, is not the 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 was that he probably just wanted a child.

After all, he made a compromise for the sake of the child. He ignored and ignored the original person. He did not come home for three days or two. When he returned home, he did his own thing and ignored each other.

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

Just when Bai Lu thought that Xiao Cheng would respond with the word "hmm" perfunctorily like when negotiating the rent, she looked up and saw that Xiao Cheng's calm expression suddenly turned cold.

 The tone of his mouth was also cold: "What do you want to say?"

 Bai Lu paused, ignoring the cold gaze, and said tactfully: "We don't have a certificate. In fact, you don't have to be so nice to me like you treat your relationship as a husband and wife. Everything can be done according to the normal process."

“Also, we don’t have to sleep together at night…”

Before he finished speaking, the man stood up and left. The chair he left behind turned around, showing his extreme indifference and aloofness.

The face that passed by was as gloomy as the sea, the footsteps could not hide the violent rhythm, and the back disappeared into the darkness.    He was angry again.

Bai Lu sighed, not understanding the boss's unstable temper, forget it, let's talk about it at night.

Li Bingkun demolished Wen Xiuyun's fruit stall in public. All the sugar-roasted chestnuts fell to the ground. Li Bingkun even spat on them twice. He will definitely not be able to sell them to customers again.

It has been packed and taken away by Li Bingkun. He has to take it if he doesn't want it, and he can eat his own spit.

 So, I have to fry another batch of chestnuts in the afternoon and deliver them to Wen Xiuyun’s stall.

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

When he got to the kitchen, he saw Xiao Cheng, who had a gloomy look on his face and kept away from strangers, already standing by the pot frying chestnuts.

 Yes, he did it himself.

 Even the electric chestnut frying machine is no longer used.

The powerful forearms with strong texture were wrapped under the sleeves of the black shirt. They were holding a spatula in their hands, and they were frying the sand and chestnuts in the pot, making a clanking sound.

For some reason, Bai Lu suddenly thought of the three-year-old man who was drunk and had a tantrum in the bathroom that night.

It seems to be the same, he doesn't speak, ignores others, and gets angry when he catches something.

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

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

 He seemed to have discovered her.

But without even looking at her, he threw three words in the air: "Bring me candy."

Bai Lu obediently took the maltose jar 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: "Tang Xi."

Bai Lu looked at her hand blankly and realized that she seemed to have picked it up by mistake. The roasted chestnuts should be diluted with sugar.

 Put maltose into roasted chestnuts, what the **** are you frying!

Hurrying to pick up the bucket of sugar syrup on the small square table, there is only a small half bucket of sugar syrup left. Let's dilute it after use.

Bai Lu stood motionless by the stove, watching the boss roasting chestnuts, giving him a super thumbs up from time to time and a sweet smile.

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

Don't say anything when you are angry, just coax him away.

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

 The irritability on his face has been replaced by calmness and indifference, and if you look closely, there is still a bit of gentleness that has not faded away.

Wen Xiuyun looked behind him.

Sure enough, Bai Lu, who was gentle and smiling, was following behind.

Who said only evil people can grind away evil people?

The same goes for cute little Tiantian!
