Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 11

Chapter 11: Our Family’s Money ( 1 )
Lu Jueyu smiled and said, “I’m bringing some dinner for brother Chenmo and Uncle Li. Uncle Li is busy repairing the house and has no time to cook.”

The villagers looked at each other after hearing her words. After a while, one of them said, “Then hurry up, or the food will be cold.”

“Then I take my leave first. Goodbye, aunts.” Lu Jueyu nodded to them, turned and left.

After Lu Jueyu had walked far away, a villager said, “It seems that she has no intention to cancel the engagement.”

“What nonsense are you talking about? No matter what happens to Old Li’s third son, after that incident, she can only marry him.” Another villager said.

“That’s true. It’s just a pity that such a beautiful girl is married to a cripple.”

“Even if he’s limping and can’t work in the fields, he doesn’t have to worry about food. Even if he earns five work points a day, the money he makes when he was in the army is enough to feed him and his family for several years.”

Hearing her words, the other villagers fell silent. If it weren’t for the injury, it is estimated that many families would want him to be their son-in-law. After all, his salary is high, and he is also the most handsome man in their production team.

When Lu Jueyu arrived at Li’s house, she saw a girl wandering outside the door. Thinking of seeing this girl in her dream, she frowned. As an educated youth, her behavior was really shameless, and she kept bothering Li Chenmo.

“What are you doing here?” She asked when she stood a meter away from Su Anna.

Su Anna was startled by her, and almost dropped the chicken soup in her hand. When she turned her head and saw Lu Jueyu, her face suddenly became gloomy. She looked at her coldly and asked, “What does this have to do with you?”

Lu Jueyu raised her eyebrows and asked, “You are wandering in front of my fiancé’s house like a thief. Is it wrong for me to ask what you are doing?”

Su Anna was very jealous when she heard Lu Jueyu call the man she liked as her fiancé. She glared at her and said, “Don’t be complacent, if the villagers didn’t force Brother Chenmo, he would never even glance at you!”

Before Lu Jueyu could say anything, Father Li opened the wooden gate. When he saw Su Anna, his face darkened and he frowned.

“Uncle Li, I..”

Before Su Anna finished speaking, Father Li had already looked at Lu Jueyu, and his expression changed immediately. His dark face instantly became sunny and full of smiles.

He took the big jar and basket from Lu Jueyu and said, “Xiao Yu, why are you standing outside? This is your home, when you come in the future just come in.”

Hearing the deep meaning in Father Li’s words, Lu Jueyu just smiled and said, “Uncle, I bring some dinner for you and brother Chenmo.”

“You’ve worked hard, come in. Chenmo has been waiting for you.” Father Li urged Lu Jueyu to enter the house while talking.

Bam!

He closed the door loudly without looking back, leaving Su Anna standing outside in embarrassment. She followed behind Father Li and when he closed the gate, it almost hit her nose. She gritted her teeth and looked at the closed door with bloodshot eyes.

“Damn old man, if you weren’t brother Chenmo’s father, I would have dealt with you long ago.” She cursed in a low voice.

When she looked at the cold chicken soup in her hand, she couldn’t help scolding Father Li again in her heart. She spent so much money asking the villager to cook this chicken soup, but he didn’t even let her into the house. Hearing laughter coming from the house, she could only suppress her jealousy and anger. She walked away with a dark face.

The aunts all looked at her meaningfully when they saw her coming from Li’s house carrying a jar. Almost everyone in the village knew that there was an educated youth who liked Old Li’s third son, but he never paid any attention to her. While they despised her shamelessness, they couldn’t help but envy the Li family. After all, these educated youths are all from the county seat or city.

If Li Chenmo marries her, as long as he is willing to marry into her family, he can become a city citizen. But based on their understanding of the man from the Li family, they are convinced that this is harder than reaching the sky. The so-called city citizenship is meaningless to Li Chenmo.

When the villagers were talking about Su Anna, Lu Jueyu had already forgotten about her. At this moment, she was sitting beside the bed in Li Chenmo’s room, with a puzzled look on her face.

“Why didn’t you open it?” Li Chenmo asked, observing her expression.

Lu Jueyu looked at the two big cans in front of her, and looked at him with questioning eyes. Under his gaze, she opened the can and saw it was filled with money, tied in a bundle with twine. When she saw the amount of the money, she was stunned.

She opened another can and saw the coupons store neatly inside. These coupons are not locally issued coupons with an expiration date, but national coupons that can be used nationwide without any expiration date. In addition to food coupons, meat coupons, grains coupons, fabric coupons, and other coupons, there are also some industrial coupons.

She looked up at him. After a while, she said probingly, “This…”

“This is all my money including my savings, reward, and pension. I’ll leave it to you to manage it.” He said casually.

“It’s not appropriate, you’d better keep it by yourself.” She closed the cans and pushed it to him,

Li Chenmo frowned and asked, “Why is it inappropriate?”

“We’re not married yet, how can I keep your money?” She waves her hand.
