Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 1101

Chapter 1101: The Wedding Day ( 1 )
After hearing Han Yuheng’s question, Li Lingyun thought for a moment and said, “No need, just prepare two tables for the brigade secretary and staff officers.”

“Alright,” Han Yuheng nodded with a smile.

He was very excited to learn that the Li family really invited the brigade secretary. If he can perform well, his chances of promotion will be greater. Although he is no longer as ambitious as before, he still hopes that he can get a promotion and a raise. In this way, he can give his family a better life.

After a brief conversation, everyone went home, and Li Lingyun went to help his father-in-law. Everyone was busy until 8 o’clock in the evening before they managed to take a shower and went to sleep.

Meanwhile, Li Chenmo and his family had just finished dinner.

While Li Chenmo was checking his daughter’s homework, Dong Li was doing his own homework and catching up on his studies. Taking half a month off from school had caused him to miss six days of classes.

When he returned to school today, he thought he would have difficulty catching up with the lessons. Unexpectedly, when he listened to the teacher’s lecture, he realized that all the material taught in class had already been explained by his father.

As a result, even though he had just returned from the capital, he was able to answer the teacher’s questions, earning the teacher’s praise while his classmates glared at him with jealousy.

While he was immersed in his test paper, Dong Huang was scratching her head while pouting. Her neat braids now looked like a bird’s nest.

Sitting beside her, Li Chenmo glanced at his daughter’s book and sighed quietly. In all his years and countless lifetimes, this was the first time he felt like an inadequate tutor.

Aside from his wife in their previous life, this daughter of his was the second person capable of frustrating him during tutoring sessions.

After waiting another five minutes, he finally sighed aloud and asked, “Xiao Huang, which part of this question don’t you understand?”

Looking at the geometry question in front of her, Dong Huang pouted and said, “Father, Xiao Huang doesn’t understand anything.”

Li Chenmo fell silent upon hearing his daughter’s words. After a moment, he took her pencil and said, “Then let’s start from the beginning. Your foundation isn’t strong enough, so we won’t do any tests for now.”

Dong Huang hesitated for a moment before asking, “Father, am I stupid? I can’t understand this, even though Brother can do it after just one explanation.”

Patting his daughter’s head gently, Li Chenmo replied, “Xiao Huang is not stupid. You and your brother have different strengths and weaknesses. Arithmetic is your weakness, so it’s normal for you to find geometry challenging.”

Dong Li looked at his sister and added, “Xiao Huang, Brother used to find it hard to write essays, but you can do it easily. But after Brother practicing writing essays several times, it’s not as hard as before. So, don’t give up and study well.”

Hearing this, Dong Huang nodded and said, “Xiao Huang understands. Father, Brother, Xiao Huang will work hard.”

“Good,” Li Chenmo smiled.

Li Chenmo began explaining the basics of arithmetic and geometry to his daughter again. He wasn’t disappointed or angry with her at all.

After all, geometry and polygons were part of the fourth-grade curriculum. For a second-grade student to have reached this level of understanding was already more than he had expected.

Two hours later, after the children went to sleep, Li Chenmo returned to his bedroom. When he entered, he saw his wife asleep on the bed, with a book lying on the floor.

Closing the door quietly, he walked to the bed, picked up the book, and lay down beside her. Pulling her into his embrace, he covered them with a thin blanket and drifted off to sleep.

Early the next morning before dawn, Lu Jueyu woke up groggily. Looking at the ceiling, she yawned and stretched her sore body.

When she regained her senses, she noticed that the spot beside her was empty but still warm. Looking around, her husband was nowhere to be seen. After tidying herself up, she went to the backyard and saw her husband collecting eggs.

Hearing her footsteps, Li Chenmo walked over, leaned down to kiss her, and said, “Good morning, wife.”

Lu Jueyu hugged his waist and replied, “Good morning, husband.”

“Go wash up first. I have boiled some water for you,” he said, kissing her again.

“Okay.”

While she went to wash up, Li Chenmo headed to the pigpen. Since it was still early, Lu Jueyu didn’t bother using a bucket and watered the garden directly. As she walked, streams of water gushed from her palm. In the darkness, with no one awake, she finished watering the vegetable gardens in less than fifteen minutes.

Afterward, she went to the kitchen, took out several baskets of steamed buns from her space, and placed them in the bamboo steamers. Beside the steamed buns, she also filled a large earthen jar with hot soy milk. Then she took out a big basket of twisted doughnuts, a pot of vegetable porridge, and a basket of empanadas.

Looking at the amount of the breakfast, she nodded and went to prepare the makeup and skin care for later use.

Today was Li Lingyun and Pan Meijia’s wedding day. Since Pan Meijia was staying at the Lu family’s house, Li Lingyun would pick her up from there. Lu Jueyu planned to head over to her parents’ house to help her friend with bridal makeup.

The Lu family had agreed to act as Pan Meijia’s maternal family, ensuring the bride and groom’s families would be more balanced in number.

As the rooster crowed, Dong Li and Dong Huang woke up and came to the backyard to wash up. Today, the children from the Lu and Li families had taken leave from school. Those who could help woke up early to assist in setting up tables at the village hall after breakfast.
