Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 119
Chapter 119: Li Chenmo’s Plan
Today is the New Year, and many people will visit the Lu family. So, Lu Jueyu needs to prepare more red envelopes for the children. She gave two Yuan to Lu Wenyi, Lu Wenmu, and Lu Wenfeng. As for Li Jingqian and Li Jingxu, she already gave the red envelope to them yesterday.
In addition to the red envelopes for the children, she also prepared a stack of red envelopes containing ten cents for the children of the visitors. Under normal circumstances, villagers only give red envelopes of one or two cents to children who visit their house. As for their own children, they only give them 30 cents at most. After all, you can buy a maltose for 10 cents.
After Lu Jueyu finished preparing the red envelope, she left the space and went to check on the old hen. She picked five eggs, placed them in her space, and filled the chicken feeder and water bowl. Later, she went to water the peach tree and the plot for planting vegetables in the front and back yard.
Just when she lit the fire in the kitchen, Li Chenmo woke up. He yawned and came to the kitchen and saw his wife already working.
“Wife, let me help you.” He walked into the kitchen and said hoarsely.
Lu Jueyu walked over, kissed his chin, and said, “Good morning, husband.”
Li Chenmo smiled smugly in his heart. Now, his wife would take the initiative to kiss him. It seems his plan to boil the frog in warm water worked. Although he was in a joyful mood, his expression remained calm. He lowered his head and kissed Lu Jueyu’s soft lips.
“Good morning, wife.” He said with a smile and looked at her deeply.
Lu Jueyu was stunned by his sudden kiss and stood there motionless. Li Chenmo was very satisfied with her reaction, patted her head gently, and went to light the fire. He lowered his head, and no one saw his sly smile.
As he tended to the fire, he couldn’t help but think, ‘The next goal is for her to get used to me kissing her lips. When she gets used to it, then…hehe…’
At this time, Lu Jueyu didn’t know what indecent thoughts her husband had in his heart. Although the kiss was fleeting, her heart was still beating fast. After taking a few deep breaths, she finally calmed down and asked, “Husband, shall we have Tang Yuan for breakfast?”
“Alright.” Li Chenmo agreed readily.
Both worked in silence. Although no one spoke, the atmosphere was warm and comfortable. Not awkward at all. In addition to Tang Yuan, Lu Jueyu also made turnip cakes and longevity noodles. Although eating longevity noodles is common when celebrating birthdays, it symbolizes health and wealth. So, it is also consumed on the first day of the new year.
When breakfast was almost ready, Lu Jueyu said, “Husband, go wash up and change into new clothes. I will deliver breakfast to the room in a while.”
“Okay.” Li Chenmo took the hot water and went to wash up.
After washing up, Li Chenmo saw a new set of clothes on the bed. The clothes were made by his wife and given to him before they got married. He wasn’t willing to wear it before for fear of getting it dirty. But today, he was happy to wear it.
After changing his clothes, he took a look at Lu Jueyu’s new clothes on the bed. When he discovered that their clothes were made of the same material and color, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curve. The longer he looked at it, the more pleasing the clothes became. It’s nice to wear the same color clothes as his wife. This way, people will know they are husband and wife at a glance.
When Lu Jueyu entered the house, she saw her husband stroking his new clothes with a smile. She thought he was very happy as he rarely had new clothes. At that moment, she pitied him for not having a mother to dote on him and decided to be nicer to him in the future.
Li Chenmo heard her footsteps and turned around to take the tray in her hand. He put the food on the table and said, “Wife, you have finished your medicine. We should go to the doctor to have your check-up again.”
Although she felt there was no need to see a doctor, Lu Jueyu agreed just to reassure him. She nodded and said, “Okay. Should we go to see Doctor Xie tomorrow?”
“Alright.”
After a brief conversation, they had breakfast. After breakfast, Li Chenmo went to wash the dishes, while Lu Jueyu went to the bathroom, then entered her own space to take a shower and put on new clothes.
After that, she went to their room. While she was braiding her hair, Li Chenmo walked into the room. He saw a pair of red hairpins in his wife’s hair and smiled.
“Wife, you look beautiful.” He walked over and kissed her cheek.
Lu Jueyu chuckled and said proudly, “I was born beautiful. It’s just that I was sick before, so no one noticed my beauty.”
“Mhmm. Fortunately, no one noticed your beauty, which worked to my advantage.” Li Chenmo said in a low voice, with a hint of teasing in his voice.
“Alright, it’s not early anymore. We should go out now.” Lu Jueyu said after braiding her hair.
“I’ll get the bamboo basket.”
Lu Jueyu locked the bedroom door and waited for Li Chenmo in the living room. Seeing him coming, she locked the house and the gate before going to Lu’s house. Along the way, they saw children running wildly with smiles on their faces. Their pockets were filled with roasted nuts, candies, and melon seeds given by the villagers they visited.
This is the first time she has experienced such a festive New Year. In her previous life, she lived in the capital, and people no longer celebrated the New Year like they used to.
