Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 192

Chapter 192: Pan Meijia’s Suspicions ( 1 )
As Lu Jueyu walked home, she picked up a basket of pigweed. The children were surprised to see her return with a basket of pigweed.

A child came up and asked, “Sister, where did you find so much pigweed?”

“I found it near the mountain. There is a lot of pigweed there.” Lu Jueyu said, pointing in the direction of the mountain.

After listening to her words, the children gasped and said, “Sister, you can’t go to the mountain. My parents said we are not allowed to go up the mountain.”

“Why?” Lu Jueyu asked.

“The team leader said there are wild boars and it’s dangerous for us to go there,” said an older child.

After a while, Lu Jueyu said, “I don’t know about this. If that’s the case, then we shouldn’t go into the mountains again.”

The children looked at her basket and said enviously, “Sister, with so much pigweed, you can earn at least 5 work points.”

“I have no intention of giving it to the team. My family raises pigs, so I will use it to feed my pigs.” Lu Jueyu said with a smile.

After a brief conversation, Lu Jueyu returned to her home. She went to her space, placed the pigweeds to the warehouse for later use, and went to check out the store. Seeing a lot of new seeds in the store, Lu Jueyu bought them and planted them. She plants a lot of medicinal herbs, especially Ganoderma lucidum and wild ginseng in larger fields because they take longer to mature.

After planting the seeds, she went to prepare lunch. Like yesterday, she made steamed buns stuffed with meat fillings. She also prepared bone broth and a plate of stir-fry vegetables. In addition to lunch, she also prepared some banana cake for her husband as a snack.

After leaving the space, she packed her lunch and snacks into a three-layered bamboo basket, took a kettle of water, locked the house, and went to deliver lunch.

When she walked to the north area, Lu Jueyu saw Pan Meijia plowing the farmland near the village hall. She looked around and found that most of the people assigned to the central area were educated youth. She walked over and found that Pan Meijia’s clothes were soaked with sweat.

“Meijia.” Lu Jueyu called her from the side of the road.

When she heard someone calling her name, Pan Meijia stopped what she was doing and turned around. When she saw that the person calling her was Lu Jueyu, a smile appeared on her face. She walked over and asked, “Jueyu, are you delivering lunch to your husband?”

“Yes, do you want some water?” Lu Jueyu asked.

“Yes! I have finished drinking my water.” Pan Meijia did not refuse and said with a sigh.

Lu Jueyu put down the three-layered bamboo basket and took out a cup. She handed the cup to Pan Meijia and poured her a glass of water. The water in the kettle comes from her space. Drinking it could restore energy and reduce fatigue.

Pan Meijia drank a few gulps of water and breathed a sigh of relief. She wiped the water from her lips and said, “Thank you for the water, Jueyu. I finally feel alive.”

“No problem. Give me your thermos and I’ll fill it up for you.” Lu Jueyu said.

“If you give me the water. Will it be enough for your husband?” Pan Meijia asked.

“I can get him more water later. I don’t have much to do at home, so I can come again later.”

“In that case, I won’t be polite to you. Thank you, Jueyu!” Pan Meijia went to get the thermos bottle and handed it to Lu Jueyu.

After filling the thermos, Lu Jueyu handed two steamed buns to Pan Meijia and said, “I made more. This is for you.”

Pan Meijia held the steamed bun and said gratefully, “Jueyu, you are the best. If I were a man, I would definitely marry you.”

“What nonsense are you talking about? If my husband hears this, he might be jealous again.” Lu Jueyu was amused by her words and let out a laugh.

“Nevermind then. Your husband is too scary, he can even get jealous toward a woman. Yesterday, my parents gave me some dried fruits. I will send some to you later.” Pan Meijia recalled the package she received yesterday.

“Okay. I’m leaving now, see you later.” Lu Jueyu nodded and left.

Not long after Lu Jueyu left, Ling Yun raised his head and saw that the sun was already above their heads. He walked up to Pan Meijia and said, “Comrade Pan, can you give me some water? I have finished mine.”

Pan Meijia looked at the man in front of her and said, “Okay, give me your cup.”

Ling Yun went to get his bamboo water bottle and handed it to her.

When Pan Meijia saw that the water bottle was made of bamboo, she said, “Wow, this water bottle is so beautiful. Where did you buy it?”

“I made it myself. If you like it, I will make one for you. This water bottle can only be used for 18 months at most and needs to be replaced.” Ling Yun said.

“Can it last so long? Then can you please make one for me? I’ll pay you for the materials.” Pan Meijia looked at the water bottle and said.

Ling Yun nodded after listening to her words, but he didn’t intend to ask for her money. It was just a small thing, and it won’t take long for him to make a bottle. He owed her much more than that.

After pouring half of the water into Ling Yun’s bottle, Pan Meijia asked, “Did you bring lunch?”

“I had some pancakes this morning.”

Hearing his words, Pan Meijia was stunned for a moment. It is not uncommon for villagers to eat two meals a day, but that is when they are not working. Now they have to work in the fields all day and need three meals a day. Otherwise, they may become sick because their bodies cannot handle the workload.
