Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 254

Chapter 254: She Misses Him
After they took Jiao Siyu’s body off the truck, the hospital staff said, “Comrade, this road is not suitable for cars. We can only send you until here.”

“Comrade, thank you for your help. This is a little gift for good luck, please accept it.” Father Li said as he handed an envelope to the hospital staff.

The hospital staff accepted the gift and said, “Then we will take my leave now.”

After the medical truck left, Father Li walked to Li Chenxuan’s house, followed by Li Chenmo and Li Chenze who were carrying the coffin. Fortunately, both of them were very strong and could carry the coffin without any problem.

But despite their strength and strong bodies, they were still sweating profusely when they arrived at Li Chenxuan’s house. The villagers saw them coming and hurried over to help them carry the coffin. Since the coffin could not touch the ground, they placed several benches under the coffin.

Afterwards, they set up a table. A wooden table with Jiao Siyu’s name written on it was placed there. Since there is no photo of her, only her name will be used. Although they can hold funerals as before, they are prohibited from using paper money or other items related to superstition. So, in front of the wooden tablet, there was only a cup of tea.

When everything was ready, Li Chenmo came to the kitchen and found his wife and Pan Meijia were busy making steamed buns and some soup. Hearing the familiar footsteps, Lu Jueyu turned around and saw her husband.

She quickly wiped her hands, walked over and said, “Husband, you are back. Have you eaten? ”

Li Chenmo shook his head and said pitifully, “Wife, I’m hungry.”

When she heard that her husband was hungry and saw his forehead was covered with sweat, Lu Jueyu felt heartache for him. She used her handkerchief to wipe his sweat and said, “Wait for me, I will make some noodles for you.”

Before she could go to the kitchen again, he took her hand, wiped the sweat and flour off her face, and said, “Don’t bother. Just give me some steamed buns.”

Lu Jueyu thought for a while and said, “There is some porridge left in the pot. I’ll fry some eggs for you.”

“Mhmm.”

After a brief conversation, Lu Jueyu returned to the kitchen, while Li Chenmo went outside to help. Lu Jueyu rummaged through the bamboo basket and took out two eggs from the space. She took out this basket when she was alone. With this bamboo basket, it is more convenient for her to take out the things in the space.

After she took two eggs, she took a bowl from the cabinet and broke the eggs. Because the egg has three yolks, she couldn’t let Pan Meijia see it. So, she blocked Pan Meijia’s view with her body, quickly broke the eggs, and then put in the green onions and some vegetables.

Pan Meijia saw her beating eggs and asked, “Jueyu, are you going to make steamed eggs for your husband?”

Lu Jueyu poured some oil into the pot and said, “No, I’ll make him an omelet.”

Seeing her generosity in using oil and seasonings, Pan Meijia clicked her tongue and said, “You treat your husband so well.”

Lu Jueyu smiled when she heard this and said, “If I didn’t treat him well, who would? More importantly, he treats me better than I treat him.”

Pan Meijia rolled her eyes at her and said in a joking tone, “Yes, yes, yes. Your husband is the best.”

Lu Jueyu chuckled lightly when she heard her teasing. It was nice to have her friend with her at the moment. Although she didn’t like Jiao Siyu, she still felt uncomfortable and sad about her sudden death. While Pan Meijia didn’t say anything to comfort her, she could feel her care and worry as she came over the moment she heard the news. Lu Jueyu felt better after hearing her occasional jokes.

After a while, she finished the omelet and put it on the plate. She took a few steamed buns, scooped a bowl of egg porridge, and put them together in a tray. When she brought out the food and a glass of warm tea, she saw Li Chenze and Father Li were chatting with her husband. She looked at them awkwardly, having forgotten about them as she had only made an omelet for her husband.

Father Li and Li Chenze both glanced at the omelet, swallowed their saliva, and just smiled at her without saying anything.

Li Chenmo saw her embarrassment and said, “Wife, can you help me get some more steamed buns for my father and elder brother?”

“Huh? Oh, okay.”

Lu Jueyu quickly handed the tray and glass to her husband, and went to get more food for her father-in-law and brother-in-law. Seeing the omelet, Li Chenze said, “Third brother, the eggs look delicious.”

After hearing what he said, Li Chenmo smiled and said, “Father, brother, I’m going to help my wife.”

After saying that, he went to the kitchen and saw his wife making an omelet. Because Pan Meijia was also there, he did not hug his wife as usual, but just stood beside her. He came closer and whispered, “Wife, is there anything I can help you with?”

Lu Jueyu felt his hot breath brushing her ear and couldn’t help but blush. She glanced at Pan Meijia and saw that she was making steamed buns with vegetable fillings with her head lowered like a robot.

She shyly nudged her husband with her elbow and whispered, “Shouldn’t you be accompanying your father or the guests?”

Li Chenmo looked in the direction of Pan Meijia and saw that she didn’t peek at them at all, and he nodded satisfiedly.

He couldn’t hold himself back, leaned over and kissed his wife’s lovely earlobe, and said, “There are not many guests now, and my sister-in-law is accompanying the guest. I will go to help later.”

“Okay.” Lu Jueyu moved closer to him.

Lu Jueyu was used to their intimacy and found that the rules of this era were so annoying that she could not hug her husband as she wanted. She misses him.
