Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 281
Chapter 281: Discussion
Li Chenmo is an excellent man, and many vixens are eyeing him. It would be bad if Lu Jueyu quarreled with her husband because of the Lu family. It would only benefit those vixens.
Sensing Wang Muxiao’s worry, Lu Jueyu chuckled and said, “Second sister-in-law, I will tell my husband about this. Don’t worry, he won’t be angry with me.”
Lu Jueyu told the truth. Not to mention that she and her husband already earn a lot of money from the black market, even if she spends all the family’s money, her husband will only let her do whatever she wants.
After weighing the pros and cons, Wang Muxiao finally nodded and said, “Since your husband gave you the money, you should make it clear to him first before doing anything. Jueyu, thank you.”
“Second sister-in-law, we are a family. This is what I should do.”
Wang Muxiao stayed for nearly an hour before returning to the Lu family’s house with the children. Before leaving, Lu Jueyu harvested some lettuce and brought it back to them. She also gave them some eggs, wild honey and a jar of tonic wine.
After she got married, the Lu family’s old hen slowly returned to normal. They lay only one egg, or sometimes no eggs at all. While eggs are still enough for them for daily consumption, there are no extra that could be sold to the state-run supplies store anymore.
Because there were too many things, it was impossible for Wang Muxiao to bring them back while taking care of the children. So, Lu Jueyu asked her to take her daughter back with her and she will send the boys back. She put the eggs, wild honey, tonic wine, and lettuce on the bicycle basket and locked the door.
She used a long piece of cloth as a sling and carried Lu Wenmu on her chest. As for Lu Wenyi, she made him sit in the back seat and tied him to her body with another long piece of cloth. After confirming that he was safe and would not fall, Lu Jueyu rode her bicycle to Lu’s house.
The children rode bicycles for the first time and couldn’t help laughing happily when they felt the breeze. Lu Wenmu kept laughing all the way because he was at the front and could see everything clearly. When they rode past Wang Muxiao, the children shouted, “Second Aunt!”
Wang Muxiao watched them ride away and laugh. She found her daughter looking at their backs longingly and said, “When Xiaofeng is as old as your brothers, Mother will ask your little aunt to take you for a ride, okay?”
Lu Wenfeng looked at her mother, nodded and said with a big smile, “Okay!”
When Lu Jueyu arrived at the Lu family’s house, she first untied Lu Wenyi and helped him down, and then untied the sling from her body. After taking the children into their bedroom, she put the things in the kitchen.
As soon as she came out, Wang Muxiao entered the front yard. Wang Muxiao saw her coming out of the backyard and said, “Thank you, Jueyu.”
Lu Jueyu nodded and said, “Second sister-in-law, I’m going back first.”
“Alright.”
As the sun set, the siren blared from the loudspeaker, and everyone finally stopped working and went home. When Li Chenmo was about to arrive home, he saw Ling Yun waiting for him on the roadside.
When he got to his side, Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows and said, “Brother Ling, it’s really rare for you to come back so early.”
Ling Yun was too lazy to respond to his teasing and asked, “Chenmo, have you and your wife talked about that matter?”
Hearing his words, Li Chenmo nodded and said, “Yes, but we have better suggestions.”
Ling Yun pushed the door open and walked in, saying, “Let’s talk after we go in.”
This was the first time Li Chenmo went to Ling Yun’s house. As soon as he entered the house, he saw the neat vegetable garden in the yard and the clean house. Not long after Ling Yun moved into this house, the house was almost completed. Only part of the fence still needs repair.
“Take a seat. I only have water here.” Ling Yun poured him a cup of water and sat down opposite him.
Li Chenmo took a sip of water and frowned. After getting used to drinking fresh water, he found it difficult to accept the taste of brackish water. He put down the cup and said, “Brother Ling, you should use the mountain spring fresh water instead of drinking well water. I can help you build a bamboo waterway.”
Ling Yun remembered that when he went to check the traps, he saw some water channels built using bamboo in the mountains and agreed, “Okay. If you and your wife have any suggestions, please tell me.”
“Brother Ling, my wife and I have discussed the matter of pig feed. We think it’s better for you to cooperate with us.” Li Chenmo said.
“What do you mean by cooperating with you?” Ling Yun asked curiously.
Li Chenmo smiled and said, “Brother Ling, if you raise pigs by yourself, you need to build a pigpen and you can only raise two to three pigs by yourself. Not to mention the time required to clean the pigpen and prepare pig feed, the cost of building a pigpen is also not low. So, we think it will be more efficient if you raise pigs with me. My pig pen can accommodate about 50 pigs without a problem.”
“With the pig feed prepared by my wife, we only need to clean the pigpen and feed the pigs every day, which saves a lot of time. In this way, even if we raise ten pigs, it will not be a problem. As for the work points, we can divide it in half.” He added
Ling Yun was silent, thinking about his suggestion. His idea was feasible and enticing. However, this matter needs to be reported to the brigade’s leaders, and the chance of getting approval is not high.
