Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 301

Chapter 301: Leaving ( 1 )
After they greeted Father Li, Li Jingqian and Li Jingxu looked at Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu and greeted them.

Zhang Dongmei put the bamboo basket on the bedside table and said, “Father, I brought some porridge and chicken soup for you. Eat it while it’s hot.”

“Third brother, third sister-in-law, I just brought you some pancakes and pickles. I hope you don’t mind,” she added.

Lu Jueyu walked over, helped her take out the food, and said, “Sister-in-law, you are too polite. Thank you.”

When Father Li and others were eating, Li Chenze’s family chatted with them. Not long after breakfast, the door was pushed open. The doctor and the nurses who were doing rounds in the morning came over and smiled when they saw this harmonious family. Since most villagers are narrow-minded and stingy, it is rare to see harmonious families.

Seeing the doctor coming, they stood up and made way for him. After the nurse checked Father Li’s blood pressure, the doctor did some simple checks on him. When he was done, he said with a smile, “After the IV drip, the patient can be discharged. Remember to take medicine on time every day and reduce your workload. You can’t do heavy work, but you still have to do some light exercise.”

When Father Li heard what the doctor said, he frowned and said, “Doctor, if I can’t do heavy work, will I no longer be able to work in the fields?”

The doctor understood Father Li’s concerns and said, “I’m sorry, but your heart condition cannot support heavy field work.”

Father Li was silent for a moment and said, “I understand, thank you, doctor.”

After the doctor and nurse left, Li Chenze said, “Father, my wife and I want to move in and stay with you. We won’t be at ease with you living alone.”

Father Li looked at them with surprise and asked, “What about your house?”

“Father, we have already thought about it. We will lend the house to the production team in exchange for lower taxes.” Li Chenze said.

After a moment of silence, Father Li said, “You heard what the doctor said. I can no longer work in the fields. If I live with your family, I will become a burden to you.”

Hearing this, Li Chenmo said, “Father, you don’t have to worry. My brother and I have already discussed this issue. It is our responsibility to take care of you in your old age. So, we will support you.”

Father Li glanced at Zhang Dongmei and Lu Jueyu and asked, “Did both of you know about this?”

Zhang Dongmei nodded and said, “Father, Chenze has already told me about this, and I agree with him. Chenze is your eldest son, and we should have lived with you in the first place.”

Lu Jueyu also nodded and added, “Father, my husband and I will earn a lot of work points by raising pigs. The food is enough for us to share. You won’t be a burden for us.”

After considering the pros and cons, Father Li nodded, looked at his sons and daughters-in-law, and said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

Instead of forcing himself to work and making his family worried about his health, Father Li chose to enjoy his retirement life.

Hearing Father Li’s words, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Since Li Chenze’s family was moving to live with Father Li, they needed to inform the team leader about the educated youth who lived with Father Li.

After breakfast, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu went to pay the hospital bills, while Zhang Dongmei helped Father Li pack his things and waited for the IV drip to finish.

In front of the counter, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo were waiting, and they saw Han Yuluo walking towards them while he was talking to a little girl. The moment he raised his head, their eyes met. He looked at her in surprise and walked in her direction.

When he stood next to her, he asked, “Jueyu, why are you here? Are you feeling unwell?”

Listening to the worry in his voice, Lu Jueyu sighed in her heart. Although this man is a public air-conditioner type, his feelings for the original soul are sincere. Unfortunately, Lu Jueyu was different from the original soul and has no feelings for him at all. If she hadn’t seen him today, she might have forgotten about him.

Lu Jueyu glanced at the little girl and said, “My father-in-law is in the hospital. Brother Yuluo, what are you doing here?”

Although he still loved her, he knew they had no future together. So he has decided to move on. What’s more, he now has someone who needs him even more. As long as she is happy, that’s enough for him.

So, after hearing her words, he smiled and said, “I brought my niece for a checkup. Xiaohua, greet your aunt.”

Han Lihua hid behind Han Yuluo and glanced at the smiling Lu Jueyu and the glaring Li Chenmo. Looking at Li Chenmo, she thought of Ling Yun whom she missed.

After a while, she said softly, “Hello, aunt and uncle.”

Hearing his niece say the word ‘uncle’, Han Yuluo noticed Li Chenmo standing next to Lu Jueyu. Li Chenmo looked at him coldly, as if facing an enemy. Seeing his depressed mood, Han Yuluo felt happy.

“Brother Li, you are here too.” He said with a smile.

When Li Chenmo saw his smile, he had the urge to beat him. How dare he flirt with his wife in front of him?

Seeing that her husband was in a bad mood, Lu Jueyu pulled his sleeve and said, “Husband, don’t be angry. He is just teasing you.”

Li Chenmo snorted and said, “Han Yuluo, since you are busy, go and deal with your affairs. Don’t delay your niece’s treatment.”

Han Yuluo smiled and said, “We just finished and came to pay. We still have a lot of time. Brother Li, don’t worry about us.”
