Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 309

Chapter 309: Dog Food
Xiao Yiguan looked at her and said, “Qingqing, this marriage was actually proposed by him. When he came to propose to you, our grandfather didn’t agree at first because he came from a peasant family. I don’t know what he did or said, but after several visits, our grandfather finally agreed.”

Hearing his words, Xiao Yiqing was stunned, and finally asked, “Brother, what’s his name?”

Xiao Yiguan touched his nose and said, “His name is Mu Zigu, he is actually a second lieutenant. I am under his command.”

Xiao Yiqing was stunned when she heard this name. After four years, she had almost forgotten this name. When she was 16, she rescued a man who was being hunted by a group of men.

Before leaving, he told her that one day he would come to her and tell her not to forget him. He also told her his name was Mu Zigu. She never took his words seriously because they might never see each other again.

Recalling that brief encounter, she couldn’t help but think, ‘Is this a coincidence or is it really him?’

Seeing his sister in a daze, Xiao Yiguan patted her hand and said, “Okay, you don’t have to worry too much about this. Since grandpa agreed, his conditions must not be bad. Although he comes from a peasant family, his position is not low in the military and his monthly salary is high. If you follow him, you don’t have to worry about your future.”

Xiao Yiqing nodded and said with a smile, “Brother, I understand.”

Although he was once married, she also lost her virginity. Since he knew her situation and was willing to accept her, she had nothing to complain about and was willing to marry him.

At the same time, in Xie village, Lu Jueyu, Pan Meijia, and Zhang Dongmei were busy cooking in the kitchen, while the Li brothers were busy borrowing tables and chairs from their neighbors. Since everyone knew that today’s meal was the Li family’s reunion meal, the neighbors lent the tables and chairs to them after a brief chat.

After setting up the tables and chairs, Li Chenmo came to the kitchen and saw that his wife was sweating profusely because of the hot temperature. Feeling sorry for his wife, he went to get a towel, wet it, and then returned to the kitchen.

When Lu Jueyu saw him coming, she thought the elders were already here and asked, “Husband, does father want us to serve food now?”

Li Chenmo shook his head and said, “The elders haven’t arrived yet, you can take your time.”

Before she could ask her husband why he came to the kitchen, Li Chenmo wiped her sweat with a wet towel, and she let out a sigh when she felt a cool sensation on her forehead.

While wiping her sweat, he asked, “Is there anything I can help you with?”

Knowing that her husband would insist on helping even if she refused, she smiled and said, “En. Husband, help me wash the vegetables.”

Li Chenmo nodded, carried a basket of vegetables and went to the backyard to wash it. When he got to the backyard, he saw his second brother helping Pan Meijia wash pots and dishes. Seeing his second brother teasing the girl shamelessly, he rolled his eyes and reminded them, “Second brother, you have to restrain yourself. This is a public place.”

After hearing what he said, Li Lingyun snorted and said proudly, “If you are jealous, just go and tease your wife. Don’t disturb my wife and me.”

Hearing his shameless words, Pan Meijia blushed immediately and patted his arm, “Brother Yun, why are you talking nonsense in front of brother-in-law?”

When Li Lingyun heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “Jia Er, you have already called my third brother as brother-in-law. So, there is no problem with what I said.”

This was the first time he saw someone show affection in front of him so blatantly in his several lifetimes. Squatting not far from them, Li Chenmo finally understood why Li Chenze always showed an uncomfortable and stuffed expression every time he teased his wife. This kind of dog food is indeed too much for others to eat.

Two hours later, everyone in the Li family arrived and the meals were ready. What is different from usual is that this time Father Li sat with his sons, daughters-in-law, and grandsons. The rest of the Li family sat at another table. Because Li Chenmo’s Grandfather has many brothers and sisters, the Li family is one of the families with the largest number of descendants.

For today’s reunion meal, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo harvested the vegetables from their garden and sent it over, while Li Chenze sent over the pickled vegetables made by Zhang Dongmei. As for the grains and meat, Li Lingyun prepared them.

Before dinner started, Li Chenmo took out a small jar of tonic wine and gave the elders a drink. Since Lu Jueyu put the spiritual grass powder last time, the color of the tonic wine has changed several times. From reddish brown, it turned into golden yellow, and now the tonic wine has become as clear as spring water. Even the taste has changed.

At this moment, the tonic wine tastes like fresh dew on the mountain. It has a minty freshness with a hint of sweetness. But after drinking it, they felt a warm feeling in their stomachs and their body relaxed. After a moment, they would feel refreshed as all the fatigue disappeared.

After the granduncle finished the small cup, he said in surprise, “Third nephews, where did you get this wine?”

Father Li smiled and said, “Uncle, this is the tonic wine brewed by my third daughter-in-law.”

After hearing what he said, the uncle was surprised and said, “Third grandnephew-in-law, you are very skilled. I thought it was dew rather than tonic wine. What did you put in it?”
