Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 310
Chapter 310: Reunion Meal
When everyone heard the granduncle’s words, those with malicious intentions pricked up their ears, wanting to know her secret recipe.
Li Chenmo knew what they were thinking and said, “Uncle, my wife is just lucky. When she went to collect firewood at the foot of the mountain, she found a small wild ginseng. After she collects dew every morning, she uses ginseng, some medicinal herbs, Baijiu, and dew to brew this tonic wine. Therefore, the taste of this tonic wine is as clear as spring water.”
Everyone was surprised to hear his words. Not to mention how valuable wild ginseng is, just the fact that she worked so hard to collect so much dew is enough to show how filial she is.
While everyone was admiring her filial piety, Lu Jueyu looked at her shameless husband in disbelief. How could he say all this nonsense without blushing?
Sensing his wife’s gaze, Li Chenmo came closer and asked with a smile, “Wife, why are you looking at me like this? I know I’m very good-looking but we are in a public place after all. If you want to kiss me, we can do it when we return to our home.”
Lu Jueyu blushed with embarrassment at his shameless words and whispered, “Husband, how can you tell such a lie? You know clearly that I did not collect any dew. What if your father knows your lies?”
Li Chenmo glanced at his father and said with a smile, “Father already knows. Only my eldest brother and those relatives believe what I say.”
Lu Jueyu listened to his words and looked at Father Li, who gave them a meaningful look. She felt embarrassed and quickly lowered her head.
At this time, instead of being angry because of his third son’s lies, Father Li was satisfied with the way he handled the matter. After all, he knew full well that some of his cousins were eyeing his third daughter-in-law’s secret recipe.
Although his third son told them the recipe, without any luck, the wine would be impossible to brew because they would need to find wild ginseng. What’s more, it’s difficult for them to collect so much dew.
Father Li knew that although part of what his third son said was a lie, he believed that the third daughter-in-law did use precious medicinal materials and wild ginseng to brew the tonic wine. As for the dew, maybe she used mountain spring water.
Since Li Chenmo had already mentioned the ingredients for the tonic wine, the guests sipped the tonic wine and tasted it slowly. As for the elders, because the wine cup was too small, they drank it all in one go. At this moment, they watched the younger generation slowly tasting the wine, with a trace of regret in their hearts.
Seeing their expressions, Father Li looked at Li Chenmo and asked, “Third son, do you still have the tonic wine?”
Li Chenmo picked up the jar, shook it, and said, “Father, there is still some left. Do you want more?”
Father Li nodded and said, “Give the elders another cup.”
Li Chenmo nodded and went to pour another cup of tonic wine for the elders. Seeing this, the elders were all smiling. Since the jar was small, everyone only received one cup to have a taste. Even if it was just a small cup, everyone was satisfied because they thought it was brewed with dew that was difficult to collect. As for the children, they were given warm milk.
As for Zhang Dongmei and Pan Meijia, after listening to Li Chenmo’s words, they decided to be more filial to Father Li. Lu Jueyu was very good at cooking and making wine, so she would take care of this part. As for other things that require strength, they can help Father Li do it as their filial piety.
Two hours later the meal was over and everyone left as they rubbed their stomachs, feeling satisfied with the food and drinks. While Father Li was seeing off the guests, Lu Jueyu went to the kitchen, used the bamboo basket as a cover, and took out a few bags of fried nuts from her own space. She poured all the roasted nuts into the jar, mixed them well, and wrapped them in oiled paper into several small packages.
After she finished wrapping, she took the roasted mixed nuts to the front yard and found her husband. Seeing her husband clearing the tables and chairs with Li Chenze and Li Lingyun, she walked up to him and said, “Husband, when you and your brothers return the tables and chairs, give this to the neighbors to thank them.”
Li Chenmo nodded, took the roasted nuts, and said, “Mhmm. We will go back after I return the table and chairs.”
She nodded with a smile, “Alright.”
While the Li brothers were busy returning tables and chairs, Lu Jueyu went to the backyard to help Zhang Dongmei and Pan Meijia wash the dishes.
Not long after returning from Father Li’s house, Li Chenze, Zhang Dongmei, and Li Lingyun went to Li Chenmo’s house to discuss the pig-raising plan. Besides them, Lu Han and Lu Cheng were also present.
Lu Han sat around the table in the living room and said, “Jueyu, I have discussed this matter with our parents and your sister-in-law. We will participate in your plan. Your sister-in-law will help you prepare pig feed.”
Zhang Dongmei nodded and said, “I will help you to gather pigweeds too. Preparing feed for 30 pigs is tiring and you can’t handle it alone. ”
Lu Jueyu thought for a while and said, “Brother, sister-in-law, I will share the recipe and we can prepare it separately. We will cook as much as we can and then put it on the feeder. In this way, we will have more flexible time. There is no need to gather together to prepare pig feed.”
“This plan is good.” Lu Cheng nodded.
“I will also share what feed piglets and adult pigs need. And what to pay attention to when raising them.” Lu Jueyu added.
Hearing her words, Zhang Dongmei asked in surprise, “Third sister-in-law, don’t we just need to cook the food and feed it to the pigs?”
