Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 407
Chapter 407: Praise or Worry?
After saying that, Father Lu rubbed Lu Wenfeng’s head and praised, “Good granddaughter, call Grandpa again. ”
Seeing that his sister was pamper by their grandpa, Lu Wenmu also walked up to Father Lu and said, “Grandpa, Xiaomu also wants a hug.”
Father Lu was happy and said with a smile on his face, “Oh, my good grandson. Come, grandpa will give you a hug too.”
Seeing her husband and her grandchildren were having fun, Mother Lu smiled and continued to sew clothes for her unborn grandchild.
Meanwhile, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo were in space, eating snacks to fill their stomachs. They would wait for their foster children to come back and have lunch together. After eating some fruit pie and hot milk, Li Chenmo went to make more bamboo utensils, including bamboo bottles.
While her husband was working in the yard, Lu Jueyu took out the new menu, made some samples, and started making the pre-ordered food for tonight. Some pre-ordered foods take time to cook, such as herbal chicken soup, which costs 30 yuan per bowl.
Although it is expensive, the herbs used to cook it are not cheap at all and could be said to be rare in this era. Beside ginseng, there was wolfberries, chinese wild yam, astragalus root, red dates, codonopsis root, angelica sinensis, soloman’s seal, and honey dates.
Normally, due to the medicinal materials used in making this dish, the soup tastes like Chinese medicine, which makes people frown when they eat it. But since she used the water of her space and a pinch of spiritual grass powder, those unpleasant herbal smells disappeared, replaced by the fresh smell of morning dew.
Because of this, even if she prepares 200 bowls of this soup every day, she can never meet customer demand. What’s more, the amount now has been reduced to 100 bowls a day. Because of its rarity, some customers even offer higher prices to buy it. But Houzi refused the offer and adopted a “first come, first served” system.
After preparing the materials, Lu Jueyu soaked all the medicinal materials, except wolfberry, red dates, and honey dates. Afterward, she cut five black bone chickens, washed them, put them in a pot of boiling water, before adding a few slices of ginger to blanch them. This process helps remove dirt and blood from the bones.
Then she picked out the chicken and transferred it to a large clay pot. She adds water and soaked herbs, brings it to a boil, then simmers it for two hours. While waiting for the chicken soup, she made fried hand pies.
This kind of pie is smaller and can be eaten in a few bites, so it is easier to sell, easy to pack, and easy to transport. In terms of fillings, she prepared peach filling, strawberry filling, three-berry filling, and apple filling. The most popular fillings are peach and apple fillings.
By the time she finished fried the pie, the chicken soup was ready. She added wolfberry, red dates, and honey dates and cooked for another 30 minutes. After the soup was ready, she seasoned it with salt and poured the soup into two jars. She shredded the chicken, added it to the soup, and closed the jar.
Then, she prepared two types of tofu pudding, the sweet one with brown sugar and ginger juice, and the savory one with minced pork, dried lilies, shiitake mushrooms, wood ear mushrooms, and green onions.
As for tofu pudding, Lu Jueyu does not need to make it by hand because she bought a tofu factory that can produce silken tofu, soft tofu, medium soft tofu, firm tofu, extra firm tofu and super firm tofu. That factory can also produce soy milk and tofu pudding.
A bowl of sweet tofu pudding could be sold for 3 yuan, and a bowl of savory tofu pudding costs 8 yuan. Every day, she prepares 100 bowls of each type. Tofu pudding is a good choice for breakfast or snacks for the elderly and children which makes it one of the best sellers.
After she finished packaging the tofu pudding, Li Chenmo also finished his work. While she has the factory to produce many products from bamboo, her husband still insists on handcrafting some of the daily items. His reason was that the quality of the products in her space was too good to be handmade.
Therefore, she could only let him do it manually. Fortunately, there are many tools that make it easier for her husband to create these items. Otherwise, she would feel heartbroken when she looked at her husband’s injured hands.
After washing his hands, Li Chenmo walked to his wife, leaned over and kissed her. Seeing that she had prepared lunch, he said, “Wife, go and have a rest. Don’t tire yourself.”
“I’m almost done. Husband, you go wash up first.” Lu Jueyu said while stirring the soup.
“All right.”
After kissing her again, Li Chenmo went to the bedroom to take a shower. When she was alone, Lu Jueyu checked her task list and smiled.
Her husband loves to kiss and hug her, which makes it easier for her to complete her daily tasks. Add in small tasks like cooking for her husband or massaging him, and she can earn millions of gold coins everyday.
As for the main task, she glanced at the words ‘consummated marriage’ and sighed. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, but her husband never crossed the line, even though his body clearly reacted to her touches every time they kissed or hugged.
She didn’t know whether to praise him for his strong self-control or worry about his health. In the previous life, her colleagues would talk about the sexual affairs between themselves and their partners, and heard that it would be bad for a man’s health if he kept holding it in.
Although she wasn’t sure if the information was correct, she couldn’t be careless with her husband’s health. What if it’s really bad for a man’s health? Will it not only be her husband who will suffer in the future, but also herself?
