Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 430

Chapter 430: Gratitude
Ding Ran frowned when he heard that he had been unconscious for almost a day. He hasn’t been back since last night and his parents must be worried sick.

After thinking for a while, I said, “Brother Li, I feel much better now. So, I will take my leave first.”

Before he even got out of bed, Li Chenmo held his shoulders and said, “Eat something first, and then I’ll send you back.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a growling sound from Ding Ran’s stomach. Touching his hungry belly, he nodded.

Li Chenmo handed him the porridge and said, “If it’s not enough, there is more in the kitchen.”

Looking at the thick porridge, Ding Ran felt grateful. It had been many years since he last had white porridge. Not to mention thick and fragrant, it even has salted duck eggs. Unknowingly, he finished the bowl of porridge in less than five minutes.

Seeing that he was still hungry, Lu Jueyu walked outside, took out the porridge from the space, and brought it to the room. She put it on the bedside and said, “We made a lot, so eat more.”

Ding Ran swallowed and said, “Thank you, sister-in-law.”

Although he was embarrassed, he couldn’t help but scoop out another bowl of porridge from the pot. Twenty minutes later, he finally put down the spoon and burped.

He wiped his lips with the back of his hand, glanced at Li Chenmo, and said embarrassedly, “Brother Li, I’m sorry. I finished the porridge.”

Li Chenmo glanced at the clean pot and said with a smile, “It doesn’t matter. We had already eaten.”

Seeing that her sister-in-law was about to arrive, Lu Jueyu quickly took the pots and pans to the backyard to wash, leaving Ding Ran and Li Chenmo in the room.

In the room, Ding Ran said, “Brother Li, I want to go back to my home. I haven’t come back since yesterday, and my parents must be very worried about me.”

“Where do you live? I’ll take you back.” Li Chenmo said.

Hearing his words, Ding Ran was surprised by his kindness. They were strangers, but he was willing to save his life, give him food, and now wanted to send him back. He was embarrassed to disturb Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu, and wanted to refuse his proposal.

But before he could speak, Li Chenmo said, “With your current condition, you can’t walk very far. I’d better take you back on a bicycle to prevent your injuries from getting worse.”

Since he has disturbed the other party for a day, it indeed made no difference if Li Chenmo sent him back. After weighing the pros and cons, Ding Ran finally nodded and said, “Then, I will trouble you, Brother Li.”

Li Chenmo nodded and said, “You should change your clothes first.”

After saying that, he left the room for a while and came back with a clean set of clothes. Although they were Li Chenmo’s old clothes, they were still clean and didn’t have too many patches. Ding Ran knows that it is not easy for villagers to buy new clothes, and they cherish old clothes.

So, after he put on the clothes, he said, “Brother Li, I will return the clothes to you after I wash them.”

Li Chenmo did not refuse and nodded. Although there are many new clothes in his wife’s space, he still needs to wear these old clothes outside the new clothes to avoid arousing suspicion from others.

Due to the height difference, Ding Ran had to fold his pants and sleeves several times before they fit properly.

Lu Jueyu saw her husband bringing Ding Ran out and asked, “Husband, will you send Brother Ding back?”

“Mhmm. I will come back as soon as I send him home. Remember to lock the door after I leave.” Li Chenmo said and patted her head.

“Alright.”

Before they left, Lu Jueyu had already packed some vegetables, fruits, and a small bottle of tonic wine in the kitchen. So, she handed the package to Ding Ran and said, “Brother Ding, I packed a bottle of tonic wine for you. Just take one spoonful a day to help nourish your body.”

Ding Ran was flattered, waved his hand and said, “Sister-in-law, it’s too expensive. I’ve been bothering you and Brother Li for a long time, how can I accept it?”

Lu Jueyu thrust the package into his hand and said, “You were injured when you sold my stuff, and it can be considered a work-related injury. This is just a small gesture from my husband and I to thank you for helping us sell our items. Don’t refuse.”

Now that she had expressed it this way, it would be rude of him to refuse. So, Ding Ran took the package and said, “Thank you, sister-in-law.”

Apart from thanking them, Ding Ran didn’t know what to say to express his gratitude. All he could do was recover as quickly as possible and work harder to help them sell their stuff.

Li Chenmo looked at the moon and said, “It’s getting late, we should go.”

“Husband, be careful on the road.”

Li Chenmo leaned over and kissed her, saying, “Mhmm, remember to lock the door.”

Seeing them showing affection in public, Ding Ran was stunned and blushed. After they left, Lu Jueyu locked the door and went out to check on the children. Seeing that they were already asleep, she covered their bellies with a thin quilt, then took out a basin of ice cubes from her own space and placed it in the corner of their room to reduce the heat.

After that, she went to the room in the backyard to tidy up. Looking at the blood-stained bedding, she was thankful that there was a washing machine in her space. If she has to wash it by hand, it may not only leave stains, but her hands will become sore and rough.

Lu Jueyu kept everything in her space, cleaned the room, and then sprayed disinfectant to remove the smell of blood and medicine in the air.
