Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 46
He Misses Her
But with Wang Muxiao’s reminder, everyone looked at her, only to see that she was only a step behind him. It looks like she’s the bride-to-be instead of Lu Jueyu who was busy in the kitchen. In an instant, everyone’s eyes on her changed, especially Father Li, Li Chenze, Father Lu, Lu Han, Lu Cheng, and Han Yuheng.
On the day of their arrival at their production team, Mother Lu said that she was not allowed to get close to her son. But today, she actually sat so close to her son-in-law. Han Yuheng felt that his face was thrown to the ground, as he kept guaranteeing Mother Lu that the educated youth would not be so shameless.
“Miss Xiao, you should leave for now. After all, this is a private matter, and you are an outsider.” He said coldly, with a hint of warning.
Hearing what they said, Xiao Yiqing’s face suddenly turned pale, and then turned red again. Her eyes turned red and misty, as if she had been bullied. She stood up, lowered her head, bit her lips and said, “I don’t mean anything else. I just want to participate in this happy moment.”
Before she could continue talking, Wang Muxiao exclaimed, “Oh, if you want to share happiness, just say so. There’s no need to cry over such a trivial matter.”
Lu Cheng looked at his wife with questioning eyes. He didn’t know what crazy thing his wife would do next, so he kept pulling at the hem of her clothes to stop her. But instead of stopping, his hand was slapped away by his wife.
Wang Muxiao took a cup and poured milk tea into it. After that, she grabbed a handful of melon seeds and walked towards Xiao Yiqing. She handed her the milk tea and the melon seeds.
Xiao Yiqing didn’t know what she wanted, so she could only accept the cup and melon seeds. Afterward, Wang Muxiao said, “Now, I’ve given you the drinks and melon seeds. Miss Xiao, can you leave my home for a while? We have a very important matter to discuss with our in-laws.”
While speaking, Wang Muxiao still didn’t forget to pull Xiao Yiqing up and walked to the door while pushing her. Everyone saw the situation but said nothing. After all, what she did was not wrong.
Pan Meijia watched this scene with her mouth wide open. It was the first time she met someone who could drive people out of the house so smoothly. She was afraid that she would be kicked out too, so she left on her own initiative.
After the two left the house, Wang Muxiao returned to her seat, and said with a smile, “Let the elders and Team Leader Han see a joke. That Miss Xiao is quite shameless, very stubborn, and likes to interfere in other people’s private affairs. Where did we stop just now? Ah yes, about the dowry.”
Hearing her talk about the dowry, they recalled their previous conversation and continued their discussion. Wang Muxiao glanced at Xiao Yiqing who was standing in the front yard with an aggrieved look, and snorted. She had seen so many vixens so she naturally knew how to deal with them. She saw through her trick at a glance.
How dare she covet her family’s son-in-law? Since she ate so much meat bought by Jueyu, she will not let anyone snatch this good man away from her sister-in-law!
Li Chenmo didn’t know who Xiao Yiqing was so he didn’t expect her, as a stranger, to be so shameless. Fortunately, the second sister-in-law handled the matter very well. Otherwise, if his wife misunderstands, isn’t he the one who suffers?
Unknowingly, the topic of betrothal gifts and dowry finally concluded after several hours. Seeing that it was already lunchtime, Father Lu said, “It’s almost lunchtime, and the family is already preparing meals. Everyone, please stay and have a meal before leaving.”
Since it is custom, no one refused the meal and chatted while waiting for the meal to be served. When Mother Lu, Chen Anwen, and Wang Muxiao entered the kitchen, Lu Jueyu had just finished the last dish.
“Jueyu, is everything ready? It’s time for lunch.” Mother Lu asked.
“Yes, we can eat now. I’ll wash my face first and change my clothes.” Lu Jueyu said while wiping the sweat from her forehead.
“You just go, we will send the food to the living room.” Chen Anwen said with a smile.
“Alright.”
When she walked into the living room, Li Chenmo saw that her face was flushed and she was sweating profusely. Seeing her busy all morning, he felt a pain in his heart, and couldn’t help but look at her a few more times. He’s only seen her a few times since he’s been here, and he misses her a lot.
Noticing Li Chenmo’s scorching eyes following Lu Jueyu, Li Chenze poked his waist and said in a low voice, “You control yourself a little bit, her parents and brothers are watching.”
Hearing what Li Chenze had said, Li Chenmo turned around and found that everyone was looking at him. He coughed to hide his embarrassment while everyone just smiled.
Not long after, Chen Anwen and Wang Muxiao brought out the food. When the dishes were served on the table, everyone was surprised again. In addition to the fragrant white rice, there are also grilled chicken, steamed fish, braised pork, beef bone soup, stir-fried vegetables, scallion pancakes, mapo tofu, and steamed buns.
When Lu Jueyu changed her clothes and came out, Li Chenmo looked at her and saw that she sat beside him so naturally. He couldn’t help being overjoyed and stretched out his hand to hold her hand under the table. Seeing that everyone’s eyes were focused on the dining table, he moved closer and said in a low voice, “Thanks for your hard work.”
Lu Jueyu shook her head and said, “It’s nothing. I’m used to it.”
He thought she was used to cooking since she was a child, but what she meant was that she had been used to cooking all day during her internship in her previous life. This little thing is nothing to her. She can cook for 10 hours without a break.
