Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 518

Chapter 518: Tears of Joy
Knowing that Aunt Li didn’t bring money with her, Lu Jueyu handed her fifty yuan and a few food coupons and said, “Aunt Li, you must eat something.”

Seeing the money and coupons in her hand, Aunt Li shook her head and said, “Jueyu, thank you, but you and your husband have helped my family too much. I can’t accept your money.”

Before Lu Jueyu could persuade her, Doctor Xie said, “Lass, I have some money on me.”

Now that Doctor Xie said so, Lu Jueyu stopped insisting and nodded. After leaving the hospital, they went home before noon.

At the same time, in a military camp near the capital, Mu Zigu, who was still on holiday for his wedding, was waiting at the post office counter. He received a telegram from Xiao Yiguan informing him that he had sent a package to them. Since it was sent through the military post office, it only took one day to arrive.

After waiting for five minutes, an officer came out of the back room and placed a package on the counter.

“Second Lieutenant, please sign your name here,” the officer said, handing him a document.

Mu Zigu signed his name, took the package, and said, “Thank you, comrade.”

Leaving the post office counter, he shook the package and heard the faint sound of liquid. He wonders if his brother-in-law is sending wine to them.

Since he just got married and his wife will live with him from now on, they plan to invite friends to have a meal together tomorrow night. This meal can be regarded as their wedding banquet and their housewarming banquet. Thinking that his brother-in-law had sent wine for them, he went to the supply store and bought some roasted nuts as a side dish for the wine later.

At their house, Xiao Yiqing was peeling garlic after she finished washing vegetables. As the pampered daughter of the Xiao family, this was the first time she entered the kitchen and peeled garlic.

Recalling Lu Jueyu’s cooking skills, she sighed. If her body was not controlled by Mu Yiqing, she would really like to make friends with such a talented person. Now let alone making friends with Lu Jueyu, she couldn’t even contact her best friend due to her guilt.

Although those words were not spoken by her, they were spoken by her body. In the eyes of others, those hurtful words and vicious actions were said and done by her. So, what right does she have to contact Pan Meijia and ask for her forgiveness?

Letting out a sigh, she thought, ‘Forget it. Even if Meijia and I can no longer be friends, as long as she is safe and happy, it’s enough.’

As soon as Mu Zigu entered the house, he heard his wife sigh. After closing the door, he put on his indoor slippers and walked up to her. Putting the package and roasted nuts on the table, he asked, “Qingqing, what’s wrong? Are you thinking about your parents?”

After hearing her husband’s words, Xiao Yiqing raised her head and said with a smile, “Brother Zigu, you are back. It’s nothing.”

Mu Zigu didn’t know what was bothering her, but since she didn’t want to tell him, he didn’t force it. They both need time to adjust to their marriage.

“Qingqing, your brother sent you a package. I guess my brother-in-law sent us some wine, so I bought some roasted nuts,” he said.

Xiao Yiqing’s eyes lit up when she heard the package was sent by her brother. She put down the garlic on her hands and took the package. Seeing that it was indeed sent by her brother, she opened it and saw two bottles of golden-colored liquid and a box inside.

Mu Zigu was a little curious, so he came closer and said, “Hm? Is this osmanthus wine?”

Xiao Yiqing didn’t see any brand on the bottle. She shook her head and said, “I don’t know.”

Mu Zigu took the knife, sat down, and began to peel the garlic while saying, “Qingqing, open it and see what it is.”

Xiao Yiqing was a little curious, took the wine, and opened the lid. The moment it was opened, the room was filled with the smell of the forest after the rain. She took a breath and felt that her body was much lighter than usual. Even the occasional cramping in her stomach has lessened slightly.

Mu Zigu was surprised by this unusual fragrance and said, “It smells so good. Is this aromatic oil? Qingqing, let me see.”

Xiao Yiqing handed the bottle over and said, “Brother Zigu, this doesn’t look like oil.”

Mu Zigu took a sniff and smelled a faint aroma of wine, and smiled, “This is indeed wine. It’s just that we don’t know what kind of wine it is.”

Just when the two were confused, Xiao Yiqing saw a piece of paper placed under the box. She took out the folded paper, opened it, and saw Pan Meijia’s neat handwriting, her eyes were red.

She didn’t expect that her best friend would still think of her after what she did and said to her. When she finished reading the letter, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Mu Zigu was stunned when he saw his wife suddenly crying. He walked quickly to her and hugged her. He patted her back, and said, “Shh… Qingqing, it’s alright, I’m here.”

Xiao Yiqing was held in her husband’s arms and cried silently. She didn’t know why she cried, but when she read Pan Meijia’s letter, she was relieved. She knew she still had a chance to repair her relationship with her best friend. So, her tears were tears of joy.

Mu Zigu waited until his wife calmed down and then asked, “Qingqing, why are you crying? What’s wrong?”

Xiao Yiqing leaned on her husband’s broad chest and said, “Brother Zigu, I’m very happy.”

He was a little confused when he heard her words. If she is happy, then why is she crying?
