Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 578

Chapter 578: Exposed ( 1 )
“Brother Yun, I made fifteen bowls. Do you want to bring more for your friends?” Pan Meijia asked.

Li Lingyun thought for a while and said, “Mhmm. I may need ten bowls.”

“Alright.”

After the cake cooled, Pan Mejia toasted some banana leaves on the remaining embers on the stove to soften them. She then cleans the leaves and uses it to wrap the steamed cakes. Since the cake was as big as an adult man’s fist, she could only wrap two steamed cakes together using a banana leaf and tie them with hay.

After wrapping the cakes, she put them in a bamboo basket. Since her boyfriend wants to give ten bowls to his friends, she will only keep one bowl for herself and give the rest to him. In this way, he wouldn’t have to go hungry. After that, she cleaned up the kitchen before going to the living room.

When he finished changing his clothes, Li Lingyun walked out of the bedroom. Today, in addition to going to his friends to collect the travel permits Houzi asked for, he also wanted to buy a bicycle. Although he had bought one before, it was used by his subordinates.

As for this bicycle, it will be given to his girlfriend as a bride price. In addition to a bicycle, he also prepared a radio, a sewing machine, a thermos flask, and a watch. He plans to buy a set of clothes and a pair of leather shoes for his future parents-in-law. Since he doesn’t know the size, he can only take his girlfriend to the town and buy it later.

When Li Lingyun saw his girlfriend waiting for him in the living room, he walked to her and said, “Jia Er, I will take you back first.”

Pan Meijia handed him the bamboo basket and said, “Brother Yun, you don’t have to worry about me. I can go back by myself. I have also prepared some water for you here. Go quickly and come back quickly.”

Li Lingyun took the bamboo basket, handed her a set of keys, and said, “These keys are for you. You can come anytime you want.”

Pan Meijia looked at the key in her hand, smiled and said. “Brother Yun, I will lock the door before I leave.”

“Mhmm, I will be back as soon as possible.” Li Lingyun kissed her forehead before leaving.

When she was alone, Pan Meijia cleaned the house and washed Li Lingyun’s clothes. After she did everything, she locked the door, and returned to Lu’s house.

At the same time, Liu Hua was sewing a pair of red ribbon flowers for herself and Xiao Li. These red ribbon flowers will be pinned to their clothes on their wedding day. The thought of marrying him in a few days increased her mood.

Yesterday, after the Huang family broke off their engagement, her sister-in-law was so angry that she almost fainted. Every time she thought of her sister-in-law, Liu Hua couldn’t help but frown. Her sister-in-law treats her brother and nephew very well, but she treats her niece like a servant.

Over the years, her sister-in-law has not dared to hit her daughter and only nags her because Liu Hua protects her. But now, she is getting married and leaving home. She didn’t know if her niece could continue to attend the school without her by her side.

Thinking of this, Liu Hua let out a long sigh. It seemed like she needed to talk to her brother. As soon as she made up her mind, she saw her brother coming back with their parents and sister-in-law.

After putting away the unfinished red ribbon flowers, she left the room and went to the kitchen. Unlike her family members who need to work in the fields, Liu Hua’s task is to do housework and cooking.

When she walked to the kitchen, she glanced at the sky. It was almost noon, and the family had only eaten a cold cornmeal pancake for breakfast, so they must be hungry now. Just when she was thinking about making meat buns for lunch to nourish her parents’ bodies, she heard her sister-in-law’s words with a hint of anger.

“Mother, it’s not that I look down on Xiao Li. Not to mention that he has no money or ability, just based on his family conditions, he is not worthy of Ah Hua. As her sister-in-law, how can I stand by and watch when I know that she is going to jump into the fire pit?”

Mother Liu sighed and said, “Eldest daughter-in-law, I know you are worried about Ah Hua’s marriage, but you had better stop talking about it. No matter how bad you think Xiao Li is, it’s Ah Hua who marries him. Since Ah Hua chose him, then as her sister-in-law, you should support her instead of speaking ill of her fiancé.”

“Mother, Ah Hua has no experience and doesn’t know what is best for herself. As her elders, we should make decisions for her. Marriage is not a child’s play ah!” Shi Qiwan said frustratedly.

Before Mother Liu could speak, she added, “Look at how good Huang Tingyun’s job is. His monthly salary is 50 yuan, and he receives food and coupons every month. Not only that, he is also literate, polite, gentle and thoughtful. What’s wrong with marrying him?”

After listening to her words, Mother Liu thought for a while and said, “But he already has a girl he likes. Even if Ah Hua marries him, she will not be happy.”

Seeing that her mother-in-law was moved by her words, Shi Qiwan continued to persuade her, “Mother, children will have to listen to their parents and matchmaker’s words when they get married. As long as the Huang family puts pressure on him, he will marry Ah Hua. As for feelings, they can be cultivated slowly. After all, they still have a long time together.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Hua came over and said, “Unfortunately, the Huang family has broken off the engagement. So, even if my sister-in-law wants to force me to marry Huang Tingyun, you have no chance.”
