Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 72

Call Me Husband
Seeing Lu Jueyu coming with a plate of pancakes and a basket of steamed buns, Li Chenmo went to the kitchen to get chicken soup and tableware. After the two sat down, Lu Jueyu served him a bowl of soup and asked, “Brother Chenmo, do you have any plans for the New Year?”

Li Chenmo drank the soup and said, “On the new year’s eve, we will have New Year’s dinner with my father and brothers, and then we will visit your parents on the first day.”

“Shouldn’t we accompany your father on the first day and visit my parents on the second day?” Lu Jueyu asked in surprise.

“My father likes to spend the first day with my mother, so we don’t need to disturb him.” Li Chenmo said calmly.

Hearing this, Lu Jueyu didn’t ask any more questions, and said, “Then we will do as you say.”

He looked at her for a while and said, “Wife, we’re already married. Can’t you change the way you call me and call me husband instead?”

Hearing his sudden request, Lu Jueyu was caught off guard and choked on her food.

“Cough, cough, cough.” She coughed for a while before calming down. When she raised her eyes, she saw Li Chenmo looking at her dejectedly.

Before she could speak, he heard him say in a low voice, “If you are unwilling, then let’s just forget it.”

Lu Jueyu looked at him eating in silence enveloped in a gloomy feeling, and felt a little guilty. Seeing his depressed state, she felt uncomfortable in her heart. After a while, she whispered softly, “Husband.”

The moment Lu Jueyu called out, the gloom on Li Chenmo’s body instantly disappeared, and his eyes lit up. He looked at her excitedly and said with a smile, “Wife.”

Lu Jueyu was a little embarrassed so she lowered her head and concentrated on eating, But Li Chenmo kept disturbing her while eating, as if he had been injected with chicken blood, full of energy.

“Wife, have some soup.”

“En.”

“Wife, have some pancakes.”

“En.”

“Wife, do you want more steam buns?”

“No need.”

“Wife, let me do the dishes.”

Lu Jueyu finally couldn’t hold her embarrassment anymore and said, “Husband, you should rest. There are not many dishes to wash, so I can do it by myself.”

Finally hearing her calling him husband again, Li Chenmo said with satisfaction, “Alright then. I will listen to my wife. Don’t be too tired, just tell me if there is anything I can do.”

“Alright.” Lu Jueyu said as she brought out the tableware and plates.

Lu Jueyu finally got some peace and breathed a sigh of relief. She never expected that the indifferent and aloof male protagonist would become a chatterbox after marriage. She wondered why his personality was becoming more and more different from the original character design. Is it because of her influence, or because this world is not the world of novels?

She prefers the second option to the first option. After all, if it wasn’t the novel world, they wouldn’t be bound by the plot, and she would be able to spend the rest of her life with Li Chenmo and doing whatever she wants. What’s more, facing Xiao Yiqing, she didn’t have to worry about the halo of the heroine at all. How wonderful!

After tidying up the kitchen, Lu Jueyu began to prepare the things she would bring back tomorrow. On the third day after marriage, she and Li Chenmo will go back to her natal home to visit.

Recalling what happened to the second sister-in-law yesterday, she took out 30 eggs, five catties of pork, two catties of brown sugar, 50 grams of wild ginseng, one catty of wolfberry, one catty of red dates, and a catty of ginger. Beside that, she also prepared five catties of white flour, two jars of meat sauce, three packs of milk powder, two packs of milk candies, one can of Longjing tea, a large bottle of sesame oil, and two packs of cigarettes.

She put everything into a big bamboo basket and covered it with a ten-meter cotton cloth. Looking at the item in front of her, she nodded. As a gift, these should suffice.

In addition to the things prepared for the Lu family, she also took out 20 eggs, three catties of pork, one catty of sausages, two catties of white rice, two catties of white noodles, one can of Longjing tea, two jars of meat sauce, and a bottle of sesame oil. She also gave Father Li two bottles of Baijiu and a pack of cigarettes.

Then, she found a smaller bamboo basket and took out ten eggs, two catties of pork, two catties of sausages, two jars of meat sauce, two packs of milk powder, two packs of milk candies, one catty of brown sugar, and half a catty of melon seed. She also added a catty of goji berries, a bottle of sesame oil, and a pack of cigarettes for Li Chenze and his family.

Since the Li family has separated, she needs to prepare gifts separately. As for Li Chenxuan’s family, although Lu Jueyu didn’t like Jiao Siyu, she still prepared the same things as the one she prepared for Li Chenze’s family.

When she was busy in the kitchen, Li Chenmo kept looking at the door while reading. After waiting for a long time, Lu Jueyu still didn’t return to the room. He finally couldn’t hold back and went to find his wife.

When he entered the kitchen, he saw Lu Jueyu rummaging the bamboo basket. There are two large bamboo baskets and two smaller bamboo baskets. He walked towards her and finally saw what was in the bamboo basket.

He raised his eyebrows and asked, “Wife, what are you doing?”

Lu Jueyu was taken aback by his sudden appearance, turned her head, and asked, “Can you make a sound when you walk? You almost scared me to death.”

Li Chenmo didn’t expect her to react so strongly, and thought she was really startled, “I’m sorry, wife. I will make a sound next time.”
