Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 780
Chapter 780: New Home
“You and my uncle are so good to me. Taking good care of you, my uncle, and my cousins is what I should do,” Houzi said with a smile.
“Okay, let’s move things in first and let Ah Ying take a rest,” he added.
Because Meng Qiaoping and Su Lanying were weak and unable to move things, they went to the kitchen to boil water for drinking and washing up.
When they entered the kitchen, they saw that there are three stoves in the kitchen, which are connected to the Kang beds in the three bedrooms. There is also a long brick kitchen table near the large window.
A large water tank was placed at the end of the kitchen table, and a pile of firewood in the corner of the kitchen. Several jars under the kitchen table were filled with whole grains, flour, noodles, and rice. Bottles of seasonings and oils were neatly placed on the small cabinet near the stove.
There are also a few pieces of bacon hanging on the beam. Each piece is thick and long, and each piece weighs about two kilograms.
Beside meat, there is a basket of eggs, potatoes, vegetables and fruits on the kitchen table. There was also a basket of steamed buns covered with cloth beside it. Looking out the window, one could see rows of dried corn tied to the beams.
They thought it was prepared by Houzi, but in fact it was prepared by Lu Jueyu after Li Lingyun asked her to help prepare the ingredients two days ago. After the house was cleaned up, she and her husband went there to fill the kitchen and warehouse.
An hour later, Houzi, Su Jian, and Su Lide finally had everything moved into the house. It was getting late so Houzi returned to the town, and Su Lide’s family took a simple bath before they went to bed.
In the room, bedding, pillows, and blankets were neatly folded and placed on the Kang bed. In addition to the cabinet and desk, there is also a small table at the end of the Kang bed.
Seeing this, Meng Qiaoping looked at her husband and said, “Husband, you should tell Ah Jun that we have our own bedding. He must have spent a lot of money to buy these and those foods in the kitchen.”
Hearing his wife’s words, Su Lide asked doubtfully, “Wife, did Ah Jun prepare food for us too?”
“Yes, and it’s not a small amount. Food prices have risen so much, that he may have spent all the money,” Meng Qiaoping said worriedly.
Her husband’s nephew is good at everything but has bad spending habits. He had given them money and food before they came to the village. He also bought the travel permits and now he has prepared so many things for them.
Thinking of this, she added, “Husband, you’d better talk to Ah Jun. He is not young anymore and needs to save money to get married. He shouldn’t spend money on us.”
Su Lide patted his wife’s hand and said, “I will find time to talk to him. Since it is his filial piety, you don’t have to worry too much and can accept it with ease. Ah Jun is not a person who does not know his own abilities. He will never do uncertain things.”
After listening to her husband’s words, Meng Qiaoping finally let go of her worries and heaved a sigh of relief. Due to the fatigue of the long journey, the two fell asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillow.
In this way, they finally settled in their new home.
Early the next morning, Lu Jueyu woke up before dawn as usual. She lit a fire, boiled a pot of water, and went to wash up. When she went to the pig pen to add pig feed, she saw thick smoke coming from the chimney of the empty house next to Li Lingyun’s house.
Although she only heard a little bit about Houzi’s second uncle’s family from Pan Meijia, she could also guess that they must be hard-working people.
Usually, the villagers wake up after dawn, but they are already awake before dawn. Since their houses are near, they can be considered neighbors. She should visit them later and get to know each other.
As usual, before entering the pig pen, she covered her nose with a mask and quickly filled up the warehouse with pig feed before returning home. Then she went to pick eggs. Now there are two hens and she can pick ten eggs every day.
She refilled the chicken feed and water, then went to clean the eggs before storing them in her own space. Then she went to the kitchen and poured hot water into the drinking water tank, and boiled another pot for her husband and children to wash up.
Looking at the almost empty jars, she went to the underground warehouse, took out some ingredients, and refilled the jars. After Xiao Li’s wedding banquet, everyone knew about her underground warehouse. So, she filled only a tenth of the warehouse with the items from her space for daily use.
When the sun rose from the horizon, Li Chenmo and the children woke up one after another. Because Li Lingyun was not here, Li Chenmo and Li Chenze went to the pig pen earlier to clean the pig pen and transport manure.
Due to the high quality of their pig manure, the brigade was asked to send some to the nearest city to make up for the lack of fertilizer. With this order, they no longer have to worry about digging more pits to store manure. Their pigs produce enough manure to meet the fertilizer needs of three brigades.
While her husband was busy in the pig pen, Lu Jueyu was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen. In addition to her family, she also prepared a share for Li’s father and Li Chenze’s family.
Since she needs to make a lot of food in a short amount of time, she gets into her own space while the children water the front yard vegetable garden.
