Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 895

Chapter 895: Distribution Day ( 1 )
When no one was paying attention, Lu Jueyu used the bamboo basket as a cover to take out a basin of ice cubes from her own space. She placed the basin between her and her husband and fanned her husband and son slowly.

Cool breezes from the ice basin reduce the heat and make the weather more bearable. Dong Li and Li Chenmo fell asleep quickly due to this.

While fanning them, Lu Jueyu looked around and found that most of the villagers were sleeping under the trees. She sighed as she looked at the way their clothes were soaked with sweat.

Being a farmer is truly not easy. She was heartbroken when she thought about how people waste food in the future.

Thirty minutes later, the siren sounded and everyone woke up from their nap.

Lu Jueyu quickly took the basin of ice into her own space and patted her husband’s arm, “Husband, wake up.”

Feeling the gentle push, Li Chenmo slowly opened his eyes and blinked. After a while, he finally came to his senses and sat up. He wiped his face with a wet towel and felt refreshed.

After sleeping for thirty minutes, both Li Chenmo and Dong Li felt energetic.

Before going back to work, Li Chenmo helped his wife tie the bamboo basket to the back seat of the bicycle and said, “Wife, ride slower and be careful on the road.”

Lu Jueyu nodded and said, “Mn. Husband, there is some mung bean soup for you and Xiao Li in the bamboo basket. Remember to drink it later to cushion your stomach.”

“Okay,” Li Chenmo nodded.

After his wife returned home, he continued to harvest rice. Although he started later than others, he and Dong Li did things quickly. They had finished their work before the sun set and were resting while others were still working.

While eating mung bean soup, Dong Li saw Su Lide and Su Jian busy at work.

Seeing that their faces were red, he looked at his adoptive father and said, “Father, Grandpa Su and Uncle Su seem to have suffered from heatstroke.”

Hearing this, Li Chenmo looked at them and said, “Xiao Li, bring the aloe vera juice to them.”

After listening to his father’s words, Dong Li nodded, put down the mung bean soup, and took a bamboo bottle. Walking to them, he said, “Grandpa Su, Uncle Su, my Father asked me to bring you water.”

Su Lide heard this and said, “Thank you, Xiao Li. But, we brought our own water.”

“Grandpa Su, my father asked me to give it to you. I will put it here.”

After saying that, Dong Li placed the bamboo bottle on the roadside and walked back to where his father was.

Seeing this, Su Jian said, “Father, we don’t have much water anymore. Let’s just accept it. After all, it’s just some water.”

Hearing this, Su Lide finally sighed and said, “I have always accepted their help, and I feel ashamed.”

“It doesn’t matter. When the harvest is finished, I will find some mushrooms and give it to them,” Su Jian said.

Su Lide nodded and said, “It seems that we can only do that.”

Both of their throats were burning from the thirst and their mouths felt parched. Since Li Chenmo gave them some water, they drank it directly.

They thought it was water, but when they drank it, it was actually sweet juice. Although they didn’t know what kind of juice it was, it was very refreshing and they felt much better after drinking it. The redness on their faces also slowly lessened.

They drank the juice in one gulp and continued working.

As the sun finally set on the western horizon, sirens sounded and villagers stopped working.

Since it was their first time to participate in the summer harvest, Su Lide and his son only received 8 work points. It wasn’t a lot of work throughout the day, but they were happy.

Meng Qiaoping received 10 work points thanks to the gloves lent to her by Dong Li.

After they finished work, everyone looked haggard and exhausted. No one has the energy to gossip about others anymore.

The summer harvest is in full swing. During this time, everyone is tanned and has lost a lot of weight. Despite eating well and being nourished by the spiritual grass powder, Li Chenmo and the children still lost some weight.

More than a month later, they finally harvested the last crop of rice. It took them another week to dry all the grain and store it in the village’s warehouse.

On June 23, before dawn, the villagers got up and gathered in the fields near the granary.

Today is distribution day and they will receive a year’s worth of food. Due to the recent shortage of food, the villagers were in even greater anticipation and waited for nearly an hour.

At the same time, Lu Jueyu was collecting all the pellet feed and pig feed in the pig pen, as well as the small warehouse next to it, into her own space.

The brigade informed them that because there was no meat in the supply store, 20 pigs would be slaughtered today. So, to avoid getting into trouble, she put everything into her own space, leaving only the things her husband used daily.

After she finished storing everything, she went to find her husband in the pig pen and said, “Husband, I have kept everything.”

Li Chenmo nodded to her and said, “Wife, the team leader will come with a few villagers later. You take the children first, I will come later.”

“Okay, remember to bring the cart over later,” she reminded him.

“Mhmm.”

After leaving the pig pen, Lu Jueyu returned to the house and went to the woodshed to get a bucket. She carried a bucket and walked to the front yard.

When she arrived in the front yard, she saw Dong Li and Dong Huang already waiting for her.
