Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 956

Chapter 956: Thank You, Comrade Xiao Huang!
Dong Li looked at Liu Fuyan and said, “You just offended that crazy woman. If you go back alone, what if she finds you and makes trouble again?”

“Okay, it’s getting late and I’m hungry. Let’s go,” he added.

Seeing that he insisted on this matter, Liu Fuyan could only follow behind him.

Noticing her small hurried footsteps, Dong Li slowed down and waited for her to catch up before he walked side by side with her. He looked at her face and found that she looked much better than the previous few days. It seems that she is no longer worried about the matter at home.

After sending Liu Fuyan back, he turned around and strode back. Without the little radish following him, he walked faster than usual and arrived home in less than an hour.

When he got home, Dong Li saw his parents and sister waiting for him while eating sweet potatoes on the balcony.

Seeing that he finally came back, Lu Jueyu said, “Ah Li, go wash your hands and let’s have lunch together.”

Dong Li felt guilty for making his parents wait for him, and said, “Mother, Father, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting for so long.”

“It doesn’t matter, Xiao Huang has already told us what happened,” Li Chenmo said.

Hearing his father’s words, Dong Li breathed a sigh of relief, He quickly went to the bedroom to put away his schoolbag, and then went to the backyard to wash off the dirt on his face, hands, and body.

When he finished cleaning himself, everyone was waiting in the living room and the dishes were served.

As soon as he sat down next to his sister, he heard his father say, “Okay, let’s eat.”

Dong Li was hungry, so he picked up the bowl and started eating. Although he had some snacks at school, he was used to eating on time. Therefore, the delay of more than two hours made his stomach growl.

After lunch, both children went to do their homework after Dong Li explained what happened at school. Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo only told him to be more careful in the future.

It had been a while since Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo had visited the lake in Mountain Falls. When they went to that place last time, there were many fruit trees there that were bearing fruit.

Maybe they can get some wild fruit and some freshwater fish today. So, they plan to go to the mountains to test their luck.

Although Lu Jueyu’s space can produce a lot of fruits, she still needs to pick some fruits as cover. After all, the fruit platter was one of the dishes on the menu for Li Lingyun and Pan Meijia’s wedding banquet.

Before leaving the house, Lu Jueyu went to find the children and said, “Xiao Li, Xiao Huang, there are mango pancakes and steamed buns in the kitchen. If you two are hungry, eat something to fill your stomach. Your father and I are going to the mountains and may come back late today.”

Hearing this, Dong Li nodded and said, “Mother, we understand. I will take care of Xiao Huang. Both you and my father should be more careful on the mountain.”

Lu Jueyu was feeling happy from her son’s concern and gently rubbed his head, “You and Xiao Huang also take a break occasionally. Don’t hurt your eyes.”

“Mother, don’t worry. Xiao Huang will pay attention to my brother,” Dong Huang said while patting her chest proudly.

Lu Jueyu was amused by her words and said with a chuckle, “Well, thank you Comrade Xiao Huang for your hard work.”

Dong Li was speechless by his sister’s words. His sister was certainly punctual when it came to taking breaks. It was as if her body was having an alarm. Every two hours she would clamor to take a break and go for a walk to relax her muscles and eyes.

After giving the children a few reminders, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo walked up the mountain carrying bamboo baskets on their backs.

Today, they did not take the road from their own backyard, but took the road commonly used by the villagers. Therefore, as soon as they walked toward the mountain direction, they were seen by a group of villagers.

Seeing the big bamboo baskets on their backs, a villager asked, “Jueyu, are you and your husband going to the foothills?”

Hearing this, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo both stopped.

“Auntie, my husband and I want to go to the mountains to see if we can find anything,” Lu Jueyu said with a smile.

Everyone knows that the Li family is preparing to go to the capital. The purpose of their trip was obvious. So, everyone knew that the Li family was about to hold a happy event.

Recalling the wedding banquet of Xiao Li and Liu Hua, another villager asked, “Do you want to find some vegetables and grain for the wedding banquet?”

Now that everyone knew about this, Lu Jueyu had no intention of hiding anything and admitted openly, “Well, we don’t grow any fruits at home, so I thought we might pick some wild fruits and dry them for later use.”

When the villagers heard this, their hearts moved, and some wanted to go to the mountain with Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo.

But before they could speak about their intentions, Li Chenmo interrupted them, “Aunties, my wife and I have to leave now, otherwise, we won’t be able to come back before dark.”

Hearing this, the anxious hearts of the villagers calmed down. It’s past noon now, and even if they go into the mountains now, they won’t be able to come back until night at the earliest.

Everyone knows how dangerous this mountain can be during the day, let alone at night. So, no one disturbed them. They said a few words and left.

Along the way, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo did not avoid the villagers, and some curious people asked some questions from time to time.
