Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1009

Looking at the dark sky, Jueyu asked, "Husband, should we prepare more breakfast for your second brother’s friend as well?"

"Since we are leaving at eight o’clock, they will probably arrive without having their breakfast. Let’s prepare extra for them," Li Chenmo replied.

After they made the decision, they quickly made porridge with century eggs and scallion pancakes. Since the menu was simple, they finished cooking in less than an hour.

As dawn broke, Father Li, Dong Li, and Li Lingyun woke up one by one. Knowing that city dwellers would look down on the villagers, the family agreed to wear their new clothes and shoes.

Although the men didn’t think much about it, Jueyu knew that dressing well would make a good impression not only on the neighbors but also on the Pan family. As in-laws, if they are too shabby, the neighbors will look down on the Li family and gossip about Pan Meijia’s family.

This is why she insisted on buying a watch for her father-in-law. If the neighbors saw that their family was living so well, they would no longer have anything to gossip about Pan Meijia marrying Li Lingyun.

Not long after they finished their breakfast, they heard a knock at the gate.

"Father, I will get the door. That should be my friend," said Li Lingyun.

Father Li nodded and said, "Invite them in for breakfast. We have plenty of time, there is no need to rush."

Lingyun nodded and went to open the door. When he saw that it was his men, he held the door wider, and said, "Come in and have breakfast first."

Hearing this, one of them smiled and asked in a low voice, "Boss, is this breakfast made by your sister-in-law?"

Lingyun glanced at him, and reminded him, "Call me brother."

The young man nodded and said, "Sorry, Brother, I forgot."

After they entered the house, Li Lingyun closed the door and led them to the living room. The moment they entered the living room, they saw an older man and a young man resembling their boss.

"Father, Third Brother, these are my friends. Everyone, this is my father, my third brother, and my nephew," Li Lingyun introduced them.

Father Li smiled at them and invited them to sit, "Please, have a seat."

Since he had finished his breakfast, Dong Li gave up his seat to the guests and went to the kitchen to bring more food for them while Li Chenmo stayed to keep them company.

While Father Li was grateful for his son’s friends coming to help, Li Chenmo noticed something between his second brother and these people.

These so-called friends treated his second brother with the respect of subordinates to a leader. It became clear they weren’t mere friends but members of his second brother’s network. However, knowing that his second brother had his own matters to manage, Li Chenmo chose not to pry.

Not long after, Dong Li returned with a huge pot of porridge while Lu Jueyu held a basket of scallion pancakes and another of utensils.

Seeing this, Li Chenmo walked over, took the basket from his wife, and said, "Wife, let me do it."
