Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1098

As Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu rode away, another villager sneered, "Sister-in-law, you are such a busybody. They didn’t even put you in their eyes, yet you ran over to ask questions."

The villager’s face turned gloomy when she heard this, and retorted, "Don’t judge others with your petty mind. Jueyu is a good child and has never looked down on anyone."

"Are you sure about that?"

"At least I was invited to the Li family’s wedding banquet. What about you?"

The moment everyone heard this, their eyes lit up, and they gathered to join the conversation.

"Sister-in-law, I heard the Li family also invited the brigade secretary and their staff. Not everyone can attend this wedding banquet. Were you really invited?" one of the villagers asked.

The woman, visibly annoyed, snapped back, "Hey, what do you mean by that? Are you calling me a liar?"

"Well, I didn’t mean it that way. I was just asking. No need to get angry," the villager muttered.

The woman snorted and said, "The Li family are my husband’s distant relatives. We were invited as a family."

Hearing this, everyone exchanged knowing looks. They had thought her family was influential, but it turned out they were merely distant relatives.

Such relationships could be considered either close or distant depending on the level of interaction. Judging by Li Chenmo’s reaction earlier, he didn’t seem to recognize this supposed relative. With that, the villagers lost interest in the woman’s story and returned to their work.

Unaware of the gossip behind them, Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu finally arrived at the Lu family’s house.

After parking the bicycle, Lu Jueyu discreetly used her husband’s body as cover to retrieve the gifts from her space and place them in the bamboo basket. _{freeweɓnøvel.com}

Not long after, they heard Chen Anwen’s voice coming from the house, "Jueyu, brother-in-law, what brings you two here?"

Lu Jueyu smiled warmly and replied, "Eldest sister-in-law, we came to bring you something."

Chen Anwen smiled and invited them inside, "Come in, quickly."

As Li Chenmo carried the bamboo basket, Lu Jueyu asked, "Eldest sister-in-law, where is my second sister-in-law?"

"She went to the hospital with your second brother this morning for a check-up," Chen Anwen replied while pouring them tea.

After sitting down and drinking the tea, Lu Jueyu said, "Sister-in-law, we bought some things from the capital for everyone. Since everyone is busy, we will leave the gifts with you."

Chen Anwen was surprised and protested, "Jueyu, there is no need to buy so many things or spend money like this."

"Sister-in-law, it’s rare for us to visit the capital city. Of course, we had to bring something back for everyone," Lu Jueyu said with a smile.

Finding her words reasonable, Chen Anwen no longer resisted.

"These are for you, my eldest brother, and nephews. These are for Father and Mother, and the rest are for my second brother’s family," Lu Jueyu explained while unpacking the gifts.

When she saw the amount of gifts, Chen Anwen was stunned. It took her a moment to recover and ask, "Jueyu, how much money did you spend on all of this?"
