Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1136

Compared to the aged wine, the newly brewed batch was sweeter and had a lower alcohol content. It was perfect for women and children. But she didn’t want her children to have alcohol before they became adults, so she gave them honey water instead. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

Raising her cup, she said, "Uncle Pan, Aunt Pan, Second Aunt, this is osmanthus wine, one of my homemade brews. Please have a try."

After speaking, she took a sip before setting her cup down. Following her lead, the Pan family tasted the wine. As soon as they took a sip, Mother Pan and the second aunt’s eyes lit up.

Having frequented high society circles’ banquets, they had tasted imported red wines and expensive government-produced liquors. Yet, compared to this osmanthus wine, those seemed like cheap imitations.

Noticing their reactions, Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "If Aunt Pan and Second Aunt enjoy it, I still have some left in the cellar. You can take a bottle home to savor later."

Hearing her words, the second aunt let out a chuckle and said, "Jueyu, with your social skills, you would do wonderfully among the capital’s socialites."

Smiling at her words, Lu Jueyu replied, "Second Aunt, you are flattering me. I’m just a villager who is content with my life here with my husband and children. I have no plans to move to the capital yet."

The Pan family exchanged surprised glances when they heard her words. Her words hinted she might not stay in the village forever. Perhaps one day, they would welcome her to the capital. With that thought, they said nothing further and began eating.

After thirty minutes, Lu Jueyu set her bowl down, wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and said, "Uncle Pan, tomorrow is the third day of my second brother’s wedding."

"According to tradition, he and his wife should visit your family. Since visiting you in the capital isn’t possible, how about using my house for the ceremony?"

Father Pan was taken aback at her words. While he and his wife had considered this, they hadn’t brought it up out of embarrassment. Staying in the Li family’s house was already a great imposition, let alone asking to use their house for such an event. So, her offer caught them off guard.

Glancing at Li Chenmo, Father Pan asked, "Chenmo, what do you think?"

Raising his gaze, Li Chenmo replied with a smile, "Uncle Pan, I will follow my wife’s decision."

The Pan family stared at him in shock. They had always known he cherished his wife, but his level of pampering was unexpected. It seemed as if it was Lu Jueyu who held the final say in their household.

Noticing their expressions, Dong Li shook his head and quickly finished his meal. Standing up, he said, "Mother, I have homework to do. May I leave the table first?"

Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "Go ahead. Don’t worry about the dishes, just focus on your studies."

Dong Li nodded and said, "I understand, Mother."
