Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1151

It was rare for her son to praise others, so when she heard this, Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "Indeed. Since Teacher Lin helped Xiao Huang before, we should repay her kindness. Tomorrow, Mother will go visit her."

Hearing this, Li Chenmo said, "Wife, take the bicycle when you go out tomorrow. I will be working in the farmland in the morning, so we will continue building the greenhouse after I return."

When Dong Li heard this, he looked at his father and asked curiously, "Father, what is a greenhouse?"

"A greenhouse is a structure designed to regulate the temperature and humidity inside. With it, we can grow summer vegetables even in winter," Li Chenmo explained.

The children’s eyes widened with amazement the moment they heard their father’s words. This was the first time they had heard of such a thing.

Villagers typically used dried straw to cover crops from the cold wind, but they still couldn’t grow summer vegetables in winter. The thought of eating fresh vegetables instead of pickled ones every day thrilled them.

Noticing their excitement, Li Chenmo asked, "How about you two help us build the greenhouse tomorrow?"

Dong Li and Dong Huang eagerly agreed, "Okay!"

Dong Huang was excited by the novelty, while Dong Li was keen to learn. He knew that acquiring new skills and knowledge could increase his and his family’s chances of survival in the future.

While Li Chenmo and his family were discussing the bamboo greenhouse project, Zhang Ermu was kneading dough in his house.

After paying off his debt, his family could finally enjoy noodles and steamed buns every day. Although he could only use a mix of half white flour and half coarse grain flour, it was still much better than before.

As he kneaded the dough, his mind wandered to the time he overheard Liu Hua talking to Liu Piao about introducing her to a man. He knew it would be better for her to marry someone from a farming family than to marry him.

Not only was his family’s social standing the lowest in the village and he was poor, his mother also still harbored resentment toward Liu Piao’s family for breaking off the engagement without reason.

Yet, even though he understood this, he couldn’t bring himself to accept it. Seeing her in a wedding dress for another man once had been painful enough—he didn’t want to experience that pain again.

At the thought of this, Zhang Ermu’s hands froze.

All along, he had been waiting for her to come back. Now that she has finally returned, he shouldn’t just wait for her to find him. If he couldn’t let go, he should take the initiative to chase after her.

Even if he failed to marry her, at least he wouldn’t have any regrets in the future. Perhaps then he could finally let her go and marry someone else.

Having made up his mind, he placed the dough into a basin and covered it with a cloth. He quickly washed his hands and went to find his mother.

His father had gone to the foothills to gather firewood while his sister went to send the clothes she sewed to the production team, so only his mother was at home.

After a moment of silence, she asked, "Ermu, do you still want to marry her?" _{freewёbnoνel.com}
