Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1304

After An Xuyuan left on his bicycle, Shi Qiwan finally sat on the ground and cried. She felt deep sadness and utter disappointment toward her family. She couldn't understand what she had done wrong to be treated this way by them.

Seeing her mother like this, Liu Fuyan hugged her and said, "Mother, it's not your fault. It's them who can't appreciate your filial piety."

The children felt sad when they saw her crying. Though they were too young to understand the complexities of the adult world, they could still feel her pain. Anyone would feel heartbroken if their own family treated them this way.

Since no one was in the mood to work, Dong Li sighed and said, "Let's stop working and go fishing today."

The moment they heard his words, the children cheered. Even Shi Qiwan managed a small smile and nodded.

While they were cleaning up their tools, Liu Fuyan walked to him and said, "Thank you, Brother Ah Li."

"Mhmm, don't worry too much about your mother. Give her some time, and she will get better," Dong Li reassured her.

Meanwhile, in the Zhang family's house, a group of production staff came carrying sack after sack of wheat seeds. Standing in the yard, Father Zhang watched with confusion.

Although Father Zhang rarely interacted with the villagers, he was known as a hardworking person. So, when he walked over, the production staff still greeted him with a smile.

"Uncle Zhang, we are sorry for coming without informing you," one of the researchers said.

Father Zhang was at a loss for what to do and said, "Comrade Chen, these are—"

Noticing his confusion, Comrade Chen replied, "Oh, these are wheat seeds sent from the capital. The vice team leader said that your family agreed to exchange wheat seeds with us. Since time is tight, we decided to bring them over today."

When Father Zhang heard this, he was taken aback. While his family still had some grains at home, those were corn, broken rice, barley, and some sorghum. Where did their family get wheat seeds to exchange with the production team?

While he was in a dilemma, Zhang Ermu walked into the yard with a big bamboo basket on his back. Seeing the production team's staff, he asked, "What brings everyone here today?"

"Brother Ermu, the vice team leader said you are willing to exchange seeds with us. So, we came here today," one of the staff replied.

"But the wheat is not dried yet," Zhang Ermu said.

"It doesn't matter. We will do it ourselves. Brother Ermu, do you think it's possible to exchange the seeds today?" the staff asked.

Since they could save time and effort drying the seeds, Zhang Ermu readily agreed and said, "Sure, come with me."
