Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 216

Lu Jueyu stood at the door until she could no longer see her husband’s back, then returned to the house. She washed the dishes first, then went to the chicken coop to get eggs and refilled the feeder and water. Later, she carried another bucket of water to water the vegetable garden and peach tree and sweep the yards.

It took her an hour to finish the house chores. Since it was still early, she went to the backyard, got a bamboo basket, and left the house after locking the door. After going up the mountain last time, she found that mushrooms and wild fruits were growing thrivingly. She might get more mushrooms today.

When she reached the mountain foothills, she met several children picking up pigweeds on the side of the road. When they saw her heading towards the mountain, one of them shouted, "Sister, don’t go up the mountain. The team leader said there are wild boars there and it’s dangerous for us to go there."

When Lu Jueyu heard his words, she stopped her steps. She turned around, pointed in one direction, and said with a smile, "Thank you for reminding me. I will only go there."

The children looked at her without saying anything and continued to collect the pigweed. Only the boy who reminded her just now stood motionless while looking at her back thoughtfully. After hesitating for a while, he looked at his sister and said, "Xiao Huang, wait here. Brother will follow that sister to see where she was going. "

Dong Huang grabbed her brother’s sleeve tightly and shook her head.

Dong Li looked at her sister and then at Lu Jueyu’s back. Seeing that she had gone so far, he thought for a moment, took his sister’s hand, and followed Lu Jueyu. He wondered where she had gotten so much pigweed last time.

If he could find out where she got the pigweed, he and his sister wouldn’t have to compete with the other kids. They may be able to earn more work points. With such hope, he and his sister followed Lu Jueyu.

Not knowing that there were two little tails behind her, Lu Jueyu walked towards the mountain while humming a song. When she sees a few clusters of mushrooms, she stops to pick them.

Dong Li and Dong Huang saw her picking those weird plants and looked at each other. They didn’t know why she collected those ugly-looking plants. After following her for a while, Dong Li discovered that she had not collected any pigweed at all.

Feeling a little disappointed, he took his sister’s hand and said, "Let’s go back. There is no pigweed here. We should go back, otherwise, we won’t get any pigweed today."

Dong Huang nodded, and the two of them walked back to the village.

After the two left, Lu Jueyu turned around and looked at their backs with a smile. When no one was following her, she walked up the mountain, looking for more staple food, medicinal plants, mushrooms, and wild fruits.

But no matter what the villagers thought, they had no intention of providing any help. They are curious and like to gossip about other people’s family affairs, but they will never interfere. What if they get pulled into muddy water? It will be them who suffer. So, it’s better not to ask too many questions about this kind of matter. _{freёwebnovel.com}
