Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 42

Lu Jueyu turned her head and looked at Wang Muxiao with wide eyes, and asked in a low voice, "So generous?"

Hearing her words, Wang Muxiao waved her hands and said, "You don’t know, she is not only generous, but also very straightforward. She asked how much it was, and I just casually said 5 yuan. The next moment, she really gave the money without saying a word."

"Five yuan for a bowl of dumplings? The ingredients are not that expensive, aren’t they overpriced?" Lu Jueyu was surprised by Wang Muxiao’s ’appetite’. One dares to take, another dares to give.

Wang Muxiao clicked her tongue and said, "Where is it over priced? Herbal medicines such as ginseng are very precious. Not to mention meat, eggs and fresh vegetables. At this time, where do you go to find fresh vegetables? If not your fiancé cares about you and is filial to our parents, how can we eat those things?"

Lu Jueyu was stunned by her words. She did miss that point. During winter, most people can only eat pickled vegetables. Not to mention fresh vegetables, even eggs and fish are hard to find. It seems that she must be more careful next time.

After Father Lu was seated, the Lu family began to eat. Since it is her sister-in-law who cooks, the food is not as delicious as usual. For dinner, there are coarse-grain porridge, meat sauce, and coarse-grain pancakes. Fortunately, she makes really good meat sauce. When they eat pancakes, they spread a thin layer of meat sauce on top.

Just as Wang Muxiao expected, Xiao Yiqing and Pan Meijia walked out of the room. They thought they could have another delicious meal, and they were already salivating, but when they saw the food, their hearts sank. Why is the food different from yesterday? Could it be that those foods were really given to them by their future son-in-law, rather than bought by themselves?

Lu Jueyu glanced at them but said nothing, and continued to eat. After a while, Xiao Yiqing asked, "Sister-in-law, can I have a bowl of porridge and a pancake?"

"Of course. Because we only use ordinary ingredients tonight, you just need to give us fifty cents for a bowl of porridge and a pancake." Wang Muxiao said with a broad smile.

Although it was only fifty cents, it was still expensive compared to the amount of food they got in exchange. Because they use whole grains, the ingredients for a bowl of porridge and a pancake should only cost about ten to twenty cents. But even if she knew the price was too high, she could only agree to her price. After all, it was already the end of the year, and food was in short supply.

She was lucky enough to get some food.
