Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 673

Yi Jiao took out a small jar from the cabinet and went to open the pickling jar. She picked up the pickles with her chopsticks and put them into a small jar. Then, she poured some pickle water into it with a spoon, and sealed the jar.

She walked to the kitchen table, put the jars on it, and said, "Husband, we just moved in, so we can’t refuse his invitation. What if he thinks we are arrogant and unwilling to associate with him?"

After hearing what his wife said, Chen Xiang said, "Then what should we do? We can’t just go over and eat his food."

Yi Jiao smiled at her husband, pointed to the pickled vegetables and five salted duck eggs on the kitchen table and said, "We can just bring something good for him when we go over. This way, we still accepted his invitation and won’t leave any bad impressions."

After hearing his wife’s explanation, Chen Xiang’s eyes lit up and he said, "Wife, I understand."

Yi Jiao took a small bamboo basket, put pickled vegetables and salted duck eggs in it, and went to wash her hands and face.

At first, she bought salted duck eggs from the black market for her husband and children. She heard from her brother that these good things were hard to buy. It took her brother several days of waiting before he finally managed to buy it. Although pricey, the taste is unforgettable.

Since it’s a good thing, it wouldn’t be too shabby to exchange it for eels. So, Yi Jiao hardened her heart and decided to give it to Xiao Li as a gift.

After washing and changing clothes, Chen Xiang and Yi Jiao took their children to Xiao Li’s house. As their youngest daughter was only two years old, she was held in her father’s arms. As for their nine-year-old son, he held his sister’s hand while walking in front of his parents.

Because they are neighbors, they arrived in less than five minutes. Seeing the gate was open, they entered the house and saw two vegetable gardens planted neatly in the front yard.

While walking to the house, Chen Xiang said, "Brother Xiao, we are here."

Not long after, Liu Hua was seen walking from the backyard carrying a basket of steamed buns, followed by Xiao Li, who was carrying a pot of steaming stew.

As soon as children smell the aroma of food, they can’t help but lick their lips. Although they just ate meat buns yesterday, the amount of meat was very small and could not satisfy their craving at all.

Liu Hua saw them and said with a smile, "Brother Chen Xiang, sister-in-law, you are all here. Please come in, the food is ready."

Yi Jiao has long heard about the relationship between Xiao Li and Liu Hua. The villagers said that Xiao Li wanted to marry Aunt Lin’s niece, but she believed that the person he wanted to marry was Liu Hua. So, she wasn’t surprised when she saw her here.

Entering the living room, Xiao Li said, "Brother Chen Xiang, sister-in-law, you sit down first. I will get the grilled eel and tableware."

Seeing their father sit down, the children followed suit. _{fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓}
