Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1557

Chapter 1557: Thank You ( 1 )

Hearing his brother-in-law’s words, Father Li let out a sigh and said, "Whether they are adopted or not, since they are registered as my third son’s children, they are my Li family’s children."

"As their grandfather, it’s my responsibility to protect them from harm. Even if people often say that it is just some words, the harm done to the children is no less than a physical attack."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he swallowed back his words. While Father Li entertained the relatives, Lu Jueyu and her sisters-in-law were busy in the kitchen.

With Zhang Dongmei and Pan Meijia doing the cooking, Lu Jueyu helped them pick vegetables or wash the ingredients.

Pan Meijia prepared bone soup for lunch, and when it was almost done, she opened the lid. The moment the vapor hit her face, she frowned at the greasy smell. Before she could close the lid back, she suddenly felt nauseous and let out a retch.

The moment she saw this, Zhang Dongmei placed the ladle in her hand on the tray and went to check on her. She quickly closed the lid and asked, "Second sister-in-law, what’s wrong?"

Pan Meijia felt so nauseous that she couldn’t answer her eldest sister-in-law. Covering her mouth, she ran to the bathroom and squatted there with a pale face.

Zhang Dongmei poured a cup of warm water and followed after her. After a while, the two of them returned to the kitchen.

Lu Jueyu looked at her second sister-in-law and asked worriedly, "Second sister-in-law, you look so pale. Are you alright?"

Zhang Dongmei helped Pan Meijia to sit down on the low bench before she asked, "Second sister-in-law, did you get your period this month?"

As soon as she said this, Lu Jueyu’s eyes lit up. She looked at Pan Meijia and said, "Second sister-in-law, I think the possibility of you being pregnant is very high."

Touching her flat belly, Pan Meijia said unsurely, "My period never has a fixed time, so I don’t know if I’m pregnant or not. Maybe just a stomach flu."

Hearing this, Lu Jueyu gave her a side glance and said, "With how often the second brother is bothering you, I think it’s better for you to have a check-up after the New Year. Even if you are not pregnant, it’s also good to have a health check-up."

Pan Meijia blushed at her words and said, "Third sister-in-law, when did you learn to be this shameless?"

When they heard this, both Zhang Dongmei and Lu Jueyu laughed for a moment.

"With a shameless husband like ours, it will be a miracle for us to stay shy," Zhang Dongmei said with a chuckle.

Lu Jueyu nodded and added, "Get close to the ink and you will stain black."

Since Pan Meijia was feeling unwell, the rest of the cooking was handled by Zhang Dongmei. Fortunately, they had almost finished with the cooking, so she could handle it.

Lu Jueyu snuggled on the soft cotton quilt before she said, "Okay."

Since school had opened and the children had to go to school, they would stay with Father Li while Lu Jueyu stayed in the hospital.

Two hours later, Li Chenmo parked the bicycle at the hospital’s parking lot and nudged his wife gently. He held her hand and called, "Wife, wake up."

Feeling the gentle squeeze on her hands, Lu Jueyu slowly opened her eyes. Rubbing her eyes, she asked drowsily, "Husband, where are we?"

"We have arrived at the hospital."

Hearing this, Lu Jueyu nodded and sat for a moment to regain her senses while Li Chenmo slung their cotton bags on his shoulders.

After he helped his wife down from the cart, he packed the cotton quilt, put it into a bamboo basket together with the cushions, and carried it on his back. Afterward, he held his wife’s arm to support her as they walked slowly to the hospital’s lobby.

When everyone saw how big Lu Jueyu’s belly was, they were shocked and stared at her for a long time. While her condition looked worrying, she was very healthy.
