Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife-Chapter 1329: First Visit

As the bullock cart left the county town's hospital, Lu Cheng had just finished covering his wife and children with a blanket. With one side occupied by Wang Muxiao and the babies, the other side was filled with bags.

When he left the hospital, he didn't forget to greet the guard. "Uncle, thank you for your help that day. We are going back home now."

The guard saw the newborn babies and replied with a smile, "Comrade, congratulations to both of you!"

Wang Muxiao reached into her bag and took out a handful of candies. She handed them to her husband, who then shoved the candies into the guard's hands.

"Uncle, these are some candies to celebrate my family's joyous occasion. Please have it. We will be leaving now," Lu Cheng said before he pushed the bicycle and pedaled away.

Seeing that Lu Cheng didn't want him to refuse, the guard smiled wider and said, "Thank you, comrade!"

Meanwhile, Lu Jueyu and Li Chenmo were plowing the soil in the backyard using a small tractor from her space.

After they finished turning the soil, Lu Jueyu stored the tractor back into her space. When they were done, Li Chenmo used a machine to plant the greenhouse with watermelon seeds.

While he was busy planting the seeds, Lu Jueyu went to the corner of the backyard and took out 500 bags of compost from her space. Not long after, she heard the sound of a bell and went to find her husband.

"Husband, someone is here," she said.

Hearing this, Li Chenmo handed the machine to her and said, "I will go and see who is coming. Wife, help me finish the rest."

Lu Jueyu nodded and took the machine as she replied, "Okay."

There were only a few rows of seeds left to be planted, so she quickly finished while her husband went to open the door.

When she was done, she stored the machine back into her space and used lake water from her space to water the garden before she went to wash the dirt off her hands and legs.

At the front yard, Li Chenmo opened the gate, saw unfamiliar faces, and asked, "Comrade, who are you looking for?"

Song Li smiled at his cousin-in-law and replied, "Brother-in-law, I'm Jueyu's older cousin, Song Li. These are my wife and children. It's been a while since we moved to our new house, and we only have time to visit today. I hope we are not bothering you."

When Li Chenmo heard this, he finally recalled that the man in front of him was indeed his wife's maternal cousin. Stepping aside, he gestured for them to enter and said, "Brother-in-law, it's no bother. Please come in."

After locking the gate, he led them to the main hall, glanced at the two boys, and said, "I heard from Ah Li that he often plays with his cousins. It was our negligence as younger siblings not to visit your family sooner."

Song Li was flattered by his cousin-in-law's polite words and said, "Brother-in-law, you are busy. What's more, due to my family's situation, we rarely interacted with my cousin. Only now that we have finally moved out are we able to visit."

Hearing this, Li Chenmo thought about his conversation with his wife before and said, "Sister-in-law, please thank your mother when you visit your family."

Zhao Ya was confused by his words and asked, "Brother-in-law, did you meet my mother?"

Li Chenmo nodded and replied, "We met yesterday, and your mother helped my wife."

When she heard this, Zhao Ya smiled and said, "I will convey your words to my mother."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

As they walked, Song Li and Zhao Ya were occupied with their conversation and didn't notice anything. But Song Wen and Song Min were amazed by the structures in the yard and couldn't help but feel curious.

After holding himself back for a while, Song Min finally asked, "Uncle, what are those buildings?"

Li Chenmo looked in the direction he was pointing and replied, "Those buildings are called greenhouses. They were built using bamboo and thatch and are connected with a bamboo pipe to the big stove behind the house."

Song Wen looked at the greenhouses thoughtfully and asked, "Uncle Li, what is the purpose of those greenhouses?"

"My family uses them to grow vegetables and medicinal herbs. With the heat from the stove being transferred to the greenhouse through the bamboo pipe, we can keep the temperature warm enough for summer vegetables to be planted during winter," Li Chenmo explained.

The moment they heard this, Song Min exclaimed, "Wow! Then, will we be able to eat fresh vegetables even in winter?"

Li Chenmo nodded and said, "Yes. But it's still in the trial period, so we don't know yet if it will be successful. Once we have gathered enough data and confirmed that it works, we will send a report and all the data to the brigade. This way, everyone can have fresh vegetables in the future, no matter the season."

Song Li was amazed by how generous, smart, and hardworking his cousin's husband was. If it were someone else, they wouldn't even think to build such a structure, let alone share the knowledge with others.

The most common behavior would be to keep the secret within their family and sell vegetables at a high price on the black market.

If everyone could grow vegetables in winter, black market prices would drop, harming the interests of many people.

Reaching this conclusion, Song Li was feeling uneasy and asked, "Brother-in-law, when you send the data to the brigade, you must be cautious. If possible, don't let people know that it was you who did it."

Raising his eyebrows, Li Chenmo asked curiously, "Brother-in-law, why do you say so?"

After hesitating for a moment, Song Li finally lowered his voice and said, "Brother-in-law, you might not know, but there are several middlemen in the black market selling fresh vegetables at a high price."

"If they find out that you have developed a method to grow fresh vegetables in winter and hand it to the brigade, they won't let you go."
