Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife-Chapter 1370: Autumn Planting ( 1 )
When Li Chenmo and Dong Li arrived at the pig pen, his brothers, brothers-in-law, and the Chen brothers were already there.
Seeing Lu Han and Lu Cheng were also there, Li Chenmo asked, "Brother-in-law, why are you coming in the morning?"
"Brother-in-law, we have to start planting the farmland now, so we came to help in the morning since we can't come in the afternoon," Lu Han replied.
Hearing this, Li Chenmo nodded and said, "Then, we will clean the pig pen once in the morning during autumn planting."
"Okay," everyone agreed with his suggestion.
While they were working, Lu Jueyu and Dong Huang were busy in the kitchen.
Due to the danger, Lu Jueyu didn't let her daughter cook and only let her watch the fire while roasting the honey sweet potato. While she cooked, she would drink water mixed with the spiritual herbs powder to replenish her energy.
For today's breakfast, she cooked more filling food: steamed rice with pandan leaves, steamed eggs, roasted fish, and pumpkin soup. Besides these dishes, she also prepared scallion pancakes, meat steamed buns, and fruits for her husband and son as snacks.

At three o'clock, Li Chenmo and Dong Li returned from the pig pen. Although they didn't have an appetite in the morning, they still ate a bowl of rice and finished half of the dishes.
After breakfast, Lu Jueyu gave them a cup of soy milk and said, "Husband, Ah Li, drink some soy milk to nourish your body."
Since she had said so, the two of them finished the cup and went to change their clothes. Lu Jueyu had already prepared long-sleeved clothes for them made of bamboo fabric.
The bamboo fabric she used was made in the space's factory, so the quality was much better compared to the one they made manually. While bamboo fabric was susceptible to shrinking and wrinkling, the bamboo fabric produced in her space had no such concerns.
While they went to change their clothes, Lu Jueyu went to the kitchen and packed up some snacks and honey water. She added some spiritual herbs powder into the honey water to help keep the body hydrated.
Besides that, she also prepared two pouches with the inside layered with two layers of plastic to keep the pouch from becoming wet.
She cut cucumbers into bite-sized pieces and put them into the pouches. If her husband and son were hungry or thirsty, they could eat them during their work.
For Dong Huang, she gave her a sling bag instead of a pouch. Besides the cucumbers, Lu Jueyu added strawberries and cherries for her daughter.
When she was done, Li Chenmo and Dong Li were already waiting for her in the front yard with their tools.
She handed the small pouches, waterskins, and small cotton bag to them while saying, "Husband, I packed some snacks and fruits for you. If you are hungry, just eat them. I will send lunch over to you later."
Li Chenmo took the snacks and water prepared by his wife. He hung the small pouch and waterskin on his waist and held the bag. He kissed his wife's forehead and said, "If you are tired, just make simple dishes for lunch."
Lu Jueyu nodded and reminded him, "I know. Be careful when you are working.
"Okay."
After Li Chenmo and Dong Li left the house, they walked to the south area. Compared to the north area, the south area was much closer to their house.
When they reached the farmland, it was ten minutes before four o'clock. A production team staff was checking the attendance of the villagers.
At four o'clock, the sound of a siren echoed in the silent morning. With this, the villagers started to work.
Everyone was experienced with farm work and worked without needing anyone to instruct them. As for the children who joined for the first time, their parents guided them as they worked.
When the sun rose, Dong Huang went to find her mother and said, "Mother, I'm going to gather some pigweeds with Ah Lin and Shitou in the mountain foothills."
Lu Jueyu nodded, handed her two sling bags and a waterskin, and said, "Xiao Huang, share the snacks and water with Xiao Lin and Shitou later. Be careful when you go to the foothills—don't go to the mountain."
Dong Huang slung the bags over her shoulder and nodded, "Mother, I will be back before lunch and help you send the food."
"Okay."
After getting her mother's permission, Dong Huang took her bamboo basket and scythe before she went to meet with her friends.
When she was alone, Lu Jueyu went to her space and took a nap.
Time passes quickly when people are busy. When Dong Li straightened his sore waist and wiped the sweat from his forehead, he noticed the sun had risen more than three poles high.
He went to the tree and took his bamboo hat. Compared to the straw hat, the bamboo hat was more sustainable and breathable. They not only blocked the sun but were also waterproof.
The bamboo hats used by his family were made by his father personally. So, the size of the hat was bigger compared to usual and could block more sunlight. The moment he wore the bamboo hat, he felt cool under the shade.
While he was working diligently, Dong Huang, Feng Lin, and Shitou were already on their way back from the mountain foothills. Unlike other children who had little harvest, the three of them had full baskets.
When everyone gathered in the area where they usually went, the three of them had gone to the foothills behind Dong Huang's house. Not only was the area flatter and closer to her house, but the amount of pigweeds was also abundant.
Pushing open the backyard gate, she entered the house while calling, "Mother, Xiao Huang is back."
At this moment, Lu Jueyu was packing a lunch in the kitchen. Hearing her daughter's voice, she came out and said, "Xiao Huang, you are back. Go wash your hands, and we can go deliver lunch to your father and brother."
