Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife-Chapter 1249: Recommendation

Lu Jueyu understood Liu Hua’s thoughts. She knew her friend felt it was a waste to share something so valuable, especially with ungrateful villagers. But if this could contribute to the country and benefit more people, she would gain far more in return.

After all, her space rewarded her whenever she helped others or changed their fates. She also believed that since she had the ability to help, she should accumulate good karma for her children’s future.

Her father from her previous life had once told her that helping others was helping herself. If she could do something that could ensure her children’s safety, then there were no disadvantages—only benefits.

With this in mind, she smiled and said, "Sister Liu Hua, it doesn’t matter if no one thanks me. I’m doing this for my own peace of mind."

Liu Hua knew how stubborn her friend was once she had made up her mind. Unwilling to make things awkward, she sighed and said nothing.

When they reached the living room, Lu Jueyu poured a cup of honey water for each of them and took a seat.

After they drank some water, Liu Piao placed the bamboo cup down and said, "Jueyu, this time, I came to ask you for help."

Hearing this, Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "Sister Liu Piao, just tell me how I can help you."

Liu Piao felt shy for a moment before saying, "Jueyu, I want to ask you to help me with my wedding banquet. I don’t know if it will be convenient for you."

When she heard this, Lu Jueyu was surprised since she hadn’t heard about Liu Piao getting close to any man after returning from the city. After a moment, she said, "Congratulations, Sister Liu Piao."

"Thank you," Liu Piao replied bashfully.

"Sister Liu Piao, I really want to help with your wedding banquet, but I’m afraid I can’t due to my health condition," Lu Jueyu said with a sigh.

Hearing her words, Liu Hua asked worriedly, "Jueyu, what’s wrong with your body? Did your old illness flare up again?"

"It’s not that," Lu Jueyu replied with a smile.

She placed her palm on her abdomen and added, "Sister Liu Hua, I’m pregnant, so I won’t be able to handle long hours of cooking."

"Jueyu, you are really pregnant?" Liu Hua asked, her eyes widened in surprise.

When Liu Piao heard her cousin’s words, she glanced at Lu Jueyu, worried she might be offended by the reaction. Unexpectedly, she only smiled and nodded.

Liu Hua was so happy she couldn’t speak for a while. When she calmed down, she held her friend’s hands and said with teary eyes, "Jueyu, you are finally pregnant. I’m so happy for you. This time, no one can call you a hen that can’t lay eggs anymore!"

Hearing her words, Lu Jueyu chuckled and said, "Well, pregnancy isn’t something we can control. When the time is right, it happens naturally."

Liu Hua nodded and asked, "Have you told your family?"

Shaking her head, Lu Jueyu said, "Not yet. It’s only been three weeks, so my husband and I didn’t plan to tell anyone yet. We want to wait until after the first trimester." Continue your journey on novelbuddy

Liu Piao nodded and said, "It’s good to wait. This way, you can take care of your pregnancy without any pressure from others. The first trimester is important and also risky since the fetus is still unstable. You must get enough rest and eat more nourishing food."

"Since you can’t do heavy work, I will find someone else. Don’t worry about my matter—just take good care of yourself and your baby," she added.

Seeing their sincere concern, Lu Jueyu felt warmth in her heart. In this world, she had so many people who cared about her.

When she thought about Liu Piao’s wedding banquet, an idea suddenly came to mind.

She looked at them and said, "Sister Liu Piao, although I can’t do the cooking, I can find people who can."

Hearing this, Liu Piao asked, "Do you have anyone in mind?"

"Well, my son and his friend are learning how to cook from me. Even if their skills aren’t at my or my husband’s level yet, they are much better than the chefs at state-owned restaurants. I just don’t know if you would be willing to let them handle the wedding banquet," Lu Jueyu replied with a smile.

"Jueyu, isn’t your son only 13 years old after the lunar new year? Are they really as good as you say?" Liu Hua asked.

Lu Jueyu thought for a moment and replied, "While they are young, their stamina and strength are more than enough to handle long hours of cooking. I also teach them personally. Currently, their mastery has already reached an intermediate level, and they can cook simple dishes."

Seeing their doubt, she added, "How about I ask them to cook a few dishes suitable for a wedding banquet, and you can try them first?"

"If you are satisfied with their cooking, then let them do it to gain experience. If their cooking isn’t up to standard, it’s not too late to find someone else."

When they heard her words, Liu Piao and Liu Hua looked at each other. Her suggestion only benefited them, so there was no reason to reject it.

"Then, we will have to trouble you with this matter," Liu Piao said.

"It’s no trouble at all. It’s also good for them to practice and receive feedback on their cooking," Lu Jueyu said with a smile.

"Sister Liu Piao, have you chosen your wedding date?" she asked.

"Not yet. We are waiting for the Zhang family to propose and choose the date later," Liu Hua said.

Lu Jueyu nodded at her words and said, "Then, how about we taste the dishes next week on the school’s day off?"

"We will just follow your decision. After all, the children are busy with school, while we have more free time. We can do it anytime," Liu Piao readily agreed.

"Good."
