Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 1235

After she heard Lu Jueyu’s question, Liu Hua admitted, "I’m not sure of the exact size, but it’s the house near Brother Li Sang’s place. As for the requirements—two bedrooms, one living room, a kitchen, a toilet, a warehouse, and a woodshed should be enough."

Since it was only for Shi Qiwan, the house didn’t need to be too big.

As she listened, an idea for a modern two-story house flashed through Lu Jueyu’s mind.

They could build it using wood or bricks, improving ventilation and room management compared to traditional mud house designs. They could also incorporate built-in closets, cabinets, drawers, and a bed on the second floor.

As the details of the design took shape in her mind, Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "Sister Ah Hua, I will ask my husband to draw up the plans. Once they are ready, I will let you know."

Liu Hua was delighted when she heard this. Grabbing her hands, she said gratefully, "Thank you, Jueyu!"

Lu Jueyu smiled and replied, "You are welcome."

Meanwhile, An Xuyuan stood outside the Zhang family’s house with a bamboo basket on his back. Holding the bamboo pole, he knocked on the gate and called out, "Comrade Zhang, are you at home?"

He waited for a while, but no one came out. Frowning, he thought that the girl had gone to the mountain alone. Thinking about the dangers in the mountains, he turned and planned to go find her.

But before he took a step, he heard the girl’s voice, "Vice team leader, you are finally here."

Opening the gate, Zhang Yulan said, "If you didn’t come for another half an hour, I would have gone to the mountains by myself."

Hearing this, An Xuyuan replied, "I said I would go with you."

Closing the gate, Zhang Yulan nodded and said, "Okay, I know. We should leave now, or it will be too dark when we return."

After she finished speaking, she walked toward the hidden path without waiting for him.

Seeing her departing back, An Xuyuan shook his head and followed after her. When the two of them walked away, Mother Zhang watched them from the balcony.

After standing there for a while, she shook her head and went back to her room. She still had a lot of work to do. Before her son’s wedding day, she needed to finish the wedding dress for her daughter-in-law and make new clothes for her son.

At the same time, Zhang Yulan and An Xuyuan reached the mountain foothills.

Covering her nose, Zhang Yulan complained, "Ouch, my nose… Vice team leader, why did you pull me so suddenly? You could have just told me!"

The moment the soft body was no longer leaning on him, An Xuyuan finally let out a breath. Lowering his head, he looked at her red nose and said with a hint of guilt, "I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you."

After a while, the pain in Zhang Yulan’s nose finally subsided. She looked at him and said, "Vice team leader, the mushrooms growing here are big and taste like chicken meat. You should only pick the fresh young ones. Also, don’t eat too many if you have never had them before, or you might get diarrhea or even vomit."

Hearing this, An Xuyuan asked with a frown, "Doesn’t that mean this mushroom is toxic?"

"Well, my brother said some people might be allergic to it. That is why you need to try a little first. If you get diarrhea, you can’t eat it. If you are fine, then you can eat more," Zhang Yulan explained.

Looking at her, An Xuyuan said meaningfully, "Your brother seems really knowledgeable."

Raising her chin, Zhang Yulan replied proudly, "My brother is the best. Not only is he good-looking, but he is also smart, hardworking, and diligent. He even has lots of good friends. It was one of his friends who taught him about this mushroom and how to cook it."

Nodding at her words, An Xuyuan said, "We should start working now."
