Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 235

In the county town, after Li Chenxuan came back from Xie village, he went to the room he rented and put all the food in the cabinet. He scooped out a bowl of coarse grains and used it to make porridge. When the porridge was cooked, he cut a few thin slices of meat, minced it, and put it into the porridge.

He put the remaining meat in the cabinet and locked it. Since the meat is cured with salt, it can be stored for a long time as long as it doesn’t get wet. With the cured meat added to the porridge, he wouldn’t have to add any salt. The porridge was cooked until it was soft.

He scooped a bowl of thick porridge from the pot, poured water into the pot, and cooked for a while. When the porridge was boiling, he turned off the stove and poured the thin porridge into the jar. He finished eating the thick porridge, locked the door, and left home with a jar of porridge.

When he arrived at the hospital, he was startled to see his father-in-law sleeping in a chair next to the bed. Entering the ward, he looked around and didn’t see Mother Jiao. As soon as he put the jar on the table, Father Jiao was woken up by the sound.

He looked at Li Chenxuan and the bright sunshine outside, and asked with a frown, "Why are you only coming here now?"

"Father, I went back to Xie village to get food. I cooked some meat porridge before I came here. Will my mother-in-law be here today?" Although Li Chenxuan was a little dissatisfied with Father Jiao’s attitude, he still asked politely.

"I will go back and tell her to come. You should take good care of your wife while you are here. The nurse said we need to rub her body and move her occasionally so that there will be no rash on her back." Father Jiao said as he stood up and rubbed his tired eyes.

Hearing that Father Jiao was going back to call Mother Jiao, Li Chenxuan nodded and said, "I understand, Father."

Father Jiao glanced at his daughter again, then left the ward before he returned home. Li Chenxuan, on the other hand, was sitting on the chair beside the bed, showing no intention of wiping his wife’s body or taking care of her.

Soon after, Professor Zhang walked into the ward followed by several doctors and nurses. Seeing Li Chenxuan, he walked over and asked, "Comrade Li, have you discussed your wife’s treatment plan with your family?"

Seeing them entering the ward, Li Chenxuan stood up. Hearing Professor Zhang’s question, he lowered his head, looking like a desperate husband. His shoulders shook several times before he raised his hand to wipe his tears. The young doctors and nurses felt pity for him when they saw him.

After taking a few deep breaths, he raised his head and looked at Professor Zhang with despair. He opened his mouth several times before finally saying hoarsely, "Doctor, can you save my wife? I promise that I will pay for the treatment and hospitalization fees. Just give me a month, no, give me two weeks, I promise to pay you."

Seeing how eager he was, Professor Zhang thought that after facing a desperate situation, Li Chenxuan was very excited because he finally saw the light of hope. Therefore, he felt that Li Chenxuan and Jiao Siyu were a loving couple and were more sympathetic to him.

Soon after Professor Zhang left with the doctors and nurses, Mother Jiao walked into the ward. As soon as she saw Li Chenxuan, her face darkened and she asked, "Did you bring me a meal?"

"Mother, I cooked meat porridge today. I may not be able to come for several days. I will give you the ingredients later. Do you think it’s okay? Li Chenxuan asked.

Because of the donation, he was in a good mood and didn’t mind Mother Jiao’s attitude.

After hearing his words, Mother Jiao squinted her eyes and thought for a while. Although it may be troublesome to cook by herself, it is better to get the ingredients since she can save it for later.
