Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 994

After they stored all the items in the drawer and cabinet, Mother Xiao opened the thermos flask and said, "Qingqing, Mother made some vegetable porridge for you. You should eat some."

Looking at her mother, Xiao Yiqing smiled and said, "Mother, I have eaten two steamed buns. I will eat it later."

Knowing that her daughter had a small appetite, Mother Xiao didn’t force her to eat and said, "Alright. Mother also made some chicken soup for Zigu. When he wakes up, remember to let him drink more."

Xiao Yiqing nodded and replied, "Mn, I know."

Sitting on the chair, Mother Xiao looked at her daughter and asked, "Qingqing, did you get used to living at the barracks?"

"Mother, I’m used to it. The neighbors are nice, and my husband’s comrades took care of me when he went on missions. I feel happy and enjoy my day," Xiao Yiqing said with a smile.

When Mother Xiao heard her daughter’s words, she looked at her for a moment before saying, "It’s good if you are happy."

Taking out a pouch from her pocket, she pressed it into her daughter’s hands and said, "Qingqing, take this with you." _{frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓}

Xiao Yiqing was taken aback by her mother’s action and said, "Mother, you don’t have to—"

"Be good and take it. You know that your mother never lacks this, and you need to spend money everywhere now since your husband is hospitalized. If you need more, just let your mother know."

"Don’t make yourself suffer just to save some money. Even though you are no longer listed in the Xiao family’s genealogy book, you are still my daughter. Your father, your brother, and I will always be your family, and we will protect and support you," Mother Xiao reminded her in a low voice.

Seeing her mother’s concerns, Xiao Yiqing could only accept the money and said, "Mother, my husband gave me all of his money. I have enough at home, you don’t have to worry about me."

"What’s more, with my husband with me, I don’t feel wronged at all. I truly have a great life now," she added firmly.

Mother Xiao let out a sigh and said, "Qingqing, it’s not that Mother doesn’t trust Zigu. It’s just that you are the apple of my eye. When did you ever suffer like this?"

Xiao Yiqing held her mother’s hands and said helplessly, "Mother, even though I had a luxurious life before, I didn’t feel happy at all."

"Now, I have the man I love with me, and I have the freedom I always yearned for. Compared to the luxurious life I had in the Xiao family, I like my current life more. I feel very happy. So, please believe in me and my husband and don’t worry about us. We are doing great, really," she added.

After seeing her daughter’s firm eyes, Mother Xiao nodded and said, "As long as you are happy, Mother is content."

"Xirui, you know that your son-in-law is dependable. So, you should trust him more. Qingqing will have a good life following him," Mother Pan added from the side.

Mother Xiao smiled and nodded. She believed that her son-in-law was capable, but he was a soldier and would face countless dangers during his missions. Now, he has managed to come back from the brink of death.

Unlike his twin brother, Li Jingqian didn’t think too much and said, "Just be honest with me. Xiao Huang misses the third aunt’s cooking instead of the people, right?"

Dong Huang glared at her cousin and said, "I miss both my mother and my mother’s cooking."

Since the little girl had already admitted it, Li Jingqian stopped teasing her and said, "Well, we can only wait until your mother comes back. For now, you can only eat my mother’s cooking."

Afterward, he squatted in front of his cousin and said, "Climb up. Brother will carry you back."

Dong Huang looked at her cousin’s small shoulders and asked doubtfully, "Brother Jingqian, you won’t drop me, will you?"

Looking back, Li Jingqian replied, "Even if I’m younger than your brother and have a smaller body frame, I’m not weaker. My father started training my brother and me since we learned how to walk. Carrying you on my back is no problem at all."

Although Dong Huang still had doubts, she didn’t want to embarrass her cousin. So, she gritted her teeth and climbed onto his back. She thought her cousin would struggle to stand up, but unexpectedly, he stood up and walked with ease.

Holding onto her cousin’s shoulders, she asked, "Brother Jingqian, am I heavy?"

"Our family’s Xiao Huang is not heavy at all. You are as light as a feather. You should eat more and gain some weight," Li Jingqian said casually.
