As soon as Lu Jueyu entered the house, she saw Father Li coming out of the bedroom while helping Li Chenmo. Seeing her coming, Li Chenmo's eyes lit up.
"Jueyu, come in quickly." Li Chenmo waved to her. If it weren't for his leg injury , he might have walked toward her.
Seeing that he was in a good mood, Lu Jueyu also felt that she was in a better mood. She put the bamboo basket on the table and said, "Uncle Li, Brother Chenmo, I made some braised pork for dinner. You two should eat more."
When she put the food on the table, Father Li was stunned. He knew that his son had given all the money to Lu Jueyu and let her use it as she wished. But he never expected that she would actually use the money to buy rice and meat. Looking at the portion size, it was enough for four adults. What a waste to eat white rice and so much meat all at once. It's better to save it for the new year.
Father Li suddenly remembered the rumors about Lu Jueyu and glanced at her. Although he was very upset about her spending money like this, as a man, he restrained himself and said nothing. He considers it a blessing that his wife is no longer around. With his wife's temper, if she sees his future daughter-in-law being so wasteful, there might be a big scene.
Father Li looked at his son and saw that he was smiling all the time, so he chose to close his eyes. As long as they are happy, he, as a father, will not interfere with their lives. After all, his sons are all grown up and they can make their own decisions.
When Li's father was full of dilemma, Li Chenmo was very happy when he saw the dishes. He wasn't afraid of her wasting his money, but he was afraid that she wouldn't want to use his money. Now that she was willing to spend his money, he doesn't have to worry too much about her changing her mind. If it was possible, he wanted to spoil her until she could no longer live without him.
Not knowing what they were thinking, Lu Jueyu served them a bowl of rice and a bowl of soup. She handed them the chopsticks and said, "Uncle Li, Brother Chenmo, please try it quickly, see if it suits your taste."
Although his mouth was already watering when he smelled the aroma of braised pork, Li Chenmo drank the egg soup first and then tasted the meat. The moment he tried the meat, his eyes widened in surprise.
Although he knew that Lu Jueyu's cooking skills were great, he was still surprised when he tasted today's dishes. Because he was injured, she only cooked some light dishes for him. Therefore, it was his first time trying such a delicious dish.
Although it is not suitable to eat greasy and heavy flavored food because of the injury, Lu Jueyu thinks it is okay to eat it occasionally. What's more, she used the water in the space to make these dishes. So, it should be fine.
If Father Li thought the food was too much for two people before, after tasting it, he felt that the food was perfect. Both he and his son can eat two bowls of rice. For the first time after the Great Famine, Father Li finally had a full belly.
They finished eating in less than twenty minutes, which made Lu Jueyu a little worried. Eating too fast was not good for their digestive system, so she made some tea to help them digest their food. After she finished clearing the table, Father Li went back to his room to rest.
Sitting beside Li Chenmo, Lu Jueyu said, "Brother Chenmo, in a few days, my brothers will come to build waterways. In the future, we can use mountain spring water instead of well water."
"En." He listened to her and nodded.
Just as she was about to leave, Li Chenmo said, "Jueyu, my father will visit your parents tomorrow."
She looked at him questioningly and asked, "What's the matter?"
"It's about our wedding. You've been going back and forth between our houses to take care of me since I got back. It's winter and it's getting colder every day. I think it's best to hold our marriage earlier. After marriage, it will be much more convenient. What do you think about this?"
Lu Jueyu was surprised by his thoughts. Although she had decided to live in the moment and not think about the heroine, she was caught off guard when he suddenly wanted to advance the wedding date.
Seeing her surprised expression, Li Chenmo quickly added, "If you disagree, we can follow our original plan. It's just that I'm afraid you'll catch a cold and get sick, so you don't have to cook for me during this time. My father can take care of my food."
Hearing this, Lu Jueyu suddenly blurted out with a frown, "It won't do."
Li Chenmo was taken aback, and asked, "Jueyu, what do you mean?"
When she came back to her senses, she hurriedly said, "I don't mean anything else. It's just that you need to replenish your health. You need balanced nutrients, so it's better for me to cook for you. "
Li Chenmo looked at her and fell silent. After a while, he shook his head and said, "No. I promise to take care of my body, so you don't have to worry about me. I don't want you to get sick while taking care of me. What should I do if something happens to you?"
Lu Jueyu saw that she couldn't negotiate with him as he had already made up his mind and refused to compromise. She didn't expect him to be so stubborn, and she was annoyed. They glanced at each other, neither willing to back down. In the end, she still failed to win against him, and said helplessly, "Alright. I will listen to you."

Li Chenmo's eyes lit up, he tried hard to hold back his joy, and asked probingly, "That means you agree with me?"
Lu Jueyu glanced at him, and asked him back, "Did you give me another choice? Your health is the most important."
Hearing her words, he was overjoyed, and finally couldn't help it, and let out a low laugh. Seeing him laughing foolishly, she couldn't get angry even if she was annoyed. So she could only say helplessly, "Come on. I will help you back to the room."
Li Chenmo knew it was time to stop. So, he nodded and obediently went back to his room. After she covered him with the quilt, he took her hand and put a pair of red hair clips in her palm.
"I bought this for you. Do you like it?" He asked.
For her, this kind of antique is very interesting. While this design is old fashioned for her, it is the latest design in this day and age and quite expensive. She held the hair clips and said, "I like it. Thank you Brother Chenmo."
"Is it expensive? I heard from my second sister-in-law that this kind of hair clip cost a lot of money," she added.
Li Chenmo shook his head and said, "It's not expensive. As long as you like it."
"I will cherish it," she said with a smile.
Because of this gift, her annoyance disappeared instantly. The two chatted for a while before she went home.
The next day, Lu Han and Lu Cheng went to the mountains to gather more bamboo to build a waterway for the Li family. At noon, Father Li came with the matchmaker and Li Chenmo's brothers. Because the matter discussed was related to her, Lu Jueyu stayed in her room. Feeling bored, she locked the door and entered her space.
Lu Jueyu went to the warehouse to get some wool and started knitting a few sweaters, scarves, gloves, socks, and even stomach warmers. She picked out a few festive shades of sorrel, soft pink and light green for her mother, sisters-in-law and niece. For the man and her nephew, she chose black, dark blue, dark green and brown.
She actually wanted to choose light blue for Li Chenmo, but in this day and age, this color is not available. If she used a color that wasn't available in this era, it would raise questions. So she can only choose these boring colors.
Since the time in the space is different from the outside, she can knit slowly while eating snacks. Before she knew it, she had spent hours in her space finishing up several pairs of gloves. She used to make these things to sell in her previous life. Every Valentine's Day or Christmas, she receives many orders. Not only is her product reasonably priced, but her workmanship is also very good. It was better than what is sold in the store.
After leaving the space, she listened to the conversation outside and found that Father Li hadn't left yet. So, she entered her own space again and continued to knit. When she came out again, the sun had already started to set.
Lu Jueyu was startled, and went to the kitchen. When she entered the kitchen, her sisters-in-law had already prepared dinner. After seeing her, they didn't say anything but asked her to help bring out the food. After finishing her dinner in a hurry, she went to Li's house.
Fortunately, when she was in her own space, she had already prepared dinner for Li Chenmo. So, she just needs to bring it over. Because of the cold weather, she boiled medicinal chicken soup for him to keep him warm. Besides soup, she also made salmon steak and some fruit salad. She put a lot of vegetables in the chicken soup so didn't make any more vegetable dishes, and just served it with white rice.
When she arrived at Li's house, Father Li had already eaten and hadn't returned from his elder brother's house. So, Li Chenmo was the only one left in the house. Lu Jueyu entered his room and put the food on the table. She pursed her lips and found that he was not in a good mood.
She sat on the Kang bed and asked, "What's the matter? Why are you ignoring me?"
Li Chenmo glanced at her, and said in a low voice, "You haven't come to visit me since morning."
"Am I not here now?" She asked confusedly.
He didn't speak and just looked at her. Just when she felt the need to coax him, she heard him say, "Jueyu, I miss you. Before, I thought it would be fine if we didn't meet before we got married. But when I don't see you for several hours, I feel uneasy and uncomfortable. I keep telling myself that it doesn't matter if you don't come, because you may be busy. But when I hear people talking about your relationship with another man, I can't help feeling angry and worried."
"Jueyu, do you think there is something wrong with me?" He asked after being silent for a while.
She was taken aback by his straightforward confession. Unknowingly, she blushed. Even the tips of her ears and neck were red. This man is a clingy and possessive boyfriend type ah!
This situation really caught her off guard, he was not like this in the original plot. He should be a gentle and indifferent male protagonist who is never jealous. Who is this aggrieved man who looks like a bullied little wife?!
"You… how can you say these words so directly?" She stammered shyly and looked away.
Li Chenmo didn't feel that what he said was wrong. These words are his sincere feelings. He knows he shouldn't be like this, but he just can't help it. When he thought of her getting so close to other men, he had a feeling of wanting to kill someone. Not to mention others, even himself, were frightened by his possessiveness. Not seeing her since the morning, countless memories that didn't belong to this lifetime flooded into his mind.
