Capítulo 39: Chapter 39: Wives Are to Be Cherished

It was already half-past nine by the time they finished breakfast.

Xia Yuan bustled about preparing to make dumplings, as well as boiling water and slaughtering a chicken.

The dough was already made. Shitou hijacked the task of slaughtering the chicken, so Xia Yuan had no choice but to deal with the cabbage and meat. She was about to chop the dumpling filling when Lu Aiguo called out loudly, "Wife, you go boil the water. Leave the meat chopping to me, it's strenuous. You just cut the cabbage and get ready to make dumplings."

"Chopping meat filling is a trivial task, how could it exhaust me?" Xia Yuan couldn't help but laugh, intending to push Lu Aiguo aside and chop the filling herself, "You go boil the water; I got this."

"Be good, listen to me, you don't have enough strength to chop the meat. It won't be chopped finely and won't taste good."
