Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife
Chapter 1544 - 1544: Meat Distribution Day ( 1 )

When he heard Li Chenmo's words, Old Gu said, "We want to, but without a special recommendation letter, we can't leave this place or visit the hospital."

"Then let's send him to Doctor Xie's house," Li Chenmo said as he carried Old Zhao on his back.

Hearing this, Old Su said, "I will go inform the team leader."

"Okay, we will accompany Old Zhao," Old Gu nodded.

Li Chenmo carried Old Zhao out and placed him on the bicycle's cart. Seeing this, Old Su and Old Gu quickly covered him with their tattered old jackets to keep his body warm.

Without waiting for them, Li Chenmo quickly drove to Doctor Xie's house. While helping these people might implicate him and his family, life was at stake and he couldn't hesitate.

Thirty minutes later, they finally arrived at Doctor Xie's house. The moment he parked his bicycle, he carried Old Zhao into the house while shouting, "Doctor Xie, come quickly!"

Doctor Xie was napping in his bedroom when he heard the shouting and came out hurriedly. Seeing him carrying an old man, he said, "Put him on the bamboo bed."

Soon after, he opened his medical bag and checked on Old Zhao's condition. After a moment, he gave him an injection and said, "We have to wait for half an hour to monitor his condition. If the fever doesn't go down, we'll have to send him to the hospital to get an IV."

Li Chenmo nodded and replied, "Thank you for your help, Doctor Xie."

Waving his hand, Doctor Xie said, "You're usually not the kind of person who interferes with other people's matters. What's wrong with you today? Why did you suddenly have the heart to care about these people?"

Hearing his words, Li Chenmo said, "I was just passing by when I heard people shouting, so I went to check the situation."

Nodding at his words, Doctor Xie said, "His condition is not good, so it's better for him to take western medicine."

"Comrade Xie, how much is the cost?" Old Gu asked.

Doctor Xie glanced at him and said, "We are old acquaintances, there is no need to pay."

Knowing how expensive the medicine was, Old Gu said, "How could that be?"

Before the two of them could argue about the fee, Li Chenmo said, "I will pay for it. It's my wife's instruction."

After saying so, he took out twenty yuan from his pocket and handed it to Doctor Xie. Since someone was willing to pay, he didn't refuse and accepted the money.

He prepared a bottle of fever medicine and a bottle of cold medicine before he said, "Let him take this medicine three times a day after meals."

Not long after, Old Su returned with Han Yuheng. Seeing him come in, Li Chenmo stood up and said, "Since the team leader is here, I will go back now."

"Thank you, young man," Old Gu said while holding onto his hand tightly.

If not for his help, they would have had to watch their friend pass away helplessly.

After he explained the situation to Han Yuheng, Li Chenmo rode his bicycle and returned home.

The snow only stopped for a day before it resumed falling heavily. Due to the heavy snow, more than fifty houses collapsed, and lots of orphans and elderly were frozen to death, if not buried under the collapsed houses.

This year's winter was the harshest in the past decade. With the number of casualties increasing, the production team staff could only send more people to check on the villagers and relocate them to avoid further disasters.

More than three weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and the day for meat distribution finally arrived. Today was February 8th, 1975, three days before the Lunar New Year.

At this moment, Lu Jueyu's pregnancy was entering the 29th week, and her belly was so big that it was alarming.

Early in the morning after breakfast, Li Chenmo held his wife's hand and said, "Wife, you just stay at home with Xiao Huang. Ah Li and I will go get our meat."

Hearing this, Lu Jueyu pouted and said, "Husband, I have been staying at home for so many months. Now that my pregnancy has already entered the last trimester, if I don't go out for a walk now, I will have to wait until I finish my postpartum period."

Li Chenmo looked at his wife's big belly and said worriedly, "But the road is slippery and the weather is cold. What if you slip and fall?"

Due to her pregnancy, Lu Jueyu's emotions were unstable. She often cried suddenly whenever she thought that her husband cared more about the babies in her belly than about her.

While her husband always said that she was the most important, she still couldn't believe his words. Right now, she felt the sadness again after hearing her husband's words.

She pushed away his hands and said, "You only care about the babies in my belly and no longer care about me. I'm bored. I want to go out!"

Li Chenmo was feeling a headache when he saw his wife throwing a tantrum. He didn't know what he should do to make her believe him. For him, she was the most important, yet no matter how many times he told her, she didn't believe him.

Thinking about the book he read about pregnancy symptoms in his past life, he let out a sigh and coaxed her, "Alright, it's my fault. Don't be angry, okay?"

Lu Jueyu turned her head away and said with a snort, "You always say that but you don't change at all."

Li Chenmo smiled and replied helplessly, "I will listen to you this time."

The moment she heard this, Lu Jueyu's eyes lit up and her tears stopped instantly. She turned to look at her husband and asked, "So, I can go join the fun?"

Li Chenmo nodded and said, "But you have to stay with me all the time."

Lu Jueyu nodded and leaned in to kiss his cheek. "Okay!"
