Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 114

Chapter 114: Delicate and Sickly Wife ( 2 )
When everyone was chatting, Zhang Dongmei noticed that Lu Jueyu didn’t say much and kept her head down unlike usual. It seems that she wants to reduce her presence. At first, she thought Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu had a quarrel. But when she saw Li Chenmo being so attentive to his wife, she was a little confused until she heard Li Chenxuan’s words and saw Jiao Siyu’s eyes.

“Third sister-in-law, are you feeling unwell? Why do you lower your head?” Li Chenxuan asked softly, with a hint of worry.

Zhang Dongmei frowned when she heard Li Chenxuan’s tone. For a brother-in-law, his tone and words were too attentive. She glanced at Lu Jueyu and saw that she ignored Li Chenxuan and turned to Li Chenmo instead.

After a while, Li Chenmo looked at Li Chenxuan and said, “Second brother, my wife is timid, so please don’t disturb her.”

After saying this, Li Chenmo held Lu Jueyu’s hand and said, “Father, I will take Jueyu to my room to have a rest first.”

Father Li glanced at Li Chenxuan with a frown and nodded.

Lu Jueyu entered Li Chenmo’s room and closed the door, while Li Chenmo went to the backyard to check the woodshed and kitchen. He went to repair the broken fence and fill the water tank in the kitchen.

After they left, Jiao Siyu sneered and said, “I don’t know how the third brother is going to spend the rest of his life with such a delicate and sickly wife.”

Zhang Dongmei frowned and said, “Second sister-in-law, even Father said nothing. What right do you have to comment on how the third brother is living his life? Everyone can see how good the third brother and his wife’s relationship is. So you and your husband don’t need to worry about them. I believe the third brother knows what is best for himself.”

Jiao Siyu looked at Zhang Dongmei and said with a smile, “I was wondering why is my sister-in-law so talkative all of a sudden? It seems that you have received a lot of benefits from our new sister-in-law, so you can’t wait to say good things about her.”

Zhang Dongmei chuckled lightly and said with a smile, “Who are you putting an act for? Don’t you also enjoy the same benefits as me? I heard that the second brother even went to see the third brother personally.”

Jiao Siyu felt that her mask was torn away by Zhang Dongmei, and felt very embarrassed. She shouted angrily, “What nonsense are you talking about? Sister-in-law, don’t think that just because you are my eldest sister-in-law, I will allow you to humiliate me like this. ”

This time, Zhang Dongmei stopped talking and drank tea calmly, ignoring her words.

Being so blatantly ignored, Jiao Siyu cried in anger. She turned to look at Father Li and asked, “Father, are you just going to watch my sister-in-law humiliate me? Am I not your daughter-in-law?”

Father Li sighed, put down his tea cup, and said, “You have been arguing with everyone for a year. Aren’t you tired? Can we at least spend New Year’s Eve in peace?”

“Father, you can’t be so biased. My sister-in-law bullies my wife, how can you say such things to my wife instead?” Li Chenxuan said suddenly.

Li Chenze glanced at him and said, “Second brother, isn’t it your wife who bullies others? Why didn’t you say anything when your wife talked about our third brother’s wife? No matter how delicate our third brother’s wife is, it has nothing to do with us. We have no right to say anything. After all, it is not you who has a delicate wife, nor is it your wife.”

Father Li watched his sons and daughters-in-law quarreling and sighed. He shook his head and said, “I’m going to see your uncle.”

After saying that, Father Li left the house. Li Chenze glanced at Li Chenxuan and Jiao Siyu coldly, then walked to the backyard. Zhang Dongmei went to Father Li’s room to check on his sons. Li Jingqian and Li Jingxu both slept in Father Li’s room, unaware that their parents were quarreling with their uncle and aunt.

When they were alone, Jiao Siyu glared at Li Chenxuan and said, “Look how good your family is. If I knew we were not welcome, I wouldn’t have come today. It’s better to go to my parents’ house for New Year’s Eve dinner.”

Li Chenxuan was already unhappy with what Li Chenze and Li Chenmo said. So, when he heard his wife’s words, he went out without saying anything. Seeing that he just left her alone, Jiao Siyu stamped her feet before leaving to find her friends.

In Li Chenmo’s room, Lu Jueyu was peeling peanuts while listening to their quarrel. She wanted to make some garlic roasted peanuts for Li Chenmo later. This snack is great to have with some chrysanthemum wine.

After peeling the peanuts, she went to her own space to wash her hands, took out two bags of milk candies, and then left her own space. After Lu Jueyu came out, she went to find Zhang Dongmei. When she came to Father Li’s room, she saw that the children were already awake.

Seeing her arrival, Li Jingqian and Li Jingxu blinked a few times and greeted her in a sweet voice, “Third Aunt.”

For a moment, Lu Jueyu felt like her heart had been shot by Cupid’s arrow, and she was overwhelmed by their cuteness. She walked up to them, touched their heads, and said, “So obedient. These candies are for Xiaoqian and Xiaoxu.”

When Zhang Dongmei saw that Lu Jueyu gave two bags of milk candies to her sons, she quickly said, “Sister-in-law, you have already given them so much candy and milk powder. You should keep this for yourself.”

After hearing what their mother said, the children did not dare to take the candy and could only watch with their eyes wide open.

Lu Jueyu smiled and said, “Sister-in-law, this is nothing special.”
