Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 1310

Chapter 1310: Add Oil To The Fire ( 1 )
Wang Muxiao raised an eyebrow when she heard the old woman’s words and said, “Oh? So you dare to say it but don’t dare to admit it? Well, it’s understandable since you only dare to bully those weaker than you.”

The old woman was enraged and pointed at her, stammering, “You, you are—”

Before she could finish, Wang Muxiao cut her off. “What about me? Do you think everyone is blind or deaf?”

“In this ward, only my husband and I befriend a doctor. Only my husband is taking care of me and my children. Your words were clearly aimed at me. We have no grudge, yet your foul mouth keeps running like a stray dog.”

“I understand if you are jealous that I married into a good family and my husband loves me. But what does that have to do with you?”

“You are already so old and on your way to the coffin, yet your heart is still so dark, and your mouth is so vicious. Aren’t you afraid that when you die, no one will bury you?”

“If you keep staring at me and my family, believe it or not, I will gouge out your eyes and slap you until all your teeth fall out!”

Everyone was stunned by her words. The old woman was so shocked and furious that she gasped for breath. The young woman beside her was terrified when she saw her mother-in-law’s face turn as pale as paper.

Fearing she might faint or die from anger, the young woman quickly said, “Sister-in-law, I apologize to you. Please don’t lower yourself to my mother’s level.”

She thought that after saying this, Wang Muxiao would let the matter go. But who was Wang Muxiao?

If she didn’t peel off a layer of that old woman’s skin, how could she suppress her annoyance?

Not only did she not stop, but her words turned even nastier.

She looked at the young woman and said, “Sister-in-law, I see you have good hips and a strong figure. You must have good fortune in bearing sons. But from what that old hag said, it seems you don’t have a son.”

Hearing this, the young woman let out a long sigh and said, “I am fertile, but I only gave birth to daughters. I already have three daughters but no son.”

After she said this, Wang Muxiao clicked her tongue and said, “Sister-in-law, let me tell you. Having a son or daughter isn’t up to us—it all depends on our husbands.”

The young woman’s eyes flashed with surprise as she asked, “Sister-in-law, what do you mean?”

Wang Muxiao shook her head and asked with a sigh, “Take my family, for example. When everyone else wants a son, my family wants a daughter. Do you know why?”

Everyone looked confused. Seeing them shake their heads, Wang Muxiao continued, “That’s because my family always has sons but rarely daughters. In my mother-in-law’s family, she is the only daughter. In my father-in-law’s family, there are no daughters.”

“In my husband’s generation, among all his paternal relatives, there is only one daughter—my sister-in-law. Out of so many children, almost all are sons!”

“Then, there is a family where all the children are daughters. For three generations, only one son was born in their family. The strange thing is, their sons always marry daughters from families known for having lots of sons. Yet, they didn’t have sons.”

“So, you see, this is all your husband’s fault for not having a son. We, as women, only lend our wombs to carry our husband’s seed. If the seed is bad, no matter how good the soil is, the fruit will also be bad.”

After her long speech, she glanced at the old woman with a gloating smile and added, “I wonder if your father-in-law’s family also has the same issue—lots of daughters but rarely any sons. If that’s true, maybe your husband inherited your father-in-law’s problem.”

Just as she finished speaking, the old doctor entered the ward and said, “Comrade Wang, what you said is a possibility in the medical field. Although we don’t have solid evidence, several academic journals discuss the father’s DNA influencing the baby’s gender.”

Everyone was taken aback. If it had only been a village woman’s words, they could brush it off as nonsense. But since it came from a doctor, it suddenly sounded believable.

The old woman, furious at the doctor’s words, snapped, “You are talking nonsense! My son is destined to have many sons. This is clearly this bitch’s fault!”

Hearing her scolding the young woman, the doctor frowned and said, “Comrade, we are moving toward revolution. Superstition is banned. You should be careful with your words.”

The moment she heard the doctor’s words, Wang Muxiao added fuel to the fire. “That’s right. What’s more, our leader already said that women also can hold up half the sky. Whether it’s a son or a daughter, both are our children. You should change your patriarchal mindset!”

The old doctor nodded approvingly and said, “It’s rare to meet someone with such an open mind. Comrade Wang, well said.”

With the doctor supporting her, no one dared to refute Wang Muxiao’s words. Only the old woman sat there, suffocating with anger, glaring at her.

But with the doctor and nurses present, she could only swallow her fury and vent it on her daughter-in-law.

Being pinched by her mother-in-law, the young woman let out a yelp and asked, “Mother, what did I do wrong to make you so angry?”

“Just looking at your useless face already makes me angry! Cry, continue to cry!” the old woman said while pinching her daughter-in-law’s soft flesh on the side of her stomach.

Seeing how angry her mother-in-law was, the young woman didn’t dare to let out a sob. She bit her lip to endure the pain. When she was about to faint from it, someone suddenly pulled the old woman away.

“Mother, what are you doing?!”

Upon hearing the familiar voice, she raised her head and saw her husband looking at his mother with disbelief.

“Husband, why are you here?” she asked hoarsely.
