Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 222
Chapter 222: I’m Yours
“If you don’t know how to speak, don’t speak. What do you mean by those words? Do you mean that my cousin-in-law has slept with that shameless woman?” Wu Huning pointed at the woman and said with a frown.
“I didn’t mean anything else, it was you who said it this way.” The woman sneered.
Before Wu Huning could retort, Lu Jueyu said, “Aunty, you don’t have to worry about my husband’s matter. Whether he has slept with other women or not, as his wife, I know best.”
After everyone heard this, they finally shut up and continued eating. Lu Jueyu nodded to Wu Huning and continued eating. No one cares about Su Anna’s feelings. Since she dares to approach a married man in broad daylight, she should be prepared to be laughed at.
Although the customs today are not as strict as during the dynastic period, and a woman can remarry even after her husband dies, reputation is still important, especially for unmarried women. Therefore, when the villagers saw Su Anna being shameless and blatantly seducing other people’s husbands, they all looked down upon her.
Under the gazes and ridicule of the villagers, Su Anna lowered her head and walked away. When she walked past Li Chenmo and Lu Jueyu, she raised her head, hoping that Li Chenmo could say something to defend her.
Seeing Su Anna looking at her husband again, Lu Jueyu said coldly, “Su Anna, if you dare to look at my husband like that again, don’t blame me for gouging out your eyes! Li Chenmo is my husband, I won’t allow anyone to covet him!”
Su Anna was surprised when she heard her words. When she looked into Lu Jueyu’s eyes, she felt a chill running down her spine. It can be seen that Lu Jueyu means what she said. It seemed that if she took another look at Li Chenmo, her eyes would be gouged out on the spot. Fear arose in her heart, her face turned pale, and she ran away quickly.
Li Chenmo handed her a cup of lemon tea and said with a smile, “Wife, don’t be angry. I’m yours, no one can covet me. Don’t worry.”
Lu Jueyu snorted at her husband’s words but still took the cup. After taking a sip of lemon tea, she said, “Husband, you must keep your word. If you dare to lie to me, you will sleep on the floor from now on.”
“Okay, as long as you don’t kick me out of your bedroom, I’m willing to sleep on the floor.”
Lu Jueyu was speechless by her husband’s shamelessness, and finally gave in, “Husband, you are so thick-skinned. I admit defeat.”
After hearing his wife’s words, Li Chenmo let out a chuckle and said, “Wife, I can never win against you. You know that.”
He looked at his wife and found her very cute. He felt itchy in his heart and wanted to kiss her deeply. But because the time and place were wrong, he could only endure it and wait for the night when the two of them were alone.
After lunch, Lu Jueyu did not go home as usual but sat there chatting with her husband.
“Husband, Father asked me to accompany you to his house tonight. Do you know what happened?” she asked.
After a while, Li Chenmo said, “I heard that my second brother came to visit my father this morning. I guess this matter has something to do with Jiao Siyu’s mother.”
“Jiao Siyu’s mother?” Lu Jueyu asked.
“Didn’t I suggest that my second brother asked his mother-in-law to take care of his wife?” Li Chenmo asked.
“Yes.” She nodded.
“Judging from the character of Jiao Siyu’s mother, she must make a request to my second brother when he asks her to take care of Jiao Siyu. This request is either about money or food. My second brother must come to my father for help.” Li Chenmo added.
“Husband, why are you so sure?” Lu Jueyu asked.
Li Chenmo looked at her and smiled, “It’s easy to guess when you know what they want most. My second brother is greedy for money, fame, and women. Although the Jiao family is arrogant and domineering, they are also greedy for fame and fortune. Since both parties love money, they will take advantage of Jiao Siyu’s situation to get more money from us.”
Lu Jueyu was stunned by his words and said, “Jiao Siyu is just a relative of ours, but she is your second brother’s wife and the daughter of the Jiao family. How can they ask us for money to take care of their own families?”
“Not everyone has the same thoughts as you. For some people, there is no family, only interests. As long as they can get benefits, they will even use their families as tools.” Li Chenmo said, touching his wife’s head.
Lu Jueyu was stunned by his words. She feels that people in this era are more honest than modern people. It turns out that no matter what era, as long as there is greed, people’s behavior will be the same.
Seeing his wife’s expression, Li Chenmo took her hand, squeezed it gently and said, “Okay, don’t worry about it. If their request is not unreasonable, we can help satisfy it.”
“I just feel sorry for Jiao Siyu for having such a husband and family. She is such a pitiful person.” Lu Jueyu sighed.
After saying that, she looked at her husband and said, “I’m lucky to have you as my husband. Otherwise, my end might be even worse than Jiao Siyu’s.”
Li Chenmo didn’t know that his wife was talking about the ending of the original soul in the original novel, and thought that his wife was still affected by Su Anna’s incident just now. He held her hand tightly and said, “I will be your husband in this life and in the afterlife.”

Lu Jueyu smiled at him and held his hand tightly. After her lunch break, she packed away the bamboo basket and kettles. Before leaving, she looked at him and said, “Husband, I prepared some fruit slices for you. You should eat them when you are tired to replenish energy.”
