Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 456
Chapter 456: Clingy Husband
Not knowing that the members of the Chen family had already planned to distance themselves from the first branch family, Gou Dan said arrogantly, “Besides, aren’t the sons of the second and third branch also going to school? They can study hard and help me, the head of the family, in the future. I don’t mind letting them run the household as long as they listen to me.”
Grandpa Chen was so angry that he felt dizzy after hearing what he said. Seeing him swaying, his wife quickly supported him and exclaimed, “Old Chen!”
After closing his eyes for a moment, Grandpa Chen finally calmed down. Opening his eyes, he looked at his eldest grandson with disappointment and said with anger clear in his voice, “Kneel down in front of your ancestors and reflect on your behaviors! When you know what you did wrong and decide to apologize, only then you are allowed to stand up!”
“Father!” Gou Dan’s mother exclaimed in disbelief the moment she heard his words.
Before she could plead for her son, Grandpa Chen glared at her and added, “If you say another word, you will stay with your son!”
When Gou Dan’s mother heard what he said, she didn’t dare to say a word.
Seeing his useless daughter-in-law, Grandpa Chen regretted his decision to let his eldest son marry this woman. He waved his hand and left the ancestral hall, followed by the rest of the Chen family.
When only Gou Dan and his mother were left in the ancestral hall, Gou Dan said, “Mother, I will never apologize! I have told them many times that I want their food, but they refuse to give it to me and even beat me. It’s clearly their fault, why must I apologize to them now?”
Seeing her son’s back covered with wounds and bloodstains, Gou Dan’s mother sobbed and said, “Son, your mother will definitely find a way to avenge you. Now, you shouldn’t resist your grandfather.”
Feeling the pain in his back, Gou Dan hissed, “Mother, can you ask Doctor Xie to help me treat the wound? It hurts like hell.”
“Alright, mother will go to invite Doctor Xie. You must be strong and wait for your mother.”
After saying that, Gou Dan’s mother left the ancestral hall to find Doctor Xie.
When he was alone, Gou Dan stopped kneeling and sat on the mat. While checking his bruised knees, he scolded Dong Li and his grandfather, “Damn old man, when I become the clan patriarch, you will be the first person I deal with. Dong Li, you bastard, let’s see how I deal with you when my father comes back.”
In the afternoon, Lu Jueyu went to visit her parents and informed her sisters-in-law about her plan regarding their business. Before leaving the house, she went to her bedroom and entered her own space. Since the Lu family had separated, she prepared three packages for her parents and brothers.
She packed two bottles of tonic wine, five bottles of Yunnan Baiyao, a bottle of sesame oil, a bottle of oyster sauce, a bottle of maple syrup, a jar of wild honey, two jars of meat sauce, a kilogram of pork sausage, half a kilogram of beef jerky, a kilogram of fruit slices, a bottle of peanut oil, a can of milk powder, five peaches, twenty eggs, and some vegetables.
She also added two new sets of clothes for her parents, two kilograms of mixed fried nuts, and a bottle of rice wine. Her father liked to treat her uncles to drinks, so she added these for him.
After preparing the gifts, she left her space and went to find her husband. At this time, Li Chenmo was teaching their adopted children in the living room.
“Husband, I’m going to visit my parents and inform my sister-in-law.” Lu Jueyu said.
Li Chenmo looked at his wife and said, “I’ll go with you.”
“Husband, there is no need to accompany me, I’ll just go by myself,” Lu Jueyu said with a smile.
Hearing her words, Li Chenmo frowned. But before he could say anything, Lu Jueyu added, “Husband, don’t worry. Nothing will happen to me in broad daylight. I’ll be back in two hours at the latest.”
Thinking that there were many villagers chatting outside, Li Chenmo finally nodded and said, “Alright then. Be careful on the road.”
Because there were children there, Lu Jueyu just nodded to him and said, “Okay.”
Seeing her leaving without giving him a kiss, Li Chenmo glanced at their adopted children and sighed.
Seeing that his adoptive father’s mood suddenly deteriorated as soon as his adoptive mother left the house, the corner of Dong Li’s lips were raised. After living together, he found that his adoptive father was somewhat cute. Maybe this is what people call a clingy husband?
Lu Jueyu rode her bicycle and left home with the gifts. The villagers couldn’t help but shake their heads when they saw the package tied to the back seat and in the front basket of the bicycle. Judging from the way she spends money on food and snacks every time she goes back to her parents’ house, her family may have very little savings left.
Lu Jueyu was used to the villagers’ judging gaze and behavior. So, she didn’t feel anything even when she heard a woman say, “Aiya, what’s the use of a beautiful wife if she only knows how to spend money? I bet that her family will have nothing to eat by the end of the year.”
When the villagers heard this, they thought Lu Jueyu would be angry and even stop to argue with the woman. Unexpectedly, she just rode past them without even looking at them. They were all stunned to see how calm she was.
After riding for fifteen minutes, Lu Jueyu arrived at her parents’ house. She opened the door, walked in, and parked her bicycle by the well. She untied the packages from her bicycle and carried them into the house.
