Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 459
Chapter 459: What a Shame
After playing with the children for a while, Lu Jueyu went to help Chen Anwen harvest vegetables. Since they used pig manure as fertilizer, the vegetables grew faster and more luxuriantly than usual. While other people’s vegetables are still growing, their vegetables are ready for harvest.
Unlike Lu Jueyu, who grows many vegetables, the Lu family’s yard grows corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes, chinese spinach, bitter melons, and chili peppers.
At the moment, Chinese spinach and chili peppers are ready for harvest, while the rest will have to wait until summer. Although they don’t grow a lot, these can be added to their food ration so they have enough to eat until next year’s harvest.
While Lu Jueyu was helping her sister-in-law, Li Chenmo was watering the production team’s farmland in the North area. Lately, the river levels have dropped due to hot temperatures, and northern farmland is farther from the river, so irrigation channels receive less water from the river.
He carried two buckets at once and watered the area he was responsible for. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and saw Han Yuheng talking to a woman behind the tree.
At first, he didn’t think much about it. But when he saw Han Yuheng giving the woman some money and the woman touching his body indecently, Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows. When the woman turned around, he saw her face and a knowing smile appeared on his face.
If he remembered correctly, that woman was the wife of Han Yuheng’s late cousin. She was also the one who spread the rumors about her relationship with his second brother.
Thinking of the little girl he saw in the hospital, Li Chenmo’s eyes flashed with realization. That woman was the little girl’s mother, but instead of taking care of her daughter, she hooked up with her cousin-in-law.
Li Chenmo touched his chin, thinking how great it would be if he had a mobile phone now. Without advanced technology, he could not record their extramarital affair as evidence against Han Yuheng.
“What a shame,” he muttered.
Han Yuheng didn’t know that someone was watching them. He grabbed Sheng Xiaohong’s hand that was groping his body and asked, “Sheng Xiaohong, what exactly do you want?”
Sheng Xiaohong raised her eyes to glanced at him, chuckled, and said coquettishly, “Yuheng, I didn’t expect you to have such a good figure. No wonder that bitch keeps looking for you.”
Han Yuheng looked at her and said with disgust in his tone, “Compared with my woman, you are nothing. You should not covet things beyond your abilities.”
Despite his words and disgust, Sheng Xiaohong did not feel offended. She leaned against him and placed her hands on his chest. She reached her hands to his lower body and whispered in his ear, “Don’t you want to try? I’m much better than that bitch.”
Before her hand touched his lower body, Han Yuheng pushed her away and said, “Sheng Xiaohong, I will never touch a slutty woman like you. Only a stupid man like my late cousin who is willing to marry a woman like you. Who knows how many men have tasted your body?”
This time, Sheng Xiaohong was angered by his words. But before she could speak, Han Yuheng said again, “You’d better stay away from me, otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
After threatening her, he strode away. Sheng Xiaohong was pushed to the ground by Han Yuheng and felt the pain on her waist. When she looked up, she found a man looking at her thoughtfully.
She thought the man was Li Lingyun at first, but upon closer inspection, she found that the man was younger than him. She pushed herself up, stood up, and patted her clothes. Before leaving, she smiled and winked at Li Chenmo.
When he saw her smile and meaningful gaze, Li Chenmo narrowed his eyes. No wonder his second brother moved to Xie village to avoid her. She was indeed disgusting and everything she did made him want to forget his upbringing and punch her, especially when she looked at him with that lustful hint in her eyes.
At the same time, at the entrance of the village, Father and Mother Su were standing on the roadside with their luggage.
Mother Su looked at her husband and said, “Husband, will it bring trouble to Anna if we show up without notification like this?”
After hearing what his wife said, Father Su said, “It won’t. Anna is our daughter, and it is reasonable for us to visit her. As long as we pretend to be fools and insist on staying, her husband cannot drive us away.”
“How can you be so sure?” Mother Su asked.
“Bohan has already asked his friends in the military about Li Chenmo. Everyone praised him as a generous, loyal, hardworking, and brave person. He is also polite and filial toward his father. With this kind of son-in-law, we won’t have to worry that he would drive us away and not give us food and drink.” Father Su said with a satisfied smile.
Mother Su nodded and smiled, “What you said makes sense. It’s just that Anna didn’t even tell us where she lives in her letter. Now, we can only ask the villagers where Li Chenmo’s house is.”
“Then let’s ask. We are his parents-in-law, and there is nothing wrong with us going to see him.” Father Su said as he picked up his luggage and walked towards the village.
Seeing that her husband had already walked away, Mother Su quickly picked up her luggage and chased after him, “Hey, wait for me. Why are you walking so fast?”
Not long after, they saw a group of villagers sitting under a banyan tree, drinking tea, eating roasted nuts, mending clothes, and chatting. Seeing them, Father Su and Mother Su quickened their pace and walked towards them.
The villagers saw the two strangers approaching and observed them curiously. It is rare for villagers to own leather shoes, let alone for daily wear. Judging from their clothes and leather shoes, they should be people from towns or cities.
