Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 492
Chapter 492: Surrounded
Aunt Lin was also happy and asked Liu Hua’s parents, “Brother-in-law, Sister-in-law, do you have any requirements regarding the betrothal gift?”
Father Liu shook his head and said, “We don’t have any requirements. Just follow the rules.”
After hearing his words, Aunt Lin hesitated. Although it seemed like the Liu family didn’t ask anything, it was actually more difficult than them saying what they wanted. They don’t know what their taboos are, and if they prepare incorrectly, this matter can lead to disaster on the day of the proposal.
“This…”
Seeing her hesitation, Mother Liu understood that her husband’s unintentional words had put Aunt Lin in a difficult situation.
“Since my sister-in-law asked, I will not hesitate to make the request. My Liu family has many relatives, and we want 90 packages of wedding cakes. Moreover, we also have great-grandmother, so we also want grandmother cakes.” Mother Liu said with a smile .
Although they demand a lot of wedding cakes, Aunt Lin knew that there were indeed many relatives in the Liu family, so she readily agreed, “No problem. We will add grandma’s cake.”
“In addition, we also want 18 oranges, a pair of pig’s trotters, a red envelope of 18 yuan, a diaper money of 68 yuan, two pairs of red candles, and two bottles of wine.” Mother Liu added.
Aunt Lin nodded after hearing her request. The red envelope plus diaper money totaled 86 yuan, which was an auspicious number. She nodded and asked, “Sister-in-law, how many wedding cakes and oranges will you give us back later?”
Mother Liu thought for a while and said, “We will return 2 packages of wedding cakes and 6 oranges.”
Aunt Lin counted them, nodded, and said, “Okay, we will meet your request.”
Just when they thought everything had been solved, Xiao Li suddenly said, “Aunt Liu, I heard that the Huang family also prepared a bicycle and a radio.”
Father Liu and Mother Liu understood what he meant and smiled.
“Ah Li, you don’t need to give us a bicycle or a radio. Just preparing the gifts as per custom is enough,” Mother Liu said with a smile.
Hearing what she said, Xiao Li knew that they were worried that he would not have money to buy those items, so they didn’t want to make it hard for him. Although he appreciated their consideration for him, he did not want Liu Hua to be wronged.
If the news of the Huang family’s cancellation of the engagement spread, everyone would laugh at her. If the bride price for her marriage with him is less, the villagers would definitely spread bad rumors about her. Therefore, even if the Liu family did not ask for it, he would try his best to prepare it for her.
Thinking of the thick envelope Li Lingyun gave him before and the industrial coupons given to him this morning, Xiao Li made up his mind. In addition to a bicycle and a radio, he would also buy her watches and a pair of leather shoes. This way, no one can laugh at her anymore.
As long as he works hard, he is confident that he can pay off his debts.
While the Liu family, Xiao Li, and others were chatting happily, a group of women surrounded the Gao family’s house.
Outside the fence, a middle-aged woman pointed at the house and shouted angrily, “Su Anna, you shameless bitch! Come out!”
When the neighbors heard the commotion, they came out of their homes one after another with curious looks on their faces. When they saw a group of women outside Gao’s house, they knew something was wrong.
Inside the house, Su Anna panicked when she saw those women. She could guess why they were looking for her since she knew their husbands. She racked her brain, trying to remember whether she had left a hint of her ambiguous relationships with the husbands of those women.
But after thinking for a long time, she was sure that she would not leave any hint. Therefore, there is no way they know about her. Someone must be framing her!
She walked around the living room, biting her nails, and muttering anxiously, “What to do now?”
While she was racking her brains, the women outside had no patience to wait for her. Seeing that she refused to come out, one of the women kicked the gate while saying, “Vixen, you’d better come out, otherwise don’t blame me for tearing down your house!”
When one of them sets an example, the other women start kicking and pushing at the gate. The gate is made of bamboo and connected to the bamboo fence. Although it could be used to mark their yard, it cannot withstand the onslaught of so many angry women.
Ten minutes later, the fence was pushed down by those women and fell to the ground with a loud noise. Neighbors opened their eyes in horror when they saw this scene. Indeed, the scariest people are angry women.
Inside the house, Father Su and Mother Su were startled when they heard the noise and came out to check the situation. Seeing their daughter looking out the window in horror, the two rushed over. When they saw a group of women rushing into the house, their faces were ashen as they looked at them with wide eyes.
Mother Su looked at her daughter and asked in horror, “Anna, what’s going on? Who are these people?”
After hearing her mother’s words, Su Anna’s eyes flashed for a moment and then returned to normal. She lowered her head, clasped her hands tightly, and said, “Mother, I… I don’t know who these people are. They came over and started scolding me.”

She raised her head and a tear slipped from the corner of her eye as she said, “Mother, I’m scared.”
Seeing her daughter’s scared look, Mother Su quickly hugged her and said, “Anna, don’t be afraid. Mother and Father will protect you.”
Seeing this, Father Su asked, “Anna, where is your husband?”
