Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 641

Chapter 641: Taken Advantage Of ( 1 )
As soon as Chen Bo finished speaking, Chen Gang said angrily, “Brother, you are so shameless. My third brother and I earned this food, so it is natural for us to share it equally. Therefore, this money should be divided equally into three parts.”

Chen Bo raised his eyebrows and said with a slight smile, “According to your statement, then this money should be mine. After all, I earned all this money.”

Chen Gang was stunned when he heard his elder brother’s words. He had absolutely nothing to say against him.

Seeing the expressions on his brothers’ faces, Chen Bo knew he had the upper hand and continued calmly, “Second brother, third brother, I know you all need money to pay for your children’s tuition. So, I am willing to share this money with you but you can’t become too greedy and take my kindness for granted.”

Hearing this, Yi Jiao scolded him for being shameless and cunning in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face when she said, “Eldest Brother, we thank you for your thoughts. However, when you were not at home these years, your ex-wife and children did nothing to earn work points. All he knows is eating, sleeping, and bullying others.”

“The money you send back every month is not even enough to compensate other families whose children were beaten by your good son, let alone have any savings. This money is earned by selling our family’s excess grain every year. So, logically speaking, this money is earned by us. To borrow your words, shouldn’t this money be divided equally between the second and third branch instead?” she added.

Before Chen Bo could refute her words, Yi Jiao seemed to have remembered something and said, “Aiya! I only remember a few days ago that our father just used our family’s money to compensate the Li family and the Feng family. If I remember correctly, the total compensation is 1,900 yuan.”

Chen Bo frowned and asked coldly, “Why does our father have to compensate those families so much?”

Yi Jiao let out a long sigh and said helplessly, “What else? It’s because your good son, Jiande, beat their children. Even the shoulder of the only grandson of the Feng family was broken by him! I heard that he could not fully recover, and his injury will affect his daily life as he will no longer be able to use his left arm normally in the future.”

Hearing her words, Chen Bo was stunned. He didn’t expect that his son would dare to beat other children so severely and even cause the other child to become a lame!

Looking at his pale face, Yi Jiao added nonchalantly, “Oh, he also beat a five-year-old girl until her face was swollen and her body was covered with injuries. Brother, because of this incident, the reputation of our Chen family has been ruined. Due to this matter, the other branches’ Elders insist on separating their family from ours ah!”

“Soon after, our father passed away. If he had not punished Jiande, he might still be alive now. Our family was indeed unfortunate. They didn’t even bother to keep up their appearance to pay their last respects to our father now,” she added sadly.

Upon hearing her words, Chen Bo narrowed his eyes dangerously and said, “Third sister-in-law, what do you mean by this? Do you mean that it was my son who killed our father?”

Hearing his words, Yi Jiao looked at him in shock and gasped, “Brother, I didn’t mean anything!”

“Then what do you mean?” Chen Bo asked again.

“It’s just because our father was found dead in the ancestral hall. If our father didn’t punish Jiande for kneeling in the ancestral hall, he wouldn’t have gone there and he certainly wouldn’t have died there. Don’t you think so?” Yi Jiao asked meaningfully.

As soon as she finished speaking, an elder of the Chen family said, “I heard that because my eldest brother’s death was suspicious, everyone agreed to report the matter to the authorities. But it was Gao Shun and Jiande who refused this matter being investigated.”

Chen Bo heard this and had a guess in his mind. It seems that his father’s death is indeed related to his ex-wife and son. That’s why they insist on not reporting the matter to the authorities.

While he loves his father, he loves himself even more. He couldn’t have a criminal as his ex-wife or son. Therefore, he absolutely cannot let them report this matter. He should bury his father as soon as possible to avoid trouble!

After coming to this conclusion, he considered the pros and cons and finally said, “Since the matter is in the past, there is no need to mention it again.”

Without waiting for others to refute his words, he added, “Although I have nothing to do with Jiande now, I can’t close my eyes and pretend that nothing happened. Since he caused our family to lose a lot of money, I will give up my shares. Our family’s money will be shared equally between my brothers.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jianmin was heard coughing violently, as if he would die the next moment.

“Ah Min, what’s wrong?!” Wu Yahui and Chen Gang asked, their faces full of worry.

While coughing, Chen Jianmin observed Chen Bo’s expression from the corner of his eye. Seeing his stiff smile, Chen Jiamin’s lips raised slightly. After coughing for a while, he took a few long breaths before finally calming down.

He clutched his chest, looked at Chen Bo, his eyes full of fear, and asked weakly, “Uncle, I know I am not qualified to speak here, But I…”

Seeing his hesitation, Chen Bo knew what his intentions were and had the urge to tear apart his weak pretentious appearance. But as an elder, he could only endure his hypocrisy and said gently, “Ah Min, just say what you have to say. What’s the matter with the hesitation? Your uncle will not eat you. You will make others misunderstand your uncle like this.”
