Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 697

Chapter 697: My Daughter Did Nothing Wrong!
After lunch, the Liu family saw off the matchmaker and everyone before carrying the bamboo baskets into the house.

When the second and third daughter-in-law saw the sewing machine, bicycle, radio, and leather shoes, they were both envious and happy for Liu Hua. Over the years, they had worried that she would not get married. Fortunately, her wait was not in vain and she was finally able to marry the man she loved.

Sitting in the living room, Father Liu looked at his daughter and said, “Ah Hua, your mother and I have decided to take half of the food and give you the rest as a dowry, including bicycle, sewing machine, and other things.”

Hearing this, Shi Qiwan suddenly interrupted and said, “Father, how can you give it to Ah Hua? When I got married, the bride price and betrothal gifts were given to my family. So, these should be given to us.”

“Eldest daughter-in-law, what happened back then is your family’s decision, and as your parents-in-law, we cannot interfere. However, this is our decision as Ah Hua’s parents, and you, the daughter-in-law, have no say,” Mother Liu said with a frown.

“Sister-in-law, even if Mother and Father didn’t give these things to Ah Hua, it’s not your turn to get anything. Don’t stretch your hands too far,” the second daughter-in-law reminded her when she noticed Father Liu’s frown.

Before Shi Qiwan could speak, her husband took her hand and said with a low voice, “Stop making trouble.”

Hearing the warning in his tone, she could only shut up and glare at her second sister-in-law.

Liu Hua knew that her family loved her, but her sewing skills were not good and the sewing machine was useless in her hands. Rather than keeping it gathering dust, why not give it to a mother who is a skilled craftsman?

After thinking for a while, she said, “Father, Mother, thank you. I know you are all worried about me, but you also know that I am not skilled in making clothes. Ah Li and I discussed it and agreed to give the sewing machine to my mother. Please don’t refuse it since we will need you to help us make clothes from now on.”

After hearing what she said, Mother Liu smiled and said, “Since you have said it, then Mother will accept it.”

“As for the radio, it’s for my father. Ah Li said you like to listen to opera. With the radio, you can now listen to it as much as you want. You don’t have to go to another brigade to listen to the opera,” Liu Hua said with a smile.

Father Liu became even more satisfied with his son-in-law and said, “You two are so thoughtful.”

Liu Hua pointed to the bamboo basket and said, “The fabric and cotton will be shared with everyone. It should be enough to make a new jacket for everyone. As for the leather shoes, I want one pair, and the other two pairs are for Father and Mother. I will also take the watch and bicycle.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Qiwan said, “What about your elder brother? You have been living in this house and eating his food for so long, but you have not prepared anything for him?”

“Shi Qiwan, you’d better shut up. I haven’t forgiven you for what happened before, and you want to create more trouble for me again?” Liu Pan said with a low voice.

After hearing her husband’s reprimand, Shi Qiwan became angry and asked, “Did I say something wrong? This house belongs to us, and she eats our food. She got so many good things, why not give us some?”

“As the eldest son, it is my responsibility to take care of my younger siblings. Even if they get married and have their own families, I will still support them if they need me,” Liu Pan said firmly.

This time, not only Liu Hua but also her second and third brothers were moved by his eldest brother’s words. Ever since they were young, their elder brother had really protected them and always gave them good things first. He would only eat after they had finished.

“Elder brother, your knees always hurt when the weather is cold, so the tonic wine is for you. These tonic wines are brewed by Jueyu using wild ginseng and have great health effects. You must drink a spoonful every day to get better,” Liu Hua reminded him.

“Thank you, Ah Hua. But you can keep it for yourself,” Liu Pan smiled.

“Brother, don’t refuse. You have taken care of me for so many years. This is nothing compared to what you gave me over the years,” Liu Hua insisted.

“Food will be distributed equally to everyone. Cigarettes and liquor are for my second and third brothers,” she added.

After hearing her words, both brothers were happy. Although they had been living separately for several years, they doted on her very much. So, it warms their hearts to know that she hasn’t forgotten them.

After dividing the things, Liu Hua only took a pair of leather shoes, a bicycle, a watch, two sets of new clothes, and 500 yuan.

Xiao Li has told her that he will work with Li Lingyun in the future and can make some money. Therefore, after marrying him, she no longer has to worry about anything and can help her family to have a better life.

While the Liu family was in a happy atmosphere, Chen Lina’s family fell into chaos. At this time, four police officers blocked the door, blocking Chen Lina who tried to run away.

Father Chen looked at the police and asked, “Officer, what does this mean? Why are you blocking my door?”

The police officer took out a document from his pocket and said, “Comrade, we are here today to arrest a woman named Chen Lina.”

After hearing his words, everyone in the Chen family was stunned. Mother Chen blocked the police officer’s view with her body and asked, “Why do you want to arrest my daughter? My daughter did nothing wrong!”
