Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 868

Chapter 868: Separation ( 3 )
“You know your wife’s character. She often uses her position as the eldest daughter-in-law to bully your third sister-in-law. It’s a miracle that your third sister-in-law has persisted for so many years. Do you still want your third brother and his family to continue to suffer such abuse?” Mother Lu asked.

“I…”

At this time, Song Yun was completely speechless. He didn’t know what to say to his aunt. Although he did not expect that his wife would send their food to her parents’ house and blame the third sister-in-law, he knew that his wife always avoided work.

Since no one complained, he thought everything was fine. But today, he finally understood that his third brother’s family was actually suffering from their bullying.

Seeing that her nephew was silent, Mother Lu left the room and said, “What are you waiting for? Let’s finish it early, and then we can go back to work.”

Lu Han heard his mother’s words and quickly followed her.

When they arrived at the Song family’s house, they saw that everyone was there. Even Han Yuheng and the village elders were present.

Song Hai saw her coming and said, “Sister, you are here. Please have a seat.”

After sitting down, Mother Lu looked at Song Hai and said, “Brother, have you thought about it?”

Nodding after listening to her words, Song Hai said, “I have thought about it carefully. My sons already have their own grandchildren. As the family prospers, it is indeed time to separate the family. In this way, there will be less trouble in the future.”

After hearing his words, everyone more or less understood the situation. For a family to separate, the most common problems are money and food.

Song Hai looked at Wu Huning and said, “Eldest daughter-in-law, take out the family’s money.”

Hearing this, Wu Huning felt a little reluctant to give up, but under the gaze of her husband and father-in-law, she had no choice. She could only walk to her room and take out a small wooden box.

She put the box on the table and said, “Father, this is all the money our family has.”

Song Hai nodded to her, opened the box, and saw several food stamps and meat stamps, with some money on them. When he saw the amount of money and coupons, his eyes darkened.

He took out everything in the box and said, “Eldest daughter-in-law, you are the one who has been in charge of our family’s money for so many years. Can you tell us our family’s income and expenses last year?”

When Wu Huning heard this, her hands trembled slightly because of nervousness. She looked at everyone and said, “Father, it’s been too long, I can’t remember clearly.”

Song Hai looked at her thoughtfully and asked, “What about these past few months? Our family doesn’t have many places to spend our money. So, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to think about it, right?”

Hearing this, Wu Huning opened her mouth, but nothing came out. Under everyone’s gaze, a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

“Father, that…I…” She stammered out of panic.

Seeing this, Song Yun frowned and said, “Wife, don’t you have a good memory? Why are you stuttering now?”

Before Wu Huning could answer her husband, Mother Lu smiled and said, “Niece, aren’t you unable to explain because you took this family’s money and coupons and gave it to your parents?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Song Yun looked at his wife and asked, “Wife, is what my aunt said true?”

Wu Huning was angered by Mother Lu’s words and glared at her. She racked her brains to come up with an excuse. Unfortunately, no matter what she thought, she couldn’t find a good reason.

When Song Yun saw this, he knew that his wife might have taken the family’s money for herself. He looked at her and said sternly: “Wife, take out the money.”

Hearing this, Wu Huning looked at her husband with wide eyes and said, “Husband, that money is the money for our grandson’s wedding!”

As soon as these words came out, Song Li sneered, “Eldest sister-in-law, when Ah Min fell into the river and needed money for medical treatment, you said that our family had no money. You told me that if I insisted on taking my son to the hospital, I should borrow money from others.”

“I didn’t expect you to take the money instead. If it weren’t for my aunt, my son might have died due to the fever. As his eldest uncle’s wife, how could you watch Ah Min suffer and do nothing?” he asked.

There was disappointment, anger, and hatred in his voice and eyes.

Wu Huning heard this and said, “Third brother, I have taken care of our home these years. Even if I take some, it is what I deserve.”

Everyone was stunned when they heard her words. Although she is in charge of the family’s money, everyone does their part for the family. What’s more, that money was everyone’s hard work. So, what qualifications does she have to take this money for herself?

As soon as Song Yun saw the expressions of his father and aunt, he knew that he could not protect his wife. So, he stood up and walked to his room. When he came out, he had a box in his hand.

When Wu Huning saw the box, she rushed over and snatched it away. But before she could get the box, her husband had already put it on the table and said, “Father, I’m sorry that I failed to educate my wife. This is all her money.”

Song Hai looked at his eldest son and sighed, “Forget it. Since you took out the money, we won’t pursue this matter.”

He then opened the box and saw a wad of money and coupons inside. Although Song Hai was angry with his eldest daughter-in-law, he didn’t say anything and just counted the money.
