Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 904

Chapter 904: Big Fight
Lu Jueyu handed the ice pack to her husband and said, “Husband, put it on your body to lower your body temperature.”

Li Chenmo felt hot and did not refuse. He took the ice pack and applied it to his neck, wrists, and armpits. After a while, he felt better and his body temperature slowly dropped.

Seeing that her husband’s face looked better, Lu Jueyu breathed a sigh of relief and left the kitchen. Cooking on the stove in this weather is torture.

While the two were working hard to cook the Zongzi, the fragrance of the Zongzi was blown around by the wind. Villagers returning from the foothills can smell the fragrance of it when they pass by the hills.

Although the Dragon Boat Festival is not a public holiday, some villagers still made Zongzi and celebrated the festival last year. But this year, there is a shortage of food and no one is in the mood to waste money and ingredients making Zongzi.

As a result, the news about Li Chenmo’s family making Zongzi spread.

Since everyone saw how much grains and meat they got during the distribution, they could only say some harsh words due to jealousy but couldn’t do anything to them.

At the same time, Dong Li and Dong Huang were walking back from Feng Lin’s house when they heard the villagers talking about their parents making Zongzi.

Dong Li hasn’t eaten Zongzi for a long time, and Dong Huang has never had the chance to taste them.

So when she heard the villagers talking about it, she looked at her brother and asked, “Brother, what is Zongzi?”

“It’s a food stuffed with glutinous rice, pork and mushrooms. It’s delicious,” Dong Li said as he reminisced about the taste.

When she heard that the food was delicious, Dong Huang’s eyes lit up and she said, “Brother, let’s go back quickly.”

Seeing her greedy look, Dong Li flicked her sister’s forehead and said, “Zongzi takes a long time to cook. We can only eat them during the Dragon Boat Festival tomorrow.”

Dong Huang rubbed her forehead and said with a pout, “Brother, let’s go back and help our parents. Why do you always think about eating?”

Dong Li was speechless when he heard his sister’s words. Who always thinks about eating? Isn’t it her?

When they walked through the central area, they saw Liu Fuyan carrying Liu Qingran on her back. She walked with her head lowered as if lost in thought.

Seeing her like this, Dong Li frowned and walked over. Even though he was right in front of her, she still didn’t notice him and almost bumped into him.

“Fuyan, what’s wrong?” he asked.

Hearing his voice, Liu Fuyan was stunned and raised her head suddenly. When she saw Dong Li and Dong Huang in front of her, she smiled and said, “What a coincidence, Brother Li, Xiao Huang.”

Dong Li glanced at Liu Qingran, who was sleeping soundly, and asked again, “Fuyan, what’s wrong?”

He looked at her stiff smile and noticed the worry in her eyes. Something big must have happened to make her so troubled.

After a while, Liu Fuyan sighed and said, “Actually, it’s nothing. I just felt bored, so I went out for a walk.”

She couldn’t tell others what happened at home.

Although Dong Li knew something was troubling her, since she didn’t want to tell him, he didn’t insist.

He reached out and picked up the sleeping Liu Qingran on Liu Fuyan’s back, carried him on his back, and said, “Since you have nothing to do, why don’t you and Xiao Ran come with us to pick mushrooms?”

Hearing this, Liu Fuyan nodded and said, “Okay.”

When she and her brother went to pick mushrooms, her father and mother had a big fight at home.

Shi Qiwan sat on the Kang bed, looking at her husband with red eyes. She squeezed the hem of her clothes and said in a hoarse voice, “Liu Pan, say it again.”

Liu Pan sat on the chair, looked at his crying wife, and slowly repeated his words, “Shi Qiwan, let’s get a divorce.”

Hearing this, Shi Qiwan closed her eyes and asked, “Why? What did I do wrong that you want to divorce me?”

Liu Pan closed his eyes and said with a sigh, “Shi Qiwan, you know the reason in your heart. After you have been married to me for so many years, have you ever treated my family as yours? Have you ever treated this place as your home?”

There was a hint of disappointment and pain in his shaky voice.

Shi Qiwan heard her husband’s words and said, “How can you ask me these questions? Since I married you, I have always regarded your family as mine and tried my best to take care of your parents and sister.”

“Is that so? Then why do you still need to give money and food to your parents’ family? Are your brothers and parents disabled and unable to work?” Liu Pan asked.

“That’s because they didn’t get enough food this year during the distribution day,” Shi Qiwan defended her family.

Hearing his wife’s words, Liu Pan chuckled and said, “Look, you are still protecting them. You know very well why they don’t get enough food!”

“Isn’t it because your family is full of lazy people? They have been used to you giving them food and money for a long time. They keep squeezing money out of the married daughters and never think they need to work hard.”

Shi Qiwan was taken aback and tried to explain, “No, they…”

Before Shi Qiwan could finish her words, Liu Pan interrupted her, “Not only did you give my family hard-earned food and money to your blood-sucking family, but you also plotted against my sister just to make money for your family!”

“Tell me, given these reasons, why should I continue this marriage? With these reasons, isn’t it enough for me to divorce you?” he asked.
