Chapter 136 The Wife Who Was Forced to Eat the Son-in-law's Free Rice 28

Even the girl with pigtails who arrived deliberately touched the arm of Du Xiaowan, who looked shocked.

"Did you hear that? Your eldest brother married into your sister-in-law's family! He didn't marry into your family to eat, he brought food to support your whole family. Hey, I'm curious, he's not short of money, and he's not bad looking, so why did he marry into your family?"

The girl with pigtails was very eloquent, and she spoke slowly and drawn out, making Du Xiaowan so angry that her eyes widened and her face flushed as she retorted:

"What do you care? No matter what she is, she still came to my house to pay for herself. What's so precious about her? Who would like someone with a naturally foxy face? If my brother hadn't wanted her, no one would marry a woman like her!"

The girl with pigtails curled her lips. If it were her family, she would definitely worship Madam Lu and she wouldn't have to do any housework. Her mother would definitely bring the meal to her bedside with a smile!

Who can resist money... It's a pity that her elder brother is not as good as him and does not have the figure and appearance of Du Xiaowan's elder brother.

The girl with pigtails felt sorry, but when she saw Du Xiaowan jumping up and down and talking nonsense, she stopped arguing with her and waved her hand lightly.

"Okay, whatever you say is what it is, as long as you believe it yourself."

"That's exactly what happened! My mother said it was our family who took her in! We even took the initiative to let the two children take her family name. Her Lu family should be grateful instead of trying to go against my mother!"

Du Xiaowan's face turned blue with anger, and her voice became so sharp that it attracted everyone's attention.

"Okay, okay, okay, whatever you say is true." The girl with pigtails rubbed her ears with her hands, took in the expression on her face, and ridiculed her for being stupid in her heart.

Even she, an outsider, knew that Du Xiaowan was able to learn embroidery skills from Master Wen, that Du Xiaowan's elder brother was able to study in one of the best academies in town, and that the aroma of meat wafted from the Du family from time to time, which one of them was not earned from the money from Madam Lu?

He is eating meat with a bowl in his hand, but starts scolding when the bowl is dropped. He doesn't know how to cherish it at all.

…If only I had fallen for her elder brother first.

The girl with pigtails lowered her eyes and glanced at Du Xiaowan's bright red dress with envy, then turned her head to pay attention to the situation on Aunt Zhang's side.

Zhang Cuifen stood there in a daze, slowly took a step back, and closed her mouth without saying another word.

She noticed the sudden increase in the level of activity around her, but she was startled by the hammer in Lu Duocai's hand and didn't hear what was being said. She only heard something... something about being a gigolo...

This group of people like to gossip for no reason. She is too lazy to pay attention to them now. She still has to calm Lu's father down first.

Zhang Cuifen thought about it and stared at the hammer in Lu Duocai's hand again, her eyes more vigilant.

However, this hammer only looks intimidating. Fortunately, she knows that the Lu family is a group of honest people. Even if they make her faint from anger, they will not swing the hammer at others. Thinking so, Zhang Cuifen still trembled in her heart before she spoke.

"Why are you so excited? I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, just ask her. Just ask her if I've ever laid a finger on her in all the years since she married me."

Zhang Cuifen's eyes were filled with sadness, and she beat her chest and stamped her feet while speaking, like a mother-in-law who was misunderstood by her daughter-in-law. After her performance, the voices of discussion around her died down for a while, and then started again.

"Yeah, Madam Lu, you're pretty efficient at work, and there aren't any injuries on your body or face."

"So, Mrs. Zhang was wrongly accused?"

"Wait, let me think this through. This is hard to explain. It's so complicated that even I can't figure it out. Don't let Zhang Cuifen fool you. But why does she look so genuinely sad?"

"Yes, we see each other all the time. Zhang Cuifen has always been so arrogant, and I've never seen her so weak. Is it that Madam Lu's family is deliberately bullying others? We can't just stand by and watch!"

Seeing the topic change every second, Lu Yi still had a faint smile on his face. He listened to the voice ringing in his ears and raised his eyes to give a look to the crowd.

As soon as they looked at each other, a loud female voice came out, attracting everyone's attention.

"You're confused! Mrs. Zhang's son is a son-in-law, not the one she paid for and married into the family. Why do you beat him? She's a conscientious person if she doesn't hit them back. Do you remember my distant cousin? He's still being bullied every day, with slap marks on his face from time to time. It's shameful!"

The person who was speaking deliberately glanced at Zhang Cuifen and kept criticizing her in his words.

Zhang Cuifen glared at the man fiercely, waving her arms in denial, "What nonsense are you talking about! What do you mean by marrying into the wife's family? There's no such thing as marrying into the wife's family when a man and a woman get married. The most important thing is that they like each other and live together. Nothing else matters!"

The scoffing continued, leaving Zhang Cuifen bewildered and flustered. She felt that things were not going as smoothly as she had imagined. The inexplicable panic forced her to look at Lu Duocai, "My dear in-laws, don't you agree? We've discussed this before. There's no such thing as marrying into the family. Please help explain it to me. My son has always regarded you as his real father."

The sobbing tone became more and more obvious. "If they keep talking like this, what will happen to my son's reputation, in-laws! Speak up!"

The sneer in Lu Duocai's eyes was not hidden at all. He raised his hand and said, "I don't deserve it. I am ashamed to say that. I only have one precious daughter in my life, but no son."

"Oh, it's just a son-in-law. After today, there will be no more."

After hearing Lu Duocai's shocking words, Lu Yi stretched out his arm and gave a thumbs up.

Zhang Cuifen bent over, her entire body trembling noticeably. She took a deep breath and said, "My dear, I... I admit that I usually have a few more expectations of my daughter-in-law. That... that's also because I have high expectations for your daughter. I hope she can become a better person. After all, I didn't hit her. How can she face my son after you said that?"

"My son has never done anything wrong to her. After all these years, he hasn't had a single concubine!"

Zhang Cuifen made a big number with her fingers and angrily wanted to raise it in front of Lu Duocai so that he could see it clearly.

"Isn't this the right thing to do? My Lu family spent a lot of money to recruit a son-in-law, so how can he be qualified to take a concubine? Zhang Cuifen, even if you don't understand, ask them, is a son-in-law qualified to take a concubine?"

Lu Duocai snorted coldly, completely ignoring the twitching of Zhang Cuifen's facial features.

He is not a pushover. Since he has decided to break up his daughter's bad fate, he must do it completely. But the Du family, don't even think about taking advantage of them. Their reputation must stand on his daughter's side!

A dull sound was heard, and Zhang Cuifen knelt down, pounding the ground angrily. The tears she had pretended to cry no longer needed to be acted, as they slid straight down her cheeks.

Yang Tian said shamelessly: "Wendong, where have you been? The whole family is bullying your mother! They are so heartless. Son, please come back soon. Mom is being bullied so badly by them. Please come back and support her..."

She shouted and pounded the ground. After a burst of crying, her eyes slightly raised and looked at Lu Duocai's face.
