Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife-Chapter 1294: A Twisted Pleasure
Reaching out, Liu Hua smooths out her husband’s frown and explains in a low voice, "She claimed her husband saw you giving a woman a lot of meat in town and came to tell me about it. Your son thinks you don’t want us anymore and is mad at you."
Xiao Li’s face darkened when he heard this and asked, "Wife, you didn’t believe her, did you?"
Liu Hua rolled her eyes at him, and replied, "I’m not stupid. Of course, I believe in you."
Xiao Li sighed in relief and nodded, "That’s good."
"Husband, I think you should stop going to town for now. Someone’s already noticed you, and the risk is too high. Even if they have no proof of the transaction, they could still accuse you of having an affair," Liu Hua said.

Xiao Li frowned and said, "Then what should we do with the extra meat? Even if we cure it, it won’t last for a long time."
Liu Hua thought for a moment before suggesting, "How about making jerky? It sells for a higher price than fresh meat and can be stored for a long time. We can sell it once things settle down. If we can’t sell it, we will eat it ourselves."
Xiao Li thought for a moment before he said, "Wife, if we have too much, we should send some to your parents and brothers."
"I heard your eldest brother is struggling after his divorce. We can send meat and some grain to help him pass this period. No matter what, he was always doting on you—it’s only right for us to help when he faced difficulties."
Liu Hua had already planned to send things home, but she didn’t want to do it without her husband’s approval. After all, he was the one earning their food.
Now that he suggested it himself, she was more than happy. She decided he deserved a reward. Leaning in close, she whispered, "Thank you, Husband. I will reward you well tonight."
The moment Xiao Li heard her words and felt her warm breath, his body temperature shot up. He blushed and stared at her.
Suppressing the fire rising in him, he leaned in and bit her earlobe before whispering, "Naughty girl, just wait and see how I punish you tonight."
Liu Hua laughed instead of feeling shy when she heard her husband’s domineering words. She had worked hard to change her husband’s conservative nature, and now that he had finally learned, it was time for her to enjoy the results.
"Then I will wait and see, Husband," she teased.
Before Xiao Li could react, she shoved their son into his arms and said, "Go coax your son. I still need to finish the laundry."
Still caught up in his excitement, Xiao Li was stunned for a moment. Lowering his head, he met his son’s accusing gaze and sighed.
The little one was clearly upset with him, so he had no choice but to coax him. Hugging his son, he headed inside the house to grab some candy for the little ancestor.
Watching her husband’s dejected back, Liu Hua chuckled and continued washing clothes.
Meanwhile, in the Shi family’s house, Mother Shi was lying on the bed with her eyes and mouth crooked. Sitting on the edge of the Kang bed was her second daughter-in-law.
Holding a bowl of rice soup, Shi Erlang’s wife said, "Mother, don’t blame your second daughter-in-law for being unfilial. It’s not that I don’t want to feed you better food or boil medicine for you, but our family really no longer has food or money."
"This morning, the production staff came over under the vice team leader’s order to inform us about the compensation we need to pay your good daughter. He said that if we didn’t give her 100 yuan, our family would be reported to the authorities for human trafficking."
"Now, not only do we need to pay that bitch, but we also have to return the bride price to that old man. So, we really can’t afford your medicine or treatment."
Hearing this, Mother Shi glared at her and let out sounds from her throat, "Unghh! Ergh! Aghh!"
The moment Shi Erlang’s wife heard her shouting like a beast, she frowned and said, "Mother, stop shouting. My husband, brothers-in-law, and father already went to the mountain foothills to dig out your gold. After they sell your gold, we should have enough money to pay off our debts. By then, we will have money to treat you."
Mother Shi tried her best to shake her head. She wanted to tell them that what was buried in that place was not gold, as they thought, but something else. They shouldn’t dig it out, or it might bring disaster to their family.
Unfortunately, no matter how much she shouted, her second daughter-in-law didn’t understand her. Perhaps finding her voice harsh to her ears, Shi Erlang’s wife pulled her up and shoved the rice soup into her throat.
She almost choked on the rice soup and coughed violently. The rice soup splashed onto her clothes and the bed. It even dirtied Shi Erlang’s wife’s clothes.
Feeling disgusted, she slammed the bowl on the table at the end of the Kang bed and scolded, "Old hag, how dare you spit out the porridge! Do you know that we left all the good things for you while we only drink plain water?"
Years of being suppressed and bullied by her mother-in-law resurfaced in her mind. Now that her mother-in-law had finally become disabled, her turn for revenge was here.
Although she wanted to get her revenge and return all of her suffering from these years, she still didn’t dare to do it blatantly. After all, her husband still forbade her from bullying her mother-in-law.
So, she could only pinch Mother Shi’s flesh hidden beneath her clothes. The most painful place was the inner thighs, so she pinched there until her nails pierced the flesh.
As she pinched, she stared at her mother-in-law’s distorted expression from the pain and felt a twisted pleasure in her heart.
