Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife-Chapter 1328: Well-Intentioned Advice

Lu Han patted his friend's shoulder and said, "That's great! Brother Bai, my family lives in Xie Village. If you come for a visit, just ask the villagers for directions to the Lu family's house."

When Bai Jian heard this, he nodded and said, "Alright."

"Brother Bai, Sister-in-law, I still have matters to attend to so I won't bother you any longer. Let's chat another time," Lu Han said.

After a brief conversation, Lu Han and Lu Cheng went to pay the hospital fees and take care of the discharge procedure. As for Chen Anwen, she was packing up their belongings while Wang Muxiao breastfeed the newborn babies.

An hour later, she had finished helping Wang Muxiao clean up her body and change into a set of new clothes. Since they were leaving, she packed the rest of the things their families had bought into a smaller bamboo basket.

Besides dried sweet potatoes, roasted nuts, and fruit slices, there was also some ointment to reduce swelling, a jar of wound ointment, some ginseng powder, and a small bottle of tonic wine.

After she closed the bamboo basket lid, she walked to the bed across from them. Seeing that Wang Qiuhe was alone, she smiled and greeted her, "Sister-in-law."

Wang Qiuhe raised her gaze and saw that it was her husband's friend's wife. She smiled at her and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you need anything?"

The moment Chen Anwen saw how Wang Qiuhe avoided eye contact and kept picking at her nails, her heart sank. Her behavior was so similar to Lu Jueyu's before she fell into the river.

She walked over, placed the bamboo basket on the bedside table, and sat on the chair.

After hesitating for a while, she reached out to hold Wang Qiuhe's thin and rough hand and said, "Sister-in-law, we might not know each other, but as a woman, please allow me to say a few words to you."

At first, Wang Qiuhe was uncomfortable when her hands were held by a stranger. But when she heard her words, she looked at her and asked, "Sister-in-law, feel free to speak your mind."

Chen Anwen smiled at her and said, "Sister-in-law, I heard about your matters from my second sister-in-law. No matter what our background is, no matter if we are literate or not, our value doesn't lie in other people's words but ourselves."

"As women, we can also hold up half of the sky. Only when we devalue ourselves do we truly become useless. When you hear hurtful words from other people, don't take them to heart."

"Most people can't stand to see others doing better than them and are bound to be jealous. By saying hurtful words and watching the other party feel sad and eventually crawl under their feet, they feel satisfied."

"I don't know your mother-in-law, nor do I know you. But I can see that you are not someone without merit, like your mother-in-law said you were. So why did you let her feel satisfied from harming you?"

"To change ourselves and find the courage to take the first step will take time. But I believe your husband will accompany you. You must trust your husband and fight for yourself and your children."

After she said this, Chen Anwen patted Wang Qiuhe's hand gently and added, "Sister-in-law, before you leave, please come visit me and my husband. I will be waiting for you."

When she was done speaking, she let go of her hands and went to help Wang Muxiao carry one of her nephews.

Not long after, Lu Han and Lu Cheng returned to the ward and carried the bags and bamboo baskets.

Sitting on her bed, Wang Qiuhe looked at their backs. She didn't notice that she was crying and only realized it when she found her sight blurring and a warm drop of water falling on her collarbone.

Clasping her hands together, her lips quivered for a moment before she let out a soft voice, "Thank you."

Not long after they left, Bai Jian returned with a thermos flask and saw that his wife was crying. Thinking that she was feeling unwell, he walked over in large strides and placed the thermos flask on the bedside table.

Holding his wife's hands, he asked, "Wife, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Wang Qiuhe shook her head, but she couldn't stop crying. When she looked at her husband, she saw worry, loss, and sadness in his eyes.

She didn't know where she got the courage, but she reached out and threw herself into her husband's embrace.

Bai Jian was stunned by his wife's sudden action and wanted to remind her that there were people watching them. But when he felt the wetness on his clothes, he pulled her into his arms instead.

When the other people in the ward saw this, they pretended to be busy and moved their gazes. They had all seen how Wang Qiuhe's mother-in-law treated her, so they could understand why she sought comfort from her husband.

Even the young woman who was jealous of Wang Muxiao didn't say any sarcastic words this time. After all, her situation was similar.

Fortunately, she had been able to give birth to a son this time, which made her mother-in-law stop scolding and beating her in public.

Meanwhile, Zhang Ermu had finished buying some things from the state-owned grain and supplies store and was currently helping the Lu family load their bags and bamboo baskets.

Seeing the grains, roasted nuts, fabric, cotton, and candies, the Lu family knew that he was preparing for his upcoming wedding.

After Lu Han helped his wife get into the cart, he climbed into the driver's seat and said, "Brother Zhang, thank you for your help today. If you need any help with your wedding preparations, feel free to find us. If we are able to, my family will definitely help you."

"Thank you, Brother Lu. I will find you if I need any help," Zhang Ermu nodded as he whipped his bullock.
