Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife

Chapter 1295 - 1295: Old Letter

Shi Erlang's wife stared at her mother-in-law and thought, 'So, this is the pleasure of beating others. No wonder my mother-in-law always beat me and my sister-in-law.'

The feeling of holding the power to determine people's lives was so good. With this thought, she shoved a rag into her mother-in-law's mouth and kept pinching and twisting her mother-in-law's flesh with a twisted smile.

Mother Shi couldn't move and could only endure the pinching. She wanted to shout, but her mouth was stuffed with a rag, so she could only let out muffled sounds from her throat.

While she was being tortured by her second daughter-in-law, her husband and her three sons were

The moment the lid was opened, there was no gold at all. Besides a small jade pendant, there was only a yellowed letter and a piece of a baby's dudou.

Seeing this, Father Shi frowned and took the jade pendant. He looked at it and found it familiar, but he couldn't recall where he had seen it before. Looking at the yellowed letter, he handed the box to his second son and took the letter.

As he opened the paper, he saw the elegant handwriting and realized that this was a letter written by his lord's daughter years ago. It had been so many years since he and his wife were freed from servitude and regained their freedom.

When his lord and his family were taken away by the government back then, he had just married his wife and was still young. His lord's only daughter had just married, and he only knew that she had run away to another country with her husband's family.

Feeling curious, he read the letter, and his eyes widened in shock. Seeing their father's pale face, the Shi brothers' curiosity was piqued.

"Father, what is written in the letter?" Shi Erlang asked.

Hearing his second son's words, Father Shi quickly tore the letter and put the jade pendant back into the box. He looked at his sons and said, "Sons, remember that we didn't come here today and found nothing."

Confused by their father's words, the Shi brothers looked at each other, but they didn't dare to ask more questions.

After closing the box, Father Shi put it back into the hole and buried it. When he was done, he quickly returned home, followed by his sons. He never expected his wife to dare to do this behind his back.

'No wonder she treats Qiwan like that. Now, everything makes sense!' he thought inwardly.

At the same time, in the county town's hospital, the doctor was checking on Wang Muxiao with the curtain drawn closed. Standing outside the curtain, Lu Cheng was anxious as he heard his wife groaning in pain.

When he could barely hold back his anxiety anymore, the curtain was pulled open, and the doctor said while taking off her medical gloves, "Comrade Lu, your wife is almost ready. We will move her to the labor room."

Hearing this, Lu Cheng asked, "Doctor, can I go inside and accompany my wife?"

The old doctor was surprised by his words. It wasn't rare for a mother or mother-in-law to accompany a pregnant woman in the labor room, but this was the first time she had heard such a request from a husband.

After all, many older people still believed it was unlucky for a man to enter the labor room. Besides, most men prioritized having a child, while the mother's well-being was often overlooked.

Wasn't it a woman's duty to give birth to her husband's children? This was the most common phrase she heard from those women's husbands.

So, after hearing his request, the old doctor smiled and said, "Comrade Lu, the labor process can be quite unsightly, and you might not be able to endure it."

"Doctor, I have experience. When my wife gave birth to our daughter, I was there to accompany her. She is afraid of pain, and I want to be by her side," Lu Cheng said.

When their daughter was born, they had done it at home, allowing him to stay by his wife's side. Now that they were in a hospital, he wasn't sure if he would be allowed into the labor room, so he asked.
