Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife

There was once when the middle-aged woman's brother tried to take advantage of Zhang Dongmei and was caught by him.

That day, she thought her brother would be beaten to death. If not for the Zhang family stopping him, this man would definitely have killed her brother.

Every time she recalled what happened back then, she felt her soul would leave her body. Therefore, meeting with him now, she instinctively took two steps back. Even the middle-aged man was stunned and no longer dared to shout.

Seeing that his parents suddenly went silent, the boy said unhappily, "Father, that person is a bad man! You have to avenge me and beat him!"

As soon as he said this, Li Chenze raised his eyebrows and said coldly, "So it's your family's boy. No wonder he behaved so arrogantly when he was only several years old. Turns out, it's the two of you who taught him to steal."

The moment they heard his words, the middle-aged couple were shocked. Hugging her son, the middle-aged woman said, "Comrade, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't speak carelessly! My boy is so well-behaved, he won't steal! It must be you who is targeting my family!"

Hearing this, Li Chenze asked, "Oh, why should I target your family?"

The middle-aged woman was racking her brain to retort his words. But before she could say a word, the staff said, "That's enough."

After a moment of pause, he continued, "Comrade, your son tried to steal this comrade's eggs in public. We believe that such a young boy still doesn't know how to differentiate between good and bad."

When they heard this, the middle-aged couple quickly nodded and said, "Comrade, you are right. My boy is so well-behaved, how could he steal people's things?"

Raising his hand to stop them from speaking, the staff said, "Since the boy didn't know, it must be his parents who taught him. Otherwise, how could he dare to act so arrogantly and steal in broad daylight?"

As soon as he finished his words, the middle-aged couple's faces turned pale. They were stunned by the sudden turn of the situation.

Without giving the couple any chance to defend themselves, the staff added, "Comrade, all these years, we have received a lot of reports about your son snatching other people's property. Most of the time, we just settled the matter with an apology and compensation."

"But after so many times, not only did your son fail to realize his mistake, he became more domineering and arrogant. If we let him be, he will become a criminal in the future."

Taking a breath, the staff continued, "To avoid this, we will have to report this matter to the authorities and let them re-educate the two of you and your son."

After he finished his words, the middle-aged woman asked, "Comrade, what crimes did my family commit? What gives you the right to report us?"

The staff looked at them and said sternly, "As parents, you failed in educating your child and taught him bad things, grooming him into a lawless citizen. As a party member, you go against the rules by threatening other members whenever a conflict arises."

"Just these two points alone are already enough to send the two of you to be re-educated," he added.

When he finished his words, he turned to Li Chenze and asked, "Comrade, do you think this explanation is enough for you?"

Li Chenze didn't want to waste his time with them anymore, as his wife was waiting for him at home. So, he nodded and said, "I have no objection. As long as they can reform themselves and change their ways, I won't bring up this matter anymore in the future."

The staff was satisfied with his words and said, "Then, we will take care of the rest."

Taking the hint, Li Chenze nodded and said, "In that case, I will take my leave now. Thank you for your help, Comrade."

"This is what we should do," the staff replied.

After leaving the production team's office, Li Chenze rode towards his parents-in-law's house and arrived in less than fifteen minutes. Seeing that the gate was open, he rode the bicycle into the yard and parked it near the well.

Before he could inform his parents-in-law, he heard the sound of people arguing from the house. Frowning, he walked to the house.

The moment he saw the broken bowls and scattered millet porridge on the ground, he frowned and asked, "What's going on here?"

Hearing his voice, the people inside the house were startled. Turning around, they saw him standing at the door, frowning deeply.

Seeing him, Mother Zhang quickly asked, "Eldest son-in-law, what brought you here today so suddenly? Why didn't you inform us before coming?"

"Mother-in-law, I came to visit you and my father-in-law to check on the two of you," Li Chenze replied and walked into the house.

He looked at his brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law before asking, "What's going on here?"

The Zhang siblings and their spouses didn't dare to meet his stern gaze and lowered their heads. Seeing his children like this, Father Zhang felt as if he found backing and said, "Eldest son-in-law, you came at the right time."

Pointing at his children, he continued, "Since I'm old now and no longer able to work, my unfilial children are asking me to separate the family. They don't want to take care of me and my wife in our old age, but are demanding that we divide the family's property."

Hearing this, Li Chenze looked at his wife's siblings and asked, "Is what Father-in-law said true?"

"Eldest brother-in-law, this is the Zhang family's matter. You are just a son-in-law. You have no right to meddle in this matter," Zhang Dalang said.

Hearing this, Li Chenze nodded and replied, "I'm indeed the Zhang family's son-in-law, but my wife is your eldest sister. As the eldest son-in-law, I have every right to be present when the Zhang family separates the family."
