Female-dominated society: My wife is an incompetent wife

Chapter 10: Forgetting Wife After Having a Daughter

"Alright, hurry up and eat. Once you're full, I'll take you out to play this afternoon." With that, Mo Xunhuan picked up a piece of chicken and put it in her daughter's bowl.

"Thank you, Daddy~" Lu Qingqing said sweetly to Mo Xunhuan.

Like most families, Mo Xunhuan's position in the family is unshakeable. Both his daughter and wife love him to the fullest.

However, the relationship between the daughter and the wife seemed quite ordinary. In Lu Qingqing's opinion, her father was so outstanding that it was a huge loss for him to marry her mother.

In Lu Xiaoxue's view, this daughter was simply superfluous, not only adding a lot of pressure to her life, but also taking away some of her husband's affection.

"Honey, I want some too~" Lu Xiaoxue said coquettishly as she saw her husband serving food to their daughter.

Hearing that sweet, coquettish voice, Lu Qingqing frowned, looked at her mother with disdain, and complained, "Hey, Mom, how old are you? Still acting like a child?"

"What's wrong with me being coquettish? I have a husband who spoils me! What's it to you? Go eat!" Lu Xiaoxue retorted arrogantly.

"Tch, what a lewd old woman!" Lu Qingqing muttered under her breath.

"Hey, what are you saying, you little brat?"

"Alright, alright, just eat already. Why are you arguing with the child?" Mo Xunhuan picked up a piece of meat and put it into Lu Xiaoxue's bowl.

"Me, argue with her? It's this girl who's always talking back to me. How can she talk to her own mother like that? She needs to be taught a lesson," Lu Xiaoxue said, dissatisfied.

"That's because you have a sharp tongue and are always inappropriate in front of the child. This girl learned it from you," Mo Xunhuan retorted irritably.

"I..." Lu Xiaoxue was speechless for a moment, and could only glare at her daughter with dissatisfaction before lowering her head to eat her meal.

"Oh, by the way, I found a job and I'm going to start work next Monday," Mo Xunhuan suddenly said.

"What? Work? Where do you want to work? Why do you want to work outside? It's so tiring!" Lu Xiaoxue immediately became anxious when she heard that Mo Xunhuan wanted to work.

"It's not tiring. It's just going to Qingqing's kindergarten and helping out in the kitchen. It's very easy," Mo Xunhuan explained.

"What?! Daddy, you're coming to work at our kindergarten? That's great!" Lu Qingqing cheered excitedly.

"What's so good about it? It's not good at all. Just stay at home. I can support you and your father on my own." Lu Xiaoxue slammed her hand on the table and said with dissatisfaction.

"Raise her? Can you even afford it?" Mo Xunhuan grabbed Lu Xiaoxue's ear and demanded, "Our daughter is still young now. When she goes to elementary and middle school, we'll need tutoring classes, which will cost even more. Besides, we don't even have a car right now; we have to squeeze onto the bus to pick her up every day. Where's the money you're talking about? Where is it?"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch..." Lu Xiaoxue cried out in pain as her ear was being pulled, and quickly begged for mercy.

"Hmph!" Mo Xunhuan released her ear, picked up her water glass, took a sip, and glared at her irritably.

"What makes you think you can show off? I'm not a child, I'm an adult. Isn't it good for a husband and wife to work together? Besides, I work at my daughter's kindergarten, so I can take care of her at the same time."

"I know, but I'm just worried that you'll get tired and be easily bullied outside, not to mention..." Lu Xiaoxue stopped mid-sentence.

Even if she didn't say it aloud, Mo Xunhuan could guess what she was thinking. "You're just worried about me contacting outsiders, afraid that one day I'll run off with another woman, right?"

"No, I didn't say that!" Lu Xiaoxue hurriedly shook her head in denial.

"If you don't say it, then you're thinking it."

Lu Xiaoxue: ………

----------

After lunch, the family of three went out on their only means of transportation – an electric scooter.

However, Lu Xiaoxue usually uses this car to commute to and from get off work, and only on weekends will she take Mo Xunhuan and her daughter out for a drive.

"Qingqing, come here, squat down in front." Lu Xiaoxue called to her daughter.

"No, you always make me squat in front, my legs hurt so much. I want to sit in the back," Lu Qingqing objected.

"That won't work, the back seats are too small, your dad needs to sit there!"

"It's okay, we can squeeze in. Qingqing, come over here!" Mo Xunhuan made room and waved to her daughter.

"Husband!" Lu Xiaoxue complained coquettishly at Mo Xunhuan's actions.

She just wanted to be close to Mo Xunhuan; having her daughter sandwiched behind her was no fun at all.

"That's enough! The child is all grown up now, how can you always make her squat in front of you?" Mo Xunhuan slapped her.

"Hmph, he's forgotten his wife now that he has a daughter!"

"Are you crazy?!"

And so, the family of three squeezed onto an electric scooter and drove away from the residential area onto the road.

About ten minutes later, we arrived at the downtown shopping mall.

As soon as she entered the mall, Lu Qingqing ran around excitedly, cheering wildly.

After all, it's been more than a month since I last took my daughter out for a stroll, so we had to let her have some fun.

"Dad, I want KFC!"

"Daddy, I want to ride in a toy car!"

"dad……"

Lu Qingqing dragged Mo Xunhuan around and had a great time, while Lu Xiaoxue was left out and ignored by everyone.

Seeing the father and daughter enjoying themselves so happily, Lu Xiaoxue was furious. She finally managed to free up some time to play, but the girl took up all of it.

"You brat, you're having a great time, leaving me here just watching," Lu Xiaoxue complained angrily.

Just then, her phone rang. When she picked it up, she saw that it was Su Qi calling.

Why is it her? Why is she calling at this hour? What does she want?

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Xiaoxue answered the phone.

"Hello, Manager Su, is there something you need?"

"It's nothing, I'm just bored. It's Saturday today, aren't you going to take your family out for a stroll?" Su Qi asked.

"Uh...we're already out for a stroll."

"Oh, so where are you?"

"We've had enough fun and are getting ready to go back." Afraid that the other party would come looking for her, Lu Xiaoxue quickly changed her words.

"Go back? That's fine, I'll come to your house right now."

"No!" Lu Xiaoxue quickly stopped her, rubbing her forehead and sighing. "Fine, since you're coming to play too, we won't go back yet. Just come to the mall, we'll stay here."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Xiaoxue sighed heavily, squatted down, and held her head in her hands.

"Oh my god, why is she so persistent? Can't she just leave me alone?"

Ten minutes later, Mo Xunhuan was riding the miniature train in the mall with her daughter when she noticed a familiar figure on the way – it was Su Qi who had arrived.

"Xunhuan!" Su Qi waved to Mo Xunhuan from the crowd.

"Daddy, that pretty auntie is Aunt Su Qi, she's here too!" Lu Qingqing said happily while sitting on the little train.
