Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 317 - Unrest



" Let go, let go of my husband! You can not do this, you can't kill people, as you want " Chu Yanyu was really terrified, she was just a simple village woman, though she was selfish, scheming and arrogant, she was timid.  Her guts were daring enough to bully the innocent and introverted Su Wan who never dared to say a single word in retaliation but when compared to Shen Junxi who was like a mountainous hulk with a physique that could make children cry for days, she didn't even dare to look at Shen Junxi in the eye. 

Now, that Shen Junxi said such vicious words, Chu Yanyu couldn't make light of them even if she wanted to! Shen Junxi was a man of his word, if he said one thing then he would definitely do it! Last time, Shen Junxi threatened to break Su Bai's legs and he did it the next moment! Su Bai had to stay in bed for months to recover.  Even after complaining to Yamen, nothing happened to Shen Junxi instead the Yamen officer came to warn them off! 

It was so unfair. 

Grandma Su who was stunned because of Shen Junxi's sudden action too woke up and rushed to Shen Junxi, everyone could be killed but not her son and grandson! Even if the world were to end today even then Su Bai and Su Yu Cheng should be well and happy! The two of them were her reverse scale, she would never let anyone hurt the two of them! 

So even when she was scared of Shen Junxi she still scurried at him with a cry of fury.

However, before either Chu Yanyu or Grandma Su could reach Shen Junxi, Madam Zhu who was standing beside her husband strode forward and swung the broom that she was holding in her hand. Now, the broom that Madam Zhu held in her hand was made of thin bamboo sticks, so when she slapped both Chu Yanyu and Grandma Su with it, her action immediately drew blood. 

Both Madam Chu and Grandma Su stumbled and fell back on their butts, Madam Chu was startled and soon started to sob like a tragic heroine of a melodramatic drama, crying as if the heavens have wronged her.

While Grandma Su who was hit in the face for the first time immediately shrieked in pure rage, with blood dripping down her face she looked really fierce " you deserve to die! You deserve to die! I'm your elder no matter how unruly you are you cannot hit me! You are trying to defy the heavens do you no longer keep the laws and morals in your eyes? How can you beat an old woman like me?"

Grandma Su never thought that she would be hit, she was only afraid of doing something that might result in Shen Junxi hurting Su Ba. But she couldn't believe that she was hit as well! She was an old woman, shouldn't Shen Junxi and his wife pay attention to her age? 

" oh shut up, old lady. Your screechy voice is making my ears hurt" said Madam Zhu as she poked a finger in her ear and did an action of cleaning her ear " don't worry, I won't die even when your grave goes all mouldy and crumbles under the dirt, I will still be living well so you better save your breathe or who knows you might really end up in your grave by tomorrow morning"

" you..how can you curse my mother in law? cried Chu Yanyu " We know we are in the wrong but you can hit us but at least let go of our mother in law, she is so old if you hurt her how will you make it up for it if something goes wrong? Sister Zhu, you should know that hitting the elders and being unfilial can get you caught and beheaded! "

" exactly, if you hurt my son and me, I will definitely go to the Yamen and complain against you, I will tell the Yamen officers that you tried to kill me! See if they don't teach you a lesson!" when Chu Yanyu indirectly gave Grandma Su a hint, the old woman hurriedly grasped it. She was not afraid, that's right! The last time Shen Junxi dared to hit Su Bai but didn't even touch her wasn't it because he was scared of hurting her and causing trouble for himself? Hah! Then she will use this to threaten them, such a waste that she didn't know about it earlier if she did know about it she would have had these two jinxes beheaded then and there!

As to why the Su family knew about this law? It was of course to deal with  Su Wan. After Su Wan took the shops and the remaining money left from Shen Shui's dowry, the Su family was having a hard time. They were worried that if they didn't think of something then they might die of starvation!  Fortunately, Su Yu Cheng has a friend whose father was a yamen officer, after Su Yu Cheng chatted with his friend he learned that when children became unfilial their parents could sue them in the Yamen and if their children still don't learn their lesson they can be beheaded! 

Su Yu Cheng had no affection for his half-sister and didn't mind if she got beheaded, in fact, he thought it was something Su Wan deserved after all because of her he was having so much trouble since their family had no money, he could no longer curry favour with his seniors and couldn't treat his teachers to a meal. It was really embarrassing!  He was her younger brother even if he took a few silver so what? Why was she acting so stingy for? 

Thus, like this Su Yu Cheng thought that if Su Wan wasn't going to treat them like family then he didn't need to think about her either, and if Su Wan dies then it was good for everyone.. Su Wan's name was in the end ' Su' everything that she owned will, later on, become theirs, that's why he immediately told his father about it.  Once Su Bai knew about it everyone in the Su family came to know about it, they were going to cause trouble for Su Wan in a day or two but before they could trouble came to find them!
