Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 424 – Be Good

Su Wan pursed her lips honestly who was the kid here? She looked at Qi Shuyan who was smiling like an understanding child and then she turned to look at Lin Chen who was pouting like an aggrieved kid. 

Staring at the difference between the two Su Wan felt her head throb. Fine! What was she even thinking about of course, the one she spoiled the most was Lin Chen. 

So him acting like a child was what she should already be expecting! But Lin Chen was usually nice to her and even now he only kicked Qi Shuyan off his chair because he was worried about her. 

So she couldn't even bring herself to scold him. She raised her hand and fiercely pinched Lin Chen's cheeks as she lightly admonished him for being too much of a bully to his younger brother. "Ah Chen, I understand that you are worried about me but you are not allowed to bully Qi Shuyan, Alright?"

Lin Chen let Su Wan pinch his cheek as much as she wanted and didn't complain at all. 

He was happy as long as Su Wan was smiling. Now that she was no longer frowning. He couldn't help and laugh as he poked her cheek.  "Who do you think I am doing this for? Anyway I want to bully my wife alone."

Su Wan's smile widened as she found Lin Chen a bit too amusing, then she looked at her Eldest Uncle who was glaring at Lin Chen with a heated gaze like the two of there were enemies from the past. 

Her lips twitched sure enough, her third husband had some suicidal thoughts in his head. Sheesh can't he at least wait for them to be alone before saying such things? 

Though Su Wan wasn't one to get embarrassed she still felt her cheeks heat up. She glared at him before stomping on his foot. "Idiot" though her voice sounded aggrieved. 

Lin Chen didn't miss the heat in her eyes. Umm…. He completely forgot it has been months since he last bullied his wife. 

Suddenly his throat went dry as he reached to grab his teacup and took a big gulp of his tea. Clearing his throat he reached for Su Wan's hand under the table and grabbed her wrist before intertwining their fingers. 

He leaned closer to Su Wan and whispered. "Be good I will give it to you in a bit."

Su Wan's cheeks flushed a brilliant red but she didn't pull away from Lin Chen silently agreeing with him. 

For the past few months, she has been too worried about Lin Yan and didn't pay attention to her other husbands. Now that Lin Chen has mentioned this she couldn't possibly refuse can she? And she missed him a little too.

"What are you whispering about you brat?" Shen Junxi was all about no pregnancy before the age of eighteen- after all his sister died because of the complications she faced while she was giving birth to Su Wan add in the fact that she was depressed from the beginning. 

Therefore he was worried that maybe Su Wan might suffer from the same complications which were why he was reluctant to let these great nephews-in-law get close to his niece. 

Even if they were taking precautions every medicine was like poison in its own way what if Su Wan got sick? So he wasn't rather appreciative of them using the medicinal herbs either in his mind. 

It was better if Su Wan stayed away from these five brothers until she turns eighteen and it wasn't a long period to wait as well just a few months more.

Lin Chen scooted away from Su Wan and smiled innocently. "It's nothing Eldest Uncle. I just told Wan Wan that she doesn't have to work so hard. I -her husband can get her whatever she wants."

"Then why not bring her that cat-a-thing, that she is asking for?" sneered Shen Junxi causing Lin Chen to choke on his words. Great how could he forget? Just because Shen Junxi was finally acting like an adult with them. 

It didn't mean that the latter has gotten rid of his sharp tongue! He was still just as ruthless towards him and his brothers. Get that cat-a-thing for Su Wan? 

Haha even Shen Junxi, this man with many connections was having a hard time getting it. How can he get his hands on it? Humph just because he flirted a little, this Eldest Uncle of his had to pull him down. Humph! Humph!

Lord Fei coughed uncomfortably, his martial arts were rather good and so was his senses even though he was getting older. His five senses were working nicely, so he heard what Lin Chen had said to Su Wan with ease. 

Although he too didn't like Lin Chen getting all flirty with Wan Wan this little girl. He took her as his granddaughter and he had noticed that Su Wan hadn't refused the latter's advances.

Well they were young after all  compared to Shen Junxi, Lord Fei was more open-minded as his nephew the Emperor became a father at the age of sixteen while the Empress was still fifteen. 

Compared to them Su Wan and her husband were already taking a lot of precautions. He cleared his throat as he tried to change the topic. "Little Wan Wan why don't you tell me? What do you want? Maybe grandpa will be able to find it for you?"

Su Wan's attention was diverted as soon as Lord Fei said this. Her eyes brightened as she looked at him with a gaze that was filled with glimmering hope. 

That's right why didn't she think of this before? Wasnt Lord Fei a first-rank official! Surely, he might have seen a lot of rising things that her Uncle hasn't! "Grandpa the thing is- I want to sow seeds of a novel fruit called cantaloupe, can you get the seeds of this trait from somewhere?" 

Lord Fei frowned, his brows scrunching up Su Wan thought that he hasn't heard of it either and her eyes dimmed but then. "I can get it for you but you have to wait for a few days for it." 

Su Wan couldn't help but ask "Why grandpa?"

"Because I have to have it exported from Egypt."
