Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 515 I dare.

Village head Luo looked at grandma Lin who was clearly panting with rage and then he turned to look at Lin Chen who looked like he was enjoying himself and shook his head. ” old madam Lin, as you can see that stone was smaller than a rice grain-I think its too much for you to call it an attack and don’t we have something more important to discuss right now?”

Grandma Lin knew that the village head Luo was protecting Su Wan and the Lin brothers, and of course, he was protecting them, the Lin brothers were hiring the people from the village and even buying some embroidery from the women. They were helping the villagers by giving them extra income, and this was why village head Luo was biased towards them. Her anger would have overshadowed her rationality if not for An Xia who pulled her back. The woman assessed Su Wan with a shrewd glint in her eyes and smiled, ” Young miss, I think that you shouldn’t bother with the matter that are related to us elders, why are you entangling in this messy matter?”

While An Xia was assessing Su Wan, Su Wan was doing the same, she looked at the woman in front of her and sneered, ”  I think Madam An knows it rather well, I don’t think that I need to tell you about this matter do I?”

An Xia’s pupils dilated, she was a shrewd woman and could sense that Su Wan, this woman was not as easy as she looked, in the past few weeks, An Xia had done a lot of things to dig for more and more information about Lin Chen and the shop he was managing, she was also the one who led the entire plan and purposely approached those girls who were desperate to get out of the situation they were in and start a new life without the tag of ‘slave’. 

She thought that she had done a good job but something about Su Wan’s gaze made her unsettled, a trace of panic flashed through her mind and her expression changed abruptly and then she spoke with a stiff face, ” I am afraid I don’t understand what nonsense are you saying, young lady.”

Su Wan was amused by the acting skills of the woman in front of her. Sure enough, white lotuses were really something, this woman – hmm, if she wanted she can even give Su Lan a chase for her money. ” Miss An, you have nothing to do with the Lin family, you are neither our aunt nor you are our relatives what are you doing here?”

Just like that Su Wan brought attention to An Xia and then without waiting for An Xia to respond she turned to glance at Grandma Lin, ” you say that Aunt Zhang betrayed your son then where is the proof? Just because she asked for a divorce she suddenly became an adulterer? Can’t you see her face? Or the injuries you have given to her? And these injuries are only of today, who knows how many times you have beaten your daughter in law, do you dare to answer this question? And don’t even think about lying we can always call doctor Gu’s daughter and have her check aunt Zhang up.”

Grandma Lin’s expression turned strange and she simply turned her gaze away. ” so what? She is my daughter in law, I can beat her whenever I want? It’s just a few hits anyway. We are hard-working farmers and our bodies are hard and sturdy a few hits should not be taken into account what are you doing!” She shrieked halfway through her speech when she saw Su Wan was picking a rock the size of a child’s fist and aiming at her.

Seeing Grandma Lin’s panicked expression, Su Wan smiled wickedly. ” What’s wrong? Aren’t we honest villagers? A small rock like this wouldn’t hurt you, right? I mean you hit a woman until she started bleeding and yet you say that the hits weren’t hard so, compared to your hands, this rock is a lot punier-“

” SU WAN!”

” I know what I am called” sneered Su Wan as she dropped the rock, ” You go around barking like a dog, you want to question your daughter in law’s character than what about your son? Shall we have someone diagnose, Miss An and see for ourselves just how clean your reputation is after all, even if your son is a man, he is a commoner. Getting a woman pregnant before marriage can severe his head from his body- illicit affairs are after all looked down upon, so do you dare?”

” No!” Before An Xia could say anything, Grandma Lin shouted, she was indeed scared stiff by Su Wan’s threat and An Xia’s expression immediately turned ashen, what was the difference between saying no and admitting outright if she did this? The gazes of the people around her turned and An Xia got flustered, she wanted to say something to explain herself but there was nothing she could do, even her heart was filled with endless regrets. She shouldn’t have tried to stir trouble for Zhang Xiaohui, the fire has also burned her. 

An Xia gritted her teeth in anger and levelled a poisonous gaze at Su Wan. ‘This is all that bitch’s fault. If she didn’t come here, then Zhang Xiaohui would have been the one to leave with her face covered!’

Su Wan didn’t bother with An Xia, she has already sent her uncles and Lin Yu to deal with Xing Bengt without his protection, the woman won’t be smug for long. Instead, she turned to Zhang  Xiaohui and asked, ” What about you aunt? Do you dare to get checked up?”

Zhang Xiaohui narrowed her eyes and her hateful gaze seemed to be burning holes in Grandma Lin and An Xia’s back as she drew in a breath and said, ” I dare.”

Just two words and the suspicions from earlier were lifted at once.
