Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 619 Hug me too

　　” Are you sure, you want to do this?” asked Lin Yu as he limped after Su Wan who was dressed up to go out of the house. ” I mean what if you slip? No one is at home and I am not capable enough to take care of you.” 

Su Wan finally chose the hat that she was going to wear to the fields and snorted, ” You seem more than capable of catching me if I fall to me, what are you talking about? Didn’t I tell you that you should never underestimate yourself so why do you always put yourself down?” 

” I am not putting myself down, I am genuinely concerned about what’s going to happen if you out like this,” said Lin Yu with a helpless sigh. 

It has been a few weeks since the Shen family came to live with them, but of course, they couldn’t stay for long. The Shen cousins had their own things to do and they had to leave even though they kept whining till the last moment and even Shen Tian and Xu Jia had to go back since Shen Tian had to look after his medicinal hall and Xu Jia was a teacher in the academy, of course with Shen Beichuan living at the Lin house the two of them would come back to the village in the evening. 

And because of the bet that Grandma Shen has put forward, the Lin brothers too had to work harder than ever but they still made sure that one of them stayed behind to take care of Su Wan while the rest of them went to work. It was just Lin Yu’s bad luck that today happened to be his turn to look after Su Wan and she was in the mood for some light walking to check up on the melon fields that have grown a lot in these past few months under the tender care of Lin Zi and Madam Zhang. 

” I am not heading to war, I am just going out on a walk,” with her straw hat on her head and then picked up the wooden water bottle that Lin Jing has carved for her and headed straight out of the house. 

Lin Yu who knew that there was no point in fighting with his pregnant wife sighed and quietly followed after her. It wasn’t like he hasn’t tried quarrelling with her, he has at the start of her pregnancy. It was a long road of a lot of crying, screaming —- ‘ you don’t love me anymore’ and finally made to kneel on the floor by his brothers, there was no way he was going to walk on the same road, so despite all the reasons that told him that he should stop Su Wan from leaving the house, he still let her walk out. Since he wasn’t going to win no matter what he did and with the two Shen uncles and grandma Shen who were sitting outside under the shed and playing Xiangqi, he simply had no choice whatsoever!

” Oh Wan Wan, you are going out?” Shen Zizhen who was busy trying to make his mother lose, looked up from the board and looked at Su Wan who was heading out and frowned after looking at the sun that was shining overhead despite it being early morning, ” Its too hot, why don’t you wait till the evening to go out?”

” If I wait till the evening then I am afraid I will never be able to go out with my husbands fussing over me,” said Su Wan as she hitched the umbrella over her head and smiled sweetly, ” And it’s not too hot, second uncle… I will be fine.” 

Shen Zizhen opened his mouth to say something more but then Grandma Shen knocked her cane on his arm and snorted, ” What are you stopping her for? If she wants to go out then let her go on her walk, she is a pregnant woman, not a dainty little parcel that you all need to pamper every second worrying whether she will break.” Then she paused and added, “if you are that worried then just send one of your men to look after her, but make sure that he doesn’t disturb my granddaughter’s peaceful walk.” 

” Thank you grandma!” said Su Wan as she approached Grandma Shen and hugged her from behind. Ever since the talk with Lin Yan, Su Wan’s head has gotten more clear and now she was a lot more intimate with the Shen family.

Grandma Shen patted Su Wan’s arm and kissed her cheek. ” As long as you like it, just tell grandma, I will get it for you.” 

Then she turned to Shen Zizhen who sighed and clapped his hands and called one of his shadow guards before giving him the same instructions as Grandma Shen asked him to do, after he was done, he let the shadow guard leave and go back to work before he turned to Su Wan and asked, ” Happy now?” 

” Happy,” said Su Wan as she nodded her head with a smile before she pulled away from Grandma Shen. 

” Then where is my hug? Only going to hug grandma huh?” said Shen Zizhen with a teasing voice, Su Wan chuckled as she went forward and hugged Shen Zizhen who patted her back and said, ” Come on give me your blessing to win this game.” 

” Hey Zizhen, don’t go cheating like that now!” snapped Grandma Shen, after Shen Tian who despite his busy schedule took over Grandma Shen’s treatment the latter recovered a lot. Of course, if he wanted, Shen Tian could have given the responsibility to one of his disciples but he couldn’t do it, not after being betrayed by one of his disciples a few days ago. 

”I am not cheating! I am just getting the blessing of my niece, how can you call it cheating?” said Shen Zizhen with an eye roll as if he couldn’t understand what his mother was talking about. 

Grandma Shen was not the one to be defeated either, she too rolled her eyes and looked at Su Wan before smiling as she opened her arms wide and said, ” If you are going to give him your blessing then you might as well give me one too!” 

Shen Junxi who went inside the kitchen to get refreshments also noticed the hugging ceremony that was taking place and shouted —— ” Hey, me too! Wan Wan leave a hug for me too!”
