Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 620 A field inspection.

　　Su Wan walked in front of Lin Yu while humming a song, she insisted that Lin Yu walk beside her but the latter refused saying that he will walk behind her as he was afraid that she might fall or stumble because of the uneven path that was as bumpy as their life before Su Wan’s arrival. Of course, Su Wan only asked him a few times but when he continued to refuse, she left him to his decision and allowed him to follow her like a bodyguard, she breathed in the fresh breath of air that she has been missing for quite some time, ever since she has gotten pregnant, her husbands have locked her up in the house —— well, not exactly locked her up but every time she asked them about taking her out on a walk, they would start making a fuss, bringing this and carrying that, as if they were going on a war. 

Because she didn’t want to make a spectacle out of herself, Su Wan in the end would simply drop the idea. 

Fortunately, today it was Lin Yu’s turn, though he worried about her just as much as others, he didn’t take treat her like she was some sort of porcelain doll that he needed to wrap up, tie to his sash and carry everywhere like he was worried about her getting shattered with just one touch. His worry was at a prosaic level something that she was able to bear with, if it would have been Lin Yan or Lin Chen they would have simply packed a bag big enough to shove her in and if it was Lin Jing, that big guy would simply carry her on his back throughout the entire walk——all in all it was a good thing that Lin Yu was here. 

” Yu, you can walk beside me,” she said once again feeling a bit weird with Lin Yu walking behind her. It wasn’t that she was feeling awkward because he was following her like a shadow bodyguard but because he was eyeing her so closely that she couldn’t help but feel a little uncomfortable under his unblinking gaze as if he was afraid that he was going to lose sight of her on this empty path that was bare of any villager given that they were all working in their fields at this hour. 

” I am fine,” said Lin Yu as he carefully limped after Su Wan, he knew that with his limp leg if Su Wan was to fall then he would have a hard time catching her properly that was why he couldn’t walk next to her and let her be subjected to any danger. And what was more as her husband it was simply too embarrassing to leave the security of his wife to another man when he was with her? 

’ Well, you are fine but I am not!’ Su Wan cried inwardly but in the end, she left him to do his thing after realising that he wasn’t going to give up on the idea of following her. 

Fortunately, the two arrived at the fields without any hitch. 

It has been a few months already ever since they planted the seeds of melon in the fields. Under the warm weather, lovely sea breeze and the tender care of Su Wan, who knew her way around the farms the plots of the Lin family were boosting with vitality. The vines have stretched as far as they could reach and the leaves that sprouted out of the vines seemed to have been coloured green by someone, greenish-yellow flowers fluttered under the wind and on some vines, tiny musk melons could be seen as well. 

Su Wan took a glimpse of her fields and her face split into a wide smile as she turned to look at Lin Yu who was walking behind her, ” Do you see this, Yu? Melons already started to grow, it wouldn’t be long before we would be able to eat them!” Because she didn’t have any cheat trick in her hands, she could only rely on the old teaching that her grandmother, she has been taking care of these vines from the pre plantation stage such as adding proper amount of fertilisers that she had made at her home with her own hands and made sure that the melon vines got the right amount of phosphorus and calcium. 

And when the vegetative growth started, she was even more careful with the amount of fertilisers such that the levels of potassium and magnesium, didn’t rise to disastrous levels. Only she knew how hard it was for her to take care of them while making sure that both the potatoes and the potatoes’ skin rotted to a perfect degree—- and believe her composting fertilisers at home was not a good job. 

Luckily she was pregnant at the flowering stage and left the responsibility of making fertilisers to Lin Zi and madam Zhang. 

But she has to say the two have done a very good job, with one glance she could see just how well the vines were taken off. 

” Yeah, I have always said that you have green fingers,” said Lin Yu as he stared at the fields but more than the greenery that was spread all over the land, he thought that Su Wan’s smile was a lot more beautiful. ” Among everyone’s fields, ours is the best-taken care of and that’s because you are so good with them, Wan Wan.” 

He wasn’t exaggerating at all, the fields were indeed in a much better condition when compared to the fields of other villagers. Lin Yu has gotten tired of people asking how they were managing their fields so well, in fact, every time he walked past the fields one or two villagers would definitely come and ask him about how their family’s fields were doing so well and what was there secret, of course, Lin Yu didn’t dare to let them know about it and simply smiled. 

” Oh, isn’t it you Wan Wan?” Lin Zi who was carrying two buckets of water in her hands, walked toward them with a grin. ” Are you here to inspect the fields?”
