Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 499 Pad your stomach first and discuss things later


Chapter 499 Pad your stomach first and discuss things later  The head of the Yamen office heard the sarcasm that was beautifully wrapped in Lord Fei’s words and grimaced as he uncomfortably answered, ” You can..of course, You can  Lord Fei but please do remember that the complaints filed against their shop are genuine and I can only delay the matter for a month or so, if they don’t come up with a decent answer in the next thirty days, I am afraid I will have to arrest the one in charge again, please do understand that I have nothing against your granddaughter, I am just trying to do my job here.”

Lord Fei nodded and didn’t refute the Yamen head’s words, ” don’t worry, I assure you that they will come up with a way to rule the complaints out that are submitted against them completely. Won’t you?”

” We will” promised the Lin Brothers because of that stupid traitor their wife was subjected to such humiliation, they will never let that bastard go!

By the time their family returned home, it was already very late, Su Wan invited Lord Fei to dinner at her house and the latter politely accepted.  The last time, he ate at his granddaughter’s house was when he accepted her as his god granddaughter and ever since then he has been missing the authentic and rare dishes that the Lin family served on their table. He did ask his chefs to recreate the dishes that were served at the banquet on his wife’s birthday which Su Wan, unfortunately, missed since she was bedridden because of unfortunate circumstances. Those chefs did as he asked them to but no matter how many times they recreated the dishes they will miss something and the dishes wouldn’t taste the same, in the end, Lord Fei threw a tantrum and gave up trying to recreate the dishes at his home, ever since then he was eating at the restaurant that Lin Yan ran at the docks.

When the family returned home they noticed that five figures were anxiously pacing in front of the door, as soon as the carriages stopped, these five figures rushed towards them and the first one to reach Su Wan who had just gotten down the carriage with the help of Lin Jing was Fang Tao, the latter threw herself around Su Wan’s waist and cried out, ” Sister Wan, it’s good that you are back when your husband said that you were taken away by the Yamen officers, I was scared to death! It’s great to see you return.”

When Lord Fei sent word about Su Wan’s arrest, Fang Tao and Fang Zimo were working at the Lin house on their latest piece of embroidery but then the worker from the Fei family came rushing into the courtyard and announced that Su Wan was taken away by the Yamen officers, the new was so explosive that Fang Tao felt her heart jump! She would have rushed to save her Sister Wan, if not for those annoying brothers asking her to stay behind with Fang Zimo and take care of the house and the kids.

Su Wan rubbed the back of the crying Fang Tao and softly coaxed her, “It’s alright, look at me don’t I look totally fine?”

” Exactly,” said Fang Zimo from the side with his arms crossed he looked at Su Wan, his eyes carefully examining her body as he spoke in a snide voice ” I already told you that if you want to worry about someone, you should have worried about the officer who took her away, I bet she drove him crazy.” Though he said that Su Wan could see that his face was lined with anxiousness. 

” Sister in law, you scared us.” Qi Zhi who was still a little baby, received a shock when he heard that his sister in law was taken away by the yamen. He wasn’t a social bird and wasn’t an extrovert either but his parents did teach him that he should never try to offend a yamen officer or else he will never be able to return home this was something the Qi couple taught him as a lesson so that he will avoid the yamen officers the next time he saw them but it also served as a very dangerous reminder that made Qi Zhi to be forever terrified of the Yamen officers.

Thus, when he found out that his sister in law was taken to yamen, Qi Zhi cried for hours worried that he will never be able to meet his sister in law ever again.

Qi Mei nodded from the side and then she too rushed ahead and hugged Su Wan’s thigh, she too was really scared for her sister in law, only she knew how many dangerous scenarios played in her head as she was waiting for Su Wan to return.

Qi Shuyan didn’t say anything but anyone could see that he was just as worried about Su Wan as his siblings. 

Su Wan felt her heartache for these little guys, they were really worried for her. Just look at those bunny eyes that were red and puffy it looked like they had been crying for a long time, she picked Qi Zhi in her arms and patted his back as she consoled the three siblings, ” I am fine, nothing happened to me but you little Zhi” pinching the chubby waist of the little boy slightly, Su Wan scolded him ” but you seemed to have not eaten anything, look you lost a circle. Didn’t I say that you are not allowed to lose a circle until you are fourteen?”

” Hehe,” Qi Zhi giggled sheepishly as he buried his head in Su Wan’s neck to avoid answering that question. His sister in law was taken to such a dangerous place how can he have the appetite to eat anything?

” Oh, you are here!” Fang Xiaolin who was working in the kitchen, immediately came out when she heard the voices coming from outside. Because Su Wan was already burdened enough, she didn’t rush forward to hug, that was however just an excuse the glowering glares that the Lin brothers were shooting Fang Tao and the others were enough to make her stop, she unhurriedly walked past the Lin brothers and then tugged Fang Tao away from Su Wan before she incited anymore hate towards herself, ” Its great that you are fine, I was really worried about you- you should have seen Tao Tao rushing in my house and crying like a five-year-old rushing to complain to her mother, seriously I never saw her cry like that.”

”Sister.” chided Fang Tao softly 

Both Su Wan and Fang Xiaolin laughed at her blushing face just as Feng Zhai walked out of the Lin courtyard, ” oh you all are just in time, I just took  the duck soup off the stove that has been stewing for six hours, come in and have a bowl of soup to pad your stomach we can discuss everything later on.”
