Chapter 724: playing tit for tat” With the documents in hand and the village head’s stamp on it, I would like to see if the magistrate will listen to you or us.” Su Wan shrugged and then paused as she pondered over what she needed to say next and then added, ” If, by any chance you get the magistrate to believe you, there is more than one way for me to change his decision, don’t forget that I am the granddaughter of the Shen family, one of the richest family of the country, if you think that you can go against us then think again because I am sure that if you go against us, you will have to spend your time in the Yamen.”         

Lin Ze turned silent when he heard Su Wan talk about the Shen family and then to make things even more difficult for him, she even pulled the yamen into the conversation.      

” But I am still their uncle !” He stubbornly persisted.     

This was what her friend taught him, he told him that as long as he tries hard he will be able to push his nephew into giving in to his whims as long as he was smart enough and cornered them by using filial piety.      

Su Wan clapped her hands and laughed out loud. ” You are their half-uncle, don’t forget that your mother and my father-in-law’s mother are different. Even if you are an uncle, you need to remember that my husbands are not related to you and even if they have to be filial to their father and not you, the same could be said for your mother. She is not related to us by blood and there is no point for you to act like this, even if you do persist you will be wasting your time.”      

” So if we refuse to give you anything, just what can you do to us? After all, we were two families, to begin with. ” she paused and then tilted her head. ” If we make fun of the documents that have the seal of the Yamen and the magistrate what do you think will happen to laws and rules?”

After speaking she then added swiftly, ” But if you listen to me then you will be able to live a life much better than mine.”     

Lin Ze frowned as he looked at Su Wan with a confused look on his face. ” What in the world are you trying to say? Just say it straight away, you are making me confused.”      

Was this her new way of changing the topic?     

Su Wan sat down on her seat and then drank the tea in front of her to moisten her throat and then started explaining everything to Lin Ze bit by bit, ” You see threatening us will make no sense to you, after all, you cannot push us in a corner we have the protection of the magistrate because of the documents that we have in our hands and then on top of it we won’t give up fighting you either.”      

” If you fight us then you will waste your time and the golden egg-laying hen that is right in front of you will run away as well.”      

Lin Ze frowned once again and this time his frown was even worse than the first one.      

Seeing that he was not understanding, Su Wan clicked her tongue and then spoke in even more clear words, ” You see, there is someone who is instigating you to take everything from us right? But what if I tell you that the person behind this was none other than someone from the capital.”      

Only then did Lin Ze react and said, ” Are you saying that the person who is trying to turn you bankrupt is a person from the capital?”      

Su Wan nodded solemnly. ” That is true, the person living in the capital wants to use you as their sword and then aim you towards us. If you succeed then they will not hand you anything instead I am sure the middleman must have asked you the secret of our shop, right?”      

Lin Ze did not say anything, because his friend has indeed asked him to share the plans for the toys after getting his hands on those plans.      

” And in case you fail then the person who would have to go to prison will be you and no one else, the middle man and that person will get away from this mess without losing anything. Don’t you think that you are on the losing side ?”      

” Ex uncle, you have been tricked into becoming someone else’s sword and yet you don’t even know about it don’t you think that you have become too much of a fool?”      

Su Wan saw that Lin Ze’s expression was changing with her words and then she swiftly delivered the final hit. ” But if you were to get your hands on evidence you can use against the person who is sitting in the capital then unlike us, you won’t have to move step by step, you will be able to go to the capital in one swift move.”      

” Not only will you be able to get to the capital but you will also be able to get your son into the academy of the capital and if Lin Che was to get inside an academy with the help of someone influential in the capital you can sit tight and wait to enjoy the comforts and what’s more, your daughter will become a missy of the capital, right now you are the one who is paying her dowry but in case your daughter attracts the attention of a lord or master, even if she was to become a concubine you will be able to live a wonderful life.”      

” Even we will look at you with our heads lowered, you just have to make use of your head and take care of the situation properly after all, you have such good cards in your hands and how can you even let it go like that?”
