Chapter 175 - Won’t Sit Still
Su Wan heard what happened with the old Lin family , she had no emotions regarding the Lin family and didn't even pity Lin Ze in the slightest . If anything she thought that this was what that greedy man deserved , his own predicament was a predicament but others peril was nothing in his eyes . He was the one who bet all his money on gambling and lost it , yet he had the face to borrow money from Uncle Wu . Borrowing money was one thing but having such a thick face to not to return it was completely different thing . He even had an appetite to eat noodles when Uncle Wu was begging Lin Ze 's mother to return his own money back ! How shameless !
Su Wan didn't have any words to say so she remained silent but her mind didn't stop thinking over what happened in the Lin family . Though Lin Ze didn't have the guts to come and ask for money from her , it doesn't mean that Grandma Lin and Zhang Xiaohua would sit still .
Especially Grandma Lin , that old hag loved her good for nothing son to her bones . She might not have time to come and ask for money because she was treating her injuries as well as taking care of Lin Ze but she didn't believe that the old hag was someone who would retreat back silently after suffering a loss . In fact by Grandma Lin 's usual standard this loss might be big but she was used to bullying her step grandsons into giving her the money - so Su Wan knew that sooner or later that old hag would come asking for trouble .
She didn't express her worries to Lin Jing and Lin Rui while the two of them were chatting with Le Sheng as the latter drove the ox cart to the town . Though she was worried , she still gave herself a mental pat on her back , when she was living she had told Mother Lin not to open the house doors no matter what happened . She warned her that without her , someone might come and find trouble with Mother Lin ..
Though Su Wan was expressing her concerns regarding Luo Chenxi as she was worried that the shameless girl might come and try to change mother Lin 's mind . She didn't think that her careful attitude will come in handy at this moment .
The ox cart went farther and farther away , and took Su Wan , Lin Jing and Lin Rui away from Dong Tong village . However , right after the ox cart drove out of the village entrance , Madam Zhang who was washing clothes at the river , rushed back to her house with the bamboo tub in hand.
" Mother , that dead girl and those white eyed wolves left . It seems they are going to town for something " whispered Madam Zhang in Grandma Lin 's ear .
Grandma Lin showed a happy smile and immediately stood up from her chair , after fighting with that dead Wu family , she received an injury on her butt . Thus , she couldn't move around as easily as she could - the injury wasn't grave or serious but because Grandma Lin wanted to milk it for all it was worth it , she howled piteously and pretended to be injured so that Village head Luo would decrease their debt but that petty man only knocked two silver off the six taels and they still had four taels to pay back .
Grandma Lin has been hiding at home to draw less attention to herself and Lin Ze after what happened between her family and Wu family . Her precious grandson studied at the academy , if someone was to spread rumours about their family how will her grandson survive in the academy ? What face he will be left with ?
" The heavens are helping me !" sighed Grandma Lin with relief " Zhao Lan ( mother Lin 's maiden name ) was always easy to talk to , while those brats and their dead wife is not . Let's go directly to Zhao Lan , I have been her mother in Law for more than twenty years , I don't think she would dare to refuse me . Her dead husband called me mother till the day he died . How can she say no to me ?"
Madam Zhang hurriedly agreed " that's right . Didn't she always listen to you in the past ? So what if her dead daughter in law doesn't listen to us , as long as Zhao Lan listen to you mother what can that dead bitch do ?"
While Madam Zhang was filling Grandma Lin 's ears , Lin Zhi walked inside returning after feeding the chicken in the backyard. Lin Zhi was Lin Ze 's sister by blood yet despite being Grandma Lin 's own daughter she was treated as a slave for Lin Ze and his family . Earlier , she had gone to her grandparents house with Lin Yunxi and only just returned , however the second she came back - Madam Zhang dumped the entire lot of work on her head while let her own daughter Lin Yunxi to go to the town and shop .
Lin Zhi had already heard what went down between her family and her nephews . She already knew that they had no money at their house yet Zhang Xiaohua was letting her daughter squander their family's saving just like that - did these fools still think that they can ask Lin Jing and his brothers to subsidise their family ?
The past was in the past and now was different , her nephews were already married and they had married such a fierce wife . Forget about giving money to the old Lin family it would be lucky if they don't get thrown out of their own house by their wife !
Lin Zhi saw the proud appearance of her mother and sister in law and knew that they had no good plans in their head , so she turned around to go back inside the chicken coop . Staying with the filthy chicks that were covered in poop was better than staying here !
