Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers Chapter 88 - To Act With Humility

Chapter 88 - To Act With Humility

Once they were done resting , All of them once again started on their journey , fortunately Uncle Wu had parked his cart a little inside the village because of the chilly weather and was warming his hands on a campfire that he has built next to his ox cart , seeing their party coming towards him , he politely smiled " want to go to the town? The price will be the same - you can sit anywhere you want "
Su Wan heard Fang Xiaolin mutter something that sounded like ' old hypocrite ,' but at Feng Dai 's glare she pursed her lips and turned silent.
Su Wan had a faint inkling that Fang Xiaolin only listened to her husband this time was because she didn't want to walk to the town in such a weather that shifted so often . In the morning the sky was a shade of clear blue but now it had turned the shade of inky concoction that had been brought to boil .
It might rain anytime . If it was her she wouldn't fancy walking to town in this weather either .
" Father , do I really have to continue studying ? " behind them a whiny voice complained " can't I just work in the farm like you and grandma ?"
" Shut up ! Did I and your grandma worked so hard to send you? to the academy for so many years just so that we have to listen you say that you don't want to study anymore !Do you have any? idea how many would die to be in your place ? A familiar voice snapped at the whiny boy "? you better start working hard , the daoist told your grandma that one of the Lin grandson was bound to become an official - apart from you who else can bring such a glory to our house . If I hear anymore complaints from you , I swear you will find yourself locked in the pig shed - lets see how you like the taste of pig slop "
Lin Ze had been in a tetchy mood ever since he failed to get the money from his nephews , he never thought that the new niece in law of his would be so difficult to deal with , she didn't respond to neither soft or hard approach and point blankly refused to fork out even a single tael much less ten taels .Li Agou was threatening him worse than ever , the thug clearly told him just yesterday that if he does not bring back the ten taels that he borrowed from him in a week he would break his legs and snatch whatever he can from his house .
In the end Lin Ze had to coax and cajole his mother in forking out two taels and on the other hand he sold off Zhang Xiaohui 's jewellery furtively . He was still dreading the day when Zhang Xiaohui would realise that her jewellery is missing , if this was before - he would have dumped the responsibility on his nephews but now his nephews have separated their family from his and was living separately , and the day they separated Zhang Xiaohui actually counted her jewellery to make sure that nothing was missing .
At his pitiful condition , Lin Ze couldn't help but scold his nephews for being cold hearted , no matter what they were still family . They might have faced a little rough edges here and there but someone has to take run for the family gauntlet ?
They had fifty taels to buy a house but they won't give five taels to their poor uncle ! How unfilial .
If only they gave him a total of ten taels he would not be in such a danger ! What Lin Ze forgot that he was an addicted gambler , even if the Lin brothers paid his debt back this time he would have acquired another one just as fast , this dialogue of his was his most prominent one .
Now all his hopes were depending on Lin Che , if his son became an official then he would pay back that little bitch and his unfilial nephews for good , he would show them - just how wrong they were in treating him like that , in fact he would even make sure to throw their family out of the village - since they don't care about this uncle of theirs then he won't care about them either !
First he would wrench everything away from his nephews - their house and fields then he would dump them out of the village , something so easy won't be difficult once his son becomes an official and as for that bitch who shamed and humiliated him , he would make her pay a hundred times ! He would definitely have her sold as the number one prostitute in the town where she have to serve at least a total of twenty to thirty men in a day , that would teach her a lesson , how she should not offend her elders and should act in humility .
What Lin Ze didn't want to accept was that his little rough times actually led to Mother Lin's health deteriorating so much that she almost died , Lin Yu couldn't receive a proper treatment on time and his leg went limp and Lin Rui had to give up on his passion for study because Grandma Lin was greedy enough to take the Daoist 's words to her heart and wanting her blood related grandson to become an official - this little rough times were enough for anyone to relinquish their old Lin? family a hundred of times .
Not to mention , the way he was scheming against his own blood related nephews - was there an uncle like him ? Even if the Lin brothers gave him the money , he might have got offended on something else and scolded them again , People Like Lin Ze don't remember what someone had done for them , he have completely forgotten that as a grown up man with a wife and two children he remained dependent on his nephews who was half his age for more than ten years - instead all he remembered was that the Lin brothers refused to help him once , Once !
Lin Ze who was busy scolding his son didn't know that the people he was cursing in his head was standing right in front of him . Thus , when he looked up and found his nephews together with their shared wife standing near the ox cart, he choked on air abruptly - why was his luck so rotten , why did he end up seeing the face of these jinxes !
Su Wan : I would like to say the same , seeing your face I want to hurl my breakfast .
