Chapter 581 Am I ugly?
"The old master asked me to pay attention to my grandmother's health," said Su Wan, she was worried that if she told the exact truth to her uncles the two might rush up ahead and chop everyone in the Ji family, she knew that they were calm and rational but at the same time, she also knew that the two of them were quite over the top when their families were involved and this time it was their mother who was getting harmed so definitely, they would react a bit illogically or in a way that might prove troublesome to them. So, she could only tell them the truth in a roundabout way, at least this way they will be able to bear the truth. " The old master said that you should take proper care of her and keep an eye on the people around her."
Shen Junxi frowned but Shen Zizhen's eyes flashed with understanding, he almost figured out what the old master said the second Su Wan told him that the old master was asking them to take a good look at the people around their mother wasn't it more like a warning that the Ji family was doing something behind the scenes to harm their mother? His eyes narrowed in a line as he grounded his teeth, good very good, that Ji family ate off the table on which his mother ate and this was how they were repaying her. He so wanted to turn around and kick that uncle of his in his balls, hard enough for him to sing soprano!
How dare he!
" Second uncle?" Su Wan's calming voice called out to him and Shen Zizhen snapped out of his daze. He looked at his niece who was carefully looking at him and if he wasn't wrong there was also some trepidation as she carefully looked at him in the eyes and said, " Everything will be fine, second uncle."
Shen Zizhen knew that Su Wan was saying this because she wanted him not to worry about his mother and lose sight of what was more important but seriously he wished he could take care of this uncle of his once and for all. He smiled and nodded, understanding her gaze, " Don't worry, I won't be careless." He too knew that he couldn't hurt the Ji family without any evidence or his mother might break all her relationships with him, after all that was her maternal family.
Su Wan nodded while Shen Junxi's gaze darted between the two of them, confused he looked at his brother who was looking at their niece with a complicated expression and then turned to look at his brother with a frown. " Why are you looking at Wan Wan like that? And about what you won't be careless?"
She Zizhen cursed under his breath as he dragged his brother away from the group, Su Wan watched them go and sighed —— her uncle was this furious when she didn't say it outright, who knows how he might have responded if she has told the truth?
——-
The Lin brothers were just as confused but when Su Wan shook her head, they didn't say anything and just followed after her as they helped her down the stairs, the carriage in which the two uncles came was nowhere to be seen, most probably they have already rushed to take care of the Ji family, Su Wan turned her head and looked at the empty spot before shaking her head and letting out another sigh. Really, sometimes she couldn't help but think how good it was for her to live a normal life, if she found out who wrote her destiny, she will throttle them! ( author: EEP!)
The group returned to the Lin house where they found Fang Zimo who was walking after Lin Zhi with a puppy dog expression on his face. All he was missing was a collar and he would be all set!
" Oh, you all are back already?" Lin Zhi who was just returning after watering the melon fields looked up in their direction with a smile. Now that she was no longer leaving the life where she was suppressed by her mother for the sake of her elder brother, she was getting more and more beautiful. Her skin was glowing with a healthy glow and with three meals a day, her skin was no longer yellow and sunken. She was much prettier, to begin with, or else she wouldn't have been able to catch the eye of the rich lord and now that she was regaining her lost confidence, Fang Zimo was slowly finding himself with new profound competitors that weren't around before.
That was why Fang Zimo started to follow Lin Zhi around everywhere without listening to a thing that she said, and Su Wan has also seen him glaring at a few men who came to look at Lin Zhi in the context of discussing something with her husbands. Of course, with her husbands around Fang Zimo didn't need to worry about anything but as the saying goes ——Love doesn't happen all of a sudden but it tests the worthy, maybe this was a test for Fang Zimo's love.
Fang Zimo who was carrying the bucket in his hands smiled as he walked over to Lin Yan and greeted him. " Brother Yan, you are here? Great timing, I think Aunt Zhang just finished cooking the lunch, you all can wash your hands and come to have your lunch before anything." Then he turned to look at Su Wan and frowned. " Why are you looking so pale? I will ask Aunt Zhang to cook some blood tofu for you, replenish some good nutrients in your body, look at you—— You look like a badly malnourished woman with a bloated belly!"𝑓𝙧𝙚𝙚w𝙚𝙗𝒏oν𝐞l. c𝑜𝙢
Su Wan looked down and she hated to admit but her thin body with a big belly did look a bit ugly. If this was before, she would not have minded and retorted Fang Zimo but now things were no longer the same, as soon as that unhappy thought came into her head, the dam broke, startling everyone.
