Shrewd wife of Lin brothers,Chapter 182 - Who Ate Off Your Table? - Read free novels online

In the end Madam Zhang who haven't eaten a good meal for days , immediately squashed her unhappiness and unpleasant feelings - instead she showed an understanding smile and said " Ah Chen , can you please give these fishes and eels to me ? Your uncle is hurt really badly and I want to cook some soup to help him recover "

Lin Chen rolled his eyes and coldly snorted " do you think I'm a fool ? If I give you these fishes and eels what will my family eat ? Do you not know how difficult it is to catch them ?"

Lin Chen wasn't lying either , ever since he and His second brother started to catch fishes at the river . Many villagers copied their style of using a bamboo stick tied with a string and hook , now it was getting more and more difficult to catch fishes . If one didn't get up early and went to the river , then it was impossible for them to catch a fish now - luckily Su Wan came with new dishes and the popularity of the Salisbury fish steak went down a little , so they didn't need to catch as much fishes as they did at the beginning .

The fishes in the vat were for the restaurant and if Lin Chen wanted to eat fish then he needed to catch a new batch of fishes to replace the old one so that the stock for the restaurant didn't go down in case they needed the fishes urgently .

Grandma Lin 's face sank and she pointed at Lin Chen , one hand at her hips " You little brat , now that you have left our house you think that your wings have grown ? Don't forget that I'm still your grandmother and she is still your aunt . If your aunt wants to take these fishes for your uncle to replenish his strength how dare you say no , to her ? Are you going to be unfilial!"

Lin Chen sneered " Use this unfilial tactic on my elder brothers because it won't work on me , not anymore ! If I give you these fishes today , do you dare to say you won't come and ask for more tomorrow ? I bet you will ! Once you get a single rice of grain from our family you will start leeching us off again just like before ! I'm not as stupid as you think I'm !"

Madam Zhang face changed but Before she could admonish Lin Chen , Zhao Lan started pushing Grandma Lin and Madam Zhang out of her house , Fang Xiaolin also rushed to help - she knew that as a man Lin Chen couldn't touch these two disgusting women even if they were related to him , so she decided to help Aunt Zhao .

Zhao Lan pushed them until they were completely out of their house then locked the door with a ' click ' behind them . Actually , Grandma Lin and Madam Zhang could have fought against Zhao Lan and Fang Xiaolin but Lin Chen was glaring at them with his phoenix eyes slightly narrowed with ' just you try ' expression on her face , so they didn't dare to - they were afraid that if they so much as touched Zhao Lan 's skin , Lin Chen would forget all about the norms and throw them out by himself .

They didn't dare to fight with him present bur now that the door was closed , Madam Zhang immediately raised her voice " Zhao Lan it seems that you can't differentiate wrong from right ! . Refusing a fine wine only to be forced to drink."

Mother Lin was no longer the same timid woman , she knew that if she faltered now then her sons , daughter in law and her future grand children will all suffer because of her attitude , so she too didn't bother with any fake formalities , she ruthlessly spoke in a manner that stripped Madam Zhang and Grandma Lin 's mask " Old Lady Lin , Zhang Xiaohui - I might be a fool but my head is not that clouded ! I can still distinguish wrong from right , you want me to help you today because Lin Ze is hurt then you would want me to help you because Lin Che didn't have enough money to study at the academy next month , then at the third maybe Yunxi will fall sick because she couldn't but the latest fashion dress , I know very well why you came to find me . You speak like we are still one family and its only right for me to take out my family's savings for yours , then what about you , why didn't you take out hundred taels for my medicines ? Didn't doctor Gu said that I would have died if I didn't get the medicine , you didn't care about my life ! Why should I care about yours !"

Grandma Lin who finally realised that Zhao Lan wasn't going to take out the silver that she very much wanted and lost her temper too . With a gloomy voice she snarled " Zhao Lan don't forget that you are my Lin family's widow . Your husband called me mother and your sons ate our family's grains ! You are still my dead son's wife and your sons grew up this big after eating off my table , what's wrong if I want you take some money out to help us ? "

Zhao Lan simply rolled her eyes , she couldn't believe that Grandma Lin 's face was so thick but Lin Chen wasn't as simple , he picked up a bamboo rod and pushed open the gates of their house so hard and fast that Grandma Lin and Madam Zhang nearly fell on their butt , Lin Chen didn't care whether the stumbled or fell , he pointed the bamboo rod in his hand at them and roared " what do you mean ate of your family's table ? If you are so old that your head is muddled then go see a doctor ! Who exactly in your family has ever worked ? Did you lazy son went to the fields ? Or did yours go to the forest to hunt ?" He asked pointing his bamboo rod alternatively at both women , who were so scared that they didn't dare to speak " your sons did nothing , and neither did you ? Or do I not know of that one time where you went the sea to catch fishes ? Apart from staying at home and waiting for food to be served at the table you have done nothing ! Yes nothing ! It was my father who worked hard and brought food to your table and later on it was my eldest brother who did that , so when did we ate off your table ? "

" Alright it's enough " said Mother Lin busily as she pulled her son's sleeve and brought him back inside the house " let's go , I will cook some fish soup for you , you don't need to ruin your mood like this , Xiaolin come with us - you can eat together with me . Don't worry Aunty's culinary skills aren't as good as Wan Wan ,but Aunt can still brew a delicious soup "

While saying so , Mother Lin didn't forget to lock the doors again . She knew Madam Zhang 's personality very well if she didn't lock the house properly the fishes in the vat will be long gone before either she or Lin Chen realised it .

Madam Zhang jumped to her feet and felt red hot fury burning in her heart . Nor did they got the money neither did they were able to bring the fishes with them , she thought about the delicious fish soup she had last time when Zhao Lan was still in charge and cursed in her heart . It was only a matter of four to five bowls yet they acted so stingily - neither of the put them in their eyes .

Grandma Lin was even more stunned and angry , she hurriedly climbed on her feet and spat on Lin family's door and kicked it twice " Slut , let's see how long your leisurely life could go on . Don't you dare come and beg my Lin family when you all run out of money !"
