Shrewd wife of Lin brothers,Chapter 417 - God Granddaughter - Read free novels online

The Emperor had introduced a lot of children who were distant relatives of the royal family to Lord Fei. The Emperor felt guilty because he was the reason that Lord Fei lost his only son.

The emperor wished for lord Fei's happiness that's he wanted his Uncle to adopt a child and live a peaceful life but Lord Fei didn't like any child that his nephew introduced to him.

Children were too polite and afraid of him either they tried to please him or they were too terrified to even look him in the eye.

Such children -Lord Fei didn't dare to adopt. Both he and his wife were straightforward people they didn't know how to soften their tone and their words were too blunt enough to make a grown-up cry much less a child. He was worried that the child he will adopt might end up crying the entire time.

However he and his wife were childless and they were getting old. At such an age they felt lonely and wished that someone would accompany them.

He didn't have to worry about this family line ending because the emperor was his nephew and he was as good as his son. He raised the emperor as his son when his elder brother was busy in his debauchery so the emperor treated him like a father figure.

Lord Fei had everything because the emperor was generous with him.

Now he wished him nothing but for someone to accompany them. He looked at Su Wan who was neither too humble nor to overbearing.

She was a confident and bold girl who didn't think twice before contradicting him but she wasn't rude.

In just three hours of knowing her, Lord Fei was sold on the idea of taking her as his goddaughter. He thought that Lin Yan was good, but now that he met Su Wan he realised that he set the bar too low!

Su Wan was a lot better compared to Lin Yan, those novel ideas where something that he had never heard of.

"Lord Fei I think that your idea of holding the banquet at the seaside restraint his good but I suggest that you change the location to your house. I am not looking down at you and Madam Fei but the weather is still changing. In such capricious weather holding a banquet at a restaurant that is facing the sea might harm your health. It's easy to catch a chill in such a location."

Su Wan took a glance around the courtyard of the Fei Mansion and added. "Lord Fei this mansion isn't bad either it's spacious and the scenery isn't bad either. You have paid attention to the insulation of the mansion as well I think it will better for your wife to celebrate her birthday here. After all, we want her to enjoy her special day to the fullest."

"Little Wan Wan ah! Do you have a father- no what I mean is that …is your father is still around?" Lord Fei dug out a lot of information about Su Wan in the past three hours. The girl talked a lot about her husbands, her maternal uncle and aunt, even her in-laws were mentioned a little here and there.

What was even more surprising was that a complete stranger named Fang Zimo was also mentioned.

Of course when he said that Su Wan talked about Fang Zimo he meant that she simply complained about him being rude to her.

She told him that the rude brat called her a shortcake because he thought of her as someone he could easily bully ..and because she was short.

Lord Fei was amused and certain that it was the latter half -that hit her nerve.

Su Wan pursed her lips Su Bai was still around but he cannot be called a father.

A father who sold his daughter for money does not deserve to be called a father. So she didn't even think twice before refusing. "No, I am afraid I do not have one. But Lord Fei why are you are asking me that ?"

Lin Yan who was measuring the area of the main hall to decide whether they should hold banquet inside in the main hall or in the backyard paused and stiffly turned to look at Su Wan and Lord Fei who were sitting on the porch having a discussion about what to do and what not to do.

He was afraid that Su Wan might have offended Lord Fei by her straightforwardness. He stopped whatever he was doing and hurried over to take the blame but before could reach Su Wan he heard Lord Fei exclaim. "Little Wan Wan if that's the case why don't you become my goddaughter? Grandpa Fei would like to have a god granddaughter like you."

Originally Lord Fei wanted to take Su Wan his goddaughter but then he thought about it; looking at Su Wan's youthful face and thought that if he did that he might jumble up the relationship.

His nephew the Emperor was around the age of forty or so and Su Wan was still two months shy from seventeen.

His nephew was practically a middle-aged man, even his eldest daughter was older than Su Wan! Going by seniority it could be said that Su Wan could be taken as his nephew's daughter. If he took Su Wan as his goddaughter then wouldn't it mean that his Nephew and Su Wan would become brother and sister?

A forty-year-old man being a brother to a sixteen-year-old what kind of combination was this! It was better to take her as his god granddaughter!

Wu Dei widened his eyes and felt extremely anxious after hearing his Lord's words. The lord was a first-rank official whom even the emperor respected like an old ancestor. As long as he opened his mouth he could adopt any one in the capital! Even if his Lord was to set his eyes on any children of the Emperor, he would be able to adopt them.

So how could he…. How could he just accept a little girl whose background was unknown .. was it just because she scolded him like madam? Was his master a masochist?

Lin Yan "…" Excuse me, what?
