Shrewd wife of Lin brothers,Chapter 438 - Back Home - Read free novels online

Madam Zhu was the only daughter in her family, her father remarried another wife and then her life was nothing but hell - the new wife gave birth to two sons and had her look over them, she wasn't even allowed to take care of her own brothers. It was true that once you have a stepmother you will have a stepfather as well, madam Zhu had a similar fate, under her stepmother's pillow talk, he started despising her and her brothers- as an unwanted daughter, Madam Zhu knew just how well Su Wan might have suffered under her father and stepmother. When she was young she swore to herself that if she ever gave birth to a daughter she will be kind to her and give her all the love that she didn't receive when she was a child.

But Madam Zhu couldn't give birth to a daughter and after two sons her body never got pregnant again, she married late and thus, it wasn't a surprise that she couldn't give birth anymore .. thus, she decided to treat Su Wan who was the firstborn daughter in their family as her own daughter- although Su Wan was a girl and didn't come out from her womb, Madam Zhu still loved her nonetheless. Whenever she looked at Su Wan it was like watching her own childhood self - thus, when she saw Su Wan's wounds that were stitched up to stop her from bleeding to death, tears immediately came to Madam Zhu's eyes.

" Wife, don't worry -Wan Wan is okay now.. and that woman has been thoroughly punished as well, so don't feel sad. Everything's okay now" Shen Junxi very gently tucked Madam Zhu's head under his arm as he comforted his wife " see, if you cry, even Wan Wan will feel upset"

" That's right aunt, I am okay," said Su Wan, she didn't want madam Zhu to feel upset because of her. Her eldest aunt has always treated her nicely so Su Wan felt her heartache when she saw Madam Zhu shed tears for her " Though I really did encounter a calamitous situation, now I am completely fine - didn't I say it before after suffering a calamity, its all good fortune? I will definitely be blessed with good fortune! So don't cry aunt, it's all good ..soon I will be able to enjoy great blessings ah !"

When madam Zhu heard Su Wan's words, her heart turned even more aggrieved " Wan Wan, I think that you should just leave this chores to a hired help or at least dig a well closer to the main house, your house has a big backyard but it has just as many disadvantages as it has advantages, the look didn't you get kidnapped because no one could hear you? I have been telling you to do something about it, it's better for you to build some rooms in there and leave those small rooms as a storage room or something like that -"

Shen Junxi knew that his wife would start babbling nonsense once she got anxious or flustered, so he hurriedly rubbed her arm and calmed her down " Wife, you can talk to Su Wan, once she is in her bed... if someone was to see her like this then they will surely gossip, it won't be good for Wan Wan's reputation "

Only then did madam Zhu stop her nonsensical chatter, The main building of their house was fixed properly but the thing was that the rooms were scattered here and there, to make things easier for Su Wan, Lin Jing brought her to his room .. when Shen Junxi tried to oppose this matter, Shen Jing told him that Su Wan wasn't used to sleeping in the guest room that faced the east side which was blocked off the cool winds from the river, it wouldn't be comfortable for her, since she might get itchy after her wounds scabbed off, facing this situation, Shen Junxi had no other choice but to silently agree - the matter was regarding his niece's comfort so he Couldn't slight it in the slightest!

Thus, just like that Lin Jing's room became Su Wan's new room - when Su Wan was placed on Lin Jing's bed, she lightly hissed as her skin mashed with the bedsheet thankfully the cloth wasn't rough so she didn't feel much pain, she turned to Lin Jing and asked: " Did Doctor Gu told you something about letting me wear light clothes ?" Because she really didn't want to wear these heavy clothes in this sweltering heat with stitches, she might go mad with the sweat and itch!

Lin Jing blushed as his hands trembled, he cleared his throat then looked at Lin Rui who took out a thin package from behind him- Lin Jing took it in his hands and then turned to look at Shen Junxi who glowered at him " her aunt can do this -"

But this time Lin Jing didn't budge, he glared right back at Shen Junxi without flinching, sorry if he was being disrespectful but after almost losing his wife, he didn't want to let her out of his sight even for a second " I am her husband "

He stated simply and Shen Junxi swelled like a balloon.

Madam Zhu placed her hands on his chest as she lightly admonished him " Oh Come on, Junxi. I know that you are worried but the boys are her husbands, let them have peace of their mind. Don't you think that after so many things happened, they should at least have a private moment with Wan Wan? "

" but -"

" Don't act like an adult here, the last time when I got hurt... you guarded me better than a watchdog and wouldn't let anyone see me either. I think you of all people know how this feels"

Shen Junxi sputtered but in the end, he didn't say anything and let his wife drag him away.. Lord Fei watched them in amusement as he took out a tiny bottle from his robe's pockets " The emperor once gifted me this bottle when I protected his life in the battlefield, he handed it to me saying that it will help me with my scars but in all honesty, I believe that scars are the medals of a warrior so I have never used it - you can apply it on Wan Wan's skin so that there are no scars left and ahem -" he cleared his throat as he lightly added " try to avoid doing any strenuous work while she is still like this, I know it will be hard for you all being hot-blooded but you know " he shrugged off with a small wink leaving the Lin brothers to fume in embarrassment.
