Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers Chapter 19
Advertisement
" What am I doing ?" seeing that Lin Chen who never dared to do even glare at her when he lived under her roof , actually raised his voice at her - Grandma Lin blew off like a fire cracker " What do you think you are doing , you unfilia grandson ! Not even a day has passed and your wings actually hardened so much that you dare to fly against the heavens , is that it ?"
" You -"
" What third brother wanted to ask was did Grandma didn't see our mother sitting where you aimed to throw you stone at or did you intentionally threw it there ?" intercepting Lin Chen , Lin Rui spoke up . Grandma Lin 's screams has already attracted the attention of half of the village . Even if they already seperated from Grandma Lin 's family , she was still there grandmother and elder , if they didn't clear off the situation to the village people , the villagers might end up believing that they actually bullied their grandmother .
" You ..what do you mean by intentionally ?" when the sharp tongued Lin Rui came to face her , Grandma Lin actually became tongue tied . She has indeed thrown the store at Mother Lin because when she saw , mother Lin sitting leisurely and sipping on a warm bowl of what looked like medicine , she became even more furious .
On what basis was she left in the dilapidated old Lin house while this mother and his jinx of a sons settled in this castle like manor of the Ling family ?
What made her even more angry was that while her family was worried about their next month's expenses . These spendthrifts not only brought a house but they even brought two farming fields and two rice paddies !
When she was rushing here , she heard a number of villagers gossiping behind her back - saying things how she didn't knew how to count her blessings . They taunted her saying that if only she was nice to the Lin brothers she too would have enjoyed this blessing .
Nice ? Wasn't she already nice to them ? Their father wasn't even her biological son ! But still she let those five jinxes of his stay in her own house - gave them food off her table , clothed them . Yes , there were a bit of negligence here and there but that was only normal ! After all she wasn't their biological grandmother and she had her own son and grandson to take care of, with these two in her hands , she couldn't take a better care of the five brothers but still were they starved ? Did she let them roam the street naked ?

No !
So why was she treated as an evil witch ?
What Grandma Lin forgot was that if she gave five dumplings to each of her son amd grandson , she would give the Lin brothers a total of five dumplings and that too on chinese new year . For the rest of the year , the Lin brothers had to make do with cornmeal pancake and coarse grain while Lin Che ate polished rice .
When she sent the Lin brothers off to work , she sent her precious Grandson to school even though he repeatedly failed in the imperial exams and the Lin brothers were the one who paid for his meals and studies every year .
Even Lin Rui who was much more wiser and smarter than Lin Che wasn't allowed to take the imperial exams because the family didn't had enough money to support both of them .
And Grandma Lin feared that Lin Rui being the wiser one would snatch another extra seat in the examination thus she wanted Lin Che to clear off tye examination first so that she can enjoy the joys of being the grandmother of an official.
As for Lin Rui 's wasted years , she could careless about him .
With everything she said and done , she sure had a thick skin to say that she was being nice to The Lin brothers .
" She is my daughter in law , why will I intentionally hit her ?" avoiding Lin Jing 's narrowed glare and Lin Rui 's shrewd calculating gaze " I - and what's with this cross questioning you brats ! Its you all who hid their money from me , your old and weak grandmother and brought this huge house for yourselves ! Don't you feel guilty for letting your old grandmother live in that run down house ?"
" Guilty ? " Lin Chen barked a laughter as he glared at Lin Ze who was hiding behind Grandma Lin like a lurking snake , he knew that his grandmother was greedy by nature but this uncle of his wasn't any good either. He was nothing but a lazy bum , he gambled and squandered their hard earned money and that wasn't all , he will even go out of his way to make trouble for them by borrowing money from loan sharks and when the loan sharks came to ask for their money , this uncle of theirs will hide in his turtle shell and would incite their Grandmother to snatch their money from them . Most likely this useless uncle of theirs already owed a huge debt on his back this month as well " Why should we feel guilty ? You have never treated us as yours ! While your precious son and grandson were feasting on meat and white rice , I and my brothers were left to starve ! Guilty ? I don't feel the least bit guilty to finally have enough food to eat !"

Since , Lin Chen didn't control his temper , his loud voice boomed through out the courtyard . When the villagers heard that Grandma Lin starved the Lin brothers , their gazes turned sympathetic and they all turned to glare at Grandma Lin with resentment .
" Did you hear that she actually starved these poor kids "
" Hah , I already knew she was nothing good . What good step grandmother , step is step whether mother or grandmother . You just need to take a quick glance at her biological son 's family and their double size waists and The Lin brothers malnourished profile , to see how good she is !"
" Tsk , she sure is shameless . The Lin brothers already seperated from her family without taking a single coin from her yet she still doesn't let go of them"
" Of course she can't let go of them , who in the village doesn't know that it was the Lin brothers who worked in the Lin family 's field , have you ever seen Lin Ze or Lin Che working ? They only know to laze around and wolf down the money when the crops are reaped "
When Grandma Lin and Lin Ze heard the villagers gossip , their faces turned so black that ink could drip from it .
" Nonsense ! If I really starved you , wouldn't you all have died already ?" though Grandma Lin was guilty in her heart , she didn't want to back down either . If she did what face will she have while facing the villagers ? " I think you only want to shriek responsiblity ! this won't do ! If your family is going to live in this huge house , we will move in too !"
When Grandma Lin said this she was already imagining herself sitting in the courtyard and sipping on her tea leisurely . Not to mention that if they lived in such a big house nobody would look down on her granddaughter and grandson .
" Move in ? what do you mean by move in ? We have already seperated !" yelled Lin Chen
" What do you mean by that Ah Chen you silly child?" chided Aunt Lin as she placed her swollen hand on her waist " we are one family , why mention the seperation ?"
That said she already sneaked past the Lin brothers and wriggled her waist towards the front hall .Since , Zhang Xiaohui was a woman the Lin brothers couldn't carelessly touch her nor they could stop her .
Zhang Xiaohui who was ignoring their verbal warning smirked and casually walked towards the front door . Her fat foot was almost going to cross the threshold when a slender foot kicked her on chest , Zhang Xiaohui was so startled that she couldn't catch a firm footing and rolled down like a overweight panda except she looked no where cute .
Following the kick a fierce voice screeched " what are you trying to do ? What the fuck you are trying to do ?"
author's little theatre .
Lin brothers : Our wife is so cute when she acts fierce
Su Wan (snarling): I'm as cute as a starving lioness
Lin brothers : Aye, she is just so cute .💘
Do not forget to leave a beautiful review !!!

Nanocultivation Chronicles: Trials of Lilijoy
When the singularity occurred, humanity was not invited. Nevertheless, the great machine consciousness known as Guardian felt a lingering fondness for its creators and intervened before total environmental collapse. Join Lilijoy in an exploration of what remains, in a post-post-apocalyptic world where clans feud over the technology that allows them to upgrade their minds and bodies. The Nanocultivation Chronicles is a blend of hard sci-fi and fantasy gamelit, with a healthy helping of xianxia influence. The gamelit and xianxia elements are uncovered at a slow pace. ******************************** Notes: If you are looking for lots of fast moving action right away, this story may not be for you. There is some violence that is visceral and realistic early on. Some things are not what they appear to be. Character viewpoint narration is not always reliable. Tropes are cherished, subverted, and then cherished again. Science is used, occasionally misused, but (hopefully) never abused. This story assumes that humans have the ability to impact the environment on a global scale. Other tropes and tags beyond those previously noted include: Young MC, Mystery, System Building, Philosophical Taoism, Gender Ignorance, Science Fantasy, Fantasy Academy, Training from Hell, Dualism, Crafting, Magic, Mild Mind Control, Scientific Terms and Concepts, Computer Overlord Certain contemporary companies, governments and cultural identities are fictionalized and imagined in a future setting. There is no sex, and almost no romance. Updating Sunday, Thursday until further notice. (And if you actually read all of the above, then this story may be for you) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
