The next morning Su Wan was all prepared to go to the mountains with Lin Jing but Lin Yan this big fat mouthed party pooper ruined all her plans at the breakfast .

" What do you mean by going to the mountains ?" demanded Lin Yan who adamantly looked away from Lin Jing 's swollen lips " We need to go to the town and take a look at your shops , where do you have the time to play in the mountains ?"

​​

'who says I'm going there to play 'grumbled Su Wan inwardly , in fact she wanted to very much fight with Lin Yan right then and there but the pancakes that Lin Yan cooked had scratched her throat ! Because she was frolicking with Lin Jing till late at night ; she woke up a bit late compared to Lin Yan who was up and about at five in the morning.

Since she was a bit late in waking up Lin Yan was the one who cooked the breakfast . At first Su Wan thought that with his cooking skills , Lin Yan wouldn't have done a bad job and happily sat down to eat but what she forgot was that Lin Yan was the frugal king of frugals!

Even though they still had enough amount of oil , eggs and white flour . The guy actually scrimped on oil and used the rough coarse flour , Su Wan who took a huge bite at once went from happily smiling to 'oh my god , my throat , my tongue , my mouth huhuhu ' . But because she didn't want to make a ruckus shw chewed on her pancake taking ferocious bites out of it as if she was eating Lin Yan 's meat .

Breakfast was such an important meal , upon it depended her entire day mood yet Lin Yan dare to ruin her breakfast and in turn ruined her mood . If they really were in a bad situation which called for the need to be thrifty she wouldn't have said a word but there was no need

!

There was so much eggs and white flour in their kitchen for who in the world this guy was saving it for ? muttered Su Wan inwardly as she swallowed the rough pancakes down with water , aye atleast give her salt water or some bone soup - she wasn't so used to eating such durable food .

Her throat oh my her throat . With every bite Su Wan took , she cursed Lin Yan and moaned in pain , she wished to cry but she couldn't bring herself to cry just because of a bad breakfast . In the end she settled with glaring at Lin Yan but when the guy didn't look her way , she scowled even more and swore in her heart that she will wake up early from tomorrow until the day they get rich and this stupid husband of her's stopped worrying about food and money .

Lin Yan naturally caught her glare bur ignored her . He knew that Su Wan was resentful because of the breakfast but Lin Yan didn't dare to say that he actually cooked a decent breakfast this morning because of her . When it was only him , his brothers and their mother he wouldn't even use the slightest bit of oil .

If Su Wan knew that he called this breakfast decent she would have gotten so angry that she might have ended up flipping the table .

" brother is it necessary to go so soon ?" asked Lin Chen scratching his head in confusion " it won't matter if Wan Wan went after a day or two ?"

" what do you know !" snapped Lin Yan slapping the table that trembled ominously . Everyone stopped eating at once and picked up their dishes in case it broke but the table only shuddered for a while and then stopped shaking , Lin Yan also breathed a sigh of relief , if the table broke it will become really troublesome to eat food . Not to mention he would regret it for days , he quickly calmed himself and turned to glare at Lin Chen who shrank his neck screaming injustice in his head " Do you forgot the Old Su family also depends on those shops for their monthly expenses . And the end of the month is coming soon , what if they tried to smuggle the money out of those shops ? If we delay this matter , the managers of those shops won't know that the owner of their shops have changed and continue giving money to the Old Su family , if that happened we won't even have a ground to cry on ! "

" But Wan Wan is already married to us surely the Su family won't rely on a married daughter's dowry shops ?" said Lin Chen frowing slightly

" If you say it like that aren't we separated from the old chen family , didn't they still come to find trouble with us yesterday ?" grumbled Lin Yan as he ate his pancake " There is no one in the Su family who knows how to make an earning , they were only able to buy all of their farmlands and their house because they had Wan Wan's mother's shops . They might have given it up but without smuggling the money from those shops its possible they might find it too difficult to swallow their rice , and there is also Su Cheng , he is a studying in the town and that costs a lot of money . I don't think the Su family will be able to resist the temptation , of course they can live a decent life if they work hard but will they ? Like its said its easy to go from frugal to rich but its hard to become frugal after being rich "

What Lin Yan said made sense but still no one wanted to upset Su Wan so they all turned to look at her .

Though Su Wan hated Lin Yan 's straightforward poisonous tongue she knew what he said was correct . The Su family was just a perfect copy of the Chen family , it would be impossible if the thought of embezzling the money from her shops didn't come in their minds .

Su Lan and her mother Chu Yanyu were greedy and they loved to eat the finest polished rice and wear the trending clothes but they were lazy to bones and never worked in the field . It was the original owner who alone worked for months to plough the Su family's farming fields .

As for Grandma Su and the original owner's father Su Bai it was even more impossible for them to work in the fields . They considered themselves as the landlords of the village because except them no one else owned twenty mus of lands.

If Su Cheng wasn't studying the Su family could still use the money they earn from selling their grains to lead a humble life but will Su family be willing to live such a life ? Of course not !

Thus , Su Wan agreed with Lin Yan 's suggestion and decided to settle the matter once and for all " Ah Yan is right ; today we will go to the town and settle the matter of the shops first "

That was much more important than taking a hike up the mountain ! She can't let the Su family snatch a single coin from her hands !
