Chapter 24 - Mighty And Domineering , Our Wife Scold Us
24 Mighty and domineering , our wife scold us
Once the old Lin family ran away with their tails tucked between their legs, the crowd that was surrounding their home disappeared too , leaving the Lin brothers and their highly incensed wife alone .
Lin Chen who was standing beside Lin Rui gulped and hurried forward to butter up to his wife , rubbing his hands together he reached to clasp Su Wan sleeves and started singing her praises " wife you were so handsome , so domineering , so mighty ! that you nearly made me faint !"
Listening to Lin Chen's praises Su Wan didn't feel anything instead she angrily snorted and flicked his grubby paws off her " So what if I was might , handsome and domineering ! What in the world is wrong with you all ? If you sent them packing as soon as they came to trouble us then they wouldn't have had the chance to grab the upper hand. The moment they came here , you four should have made them run away like hell hounds were chasing them but instead you let them create such a loud fuss that we our family 's affair became an entertainment's show for others to watch !"
The moment Su Wan scolded them , the Lin brothers were ashamed at once .
" Wife its not that we didn't want to to stop them .But we can't stop them , they are our elders ..we can neither hit them nor we can scold them ..We didn't even had any idea what to do with them " seeing that his wife was so angry that she was trembling , Lin Rui hurriedly tried to soothe her but to Su Wan who was already hopping mad these words sounded like excuses. Had no idea what to do ? haha " so what do you want to do now ? Will you stand aside like mute everytime those blood sucking leeches come to our house and ask for money from us ? Is that what you are going to do ? " The more Su Wan thought about it the more angry she became.
" Do you think that if you remain honest and filial to them , those blood sucking leeches will be kind to you ? If that's what's going on in your mind then I have two words for you all - Dream On ! You have been filial to that family for ages and look where it brought all of you ! "
" they bullied you all so much that you all couldn't even get married with respect ! You gave that family all your earnings in the past and what did they give you in return ? They kicked you out without even a single coin ! Doesn't it mean that they don't care whether you live or die ? Then what are you being filial for ? who are you being filial for ? Do they even deserve it !?"
As the scolding continued , the Lin brothers head dropped further and further . They knew that for today's matter all of them were in the wrong , today's incident happened because they had let the old Lin family continue bullying them as they wished maybe if they rebelled a little more than their situation would have been better and the old Lin family wouldn't be so used to riding upon their head like this .
" Wan Wan , don't scold them . Its all mother's fault " when Mother Lin saw her sons getting scolded like little kids where they couldn't even look in their wife's eyes , mother Lin 's heart ached for her sons " Its all because of my teachings , I taught them to be honest and filial to elders "
" Mother , I won't say that your teachings are wrong but I will still say that being filial to people who don't even give you slightest of respect as human beings can't be called elders !" Su Wan knew that her scolding was a bit severe but it was better to nip the bud before it bloomed , she didn't want to continue fighting with the old Lin family every now and then " mother , your teachings are correct but all of them need to understand that they only need to show filial peity to elders who truly deserve it .If they continue to act in such an honest conduct , I can assure you that the old Lin family will suck on our blood and feast on our flesh !"
" wife what can we do ?" sighed Lin Yan it was his first time receiving such a harsh scolding but he didn't believe that they were in the wrong . Their values were completely different from Su Wan's who dared to point a knife at her grandmother 's throat " What you say is correct but if we get too rough with them , then wouldn't the villagers point their fingers at us ? How will we live then ?"
Filial peity was one of the most important conduct of society in this era , what Lin Yan said was totally correct . No matter how unreasonable the old lady was, she was their elder and they couldn't just kick her out of their life without a single care .
This was why , the old Lin family was such a headache to their family !
Oh these honest idiots !
Her husbands were so honest and cute that Su Wan almost couldn't hold on to her anger. No , she couldn't let go of this matter like this otherwise they will be the one facing losses in the future ! She has to keep holding on to her fierceness or she will lose ! Strict , she gotta be strict ! Ahem .
She looked at her husbands for a while and pursed her lips then thought of something before speaking up " all right you want to filial then so be it , I do understand that you all don't want villagers pointing fingers at you . So , if that's the case then I won't be making things difficult for all of you . " When Su Wan stopped , The Lin brothers heaved a sigh of relief except Lin Rui who glanced at his wife whose eyes were flickering with shrewdness . He didn't believe that their wife would let go of this matter just like this !
