Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

---------------

Su Bai finished listening to Su Yu Cheng and nodded in satisfaction.

" Good this is good," though he hated Su Wan because her belly was filled with rotten ideas but now he was more than satisfied with her bad ideas. As long as the plan was not aimed at him, he could deal with that woman!

He narrowed his eyes and sneered coldly, " I knew that woman was thinking something while hiding in the imperial palace. For her to stay quiet even when they were eating and sleeping in her manor, given her selfish intentions, it was impossible!"

" Now that she wants to completely break the pot then she cannot blame us for not showing her any face!"

He was not stupid, after spending time with Su Yiqian. He knew that the girl did not have him in her heart, even though he was the one who raised her under his roof for sixteen years, that girl had never thought of him as father. She stayed docilely in his control because she knew that she could not go somewhere else but now that she had a backer, Su Yiqian did not fear him.

Su Bai knew that Su Yiqian was trying to teach their families a lesson and compared to her who had power and fame they could only anxiously wait.

But fortunately, they still had Su Wan!

At the imperial palace.

Su Yiqian was lying on her bed while her maid massaged her back.

She never let herself suffer even the slightest bit from the day she became the imperial concubine. Even if she were to see a tiny spot on her skin, she would do her best to clean it up. Su Yiqian had once lived in the village as a yellow-haired, sallow-looking girl who was too weak and ugly.

She knew how hard it was for an ugly-looking girl to entice a man.

Thus, she took proper care of herself. After taking care of the troublemakers at the manor, Su Yiqian found out that she was looking a bit haggard. She did not want the Emperor to find her old and unattractive in front of the Empress that old hag who was bent on suppressing her.

" Yue, did you bring the medicine that I asked?" Su Yiqian asked as she turned her waist to the side for her maid to apply oil and massage it properly.

" I have brought it and I already sent Mammy Fu to have it brewed, you can rest assured Your Highness. I will make sure that you will get pregnant this time around after spending the night with his majesty," replied Xiao Yue.

Su Yiqian sighed in relief when she heard Xiao Yue's words. Though she hated the fact that as a young woman, she needed to sleep with a middle-aged old man, Su Yiqian found it much better than sleeping with five men. At least her reputation was still intact!

In the past, she did not want to have a child and wanted to live in peace for a few more months but then the matter of Su Wan happened and she could no longer sit still and even more so now that those two families were here. She had to get pregnant or else she would have no life line to save herself.

With an imperial child even if the Emperor wanted to punish her, she could turn the situation around but if there was no child, Su Yiqian would have to silently wait for death!

" Has the matter settled? Will those people return to their village in a few days?" After Su Yiqian was done with her problem, she asked Xiao Yue about the two troublemaking families.

Su Bai wanted her to serve their family all day long.

He also asked her to send Su Yu Cheng and Lin Ze to the academy. If there was anything left then he would ask her to look for a decent match for Su Lan, what was more even though Su Lan looked below average, she did not think that she was any lower than the girls in the capital. The demands that she placed forward made Su Yiqian cough out blood.

Even the illegitimate daughters of her father who were born by bed chamber maids were not as demanding as Su Lan.

If they had treated her well, then she would have treated them with politeness but they treated her like a maid and they still expected her to work for him? Look for a decent match. Help them in signing up for the academy. They must be kidding her!

Xiao Yue also felt sorry for her mistress. She had been following Su Yiqian and could see how hard it was to serve the people of the Su and the Lin family. She was more or less related to Su Yiqian as she was the daughter of her third aunt and thus sympathized with Su Yiqian.

" You don't have to worry about it, your highness. In a few days, I will lead the county magistrate of the city and have him look at the treasury. All the money that was kept in the treasury is more than ten thousand gold taels, if we file a complaint against them saying that they used more than a million silver taels, those people would have nothing to fight against us."

" They have no idea that the money in the treasury is being moved and they still go on about their days like always. Once this matter comes to light no one will blame you and everyone will call those people white-eyed wolves."

" By then even if you send them away no one will question you. For a commoner to use a million tael in just three months is unheard of. The fake account books are also prepared by the housekeeper, I only need to hand him the last payment and he will go to the Yamen to complain."

Once the matter was spread all over the capital, there would be no place left for those two families.
