Name：Shrewd wife of Lin brothers Author：fairytail72

Grandma Su wanted to throw her weight on the restaurant staff as Su Wan's grandmother and wanted to take away quite sone taels for her favourite grandson but the second she tried to broke the line , a huge uproar issued at once . The dock workers didn't know who Grandma Su was , so they abruptly pulled her back , telling her that if she needed to buy the food from the restaurant she need to line in . When have Grandma Su ever suffered through such a situation ? She immediately blew up .

" who are you to tell me to line up ? Pei ! Do you know who I'm ? I am the grandmother of this restaurant 's owner ! Why can't I go in directly why do I need to line up like you peasants ?" Old grandmother Su was used to scolding Su Wan ,or anyone related to her . She had also scolded Shen Shui until the latter suffered from depression , so she had no qualms in scolding the dock workers who were lining up to purchase the food from her granddaughter 's restaurant .

But this was where grandmother Su went wrong , since Su Bai didn't tell her the facade that actually happened , grandmother Su didn't know that almost everyone on the docks knew that Su Wan had bitter relationship with her natal family and that her husband who was currently the boss of the restaurant despised his in laws .

So they created even a more louder ruckus than grandmother Su , all the ruckus - attracted Lin Yan 's attention and he walked out of the restaurant to see what was going on . Among Su Wan's five husbands the one grandmother Su feared the most was Lin Yan , with that fierce warrior like expression, tall and strong body and that that poisonous tongue that respected no one - Grandmother Su didn't want to face Lin Yan and get her old face thrown on the ground so she hurriedly escaped without looking back.

That night when Grandma Su returned home ,she was so upset that she ended up getting a fever . She would toss this way and that , grumbling to Su Bai about the heavy losses they were suffering . Su Bai didn't think that his mother would actually travel so far to the docks , however when he found out that his mother didn't come to know about his insulting incident . He heaved a sigh of relief and then left Chu Yin to take care of his mother , with no Su Wan to take care of their fields , the responsibility of taking care of those fields fell on Su Bai 's shoulder, the Su family loved to see their earnings but they were lazy when it came to working for their earnings .

Previously , Su Wan took care of the fields , she alone was responsible for weeding , sowing seeds and harvesting - Su Bai only wrapped their crops and took them to the market for selling . Of course it goes without saying that the entire profit fell in his pockets and nothing was given to Su Wan except new work load .

Now that Su Wan wasn't here to work on the fields, Su Bai who had never worked on the fields was finding it hard to work in the fields . He wanted to hire help to weed and harvest his fields but it was the autumn season and many villagers were already busy with their own fields and those who were free - they were asking a wage of twenty cents a day .

Twenty cents wasn't much but to Su Bai who was used to ordering Su Wan around and having his fields weeded , sowed and harvested without spending a single cent found it too expensive . In the end Su Bai decided to harvest his fields on his own but there was a problem , no one in his family was ready to help him out . Chu Yin would complain about her waist and Su Lan would skip on work saying that her skin was prone to darkening if exposed to sun too much as she was preparing to get married , she couldn't risk it . And Su Cheng was his family's little darling , he was carrying everyone's dream of becoming a family of official on his shoulder , there was no way Su Bai could ask Su Cheng to help and disturb his studies .

So he could only grit his teeth and do the work on his own . However , after a week of hard work he couldn't do it anymore , thus when he returned home after working for the entire day , Su Bai headed to Su Lan's room directly .
