Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 569 She couldn’t allow it to be born.

In the Old Lin family.

" What did you say? Who is pregnant?" Old madam Lin who was cooking some millet porridge for her son, dropped the wooden spatula that she was using to stir the porridge and turned to look at her granddaughter, a wild look in her eyes. She wanted to shake her granddaughter up and ask her to say that what she just said was a lie but Lin Yunxi simply pursed her lips and sullenly said, " That bitch Su Wan, who else?"

Then she paused and looked at her grandmother with an angry expression on her face. " Grandmother why is it that my cousins are willing to spoil that woman and yet they are so fierce to us? No matter what we are still their family, flesh and blood! Even if our bones spilt we still belong to the Lin family, shouldn't they be helping us? Why is it that they are like this? They only send you a bag of millet and some copper coins, clearly they are living their best lives. At most, they can change the millet to rice and instead of sending us a few copper coins they should give us a silver taels! With their current income, even giving out a few silver taels would be too less, so why is it that they are acting like this?"

Lin Yunxi's life has taken a turn for the worse ever since her mother and aunt left the house, all the work came to her head. The reason? She was a girl! Her brother was allowed to leave the house and return whenever he wanted and she, on the other hand, stayed behind and wash, clean and sweep the house. Even the weeds in what was left of their farm fields were her responsibility, today while she was tackling those weeds, she saw Su Wan and Lin Yan coming out for a walk.

At first, she didn't pay much attention but then when she took another good look, she realised that Lin Yan was taking care of Su Wan throughout the entire time, and every time she stumbled, he was the first one to hold on to her and what was more he even covered her bloated stomach every time she so much as jerked the slightest bit because of the uneven roads.

And that was when she realised that Su Wan wasn't getting fat! She was pregnant! No matter, how stupid Lin Yunxi was she was smart enough to realise when the two of them were being so obvious about it.

Once this information penetrated her thick skull and coupled with the fact that Lin Yan was being so caring towards that bought woman, her blood started to boil. How can she be not angry? Back then when her family started to get more and more poor, she used to calm her foul mood down believing that Su Wan and her cousins will never have a child.

And even if they did, the child would be nothing but a bastard, after all the child's father would be unknown given there were five candidates but to think that Su Wan was smarter than that, not only she hoodwinked her cousin. She was smart enough to conceive the child in a manner that the father was known! How can she be played so smartly?

Now the two facts that used to give her comfort were gone, that Su Wan who should have remained childless was pregnant and the Lin family was flourishing while they were getting worse and worse!

What was more, she was yet to get married!

The more she thought about it the angrier she got, how can her cousin do something like this? Pampering the one who had no relationships with them and leaving her—— their blood-related cousin to fend for herself.

This was simply awful!

Old madam Lin listened to everything that her granddaughter told her and her expression turned more and more gloomier. That sl*t was pregnant? How was she pregnant? Those five brothers had been married for so long and when no news came from that Su Wan's stomach, she believed that the girl will never get pregnant but contrary to her belief, that sl*t actually conceived!

Infuriated, Old madam Lin threw the wooden spatula on the floor. Good, this was very good! Her son was yet to recover and was still moaning in his bed, her grandson dropped out of the academy because no matter how much they tried to scrimp and save, in the end, they couldn't manage to save the amount required. As for her granddaughter, she was soon going to be seventeen and they didn't even have two taels to rub together to pay for her marriage much less give her dowry.

After all, she couldn't send her only granddaughter on wooden planks can she?

They were suffering so much that each day was like living a day in hell. Yet, those brats actually got their wife pregnant? The more she thought the more her blood pressure rose. Placing one hand on her forehead she swooned.

" Grandmother!" Lin Yunxi reached out to hold her grandmother who was breathing heavily, she knew that her grandmother was angry after all her cousin didn't even look in their direction when her grandmother was running around asking for money to bail her father out in the end they had to sell their farmlands to get him out.

It was an extremely painful decision, one that still caused her heart to ache, every time she thought about it.

But what she didn't know was that —— Old Madam Lin wasn't just unhappy because of this matter alone but what was upsetting her the most was that the first branch was going to flourish and have kids! When the brothers were under her care, she tried her best to stop them from getting married but now—— they had a child on the way!

Her expression twisted and a malevolent glint flashed in her eyes, that bitch's grandsons having children? Never! She still hasn't forgotten how her husband used to miss that b*tch after marrying her!

No, this child can't be allowed to be born!
