Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 642 Twenty thousand taels!

　　" Oh dear goodness!" shouted madam Feng as she took in the condition of her son, she looked at the beaten up condition of her son and shook her head as she hurried the villagers inside the house. " Here, lay him down here." She pointed to the small bed that sat in the main hall of the house. 

　　The villagers did as they were asked while one of the over-enthusiastic ones said, " We have called Doctor Gu, he will be here shortly, Old madam Feng." 

　　The old madam Feng nodded as if she was distracted and then carefully touched the wound on the face of her son as she said, " Just look at this, just look how cruelly they have beaten him, what wrong did he even say? That girl is really such a jinx, my son just said a few words against her and look how he was beaten up by her husband, God knows what kind of magic she has performed over the Lin brothers that they won't hear a thing against her." 

　　Though old madam Lin didn't leave the house, she was completely informed about what happened in the fields by the villagers who were there, before the villagers returned with Feng Zihang, she already knew what has happened to her son and thus wasn't surprised when she saw the poor condition of her son. 

　　Old madam Feng sobbed for a while and the villagers who came to drop Feng Zihang felt a little awkward as they looked at each other, at first they didn't think much about it and just thought that Feng Zihang was saying things out of spite but now that they were listening to the same things all over again, they couldn't help but think about what Feng Zihang said earlier once again. 

　　" Old madam Feng, we will be taking our leave all right?" said one of the villagers as they walked out of the Feng house, though their minds were racing they didn't say anything and just left the Feng house, once they were gone Old madam Feng's tears dried up like smoke as she raised her hand and slapped her son in the arm ruthlessly. " Did I not tell you that you should stay at home and not go anywhere? Why don't you listen to me huh? I told you that this entire plan was nothing but a quick way to suicide but you didn't listen to a thing I have to say, you idiot!" 

　　Feng Zihang who was lying dead on the bed let out a wince and then sat up straight as he said, " Why do you have to do that mother, you almost broke the skin, can't you see I am hurting? At least be careful with me, all right?" 

　　" Careful with you? Not even my shoe will be careful with you." snapped Old madam Feng as she smacked Feng Zihang again and again, " Not only did you divorce your wife, you even got yourself beaten up like this, what's the matter with you? What were you thinking while divorcing Xin Shi now who will take care of your house and your kids?" 

　　" What do you know mother?" said Feng Zihang as he pushed himself a little more and sat by leaning against the wall with a repeated notion of 'ow, ow, ow.' He fished out the pouch of money he was carrying inside his shirt and fished out a gold tael. " Do you see this?" He clicked the golden tael with his teeth and bit on it with his teeth. " Solid gold, have you ever seen something like this ever before in your life?" 

　　Old madam Feng snatched the gold tael from her son and chewed on it with her old teeth as well, she was surprised to find that the tael was the real deal. " This is really gold?" 

　　" And it's just not one," said Feng Zihang as he fished out the pouch and poured everything out of it. " There are twenty of them do you know how much money this is? Twenty thousand silver taels! We are rich!" 

　　" Twenty thousand?" Old madam Feng nearly swooned as she heard her son say that the money in their hands was worth so much, she hasn't even seen one silver tael much less so many gold ones. 

　　" Yes, twenty thousand!" Feng Zihang hurriedly piled the gold taels back in his pouch and then tied it around his neck again. " And this is just the advance payment if I get that Lin family burned like they deserve to be then we will get fifty gold taels, can you believe it? With that much sum of money, I can marry a missy from the town and get a bride price that no one in the village would have thought about. Why are you fearing about Xin Shi not being here? As long as we have this money in our pockets, we can have a hundred Xin Shi if that's what you want." 

　　Old madam Feng was really surprised, she couldn't wrap her mind around this sudden change as she looked at her son and the bulge in his shirt. Just a few days ago they were so poor that they couldn't even think about getting a piece of meat much less a new wife and now —— " Son, this client that you caught is sure generous, how did you meet them?"

　　" I did nothing mother, they were the ones who came to me, all right? It's not my fault that Su Wan woman has offended so many people that they are after her life," A few days ago when Su Wan took care of Feng Dai and Feng Zhai's fields, Feng Zihang was really furious and would spend hours cursing that woman for being nosy, but it wasn't till yesterday when a man in black approached him and gave him this task of taking down the Lin family. It wasn't a simple task but the man not only gave him a plan but also baited him with the amount that he was now carrying in his hands, how can Feng Zihang not accept the task? It was like impossible to not take it in hand!
