Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 643 Believe on just anything

　　" But will the villagers fall into your trap?" asked Old Madam Feng as she looked at her son who was smiling like a fool. "  You did everything but what if the villagers do not listen to you? Then what are you going to do?" 

　　" Don't worry mother, the villagers are easy to fool," said Feng Zihang looking completely relaxed as if he wasn't even bothered about the possibility of the villagers not listening to him. " You know what kind of people are easiest to fool? The ones who are jealous of others' success. The villagers might be acting like they are really happy about the Lin brothers' success but the truth is that they are so jealous that they might not be sleeping at night, now that I have told them that there might be another option a much worse option that can be behind the success of the five brothers than do you think that they will not accept it?" 

　　" I don't know, will they?" said Old madam Feng sounding completely bewildered. 

　　" They will, I bet my entire fortune that they will believe what I have told them without blinking their eyes," said Feng Zihang as he slapped his thigh and let out a wince later on. " People are looking for a way to look down on the one who is high above them, I have heard them talk even the one whose wives are working  for the Lin family even they talk behind their back what are you talking about?"

　　A sly smile came on his lips as he started rubbing his hands together as he said, " Just you wait till the morning, I am sure that the villagers will create another version of their story by then." 

　　" Wan Wan? Where are you going?" Lin Chen who was working in the courtyard saw Su Wan step out of his second brother's room and frowned as he saw that she was all dressed up. " What are you doing?" 

　　Though he didn't want to chain Su Wan inside the house by stopping her from leaving anywhere she wanted to go but he was not sure how was the situation outside the village at the moment. If someone was to say anything upsetting to Su Wan then he wasn't sure if he will be able to manage his anger then —— and his eldest brother told him to make sure to control his anger no matter what happens. 

　　"I am going to look at whats the condition of the fields," said Su Wan as if it was an obvious thing to do, she put on her shoes that were sitting outside the room and then walked towards the entrance door of their house. " After what happened last night the fields were very badly burned we have to take care of it properly if we still want to grow crops in it or else who knows what might happen if we were to leave it alone like that?" 

　　" Wait! Wait!" Lin Chen, who heard her words immediately rushed after her and came to a stop as he looked at her and said, " You are saying that even after everything that happened yesterday night, you want to go out?" 

　　" Why not?"Su Wan asked back with her brows raised. " You want me to stay at home? Hide from the villagers just because they might have believed that I am a witch? No one is scaring me into staying at home just because they think that I am a witch. I have done nothing wrong that I need to be ashamed of if anyone thinks that I have done something then they are free to judge but I will not hide in my  house like I am a refugee criminal who ran out of prison." 

　　" But what if they try to hurt you?" Earlier in the morning, two Yamen officers came to their house and asked Lin Yan to come with them. Lin Jing was worried that the Yamen officers might make things difficult for Lin Yan alone, so he went along with the latter and Lin Yu who ran around last night was still asleep after taking medicine for the pain in his limp leg. 

　　The uncles were still in the village but they ran out to see what was the situation outside because they were worried Lin Chen would get in a fight so they asked him to stay at home and keep Su Wan company. 

　　" Like I will give them a chance to hurt me, whoever tries to hurt me needs to think twice whether or not they are capable of hurting me or not," said Su Wan with an eye roll as she started to walk past Lin Chen. " You can come if you want or you can stay at home as you wish, I won't drag you along with me but I won't let you stop me either." 

　　Can Lin Chen let her go alone? There was no way he could have let her go. So, he chased after her as well worried that she will get entangled in another mess. 

　　And it was a good thing that he rushed after Su Wan because the second they stepped out of the house, the entire group of villagers who were walking outside looked at them as if they were two-headed monsters with protruding fangs. 

　　" What?" Su Wan snapped when one of the women pointed at her and whispered something to the woman next to her. " What are you whispering about? If you have something to say then come and say it to my face what are you hissing among yourself for?" 

　　When the women said nothing and started to scamper away, Song Ya shouted back. " What? Don't have the courage to spout nonsense now? But you will believe any bullshit dropped on your heads, should have known that people will eat anything that's given to them for free even if it's shit!" 

　　The group of women flushed even more and rushed away even faster.
