Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 646 Do you know that

　　Lin Chen turned his head and rounded his gaze right at the small child who has stepped out of the crowd and was now looking at them boldly without a hint of hesitation shame or anything, in fact, he was standing outside the crowd with a determined expression like he was some sort of knight who was facing the monster and had done something absolutely right. 

　　Because the culprit turned out to be a child, Lin Chen couldn't say a thing but Su Wan was different, she swept her gaze over the crowd before looking at the child as she asked, " where are your parents?" 

　　The kid stiffened but didn't say anything and nor did anyone from the crowd stepped out, her lips curled in a sardonic smile as she picked a rock from Lin Chen's palm and started playing with it as she threw it up and down before speaking, " Hmm don't tell me that your parents don't know how to teach their kid how to respect others? I mean teaching their kid to throw a rock at others like this? Aren't they ashamed of their teaching?" 

　　" I did nothing wrong," upon hearing that his parents were being talked down upon, the kid's cheeks flushed as he glared at Su Wan with a stubborn gaze. " You are a witch, you should be killed by burning alive, I just threw a rock, what's wrong with what I did?" 

　　" You brat——" Lin Chen made a sudden move towards the child as if he wanted to hold him down but then Su Wan stopped him and with a smile, she raised the rock over her head and said, " And do you know little kids who throw a rock at their adults despite knowing that it will hurt them are called little devil spawns going by that I should break open your head as well." And with that, she made a move like she was aiming the sharp rock at the child but then a loud shout came from the crowd and a tall and lanky woman came running as she threw herself over the child to cover him up. 

　　It was a moving scene and would have continued to be one if only the rock would have hit the target, the rock didn't hit the target and when the woman realised that nothing was happening, she understood what Su Wan was trying to do and her expression turned awkward as she raised her head and looked at Su Wan who raised her brows and looked at her with a mocking smile playing on her lips.  " So, he is your son Huiqing?" 

　　The woman who came running out to save her son from the crowd was one of the village women who was being supported by the Lin family, she was in fact the one who was the hardest working woman among all but she had a little flaw, she desperately wanted to fit into the village women because her husband who was a good for nothing lay on the bed all day and did nothing, it was her who took care of everything. For most of the time she had to work twice as hard as anyone to fit into the crowd and make it look like she was just like them but the thing was that she didn't have the means to do so. 

　　It wasn't until the Lin family started sponsoring her by buying all the embroidery that she has been sewing and giving her a job as the temporary worker of their family. Everything was fine and dandy but then the rumours about Su Wan being a witch started to roam around the village, and women started to talk bad about Su Wan despite being sponsored by the Lin family, at first HuiQing was a little scared of saying anything but when the women said that she was being too nice to Su Wan because she supported her, Hui Qing panicked and she hurriedly started to talk about Su Wan behind her back as well.

　　She was afraid that if she was a step too late she will be isolated by everyone just as Su Wan was being isolated, so she too started to join in the conversation with the women of the village, saying whatever came to her mouth. 

　　But the thing was, her son also heard what she was saying about Su Wan and with his grandmother's teaching, when he picked up the rock Hui Qing didn't even know it wasn't until her son was already done throwing the rock, did she realise that there was such trouble made by her son. Her heart leapt to her throat, and she hurriedly hid behind the crowd hoping that Su Wan won't recognise her son and realise that she was the one who indirectly incited her son to do something like that but who would have thought that Su Wan would pull such a stunt? She caused her to jump from her hiding spot and then run out to save her son only to find out that there was no danger that she needed to protect her son from. 

　　" Mrs Lin," Hui Qing was now stuck in an awkward spot, how was she going to explain that her son did something so dangerous towards her employer under her instigation? " Are you okay? I am really sorry about my son, he heard hearsay from the crowd and jumped to conclusions, I will teach him a good lesson once when we return home, don't worry." 

　　Su Wan ignored her as she turned to look at the child who was now hiding behind his mother seemingly realising that he has done something wrong before she spoke in a loud voice, " Hey kid, do you know? I am the one who pays your mother. All those nice clothes and toys that you are enjoying at the moment are all because I pay your mother for her embroidery at a price that's too good for her skills, did she ever tell you that?"
