BXBX NOVEL Chapter 395 - [Bonus ]
However, right now, it was more important to save his skin. He turned his head to look at Su Wan with a flattering smile. He didn\'t know when Su Wan arrived, but maybe she just came now, and his skin was saved? Right? He exchanged a furtive glance with his elder brother before speaking to Su Wan, "W..wife, you are here? Did you come to deliver lunch to us?"
Su Wan raised her eyebrows and looked at the guilty expressions; she knew something was up. Curling her lips, she sweetly smiled and said, "Shouldn\'t I be here?"
"No! No! What - I mean, of course you do!" said Lin Chen shaking his head like a drum. "It\'s just that you scared us. Fang Dai was telling us a horror story. He said he saw a ghost hovering around the mass graveyard, and that kind of startled us, and then you suddenly came, so we kind of - got a scare."
His excuses were full of lies, but Su Wan, who had already glanced around, understood the situation. Ever since her husbands came to work here in the fields, the village girls who loved to play around started to work in the fields. Every time she came to deliver food to her husbands, she would see a myriad of girls, thin, tall, ugly, beautiful, fat, slender. It was like watching a Harem battle.
She lightly glanced at the women who were eyeing her husbands, and they immediately looked away. The girls were not happy at all. They came to the fields every day to attract the Lin brothers\' attention. They thought that they were beautiful. Every day the girls will dress up and believe that they will definitely make the Lin brothers turn their heads in their directions. But then Su Wan would come with her stupid lunch box, and all the limelight would be stolen from them.
Today as well, Su Wan was dressed in a light sea green dress, making her skin look even fairer. She looked beautiful because she was living a better life now. Her figure had changed a lot. Now she was no longer a skinny girl whose curves were hidden under her clothes. No - now her dress was accentuating her voluptuous figure.
With their improved lives, not only Lin Chen and Lin Jing changed, even Su Wan changed, they have finally bid goodbye to their old clothes. They can dress up in expensive soft garments.
Together they looked like a Queen with her subjects.
The women all glanced at Su Wan, standing tall in front of them. Without a speck of dirt on her clothes, she was stunning, and then they looked down at their mud-covered clothes. A furious rage lit up in their hearts. Why? They weren\'t bad themselves, so why could Su Wan stand up there with her immaculate clothes while they had to dirty their hands like this?
Fine! If they can\'t challenge her in looks, they might challenge her in something else!
One of the girls exchanged a look with her mother, this girl\'s name was Fei Yang, and she was once a friend of Luo Chenxi. But later on, her reputation suffered a lot when Luo Chenxi\'s affair was caught. Fei Yang tried to attract Lin Jing, thinking that he was the oldest of the Lin brothers and had the most authority in the house.
She thought that she looked good and with her looks, the ugly scar-faced Lin Jing should take a liking to her but unexpectedly she was ignored! Fei Yang was a young girl of sixteen. She couldn\'t handle this blow to her pride and started hating Su Wan. She couldn\'t hate Lin Jing because he was the ticket to her good life, so she diverted her hatred to Su Wan, the soft persimmon. (lol)
Mother Fei caught her daughter\'s eye and then nudged her friend, who urged the other women. No one knew who was the one who started the conversation. "Lin\'s wife looks really good, doesn\'t she? After eating and sleeping well, she is filling up quite nicely. However, there is still no good news. My daughter was married after her. Still, she already got pregnant in the second month of her marriage. It\'s been more than nine months, and soon it will be a year, yet there is no news from her belly. Isn\'t it worrisome?"
"It is worrisome," chimed another. "Su Wan is a shared wife, no? Suppose she was only married to a single man. In that case, there could have been chances of having trouble in her husband\'s body, but there are five husbands. If they work hard, how can it be that her belly didn\'t make a sound?"
"I think she is infertile, a barren girl," laughed another woman. "No wonder her parents sold her, with such a good dowry, she should have been married off to a lord. She became a shared wife; if not for being a chicken that can\'t lay eggs, why else would she be sold?"
It has been almost a year since the villagers saw the vicious and cruel side of Su Wan, so they had forgotten that she wasn\'t a dog that didn\'t bite. She was a wolf that tears her enemies into shreds.
She wasn\'t the only one who heard the loud jeerings of the women. Lin Jing and Lin Chen also heard them. Lin Chen was so angry that he jumped up and bared his fangs and stared at the husbands of the village women and snarled, "You better control your wives! Don\'t forget that much of your livelihood comes from our restaurant and shops! Do you think my brother and I will stay silent if your wives run their mouths like this? I am telling you! I have marked your wives on my list! The next time you come to sell vegetables in our restaurant or embroidery pieces in the shop, just wait and see!"
The expression of the men changed while they glared at their wives, they were working so hard to earn a sum of money, and yet these stupid women made unnecessary trouble! The husbands of the women who made trouble were stifling their anger while the others whose wives smartly refrained from joining in heaved a sigh of relief.
Lin Jing too glared at the women and threw a handful of mud in their direction with a sharp glare. "Apologise!" he snarled.
The women were stunned. They didn\'t think that the Lin brothers would jump in. Don\'t men stay out of women quarrels? One of the daring ones jumped and sneered, "And you call yourselves men! No wonder your wife\'s stomach didn\'t make a sound! Such nosy husbands who interfere in women squabbling, you aren\'t even men! Just go home and wear makeup like women! Who are you threatening? So what if you don\'t buy vegetables from us? We can always sell it to someone else! We just talked casually, and you jumped at us like a pair of nosy bitches! Aren\'t you ashamed?"
"You -" Lin Chen hurriedly started in that woman\'s husband\'s direction. He couldn\'t beat the woman here. Still, he will definitely teach that man a good lesson.
However, Su Wan pulled him back, she was happy that they came to her defense, but she didn\'t want them to ruin their reputation because of this. She strode forward and stared down at that woman who just spoke with a contemptuous smirk and said, "What are you getting angry for? Isn\'t it clear the only good thing about them is their ability to give birth and nothing else? It\'s not their foul mouths that are doing the talking; it\'s their jealousy.. After all, how else can they compare with me? But then again, what\'s so good about giving birth? Even sows can give birth, but can they earn money? If you have the ability, go and stand on my level before running that foul mouth of yours."
