Chapter 574 Mountain of wisdom?
Days went by day by day and in just a blink of an eye, it was the weekend, the day the old master arrived at the Dong Tong town. After getting ready Su Wan accompanied her husbands as she stepped out of the house and the Lin family together with the Shen brothers drove the carriage to the Sheng temple.
When they were almost there, Su Wan poked her head out of the window and wasn\'t surprised that the entire temple was filled with people. However, just as thought that they might have to stand in a line, the carriage turned around and drove through a narrow alley that led to the back of the temple.
As the carriage pulled to a stop, Lin Yan slipped out of the carriage while Lin Chen helped her to climb down the steps of the carriage. Unlike the wide stairs that she was used to the steps of the carriage were really small., which was why Su Wan used to hop down straight from the carriage instead of climbing the steps down but she could no longer do that.
" Though the crowd here is not as big as the one in front, it\'s better for you to stay next to us," said Lin Yan as he worriedly looked at the small group that was huddled in the backyard of the temple. His gaze dropped to Su Wan\'s abdomen and then his worries increased, even more, it wasn\'t even three months yet if Su Wan got so much as startled then it would be really a troublesome situation for them.
" Second brother is right," Lin Yu too was frowning as he limped out of the carriage and then looked at the temple that was filled with people. Even though it was only a total of fifteen or sixteen people, Su Wan\'s pregnancy was not stable yet, if someone pushed her and she got hurt, then what are they going to do?
" Cheer up will you?" After stepping out Su Wan took a look around and nearly had an urge to roll her eyes, it was just a group of ten people but her husbands were acting like she was heading to a war zone with her pregnant belly. " Everything is going to be fine."
Though Su Wan said that the scowls on the faces of the Lin brothers didn\'t ease, even Lin Jing who was the easiest to get along with silently sidled up to Su Wan and kept looking around with unease flickering on his face.
Madam Zhu saw them like this and nearly laughed out loud but knowing how scary pregnancy was for first-time fathers, she decided to suppress her urge to giggle and headed straight to Su Wan before handing her a thin veil. "It\'s considered unlucky for a pregnant woman to show her face in the public, many believe that invites the devil in, so use this to hide your face."
Then she patted Su Wan\'s head and added, " I know that it will be a bit uncomfortable but bear with it, I am still waiting for my healthy grandnephew or niece."
" Most certainly niece," chimed Madam Huo from afar.
Trying to suppress the curl of her lips, Madam Zhu nodded. " That\'s right, a niece will be best."
Su Wan took the veil that Madam Zhu was handing her and carefully put it on.
Once everyone was done, the family started to climb the stairs one by one. However, the Shen uncles went first to ensure a quick and smooth entrance for their family members while the Lin brothers stayed next to Su Wan throughout the time.
However, just as everyone walked in and Shen Junxi went to ask the monk about their turn when a voice called out to them from behind. " Junxi, Zizhen? What are you doing here?"
Shen Junxi and Shen Zizhen who have walked away from their group paused while Madam Huo and Madam Zhu quickly hid behind the tall profiles of the Lin brothers. They didn\'t want to get entangled in the mess that their husbands made, it was better for them to deal with it first.
" Mother?" After recovering from his shock Shen Junxi was the first to greet his mother while Shen Zizhen was a beat slower than him.
Ji Shan who was walking next to Old madam Shen smiled shyly as she introduced herself. " Eldest uncle, Second uncle, I am Ji Shan, the Ji of wisdom and Shan of the mountain. How have you been?"
Shen Junxi simply ignored her while Shen Zizhen rolled his eyes—— \'mountain of wisdom?\' This girl sure had a rather strong name for someone whose head was so thick and dumb.
Old madam Shen immediately got upset, as she saw her sons\' attitude towards Ji Shan. She finally understood that her sons weren\'t just spitting empty threats in their letters, they really didn\'t want to accept Ji Shan as their niece. " You two, why are you acting like this? I know that you think I am being disrespectful by doing this but you know that I have always been waiting for a granddaughter. And look Shan Shan looks just like Shui Shui, see."
Ji Shan bit her lip and clenched her hands but she didn\'t look away and let Shen Junxi and Shen Zizhen look at her face. Right now, her face that was eighty per cent similar to her aunt was her greatest weapon, if she could use this face to win over Old madam Shen, she could definitely win her uncles! She tried to act as naive and innocent, and couldn\'t understand a thing about what was going on but the eagerness in her eyes couldn\'t be hidden.
She knew that if she wanted to live a comfortable life at the Shen family it was really important for her to attract the attention of these three uncles, she has heard from her biological grandfather that Old madam Shen was sick, and she could die at any moment. So, only by garnering the love of her uncles will she be able to live peacefully!
