Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 98 - Unpleasant



Chapter 98 – Unpleasant

Once Lin Yu was settled down and he started working on his new job as the boss , Su Wan and Lin Yan left him to do so in the embroidery shop and the two of them went to check on the restaurant to see if everything was alright . Su Wan wanted to check whether her new dishes made any changes and whether the dock workers were liking the new and novel dishes but when Su Wan reached the docks where her restaurant was located at, instead of finding a long queue of customers she actually ended up seeing someone unpleasant . 

Su Bai was having a small scuffle with two thick neck bodyguards that seem to be standing in front of their restaurant . They seemed to be throwing Su Bai out but Su Bai  indignant and enraged was fighting tooth and nail " this is my restaurant you cannot just throw me out of my own restaurant ! What do you mean I was trying to steal ? I am the boss here , if I want to take away the money you can't stop me !"

But the thick neck bodyguard didn't listen instead he picked Su Bai up and shook him like he was shaking a cloth to get rid of dust and debris, crinkling silver taels fell from Su Bai 's clothes and the others bodyguard picked it all up , he even wrenched open Su Bai 's fist and took out the taels that he was clenching in his hand . Once he was done , he checked Su Bai 's body again and only when he was certain that Su Bai had no taels left on his body did he nodded at the other bodyguard who let Su Bai go and drop on the dock floor on his back . 

The always immaculately clean and elegant Su Bai now looked like a mess , his clothes were in a mess and his face was flushed . He glared at the two bodyguards in front of him and seemed to be having a hard time breathing . 

A few days ago his son returned home and complained that Su Wan had spread the matter of the restaurant belonging to her dead mother in the town , Su Cheng complained that his friends had a small debt of a few taels but Su Wan actually insulted his friends and made them cough out the money – this friend of his was none other than Surname Zheng , the son if shopkeeper Zheng . 

Su Cheng complained that Surname Zheng used to treat him really nicely at first but now because of Su Wan his image was ruined and Surname Zheng was targeting him worse than ever . Su Cheng cried and gave him the ultimatum that if he didn't get the restaurant back for him and brought him all its savings so that he can give it all to Surname Zheng and appease him , he won't go to school at all . 

Su Cheng was Su Bai 's precious son  , Su Bai doted on this son of his the most and Su Cheng was his key to achieving his dream of becoming an official . 

Su Bai was already regretting letting Su Wan take the deeds of Shen Shui 's shops with her , however bad their condition was at least they generated an income of two taels together at the end of the year , for his home where everyone ate but no-one worked these shops were golden egg laying goose . 

And when Su Cheng returned and shouted at him for being too muddle headed , Su Bai really couldn't take it anymore . So today , he came to the town wanting to reclaim his ownership on the restaurant , but then he saw that the restaurant that was always empty was filled to brim there was a long queue to take away food . Su Bai who was hesitating felt that all his hesitation vanished in an instant all he cared about the money , he didn't care who and how the restaurant became so popular – so just like always he barged in and tried to take the money away but Xiao Shi was no longer the same with Su Wan as backing he at once called the bodyguards who were standing guard at the shop entrance and told them that Su Bai was trying to steal , the bodyguards were newly hired they had no idea who Su Bai was , they heard Xiao Shi who was like a young master in the restaurant and deeply trusted by Lin Yan , so they at once apprehended Su Bai as a criminal . 

Su Bai felt that he has suffered great humiliation so he immediately looked around to find a new target to let his steam off and that's when he saw Su Wan , he immediately jumped on his feet and pointed at Su Wan , shouting as spit flew from his mouth – the dock workers who were watching the drama immediately pulled back but Su Bai didn't care all his attention was focussed on Scolding Su Wan " You unfilial brat what have you done ? This shop is mine ! The Su family and yet you actually dared to throw your own father out of the restaurant like a petty thief ? Are you trying to ruin my reputation or you are trying to kill me ! "

Lin Yan never liked this father in law of his , he still remembers that when they were trying to find a wife , they were looking one with the human traders but Su Bai who was actually dressed like a young master came to them and told them that his family was suffering a lot , that his mother was sick and old and he needed money for her treatment so he wanted to sell one of daughter who was a virgin unlike the one in the human traders shop , Lin Yan could feel Su Bai 's hypocrisy from a mile away – dressed like an emperor yet have no money to treat your mother , really ? But Su Bai was articulate and a charmer when he wanted to be , and Su Wan was indeed pretty compared to the ones they could afford at the traders , so they agreed but now that Su Bai had actually forgotten his place , Lin Yan had no trouble reminding him " what do you mean ? Mr . Su , if I'm not wrong you sold Su Wan to me for ten taels and she brought the shops that belonged to her mother's dowry – what do you mean the shops are still yours ? I Don't think I need to remind you that by the law passed by the emperor , the dowry of a married woman will only belong to her husband if he remains a widower after her death but you married your current wife just after a month of Wan Wan 's mother's death – in that case her mother's dowry either belongs to her or to her maternal family , you have no claim on it "

The current emperor was a concubine born , that is to say he was an illegitimate heir of the throne , he and his mother had suffered a lot under the Empress , thus when he set on the throne dethroning the previous Emperor he worked hard to raise the status of women  though it wasn't much but it was still better than before at least women now had the right to control their own dowry . 

Su Bai who was busy scolding Su Wan choked up in between he was so focused on scolding Su Wan he didn't even see Lin Yan who right beside her !
