Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 255 - Biased

Once Lin Yan and the others walked away, Mother Lin smiled awkwardly at her daughter whom she was seeing after more than five years. She didn't know what and how to face this daughter of her, after all, Lin Yan was right. When Lin Yu fell from the cliff and they needed money to treat his leg, they have tried to borrow money from this second daughter of her. But instead of giving them money, her second daughter created a fuss saying that even with five brothers who were tall and sturdy she has to fork money out of her pocket. Her daughter kept crying and complaining that she didn't have money and even if she did, she couldn't lend them any money because her husband and mother in law wouldn't let her.

Mother Lin knew and completely understood her son in law. She knew that her son in law was a good-natured and simple man as long as her daughter asked him, her son in law would have lent their family that small sum of money. But her daughter refused without asking her husband which clearly showed her intentions of not lending her maternal family any money.

" Yi 'er, you are here ?" though Mother Lin felt that awkward and flustered, she still smiled happily when she saw her daughter walking towards her. After all, she was her daughter and came out of her womb, she couldn't just break all relationships with her, Could she?

" Why are you talking like that mother? Are you still blaming Yi'er ?" said Lin Yi, her round eyes reddened slightly as she walked towards her mother and tugged on her mother's sleeves. She knew that she was in the wrong for not giving money to her family but she was also helpless, she has two daughters and a son and it requires a lot of money to raise three kids with her husband's earning. In the end, she was a married woman and her heart was biased towards her husbands and children compared to her brothers. Therefore, she didn't bring out any money back then, she thought it was just a small injury after all her son was so naughty and kept falling from a cliff here and there, but never seriously got hurt. She didn't take Lin Yu's injury seriously, she really had no idea that her fifth brother's leg would turn limp because of delaying his treatment.

As soon as mother Lin saw her daughter's red eyes, she couldn't bring herself to blame her - she brought Lin Yi and the woman who was accompanying her inside the shed and scooped some warm fish stew for both of them " how could Yi 'er say this, mother - mother knows of your troubles and understand them. It's not easy to be a daughter in law and mother of three children, I know that you love your brothers no matter what and you will never toss out the relationship with your brothers just like that "

"Indeed, I will never toss them out of my heart but it doesn't mean they wouldn't either, " said Lin Yi coldly glaring at Lin Jing " I know my brothers have grown up and they all have their own minds. They no longer need to listen to their family, and have tossed their sisters aside just with a flick of their fingers"

Lin Jing who was sipping his fish stew choked and spluttered, he understood why his sister was angry. He knew that his sister was blaming him for not inviting her to their wedding but just as she had her own struggles, they had their own struggles as well. However, he didn't want to fight with his little sister and smiled apologetically before saying " how can that be? Yi 'er you are still big brother's younger sister and you will always be my sister. Mother why are you giving sister only fish stew give her some pickled fish and rice, add some stir-fried pork and vegetables too"

Seeing that no one blamed her anymore, Lin Yi set her heart down and immediately took the bowl of rice from her mother. She looked around the table and her gaze fell on Su Wan for a second before she turned to Lin Jing and started lecturing him in a good-natured manner " Eldest brother it's not that I? as your younger sister want to lecture you but you should really think about your family. You should be more thoughtful about your brothers as the eldest son of our family "

Lin Jing didn't say anything and continued to smile in an apologetic manner before continuing with his meal.

Mother Lin more or less understood what Lin Yi was trying to do and her gaze flickered to Su Wan who was eating her meal without bothering to listen to Lin Yi and heaved a sigh of relief. She immediately turned to look at Lin Yi and spoke " Yi 'er you should finish your meal first and what you want to say can be said later on, alright ?"

" Later? What do you mean by later mother?? Now I don't even have the right to say something to my brothers ?" these words greatly infuriated Lin Yi, her gaze greedily swept past the table that was laden with fish, pork and green vegetables. If her brothers listened to her then everything would have been kept safe for their family. Now a good for nothing, who had no relationship with them was enjoying it, while she and her children were forced to live on coarse grain flatbread! How can Lin Yi be not unhappy? She glanced at Su Wan furiously before turning to Lin Jing " brother, tell me what is it that you were not satisfied with? Tell me what can you possibly dislike in He Rong? She is a lot more capable than a certain someone who only has fair skin to her advantage and nothing more !"

Earlier when Su Wan heard the underlying meaning of her sister in law's words , she didn't say anything but this sister in law actually brought her a ' good sister ' really ? She was really daring ! Ah !
