" Spring festival will be here soon" muttered Lin Rui breaking the silence as he ate his cold noodles silently, it was delicious, really delicious but the number of chilli flakes was - umm, how should he say it…… enough to bring tears in his eyes. He wanted to ask Su Wan why she did it but then he remembered what Lin Chen has said, of course, she was mad! He indirectly called her petty and vengeful like that, knowing full well that Su Wan hated it when others talked bad behind her back, so he could only suffer in silence and think of something to distract him off his burning tongue.

  " That's right" piped Lin Chen from the side, now his hangover was mostly gone after drinking the hangover soup made by Lin Yan and he was back to his lively self, ignoring the extreme ' hoo-hoo and hah hah's' that were coming from his side, he looked at Su Wan with a flattering smile " We can sell the pigs that we have raised going by their size and weight I am sure we will be able to sell them for a good ten taels."

  Su Wan who was thinking about ignoring him suddenly felt something pointy and warm skim her foot, at first she was startled but that was until she noticed the sly smile on Lin Chen's face. The latter was looking at her with that ' good for nothing' smirk of his whenever he was thinking of doing something naughty. And sure enough, when she looked down it was indeed Lin Chen's big feet that were touching and prodding hers. She narrowed her eyes and swiftly took her feet away before stomping on Lin Chen's feet, really shameless, he was actually teasing her in front of his brothers and what's more, three kids were sitting here too! Did he sell all his shame?

  " Oww!" Lin Chen who wasn't prepared to be retaliated against, let out a sharp sound that made everyone jump. Especially Lin Jing who was sitting just next to him, actually Lin Jing wasn't someone who would be startled like this but when Lin Chen jumped he knocked into Lin Jing's elbow making the latter choke on his egg drop soup.

  " LIN CHEN!" Lin Jing who was red in his face because of the unnecessary pain that he received without any warning glared at Lin Chen, he was angry enough to send Lin Chen flying but Qi Zhi who was sitting next to him was looking at him with wide eyes that were filled with tears, if he knocked Lin Chen down right now, then it will scare the little boy, so he could only smile at Lin Chen with a grin that was worse than that of the devil " what are you doing, my dear little brother?"

  " Ah that …… its,… it's because an ant bit me" Lin Chen who was grasping the fibula straw of his survival hurriedly came up with this excuse that made Su Wan choke on her noodles.

  ' an ant? She was an ant? Really?' Su Wan wanted to stomp on Lin Chen's feet once again but this time the latter was smarter, he knew what was coming for him, so he immediately pulled his leg back and saved himself from being stomped on.

  " That's right, an ant, elder brother" Lin Chen who has already dug his grave could only continue with his half-truth and half lies "It's summer so it's not surprising that ants are causing trouble"

  Lin Jing still felt that there was something off about Lin Chen but he decided not to chase the matter anymore and stood up from his chair before going to the water vat kept outside the room which they used to wash their hands with and washed his chin and the front of his clothes that were dripping with egg drop soup. It was summer so there was no need to worry about catching a cold, so Lin Jing simply wiped the clothes to get rid of the smell and didn't change them after all an extra set of dirty clothes meant extra work and what was the point of changing clothes when he was going to work in the fields anyway?

  Lin Jing's thoughts process was simple but when he returned to the dining room dripping like a Greek God, he certainly sent Su Wan's entire thoughts haywire. She looked at the front of his shirt that was sticking to his chest, enunciating every curve of his pectoral muscles and abs, then her gaze followed the water droplets that were mixing with his sweat and trickling down the Netherlands- she immediately felt blood rush to her head and had to clamp her hand on her nose. " Jing, are you going to the fields in that appearance?"

  Lin Jing didn't think that there was anything wrong with his appearance, though his clothes were a bit wet they would become like that after working in the fields anyway, even though they left for the fields early in the morning, the temperature would slowly rise and his clothes would start sticking to his body once he started sweating. So how could there be anything wrong with how he was looking right now? So he quietly muttered an " En" that sent Su Wan into a frenzy.

  'En?' What does he mean by that? Can't he see that like this he will become the protagonist of X rated fantasies of many women! Su Wan was very unhappy, her husbands looked so good that sometimes she wanted to keep them all to herself and not let anyone see but it wasn't possible! The thought that others will see Lin Jing like this too made her really upset.

  Lin Jing noticed that Su Wan was pouting he didn't understand why she was looking so upset. He thought that maybe it was because he was wearing wet clothes and she was worried about him catching a cold…… how can the simple and honest Lin Jing who was yet to become as sly as his brothers understand that his wife was actually jealous of anyone else seeing him like that, so he softly said " Don't worry, I will be fine. This much is nothing, I rarely catch a cold"

  Su Wan : (??-?)? dude are you serious?

  Qi Mei who saw that her eldest brother couldn't catch on to what her sister in law was feeling helpfully stretched her hand out " Eldest brother, Sister in law is jealous because you look really good like this"

  Su Wan: ≧☉_☉≦ AHHHH!!
