Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Lin Chen's sudden scream was so loud that both Lin Yan and Su Wan were startled. Su Wan, who was busy tying the cotton pad around her waist jumped and nearly fell, though she heard most of the conversation outside she still couldn't understand what made Lin Chen shout so desperately " what's wrong? What happened ?"

Luckily, the outhouse was at a distance from the main house and no one heard Lin Chen's mournful cry or else it would have been so embarrassing! Everyone in the house would know that she got her period! Aye, it would be one of the most humiliating moments of her life! 

"Nothing, nothing happened, it seems that Ah Chen slipped in the snow and fell nothing else" Lin Yan didn't know what was wrong with Lin Chen either but he didn't want to worry Su Wan who was in so much pain. It was her first period and they couldn't afford to make any mistake in case she got alarmed and came out in a hurry, her body might catch a cold and her cramps might become even more painful. 

Not to forget, nothing serious happened in the first place so there was no need for Su Wan to worry about Lin Chen. 

Once Lin Yan settled Su Wan, he crouched in front of Lin Chen and whispered snappily " what's wrong with you? Why did you scream like that? Did you get frostbite or something? "

However, Lin Chen was in no condition to answer Lin Yan. All he could think about was the chance he missed to consummate his marriage with his Wan Wan if Lin Rui - if Lin Rui didn't eat that pastry like an idiot then he could have consummated his marriage instead of getting cockblocked like this! This was injustice! Totally unfair! He should have been the one to consummate his marriage with Su Wan! But - but he couldn't! 

Lin Chen was now very regretful if he didn't act like a kind brother last night and dumped Lin Rui in the cold water of the well, he wouldn't have to suffer such an anguishing defeat! Now for a week he could only look at the delicious meat but can't eat it clean! 

He banged his fists in the snow and buried his face on the ground as if he was kowtowing, his shoulders shaking like he was crying tears of bitterness, Lin Yan watched his little brother throw a tantrum and more or less understood what was going on in his mind.  However, there was nothing he could do, he, himself lost his own turn and couldn't do anything about it... So there was no way he could help Lin Chen, all in all, He could only say that it was a matter of - tough luck.

Lin Yan wasn't bothered about it, to him a week later or the week before made no difference, it wasn't like he would lose his ability to make love with his wife if he waited for a week more. They have waited for months another seven days was no problem! What was important was to let Su Wan have all the rest and care she needed while she wasn't feeling well. 

Lin Yan was fine but Lin Chen was not, he jumped on his feet and growled in an incensed manner " Linnnnnn Ruiiiiii! I will never forgive you !" then without waiting for Lin Yan to stop him, he ran away stomping so hard on the snow that he left his footprints behind. 

Lin Yan indeed wanted to stop Lin Chen because he knew that Lin Chen went to settle scores with Lin Rui but then again what happened wasn't Lin Rui's fault and even if it was what happened, has already happened was there a need to harp on it? 

But before he could the door of the outhouse opened and Su Wan stumbled out, Lin Yan hurriedly brought her in his arms and wrapped her in a thick robe, before picking up her in a princess carry. His reason for doing so was simple, Su Wan's complexion was really bad, she looked ten times paler than usual and her brows were all scrunched up because of the pain.

" it's alright, I will bring you to your room - now for the next seven days it will be better for you to stay inside your room and only come out when necessary," said Lin Yan as he walked towards Su Wan's room. The outline of their home was simple, there were a total of nine rooms with a hall and kitchen, the U-shaped building house was just like any typical household in the village with the brothers' room consecutively laying side by side while Su Wan's was in the main building, just opposite to the spring room. 

Because Su Wan's room was in the main building it was warmer when compared to the Lin brothers'  rooms.  And with the fire burning in the  Kang, there was nothing to worry about, Lin Yan laid Su Wan on her bed and covered her with a blanket, only then did he speak " you stay here and rest, I will bring the brown sugar that I just boiled and I will also brew some pain-relieving herbs after that, it might not be much of help but it's better than having nothing"

" you are so nice to me Yan," said Su Wan, she wanted to say more but her cramps were really bad and every time she moved the already heavy flow would flush out even more swiftly making her feel even worse. So in the end she simply laid down on the bed and didn't move an inch, it was just too uncomfortable! 

"If I'm not good to you, who will be I good to? " said Lin Yan as he brushed away strands of hair from Su Wan's forehead " now be good for me and wait here, I will bring the brown sugar water" 

Because Lin Yan was in a hurry, he immediately rushed to the kitchen and poured out the boiling brown sugar water in a bowl. Then he cleaned the crock in which he boiled the brown sugar and then once again set it on the stove but this time the crock contained the pain-relieving herbs that Lin Yan bought from Doctor Gu in advance.  See didn't these herbs come in handy? And his brothers said that he was too fussy! Now, who was the fussy one! Hah! 

Because of his cautious preparations, he can take care of his wife and get closer to her in these seven days! Who was the fool now!
