Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 324 - Great Aunt Is Finally Here

Lin Yan felt the presence of someone behind him and turned around, to his surprise it was Su Wan but instead of looking at him, she was looking outside the window. Frowning, Lin Yan followed her gaze wanting to see what was more attractive than him, but all he saw was smoky clouds with mist swirling in the sky, what was there to see?

" what are you looking at? " after a while Lin Yan couldn't help but ask " Is there something outside?"

" Nothing, I am just trying to check whether the sun rose from the west today" said Su Wan as she peered through the window " I mean, you are cooking shredded chicken porridge with white rice without me harping on your head, it's really surprising"

Only then did Lin Yan realise that this naughty wife was actually pulling his legs, poking her forehead he shook his head with an indulgent sigh " for whom do you think I am doing this for? And I only acted miserly because we were really poor back then, now the income is more or less stabilised, we can at least eat white rice and chicken without worrying about blowing a hole in our budget, so there is nothing wrong"

Su Wan poked her tongue out childishly, she knew that the reason Lin Yan was making so many meat dishes these days were because of her. Because her period was still not here, Lin Yan wanted to feed her until she was plump and healthy.? Su Wan wished to tell him that year's of malnutrition couldn't be dealt with so easily but the latter was adamant and she didn't want to rain on his parade.

" I know, I know, I was just joking," said Su Wan before turning to tackle the rabbit meat, the rabbit that Lu Lin gave them was really plump and would be enough for their family, though they couldn't eat it to fill their stomach, But with Lin Yan's porridge it was just right.

She then took out a large pan that Lin Yan brought from the town, their old pan was broken and chapped sometimes giving a metallic taste to the dishes so Su Wan demanded Lin Yan buy a new pan. It was a long and tiring battle but she still won it!

Placing the pan on the stove that was mildly burning, she cooked the rabbit in a generous amount of oil before sauteing it until it was brown. When did the Lin family use so much oil before? But still, Lin Yan said nothing and let Su Wan do her thing, he knew she was the boss in both the kitchen and at home, he would never win against her even if he rebelled with his four brothers together. So he didn't utter a peep and simply waited next to her in case she needed his help.

" chop some onions " while sauteing the rabbit, Su Wan asked Lin Yan to chop onions, ginger? and bring some thyme, bay leaf and pepper.

Lin Yan has gotten accustomed to helping Su Wan in the kitchen, his speed to chop things was really good. Just as Su Wan took out the golden brown rabbit from the pan, Lin Yan added the onion and sauteed them until they turned tender, only after that did he add the ginger.

Su Wan on the other hand added the thyme, bay leaf and pepper before adding water and making a broth. After she finished doing this, she stirred the broth and added the already cooked rabbit in it.

All she needed to do was to serve it after it was cooked and it wouldn't take much time, that's what Su Wan thought buy as she busied herself in the kitchen, suddenly she felt a tug in her stomach. Then the small tug became a sharp stabbing pain, that she was familiar with- this... Wasn't this her great aunt knocking on her door!

Surprised, Su Wan dumped the ladle she was using to stir the broth and rushed outside. Lin Yan who was standing next to her waiting for her next order was startled at her sudden action, seeing her rush out, he immediately place the lid on the pan and removed some firewood to lower the flame in the stoves to avoid the rabbit meat from getting burned.

After that, he rushed after Su Wan, who has locked herself in the outhouse while clutching her tummy.

Su Wan squatted down and sure enough, she saw drops of blood trickling down. Her stomach was churning really badly, now that she got her first period. Her periods in her previous life were really mild, she never went through such bloody cramps that completely messed up her entire lower body.

At first, she couldn't understand the heavy flow and painful cramps but then she remembered that the previous owner often washed the Su family's clothes in winter, with cold river water. That Chu Yanyu was really stingy with firewood and won't let the original owner boil water to wash clothes, saying that it wasn't so cold as to use hot water.

That Chu Yanyu! She knew that a teenage girl, Su Wan should have paid special attention to her health and shouldn't have eaten anything cold or much less wash clothes in cold water, or else chances were her womb might turn cold and she might suffer from Dysmenorrhea! If Su Wan wasn't wrong, now her womb must have gone cold after spending so many winters washing clothes in the chilly water of the river That's why her period was so painful!

And there wasn't even ibuprofen here! What the hell! Was she going to die because of period cramps? ( yes it hurts that bad )

" Wan Wan? Wan Wan are you alright?" Lin Yan who rushed after her, was really worried. He knew that if Su Wan dashed to the outhouse so quickly something serious must have happened, so he hurried after her, knocking on the door of the outhouse as he questioned her.

" it's nothing, my, my that is here" Su Wan who was feeling dizzier by the second, answered him softly. She had no time to waste, if she couldn't get out of here maybe she will find right here and now " Yan, hurry and get me a pad, if possible go and boil some brown sugar if we don't have brown sugar buy it, and if you can't buy it, borrow it! But please boil it... I feel really bad "

" no I stocked some brown sugar, don't worry," said Lin Yan, because he was preparing for Su Wan's period, not only did he bring a lot of brown sugar, he even sewed some emergency pads. So, right now he had no trouble in taking care of Su Wan, he ran inside his room first took out one of the menstrual pads that he sewed with cotton and coal ash, then ran to the kitchen where he removed the rabbit meat that was stewing and placed a crock filled with water and brown sugar.

As he looked at the half-cooked rabbit meat, Lin Yan thought that maybe it was time to build another stove.

But now was not the time to think about this! Once he put the brown sugar on the stove to boil it, he once again ran to the outhouse where he knocked on the door for he wanted to hand Su Wan the pad "? hurry, take it then come out quickly, don't stay inside when it's so cold, alright ?"

Lin Yan was like a mother hen who not only told Su Wan how to tie the pad but also guided her on what and what not to do.

Thanks to his nervous rambling that he learned after taking care of two younger sisters, Su Wan understood what to do with the many strings pad that Lin Yan handed her and swiftly started to tie it around her waist.

" oi! Second brother, what are doing here?" Lin Chen, who just returned after delivering the green vegetables to Lu Lin, saw Lin Yan standing in front of the outhouse, while he was walking towards the bathhouse to clean himself " is someone inside? That's why you are waiting? "

"Don't be stupid, I'm not waiting - Su Wan she grew up. So I'm taking care of her" Lin Yan was only doting towards Su Wan, to others he was still the same strict and waspish.

" what do you mean she grew up?" wasn't she already grown up after sleeping with their eldest brother? Lin Chen couldn't understand or more like because he was so excited about consummating his wedding night, he didn't want to accept it psychologically.

" I mean she got her period" snapped Lin Yan, looking at Lin Chen like he was looking at an idiot who couldn't understand how one plus one equals to two.

" she got her what ?"

" her period" Lin Yan's brows scrunched up in annoyance but he didn't look away from the outhouse door. He couldn't let Su Wan to come in contact with cold, so he was waiting for her to come out, so that he could pick her up and bring her back to her room but then - suddenly something fell on the ground with a ' thud' and then -

" NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
