Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 113 - Hard To Satisfy

However , Lin Rui was afraid to trigger his third brother's temper which was already under stress because of hunger and whatever that happened between him and Lin Yu , so Lin Rui didn't say anything , instead he simply focused on eating his breakfast , its perfectly flaky crispness that had absorbed the curry flavor of the filling was just simply delightful . Lin Rui couldn't help but wonder from where exactly Su Wan got all these novel ideas, the dishes that she came up with till now were unique and tastes really different from all the dishes that he had seen or eaten .

Take for example this beef curry puffs , Lin Rui was sure this was something that wasn't even sold in the capital !

In the end Lin Rui wasn't someone who would ever think of things like soul exchanging after death , instead he simply came to a rather easier conclusion that maybe his wife was always full of ideas and she was a rare genius in terms of cooking ,- this conclusion was rather easier to digest after all .

He was really happy thinking that his wife was so talented and smart but at the same time he couldn't help but feel pressured as his wife was so good , he had to bring more glory to their home and village . Lin Rui had an inkling that even though Su Wan was still not that well known , with his wife's incredible ideas , her talent won't be hidden for long - and if he didn't pick up his slack soon and started walking side by side with her , he might lose her forever .

Lin Rui looked at Su Wan who was happily munching on her beef curry puff like a little hamster , and felt reluctant , he didn't want to be left out !

No , he will work harder from now on - even harder to become a scholar first and then an official , he didn't want his brother or any one else to whisk Su Wan away from him- wait , a second !

Lin Rui was shocked at his own thoughts , what did he meant by didn't want his brothers to whisk her away from him ? Su Wan was their shared wife ! His brothers had as much right over Su Wan as he did , what in the world was wrong with him - it was natural that Lin Rui had to share his wife with his brothers but - he hesitated then looked up at his brothers who were having their breakfast.

Their mother who was sitting at the head of the table was talking with his eldest brother Lin Jing who was listening to their mother jabber but at the same time his gaze would occasionally drift over to Su Wan and his eldest brother who never smiled , actually had a curve decorating his lips , while his second brother was looking at Su Wan , he would occasionally bicker with her - regarding something stupid , Su Wan will every time roll her eyes at him and retort in a nasty way with her mouth puffed with puffs , his second brother would sneer every time at her but Lin Rui could she that his second brother actually had a doting expression on his face every time Su Wan scolded him - what was this a spectacle of Masochism ? But then again his second brother usually never talked with the fairer gender before .

His third brother would call out to Su Wan in middle of inhaling his food and would praise her , even though Su Wan would roll her eyes at him - Lin Rui knew that his Third brother was successful in pleasing her , as for Lin Yu - this younger brother of his didn't even need to do anything , he was just sitting beside Su Wan and making himself look pitiful and loveable - Lin Rui never paid attention to Lin Yu 's act before but now as he watched Su Wan smiling and dotingly piling Lin Yu 's bowl with the vegetable porridge that his second brother cooked - Lin Rui had a sick suspicion that his fifth brother was actually doing all of this deliberately .

All in all , all of his brother's were doing something to get Su Wan's attention - it was him alone who was sitting like an outsider .

All of a sudden Lin Rui felt like the taste of the puffs were gone and he was chewing on dry paper . Before this he never thought that his calm and silent personal was wrong , but now he understood that his calm personality might really drag him down . Among the five brothers , Su Wan's interaction was the least with him , even his eldest brother somehow got along with Su Wan and was spending more time with her - even his third brother who was considered as a fool could sneak a moment of happiness here and there , Second brother could bicker and flirt at the same time , Lin Yu was already Su Wan's focus of attention - then where was he ?

The more Lin Rui thought the more upset he got , if this goes on - he will be the only one who will be least liked by Su Wan among his brothers .

" Wan Wan .. the puffs are really delicious " after hesitating a bit , Lin Rui smiled gently " I haven't tasted anything like this before "

Su Wan who was ladling some porridge for Lin Chen , was stunned at Lin Rui's sudden praise . Ever since the day before , Lin Rui had been staying clear of her like he was too embarrassed too meet her gaze after the kiss , so him praising her out of the blue was really shocking , but Su Wan was used to the brothers changing their faces by now , so she smiled and picked up a puff and placed it in Lin Rui 's bowl " here you go , if you like it eat more don't be shy ". Even though Su Wan was a little hurt at Lin Rui 's act of avoiding her gaze , she knew he had a thin skin ( lol ) so she didn't bother keeping this small little grudge chained .
