" oh, no Eldest Uncle, it's fine. I don't need a new cloak" said Su Wan though she was happy with all the love and attention her eldest Uncle and Aunt were showing her, this cloak was something really close to her heart" Ah Yu was the one who sewed this one for me and Jing Ge hunted three foxes so that I can have a warm cloak in winter, and I really like it"
Lin Jing didn't hunt for himself or his brothers but his first thought was about her, because he wanted the softest fur for her, he stayed in the forest for three nights and hunted those foxes for their furs. And Lin Yu didn't think about designing any other clothing before sewing this cloak for her, the first thing that Lin Yu made with his hands was this cloak that he gave her, to Su Wan this cloak was not just a piece of clothing but something of great significance, it expressed the love of her husbands.
Shen Junxi who got refused was really unhappy, the cloak that he found unsightly became a thorn in his eyes, so his niece will accept the cloak from these brats but won't take the one that he wanted to give her? Why because he wasn't as close to her as these little brats? Shen Junxi was upset but before he could say anything, Madam Zhu placed her hand on the back of his hand and smiled at Su Wan with an understanding smile " I completely get you, something that's woven with love can never be compared to something that can be bought. Isn't that right, husband ?"
Shen Junxi wanted to say ' heck, yes, it can be! What's so good about so cheap and tacky? When I can bring her the best of the world' but then his gaze fell on the fan that Madam Zhu was holding in her hands and swallowed all his words down back again, because the fan, was not just a fan. It was Madam Zhu's most cherished fan when the two didn't get married, Shen Junxi had given this fan as his first gift to match with Madam Zhu, it wasn't expensive but it had a classiness about it, and though it looked cheap to Shen Junxi now, at that time it cost him his entire months savings. Because Madam Zhu wasn't willing to accept the money or gift that he earned while being a hooligan, Shen Junxi had to work on the docks and take many menial jobs to earn a decent sum of money before he could purchase this fan.𝐟𝙧ℯe𝙬𝚎𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵel. 𝐜o𝓶
And ever since Madam Zhu has cherished it with all her heart. No matter how many gifts he gave to her later on, they couldn't compete with this fan at all. Shen Junxi couldn't understand why Madam Zhu liked it so much but he still knew that she didn't like anyone talking bad about the fan, so he didn't dare to contradict her and agreed with her ( of course he wasn't willing to bet on his life for some cloaks and fans) " your aunt is right if it's something that these br- husbands of yours gave you, of course, it's more precious than the ones I will bring for you but still - it's better if you have more options, for girls, there is no such thing as ' too many clothes ' you can have a few more options to select from and if you keep wearing the same one it's highly possible that it might wear down after a few years, if you wear different cloaks and cherish it well you might be able to keep this cloak for a little longer " even though I wish, it burns and rot in hell!
Su Wan didn't know what was going on her Uncle's mind nor did she know that he was currently cursing her cherished cloak. Seeing that he agreed with her, and didn't talk badly about her husbands anymore, she didn't want to reject his goodwill anymore, she smiled and took a step back " alright If that's what Eldest Uncle wants"
Only when she agreed did Shen Junxi heave a sigh of relief, even Madam Zhu smiled. Compared to Shen Junxi she could understand Su Wan better, so she deliberately stopped her husband and hinted at him. She was afraid that if he kept talking bad about Su Wan's husbands, he might offend Su Wan.
So, she timely put a stop on her bumbling husband's stupidity.
The rest of the dinner passed normally or as normally as it could have gone. The Lin brothers who suddenly have this big barrier that was separating them from their Wife clung to Su Wan as much as possible. The clingiest of the lot - Lin Chen kept putting food in Su Wan's bowl which of course was snatched by Shen Junxi before she could take a bite of it.? The entire scenario was something like this - five weasels, one of them especially enthusiastic were trying to snatch the golden egg of the chicken. But the big burly chicken was desperately hiding his golden egg in his wings not letting them have any chance to so much as get close to the egg.
Su Wan who was supposedly the golden egg felt really helpless, it was like she was sandwiched between a German Shepherd and five Chihuahuas.
Because of these small scuffles, everyone are so much that they almost got a heartburn, from overeating. And Su Wan whose tummy was already uncomfortable needed someone to help her walk back to her room,? Lin Chen, who was desperate enough to steal a kiss from Su Wan, was the first to jump on his feet but he was stopped by Shen Junxi who timely intervened and sent Madam Zhu to? take Su Wan back.
The Qi siblings who had been silent throughout the meal suddenly felt a bit sorry for their elder brothers, they had a wife but they couldn't even talk to her, how pitiful.
Father Lin exchanged a glance with his wife when he peeked out of his room and saw what was happening in the dining room" don't you think that Wan Wan's eldest Uncle is being too hard on our sons?"
Mother Lin who looked up from the sweater that she was knitting and peered through the window as well before she shrugged and said " I wish I had an uncle like this too, I think you married me a bit too easily or else you would have cherished me more"
Father Lin "...." F*ck!
