Chapter 127 - Calling His Bluff
Actually Su Wan knew that Lin Jing was good with his hands , she had seen the table legs and it's craftsmanship , even though Lin Jing alone was working on it , he had done an excellent job on the table. After spending some time with the brothers , she now understood that each brother had a different talent and skills . For example , Lin Yan , he was a smart businessman and had a flare for cooking , Lin Yu was skilled in embroidery and Lin Rui was a wise scholar - just like that Lin? Jing was really good in wood carvings .
As for Lin Chen , he was such a free minded soul that Su Wan couldn't grasp his talents and skill yet . Though she knew that he can be smart when he wanted to , but he usually never showed his smartness which made Su Wan wonder whether Lin Chen really was as childish as he acted or he was just pretending .

Lin Chen who was standing a little far away from Su Wan felt a chill down on his spine , what was this ? Who was scheming behind his back - Lin Chen who was hiding his true potential never thought that his wife ,Su Wan was this close to calling off his bluff .
His eyes flashed and he looked around , a trace of seriousness flashing in those black orbs , vanishing the laughter that Su Wan always saw in them . Lin Yu who was standing beside Lin Chen , arched an eyebrow then smiled and goaded Lin Chen " be c..careful bro..brother , your rea..real self is making an app..appearance "
Lin Chen 's face flushed , glaring he sneered at Lin Yu " you better care about yourself , instead of me " then he stalked away from Lin Yu , not bothering to even keep the pretences that the two of them were not fighting currently . Lin Yu saw his brother's flushed face and angry expression and hardly suppressed a chuckle , Ah , looks like dealing with his third brother would be easy - as for the others .
His gaze drifted over to his eldest brother who was smiling at Su Wan while his eyes were filled with love and doting , even though his third brother was stupid enough to not notice what happened between their eldest brother and Su Wan , Lin Yu who had been keeping eye on Su Wan from the moment she entered the house knew that something was off about his eldest brother.? Though their eldest brother's smile was no different from the usual ones but Lin Yu could detect the healthy hint of lust in that smile of his brother's today , and that told Lin Yu whatever he wanted to know .
Lin Yu had never seen such a happy smile on his brother's face for years , and it was only now did he realised how much he missed this smile of his big brother , though Lin Yan very much wanted to trap Su Wan in his cage and keep her all to himself , he knew he had to learn how to share and love her just as his brothers did - even though he hated the idea of sharing her , he wasn't selfish enough to hurt his brothers when they had done so much for him . In the end , Lin Yu suppressed his anger and jealousy and put forth his angel like smile .

Su Wan had no idea that Lin Yu was still planning and scheming about his next step to make her fall deeper in his trap .
Instead she took her flowers and went inside the kitchen , generally infused oils were made by soaking herbs in a particular type of oil to extract the active compounds but the thing here was , that if Su Wan had calendula then it might be able to infuse in oil very well but when it came to flowers like lavender and roses , Su Wan was a bit sceptical about it .
So instead of infusing them , Su Wan decided to steam distill these flowers. So , she took the flowers and removed their petals in separate bowls before taking a clay pot from the kitchen utensils she first took some rose petals and started boiling it . Since , the water here was really clean , Su Wan hope that she will be to extract? essential oils with this water without distilling it . Then once the water started boiling she put the lid of the clay pot upside down , her friend told her that by doing so the steam that rises from the water will condense and fall back into the pot .
Once the water was simmered for half an hour at high flame , Su Wan lowered the flame and left the water to boil at a low flame for two to three hours . Then she went outside? and left her house with a bucket in hand from the back door , because it was winter the water of the river was really chilled and the villagers rarely bathed in it . Su Wan filled the icy cool water in the bucket and went back inside the house , because their house was just in front of the river , Su Wan went out and came back in a jiffy no one noticed her leaving . Once she was back she poured the cool water in a vat and continued to do so until the vat was completely filled .
Only after pouring the last bucket of water , Su Wan closed the back door and went inside the kitchen , she checked the water with rose petals , after checking it she was more or less satisfied so she removed the water from the clay pot and emptied into a bowl before covering it with lid and placing it in the cool water inside the vat . If everything went right , then there will be a thin layer of oil forming? on the top of the? water after freezing till next morning and Su Wan will be able to extract the oil from it .
Su Wan hoped that her method of extracting the oil goes alright .
