Chapter 235 - What Can Your Ghost Do?
Realising that it was impossible to borrow grains from the Lin brothers, Old Grandma Lin finally pried her mouth open and said unwilling " okay why don't we do this - we will not borrow the money from you but instead we will buy it, will this do ?"
Buy? They were actually willing to buy? Heh!
Su Wan sneered inwardly but she didn't show it instead she nodded understandably and said "alright, you want one meter of rice right? Then that will be one silver "

" even if I rob you, I won't find that much money in your house," said Su Wan as she rolled her eyes with a casual shrug? " if you think I'm asking for too much money then you can send Uncle to town tomorrow and see for yourself who? will agree to sell one meter of rice for a silver coin to you if you can find it? any cheaper than this I will take my hat off for you "
Old grandmother Lin opened her mouth to curse at Su Wan but Madam Zhang pulled at her sleeves wanting her to stay quiet, she winked at her mother in law meaningfully. Old grandmother Lin was surprised but she wanted to see what Madam Zhang wanted to do and nodded her head.
Madam Zhang smiled politely then rubbing her hands she looked at Su Wan with an expression of an old man trying to fool a young girl " Wan Wan, we didn't bring any money with us when we were coming here. We thought that as we are one family we will be able to borrow the grains from you but no worries if you don't want to lend us, we won't force you either. However, your grandmother and my family haven't eaten anything today - why don't you give me the rice grains first? I will cook some porridge for my family and then send the money with Yunxi? "
Humph, these brats all lived in her family's home ate off their table and yet they wanted to smuggle money from her family? Not a chance!
" Why does it matter to me if you haven't eaten anything ?" asked Su Wan, her face full of scorn. She wasn't the slightest bit surprised that this Madam Zhang was trying to take advantage of their family even when she was starving, she simply shook her head and said " My family is not a family of merchants and I am not a shopkeeper either, there is no way I will let you buy grains on credit. If you don't give me money I won't give you any grains, its simple as that "
Old grandmother Lin couldn't help but stomp her feet as she pointed her finger at Su Wan and yelled furiously " you little slut! You are just trying to talk in circles, aren't you? You are trying to play with me, isn't it! How dare you, I'm your elder and yet you dared to act disrespectful towards me, if I don't teach you a lesson today then My surname won't be Lin anymore !"
" Your surname isn't Lin anyway " deadpanned Lin Yan as he dragged Su Wan behind him and stood in front of her with his arms crossed, he didn't even flinch when Old grandma Lin blew up in anger and started stomping her feet " and you better forget about teaching Wan Wan a lesson with your qualifications you are not even worthy of touching a strand of her hair and if you dare to do so - then heh, you better not regret it later on "

Not only was the little bitch bent on finding trouble with her even her grandsons were rebelling one after another, if she knew this was going to happen then she would have rather broken their legs than let them separate from their family, look only two months have passed and yet these grandsons of hers were already standing against her " you - you bastard you dare to threaten me? What are you going to do huh? Beat me? Hit me? Hah? Then hit! Hit this old lady to see if I don't teach you a lesson !"
" I don't need to hit you for teaching you a lesson " sneered Lin Yan as he stared down at his grandmother contemptuously " but if you dare find trouble with Wan Wan then I will find trouble with your precious little grandson - if you slap my wife once I will slap your grandson twice !"
" Don't you dare to touch my Che 'er! If you find trouble with him I will hang myself right in front of your house " Lin Che was Old grandma Lin's lifeline, she valued her grandson so much that no one was even allowed to talk badly about him much less touch him. The second Lin Yan mentioned that he would find trouble with Lin Che, Both - Old grandma Lin and Madam Zhang flared up like cats on hot tin.
" You do that " sneered Su Wan without even bothering to keep a polite front anymore " at least if you off yourself then we wouldn't have to worry about seeing your unpleasant face every now and then and don't threaten us with how your ghost will come to haunt our family. We are already living in a house that's rumoured to be haunted do you think that we will be scared of your ghost? And even if your ghost comes to haunt us what will it do - count money for us ?"
Old Grandmother Lin face turned livid and she felt even more furious in her heart, she thought that if she were to threaten them with suicide these people would take a step back but with how daring Su Wan was it was like hitting a cotton wall! Ugh so infuriating!
