Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 797: arriving at the capital

  On the other hand, in the capital, Su Bai and the rest were dragging their feet with the support of long sticks in their hands. They all thought that with this shadow guard and Brother Tai in their hands along with the letters which concubine Su sent to them, they will be able to stride inside the capital with complete glory but who would have thought that as soon as they set off trouble came knocking on their door.          

At first, the wheel of Su Bai's carriage broke and he could only share the carriage with Old Madam Lin and the rest but the three members of the Lin family were not easy to deal with, since they had Su Bai and Su Cheng's signed agreement, they made things difficult for them all along the entire journey.      

Su Cheng and Su Lan had to serve Lin Che while Su Bai had to use his hands to serve the disgusting man, Lin Ze. If this was before he would have definitely made a fuss but when Su Bai thought about how he will be able to get both comfort, dignity and riches if he was to arrive at the capital without a hitch which was why even though he had to wash Lin Ze's feet and help him bath, he was willing to do so.      

Even Old Madam Su who was a shrew in front of others reigned on her temper and did not make trouble for her son and calmly served Old Madam Lin along with her daughter-in-law.      

They had thought that they would be able to arrive at the capital safely like this but then they suddenly encountered bandits right before they entered the border of the capital.      

Those bandits took everything that they had in their hands, including the carriage in which they came to the capital. With them stranded in the midst of nowhere to go, the Su and the Lin family could only grit their teeth and head to the capital.      

Fifteen days! They have been begging and doing odd sorts of jobs to arrive at the capital for fifteen days, since they were not used to working they ended up only picking the least tiresome job and were paid in pennies causing their stomach to stick to their back but they all had the same thought, as long as they reached the capital, they will be able to get as much food and water.      

In the beginning, they all were scolding Su Wan and her husbands for making things troublesome for them but then slowly and gradually that resentment turned into two different halves. Lin Ze hated Tai Zheng for not giving him, his share of money. If that man had given him the money then he would have surely stayed in comfort in his village and would not have come up with the rotten idea of coming to the capital.      

As his resentment grew he bullied Tai Zheng and the shadow guard until they could no longer take it. In fact, if the shadow guard could have run away at any moment but every time he tried to run away someone would catch him and then dump him in the carriage of the Lin family, slowly, he stopped running.      

This shadow guard was none other than the one who was commanding Han Li and her husband behind the scenes, after Lin Chen and Lin Yu caught hold of him, they handed him to Lin Ze asking him to bring him to the capital, saying that he will help them.      

Now the shadow guard did not dare to make a move against the Lin family on the other hand, he was quite honest!      

On the other hand, Su Bai continued to blame his daughter, Su Wan. It was clear that she was now the famous imperial concubine Su of the imperial family by the stroke of her luck but instead of supporting him, her old father. She was having fun on her own!      

The more he suffered the more he got angry, how he wished he could warm his hand on the face of that bitch who ran away after thinking that he will not be able to catch her. Did she think that just because she changed her skin she will not get caught? Haha. He was her father even if she changes her entire name and identity, he will still catch her!      

In the past few days, he had suffered so much that he no longer cared about the fact that his daughter was an imperial concubine now. All he cared about was that she was someone who had betrayed him and deserved to be taught a good lesson!      

The entire group was so hungry that they all felt like they were going to faint especially Old Madam Lin and Old Madam Su. They scolded that imperial concubine Su until their mouths developed ulcers, this was even more so in the case of Old Madam Su who knew that this imperial concubine Su was none other than her granddaughter.      

If she was standing in front of her, Old Madam Su would have clawed her face until nothing was left! What imperial concubine Su?! She was just a fake vase!      

As they arrived at the capital, Su Bai noticed the guards. He knew that without a road guide and instructions, he will not be able to go inside which was why he turned to look at Lin Ze who nodded and then untied the shadow guard who wanted to escape but just as he stood up, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his calf and could not get up instead he looked at Lin Ze who was crouching down in front of him and heard the man say, " You know what to do right?"      

The shadow guard wanted to refuse but he then heard Su Bai say, " Tell that imperial concubine Su that I, Su Bai is here and I have something that belongs to her. If she does not want to be burned alive, she better come out and bring us inside with glory or else, I will make sure that she dies with a stamp of a witch on her head."
