Fairy Tail: Collapsing Stars-Chapter 771: Starting a new journey
Of course, Mother Lin always had her doubts as well, since she went to see Su Wan with her older sons. The girl she met was timid and did not even know how to raise her head what was more she had a gloomy personality and her eyes were murky, if not for the fact that she needed a wife to marry all her five sons to, she would have never chosen Su Wan but when she saw the Su Wan who married over to her house, the woman was completely different than the one whom she saw which made her almost question if she saw the twin sister of Su Wan, if not for the fact that she did not know that there was no twin sister of Su Wan, she would have definitely suspected that the two exchanged their position.
She however never questioned Su Wan since life at home was peaceful and she did not want to know about it even more now that she had cleared her head, as long as her sons have no problem with Su Wan, she too will have no problems with Su Wan.
Seeing that the two of them had come to a silent conclusion, Su Wan did not say anything anymore instead she told Mother Lin about when they will be leaving and asked her to not unpack anything from her luggage. " We will be setting off on the last day of this week, if there is anything you want to buy, let Ah Jing or anyone buy it for you. You and Father have travelled for so long, you must be tired …take as much rest as you can before we start our journey."
After she was done speaking she left the courtyard when she saw Father Lin walking inside, she greeted her father-in-law and then walked out of the courtyard which was left for her in-law's use.
Father Lin walked up to the stone table where his wife was sitting and then sat down on the stone stool before asking in a soft voice, " Is everything all right?" He was afraid that Su Wan and his wife once again had different opinions but his wife simply rolled her eyes at him and said, " Of course everything is all right do you think that I am that unreasonable?"
" Of course not, I think my wife is the most reasonable woman in the world." Father Lin quickly fawned in front of his wife while Qi Shuyan and the rest who came to see their adoptive parents immediately closed their eyes, when Father Lin turned to look at them, they all shouted,
" We saw nothing!" And then ran away from there.
Father Lin: "….." You did not see anything but you heard everything right?
On the other hand, Su Wan who walked out of the courtyard noticed that her three husbands along with Lin Yan who came rushing inside the house upon getting the word that his mother and father were back looked at Su Wan with an anxious expression, seeing them act like this, Su Wan was so angry that she laughed.
Did they think that she was Godzilla who will eat their mother?
" What are you doing looking at me like that? Are you going to wait for me to finish packing? I have to take care of the house and carry your child as well suffering from mood swings and nausea and now you want me to carry heavy loads as well?" She snapped at the four men who immediately jumped in the air.
" Of course not," seeing that Su Wan was angry Lin Chen did not dare to turn his back on her, he immediately rubbed his hands together and then said, " I was just thinking of going to pack some warm clothes and dry food."
" What are you doing packing such things?" Su Wan placed her hands on her hips and then glared at the four men as if they were useless. " Have you all forgotten that I want you to go and drive the pig that we have raised to a slaughterhouse? Go and sell them before buying some pork, I still need a week to make some dried jerky that way we won't have to worry about meat on the journey."
" But we can always bring seafood with us——-" Lin Chen began but he was cut off by another sharp glare from Su Wan who snorted and then said, " Sure if you want to become the target of the bandits as soon as we step out of the town then you can bring fresh seafood with us!"
When Lin Chen heard Su Wan's words his eyes widened as he turned to look at his brothers who nodded their heads telling him that Su Wan was right even though the conditions in Dong Tong town were not severe they had no idea what was going on outside, it was better to be as low key as possible.
" I understand, I will go and bring the pigs to the slaughterhouse at once," Lin Chen agreed seeing that the lightbulbs were finally turning on in the heads of her husbands, Su Wan harrumphed, it was better if they used their heads into doing something good instead of worrying about useless things.
" All right, make sure to fight for the highest price that the slaughterhouse can go, if possible go to my uncle's slaughterhouse in the next town, it will be troublesome but we will get the sum that we deserve, the pigs are almost eight hundred kilograms, we should get at least two silver taels for them … minus the pork belly." Su Wan explained Lin Chen everything, she was worried that the latter will be fooled if he went to the slaughterhouse of the town.
" Don't worry wife, I will not make a loss!" Lin Chen patted his chest seeing that he was confident, Su Wan let him go with Lin Rui while asking Lin Yan to prepare some biscuits and chilli sauce which could be preserved.
