Chapter 782 Selling the meat ——-2
The innkeeper was startled when he realised that Su Wan knew about his actions. He did not think that the woman was this sharp if she was alone then—— just as he was about to think something, he noticed a glare pointed at him and his thoughts come to a sudden halt as he slowly turned his head to look at Lin Chen who was glaring at him.
" I …I will go and call the town"s people!" The innkeeper did not dare to touch this woman whose husbands were taller than him and his brother-in-law but at the same time, he was livid, so much money and all of it went flying away from his hands!
But the innkeeper only had limited guts, he dared to scold Su Wan in his head but still did not dare to refute her. He was afraid that she will retaliate stronger than the move which he could make against her!
" Wan Wan, that innkeeper does not look like a simple man," just now Lin Chen saw that the innkeeper was glaring at his wife like he wanted to harm her, he only stopped when he glared at him, warning him to not do something that he was not supposed to do.
" I know but he will not dare to do anything to me or our family, he is a literal example of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, so he will stay put in front of us." Su Wan knew that the innkeeper could bully the people of the town because his brother in law will hold a grudge against the people who went against the innkeeper but he will not go against them since they were not going to stay in this town for long and even if he did try to go against them, it needed to be seen who will bully whom!
As she spoke she turned to look at Lin Chen and asked, " Did you take care of the other matter? We cannot make a mistake."
Lin Zi had sent a letter with the guard that Lin Zhe had finally sold the land and house which was under his name, though Old Madam Lin made a lot of fuss in front of Lin Zhi and asked her to buy the house as soon as Su Wan and the rest left.
Su Wan thought that the Old Lin family had gone to the capital who would have thought that they were smarter than she gave them credit, they did not go to the capital instead they hid in the village next to the Dong Tong village and then came out of their hiding hole as soon as Su Wan left the town demanding Lin Zi to buy their house and lands.
The reason was simple, though they were sure that the plan will work, they still wanted to have a backup plan. In case they sold their house to outsiders they will not be able to get it back but as long as Lin Zi was the one who was the owner, they could always get it back on the pretext of making her unfilial.
Fortunately, Su Wan was prepared for this matter as well and taught Lin Zi well, the latter did not budge no matter what kind of scene Old Madam Lin made, instead, she simply said to Old Madam Lin that if she dared to make matter worse for her, then she will go to the yamen in the capital with her and beat the drum announcing to the world that she sold her daughter to an old official.
She further went on to say that, unlike Old Madam Lin"s broken carriage, her carriage was much faster and smoother, she will reach the capital before Old Madam Lin can, asking her whether she truly wanted to push her to a corner.
Old Madam Lin was looking forward to enjoying a comfortable life, how could she allow Lin Zi to make such an announcement? She could only curse Lin Zi and Madam Zhang for having no heart.
Lin Zi told Su Wan that there was nothing to worry about but Su Wan was rather annoyed with Old Madam Lin, she had already given a way out to the Lin family to live a proper life but they still wanted to make things difficult for her then they cannot blame her for being ruthless!
" You do not have to worry about anything wife, I am sure that those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds will arrive at the capital penniless." In the beginning, Lin Chen only wanted to take what belonged to him and his brother but now—— no matter what it was, as long as it was of any value, it will taken away!
Su Wan nodded her head just as the innkeeper returned with the people of the town, they all looked at the snake meat and smacked their lips, even though they lived near mountains, there were not a lot of animals which could be hunted, in the past they all believed that it was because of the hot geysers which were found in the mountains and were really dangerous given that they could roast a person in matter of seconds.
The last time a person stumbled into the geyser when it exploded, he came out with severe burns!
But who would have thought that the reason they could not find an animal in the mountain was because of this overly large python?
Su Wan looked at the people of the town and then calmly said, " You all can see that the python is rather big right? This was hunted by my husbands, and they almost exchanged their lives for it …
which is why you will have to understand my predicament, I am not giving this meat for free but my price is reasonable, three copper coins a catty, what do you say?"
When the innkeeper heard that the price was this low, his eyes widened and then turned to look at Su Wan with his mouth agape, he wanted to say why she was so unfair but the woman was a step ahead of him.
She narrowed her eyes and then looked at him with a smile which was not a smile, " This pricing is something that I have learned from innkeeper An, make sure to thank him."
Innkeeper: What a poisonous woman.
