Shrewd Wife Of Lin Brothers

Chapter 961: Rejection and objection

Madam Han opened the door of the house that was given to her, and what she saw was a large yard behind the house, followed by a swing. And a vegetable patch that was left alone for them to grow some vegetables of their own. The patch was now covered with weeds as the courtyard was not open for the others to use.

Lin Yan was the one who was accompanying them as Su Wan went to look at the construction of the mermaid aquarium. He explained the layout of the house to the Han family, "Master Han, forgive me. I know that the courtyard is a bit cramped but this is the only side courtyard that is open to use."

The biggest courtyard was taken over by Fei Qinfan while the other was given to Old Madam Shen and Shen Junxi. Their parents stayed in the courtyard next to the main building where the Qi family children lived together with them.

This was the only courtyard that was left for the Han family to use.

When Han Fu heard Lin Yan's words, he smiled and shook his head. He said to him, "No, this is good enough for us Master Yan. We have been living in a small house that did not even have space for us to place our things without them almost falling over. For us, this house is not only decent but incredibly well maintained."

Compared to the house that the landlord gave to them, this house was indeed very clean. The house in which they lived, the landlord did not even take a look at it for years. Thus, the house was not only filled with dust and spider webs it was really hard to clean with all the muck covering the floor.

They had to spend three days to clean the house. When Han Fu compared that house to the courtyard that Lin Yan and the rest of the Song family had given to them, he felt the kindness and respect that the Lin family had towards his family.

Even the vegetable garden seemed to have traces of cleaning but because it was a bit big, the entire patch was not cleared up.

Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief. He handed Han Fu a gunny bag and then said, "These are some vegetable seeds, my wife has left in charge to explain how the soilless farming works. Once you have gotten the gist of it, she expects you to experiment with these seeds. In case you succeed in growing these seeds then we will move on to bigger fields.

By the way," he walked to the bathing house and pushed the door open. "I will explain how to use these, these were designed by my wife and my elder brother was the one who made them. It's quite a new concept here thus not many know how to use a water tank to clean and bath."

Even Lin Yan who was quite used to seeing Su Wan making novel things was shocked after seeing this, thus when Han Fu and the rest of the Han family were taught how to use the shower system along with the flushing one, they were quite shocked.

What was more the cleaning house was much better than the thatched hut that smelled all the time. Han Jie who felt like her nose hair getting burned by the stinky odor at her previous house was so happy that she was about to cry.

Han Yijin on the other hand was amused by the shower head. It was a simple thing but as soon as Han Yijin turned the latch on the shower to the other side, the water fell on his head and the floor like a rain shower.

"This is so cool!" Han Yijin remarked.

Even Master Han and Madam Han were stunned by seeing these novel things, their eyes were shining brightly as if a new world had been opened to them.

Lin Yan also felt proud when he saw that an official was reacting like this after seeing the designs that his wife came up with. He curled his lips to a side and then said to Han Fu, "The house is refurnished by my wife, each of the things that is present in your house is chosen and designed by my wife. If you don't like something then you can buy another one for yourself.

There is no need for you to keep using the ones that my wife placed inside the house and there is no need to hesitate either."

As soon as Lin Yan spoke, everyone turned to look at the furniture that was placed inside the courtyard and their eyes widened. Especially Han Yijin as he could see the four poster beds that were placed inside the main room while the other room had an efficient bed that was built inside the wall.

When one wanted to sleep they could de-attach the bed from the wall and then sleep on it, similarly if someone wanted space in the room, they could re-attach the bed in the wall once again.

There was also a study table and chair in both of the rooms.

When Han Jie saw this, her eyes widened and then she questioned, "Why is there a study table in my room? I don't think that I will need it." A woman was not allowed to study this was something that her mother told her when she was young. Even her grandmother told her that a woman's illiteracy was a virtue.

"Haha, you will certainly use it," Lin Yan said to Han Jie whose face was filled with confusion. He said to her, "My wife is opening a school which will allow both women and men to study. As you are a part of our team who will be working for my wife, getting educated is the most important thing. If you cannot read then you will not be accepted."

"I … I can read?" Han Jie asked with her eyes widening even more.

"What nonsense is this?" Han Yijin stated with a frown on his face. "How can you allow a woman to read and learn? Ever since this country was established only men were given the right to study. Women are supposed to stay inside the house and work for their families, if they leave they start learning what will happen to the households.

Who will take care of children and who will take care of the meals of the men?"

Han Jie lowered her head and bit her lower lip. That was right, if she was to study then who would take care of her children and family? No matter what a woman was destined to get married in the end, so what was the point of learning?

Han Yijin disliked the fact that his family was giving so much importance to that woman thus he deliberately lowered the status of women to bring down Su Wan.

Indirectly he was telling Lin Yan that Su Wan was a bad wife and mother as she did not pay attention to her children and husbands despite being a shared wife.

"Han Yijin!" Han Fu scolded his son who stopped speaking but he still held an arrogant expression of not being wrong. Seeing him act like this Han Fu and his wife were simply speechless, what did they do wrong with this boy? Could he not see that they were living under Su Wan's roof, how could he act disrespectfully towards Su Wan? What if Lin Yan was offended by his words?

Lin Yan did not seem to be offended instead he smiled and then stated, "My wife was the one who built the Snack Street all on her own, which means that she raised the economy of this city on her own. Can you do it? No, if you could have done the same thing then my wife wouldn't have to come here."

Han Yijin: …..

Lin Yan then walked out of the house as he motioned the Han Family to follow him. The five of them walked past the side courtyards and then headed straight to the main courtyard where Lin Yan pointed at the vegetables that were growing without soil.

"And these too. My wife was able to grow these after countless experiments with the seeds of vegetables. Do you think that you can do the same? Then there is no need for me to explain how these vegetables are supposed to be grown. You can do it on your own?"

Han Yijin: …..

Because of his arrogance, Han Yijin wanted to say that he could do it but before he could agree, his father walked past him in a hurry. Han Fu held the vegetable plants that were growing in water, his eyes were shining brightly as he remarked, "That boy can't even grow vegetables in soil, how can he grow them in water alone?

By the way Master Yan, how do you manage to stop the roots of this plant from rotting?"

Han Yijin: ….who will rob me when the bulgar is in my house himself!
