BXBX NOVEL Chapter 465 - Driven Mad
Lin Rui smiled when he saw that Su Wan was smiling and waving at him, he nodded and strode towards her, what he wanted was to take Wan Wan in his arms but since he knew it wouldn\'t be appropriate with everyone present her so he simply rubbed her head with an endless amount of love in his eyes " En, the teacher let me come back. I and some other students were selected to go with the teacher to the prefectural city to attend a lecture of a famous scholar. It will take a few weeks for us to return, so Headmaster allowed us to stay at home until the date of departure"
Lin Rui wanted to return home more often but he took a lot of holidays because of Lin Yan\'s matter and couldn\'t do anything except stay at the academy and study to make up for all the classes he had missed. The academy was really strict if you miss one of the classes then you can\'t return home until you finish up learning everything that has been taught in the class. And because Lin Rui missed one class after another, he was left behind. In the end, he had to buck it up and finish everything until he caught up on what he has missed in the classes of course the headmaster has a lot of expectations from him so he couldn\'t just laze around.
In the end, the situation became like this where he couldn\'t return home at all on weekends but all that hard work that he put into his studies didn\'t go to waste either seeing him work so hard, his teacher and mentor chose him as one of the students to accompany him to the prefectural city. And what was more Lin Rui was the only junior who was selected, everyone else who were accompanying the teacher were his seniors!
Su Wan who listened to Lin Rui\'s accomplishments felt like all the money that she spent on his education didn\'t go in vain. Her husband didn\'t become a spoiled brat like others who would lose every sense of responsibility once they went to the town and starts receiving money from their family for doing absolutely nothing. They would goof around every day but her husband was different! He worked hard and didn\'t let anyone down, so she squirmed out of Lin Chen\'s hold and immediately hopped down on the ground and tugged Lin Rui\'s arm " Let\'s go, Ah Rui.. you seem to have gotten a bit thinner after working so hard. I will make some delicious food for you"
Because Su Wan hadn\'t seen Lin Rui for a very long time, her gaze was filled with him alone. She didn\'t even look at her husbands who had all turned sullen one after the another.
Very well one rival was kicked out and then the other one popped up…. And they couldn\'t even do anything to this one as he had just as much right on Su Wan as they did, nonetheless, though they felt jealous over Lin Rui getting all of Su Wan\'s attention, they also felt really proud of their little brother, among them only Lin Rui got the opportunity to study and he didn\'t let them down! They were so happy that they immediately grinned and Lin Chen immediately went out to boast to his friends- going to the prefectural city to attend a famous scholar\'s lecture.. how good was that!
If his brother keeps this up, then next year when he takes the prefectural county exam he will become a big official! Hehe!
The Lin brothers and Su Wan were happy even Shen Junxi and Shen Zizhen were impressed by Lin Rui. Though the two were successful businessmen, they knew a few crude words and only went to school for the first seven years before they dropped one after another, only their third brother studied medicine under the famous doctor of the town before moving to the capital.
Shen Zizhen and Shen Junxi were impressed but there was someone who wasn\'t, Zhang Xiaohui who heard the matter from the gossip grapevine of the village women was so angry that her entire complexion had turned red. Ever since her sister in law took charge of the house, she had to do a lot of work from washing the laundry to cleaning the house everything was dropped on her head, at first Zhang Xiaohui was a vain, selfish woman who didn\'t know the truth of the society but as she worked with her sister in law, she realized that it wasn\'t easy for two women to survive in the society, when they went to sell their grains the shopkeeper deliberately gave them a less price, if not her sister in law who was apt with the art of counterattacking and leaving the other party completely speechless then they wouldn\'t have been able to sell the grains at a decent price.
The more time Zhang Xiaohui spent with her sister in law, the more she realized how wrong she was to take her nephews for granted and just how useless her husband was but there were no pills of regret, she could only honestly work with her sister in law even if she didn\'t want to because a hungry stomach cannot be filled by sitting at home all day. At first, she had been in denial, then lost in her jealousy but now she has slowly accepted the reality, and because she has accepted her reality... Zhang Xiaohui was no longer the chubby, shrewish woman - no, her body has lost an entire circle after working so hard!
Zhang Xiaohui somehow learned to work hard but her husband and children- at the thought of her good for nothing husband and her lazy daughter and son, Zhang Xioahui had a headache. She tried to teach them how to be a good person but the children\'s personalities were set there was nothing she could do, so in the end, she could only try to be patient with them but now that she heard that Lin Rui was selected in the group of students who will be accompanying their teacher to the prefectural city to listen to the lecture of the top scholar, she felt like she gave birth to an idiot!
" What are you doing!" As soon as she entered the house, she saw her sister in law standing in front of her husband and children with a huge pot in her hands, her expression livid.
Zhang Xiaohui\'s eyes turned as she hurried over and took the pot from her sister in law, and just as the disappointment settled in, she turned to look at her lazy husband and children " you all finished the entire pot of rice in just one day? I just refilled it yesterday!"
