187 The Cunning Brother-In-Law


    Su Binn said smilingly, “Okay, I can’t argue with that.”


    Old Madam Su patted her granddaughter’s hand and said, “Good.”


    “Here, Grandma. Taste my barbecuedmb skewers.”


    “I know it will be delicious, Binn.”


    …


    Everyone was considerate of Luo Jin’an’s condition and would only allow him to help season themb skewers so he would not get tired. Of course, Luo Jin’an could not help but look at his wife.


    Suddenly, Su Wenzhe came over with amb skewer. He noticed Luo Jin’an’s gaze and chuckled as he nudged Luo Jin’an’s arm with his elbow. Then he said, “I caught you looking at my sister.”


    Luo Jin’an quickly shifted his gaze and silently lowered his head to put the barbecuedmb skewers on the table.


    Su Wenzhe looked around and found there was no one nearby. He moved closer to his brother-inw and whispered, “I saw how you were looking at Binn.”


    Luo Jin’an nced at Su Wenzhe, and Su Wenzhe felt goosebumps all over his body. He thought it was bizarre and wondered why Luo Jin’an seemed different from before.


    Luo Jin’an would always lower his head and remain quiet as if he did not exist in the past, but his aura was extraordinary now. Su Wenzhe’s legs became weak when Luo Jin’an looked at him.


    Still, Su Wenzhe was Su Binn’s eldest brother, so why would he be afraid of Luo Jin’an? He thought it must have been a misunderstanding. Su Wenzhe continued, “Don’t be embarrassed. You’re married to Binn, which makes you my brother-inw. It’s okay to look at my sister like that.”


    He looked at Su Binn and said, “I’m also aware of how great my sister is. Fortunately, she lives with us in the vige. Countless handsome men would chase after her if she stayed in the city.”


    Su Wenzhe could not help but say that because he saw how everyone surrounded his sister.


    Luo Jin’an’s expression turned cold as he looked at Su Wenzhe and said, “That’s yourmb skewer, right? Do you want me to add seasoning?”


    Su Wenzhe nodded and handed over hismb skewer. “Yes, I just barbecued it. I’d like some seasoning.”


    “Okay.” Luo Jin’an took themb skewer from Su Wenzhe and added the seasoning, but Su Wenzhe overlooked his brother-inw’s actions.


    “There you go.” Luo Jin’an handed themb skewer back to Su Wenzhe.


    “Oh, thanks!” Su Wenzhe took themb skewer and ate it. Suddenly, he eximed, “Whoa, that’s spicy!”


    He put down themb skewer, stuck his tongue out, and kept fanning it with his hands. It was so spicy that he started jumping up and down as tears filled his eyes.


    Everyone was busy talking when they heard themotion. They looked over and asked, “What’s going on?”


    “It’s so spicy!” Su Wenzhe was on the verge of crying. He could barely speak because his mouth was burning from the spice.


    “Quick, drink some water,” Liu Yinyin hurriedly said, “Aunt Liu, do you have some water?”


    “There’s some in the kettle. I’ll go and get some right away!” Madam Liu hurriedly ran to the stove to pour water for Su Wenzhe.


    However, the water was still steaming. “It’s still hot because I just boiled it.”


    Liu Yinyin said anxiously, “You’ll have to drink the water from the bucket, Wenzhe.” She hurriedly picked up adle and scooped some water to hand it to her husband.


    Su Wenzhe quickly took thedle and downed the water. He felt a bit better, but the spiciness lingered in his mouth.


    Shen Qiuhua said, “You said you can’t handle spicy food, so why did you use the spicy seasoning?”


    Su Wenzhe pointed at Luo Jin’an and said, “I-It was Jin’an. He was the one who put the spicy seasoning on mymb skewer.”


    Shen Qiuhua hit Su Wenzhe. “It’s your fault. Don’t me your brother-inw.”


    Su Fengmao echoed. “Your mother is right. Jin’an is usually better at doing things than you, so you were the one who must’ve used the spicy seasoning.”


    Everyone was biased toward Luo Jin’an and Su Binn. Besides, they were familiar with Luo Jin’an’s temperament and knew he was an honest person.


    He was not in good health, yet he always helped and would not rest even if others told him to. Everyone felt sorry for him and could not bear to let others frame him.


    Su Binn walked over and asked, “Big Brother, did you tell Jin’an to put seasoning on yourmb skewer?”


    Su Wenzhe said with a pitiful expression, “I honestly didn’t. Your husband was the one who did it.” He was innocent, after all.


    Su Binn looked at her husband and asked gently, “Is that so?”


    Luo Jin’an sighed and said, “Well, he did ask for some seasoning.”


    ‘I knew it! He did it, but he’s acting as if nothing happened.’


    Still, everyone felt sorry for Luo Jin’an.


    Shen Qiuhua was furious. “Don’t bully your brother-inw into doing things for you next time, Wenzhe. You must treat Jin’an well since he’s a part of our family.”


    Su Fengmao added, “Exactly. You can’t me your brother-inw for doing what you asked him to.”


    Liu Yinyin echoed, “Binn and Jin’an are so good to us, so how can you me Jin’an?”


    Su Wenzhe felt his heart burning hotter than the spice in his mouth. However, he was skeptical and wondered if he really did tell Luo Jin’an to add the spicy seasoning.


    He had forgotten what he had said just now. ‘Did I really ask Jin’an to add the spicy seasoning?’


    Everyoneughed when they saw Su Wenzhe’s reaction to the spiciness.


    “The spicy seasoning is delicious! You should try more of it next time.”


    “Yeah, I agree.”


    …


    Su Binn handed Luo Jin’an themb skewers she had barbecued herself and said, “Don’t work so hard and have some food. The others can add seasoning for themselves if they want. Come and sit with me.”


    “Okay.” Luo Jin’an sat next to his wife.


    Su Binn talked to Luo Jin’an while she continued barbecuing moremb skewers. She had nned to go to the capital the following night and worried about her husband.


    Therefore, she talked to Luo Jin’an for a while and told him many things. The others were embarrassed to run over when they saw the couple sitting together.


    The others wanted to let the young couple talk more, and the elders were delighted to see how harmonious the couple was.


    Even when Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai wanted to approach their aunt, Liu Yinyin stopped them. Eventually, Su Wenzhe took over the duty of seasoning everyone’smb skewers.


    ...


    He seemed to have understood something when he looked at his sister and brother-inw talking sweetly. After a while, he patted his forehead and muttered, “I wonder if Jin’an is a cunning person.”


    Liu Yinyin heard her husband mumbling, but she was unsure if she heard correctly. “Did you say someone is cunning?”


    Su Wenzhe shook his head and pondered. “N-Nothing. Do you think something is a bit off with Jin’an?”


    Liu Yinyin looked at her husband disapprovingly. “Are you still trying to me Jin’an for the seasoning mishap?”


    “N-No! He framed me. I-I said I had trouble cutting the meat.” Su Wenzhe was quick to say cutting instead of cunning to throw Liu Yinyin off.
