Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

" Its not your fault either " said Lin Yan finally speaking up from behind Lin Yu and Su Wan , now that he had a good grasp of what happened he can give his suggestions- Lin Yu glanced at him with disdain , yeah sure join us now that the worst has passed , won't you ?

Lin Yan ignored him " you are their boss that's true but you can't spilt yourself in three halves and keep an eye on all the three shops in the same attentive manner , you are bound to make some mistakes . I think you are trying to push too much blame on yourself , the servants were like this ever since your father was in charge you can't just change their living conditions in a blink "

Su Wan shook her head , as a worker and later on a successful restaurant owner, she knew how hard it was to work under unreasonable bosses , who only cared about their own benefits . She thought she would do a good job when she took the shops that never belonged to her - Lin Yan and Lin Yu didn't know anything about her transmigration but she did , she knew that these shops weren't her own yet she snatched it from the Su Family because she thought that it was the right thing to do but now - she was feeling a bit bad for she messed up . 

Neither Lin Yu and Lin Yan understood why Su Wan was upset with herself , yet they still tried to uplift her mood " Wan Wan y..you don't fe..feel bad , if ..if y..you think you were in the w…wrong , you can a..always ch..change "

" That's right " patting Su Wan head , Lin Yan too tried to boost her morale " you are only a couple of weeks late , the winter have not started yet , you can always make up for your wrong , what's the point on beating yourself "

That's right what was the point of feeling upset ? Thought Su Wan in her head . True , she messed up but as long as she knew she messed up , she can always change it for better couldn't she ? 

" That's right ! So what if I couldn't help them now ? I can always do better in the future " a new surge of enthusiasm roared inside Su Wan and in her uplifted mood , she went to another shop wanting to buy infused oils - now that she has decided to improve the make up shop as well , she decided to get on making the soaps as early as possible . But when she went inside the other shop and asked for the price of infused oils .

" What ? A single tael for this small bottle of oil ?" Su Wan was shocked even though she wasn't a miser like Lin Yan she still thought  that a tael for a small bottle of infused oil was too much . With a tael she could buy so much meat and introduce so many dishes in her shops , but that wasn't the same case for this small bottle , with such a small teensy tiny bottle she won't be able to make a good batch of soaps - not to mention its scent was so strong and uncomfortable , it clearly wasn't in line with her essential oils and yet she have to pay a tael for this thing that she had to dilute before she could use ? 

No ! As much as spendthrift she was , she refused to give an entire salary of many to buy a bottle that could easily fit in her small palm . 

" what you didn't find what you wanted here too ?" Asked Lin Yan when Su Wan left the other shop with an ugly expression as well . 

"I did "

"Then why didn't you buy anything ?" Lin Yan was confused , in his mind three hundred copper coins was enough for rogue and face powder , why was Su Wan still empty handed ? 

" Because what I wanted to buy they were selling it for one silver tael " she said then she explained them what happened in the shop . 

" What one tael for a small bottle of infused oil ? What a rip off why don't they just go ahead and steal " Lin Yan was at once enraged , to him one tael was equivalent to a monthly salary of the rich villagers , even the villagers who work for entire year could save this much yet the people here in town were selling a bottle of infused oil for one tael ? How ridiculous ! 

" There is  no point getting angry " sighed Su Wan , the infused oils were really popular with the rich misses and masters , this era had no such thing as perfumes at most people might use musk as scented perfume or dried flower petals , but the thing with musk was it was harmful for pregnant women and girls as well and dried petals were cumbersome thus infused oils were a lot more popular among the rich women who had no other job except playing mahjong and shopping . 

Lin Yan saw her crestfallen expression and hesitated , feeling a lot more unhappy with himself - if only he could earn more . After deducting the money to save for their mother's medicine money and Lin Rui 's admission fees , he wasn't left with much money . 

Lin Yu was unhappy as well , if only he brought a few things less , maybe his wife could have brought what she wanted . 

Su Wan saw that the two became upset as well and smiled " Its fine , if I can't get it here - I might try to make it myself "  though the thing was she only knew the theory of making essential oils because once her friend who was crazy about makeup told her how she made essential oils at home to help her with skin breakouts - she had never once tried to make them because she never got the time to care about her skin. She was too busy making secret and unique marinate sauces for her BBQ . 

But now it looks like she has to try her hand in it as well .
