Chapter 168: Chapter 168 Luck Chapter 168: Chapter 168 Luck “Yunjin, listen to me, your elder brother is also my elder brother, so his affairs are mine as well. Leave his indenture contract to me, I’ll help you redeem it.”
Gu Ya was a grown man, and though his leg was lame, there were still ways for him to earn money.
“Husband, I’m serious. We can think of another way to deal with my brother’s issues, please don’t go hunting in the mountains,” Su Yunjin pleaded, tugging at Gu Ya’s sleeve to dissuade him from hunting on the mountain.
Gu Ya placed his large hand on the head of his petite wife, “Yunjin, don’t worry, I won’t go hunting in the mountains.”
“Really?” Su Yunjin looked at Gu Ya, half believing, half doubtful.
She could not shake the feeling that Gu Ya would still go to the mountains.
Gu Ya said, “Yunjin, I have good handwriting, and I know how to do math and keep accounts. I’ll go to the town’s market and look for some work that involves writing and calculating. That way, I can make money too.”
What Gu Ya said was actually to pacify his young wife; he still planned to go hunting in the mountains. Finding work at the market that involved writing and calculating could earn money, but it was slow compared to the quick money made from hunting on the mountain.
To keep his wife from worrying, Gu Ya deliberately said this.
Early in the morning, Su Ningxiu told her parents that her younger sister Su Yunjin already knew about their elder brother Su Muze’s situation, and both Su Zhongshi and Mrs. Shen were surprised to ask at the same time, “Xiuxiu, why did you tell your sister about this?”
They had agreed to keep it a secret from Su Yunjin.
“Dad, Mom, don’t blame second sister, I insisted that she tell me,” Su Yunjin entered the kitchen just in time to hear the conversation between her parents and her older sister.
Mrs. Shen looked at Su Yunjin, afraid that she might blame herself, and hurriedly said, “Yunjin, you can’t blame yourself for your brother’s situation. Don’t take it too hard! Your father and I will find a way to earn money to redeem your brother’s indenture contract.”
“Mom, I will think of ways together with you and Dad to help big brother,” Su Yunjin decided that she would start thinking of ways that very day to help redeem her brother Su Muze as soon as possible.
As a person from the modern era, Su Yunjin refused to believe that she couldn’t come up with a good method to make money in this ancient time.
Standing beside his young wife, Gu Ya looked at Mrs. Shen and Su Ningxiu after Yunjin finished speaking and said, “Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, second sister, I will also help you all solve my brother-in-law’s issues.”
Mrs. Shen, moved by the sight of her daughter and son-in-law, said warmly, “Alright, Yunjin, son-in-law, let’s think of a way together to redeem your big brother.”
After breakfast, Su Yunjin began to ponder ways to make money, and Gu Ya, standing next to his wife, broke the silence by saying, “Yunjin, I’m planning to return to the Gu Family today! I’ll come to see you again in a couple of days.”
“Husband, are you leaving now?” Su Yunjin asked.
“Mm,” Gu Ya looked at his young wife, “Yunjin, I have been staying with you at the Su Family for a few days now; it’s time for me to go back and see how things are.”
After returning home, Gu Ya intended to go hunting on the mountain.
But fearing that his wife would worry, Gu Ya did not plan on sharing his thoughts with her.
Once he earned some silver, he would tell his wife that he earned it by helping someone at the market.
Ever since she returned to the Su Family, Gu Ya had been staying with her there, and indeed, he had been with her at the Su Family for several days now.
Gu Ya had to go back, and Su Yunjin could not stop him from leaving, “Husband, if you need to return to the Gu Family, then go!”
Her elder brother Su Muze’s matter had not been resolved yet, and for the moment, she could not leave.
