Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Bumped into it Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Bumped into it After Gu Ya finished wiping his legs,
Su Yunjin helped him carry out the used water and cloth.
She dumped the water from the wooden basin.
Su Yunjin went to the well to draw a bucket of water and cleaned the cloth Gu Ya had just used.
After washing it, she hung it to dry on an iron wire in the courtyard.
Mrs. Zhang was washing her feet in the courtyard and felt a surge of irritation upon seeing Su Yunjin emerge.
That wretched Su Yunjin, who knows what despicable method she used to sneak a rabbit home for a meal!
Mrs. Zhang had wanted to see Su Yunjin and Gu Ya struggling without food after they separated their household, yet unexpectedly, the couple had meat to eat, and it was rabbit meat, no less!
It must have had plenty of fat and flavor.
Mrs. Zhang, both angry and envious, looked at Su Yunjin with a venomous gaze.
Initially, Su Yunjin did not notice Mrs. Zhang’s stare, but after she finished hanging the cloth, she felt someone watching her. Su Yunjin instinctively turned around and saw Mrs. Zhang.
“Tch!” As Su Yunjin turned, Mrs. Zhang spat disdainfully on the ground and snorted as she swayed back inside.
Just as Mrs. Zhang was about to step over the threshold into her home, she heard the sound of Su Yunjin closing her door before her. When she turned around, Su Yunjin had already disappeared.
The door to the house was tightly shut.
For no reason, Mrs. Zhang felt a surge of anger and kicked the threshold, howling in pain for a while.
She cursed their bad luck!
That wretched Su Yunjin was nothing but bad luck.
Every encounter with her brought nothing good.
When the young wife returned, Gu Ya had already lain down.
“Yunjin, it’s getting late, come to bed!”
Gu Ya invited his young wife to sleep.
Su Yunjin indeed planned to go to bed.
She had to go to the market early the next morning to gather medicines for Lord Gu Chengxiang.
Gu Ya’s medicine was more than half gone, and she needed to get more.
Going to bed early tonight meant she could get up early tomorrow.
After extinguishing the oil lamp in the room, Su Yunjin took off her clothes and shoes and lay down beside Gu Ya.
When sleeping, it was usually Su Yunjin who lay inside, and Gu Ya on the outside.
As soon as Su Yunjin lay down, her whole body felt tired from the day’s fatigue.
Just as she was about to close her eyes, she felt a long, strong hand stretch over and lie across her waist.
Before Su Yunjin could finish, her entire body was pulled into Gu Ya’s embrace.
Her chin knocked against Gu Ya’s shoulder, causing her own chin to hurt.
“What are you doing? You knocked my chin,” Su Yunjin said somewhat angrily while rubbing her chin.
This damn man always took advantage of her.
“Yunjin, my apologies, how is it? Does it still hurt?” Gu Ya didn’t expect to bump into his young wife.
He just wanted to hold her in his embrace!
Although bumping into her was an accident, it was still his fault.
Gu Ya’s hand, callused from years of hunting, especially the pad of his thumb, touched Su Yunjin’s chin.
He rubbed his large hand back and forth on Su Yunjin’s chin, which tickled her.
“Husband, move your hand!” Su Yunjin couldn’t stand it anymore and pushed at Gu Ya’s hand.
Gu Ya held Su Yunjin still, his voice deep and especially gentle, “Yunjin, hold still, let me rub it for you.”
Su Yunjin stared at Gu Ya, transfixed. Perhaps it was the gentleness of his voice that made her forget about pushing him away.
