Chapter 396: Chapter 396: Enduring Chapter 396: Chapter 396: Enduring Since finding out that Fan Wenxuan had hugged her briefly,
Gu Ya’s handsome face remained dark, and neither husband nor wife spoke further. Su Yunjin knew that Gu Ya regretted not dealing with Fan Wenxuan more severely, and thinking of Gu Ya’s leg, she quickly looked at him and asked, “By the way, husband, are your legs okay?”
“They’re fine, Yun Consort, don’t worry.” Gu Ya had not felt anything when he had just kicked Fan Wenxuan, but now that his little wife asked, he began to notice a faint discomfort in his legs.
However, fearing to worry his little wife, Gu Ya did not reveal this to her.
He thought that resting for a while when they returned should be enough to alleviate the issue.
Su Yunjin was not reassured about Gu Ya’s legs, and, even though Gu Ya said they were fine, she still intended to thoroughly check them when they got back.
Not long before, Gu Ya had left to buy a hairpin for his little wife, and upon noticing the disturbance outside, he had come out, having not yet paid for the selected hairpin.
After what had just happened,
Gu Ya also did not dare to let his little wife wait outside alone anymore.
“Yun Consort, let’s go! We’ll pay the silver for the wine now,” said Gu Ya, and only then did Su Yunjin realize that he had asked her to wait here because he went to buy something.
Curiously, Su Yunjin asked, “Husband, what did you go to buy just now?”
“A hairpin!” replied Gu Ya.
Su Yunjin followed Gu Ya into a jewelry shop, and the shopkeeper, upon seeing Gu Ya, smiled and said, “Young Master, here’s your hairpin. Here, I’ve already wrapped it up for you.”
Handing the hairpin to Gu Ya, the shopkeeper noticed Su Yunjin standing beside him.
He smiled again and added, “Young Master, is this lady next to you your wife? No wonder you personally came to pick a hairpin for your wife. With such a lovely little wife, who wouldn’t want to pamper her?”
Gu Ya looked back at his little wife.
Then he handed the wrapped hairpin to Su Yunjin.
“Yun Consort, this is for you.”
Su Yunjin received the hairpin, and Gu Ya then took out the silver to pay the shopkeeper.
Leaving the shop, Su Yunjin, holding the silver hairpin in hand, asked Gu Ya, “Husband, what made you suddenly think of buying me a hairpin?”
“Yun Consort, we’ve been married for quite some time now, and I realize I haven’t yet bought anything for you.” It was thanks to his little wife that he was able to stand up this time.
If not for his little wife,
Gu Ya knew he would still be lying in the house.
Looking at Gu Ya, Su Yunjin said, “So, you specially chose this hairpin for me?”
“Yun Consort, you haven’t seen the style of the hairpin yet. Why don’t you open it and see if you like it?” Gu Ya said with a smile, urging Su Yunjin to open and see the hairpin.
Su Yunjin glanced at Gu Ya and then looked down at the packaged hairpin in her hands. After thinking for a moment, she opened the small wooden box containing the hairpin.
Laying inside the box was a delicate and elegant silver hairpin adorned with two small flowers. Su Yunjin liked the hairpin’s simple yet generous style.
After examining the hairpin and placing it back in the box, Su Yunjin said to Gu Ya, “The style of this hairpin is decent.”
From the tone of his little wife, it was clear she was satisfied.
Just now Gu Ya had been afraid that she might not be satisfied with his choice!
Now that his little wife was satisfied,
Gu Ya was relieved as well.
Worried about Gu Ya’s legs, Su Yunjin did not dare to linger any longer in the market.
They immediately took an ox cart back home together.
While at the market, Gu Ya could endure the pain in his legs, but upon returning home, he distinctly felt some discomfort, even though he did not mention it out loud.
