Chapter 442: Chapter 442: Could it be Suspecting Her? Chapter 442: Chapter 442: Could it be Suspecting Her? The revenue from pig’s blood was far beyond Su Yunjin’s expectations.
It had taken her so long to gather that amount, even with her own earnings and the money Gu Ya had given her, she had barely managed to scrape together fifty silver pieces. She had not expected the profit from pig’s blood to amount to so much in one go.
If the pig’s blood business at Fuman Building continued to do well, would she always be able to earn dozens of silver pieces? Su Yunjin was elated.
Suddenly, Gu Ya asked by her ear, “Yun’er, how did you come to know that man just now?”
When asked by Gu Ya, Su Yunjin didn’t conceal anything and told him the truth.
“Husband, I sell pig’s blood to Fuman Building. The gentleman that just approached me owns a restaurant and also wanted to buy my pig’s blood. He found me and discussed business with me.”
Gu Ya raised an eyebrow.
“So, that’s how you two met?”
“The gentleman wanted to buy my pig’s blood, but I have already signed a contract with Fuman Building. Apart from Fuman Building, I won’t sell the method of processing pig’s blood to any other restaurants. I can’t break the agreement, so I refused his request.”
Su Yunjin always adhered to morals when it came to making money.
A gentleman desires wealth but gets it through the right channels. Su Yunjin had always held to this principle.
After hearing his wife’s explanation, Gu Ya didn’t ask any more questions. Su Yunjin sensed something was amiss and looked at Gu Ya doubtfully, “Husband, why are you asking this? Could it be that you suspect there’s something between me and that gentleman?”
“Nonsense!” Gu Ya slapped his wife’s head with one hand.
If he truly suspected his wife of having an affair with that man, he wouldn’t have bothered to ask her about it. Su Yunjin felt her head being slapped.
She couldn’t help feeling somewhat stifled.
Was her head meant to be just casually slapped by anyone?
To be slapped without warning or a single word beforehand.
“From now on, you’re not allowed to slap my head,” Su Yunjin protested to Gu Ya.
Gu Ya responded with an “Oh” and said, “We’ll see!”
Su Yunjin gritted her teeth.
Suddenly, she felt that Gu Ya really deserved a good beating.
They needed to buy flour. Before, Su Yunjin would only buy about twenty jin at a time, but this time Gu Ya was with her, and his leg injury had almost healed completely, so there was no need for concern anymore.
Gu Ya could carry the flour.
Su Yunjin bought fifty jin at once.
Buying more at one time would save them the trouble of having to come back too soon.
Then Su Yunjin went on to buy some meat and pastries. As for fruits, Su Yunjin purchased fresh watermelons, which were the best at quenching thirst.
After buying several large watermelons and cutting them open, they were sent to the workers, which would definitely help to relieve the heat.
Having bought everything they needed, things were the same as before. Su Yunjin and her husband Gu Ya rode a bullock cart back to the village. Su Yunjin was in a good mood today, having made money.
She was very cheerful all the way home.
Mrs. Zhang had tried every possible means but still couldn’t get her son, Gu Changshun, out of the pig cage and was extremely furious. As soon as she returned, she saw Su Yunjin and her husband Gu Ya carrying a bunch of things from the market into their house.
Flour, pork, and even two fish. When Mrs. Zhang saw what Su Yunjin and her husband had bought, her fury soared even higher.
Why should that couple’s life get better and better?
Meanwhile, her son Gu Changshun had been so wronged that he was still soaked in the water with the pig cage?
What made Mrs. Zhang even more intolerable was that despite all her scheming with Wan Ruyan, not only did they fail to split up Gu Ya and his wife, but her own son Gu Changshun got caught up in the mess. How on earth were Su Yunjin and her husband managing to avoid disaster?
She had calculated so cunningly, yet they still managed to evade her traps.
