The Hunter’s Lively Wife
Chapter 956 - Chapter 956 Chapter 956 Not Daring to Neglect

Chapter 956: Chapter 956 Not Daring to Neglect Chapter 956: Chapter 956 Not Daring to Neglect The young wife is pregnant and cannot simply forgo eating, so Mrs. Chu proposed that Gu Ya and Su Yunjin go to their bun shop to drink some porridge, and Gu Ya did not refuse.

Mrs. Chu brought over a bowl of steaming porridge, as well as some boiled eggs and buns for Gu Ya and Su Yunjin. The buns were fresh out of the steamer and still releasing puffs of hot steam.

Gu Ya scooped a spoonful of porridge, blew on it gently, and once it had cooled down, he brought the spoon to his wife’s lips, “Yunjin, come, have some warm porridge.”

Su Yunjin had no appetite.

After a few spoonfuls, she stopped eating.

The shop had been burnt to ashes, and although Su Yunjin had now accepted the fact that the shop was burned down, she truly couldn’t pretend as if nothing had happened, as if the shop had not been reduced to ashes.

With the shop burned down, Su Yunjin was in a bad mood.

She didn’t want to eat the porridge.

Gu Ya knew his young wife was in a bad mood, but even if she was in a bad mood, she still needed to eat the porridge, “Yunjin, be good and eat your porridge.”

Su Yunjin shook her head, not wanting to eat at all, but when she thought of the child in her belly, she knew that even if she didn’t eat, the child needed to. For the sake of her child, Su Yunjin decided to eat a little. Taking the spoon from Gu Ya’s hand, she braced herself, planning to eat at least half a bowl of porridge.

The young wife was now pregnant and needed good nourishment for her body. After coaxing his wife to eat the porridge, Gu Ya planned to take advantage of her eating to go to the town and buy some good things to bring back to nourish Yunjin. “Yunjin, you eat first, I’ll be back in a little while.”

Su Yunjin took a spoonful and put it into her mouth, looking bewildered at Gu Ya, “Husband, where are you going?”

“Yunjin, I’ll be back very soon.” Gu Ya left without telling his wife where he was headed. After Gu Ya left, Su Yunjin continued to eat her porridge.

Thinking about their shop being reduced to ashes, Su Yunjin felt there was something suspicious about the incident. She and Gu Ya had not stayed at the shop for just one night, and such an incident occurred. Su Yunjin did not believe it was an accident from the previous night; she was convinced that the fire was deliberately set by someone.

No matter who that person was, Su Yunjin was determined to find them out. She couldn’t let her shop just be burnt to the ground without consequences.

Su Yunjin made up her mind.

To seek the truth.

Mrs. Chu, after attending to some customers, came over to comfort Su Yunjin, “Sister-in-law, don’t be too upset about the shop being burned. You should try to take it easy.” Mrs. Chu also felt very sorry for Su Yunjin, but now that the shop was gone, sorrow would not change anything.

The shop was gone.

If she were to make herself ill over it, it would not be worth it. Su Yunjin nodded at Mrs. Chu’s kind words. Just as Mrs. Chu was about to speak, she saw her husband Gu Jianghai coming back.

“Husband, how did it go? What did the Magistrate say?” Mrs. Chu was concerned about the reporting to the officials.

Su Yunjin was also concerned.

After having run the whole way, Gu Jianghai was hot all over, dripping with sweat, and thirsty. Mrs. Chu handed him a bowl of water, and after taking a big gulp, he began to tell Su Yunjin and Mrs. Chu about reporting to the officials, “The Magistrate immediately said he would thoroughly investigate the matter after hearing that the Zuixiang Restaurant had been burned down last night and would seek the true cause of the fire.”

Previously, the wife of Prince Rui had a word with the Magistrate, asking him to give special treatment to Zuixiang Restaurant. Now that something had happened to the restaurant, the Magistrate did not dare to neglect the matter considering the connection to Prince Qi Residence.
