Chapter 231: Chapter 230: Envy Chapter 231: Chapter 230: Envy The young wife held a hare with an arrow piercing its abdon, the long arrow still embedded in the creature’s belly, its coat stained with fresh blood. Gu Ya, himself a hunter, could imdiately tell that the hare had been taken down by another hunter.
And clearly by an experienced hand at that.
An average hunter couldn’t achieve such precision, to strike a lethal blow to the hare’s abdon with a single arrow. The young wife was not a hunter, so it was obvious she couldn’t have been the one to hunt the hare.
Gu Ya scrutinized the hare in the young wife’s hands, raised an eyebrow, and asked, “Yunjin, who gave you this hare?”
“Big Brother Wang gave it to ,” Su Yunjin didn’t conceal the truth and directly recounted the day’s events on the mountain to Gu Ya, “I went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, and in the middle of it all, I saw Big Brother Wang. He asked after your injury and then gave this hare to take back for you to nourish your body.”
“Yunjin, so you saw Wang ng, and this hare was also given to you by Wang ng?” As for Big Brother Wang the young wife spoke of, aside from Wang ng, Gu Ya couldn’t think of a second person.
Su Yunjin nodded, “Indeed, it was Wang ng! He said that he t you while hunting on the mountain, and also ntioned that the two of you had quite a friendship!”
Gu Ya and Wang ng had t on the mountain; although they didn’t usually interact much! But as hunters in the mountains, seen year-round, coupled with their remarkable archery skills, they naturally beca friends. However, ever since Gu Ya’s leg had been broken, he’d seldom seen Wang ng.
“My lord, I’ll go to the kitchen to cook now; tonight, we’ll eat this plump hare,” Su Yunjin, ever mindful of eating the hare, took it and headed outside.
Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han were both busy washing vegetables in the courtyard, preparing tonight’s dinner. They couldn’t help but envy the sight of the hare in Su Yunjin’s hands.
Such a large plump hare?
Where did that wretched Su Yunjin steal it from?
Mrs. Han and Mrs. Zhang subconsciously believed that the hare in Su Yunjin’s hands was stolen, showing disdain for Su Yunjin on their faces.
A shaless woman who even goes so far as to steal others’ hares to eat.
While looking down on Su Yunjin, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han were both quite envious. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if that hare were theirs?
They also wanted to eat rabbit at, didn’t they?
Lately, the Gu Family had been eating vegetarian every day, not a single piece of at in sight. After the family split, they had clandestinely bought so at from the market to eat.
But it was a small amount, about two taels, hardly enough to fill their stomachs, let alone satisfy their cravings.
As Su Yunjin walked out, she felt the longing glances of Mrs. Han and Mrs. Zhang. Deliberately, she flaunted the wild hare quite openly for them to see.
Just to anger them!
To make them jealous!
Now that the households were divided, each had their own possessions, and Su Yunjin wasn’t afraid of Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han seeing the plump hare in her hands.
Even if they saw it, it wouldn’t matter.
The hare was still hers.
Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han could only crave it enviously.
They couldn’t take it away.
Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han also realized that Su Yunjin was doing it on purpose, so they both turned their faces dark with anger and looked away from Su Yunjin’s hare.
Both were cursing in their hearts, calling Su Yunjin a lowly wretch.
Seeing the black-faced Mrs. Han and Mrs. Zhang, Su Yunjin felt a surge of delight. Carrying the hare, she went to the kitchen; she first placed the basket full of water celery on the table, then started to deal with the wild hare.
