Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Who Is It? Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Who Is It? Gu Ya’s dicinal ointnt felt cool and comfortable on the wound on her hand, the pain was not as intense as before, and Su Yunjin was curious where Gu Ya had obtained the ointnt from.
Su Yunjin asked him, “Husband, who gave you this ointnt? Or did you borrow it again?” She recalled that the last ti she had suffered a fall, Gu Ya had borrowed a box of ointnt from soone else at the Hongyun Building to treat her.
However, Su Yunjin clearly rembered the ointnt that Gu Ya had borrowed last ti, and it seed different from the one he was applying now.
The box Gu Ya had borrowed previously was smaller than this one, and the color of the ointnt was different too—last ti it was a brownish-yellow, this ti it was pitch black.
Moreover, the scents of the two ointnts were distinct, with the current one not slling as bitter or unpleasant as the ointnt Gu Ya had used on her the last ti.
As soon as the previous ointnt was opened, it emitted a foul, pungent odor.
“Yunjin, this ointnt was not borrowed, I bought it.” After the incident where his young wife accidentally got injured, Gu Ya bought the ointnt to carry with him when coming to the market. Should his young wife accidentally knock or bump into sothing again, he could use his ointnt on her.
Gu Ya had purchased it with his wife in mind, not expecting it would co in handy so soon. Su Yunjin had assud that Gu Ya had borrowed it. Seeing him say it was purchased,
the curious Su Yunjin asked Gu Ya, “Husband, when did you buy this ointnt? How co I didn’t know?” Lately, Su Yunjin had been accompanying Gu Ya into town every day. While Gu Ya did the accounts at the tavern, Su Yunjin went to the shop she bought to brew wine. They were together every day.
Su Yunjin never noticed Gu Ya buying any dicine!
After putting away the ointnt that had been used, Gu Ya did not offer his young wife a detailed explanation but told her instead, “Yunjin, let’s go, we should head back now.”
Having been startled today, Gu Ya decided to take his young wife back to rest for a day. Su Yunjin, however, did not plan to return just yet. Now, Su Yunjin wanted to first visit the wine shop. Today, her fruit wine was vandalized, and aside from wanting to brew a few more jars of fruit wine, she also wanted to find out who had smashed her wines.
“Husband, who do you think vandalized my fruit wine today?” Su Yunjin had never encountered such an incident before, and this was a first for her.
Previously, Su Yunjin hadn’t thought much about it, assuming it was a mishap from above, not knowing who was responsible for the vandalism. But now, having cald down, she gave it more thought.
Su Yunjin felt that the matter might not be so simple. If the person was a stranger, with no grudge against her, why would they suddenly erge to smash her fruit wine?
Upon reflection, Su Yunjin surmised that those who vandalized her fruit wine were most likely acquainted with her and even had a grudge against her, but who exactly? Who couldn’t stand to see her, Su Yunjin, prosper?
The suspects were not many—just her elder sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhang’s family, and Wan Ruyan and her Wan Family. Su Yunjin went over all the possible suspects in her mind, yet still could not ascertain the culprit.
The evidence to prove who was responsible was too scant!
She didn’t see what those people looked like. If she had been outside and seen the people who were smashing her wines, she would likely be able to identify the culprit by now, wouldn’t she?
As the young wife pondered, Gu Ya pondered too. He also suspected that those who smashed his young wife’s fruit wine knew her, and those people must have suffered a loss at their hands previously. This ti, seeing the young wife alone, they took the opportunity for revenge.
