The Hunter’s Lively Wife
Chapter 1014 - Chapter 1014 Chapter 1114 Heartbroken

Chapter 1014: Chapter 1114: Heartbroken Chapter 1014: Chapter 1114: Heartbroken In order to save Gu Tiezhu’s hands, Gu Jianghai bargained with those men for half a day, and eventually, they agreed to spare Gu Tiezhu for ten pieces of silver.

Ten pieces of silver was half a month’s profit for the Bun Shop.

Giving away ten pieces of silver to strangers was something Mrs. Chu found extremely distressing. Gu Jianghai too was reluctant, but for Gu Tiezhu’s sake, he had to begrudgingly pay the money.

Su Yunjin stared at Mrs. Chu, dumbfounded.

“Sister-in-law, are you saying that you and the fifth brother actually gave the silver to the fourth brother?” The day Gu Tiezhu came to swindle money from her and Gu Ya and was disciplined by Gu Ya, Su Yunjin thought Gu Tiezhu would have learned his lesson and turned honest, not expecting that Gu Tiezhu would still go on to deceive the fifth brother and them.

Mrs. Chu was still feeling the pain, “Sister-in-law, husband gave ten pieces of silver to fourth brother, and asked him to use it to repay his gambling debts.”

To prevent Mrs. Chu and Gu Jianghai from being deceived again,

Su Yunjin decided to tell Mrs. Chu about Gu Tiezhu’s deceit.

“Sister-in-law, not to hide it from you, before going to you and the fifth brother, he had also come to me and your third brother.” At that time, she and Gu Ya had seen through Gu Tiezhu’s scheme.

Thus, they were not deceived.

After hearing what Su Yunjin said, Mrs. Chu looked at her in shock. “Sister-in-law, are you saying that the fourth brother also approached you and the third brother? Was it also to ask you to repay his gambling debts?”

Su Yunjin nodded.

“Sister-in-law, when the fourth brother came to us, he told us that he owed someone a thousand pieces of silver in gambling debts and asked us to help him repay it. He also said that if we didn’t help him, he would be crippled by others.”

Gu Tiezhu had told her and Gu Jianghai that he owed thirty pieces of silver to someone else, with his statements inconsistent between his claims to Mrs. Chu and her, clearly indicating something was amiss.

Mrs. Chu was not foolish. As Su Yunjin spoke further, Mrs. Chu suddenly realized, “Sister-in-law, do you mean that the fourth brother was colluding with those people to swindle money from me and the fifth brother?”

It dawned on Mrs. Chu immediately.

Su Yunjin did not deny it, “Sister-in-law, you guessed right, the fourth brother was indeed in cahoots with those people, they were all together, and they were never going to harm the fourth brother’s arms. It was all an act for your attention.”

After hearing Su Yunjin’s explanation,

Mrs. Han only realized the seriousness of the situation after the fact; regrets were too late since Mrs. Chu had already given the silver to Gu Tiezhu.

The silver that had landed in Gu Tiezhu’s hands would certainly not be returned to them. Realizing she had been deceived, Mrs. Chu was furious and declared she would retrieve the silver.

Mrs. Chu left in a hurry.

Su Yunjin could not stop her.

Gu Ya came over from outside, noticed Mrs. Chu had come and seemed very upset as she left, so he approached his wife, Gu Ya asked his wife.

“Yunjin, what’s wrong with your sister-in-law? I see she looked quite upset?” Mrs. Chu was usually gentle, and it was rare to see her like today.

Su Yunjin sighed, “Husband, little did you know, the fourth brother Gu Tiezhu, besides coming here that day to swindle money, also went to the fifth brother and sister-in-law. Just now, sister-in-law realized that she and the fifth brother were tricked out of money by fourth brother, and she left very upset.”

Gu Ya was slightly surprised.

“Yunjin, are you saying that the fourth brother went to swindle money from the fifth brother and his wife too?”

Su Yunjin looked at Gu Ya, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to him, “Exactly. Fourth brother didn’t get any silver from us, and next thing, he went to the fifth brother and the sister-in-law. They weren’t cautious and were deceived.”
