Chapter 686: Chapter 686: Blaming Oneself for Being Talkative Chapter 686: Chapter 686: Blaming Oneself for Being Talkative “Sister-in-law, don’t be mad about second sister’s matter, father and mother got so angry over this, they even lectured second sister. You don’t know how frightening father was when he got mad, and third brother also didn’t show any good face to second sister. Second sister was being foolish, and the fact that third brother didn’t tell you, he probably did that for your sake, not wanting you to overthink.”
Mrs. Chu was afraid that her loose tongue just now might cause Su Yunjin and her third brother to have a falling out, initially thinking that the third sister-in-law was aware of second sister Gu Hengniang’s matter.
She hadn’t expected that third brother never mentioned it to the third sister-in-law at all. Mrs. Chu hurriedly explained that all the trouble with Wan Ruyan and Gu Hengniang was solely stirred up by those two sister-in-laws, and it had nothing to do with Gu Ya. Although Su Yunjin minded a little that Gu Ya hadn’t told her about this, she wouldn’t let it cause a rift between them because of this matter.
“Sister-in-law, rest assured! I won’t be mad over this.” She would be foolish to get angry over something concerning Wan Ruyan and Gu Hengniang.
Su Yunjin was not so petty as to get mad over irrelevant people. Then Mrs. Chu spoke of the recent incident at Mrs. Zhang’s family, “Sister-in-law, you have no idea, elder brother’s house nearly burned down, and even our and mother’s houses were almost caught in the disaster…”
Mrs. Chu still felt some lingering fear as she talked about it. The Gu Family’s houses were all connected and made of thatch, and if the fire had continued, all of the Gu Family’s houses could have burned down completely. Luckily, the fire set by Wan Ruyan was discovered in time, and people from the village helped.
Everyone flailed about and barely managed to save the Gu Family’s houses. In the end, only the two rooms where Elder Sister-in-law Mrs. Zhang lived were burned.
The rest of the rooms were all unharmed.
How could Mrs. Zhang’s family’s house have suddenly caught fire? Su Yunjin looked puzzled as she asked Mrs. Chu, “Sister-in-law, what on earth happened? How did it catch fire?”
“Wasn’t it that Wan Ruyan? She must have been supposed to consummate her marriage with great-nephew, and when Wan Ruyan was unwilling, she just set the entire room on fire.”
Mrs. Chu told Su Yunjin.
Hearing this, Su Yunjin could not imagine how Wan Ruyan would set Elder Sister-in-law’s house on fire. The enmity between Wan Ruyan and Mrs. Zhang was like a dog-eat-dog drama, and pairing up Gu Changshun and Wan Ruyan, those two of questionable character, was all drama too. Although she found it entertaining, Su Yunjin also felt secretly relieved that she and her husband Gu Ya had moved out of the Gu Family home before. If they hadn’t,
they might have been dragged into the lack of peace now. After all, having the family under one roof, on top of Wan Ruyan’s impure intentions towards Gu Ya. Now that she and her husband Gu Ya had moved out, and Wan Ruyan was still scheming after Gu Ya, who knows what Wan Ruyan might have done if they hadn’t moved out back then?
Su Yunjin sweated just thinking about it.
While she was not afraid of Wan Ruyan and Mrs. Zhang’s family of questionable character, Su Yunjin had no desire to deal with a bunch of them every day. Her time was too precious.
Besides using it to make money,
she had no interest in anything else, let alone handling questionable characters. Mrs. Chu said that after Wan Ruyan burned the Gu Family’s house, she ran back to her parents’ home.
She hasn’t returned since.
Hmph!
Wan Ruyan was rather shrewd after all.
Burned the house and ran.
Neither Mrs. Zhang nor Gu Changshun’s family could do anything to her.
