The Hunter’s Lively Wife
Chapter 823 - Chapter 823 Chapter 823 The Crime of Disrespect

Chapter 823: Chapter 823: The Crime of Disrespect Chapter 823: Chapter 823: The Crime of Disrespect Today, when she left the Prince Qi Residence, the wife of Prince Rui had rewarded her with a hairpin. Su Yunjin took out the hairpin, “Husband, look, what is this?”

“Yunjin, where did you get this?” It was immediately apparent that the hairpin was valuable.

Gu Yan knew a good hairpin when he saw one.

The jade hairpin in the young wife’s hand, whether it was the jade itself or the ruby inlaid on it, was a rarely seen high-quality item. Su Yunjin did not hide this and directly told Gu Yan, “It was given to me by the wife of Prince Rui.”

The young wife had saved Prince Rui’s wife and the child in her womb, so it made sense that Prince Rui’s wife had given the young wife a hairpin as a reward.

Gu Yan then told the young wife to keep the hairpin safe.

“Yunjin, the hairpin given to you by the wife of Prince Rui, both in terms of its quality and the gems, is a treasure of considerable value. You keep it, and wear it whenever you wish.”

Speaking of its price.

Su Yunjin’s interest was piqued, “Husband, how much silver is this hairpin worth?” If this hairpin was really so valuable, then she could consider selling it and converting the entire amount into silver.

With more silver, she could buy several more shops and then purchase a house in the town. Plus, she could hire a bunch of maids and servants to tend to her, a prospect that made Su Yunjin quite excited.

The young wife’s eyes sparkled while staring at the hairpin in her hand. Gu Yan raised an eyebrow, “Yunjin, you’re not thinking of exchanging this hairpin for silver, are you?”

That was precisely Su Yunjin’s intention.

“Husband, if this hairpin can be exchanged for a lot of money, I think it would be nice to turn it into silver.” After all, the hairpin was just sitting idle with her.

Such a fine hairpin, Su Yunjin certainly didn’t want to wear it out and attract thieves.

Keeping it in the house, it would be better to exchange it for silver. Su Yunjin was happily planning to find someone to convert the hairpin into cash later.

Just as Su Yunjin was gleefully contemplating the exchange for money.

Gu Yan poured a bucket of cold water over Su Yunjin’s head.

“Yunjin, the items gifted to you by the wife of Prince Rui, you should dismiss the thought of exchanging them for cash. In Donglin, there is a rule that the items bestowed by the royal family can only be used by the recipient, and privately exchanging them for money is considered disrespectful to the royal family and is punishable by law.” All items from the royal family have a mark on them.

No matter who sells them privately.

Even the person who buys the items will be punished as well.

Upon hearing Gu Yan’s words, Su Yunjin deflated like a popped balloon, “Ah? Can’t sell?” And might even be punished? What kind of ridiculous rule is that?

The items were given to someone, and they are not allowed to sell?

Su Yunjin grumbled to herself.

The young wife wanted to sell the hairpin, but Gu Yan thought that the hairpin gifted by the wife of Prince Rui to the young wife was good and perfectly suited for the young wife’s own use.

Even if it was sellable!

Gu Yan would have stopped the young wife from selling it.

Now that selling it was not an option, Gu Yan didn’t think there was any issue. As for silver, Gu Yan believed he had the ability to earn it for the young wife’s use. There was no need for the young wife to sell the hairpin given to her by the wife of Prince Rui.

“Yunjin, I think this hairpin looks nice. You should keep it and wear it. After all, we’re not lacking money right now, so why bother exchanging it for silver?”

Gu Yan took the hairpin from the young wife’s hand.

And he helped her put it on her hair bun. Su Yunjin’s complexion, after her daily regimen of applying medicinal mud, had become fair and moist.

Matched with such a ruby hairpin,

It only made the young wife’s complexion look even more flawless.

Gu Yan watched and appraised.

Su Yunjin touched the hairpin that Gu Yan had just placed in her hair bun and asked, “Husband, does it look good?”
