The Hunter's Lively Wife-Chapter 2063: Help or Not

Gu Tiezhu’s four hundred taels of silver this time, Su Yunjin has no intention of helping him repay. No matter how much or how little money Su Yunjin has, she wouldn’t be so foolish as to pay off someone else’s gambling debts. Moreover, Gu Tiezhu is basically a bottomless pit, and Su Yunjin wouldn’t throw her silver into that endless abyss.

Even if Gu Ya wants to help Gu Tiezhu this time, Su Yunjin will not agree.

Gu Ya was silent for a moment, then finally looked at Su Yunjin and spoke softly, "I won’t, Yunjin, this time, I will not help fourth brother repay his gambling debts."

This simple reasoning that even a young wife can see, Gu Ya of course understands as well. Indeed, if he simply repaid the four hundred taels of silver on behalf of his fourth brother, the issue would be resolved for now. But this is not a fundamental solution to the problem. Gu Ya also refuses to throw silver into a bottomless pit indefinitely.

"Husband, does this mean you don’t plan to intervene in fourth brother’s matter this time?" Su Yunjin asked again.

After some thought, Gu Ya replied, "Yunjin, I will get involved in fourth brother’s matter this time, but I won’t help repay a single copper coin!" Gu Ya’s tone was firm; there was no negotiation when it came to repaying, he would not help Gu Tiezhu with that. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Husband, what do you plan to do?" Su Yunjin wasn’t too surprised by Gu Ya’s answer. No matter what, Gu Tiezhu is Gu Ya’s own brother, and surely Gu Ya wouldn’t stand by and watch as Gu Tiezhu has his limbs cut off.

Gu Ya had thought about this when he was at the pharmacy, "Yunjin, I plan to reach out to some people at the gambling house. Incidentally, a friend of mine has some connections with them, and it shouldn’t be a problem if I ask him to help."

"I will only help Gu Tiezhu keep his hands and feet. As for everything else, I won’t interfere any further." Gu Ya’s face was expressionless.

Helping Gu Tiezhu preserve his hands and feet this time, he as the third brother has already done his utmost out of brotherly duty.

Su Yunjin put down the grape she hadn’t finished eating and wiped her hands. Gu Ya continued, "I’ll have my friend go to the gambling house, as long as they don’t touch my fourth brother’s limbs, whatever they want to do with the rest doesn’t concern me. The money he owes, since he borrowed it, let him repay it himself."

Gu Ya’s words may sound heartless, but in fact, he is helping Gu Tiezhu. Only by letting Gu Tiezhu suffer a harsh lesson will he learn to change his ways. Otherwise, if they easily help him repay the silver this time, Gu Tiezhu won’t remember the lesson and would continue gambling. This time he borrowed four hundred taels, and next time it might be eight hundred, twelve hundred, or even more.

Su Yunjin doesn’t oppose or intend to stop Gu Ya from greeting the gambling house, as long as he doesn’t foolishly help Gu Tiezhu repay money into that bottomless pit.

The rest, Su Yunjin won’t concern herself with too much. Gu Ya also doesn’t want to say much about his fourth brother’s issues, and the young wife didn’t ask further, and Gu Ya automatically let the matter drop.

Just then, the maid carried two large bundles from outside, "Madam, these were sent over by the old madam, I’m not sure where you would like them placed?"

The two bundles were filled with Mrs. An’s usual wears, mostly her clothes, and some of the hair oil and bath beans she liked to use.

In the past, Mrs. An never cared much about her appearance or clothing. But ever since she planned to move in with Su Yunjin to become the head lady of the house, she started to pay more attention to her attire.

With not much hair, Mrs. An would comb it neatly every day, apply hair oil, and wear a headband. She’d also use a hairpin to secure the bun.

Complete with the demeanor of an affluent household’s old matron.
