The Hunter's Lively Wife

Chapter 151: Chapter 151 Distracted Chapter 151: Chapter 151 Distracted Gu Yan came along, carrying the wine and bowls himself while Su Yunjin, with her hands empty, followed behind him as they walked out. She thought of the scene where Gu Yan had just kissed her, and was still somewhat dazed.

Had she just been kissed by Gu Yan like that?

And it happened before she could even react?

“Yunjinniang, you’re finally out!” Mrs. Shen said with a smile as she looked at her daughter, then asked Gu Yan, “Son-in-law, what were Yunjinniang doing in the kitchen that took so long for you to come out?”

Su Yunjin felt a twinge of guilt, worried that her mother might have seen what she and Gu Yan had been doing in the kitchen. She hurriedly said, “Mother, it’s nothing! I was just tasting the rice wine in the kitchen.”

“So, Yunjinniang, you’ve had some wine?” Mrs. Shen’s brow furrowed instantly, “Yunjinniang, how could you drink wine? That is something for men, what business does a woman have drinking wine?”

“Son-in-law, next time you must keep an eye on Yunjinniang, and make sure she doesn’t drink again.” After scolding her daughter, Mrs. Shen instructed Gu Yan not to allow Su Yunjin to drink.

Gu Yan looked at his little wife with a smile that was not quite a smile, stretched out his tongue, and licked his lips, enacting a gesture that was both sexy and provocative, “Mother, rest assured! I will keep an eye on Yunjinniang and make sure she doesn’t drink again.”

Embarrassingly enough, Su Yunjin’s face heated up immediately under Gu Yan’s gaze, and she didn’t dare to look at him again. She quickly diverted her attention elsewhere.

As soon as Gu Yan arrived, Su Zhongshi had his eye on the jar of wine in Gu Yan’s hand, “Son-in-law, quickly fill up a cup for your father-in-law. Today at lunch, we must have a good drink together.”

“Father, as you say.” Gu Yan first poured a full cup of rice wine for Su Yunjin’s father, Su Zhongshi, and then filled another one for himself.

The thing that made Su Yunjin the happiest was being able to completely resolve the issue of her second sister, Su Ningxiu, “Father, husband, second sister finally doesn’t have to marry Old Master Huang. With so many good dishes on the table, let’s take this as a celebration for second sister.”

“Yunjinniang, the fact that your second sister doesn’t have to marry Old Master Huang is indeed something worthy of celebration,” Mrs. Shen also said with a smile.

Of course, the happiest person was Su Ningxiu herself. If she had really been sold to the Huang Residence by her stepmother, Mrs. Tao, Su Ningxiu could hardly imagine what would become of her.

Today, successfully managing to fend off her stepmother and avoid marrying Old Master Huang was all thanks to the help of her brother-in-law and younger sister. Su Ningxiu looked at her younger sister Su Yunjin and Gu Yan earnestly, “Younger sister, brother-in-law, this time you’ve helped me so much with my issue. If it weren’t for you two, I’m afraid I might already have been tied up and taken to the Huang Residence by stepmother and second uncle.”

“Second sister, why be so formal with us?” Su Yunjin placed a fried crab into her second sister’s bowl, smiling as she said, “These crabs were fried by mother, and I remember you love them. Come on, let’s all eat. Otherwise, the food will get cold.”

“Yes, yes, yes, come on, let’s all eat. Otherwise, the dishes will cool down, and they won’t taste as good.” The dishes on the table were all freshly caught from the water – the fish and crabs needed to be eaten hot to be delicious, or else they’d taste fishy once cold. Mrs. Shen picked up her chopsticks and urged everyone to eat.

Su Yunjin also picked a fried crab for herself to eat. Her mother had fried the crab to a perfect crispness. After cracking open the shell and scooping out the meat, Su Yunjin enjoyed one crab, then moved on to the escargot.

Su Xiaobao was also enjoying his food immensely. Normally, he loved eating crabs, but today, the garlic-flavored snails that Su Yunjin prepared were particularly delicious, and without pause, Su Xiaobao kept eating the escargot.
