Chapter 1230: Chapter 1230: Captivated
Su Yunjin didn’t have a favorable impression of Gu Hengniang!
Seeing Gu Hengniang, Su Yunjin didn’t invite her into the house to sit, she just asked her indifferently at the doorway, “Sister, are you here for something? If you’re looking for my husband, he’s not here.”
Gu Hengniang was someone Su Yunjin actually didn’t want to talk much to. If it weren’t for Gu Ya’s sake, Su Yunjin would have already shut the door and ignored her.
Wan Da’an had taken a concubine, and Gu Hengniang was having a hard time in the Wan Family. Initially, Wan Da’an used to give her some of the household money, but since Wan Da’an married that seductive woman, let alone giving money, even looking at Gu Hengniang made Wan Da’an feel impatient. In the first two months, Wan Da’an had still given Gu Hengniang some silver.
Later, Wan Da’an had completely fallen for that woman and was unwilling to give Gu Hengniang even a copper coin. Gu Hengniang, having not given birth to a son, had little status in the Wan Family to begin with.
Everything to do with Wan Ruyan was blamed on Gu Hengniang. Now, Gu Hengniang’s position in the Wan Family was like walking on thin ice; she was displeasing to everyone inside and out.
Wan Da’an wouldn’t give her money. Gu Hengniang had made a scene in front of her mother-in-law several times, but the mother-in-law didn’t intervene and even defended that woman.
Wan Da’an’s mother, seeing that Gu Hengniang was unable to bear a son–having given birth twice, each time to a daughter–decided that Gu Hengniang wasn’t destined to bear a son. She pinned her hopes on Wan Da’an’s concubine, hoping the concubine would bear him a son.
The mother-in-law heavily favored the concubine and barely recognized Gu Hengniang as a legitimate daughter-in-law of the Wan Family.
In the Wan Family, to put it nicely, Gu Hengniang was a daughter-in-law; to put it harshly, she was more like a servant, attending to young and old in the family.
Although Wan Da’an was unkind to Gu Hengniang, she still remembered his birthday, which was just a few days away. Gu Hengniang wanted to buy him an expensive gift.
Gu Hengniang had heard Wan Da’an mention he wanted to buy a jade pendant, and she planned to buy it for him on his birthday. Seeing the jade pendant she chose, Wan Da’an would surely be moved.
Perhaps he would remember the affection of their past decade together and start treating her well again. Wan Da’an was currently enchanted by that woman, but Gu Hengniang believed it was just a momentary confusion.
She and Wan Da’an had been husband and wife for decades. Wan Da’an surely had feelings for her; he couldn’t truly despise her. Thinking of buying a jade pendant for Wan Da’an, but Gu Hengniang didn’t have any money.
All the money she had altogether was less than three taels of silver. Such a small amount wasn’t even enough to buy a jade hairpin, let alone a jade pendant.
She had to find some money.
