Chapter 1217: Chapter 1217: Husband, Can We Really Do This?

Gu Ya pulled his young wife back again.

This place was slippery.

Gu Ya dared not let his young wife fetch water to drink.

“Yunjin, if you want water, I’ll fetch it for you,” why should the young wife do it? It wasn’t a difficult task. It was always better for him to do it rather than let the young wife take the risk.

Su Yunjin was easy to talk to, but Gu Ya stopped her, “Yunjin, listen to me, stand right there and don’t move, I’ll go fetch the water for you.” As he spoke, Gu Ya quickly reached a large tree.

There was a stone slab nearby, and Gu Ya brought over a bucket from the stone slab and fetched a wooden ladle from the bucket to fetch water, Su Yunjin watched him in surprise.

She hadn’t expected Gu Ya to have placed a wooden bucket in this place, and even inside the bucket, there was a wooden ladle. Gu Ya first rinsed the ladle, and it was clean.

He then fetched the flowing mountain spring water for his young wife.

He fetched half a ladle of water.

Gu Ya casually handed it to his young wife.

Su Yunjin’s eyes shone.

She stared at the water in the wooden ladle as if eyeing prey.

She brought the ladle to her lips to taste.

It was warm.

The mountain spring water was not only not cold but very warm, not icy at all, and as Su Yunjin drank, it was as sweet and crisp as she had imagined, tasting very good.

She took two sips consecutively.

Gu Ya then took the wooden ladle from his young wife’s hands.

“Yunjin, that’s enough, don’t drink too much.” After all, it was cold water, and the young wife was pregnant, so it wasn’t suitable to drink too much. Su Yunjin handed the wooden ladle back to Gu Ya.

With a satisfied expression, she wiped her mouth with her sleeve, “Husband, this water is really sweet. It tastes even better than the water we draw from the well. I like the water here.”

This place had pure mountain spring water.

Naturally, it tasted better.

Gu Ya carelessly tossed the wooden ladle back into the nearby wooden bucket, which was why the fruit wine he brewed was more delicious and mellow than what his young wife had previously brewed.

Gu Ya unexpectedly discovered that the water here was sweet and delicious.

He speculated that if he used this water for brewing wine, the taste might unexpectedly be excellent, just as Gu Ya learned that the family who lived in the thatched cottage on the mountain had made money and moved to build a house at the foot of the mountain.

The house here was idle and no one lived in it.

Finding the owner of the thatched cottage, Gu Ya expressed his wish to buy, given that the place was remote and on the mountain, after moving down, the owner of the thatched cottage never thought that their cottage would be sellable.

No one would want to buy in their remote location.

It was unexpected for Gu Ya to want it.

It was rare for someone to buy.

The owner of the thatched cottage was very pleased and sold the cottage to Gu Ya.

Su Yunjin looked at the continuously flowing spring water, really wanting to go down and soak her feet, but unfortunately, being pregnant and having just fetched water, Gu Ya would not allow it.

Something like soaking her feet, Gu Ya would certainly refuse without a second thought. Just when she felt a bit disappointed, Gu Ya seemed to read her mind.

He spontaneously suggested, “Yunjin, if you want to use this mountain spring water to soak your feet, I can fetch a bucket of water for you, and you can soak in the bucket.”

Su Yunjin’s face lit up.

“Husband, really?” She had thought that Gu Ya would refuse! She didn’t expect that Gu Ya would offer to fetch water for her to soak her feet. Su Yunjin was thrilled.

Without responding to his young wife’s words, Gu Ya carried the bucket to the side of the creek and quickly fetched a bucket of water, “Yunjin, go sit on the stone slab nearby. I’ll bring the water to you.”

The stone slab was clean.

And not dirty.

The young wife sitting there wouldn’t get her skirt dirty.
