Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 254: Chapter 254 Arrival and Settlement

Yunyi stepped inside to take a look. The small courtyard was an independent unit, much like the house she had previously rented in Songling Village. While the yard wasn’t as large as the one there, it did have a backyard. After looking around, she thought, It might be a good idea to find some people to help build a woodshed.

Both the courtyard and the inside of the house had been cleaned, so she could move in directly without having to tidy up again.

Just as they were thinking of going out to move their things, Zheng Xuewen arrived with some helpers. ”I’ve come over several times this morning,” he said, ”and I finally saw the car return.”

After introducing Yunyi to everyone, Qiao Wenyu shouted to them, ”Come on, everyone, lend a hand and get things properly settled! I’ve brought back some meat; we’ll have an extra meal for you all later.”

As soon as they heard there would be meat for the extra meal, they all cheered, ”Alright then! We’ll make sure Doctor Chu is all settled in perfectly.”

Many hands make light work, and soon, all her belongings had been moved inside.

The cabinets and tables were all put in place in one go. Even the kitchen stove was set up and ready to be lit.

Qiao Wenyu had someone send the meat to the main canteen, then led the remaining people to help Yunyi build the woodshed in the backyard.

Wei Zijia, having received the news, also brought over some educated youth. ”Yunyi, you’ve finally moved in! Now I can come visit you often.”

Finished speaking, she quickly introduced the person behind her. ”This is Song Jiayao, my high school classmate and best friend.”

Then, pointing to the two female educated youth behind her, she added, ”This is Wu Xueli from the telephone office, also from Beijing. And that’s He Yushan from the agricultural tool room; she’s from the same residential compound as Qiao Wenyu and the others.”

Wei Zijia had initially only planned to bring Song Jiayao along but ran into Wu Xueli and He Yushan on the way. They insisted on coming, and since they would have to meet eventually anyway, Wei Zijia didn’t refuse.

He Yushan frowned slightly. ”Zijia, is she the one replacing Doctor Ji?”

Wei Zijia exclaimed excitedly, ”Yes! Don’t be fooled by Yunyi’s young age; her medical skills are top-notch.”

Yunyi didn’t offer much of an explanation either, as she was busy tidying up things in the house.

Just as she finished, Qiao Wenyu’s voice came from the courtyard, ”The woodshed is done, and we’ve moved all the firewood in. Do you want to come take a look? If anything’s not right, we can still fix it while there are plenty of people here.”

Yunyi went to take a look. The construction was well-done; it was clear they’d put a lot of effort into it. Even under heavy snow, it wouldn’t collapse.

In the kitchen, they had boiled a pot of water to test the stove, which was now perfect for everyone to wash their hands.

Yunyi brought out soap and towels. ”Please wash your hands. You’ve all worked so hard.”

After that, she turned back into the house and brought out a bag of milk candies. ”I didn’t prepare much for today, but I’ll treat everyone to a meal another day.”

She pressed two pieces of milk candy into each person’s hand. ”Have some candy first,” she said.

This gesture of giving away half a bag of milk candies made everyone quite happy.

Although many of them weren’t lacking in sweets, this generosity made Yunyi seem like someone who knew how to handle social situations, was worthy of friendship, and was a magnanimous person.

Only He Yushan muttered quietly, ”She really knows how to curry favor. She just arrived and is already working on building connections.”

Although He Yushan spoke softly, Wei Zijia still heard her. ”What’s that supposed to mean?”

Seeing Wei Zijia’s face turn cold, He Yushan quickly explained, ”I was just talking nonsense; don’t be angry.”

Wei Zijia wasn’t close to He Yushan to begin with. If it weren’t for He Yushan being from the same residential compound as Zheng Xuewen and Qiao Wenyu, she would have never interacted with her.

She already disliked He Yushan, and hearing those words, Wei Zijia immediately understood. She and He Yushan were not cut from the same cloth. It would be better to limit their interactions in the future, lest she be betrayed one day without even realizing it.
