Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 731: Chapter 731: Do I Have to Live at Her Mercy?

Yunyi, being someone who has been through it, naturally could see Lu Licheng’s genuine intentions towards Jiayuan, otherwise, he wouldn’t have traveled all this way to come here: ”After all, this is a lifelong matter for you. It’s good that you have it clear in your heart.”

Huo Jiayuan felt her mind was clearer than ever before: ”I have made up my mind. After mom and dad come here to attend your and Fourth Brother’s wedding, I’ll go back to Beijing with them.”

After a pause, she continued, ”Brother Lu San is older than my Fourth Brother by a year, and I’m not that young anymore. Since he has feelings and I acknowledge them, certain things should be put on the agenda.”

Yunyi, although supportive of her and Lu Licheng’s relationship, still reminded her, ”A girl should still be somewhat reserved. Since he has come all the way here, he might be even more anxious than you. Some things you know in your heart, but still, let him bring them up.”

Huo Jiayuan, hearing Yunyi’s words, realized she was being somewhat impetuous, and couldn’t help but hold Yunyi’s arm: ”I understand.”

After speaking, she couldn’t help but laugh. She was three years older than Fourth Sister-in-law, yet always felt she couldn’t be as calm in situations.

When Huo Jingrui returned, he saw the aunt and sister-in-law leaning together in the living room and couldn’t help but smile: ”Yi’er, let’s go, I’ll take you over.”

Beijing, Qin Family

Wu Lijuan entered the house carrying large and small bags: ”Oh, help me out, I’m absolutely exhausted.”

Qin Jianghui ran out of the room: ”Mom, you’re back?”

He smiled as he stepped forward to take the items from his mother’s hands: ”Mom, you’ve worked hard these past days. I’ll give you a shoulder massage later.”

After saying this, he also poured a glass of water: ”Mom, have a glass of water first.”

As he handed over the glass, his eyes were glued to the large and small parcels: ”Mom, how much more do we need to buy?

Yueyue told me to come back and let you know that she’s off tomorrow and will accompany you on the shopping trip?”

Wu Lijuan rolled her eyes: ”As if Long Yueyue could be so kind-hearted? Don’t flatter her. She’s only worried that what I buy won’t suit her taste, that’s why she wants to come along, right?”

To actually take Long Yueyue shopping would be ridiculous. Her spoiled nature would drive her crazy!

Initially thinking her family’s condition was good, with her dad working at the Ministry of Metallurgy, having this connection would make it easy for her son to change jobs in the future.

That’s why she wanted to break off the engagement with the Chu Family and chose Long Yueyue, but you don’t know what you’re getting until you get it. Now she knows that you can’t just look at the surface. Long Yueyue is really too spoiled, not even considering her future mother-in-law.

But the families had already met, and the wedding date was set. Even if she regretted it now, it wouldn’t help. She would have to silently endure this loss.”

Qin Jianghui also knew that during this time Long Yueyue had contradicted his mom several times, but what could he do? Yueyue was spoiled since childhood, and indeed lacked consideration for others in her words and actions: ”Mom, Yueyue’s just sharp-tongued but not malicious. Just the other day, she told me that her aunt would bring you a wool coat from Hai City. Please be generous and don’t hold it against a little girl.”

Wu Lijuan, although slightly appeased by this, still didn’t feel too kindly as she remembered her infuriating words from a few days ago, gulping down a glass of water: ”Stop trying to charm me. She’s not even through the door yet and already embarrasses me in front of so many people. What will it be like after she’s married in? Will I need to live by her moods?”
