Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 750: Chapter 750

Before Huo Jingrui could speak, Huo Jiayuan jumped in, ”Auntie Qi, didn’t you just come by a few days ago? How could you forget so quickly?”

Auntie Qi didn’t expect this girl to interfere, ”Oh my, that day, Vice Factory Director Huo wasn’t home, so I thought I should come by again.”

Huo Jiayuan wouldn’t indulge her, ”Auntie Qi, are you having yellow corn bread for dinner tonight?”｜

Auntie Qi thought she had finally found a topic. It was the perfect opportunity to give away the corn bread and conveniently bring a bowl of meat back—what a great deal.

But the next moment, she heard Huo Jiayuan say, ”I heard it just got steamed and is very sticky, but unfortunately, our family is allergic to it. Otherwise, we’d certainly like to try some from you, Auntie Qi.”

A moment ago, Auntie Qi was in high spirits, the next moment she was like an eggplant hit by frost.

She looked at the yellow corn bread in her hands, ”This corn meal is made from this year’s new corn, it’s very tasty. I’ve never heard of anyone being allergic to corn bread?”

She didn’t believe it in the slightest, but since they said so, and this was the Vice Factory Director Huo’s family, she couldn’t just force them to take it, could she?

Huo Jiayuan didn’t care what Auntie Qi thought; truthfully, she really couldn’t eat her food. Not to mention, just seeing Auntie Qi’s dirty fingernails made her lose her appetite.

Seeing Auntie Qi still hesitating to leave, ”Auntie Qi, your little grandson is out barefoot.”

As she spoke, she nudged her to look outside.

Huo Jiayuan wasn’t lying to her—somehow that child had come out with one bare foot. Although it wasn’t freezing, it was getting cold.

Auntie Qi couldn’t care about anything else now, and she jogged to the front gate, ”Xiaobao, where are your shoes? How did you come out barefoot?”

As she spoke, she set the bowl aside and picked up her grandson.

To be fair, even though Auntie Qi was a bit unkempt, she really was good to her grandchildren.

Seeing her leave, Huo Jiayuan quickly closed the gate and latched it, just in case Auntie Qi decided to come back.

But just as they sat down to eat, they heard Auntie Qi shout, ”Hey, give me back the corn bread.”

The three of them exchanged glances, and before they could say a word, they heard Auntie Qi’s next phrase, ”Whose darn dog still has the corn bread?”

She didn’t believe it in the slightest, but since they said so, and this was the Vice Factory Director Huo’s family, she couldn’t just force them to take it, could she?
