Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 924 - 925: This Mess Makes Me Feel Guilty

Yunyi took out the return gift prepared by Ye Bingyu: ”Jingrui, since you don’t plan to stay overnight, you should head back early to avoid worrying your parents.”

Even though their situation was special, today was the return visit day, and going back too late would indeed be inappropriate.

She didn’t want the nosy people in the compound to use it as gossip. She didn’t want her daughter to be bullied.

Huo Jingrui originally wanted to say ’it’s fine,’ but Yunyi thought that there seemed to be a custom to return to the husband’s family before sunset on the return visit day, and said: ”Mom thinks things through. Anyway, I’ll be in Beijing from now on, so I’ll come back whenever I’m free.”

Ye Bingyu beckoned Ye Wenhui and Ye Wenhao, the brothers, to move the return gifts into the car: ”If you’re not busy, come back often. Your dad will make something delicious for you.”

Yunyi and Huo Jingrui responded in unison: ”Okay.”

At this moment, Ye Wenhui’s fiancée, Xiang Anxin, walked over: ”Yunyi, we’re also going on holiday soon, we should hang out together then.”

Yunyi really liked this future sister-in-law: ”Sure, I’ll definitely look for you then.”

After saying goodbye to everyone in the Ye Family, the two of them got into the car to head back.

Huo Jingrui drove steadily: ”Yi’er, let’s have lunch outside tomorrow, I’ll introduce you to some of my buddies. In the evening, there’s another dinner, mostly with comrades who have shifted careers to Beijing.”

He thought that after returning to the team, sometimes when he would be on missions outside Beijing, it’d be good to know who to seek help from in case of any issue.

Yunyi turned her head to look at Huo Jingrui in profile and teased: ”Alright, I was just thinking I’d like to see how wide your network really is.”

Huo Jingrui touched his nose: ”Although I can’t guarantee you’ll walk unchallenged in Beijing, I won’t let anyone bully you if something happens.”

Yunyi smiled, gazing out the window: ”With my current reach, if I get bullied, I might as well not try to make my way.”

Huo Jingrui turned to look at the person beside him in the passenger seat: ”Without the status from the previous lifetimes, won’t you feel uneasy?”

Yunyi hadn’t expected him to ask this: ”You know, I don’t like being constrained, so an ordinary life is more suitable for me.”

Huo Jingrui had a smile on his lips: ”Okay, then I’ll live an ordinary life with you, watch the sun rise and set with you.”

Yunyi suddenly remembered something: ”By the way, is there a place to grow vegetables on the base?”

Huo Jingrui replied with a light ’hmm’: ”Yes, but it’s a bit far from the residential area. I haven’t claimed a plot from logistics yet. If you want, I’ll apply for one tomorrow.”

Yunyi thought about how on weekends, they still would want to spend some time back at the family quarters of the base, having such a piece of land could help cover up the space: ”Of course we’d want it, let’s plant a little of everything.”

Huo Jingrui naturally understood Yunyi’s intent: ”Alright, we’ll do as you say.”

When they arrived back at the Huo Family, they didn’t expect to find Lu Licheng at home.

Moreover, he was wearing an apron, acting like he was at home.

Huo Jingrui looked at his mom, asking with his eyes: What’s going on?

Before Jiang Jingya could speak, Huo Jiayuan, who came rushing down from upstairs, explained to them: ”Fourth Brother, Fourth Sister-in-law, you’re back. Let me tell you, something happened at Auntie Zhang’s house.”

Yunyi glanced at her mother-in-law and, seeing her nod, asked, ”What happened?”

Huo Jiayuan spoke angrily: ”Previously, Auntie Zhang took home the chocolates mom gave her and presented them to her little granddaughter as a gift. But today, we received word that the child from her daughter’s neighbor’s house knocked her little granddaughter down the stairs while fighting for the chocolate.”

Jiang Jingya’s face didn’t look good either: ”This incident, it makes me feel guilty too.”
