Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 946 - 949: Will He Be Disciplined?

When the people dispersed, they returned to the Lü family.

Listening to the crackling sounds from next door, they shook their heads, looking annoyed.

After they sat down again, Deputy Lü said in a low voice, ”Being neighbors with them is like having bad luck for eight lifetimes, there’s never a day of peace. If it’s not Luo Xiaofang scolding those two daughters, it’s her son Qiao Fugui bullying the two sisters, or someone else coming over to seek justice.”

Huo Jingrui handed a bun to Yunyi: ”Isn’t it the result of Commander Qiao condoning them? He clearly knows his wife’s temperament, so why doesn’t he restrain her more? Isn’t it because he harbors selfish motives?”

As for the selfish motives he mentioned, everyone present naturally understood what he meant.

Now that trouble arose, he took it out on his wife and children, which is looked down upon. Why didn’t he do anything earlier?

Wan Ruhua pushed a dish towards Yunyi: ”Sister-in-law, don’t just eat buns, have some vegetables.”

Yunyi smiled and thanked her: ”Sister, just call me Yunyi, it feels more intimate.”

Wan Ruhua laughed heartily when she heard Yunyi say this: ”Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

Indeed, if you shout ’sister-in-law’ in the family quarters, probably half the women would turn their heads. Better to call her Yunyi.

Yunyi asked, ”Will Commander Qiao receive any punishment because of this incident?”

Deputy Regimental Commander Lü picked up a bun: ”Although it’s the families who made the mistake, this time it’s too serious, and Luo Xiaofang and Qiao Baogui have caused trouble in the family quarters frequently, and have grudges with many family members. Commander Qiao will likely face disciplinary action.”

After saying this, he looked at his wife: ”Ruhua, Commander Gong is already on his way back, at the latest he’ll return to the unit by tomorrow morning.”

Wan Ruhua heard this and said, ”That’s great, Lili can rest assured when he’s back. No matter how well we take care of her, we’re still outsiders. This incident scared her.”

After that, they didn’t continue discussing the matter. After all, gossiping behind others’ backs isn’t very good.

After eating, Yunyi helped to clean up the dishes, then bade farewell to Deputy Regimental Commander Lü and his wife and returned to her own courtyard.

Yunyi thought of the matter of hosting: ”Jingrui, Sister-in-law Lü said that when new people move in, they should host a gathering. How have you arranged it?”

Huo Jingrui thought for a moment: ”I have to start training tomorrow, handling it by yourself might be too tiring. How about we wait a few days until I’m on leave?”

Yunyi waved her hand: ”I can ask Sister-in-law Lü to help me, it won’t be too exhausting. I think it’s better not to delay too long, the sooner we host, the sooner it’s done, and it avoids speculation.”

Huo Jingrui naturally knew his wife’s capabilities: ”You rest one more day tomorrow, and we can host the day after.”

Yunyi did not object, it was perfect timing to prepare tomorrow: ”Approximately how many people will come?”

Huo Jingrui’s popularity in the unit was good, he thought for a moment: ”How about we host at the canteen, provide some ingredients, and have them help cook?”

Yunyi waved her hand: ”Let’s not. It’s just this once, don’t worry about me being too busy. I’ll stew the main dishes in advance and take them out when needed.”

Hearing this, Huo Jingrui slapped his forehead: ”How did I forget about that? Alright, we’ll host at home, but we’ll have to prepare for about six tables.”

Yunyi was surprised at the number: ”I didn’t expect my Jingrui to have such a good network.”

Seeing her playful look, Huo Jingrui couldn’t help but smile: ”Well, look at who your man is.”

The two laughed together, then leaned against each other and started chatting about the people and events in the family quarters.
