Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 685: Chapter 685: Incredulous

Feeling anxious for her daughter-in-law, she switched her thoughts, thinking after all that so many famous doctors couldn’t cure the illness: ”How long has it been sent over?”

While busy with his work, Huo Jingrui replied, ”Arrived just a little before and after Jiayuan did. Brother Kairong has work to do, so he brought his old neighbor, Grandma Su, over. She’s great at handicrafts and cooking, and Jiayuan has been learning from her lately. Next time you go back, Mom, you’ll be able to eat food cooked by your daughter herself.”

Jiang Jingya was a bit incredulous upon hearing this: ”Really, your sister is learning to cook from someone else?”

After all, that’s her weak point, practically a kitchen disaster without a grain of talent, and her daughter had never cooked before, so she asked her son to confirm it again.

Huo Jingrui laughed, ”It’s absolutely true. I’ve tried a few times, and although she hasn’t learned the true essence of Grandma Su’s cooking, it’s at least edible. With time, I believe she will make progress.”

Thinking about what she had arranged before, she asked, ”Mom, any news from the Du Family recently?”

Lately, a lot indeed has been happening with the Du Family. Hearing her son’s question, she felt sure he had a hand in it, but she knew she couldn’t speak directly over the phone: ”A lot has happened, indeed. That girl’s family has gone to the Du Family and caused a few scenes.”

The father and son’s work was affected because of this. I suspect that, due to the pressure, Du Shujian might end up taking the same path as his father. I’m actually a bit looking forward to it; won’t it become a laughingstock?”

The only difference was that Du Chuanqin was tricked by Zhang Xiaolu after losing his memory back then, while Du Shujian got caught in a setup now. But the result was the same, going through life muddle-headed.

Knowing her daughter was doing well over there, she felt relieved. ”Since Jiayuan is willing to stay there, let it be for now. But as her brother, you still need to keep an eye on her.”

After offering a few more reminders, she hung up the phone.

That day, Yunyi was at work when she suddenly smelled an odd odor, and she frowned directly, looking at the nurse assisting beside her, ”Where’s the bad smell coming from?”

The young nurse glanced around the room and, upon opening the door, realized the smell was coming from outside. A young girl stood there, with others retreating three meters away while covering their mouths and noses.

The young nurse turned back, ”There’s a girl outside the clinic room.”

Yunyi thought for a moment, ”Check if she has an appointment with me.”

The young nurse held her breath and walked out, pointing to the appointment slip in the girl’s hand.

After confirming it was indeed an appointment with Doctor Chu, she hurried back into the clinic room, panting, ”Doctor Chu, it’s an appointment with you.”

Yunyi glanced outside the door, ”Let her be the next one to come in. Once we finish checking her, she can leave, or else everyone will suffer.”

Though the young nurse had an unpleasant expression, she knew Doctor Chu was right. She had to put on a brave face and walk to the doorway, ”You come in first, Doctor Chu will see you.”

The people waiting outside immediately protested, ”I was here before her, how can she skip the line?”

Covering her mouth, the young nurse loudly explained, ”Let’s finish seeing her first, then when she leaves, the smell will disperse naturally.”

Everyone thought about it and agreed. If she stayed there, everyone else wouldn’t be able to stand it.

The young nurse gestured for the girl to enter.

Yunyi put on a thick gauze mask and tossed a new one to the young nurse. Then she started taking the girl’s pulse while asking, ”How long have you had this smell on you?”

The girl replied emotionlessly, ”Three months.”

Yunyi asked again, ”Have you been treated before?”
