Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 714: Chapter 714: Just to Give You a Surprise

Huo Jiayuan didn’t crowd around her brother and sister-in-law, she returned to her own room instead; she had enough sense for that.

Huo Jingrui pulled Yunyi into their prepared wedding room: ”Yi’er, in just over a month, you’ll turn eighteen....”

There was no need for him to continue; Yunyi already knew what he was going to say: ”We’ve already talked about this....”

She didn’t finish her sentence before Huo Jingrui pulled her into his arms: ”I wish tomorrow were the day, so you could rightfully be on my household register and become my legal wife.”

Yunyi leaned into his embrace, finding his words very comforting. Even though they had lived together for two lifetimes, Jingrui was not someone who often spoke sweet words. He always anticipated what she wanted, doing things first and then speaking: ”Aren’t you tired of it?”

Huo Jingrui naturally understood the meaning behind her words and held her even tighter: ”As long as you’re my Yi’er, I’ll never get tired of it.”

The two of them snuggled closely for a while before Huo Jingrui softly said: ”When the time comes, we’ll first go get our marriage certificate, then have lunch with a few tables at the factory canteen. We won’t bring Mom and Dad over just yet. After you finish your college entrance exams, we’ll go back to Beijing and hold a ceremony there. Does that sound good to you?”

Yunyi didn’t have any objections: ”Sure.”

It’s just that this was what they had in mind, but they feared they might not be able to make time due to work.

Little did they know, the two elders, upon hearing their son’s decision, had already started planning, and had made sure to clear their schedules for those days.

Ever since the wedding report for their son had been received, they had told the family, just waiting for Yunyi to turn eighteen so they could get their marriage certificate.

They knew how much their son cherished the young woman, so naturally, they wouldn’t hold him back. Besides, Jiang Jingya really liked Yunyi. Since they had only given birth to the two children, no matter how busy they were, they had to attend their son’s wedding. They couldn’t let others gossip and make their daughter-in-law uncomfortable.

Huo Jingrui thought of the custom-made red wool coat: ”Yi’er, I ordered a wool coat for you earlier. You’re off tomorrow, so let’s go pick it up together. If anything doesn’t fit, there’s still time to make adjustments.”

Yunyi looked at him: ”When did that happen? You didn’t even ask me to get measured?”

Huo Jingrui’s lips curved into a smile: ”I have your measurements memorized by heart. Just to be safe, I took one of your frequently worn clothes to ensure it would be a surprise for you.”

Yunyi playfully feigned annoyance: ”If it doesn’t fit, see how I’ll deal with you.”

Huo Jingrui chuckled and nodded: ”Fine, you can deal with me however you want then.”

Realizing it was getting late, Yunyi remembered the envelope from Gui Kairong, opened it, and took out the contents, revealing 1,500 yuan and several vouchers, including a bicycle ticket, a sewing machine ticket, and a television ticket.

Without looking further, Yunyi glanced up at Huo Jingrui: ”Isn’t this too valuable?”

If it were just one valuable voucher, it’d be fine, but with so many, she felt a bit embarrassed to accept them.

Huo Jingrui looked over the vouchers in her hand and saw there was also an electric fan ticket, along with some meat coupons and grain coupons, which were all national general use ones, quite rare to obtain.

Huo Jingrui thought for a moment: ”Actually, aside from the television ticket, I’ve prepared the rest, but since they’ve gifted them, you should accept them. After all, Sister Kailan has spent a lot seeking medical advice everywhere for her illness, spending a lot of money without seeing improvement. Now that you’ve helped relieve a major burden for them, they’re naturally very grateful.”

Yunyi considered for a moment: ”Alright then, since they’ve given us such significant gifts, I’ll send Sister Kailan some ginseng nourishing pills later to make sure her health gets nice and strong.”
