Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 748: Chapter 748: Somewhat Curious

Walked up and signed for the package.

Seeing the sender’s name on it, she was stunned; it was Ding Hongye.

She couldn’t believe it, that young girl actually sent her something. She must be doing well now. After all, she was taken away by a Jeep that day. Presumably, the person who picked her up must be from her mother’s side of the family.

Carrying the package towards the small courtyard, even if she took it to the Tubular Building, she would have to move it back to the courtyard in a few days. Now that she had something, she might as well take it directly to the courtyard.

Just as she was about to reach the gate, she saw a few kids crouching with their butts sticking out, peeking into the courtyard.

Yunyi approached, lightly coughing: ”What are you doing?”

The kids were startled by the sound and all turned their heads to look over.

Yunyi immediately recognized two of them as being from the Qi Family; their clothes were so dirty that their colors were almost unrecognizable.

She couldn’t understand why Auntie Qi had time to gossip all day but didn’t have time to clean up her kids a bit.

However, she had never seen these two kids’ mother, which piqued her curiosity.

The kids, seeing it was Yunyi, scattered and ran away.

Yunyi naturally smelled the fragrance in the courtyard and opened the door to go in, asking towards the kitchen: ”Jiayuan, what delicious stuff are you making? It smells so good.”

Huo Jiayuan came out from the kitchen with a spatula: ”Fourth Sister-in-law, you’re in for a treat today. My brother brought back a piece of beef this afternoon, and I’m stewing it.”

Yunyi walked over, smiling: ”You’ve tempted all the kids in the residential compound.”

Huo Jiayuan, hearing this, glanced towards the courtyard gate but saw no one.

Yunyi laughed: ”I yelled, and they all ran away.”

Huo Jiayuan then noticed the package in Yunyi’s hand: ”Who sent the package?”

Yunyi placed the package on the table next to the kitchen wall: ”It’s from a patient I treated before.”

Huo Jiayuan blurted out: ”Is it a man or a woman?”

Yunyi flicked her forehead: ”What are you thinking?”

She then pointed to where the sender’s name was: ”See for yourself.”

Huo Jiayuan suddenly remembered the food on the stove: ”My food, my food.”

She quickly jogged over to the stove and stirred the dish a few times: ”We’ll eat when my brother gets back.”

Yunyi responded and opened the package on the table, revealing a cashmere sweater inside. Such things were rare now, and she thought: This is too generous.

Beneath it was a letter, which said Ding Hongye learned about her upcoming wedding from a classmate, and mentioned she was now living in Hai City with her mother’s family, who treated her very well.

The cashmere sweater was bought at the Hai City Department Store as a wedding gift for her, hoping she would accept it. The letter also included her current address, asking her to write back when she had time, and once again expressing gratitude for her help back then.

After reading the letter, Yunyi’s mind was filled with images of Ding Hongye. With the care of her family, the ugly duckling had long transformed into a swan. She was genuinely happy for her.

Huo Jiayuan saw the cashmere sweater in Yunyi’s hand: ”Fourth Sister-in-law, this sweater is perfect for you to wear at your wedding. The color is just right.”

She reached out to touch it but then pulled her hand back quickly, thinking it might be oily.

Just as the two sisters-in-law were talking, they heard someone push the front door open.

Yunyi peeked outside and saw Huo Jingrui coming in with a fish weighing about two pounds: ”Where did the fish come from?”
