Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 935: Chapter 936: Birds of a Feather Flock Together

Jiang Jingya didn’t stop them since the reason given was quite reasonable.

Just after sending them off and returning indoors, Yunyi was seen coming down the stairs with a handbag.

Jiang Jingya laughed aloud: ”Yiyi, nicely done.”

Yunyi, thinking of her doubts, then said: ”Mom, Jingrui, why is the Third Sister-in-law always targeting me? I feel there’s definitely some hidden truth here.”

Although Jiang Jingya hadn’t thought much of it, she knew it was wise to be cautious: ”Jingrui, keep an eye out and see if there’s anything fishy going on.”

Huo Jingrui nodded: ”Alright, I’ll have someone investigate.”

Yunyi noticed that neither Huo Jiayuan nor Lu Licheng were back yet and said: ”Mom, we don’t know what time Jiayuan and the others will return, why don’t you come with us? It’s not far, just at the state-owned restaurant near the compound.”

Jiang Jingya gave her son a thumbs-up: ”I knew it, you’d offer them a ride. Son, you’re too sly.”

If they really gave them a lift, they’d have to get off not far from the compound gate, which would save them the walk from the Huo Family to the bus stop. If that happened, wouldn’t Shen Qiuye and her mother get terribly annoyed?

Truly, birds of a feather flock together, the daughter-in-law is no less of a match, they’re really well-suited.

At that moment, Huo Jiayuan came in: ”Did I return right on time?”

Jiang Jingya saw the look on her daughter’s face and understood she had a good time going out this afternoon: ”Yes, yes, you timed it just right. Where’s Licheng?”

We went out this afternoon and saw someone delivering beef to the state-run restaurant not far from the compound. Licheng knows the chef and got him to reserve two portions, and he went to pick them up.

After saying this, she gestured to Huo Jingrui and Yunyi: ”Aren’t you in a hurry?”

Huo Jingrui replied: ”The car hasn’t come back yet.”

Jiang Jingya remembered the previous event and burst into laughter, slapping her thigh: ”Son, you really are, how should I even commend you?”

Yunyi was infected by it as well and laughed, her own man was really quite cunning. How did he even offer a ride with no car?

Perhaps just walking out of the compound would fulfill the meaning of ’giving a ride.’

Huo Jingrui didn’t say a word, just watched his mom and wife laugh.

Huo Jiayuan reacted and hurriedly asked: ”Brother, what are Mom and Fourth Sister-in-law laughing about?”

Before Huo Jingrui could speak, Jiang Jingya and Yunyi, who had laughed enough, recounted the earlier happenings at home to Huo Jiayuan, who burst into laughter too: ”They’re practically asking for trouble.”

Jiang Jingya, collecting her smile, said: ”If it weren’t for the fact that your Third Sister-in-law is pregnant, I would have driven her away already.”

Just about to say something, the sound of a car stopping outside was heard: ”Your dad is back, don’t delay. Hurry up so you don’t keep people waiting.”

Huo Jingrui nodded, took Yunyi by the hand, and went out the door.

Yunyi smiled and greeted Huo Shanhe who was walking into the courtyard: ”Dad, you’re back?”

Huo Shanhe smiled and nodded in response: ”You guys heading out?”

Huo Jingrui quickly replied: ”Yes.”

Huo Shanhe naturally knew his son was joining a dinner event tonight: ”Alright, the time is getting late, hurry over. Take the car, it’s convenient in case you need it.”

Huo Jingrui didn’t expect his mom to be so generous today: ”Dad, don’t worry, I’ll fill up the tank for you later.”

Upon hearing this, Huo Shanhe didn’t object, just waved them on and turned back into the house.
