Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 999: Chapter 1003: Beating Someone Up

Hearing what her mother-in-law said, Yunyi hurriedly spoke up to stop her: ”Mom, no need. Other than being sleepy, I just feel a bit nauseous in the mornings, and I can’t stand the smell of oil and smoke. The food in the cafeteria is pretty good, I’ll just eat there. These days Zining is here with me, he keeps me company, you don’t have to worry about me.”

Yunyi didn’t think her mother-in-law was just putting on a show. If she didn’t stop her, she was afraid her mother-in-law could have Auntie Zhang packed up and sent over today.

She really didn’t want one more person at home making herself uncomfortable.

Only after all kinds of worried reminders from this good mother-in-law Jiang Jingya did she finally hang up the phone.

Previously, Huo Jingrui had bragged plenty in the compound about her taking the college entrance exam, but the admission letter still hadn’t arrived. It wasn’t hard to imagine how much pressure her in-laws and sister-in-law must be under.

Yunyi was afraid they’d get too anxious, so she specially called her mother-in-law to put her mind at ease. After all, people in the military family compound had been making all kinds of snide remarks behind her back these last few days, which was really getting on her nerves.

As for her own family, aside from close relatives, her parents probably hadn’t made a big deal about her taking the exam, so it shouldn’t trouble them too much.

She walked back lost in thought, and happened to catch someone talking about her: ”I’m telling you, that woman just looks like she has no blessings. Deputy Regimental Commander Huo is probably doomed this time. Tsk tsk, they’ve barely been married and if Deputy Regimental Commander Huo doesn’t make it back this time, she’ll be a widow at such a young age.”

Wan Ruhua, who had just stepped out of her house, happened to hear this: ”Luo Xiaofang, how can you dare say anything? Don’t forget your man is a soldier too. You really are...”

Before Wan Ruhua finished speaking, she saw a figure charge over from the opposite side.

She had just made out that it was Yunyi when her heart sank: ”Crap.”

Before she could say anything, Luo Xiaofang was kicked by Yunyi and her whole body arced through the air, flying straight into the Qiao Family courtyard.

But although Yunyi was angry, she still controlled her strength: ”Luo Xiaofang, I’ve really been giving you face, huh? Stirring up trouble in this compound every damn day—who gave you the guts to yap about other people’s business all the time, to take mocking other military families as your daily entertainment? Now you even dare to curse a serving officer—are you even human?

Don’t forget your man is a soldier too. This is a military family compound. What the hell do you think you are? Before, it was bad enough you didn’t act like a decent person—now you don’t even know how to talk like a human being?”

Still not satisfied, she strode into the Lü family courtyard and yanked the woman up from the ground: ”Who gave you the nerve to curse soldiers who are out there putting their lives on the line? I strongly suspect you’re a bad element sent by hostile forces to infiltrate the troops and stir up internal chaos. Otherwise, how could you be this ignorant, shameless, and fearless? Well? Explain yourself.”

Yunyi’s whole set of moves scared the group of military wives who had been gossiping just now. Those who had been about to step forward and chastise Yunyi all froze in their tracks.

While Yunyi was dealing with Luo Xiaofang, she didn’t miss the expressions on the faces of the people outside, and she also spotted Mrs. Du scurrying off.

Honestly, at the start she really was acting out of anger, but afterward it was deliberate.

Before, she hadn’t bothered with them because she felt it didn’t matter—whatever they said couldn’t really hurt her. But these people had gotten more and more out of line. Since that was the case, she might as well kill a chicken to scare the monkeys.

From now on, whoever dared to run their mouth, she’d just use her hands.

Very soon, Mrs. Du brought over the leaders from the unit. No one knew what she had said, but besides the regimental commanders and political commissars of First and Third Group, even Division Commander Du Tianming and Political Commissar Guan, that duo, had come along.

It was obvious Mrs. Du wanted to blow this up.
