Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 83: Chapter 83 No Respect at All

Du Yuhua quickly spoke up, ”Chu Zhiqing, why did you really give him the candy?”

Yunyi laughed. ”Could I have pretended to give it? The child’s arm is fine now. It’s getting dark and the road is difficult to navigate, so hurry and carry your child back.”

Holding her son, Du Yuhua felt very awkward and said, ”How can I accept this?”

Yunyi looked at the child, her thoughts drifting to her past two lives. She reached out and gently pinched his cheek. ”It’s nothing, just a piece of candy.”

Du Yuhua coughed lightly. ”Um, how much is the consultation fee?”

Seeing her expression, Yunyi knew what she was thinking but replied ambiguously, ”Your son is very cute. There’s no need for a consultation fee.”

Du Yuhua was stunned. ”How could I possibly accept that?”

Yunyi smiled at the child in Du Yuhua’s arms. ”I tend to treat patients based on a sense of affinity.”

Seeing the smile on Yunyi’s face, Du Yuhua immediately understood. She looked at her son. ”Son, thank Chu Zhiqing right away.”

The child, whose speech was still a bit unclear, said, ”Thank.”

After a few more pleasantries, Yunyi, feeling hungry, didn’t plan to detain them any longer. ”It’s alright, you should head back now. Don’t let your family worry.”

Du Yuhua, holding her son, thanked Yunyi once more and then left with him.

However, she had already formed a plan in her heart.

「On the train」

When it was dinnertime, Ye Wenjuan saw Ye Wenhui heading to the dining car to buy food. ”Cousin, could you get me a portion too?”

Ye Wenhui was not Ye Wenyue; she wouldn’t be fooled by such petty tricks. ”What would you like to eat?”

Seeing that Ye Wenhui hadn’t refused, Ye Wenjuan said, ”I’m not picky. Whatever you get is fine.”

Ye Wenhui simply held her hand out in front of Ye Wenjuan. ”Hand it over.”

Ye Wenjuan looked up and asked, ”What?”

Ye Wenhui looked at her with a half-smile. ”How am I supposed to carry the food without a lunchbox?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Wenjuan quickly took a lunchbox from her bag. Inside, there was also a mixed-grain steamed bun, and she looked a bit awkward.

But, being thick-skinned, she directly took out the mixed-grain steamed bun, put it in her bag, and handed over the lunchbox.

After taking it, Ye Wenhui stretched out her hand again. ”Good thing food coupons aren’t needed on the train; you just need to give me the money.”

Hearing this, Ye Wenjuan’s mood instantly soured, but she maintained her smile. ”Cousin, could you front me the money for now? I’ll pay you back when we get off the train.”

Ye Wenhui pushed the lunchbox back to Ye Wenjuan. ”You know our family just returned to Beijing not long ago. There are many expenses involved in settling in. I didn’t bring much money with me to the countryside, so I have to budget carefully.”

She thought that would be the end of it, but then Ye Wenhui added, ”You still haven’t repaid the money you borrowed from Wen Yue two years ago. I can’t wait that long.”

Without caring about Ye Wenjuan’s expression, Ye Wenhui finished speaking, turned, and walked off with her companions.

The surrounding people looked at Ye Wenjuan with disdain. Many of them pointed and whispered about her, making Ye Wenjuan wish she could chase after Ye Wenhui and tear her to pieces.

She had never expected Ye Wenhui to treat her this way. She lowered her head to hide the murderous glint in her eyes, swearing in her heart that she would make Ye Wenhui pay dearly.

She had grown up with Ye Wenhui and Ye Wenyue. All of them were granddaughters of the Ye Family, yet her life was starkly different from theirs. At home, Ye Wenhui and Ye Wenyue were treated like princesses. In contrast, she constantly faced either her mother’s lamentations or her father’s indifference. While they spent their days playing, apart from attending school and doing homework, she had to act like a little servant girl as soon as she got home. She was responsible for washing clothes, cooking, cleaning the house, and even looking after her younger siblings. All of this left her feeling incredibly resentful.
