Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 1023 - 1027: Living the Life You Want

Of course, Su Yuemei would not oppose it. After all, the Geng family is her benefactor. If it weren’t for the Geng family’s intervention, she wouldn’t still be in this world: "I’ll follow your arrangements."

Yuan Zining frowned, "What about me?"

Huo Jingrui lightly tapped his forehead with chopsticks, "Eat your food. You’ll stay here. In a few days, I have to go to the regiment during the day. You can stay at home and accompany your teacher-aunt."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Zining smiled, "Sure, I’ll take good care of my teacher-aunt."

At this point, Yunyi interjected, "Someone will come to bring your holiday homework tomorrow. You should plan your time well and not just play around."

Yuan Zining nodded, "Got it."

After eating, Yuemei went to the kitchen to clean the bowls and chopsticks, and the others moved to the living room.

Jiang Jingya finally asked, "Son, your comrades have long been back. Why have you been delayed for so many days?"

"Mom, Yi’er, I’m sorry for making you worry. I encountered an unexpected situation and had to participate in another task, which is why I was late returning. However, I can’t tell you the specifics."

Jiang Jingya and Yunyi naturally understood the confidentiality rules.

Jiang Jingya nodded and changed the subject, "Were you injured?"

Huo Jingrui waved his hand, "Just a few minor scratches, nothing else."

Seeing Yunyi looking him over, he couldn’t help but say, "If you don’t believe me, ask your daughter-in-law tomorrow."

As soon as he said this, Yunyi’s face turned red as she slapped him on the arm, "What are you talking about?"

Jiang Jingya also gave her son a sideways glance. Seeing that her son was fine, she decided not to be in the way, "Zining, let’s go next door to visit the Lü family."

Yuan Zining was naturally happy, "Coming."

As Jiang Jingya reached the door, she remembered something and reminded, "Yiyi is pregnant now, so don’t fool around."

After saying that, she hurriedly pulled Yuan Zining out the door.

Now it was Huo Jingrui’s turn to blush, although his face didn’t show it.

Yunyi glanced at him and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Seeing her like this, Huo Jingrui pulled her into his arms, "You dare to laugh."

With that, a kiss fell. He had missed his wife terribly over the days, worried about her severe pregnancy reactions, worried about her worrying about him, worried about her not eating well, not resting well, just all kinds of worries and longing.

Now he could finally hold her, "Yi’er, did you miss me?"

Yunyi murmured, "Yes."

Then added, "Even though I knew you would come back safely, I still worried about you, Jingrui. Promise me, when you go on missions in the future, think more about us. I just want you safe, to be with us for a long time."

Huo Jingrui naturally understood her meaning, "I understand. I’ll keep it in mind and spend the days you want with you."

Yunyi leaned against him, touching her belly, "Okay."

Then she briefly recounted the events of these past days to Jingrui.

Upon learning what Third Sister-in-law Duan Zhuangyu did, "She really has some nerve, daring to do something like this. Impressive."

Yunyi knew that Jingrui was angry now, and the consequences would be serious.

In the hospital, Duan Zhuangyu woke up very late. After learning from her mother, Shen Qiuye, that she had miscarried, she said, "It’s over, how could something happen at such a critical moment? Isn’t this...asking for my life?"

Huo Gaodi, who had just come in with a thermos, heard Duan Zhuangyu’s words and completely gave up. For someone who only thought about themselves, it was better to let it go.
