Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 1069 - 1073: Who Knows If These Two Are Destined to Be Together

Gui Hongmei was a bit surprised to see the visitor, but still warmly greeted her: "Yan Fang, you’re here, come in and have a seat."

Yan Fang smiled and greeted everyone in the house one by one before sitting down.

Originally, she hadn’t planned to come over today, but the elderly Qi couple living next to the Yan family in the courtyard were relocating back to their hometown tomorrow. Once they left, who knew when they’d meet again, so she made a special trip this time.

As she passed by the Huo Family, for some reason, she just felt compelled to walk in.

They hadn’t exchanged many words when the study door opened.

Huo Gaodi was the first to come out, and he happened to make eye contact with Yan Fang: "Yan Fang, what brings you here?"

As soon as he said it, he realized it was a bit inappropriate, so he sheepishly added, "Happy New Year."

For a moment, everyone in the room was looking at them, and the atmosphere was rather awkward.

It was Huo Shanhe, who came out behind, who said, "Yan Fang, you’re here. It’s been a long time since you’ve visited us."

"Uncle Huo, Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year, is your family well?"

Yan Fang nodded: "All good."

Jiang Jingya, hearing the activity downstairs, also came down: "Yan Fang, are you back to see the Qi couple?"

Yan Fang replied with a smile, "Yes, I thought they would go back when it got warmer, but unexpectedly, something came up at their hometown, and they decided to leave tomorrow. I came over as soon as I got the news."

The Qi couple adored soft, gentle granddaughters, but among their three sons, and seven grandsons, they didn’t have a single granddaughter.

The elderly couple was very fond of Yan Fang, who lived next door to them, treating her like their own younger family member.

Jiang Jingya heard the news from the guests visiting today to pay New Year respects, so Yan Fang’s appearance at this time seemed quite normal.

Recalling the events of the past, Jiang Jingya couldn’t help but glance at Huo Gaodi.

Back then, she knew Yan Fang had feelings for Huo Gaodi.

But Huo Gaodi was too careless and didn’t notice Yan Fang’s special affection, and after that incident, they missed their chance.

She knew a little about Yan Fang’s situation, but didn’t know if they had any fate?

Jiang Jingya had the intention to matchmake them: "Gaodi, there are fruits from the south in the small storeroom, could you bring some out for Yan Fang to try?"

Huo Gaodi didn’t sense anything inappropriate: "Sure, I’ll go now."

Coming out of the small storeroom, he looked at the fruits in his hand and casually said: "You’re in luck; there’s some guava that you like."

As soon as he said that, everyone in the room turned to look at him.

Jiang Jingya reacted the quickest: "It’s rare that you remember Yan Fang likes this."

Huo Gaodi seemed to recall something too: "It’s rare to see such fresh... this time of year..."

He hadn’t finished speaking when his son burst out laughing: "Guava? Dad, that’s not very sanitary."

Everyone was momentarily stunned before bursting into laughter.

Sitting closest, Yunyi pulled the little guy over: "Xiaoyu, what your dad has in his hand is a kind of fruit, not ’chicken poop,’ it’s ’Guava.’

As she spoke, she wrote in his little hand: "This fruit has many names; some places call it ’Ba Le,’ ’Mu Zi,’ or ’Hua Nen,’ and others call it ’Fan Shi Liu.’ You ate it last night and didn’t you say it was delicious?"

This guava was a special produce, but Huo Jingrui had already thought of a reason, saying it was brought from Hainan by a comrade.

Yan Fang felt a bit embarrassed: "Such a rare fruit, it should be left for the children to eat."

Before she got married, she had been to Hainan with her grandfather and knew it wasn’t easy to ship these to Beijing.

Yunyi, understanding her mother-in-law’s intentions, smiled and said: "These are indeed rare, but they don’t store well. If they’re not eaten soon, they might go bad. You’re just lucky to catch them."

To avoid making her feel awkward, once the fruits were cut and served on the table, they offered them to her and also called the children to eat together.

It must be said that the Huo Family was quite sharp, and when Yan Fang was about to leave, everyone found an excuse to be busy, so naturally, He Gaodi ended up being the one to accompany Yan Fang out.
