Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Arriving in High Spirits, Leaving Disappointed

Jiang Jingya’s face turned cold: "Zhuangyu, how can someone who claims to be a cultural worker say such things?"

Huo Shanhe also got angry at this moment: "Third brother’s wife, neither your Auntie Jiang nor I are dead yet. There’s no need for you to interfere in Old Four’s matters. We’ll let you know when we need you. If there’s nothing else, just go home."

After finishing, he headed towards the study.

Duan Zhuangyu, who had been married into the Huo Family for these years, was embarrassed for the first time by her father-in-law. She stood there feeling as awkward as possible.

When Huo Shanhe was about to open the study door, he turned around and looked at his eldest daughter-in-law: "Eldest daughter’s wife, Xiaodong is no longer young. Instead of worrying about unnecessary things, it would be better for you to focus on your son’s issues. As for Old Four’s matters, your Auntie Jiang and I will handle them, so you need not worry."

Gui Hongmei initially thought she had dodged a bullet and was feeling relieved, but she didn’t expect this: "Got it, Dad."

The old man spoke tactfully, but it was a warning to her. Fine, fine, from now on, I won’t get involved with the third sister-in-law, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. If my husband finds out, there might be another argument.

As a result, both came in high spirits but left disappointed.

Once outside the courtyard, Duan Zhuangyu realized: "Sis-in-law, what was this all about? Did we come here just to be scolded?"

Gui Hongmei said coldly: "Don’t call me for such matters in the future. What is all this about?"

Duan Zhuangyu felt like her sister-in-law was blaming her: "Sis-in-law, you didn’t say you didn’t want to come when we set out, now saying this isn’t appropriate, is it?"

Gui Hongmei originally just wanted to follow and watch the stepmother-in-law’s misfortune, but she ended up getting caught in the crossfire. Not in a good mood: "If it wasn’t for you speaking out of turn, would Father have thrown us out?"

With that said, she left without waiting for Duan Zhuangyu to say anything else.

Duan Zhuangyu was left there, stomping her feet in anger.

Already filled with rage, she felt today was the most humiliating day of her life. When she got home, she saw Huo Gaodi with a grim face: "You’re back?"

Huo Gaodi raised his head, staring at the person who just walked in: "Did you go to the courtyard today?"

Duan Zhuangyu cursed inwardly: Really, such a small matter, and someone had to complain.

Still holding herself high: "Yes, why can’t I go?"

Huo Gaodi could tolerate her acting out in their own small family, but if she made a scene in front of the old man, he naturally wouldn’t indulge it: "As a sister-in-law, is it appropriate for you to meddle in your brother-in-law’s affairs?"

Besides, Jingrui’s fiancée just went to visit Dad and Auntie Jiang out of courtesy, it wasn’t an official engagement meeting, why did you have to cause a commotion?"

Duan Zhuangyu was angry too: "Huo Gaodi, what do you mean, calling it a commotion? I just went over to ask. And why were Second brother, Second sister-in-law, and Big Sister there?"

Huo Gaodi saw her still being unreasonable: "Whether Second brother, Second sister-in-law, and Big Sister happened to be there or were informed has nothing to do with us. Why can’t you let it go?"

Duan Zhuangyu threw her bag onto the sofa: "Don’t you know what your family situation is?"

Before Huo Gaodi could speak, she continued: "They said it was an impromptu visit, but it was still the first time at the house, wouldn’t Auntie Jiang have to show some courtesy?"

Huo Gaodi immediately stood up: "Zhuangyu, isn’t your life already good enough? Why do you have to fixate on things that aren’t yours to begin with? Even if Auntie Jiang gives something, that’s Auntie Jiang’s right."
