Chapter 905 - 906: Getting Down to Business
My niece, Lu Fengning, truly lives up to being the family’s bundle of joy: "Uncle Four, are you trying to make my dad and the other uncles gang up on you?"
Huo Jingrui belatedly looked at everyone and saw his brother-in-law and three brothers staring at him with resentful eyes.
Looking at the expressions of his sisters-in-law, he coughed lightly and said, "Yi’er is new here, so I naturally have to take extra care of her."
Lu Fengning, the little rascal, immediately stirred things up, "Uncle Four is blushing."
Huo Jingrui gave his niece a ’just you wait’ look and continued his great endeavor of serving food, as his thick skin shielded him from their teasing.
But he did grow wise and served quite a bit to his own mother as well.
Jiang Jingya jokingly said to Yunyi, "Yiyi, I’m grateful to you. This boy is showing some heart."
Overall, the dinner was a harmonious affair.
It reminded Yunyi of a saying, borrowing a bit: whether the Huo Family is chaotic or not depends on Duan Zhuangyu.
Look, as long as she doesn’t stir things up, it’s all joy and harmony.
After dinner, everyone didn’t stay long, as they had work and school the next day.
Yunyi prepared a gift for each family as a gesture of thanks for their busy help over the past few days, and together with Huo Jingrui, they watched everyone leave before heading back inside.
As soon as they entered, Jiang Jingya beckoned to Yunyi, "Yiyi, come sit."
Yunyi walked over and saw the ledger on the coffee table, "Mom, what’s this?"
Jiang Jingya smiled, "After they got married, I didn’t keep any of the gift money, you’ll be the same. Here is today’s gift ledger and money for you to keep."
Yunyi initially didn’t want to accept it, as most of the gift money was intended for her parents-in-law, not to mention future reciprocation.
Jiang Jingya naturally saw her intention, "That’s how it is for their siblings, there’s no need to decline."
Huo Jingrui nodded slightly to Yunyi, "Since it’s from mom and dad, just accept it."
Since things were this way, she couldn’t refuse any longer, nor was she one to be pretentious.
Just after Yunyi put away the ledger and money, Jiang Jingya handed over another envelope, "You should take this as well."
Yunyi looked down at the envelope, "What’s this?"
Jiang Jingya laughed, "This is our settling-in fund, they also had it before."
Yunyi looked at Huo Jingrui, seeing him nod, she thanked her and accepted it.
Huo Shanhe took a phone call and went into the study to work.
Huo Jiayuan, seeing her dad leave, wisely said, "Mom, I’m tired from the day, I’ll head up to rest."
Jiang Jingya waved her hand, "Go ahead, go ahead."
After she went upstairs, Jiang Jingya took out another envelope, this one thicker than the previous ones, "Yiyi, this is for me to support you two, take it."
Yunyi was a bit troubled, "Mom, Jingrui has mostly fixed up the house on the base, you should keep this money."
Jiang Jingya firmly refused Yunyi’s decline, "This money is mine, you won’t have any concerns."
Huo Jingrui grinned at Yunyi, "Since mom already prepared it, dear, just accept it."
Seeing everything was done, Jiang Jingya quickly found an excuse to slip away; she didn’t want to interfere with the couple’s pleasant time.
After entering the room, without giving Yunyi a chance to store the ledger and gift money properly, Huo Jingrui swiftly picked her up and headed straight for the bed.
Yunyi reached out to push him, "I haven’t put things away yet?"
Huo Jingrui mumbled vaguely, "Take care of storage later, the main business is urgent....."
