Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant Chapter 580: Xiaoxi Wasn’t Mistaken, That Really Was Yunyi

Ye Wenhui wasn’t having it: "Are you implying that I’m unlucky, or that you’re unlucky?"

Zheng Xuewen quickly felt embarrassed, coughed lightly with a strong desire to survive: "We might be missing just a tiny bit, but we’re people of fortune."

Suddenly he spoke up, "Am I going to be brothers-in-law with Big Brother Huo in the future?"

Everyone paused for a mont and then burst out laughing.

Qiao Wenyu chuckled and said, "What, you’re just realizing it now?"

Zheng Xuewen looked quite embarrassed.

Leaving Ye Wenhui rolling her eyes at him multiple tis.

The Huo Family’s year-end dinner was also quite lively.

Several families all brought their households back to the courtyard.

With Auntie Zhang cooking at ho, the sisters-in-law just helped with minor tasks, but even so, Duan Zhuangyu just took one turn in the kitchen and then headed to the sofa to wait for the food.

Huo Shanhe glared over there, his expression darkening.

His wife, as a mother-in-law, was still helping in the kitchen, while Duan Zhuangyu, a daughter-in-law, had left—and she always boasted about her cultural upbringing, which really made people shake their heads.

Huo Gaodi noticed his father’s change in expression and quickly nudged his wife with his elbow: "Auntie Jiang and everyone else are helping in the kitchen, why did you co out?"

Duan Zhuangyu angrily glanced at him: "The kitchen is only so big; it can’t fit that many people. If I co out, they have more space."

Her words were so forthright that Huo Gaodi was fuming, but he couldn’t lose his temper in front of his dad, so he just gritted his teeth: "It’s New Year; don’t ruin the mood. Go and help out quickly."

Seeing Huo Gaodi truly angry, Duan Zhuangyu had no choice but to reluctantly drag herself to the kitchen door: "Is there anything else I can take outside to do?"

The people in the kitchen hadn’t expected anything from her anyway, but since she’d asked, they couldn’t let her idle.

Big sister-in-law Gui Hongi directly handed her a pot of garlic: "Peel the garlic; at least fill a big bowl."

Duan Zhuangyu thought about the sll of garlic all over her, and opened her mouth to decline, but Gui Hongi wouldn’t give her the chance and shoved the pot into her hands, turning back into the kitchen.

Seeing her husband staring at her, Duan Zhuangyu couldn’t make a fuss and reluctantly took on the task with a dark face.

Gui Hongi mumbled quietly: "Watch, Huo Gaodi will probably end up doing this work."

The others in the kitchen didn’t respond, but every now and then they sneaked a look outside, and Gui Hongi turned out to be right.

Soon enough, Duan Zhuangyu called out: "Gaodi, co here for a mont."

Gui Hongi couldn’t help but say, "See, I told you so."

However, the others in the kitchen didn’t comnt on it. Since Huo Gaodi was willing to take it, it wasn’t anyone else’s concern. After all, they didn’t live together, everyone just considered it entertainnt and wouldn’t interfere.

Jiang Jingya couldn’t help but think about her son and daughter-in-law, wondering how they were spending their New Year.

Glancing at Duan Zhuangyu, she thought to herself: Her own daughter-in-law was so much better, charming and capable both inside and outside the ho, and importantly, she brought pride to the family.

She hadn’t ntioned Yunyi’s acting career publicly, but in recent days, there had been no shortage of talk about Yunyi in the courtyard, all praises, which made her imnsely pleased.

Just as she was recalling this, the second daughter-in-law remarked: "Auntie Jiang, a few days ago, Xiaoxi went with my family’s younger siblings to see a movie and ca back saying she saw Little Aunt in the film, which made laugh so hard."

Jiang Jingya knew Gao Ruyi was good, and seeing Gui Hongi focused on her ingredients, she lowered her voice: "Xiaoxi wasn’t mistaken; that really was Yunyi."
