Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant Chapter 831: Where Were You Earlier?

Granny Qi couldn’t worry about anything else, cast a glance under the bed, and hurriedly got off to put on her shoes: "Son, I accidentally overheard Director Feng talking to his wife about Vice Factory Director Huo being transferred back to Beijing, and his wife leaving after the college entrance exam, so I thought..."

She didn’t have the nerve to finish her sentence.

Qi Guoqing was visibly angry: "Mom, you are really muddle-headed, how could you dare do that?"

Granny Qi, knowing she was at fault, didn’t dare argue: "Son, what should I do now?"

Qi Guoqing let out a heavy breath, deeply agitated: "When you do sothing wrong, you naturally have to face the consequences. Doctor Chu wants you to return the items intact and apologize in front of the Security Departnt. If not, the only option is to call the police."

Upon hearing about calling the police, Granny Qi’s body softened, almost collapsing to the ground.

Fortunately, her sister-in-law next to her supported her, allowing her to sit on the edge of the bed: "Guoqing, I’ll return everything, but don’t let them call the police. I’m old, it’s not about , but how will you and the kids have any face in the future?"

Qi Guoqing beca even more angry upon hearing this: "Where were you all this ti?"

Then Granny Qi rembered sothing and suddenly looked at the two bedcovers placed on the bed: "Oh no, those covers were sealed with a circle of double happiness characters cut out from red paper, which I accidentally tore."

Now Qi Guoqing understood why Doctor Chu repeatedly emphasized returning them ’intact’; clearly, she had anticipated the outco long ago.

The Jia family was confused by what they heard, but they understood that there was likely sothing dubious about the covers on the bed.

Jia Laosan stepped forward: "Sis, what’s going on exactly?"

Granny Qi’s face turned from green to red upon hearing the question, but she was too embarrassed to say in front of so many people that she had stolen the covers by climbing over a wall in the middle of the night.

She could only pull her brother and sister-in-law into another room and awkwardly recounted the whole story.

The husband and wife gasped in shock, clueless about what to say.

Kang Siya admitted that their family indeed had received a lot of help from their elder sister-in-law, but they had never imagined such a thing would happen this ti: "Aunt, you should quickly take the covers and follow Guoqing back to explain to them, we can’t let this incident affect his work."

Kang Siya was sharp; over the years, their elder sister-in-law couldn’t support them frequently because the nephew had a job and was well-off. If this incident impacted the nephew’s job, they wouldn’t dare approach him in the future.

Besides, if this matter escalated and their elder sister-in-law was labeled a ’thief’, they would bring sha upon themselves, and it could ruin their son’s marriage.

So they couldn’t afford to lose sothing of greater value for this small issue, and hurriedly went to pack the items, urging them to hurry back. As they left, they didn’t forget to call out: "Tomorrow, I’ll have soone send you so winter vegetables, take care on the road."

The mother and son hurried back to the county.

Qi Guoqing didn’t dare go ho; he directly took his mom to the Security Departnt.

The Security Departnt naturally had no sympathy for thieves, treating them with disdain, especially when they had stolen from Vice Factory Director Huo’s ho, making them even more resentful.

The Security Departnt called the Workers’ Hospital to inform Yunyi.

After finishing her tasks, she leisurely rode her bike to the factory’s Security Departnt.

As soon as Granny Qi saw her co in, she silently hid behind her son, feeling humiliated.
