Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223: Chapter 223 Repaying a Favor

Yunyi delivered the news and didn’t stay long.

In any case, the Branch Secretary’s family had been very kind to her during her time in Songling Village, so she considered this repaying a favor.

Leaving the Branch Secretary’s house, she headed straight for Zhao Guihua’s. "Auntie."

Zhao Guihua looked up, saw it was Yunyi, and smiling, hurriedly went to greet her. "Chu Zhiqing, what brings you here today?"

Yunyi saw no one else was in the courtyard. "Auntie," she said, "I came to chat with you for a bit."

Zhao Guihua was shrewd; from Yunyi’s words, she understood something must be up. "Come, come inside and sit with Auntie for a while."

The two chatted idly as they walked into the house.

Upon entering, Zhao Guihua gestured her to the warmest spot on the kang. "Chu Zhiqing, please sit. Auntie will pour you some water."

Yunyi quickly stopped her. "Auntie, please don’t trouble yourself. I have something to tell you. You sit down too."

Zhao Guihua took an enamel mug that was placed upside down on a tea tray on the cupboard. "Last time you came, you didn’t even step inside. You’ve finally come for a visit; how could I not even offer you a glass of water?"

Her movements were swift. She took a sugar jar from the cupboard, scooped two spoonfuls of sugar into the enamel mug, and then picked up a thermos to pour hot water into it.

She brought over the prepared brown sugar water. "Here, drink this. It’s nice and sweet."

Since the water was already poured, it would be impolite to refuse. She accepted the water and thanked her. "Auntie, I came to tell you something."

Zhao Guihua immediately thought someone in the village had been causing her trouble. "Did someone in the village bully you?"

Seeing the misunderstanding, Yunyi quickly explained, "No, no, I’m the one who has something to discuss with you."
