Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 273

Chapter 273: Chapter 273 Today I’ll Show You a Trick

Zhong Liyuan, having pieced together the reason, said angrily, "It’s all because of my second brother, that coward."

Zheng Xuewen frowned. "Doesn’t your second brother have his own job? Wait, did something happen?"

Zhong Liyuan’s eyes immediately reddened. "He was dating someone, and they had already reached the point of discussing marriage. Their parents had even met before. But for some reason, just as things were about to be finalized, they changed their tune.

"They insisted that my family arrange a job for the woman. The betrothal gift they demanded was already substantial, and because of this, my older brother’s wife even raised a big fuss at home. My mom was already very unhappy about it and even said that if it couldn’t be worked out, then they should just forget the whole thing.

"But my second brother, the good-for-nothing, got himself tricked. In the end, he had no choice but to agree. You know how difficult it is to arrange a job, so I was the one who had to go to the countryside, giving up my job placement."

Zheng Xuewen hadn’t expected that something set in stone could still change. "Well, it’s already happened. Don’t be angry about it anymore."

Zhong Liyuan let out a HMPH. "If I had known this would happen, I would have signed up with you. My second brother has really caused a lot of trouble—I get so mad just thinking about him."

Yunyi heard this and started to laugh. It seems I misunderstood; he really isn’t that lovesick after all.

Huo Jingrui saw the smile playing on her lips. "What delightful thing are you thinking about?"

Yunyi glanced at him. "I’m craving stewed vegetables with pasted buns, but I’m not good at making them. Do you know how?"

Now, even the ever-capable Huo Jingrui was stumped. "Stewing, I can manage. But pasted buns? I’ve only ever watched them being made; I’ve never actually tried my hand at it. Should I give it a go?"

Yunyi nodded. "Okay, we’ll try when we get back. If they fall into the pot, we’ll just end up with stewed dough clumps."

She started laughing as she spoke.

She had taken the pheasant out from her interdimensional space after returning from the mountains last night and hidden it here, just in case she needed it, to avoid arousing any suspicion. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
