Chapter 33 The Matter Is Settled

Father Sun didn’t even look up, his expression grave. "They’ve already said it over there. So many people saw it yesterday—it’s a matter of conduct, and he must be thoroughly reeducated." Mrs. Sun finally understood. "What! Didn’t the Su Family say they had connections? That they already explained they were courting? Why are they still not letting it go?" Father Sun ran a hand through his already sparse hair. "How would I know?" Mrs. Sun became agitated. "Then what are we waiting for? Let’s hurry to the Su Family and ask what’s going on." Father Sun knew the situation was already decided. Finding the Su Family would be in vain, so he sat there listlessly, not moving. Seeing him like this, Mrs. Sun angrily slapped at him. "Will you say something? Are we just going to watch as our third child ruins his life?" Then something occurred to her. "No, no, we can’t just stand by and do nothing! Yes, yes, yes, let’s find Chuyunyi. Right, hurry, hurry, hurry!" As she spoke, she tugged at her husband’s clothes. "Come on, quickly! Come with me to find Chuyunyi." Meanwhile, the very Chuyunyi they were talking about was discussing the house with the Wei Family. Auntie Wei looked incredulous and confirmed again, "Yunyi, what did you just say?" Yunyi replied with a faint smile, "You heard me right. After Brother Hongjun gets married and comes back to visit, he can temporarily move into the guest room at my place. When the canning factory allocates him a house, he can move there." Auntie Wei was so excited her hands flitted about. "How can I ever thank you enough." Father Wei’s brow also smoothed as he said gratefully, "Yunyi, don’t worry. The house will be just as you left it when you return. We’ll make sure Hongjun and his wife keep the yard tidy for you." Yunyi nodded with a smile. "I naturally trust you. Before I leave, I’ll pack up some of the kitchen things. They can add a few items and start cooking then." After repeatedly thanking Yunyi, the Wei Family members left. Why let Wei Hongjun move in only after the wedding? Mainly because a wedding would be crowded and chaotic, and she didn’t want to expose the Chu family’s courtyard situation to outsiders. Furthermore, Grandfather’s first seven-day mourning period wasn’t over yet, and she didn’t want too many people entering and disturbing the courtyard’s tranquility. Tomorrow was Grandfather’s first seventh-day memorial. She had already arranged with Hua Wanqing for him to drive over early in the morning to take her to pay her respects. She had done everything she could think of, making the past few hectic days worthwhile. All that was left was to prepare food for tomorrow’s car journey. By the time she reached the state-owned restaurant, steamed buns were already on sale. Initially, she planned to buy extra to store away, but seeing that the line was full of acquaintances, she dismissed the idea. However, when it was her turn, she still bought ten buns. If asked, she’d say they were for eating in the car tomorrow. She hadn’t bought many groceries for home these past few days, so Yunyi simply ate a bowl of plain noodles at the state-owned restaurant. Since she was leaving tomorrow, there was no need to buy more ingredients to cook at home. As she neared her home, she ran right into the Sun family, who were rushing over frantically. Mrs. Sun, seeing Yunyi, lunged at her. "Yunyi, you have to save Ruiming!" Yunyi dodged to the side, looking at the Sun family members with disgust. "What are you trying to do?" Father Sun, seeing Yunyi’s displeasure, quickly said to his younger daughter, "Yanzi, quickly stop your mother." Sun Xiaoyan didn’t really want to step forward; she actually wanted her mother to teach Chuyunyi a lesson. But when Father Sun saw she wasn’t moving, he pushed her, so she had no choice but to step forward. "Mom, don’t be impulsive."
