Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time! - Chapter 923

923 Back to the Countryside

They had wanted to take Old Master Zhou out to eat so that they would not have to trouble themselves to cook at home. However, Old Master Zhou insisted that he had learned a few dishes and wanted to personally cook for his in-laws to try.

This made Yun Shan extremely excited. A while ago, he had been learning from the neighbor’s chef every day, and he finally had the chance to show off his skills.

Looking at the two of them with their arms around each other’s shoulders and almost walking to the kitchen hand in hand, worry appeared on Chen Li and Yun Xi’s faces.

Hopefully, the two of them would not blow up the kitchen.

!!
Zhou Mo and Lin Yu had already left as if they had a banquet to attend that night.

After they left, Yun Yang laughed awkwardly. “I don’t like Zhou Mo. It’s good that he’s gone. I’ve been holding it in for a whole day!”

In the end, his head received a slap from Chen Li.

Surprisingly, the dishes were not bad when they were served. Although they were home-cooked and simple, they were delicious.

‘This new year is really good,’ Yun Xi exclaimed in her heart many times.

It was just that on the second day of the new year, she had to go to Old Madam Yun’s place to pay a visit, which gave Yun Xi a headache.

In addition, Zhou Lin had told her that he would be going home for a few days in the evening to visit his relatives with the Old Master.

Yun Xi was even more depressed. Not only did she have to face a ‘fierce battle’, but her boyfriend was not by her side.

As compensation, Zhou Lin worked even harder that night, letting Yun Xi experience what it meant to be in a state of ecstasy and not be able to stop even if she wanted to.

As a result, she could only get out of bed the next day by rubbing her waist.

This man almost made her unable to go out. She would definitely teach him a lesson next time!

There was still a distance between the city and their house in the countryside. Moreover, Yun Xi was not in good health today and could not walk far. After some discussion, they decided to rent a car and let the driver send her back and forth. It would be more worry-free.

From the moment they entered, some of the neighbors saw Yun Shan’s family getting out of the car and thought that they had bought it.

These women were smart, so they would definitely come over to say some flattering words.

As a matter of fact, Old Madam Yun knew that Yun Shan’s family was coming back, so she had been waiting at the door early. From afar, she could see a group of people gathered around her.

“Oh, Old Madam Yun, you’re really lucky. Your third son is already driving a small car, but we haven’t even sat in one before!”

“Yes, the one who came yesterday was your eldest son, right? With all those things he brought, I can tell that he’s a promising one!”

“Besides, your second son is taking care of you every day. He’s really a filial son!”

Old Madam Yun stood proudly at the door with her back straight and her head held high, reminding Yun Xi of the statue standing in the cold wind.

When they saw Yun Shan and the others carrying things over, these people started to talk again.

“Look at how many things your third son has brought. You’re so lucky, Old Madam. We’re all so envious!”

“Yes, yes. I’d be so happy if my son was half as good as your son!”

From afar, one could see Old Madam Yun’s face full of smiles as she was praised. She was exchanging pleasantries with everyone and showing off.

When Yun Shan and Chen Li heard this, they both looked embarrassed. Yun Yang muttered ‘shameless’ in a low voice, but Yun Xi shot him a sharp look.

“Mom, don’t stand at the door. Don’t catch a cold.” Yun Shan did not want to be discussed by these people anymore.

“That’s right, everyone, let’s not crowd around here!” Chen Li also helped to say a few words, but it did not seem to have any effect.

“By the way, dad, mom, I’ve checked the front. The rental of the car is due at 4:00 PM. We have to calculate the time.”

Yun Xi seemed to have unintentionally reminded Yun Shan, but she was actually saying it for the people around them to hear.

“After all this, it turns out that this car was rented!”

“It seems like Yun Shan’s family isn’t doing too well. They have to rent a car when they come back!”

“Let’s go, let’s go!”

When Old Madam Yun saw this, she could not hold her face any longer. After everyone had left, she turned around and chided Yun Xi, “You little girl, what nonsense are you spouting at this time? I haven’t seen you for so long and you still don’t know how to say good things.”

“My sister is right, our car is indeed rented!” Naturally, Yun Yang would not tolerate his sister being bullied.

“Yes, mom. Yun Xi’s business had some problems and we lost money. Fortunately, we still have some money left. Otherwise, we could only take the bus. How could we afford a car?” Yun Shan said the words he had agreed on with Yun Xi.

The Old Madam naturally did not believe it, but it was not good to keep standing at the door, so she had to follow them into the house.
