Yunyi and Huo Jiayuan didn’t go out to join in the neighborhood gossip.
It wasn’t until Huo Jingrui returned that they learned the new man who just moved in is surnamed Li and has taken over Chief Lu’s position. Previously, their family lived over in the Tubular Building, and because they had a lot of people at home, they often tried to get the factory to change their housing. However, due to a tight housing situation at the factory, it was never resolved.
They also learned from Huo Jingrui that originally, after Chief Lu stepped down, this new Director Li shouldn’t have been in line for the position. However, from the woman’s side, they connected with a distant relative who pulled some strings, thus pushing down the most likely candidate for the promotion.
After hearing Huo Jingrui’s words, Yunyi remarked, "It seems this family isn’t easy to deal with either. They’re neighbors with the Qi Family, and with what happened today, they probably won’t have peace in the future. Luckily, they live diagonally opposite, and there are a few families between us."
After saying that, she remembered they would be moving out by the end of the year at most and suddenly laughed.
Huo Jingrui happened to look over and immediately knew what she was thinking: "As long as they don’t interfere with us, it’s all good."
After dinner, Huo Jiayuan remembered that Fourth Sister-in-law should soon return to the Tubular Building, and said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, you haven’t opened that package yet."
Only then did Yunyi remember: "Okay, let’s open the package later."
Huo Jingrui was also curious about what the Ye Family sent, so he followed them into the prepared wedding room.
Huo Jingrui placed the package on the table, receiving a pair of scissors passed by his sister, opened it, and found two silk comforters, two brand new military wool blankets, two pieces of woolen fabric sufficient for two outfits, and quite a few food items from Friendship Mall, along with a letter.
After reading the letter, Yunyi didn’t speak for a long time. The letter mentioned that after receiving the package, she should remember to call home and said that if the family could get leave, they all would come to attend the wedding.
