Chapter 769: Returning to One’s Ancestral Roots (25)_1
Ever since the Ruan Family got Xiaobai, they never bought fruits again, as if Xiaobai had a treasure chest—she could get any fruit. The villagers didn’t find this strange, knowing that the Ruans had good relations with many major households in town, and they assumed the fruits were gifts from them. They had no idea all the fruits were actually from Xiaobai.
"Uncle, please have some grapes," Ruan Jiaojiao said with a fruit plate in her hands, smiling sweetly.
Jiang Bin was lean and tall with exceptionally long legs, and he was also very handsome. However, perhaps due to his profession, he appeared rather stern, and when he did not smile, he gave off the impression of a strict director of discipline.
Jiang Bin had two elder brothers and one sister, followed by a younger sister. Everyone was married except for him. He had several nephews and nieces, but perhaps because he was often away, he wasn’t close to any of them. They seemed to fear him to some extent and never took the initiative to approach him.
Ruan Jiaojiao, who not only approached him but also smiled at him so softly and gently, was the first of her kind. It was already a good day if his other nieces didn’t run away at the sight of him.
Especially when he heard her sweet voice asking him to eat grapes, he suddenly understood why Shu Wen liked this niece so much.
Some people are indeed born to be cherished.
All year round, he would send over about ten parcels, almost one every month. Knowing that he was coming, they prepared even earlier this time.
Thinking about it, not doting on such a cute and heartwarming niece would seem nearly unjustifiable.
He didn’t eat fruits, but feeling it hard to refuse the little one’s kind offer, he still picked up a grape, peeled it and ate it. Seeing her expectant eyes, he smiled and said, "It’s very sweet, thank you, Jiaojiao."
