Chapter 1000: What a Coincidence (4)
When Ruan Jiaojiao arrived at the dining room, everyone else was already eating.
Ruan Jiaojiao glanced around and noticed that Ruan Hao was no longer there—he must have gone to school. She felt a slight pang of disappointment.
Seeing her hair unbound, the Ruanlin Family worried it might be inconvenient for her to eat breakfast. She went back to her room, fetched a hair tie and comb, and fixed Jiaojiao’s hair in the living room before heading to the dining room for breakfast. At the same time, Sister Shu Jiao emerged from Shu Wen’s room.
"How’s Grandpa doing?" the Ruanlin Family asked with concern.
Sister Shu Jiao shook her head. "He’s fine. He’s just getting older—give him some rest and he’ll be okay." She then turned to Jiaojiao and said, "Jiaojiao, your aunt will be arriving later today. Would you like to go to the station to pick her up?"
"Sure!" She had nothing else to do at home anyway.
Shu Wei’s train was scheduled to arrive at Beidu Station at ten in the morning. Ruan Jie, having stayed up late playing games, wanted to sleep in and opted not to go. In the end, it was Sister Shu Jiao, Jiaojiao, and Xiu Xi who went.
Ruan Jianguo and the Ruanlin Family stayed home. Jianguo wanted a chance to show off and stayed behind to take care of Shu Wen, while the Ruanlin Family remembered that Shu Wei loved her homemade cooking and decided to make a few simple dishes in the kitchen.
The weather in Beidu today was slightly warmer than yesterday, but not wanting Jiaojiao to catch a cold, Sister Shu Jiao bundled her up tightly.
The three arrived at Beidu Station at nine-thirty. After waiting for over twenty minutes, they went to meet her at the station entrance just before ten.
