Chapter 2043: Everyone Has Their Own Troubles (4)
"I really don’t know how her parents taught her. She came to our house wailing early in the morning. It’s so inappropriate, standing at the front door for all the neighbors to see. What’s going on?" said Ruanlin Family, truly fed up at this point.
The elderly, especially Ruanlin Family, having gone through Ruan Jiaojiao’s escapades over the years, were quite superstitious. In her eyes, Hong Ling coming over and crying first thing in the morning, seemed utterly inexplicable and extremely inauspicious, almost like mourning at a funeral, which displeased her greatly.
Everyone in the family was doing well, her little darling was healthy and happy—how wonderful was that? Who was she cursing by crying so early?!
So she directly told her, if you want to cry, do it somewhere else, not at the Ruan Family’s doorstep.
Ruan Jiaojiao, after hearing her grandmother’s explanation, couldn’t help but burst into laughter, leaning forward to hug her grandmother’s waist, who was bending over to pick up firewood, and said, "Grandma, you’re just too adorable."
Who would have thought her grandma was such a straightforward woman.
She chuckled at the thought of Hong Ling being told by Ruanlin Family to go elsewhere to cry.
At first, Ruanlin Family found it baffling, but seeing Ruan Jiaojiao laughing, she couldn’t help but chuckle along too. She patted her hand and said, "Alright now, Grandma’s clothes are dirty, let go, or you’ll get your hands dirty."
Ruan Jiaojiao shook her head, smiling brightly, "Grandma, how about we go back to Xiahe Village tomorrow? Dad said Uncle Ruan Xia has already cleaned up the old house. We’ll stay there for ten days to half a month, how about it?"
"That sounds good, that sounds good." Hearing this, Ruanlin Family nodded repeatedly. Although life was getting better now, what she truly missed was the life in Xiahe Village.
Seeing Ruanlin Family so happy, Ruan Jiaojiao felt joyful as well. The grandmother and granddaughter shared a warm moment in the kitchen, until Ruanlin Family, annoyed at her hindering her work, stuffed a freshly steamed basket of corn into her hands and pushed her out.
Outside, Yu Rou and Lu Zishu were still bickering, like natural-born enemies. As soon as they met, they’d argue, and when it got intense, they’d even get physical.
