In the past, she would visit relatives during the Chinese New Year. At least Zhao Fengxia must take them back to the Zhao family, and the Ruan family will also bring children. After all, Zhao Fengxia has Ruan Cheng's pension in her hand, and she can take some lucky money and bring some gifts back.
But this year, Zhao Fengxia and Zhao Jinhai left. Both the Zhao and Ruan families were warned and dared not be as presumptuous as in previous years. They didn't have to go to relatives, which saved a lot of effort and trouble.
The neighbors sent some snacks made by their own home. Ruan Tang took Xu Xi and Xu Wang to visit the neighbors' homes with candy and send children their favorite things.
On the third day of junior high school, old man Ruan and old lady Ruan came with Ruan Ming.
The two old people were outside, and the security guard was embarrassed to keep them in the way. Ruan Sui took them home when he knew.
"Are you all right?" old man Ruan's face is much more jet lagged than last time. His face has many wrinkles and his hair seems to be a little white.
Less sharp, looking more kind.
But his image has long been fixed in the eyes of Ruan Tang and Ruan Sui. All they remember is an old man who often bullies them as an elder for uncle Ruan and sister-in-law Ruan for their grandson.
Old man Ruan's tone was eager, but Ruan Sui was neither hot nor cold: "very good."
Then he added, "this is the best year we have had since our father left."
No calculation, no pressure, no quarrel, no robbery, no eccentricity, no strange atmosphere, no disturbance from outsiders
There is only the harmony and warmth that their brothers and sisters rely on and encourage each other.
Old Ruan's face changed and he looked away with some guilt.
In previous years, the Ruan family and the Zhao family came here with a large family. In addition to themselves, they even brought relatives far away from their seven aunts. They either broke Ruan Tang's things or robbed something. Anyway, they made a lot of trouble every time.
Ruan Sui said this to remind them that some things have happened and the consequences have been cast. It is impossible to erase the traces.
Old man Ruan glanced at him. Ruan Sui remained unchanged and let him look at him.
Finally, Ruan's head seemed to compromise, sighed and said, "I know, you hate me."
"No," said Ruan Sui.
It's true.
When their father was alive, they resented. They were all born. Why didn't their father get attention and preference? They felt aggrieved for their father's efforts for many years.
But now that their father has died, there is no bridge between them and these people, and they don't want to have anything to do with it.
Ruan Sui's cold attitude made old man Ruan feel uncomfortable again.
"We did a lot of wrong things before..."
As soon as old man Ruan opened his mouth, Ruan Sui interrupted him: "it's over, it's all over."
"..." seeing that Ruan Sui didn't want to talk at all, old man Ruan began to sigh again.
Ruan Sui: "haven't you eaten yet? We haven't eaten yet. We should cook more. We can catch the bus back after dinner."
Old man Ruan, old lady Ruan: "
Ruan Ming: "
Three people are stunned. Is this to drive them?
"Or have you already eaten? Then I'll let them cook less..."
"No!" Ruan Ming shook his head eagerly.
Old man Ruan and old lady Ruan look very ugly. They come this time because they think that no adult at home will fail. In the future, they will help wash and cook. Looking at the home, Ruan Tang and they can study at ease.
But looking at Ruan Sui's attitude, it seems that they won't stay at all.
