Chapter 1165: Chapter 1165: Turning Point (6)
So Yang Xiaona bringing her own luck isn’t impossible, or maybe her fate is just tougher, so she’s not afraid of these things.
But whether it’s true or not still needs to be verified.
In Xiu Xi’s eyes, even a thousand Yang Xiaonas couldn’t compare to a single Ruan Jiaojiao, so the things she cares about don’t even catch his attention. Seeing Shu Jiao’s gaze coming over, he directly said, “We can try.”
Ruan Jiaojiao pursed her lips in silence, she is afraid of death, more afraid than anyone else. The appearance of Yang Xiaona was indeed a surprise for her, but the young girl was soft-hearted and reluctant to harm others.
They returned home in silence, Shu Lang and Qin Qiong hadn’t gone to bed yet, the two of them were sitting in the living room. Ruan Jiaojiao came in and greeted them first, then habitually began looking for the Ruanlin Family.
“Grandma, grandma, Jiaojiao is back.”
“Hey, grandma’s in the room.” The voice of the Ruanlin Family came from the room.
Ruan Jiaojiao immediately chased in and saw the Ruanlin Family already lying on the bed, surprised: “Grandma, why did you go to bed so early today?”
Ruan Jiaojiao’s evening self-study finishes at nine twenty, it takes only four or five minutes by car from school to home, and it’s not even nine fifty now. Although the Ruanlin Family are elderly, in recent years to take care of Ruan Jiaojiao, their routine was almost synchronized with hers.
A few years ago, Ruan Jianguo also mentioned hiring a nanny to come back, firstly hoping the old lady could rest and enjoy life, secondly to take care of Ruan Jiaojiao’s daily life, but this suggestion, as soon as it came up, was harshly scolded by the Ruanlin Family.
According to the Ruanlin Family, she wasn’t too old to be incapable of moving, no need to waste that money, and besides, she wouldn’t trust anyone else with taking care of Ruan Jiaojiao. Ruan Jiaojiao had been brought up by her since she was five, and she wouldn’t even feel at ease leaving her to Shu Jiao.
Another thing is that older people who’ve worked their whole lives actually can’t sit still, and the Ruanlin Family was like that. If they weren’t allowed to plant some vegetables in the front yard, weren’t allowed to manage the family’s daily life, they would feel uncomfortable everywhere.
So over these years, even though the Ruan Family became more and more wealthy, they never thought about hiring someone.
And usually at this time, the Ruanlin Family would have already prepared milk for Ruan Jiaojiao, waiting for her to come back, but today they were lying on the bed, so it wasn’t surprising that Ruan Jiaojiao felt something odd.
Moreover, the Ruanlin Family hadn’t gone to the school to deliver meals at noon. Zhao Li said at the time that someone from the village had come to ask her grandmother for help, but now Ruan Jiaojiao, under the bright light, looked at the Ruanlin Family and felt that her face didn’t look quite right.
She sniffed her little nose, not knowing if she was being too sensitive, felt as if she smelled disinfectant.
Because she had just gone to the hospital yesterday to get a tetanus shot, this smell was especially familiar.
“Jiaojiao, come to drink your milk.” Shu Jiao called from outside, bringing in the milk.
Ruan Jiaojiao got up and took the milk, asking the Ruanlin Family: “Grandma, are you coming to school to deliver meals tomorrow?”
“Grandma has something to do tomorrow, so she won’t go.” The Ruanlin Family said with a smile, her hand on the quilt, not noticing Ruan Jiaojiao’s abnormality. It is said that illness comes like a mountain falling, and the Ruanlin Family perfectly illustrated this saying.
Originally, her body had always been healthy, but because she was too worried about Ruan Jiaojiao, eating little, hardly sleeping, all pent up within her heart, in just a few days, it broke down.
Today she really shouldn’t have been discharged from the hospital, but she was afraid that Ruan Jiaojiao would worry, so she forced herself to be discharged.
