Ruanlin Family had no intention of bothering with her in the first place.
Before, she could slap her twice, but now she felt even slapping her would dirty her own hands!
After calling her, as soon as Ruan Jiaojiao entered, she immediately slammed the courtyard door shut with a smack.
Liao Zhaoji stood outside, stunned for a long time. She was reluctant to give up, wanting to step forward and pound on the door, but a warning came from inside, "If you dare to cause any more trouble, believe it or not, you’ll be thrown in jail immediately!"
Liao Zhaoji was immediately scared pale.
Clutching her basket containing four red eggs, she ran away.
Listening to her departing footsteps outside, Du Qing helplessly shook her head. Just , she still dared to come and make a scene. She wondered who had given her such courage.
But—she looked around, noticing that Ruan Chi and Ruan Wei were not there, and said, "Mom, I’m afraid we won’t have any peace from now on." That woman was like a lump of mud that once touched, could not be washed off.
"Who’s afraid of her?" Ruanlin Family spoke unhappily, "Next time she comes, I’ll directly grab a kitchen knife to deal with her!"
True to her grandmother’s style, powerful and domineering!
That day, due to Liao Zhaoji’s disturbance, Ruan Chi and Ruan Wei were in a bad mood, causing the atmosphere at the Ruan Family’s house to be quite unpleasant in the afternoon. Ruan Jiaojiao had no way to comfort them, so she could only silently accompany them, without any time to pay attention to the little antagonist.
However, Ruan Jiaojiao had no idea at the time that the next news she’d hear about the Liao Family would be .
It was said that Liao Laifu’s wedding feast was on June 16, coincidentally a Saturday. Liao Zhaoji, instructed by the Li Family, had run to the Ruan Family to inform them, also coveting the gift money from this branch of the family. After seeing that there was no chance, she stopped coming over.
Everyone from the Ruan Family was at home, enjoying a lively lunch, when suddenly an old lady with a worried expression rushed in, grabbed Ruan Jiandang, and urged to leave, "Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Her tone was incredibly urgent.
"Who are you?" Ruanlin Family furrowed her brows at this old lady who had burst in, a stranger to her, and removed her hand from Ruan Jiandang’s, "Where are you taking my son?"
"To the Liao Family!" The old lady explained, her face full of urgency, "I can’t explain everything right now, Jiandang, just come with me quickly."
"Why go to the Liao Family! Who are you!" Ruanlin Family’s expression soured upon hearing about the Liao Family.
"I’m Li Jingqiu’s sister! Your in-law’s sister!" The old lady replied, almost jumping with impatience, "Stop dawdling, hurry to the Liao Family, something big has happened!" She then attempted to pull Ruan Jiandang away again.
But she was immediately stopped by Ruanlin Family pushing her away, cursing, "Pah, who’s in-laws with them, they’ve already divorced!"
"Divorced?" Upon hearing this, the old lady was taken aback, a bit dumbfounded, but she immediately slapped her thigh, "Never mind that for now, there’s no one at the Liao Family, you should at least go over since you were once in-laws..."
"What do you mean no one?" It was only then that Ruan Jiandang spoke up with a question.
The old lady, realizing that the Ruan Family members staring at her were unaware, belatedly asked, "You don’t know?"
The Ruan Family members looked at each other, perplexed. What were they supposed to know?
Seeing their reaction, the old lady had no choice but to explain quickly.
Liao Laifu was getting married that very day, and he was very satisfied with his bride, so he got up early, got ready, and immediately took his friends to the bride’s home to receive his bride.
