Ruan Xianxian stood not far from the Jing family. Ruan Kangri collapsed and shouted that he was innocent, causing chaos among the Jing family members.

This Lunar New Year was so lively, the explosions were even louder than the firecrackers in the hands of children.

She had no intention of showing herself and was about to turn around when Su Tingrong, disheveled and unkempt, chased after her like a madwoman. This was the first time she had ever been so unconcerned about her appearance.

His bloodshot eyes scanned the surroundings like radar, and sure enough, he found Ruan Xianxian, who was about to leave.

With his bowed legs straining and struggling, he finally caught up with the person and was about to launch into a tirade, hurling insults at them—about the dignity of scholars, the pride of noble families…

At this moment, Su Tingrong just wanted them all to go to hell.

She anticipated, or rather, realized that Ruan Xianxian wanted to kill Ruan Kangri. Judging others by her own standards, she thought the young girl only wanted him to die silently in pain.

Unexpectedly, she had a large bowel movement on the day before the Lunar New Year.

Don't you know what it means to share both prosperity and adversity?

The act of sacrificing a thousand lives to injure eight enemies completely destroyed Ruan Kangri's cause. Did it bring any benefit to Ruan Xian, who also shares the same surname?

She couldn't understand it, and she felt like going crazy.

She was married to Ruan Kangri. She was arrested by the Jing family, which implicated the entire family.

As the phrase "national essence" rose to her throat, Ruan Xianxian looked at her with an unchanged smile, "Grandma Ruan, today is the Little New Year, did you send dumplings to Grandpa Jing at the cadre school?"

If I forget because I'm busy, I can do it for you.

She swallowed back the curse that was about to escape her lips, saying, "Thank you, thank you, but no need."

Ruan Xianxian nodded, "Then you go ahead with your work, I'll go back and make dumplings with my grandma."

On this day, a biting wind swept through the capital.

Ruan Qing not only has evidence of Ruan Kangri's crimes of hiding for many years, but also the countless pieces of evidence of crimes that Shan Jing left for Ruan Xianxian.

It was personally handed over to the troops by Ruan Qing, who then submitted it to the military court.

Compared to the fact that she cooperated with enemy agents during a mission and used the Japanese to kill her second daughter-in-law's entire family, the people were clearly more concerned about whose child Ruan Baozhu was.

If Nguyen Bao Chu was indeed Nguyen Anti-Japanese...

What about the other granddaughter, Ruan Xianxian? Could she also be the offspring of Ruan Kangri?

The topic has generated so much discussion that almost everyone who has connections to the news is excitedly following its developments.

People are often particularly interested in this kind of sensational gossip.

Ruan Xianxian sneered, "Sitting at home, I was caught in a trap." She could tell from the air that the wind was blowing in the wrong direction and that someone was deliberately pushing and spreading rumors behind the scenes.

She knew who the instigator was without even checking.

Su Tingrong learns so quickly; she's already putting what she's learned to use right away?

She didn't bother to explain herself. After the Lunar New Year, she took out the cotton dress she had made earlier for her and her grandmother, and went out hand in hand to shop for New Year's goods or visit relatives and friends.

After seeing her face, no one would doubt that she isn't her grandmother's child.

She's a more refined version of Yan Fenghua in her youth.

The rumors were disproven on their own.

Once the storm had passed, Ruan Xianxian stormed the Jing family's gate, demanding that Ruan Kangri be buried in the Jing family's ancestral graveyard after the matter was settled.

"Why should I?" Su Tingrong's complexion, which had just recovered somewhat, turned ashen with anger. She felt like she wanted to devour this wretched child.

Burying Ruan Kangri's ashes in the Jing family's home? Putting aside the fact that he hasn't even been sentenced or died yet, is it appropriate to handle this matter in such a hurry?

The Ruan family has absolutely no connection with the Jing family, so why should they be buried in the Jing family's burial site?

"I thought that by bringing him back to the Jing family, you agreed to Ruan Kangri's marriage into the family." Ruan Xianxian raised her chin high, her meaning clear: she was looking for trouble.

Anyone who makes her unhappy will be retaliated against tenfold.

"You can deny it if you don't want to. You are my step-grandmother. After you die, you can be buried with Ruan Kangri in the Ruan family ancestral cemetery. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Buried with such a filthy thing? You might as well just grind her bones to dust.

Elderly people who have been married two or more times are often buried with their first husband or their favorite spouse after they die.

Ruan Kangri was neither her first husband nor her beloved; in fact, she hated him intensely!

Buried together? Su Tingrong would rather have his ashes scattered than be buried with a scoundrel.

"You won't outlive me," Ruan Xianxian sneered. "Once you're dead, I'll come knocking on your door and snatch your ashes."

Su Tingrong fainted from anger.

Ruan Xianxian abandoned her demands regarding her stepmother's funeral arrangements and once again kicked out the Jing family.

On the 27th day of the Lunar New Year, the Jing family was thrown into chaos, with everyone and everything in disarray.

To her utter surprise, on the 29th, the day before Lunar New Year's Eve, Ruan Kangri was sentenced...

The death penalty will be carried out immediately after the New Year.

The speed of the process left Ruan Xianxian, who had been to the modern era, speechless.

The government: We have to act quickly, the impact is too terrible!

Even my uncle and aunt, who were on a business trip to the south, are said to be detained there and are being tried together on their way back to Beijing.

Including the younger sister-in-law of the Ruan family.

Ruan Xiaogu, who worked for the Revolutionary Committee and was dismissed for her dissolute behavior, was reported by her own sister, leading to the downfall of the Ruan family.

It is said that Ruan Qing went mad with murder, even confessing to her past infidelity to her husband, but she did not admit that Tian Tian was a bastard child, which was a deal with Ruan Xianxian.

The Ruan family must be completely wiped out.

It can be said that, apart from Ruan Baozhu, who was pregnant and hidden away by Gu Zhengchi, the entire Ruan family was imprisoned.

On the day the verdict was handed down, Ruan Xianxian was at home preparing New Year's Eve dinner with her grandmother. Many ingredients couldn't be processed on the day of the verdict and had to be prepared in advance.

Wearing a small apron, Fan Caicai marinated duck meat while telling Ruan Xianxian about the latest news from outside.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Grandma, who was busy in the kitchen, sent Xianxian, who looked like an old man, to open the door.

"They're here!" The door opened, and Ruan Xianxian stood there stunned. A middle-aged couple carrying large and small bags stood outside the door.

The man was under forty, with a straight posture and regular features. Upon closer inspection, his eyebrows and eyes even resembled those of Ruan Xianxian.

Ruan Xianxian's vision blurred with tears, and she suddenly hugged him, crying, "Grandpa!"

This was her father's biological brother, who had severed ties with the Ruan family years ago and struggled alone with his entire family on the border. In his previous life, he was killed by Ruan during the Anti-Japanese War.

His dear uncle was still thinking of her even before he died!

Ruan Jun's vision blurred for a moment before a tiny, calf-like child pounced on him. Carrying his belongings, he took a half-step back, looking down uncertainly.

"Xianxian? You were this tall the last time I saw you. How come you're still so short after all these years?"

The last time they met was three years ago, when he returned to Beijing to visit his niece at his mother's request.

Fearing that Ruan Kangri would find out and detain him, preventing him from returning to the frontier, and seeing that the little girl was living a hard life, he climbed onto the roof and threw a few ten-yuan bills at her feet.

This girl is something else; instead of secretly hiding the money she found, she handed it over to the Ruan family right away.

He made me so angry!

He dared not show his face, fearing that this big liar might accidentally leak the news of his return to Beijing to Ruan Kangri.

I'm so angry I laugh just thinking about it now!

Ruan Xianxian, who was in the middle of her excitement, froze, raised her head and tilted it, "Grandpa, what did I do to offend you?" Otherwise, why would you come up and hit her sore spot right away?

"Stop messing around, kid." A crisp female voice interrupted Ruan Jun, who was about to speak, and introduced herself confidently.

"Hello, I'm Auntie Anping."
