Chapter 1021 Xin Family (9)
However, before leaving today, Ruan Jie was severely reprimanded by Ruan Linshi and was released. Shu Jie was also a little uneasy. After getting in the car, she told Xu Xu: "Xiao Xu, Auntie may not be able to come today. Remember to help Auntie take care of Jiaojiao, okay?"
Xu Xu naturally agreed.
This was the first time for Ruan Jiaojiao to attend such a banquet. It would be a lie to say that she was not nervous, but because Shu Jie was by her side and Xu Xu was holding her hand all the time, she was still relatively calm.
The Xin family and the Jiang family lived in a large compound. The Jiang family lived in a quadrangle, but the Xin family lived in a small western-style building with front and back gardens. So this birthday party was not held in a hotel, but directly at home, and the guests were also people from the upper circles of Beidu.
When Ruan Jiaojiao and the others arrived, the Xin family already had quite a few guests. Because of the Jiang family's introduction, the Xin couple immediately came to greet Ruan Jiaojiao and the others as soon as they got out of the car.
Xin Miao is ten years old this year. She has a fifteen-year-old brother and a thirteen-year-old sister. The Xin couple are about the same age as Shu Jie and Ruan Jianguo.
Mrs. Xin is a Jiangnan beauty. She has a particularly good temperament and is particularly gentle and pleasant. She is somewhat similar to Shu Jie, but also a little different. Shu Jie has a little more bookish air than Mrs. Xin.
As for Xin Bo and Ruan Jianguo, the difference is huge.
The Ruan family became wealthy in the early 1990s. Now they can only be considered as barely rich, but they are still far from being wealthy. Ruan Jianguo is a real farmer. He has studied a little, but not much. He has been doing farm work all year round. Even now when he wears a suit, he still looks like a beast in clothes.
People feel that he is out of place in this world.
But Xin Bo is a real big man, a university professor. Xin Bo has a sister who was a classmate of Shu Jie back then, so they have a little intersection.
Shu Jie was the dream lover of many people. She had a good family background, was good-looking, and was well-educated. But she unexpectedly married such a man. Many people who recognized Shu Jie had a look of pity on their faces, but it was unknown what they were thinking.
Ruan Jiaojiao was holding Shu Jie's hand when she got off the car. She was also bathed in such a sight and pursed her lips unhappily. She was not stupid. How could she not know that these people looked down on her father? She was a little angry.
Her father's goodness could not be fully described even if it took ten days and ten nights. What do these people know!
Ruan Hao got off the car behind him and first helped Mr. Shu get off the car. Then he saw Ruan Jiaojiao bulging her eyes in anger in the distance. He couldn't help but smile gently. He probably knew what she was thinking. His sister, like Ruan Jianguo, was very protective of her son. He stepped forward and held her hand quietly, comforting her silently.
"Big brother?" Feeling the strength in Ruan Hao's hand, Ruan Jiaojiao raised her head and looked at him.
"Just be yourself and don't care about other people's opinions." Ruan Hao said with a smile, looking at her eyes with a gentle light.
Ruan Jiaojiao pouted, although she was still unhappy, but under Ruan Hao's gentle and doting gaze, she still nodded obediently.
"Please come in." Over there, several adults had finished their greetings, and Madam Xin and Xin Bo personally welcomed them in.
Shu Jie subconsciously looked for Ruan Jiaojiao before she took a step. Madam Xin was standing next to her. She followed her line of sight and saw Ruan Jiaojiao, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
