Extra: Lu Zhen (14)
The little girl was very obedient. She tilted her head back and let him wipe her. She would burp from time to time. Seeing this, Lu Zhen's heart melted. He couldn't help but bend down and kiss her little face.
The little girl was raised by the Ruan family and her skin was soft and tender.
The moment their skin touched, Lu Zhen's eyes darkened and the words that had been buried in his heart came out unconsciously: "Jiaojiao, in this life, Brother Zhen will definitely love you more than anyone else and protect you for the rest of your life."
The little girl had stopped crying. Hearing this, she blinked and looked at him in confusion.
Lu Zhen couldn't help but kiss her little face again. He didn't put her down until he heard footsteps outside.
It was Ruan Lin who came back from outside, carrying a big bag in her hand. As soon as she entered the door, she shouted at the top of her voice. Ruan Jiaojiao immediately ran out on her short legs.
The grandmother and granddaughter hugged each other in the yard and kissed each other again and again.
"Why are your eyes red? Did you rub them?" After hugging her precious granddaughter and kissing her several times, Ruan Lin found that the little girl's eyes were a little red, and immediately frowned and asked.
"Grandma Ruan." Lu Zhen walked over from behind.
"Oh, it's Xiao Zhen who's here. You're here to look for Chi Zi and the others, right? Their grandpa and the others are practicing lion dance at the end of the village." According to the custom in Yuan Su, there will be some dragon and lion dance activities on the Lantern Festival. They will go door to door. Polite families will give some money for cigarettes, and the less wealthy will give rice or something. There aren't many things, but they just make it lively and festive.
"Is that so? I came at an unfortunate time." Lu Zhen hooked Ruan Jiaojiao's chin with his hand.
Seeing that the little guy ignored him because he had a grandmother, he didn't get angry when he waved his fat arm to open his hand, but just smiled.
"If you are free in the evening, you can also play with them. You live in the town, so you definitely can't have this." Ruan Lin said, while holding Ruan Jiaojiao and walking into the house.
Lu Zhen nodded, and picked up the big bag she had just picked up, while Ruan Lin refused.
Before she even stepped into the main hall, Liu Zhaodi from next door heard the noise and came out. When she saw the big bag in Lu Zhen's hand, her eyes lit up immediately, and she walked over in two or three steps, while yelling, "Mom, what is this?"
She was about to reach out and snatch the bag from Lu Zhen, but Lu Zhen cleverly avoided her.
Seeing Liu Zhaodi trying to grab the bag without saying a word, Ruan Lin's face suddenly turned dark: "What are you doing?!"
"Mom, I'm just curious. You went out just to buy this. What are these? They are so big..."
"What I bought and what does it have to do with you?" Ruan Lin glared: "These are all cloths for making new clothes for my darling. You are an aunt, but you don't even make clothes for her during the New Year. Why do you want to grab them when I, your grandmother, makes them? Do you have any shame?"
"Mom..." Liu Zhaodi shouted for mercy and looked at Lu Zhen with some uneasiness. She was really greedy for the bag of things, but she was more afraid that Lu Zhen would tell others what happened just now. If she did, she would definitely be scolded by Ruan Lin.
In his previous life, Lu Zhen knew that Ruan Linshi was good at talking, but when the relationship with the Ruan family really improved, Liu Zhaodi had already divorced Ruan Ershu, so he had never seen Ruan Linshi's fighting ability directly. Now he saw that she was speechless with a snap of her lips, and he could not help but be stunned.
"Okay, you are not needed here, go do what you need to do." Ruan Linshi glanced at her again, and when she turned to talk to Lu Zhen, her tone became gentle again: "Come in, Xiao Zhen, it's cold outside."
