"You..." This was the first time Miao Shulan was confronted by her eldest son like this. She was choked for a moment and didn't know how to say what she had to say.
"..." Ruan Xi raised his eyebrows slightly. Since the other party didn't say it out loud, he didn't want to retort first. He simply shrugged his shoulders and planned to take a shower and change clothes in the room. He raised his hand naturally, and then, he heard Miao Shulan screaming like thunder out of nowhere. The distance was too close and almost scared Ruan Xi.
Ruan Xi subconsciously took a step back. When she lowered her eyes slightly, she saw the poisonous snake in her hand. She immediately realized what was going on. The corners of her lips curled up slightly coldly. She raised her hand and handed the poisonous snake to Miao Shulan, "Mom, are you afraid of this too?"
His nonchalant tone and expression made it seem as if what he was holding in front of his mother was not a poisonous snake but a lollipop. Miao Shulan was so frightened that she screamed and hid behind her husband in an instant.
"What are you doing! Using a poisonous snake to scare your mother? Is this what we usually teach you?" Ruan Mingxuan was not afraid of snakes. Although he was also scared, he still managed to remain calm while teaching his eldest son. Suddenly, he felt that the eldest son in front of him was very unfamiliar, as if he had never seen him before.
"You're scared like this? I'm really... sorry. After all, I was almost bitten by this poisonous snake in the woods just now. I fought hard to get home alive." Ruan Xi still spoke calmly, but the content of his words made people tremble with fear.
Ruan Jun also hid behind his father. The two people in front of him had always been his solid support. His arrogant attitude suddenly soared. "Dad, I'm scared! Look at my brother, his behavior is too bad. Not only did he scare me, he even dared to scare Mom. Dad, you have to teach him a lesson!"
"Ruan Xi, this is how you treat your mother and your brother! Hurry up and throw that thing out!" Ruan Mingxuan became more and more stern, and he played the role of a strict father vividly. Unfortunately, Ruan Xi knew exactly what kind of person he was. The original owner might be afraid, but he, Ruan Xi, would not be afraid at all.
"Are you scared now?" Ruan Xi looked at Ruan Jun who was hiding behind his mother with a smile. The coldness in her eyes scared Ruan Jun so much that he shivered and shrank back. But then he felt that it was too embarrassing and stuck his head out to continue shouting.
When the living room was in a state of excitement, a weak and vicissitudes of life female voice was heard. Ruan Xi subconsciously looked up and saw an old lady with a pale face and not very good spirits walking towards her with the support of the housekeeper.
"What's going on? Xiaojun, why can't you say anything at home? Why do you have to ask your brother to go to the forest behind?" Although the old lady looked weak, her words and actions were quite dignified. When she glanced at them, everyone fell silent subconsciously.
Ruan Xi looked at the old lady and couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly, his pupils trembling slightly.
"Grandma..." Ruan Xi called out unconsciously, because the old woman in front of him looked exactly like his grandmother who passed away in his previous life. It was as if that kind and warm old woman had returned to his side, causing his heart to tremble slightly.
"You're so rude that you can't even call me grandma, right?" Ruan Mingxuan's shout brought Ruan Xi back to her senses from her daze. She then remembered that after her grandfather passed away, her grandmother became the greatest authority in the family, and her grandchildren always called her "grandmother" instead of the more intimate "grandma".
"Grandma, I'm sorry, did I disturb you? Please sit down first." Although the aura was completely different, Ruan Xi would unconsciously soften his voice when facing this old woman.
"Go back to your room and wash and change your clothes first. You can tell me about this matter in detail later." The old lady was cold and stern, and treated everyone equally. Not only her grandchildren were afraid, but her children were also afraid. No one dared to say a word at this time.
"Yes, Grandma, I'll go right away." Ruan Xi responded respectfully. Just as he ran to the stairs, he seemed to realize that he was still holding a snake in his hand. He turned back to the housekeeper and said, "Please help me collect it. Don't throw it away."
Even if it's useless, at least it can help people, so it's worth it.
Miao Shulan and Ruan Jun, mother and son, were indeed upset. They glared at Ruan Xi's back with hatred, but they could do nothing.
Ruan Huaqing quickly walked over and supported the old lady, saying gently, "Mother, the dishes are on the table. Why don't you eat first? If there's anything, we can talk after dinner."
"Um."
