Chapter 135 Irony
"I was saying, how could a mother like that give birth to someone as beautiful as you? You look smart and handsome."
She said this with a warm smile on her face.
Actually, Xie Guihua is not that ugly.
She is not tall and dresses rather simply.
Although it is not stunning, it is neat and clean.
It's just that her skin color is a little dark, her face looks a little haggard, and her hands have some rough cracks from years of hard work.
But compared with the fair and beautiful Ruan Chuxia, he looked gray and dirty.
"Well, since I'm related to you, I'll go upstairs first."
Jiang Yu paused after he finished speaking, and then added seriously.
"If there's anything, just shout and we'll hear you right away."
She was giving a kind reminder.
Jiang Yu knew that Xiao Zhiyu was still in the hospital.
There is neither a man to take charge nor other relatives to help.
It would be difficult for Ruan Chuxia to take care of Xiaojun alone.
So she gave a special reminder.
Ruan Chuxia gave her a grateful smile.
"Thank you, Sister Yu. I feel much more at ease with you guys here."
Seeing Jiang Yu enter the house, Ruan Chuxia gently took Xiaojun's hand and pulled her to her side.
Then he pulled Xiaojun over and slowly walked towards the door.
"Why did you take so long to open the door?"
As soon as the door opened a crack, Xie Guihua, who had been waiting outside for a long time, began to question him in an unfriendly tone.
"What are you nagging at that woman?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
Xie Guihua looked unhappy, with her brows slightly furrowed.
"snort."
She snorted in her heart, feeling that this child was becoming increasingly difficult to control.
When she looked at Xiaojun, who was being held by Ruan Chuxia, her eyes immediately became sharper and her tone became gloomy.
"You really acted well, like a good wife and mother... But don't forget, this child has nothing to do with you—"
She deliberately made her words particularly harsh.
Before she could finish her words, Xiaojun quickly shrank behind Ruan Chuxia.
Ruan Chuxia interrupted her immediately.
"You're not my real mother!"
Her expression had become very serious when she said this.
Xie Guihua was choked and stunned, as if someone was strangling her neck, and her expression suddenly changed from disdain to anger.
Then his eyes started to turn red, and after rolling around a few times, they turned completely red.
At this moment, it is time to get off work.
The yard gradually became lively. Some people were carrying their meals home, while others were taking a walk and chatting.
Although there aren't too many people, there are also some.
Ruan Chuxia didn't want to be watched and talked about at this time, so in order to avoid the situation getting out of control, she could only grit her teeth and suppress her dissatisfaction, lowered her head and silently opened the door.
"Come in."
Ruan Chuxia spoke in an indifferent tone.
Then he slowly pushed the bicycle into the yard, turned around and led the way in.
Her movements were neither hurried nor slow.
Seeing that she did not directly refuse her entry, Xie Guihua suppressed her dissatisfaction.
The moment you push open the door and walk into the yard.
Several people's eyes fell on the scene before them.
What comes into view is a bumpy and uneven dirt ground.
Various old items were piled up in a disorderly manner in the corner and scattered all over the floor.
Several old tiled houses have long faded and turned white, and large pieces of lime have peeled off the walls.
There were a few strings of bright red peppers and white garlic hanging under the eaves.
Xie Guihua, who had been a little expectant, suddenly felt like a bucket of cold water was poured on her.
"Xiao Zhiyu is at least a village head, and I heard you're a well-known figure now, right? Why is your living place so shabby?"
When she first arrived at the family compound, she imagined that Ruan Chuxia might live in a high-rise building with clean windows and a nice environment.
After asking around, I found out that it was a small courtyard with its own entrance and yard.
But when I came in, I saw that it was not a decent residence at all.
It is clearly a mess that has been in disrepair for many years and almost no one takes care of it.
Ruan Chuxia secretly felt lucky that she had been too busy to clean up the yard.
Otherwise I really don’t know how to deal with it.
She carried the vegetables straight into the kitchen and put them down. After coming out, she stood there and asked with a stern face, "Who asked you to come? You barged in like this without even saying hello?"
Seeing his daughter's cold expression, Ruan Dejun felt embarrassed and his anger was rising.
He couldn't help but widen his eyes and his voice became a little higher.
"What do you mean by that? Your mother and I came all the way here from our hometown, and it's fine if you're not welcoming, but why are you being so sarcastic? And they just came all the way here, and now they're practically frozen into popsicles, and they don't even have a sip of hot water? This is too much!"
After he said that, he pushed away Ruan Chuxia who was blocking the door.
After a few steps, he led people straight to the main hall.
The young couple standing nearby looked slightly embarrassed when they heard this.
The woman muttered under her breath.
"I'm afraid she's been in the city for too long and is starting to dislike us, her relatives from back home."
Ruan Chuxia frowned slightly, glanced at the couple carefully, and thought about it for a while before she finally remembered who they were.
The woman in front of her is her second sister-in-law, and the man next to her is her second brother.
They were Xie Guihua’s nephew and niece-in-law.
In other words, they are the son and daughter-in-law of Xie Guihua's brother.
Logically speaking, they are the closest family to Xie Guihua in this generation.
But the problem is that Xie Guihua herself is Ruan Chuxia's stepmother.
And her "brother" is naturally not Ruan Chuxia's uncle.
This level of kinship seems very distant and even a little far-fetched.
The more realistic situation is that Ruan Chuxia is now a single mother living with her child.
So, she just calmly told Xiaojun to go back to his room quickly and remember to lock the door.
Then he turned around and went to the kitchen to boil water.
And here in the main hall...
Xie Chao and Zhang Fenglian stared at every visible spot in the room.
Looking at Xie Guihua, she was much more decisive than them all. She took a step and walked straight into the bedroom.
Her eyes scanned the area and quickly landed on the dressing table.
I saw the bottle of vanishing cream at first glance.
Almost instinctively, without thinking twice, she raised her hand and stuffed it directly into her pocket.
But when she turned over the drawer to continue "searching", she found that the drawer was locked.
No matter how hard she pulled, it wouldn't open.
I felt extremely frustrated at that moment, but I also knew that I couldn't pry it open by force, so I had to give up with an unhappy look on my face.
"Mom, I'm hungry."
The puppy in my arms muttered.
"Be patient for a moment, and ask your aunt to treat us to a feast later!"
Zhang Fenglian hurried to comfort her son.
Her own stomach was empty, and she even skipped breakfast.
I didn’t even make lunch today, just to take advantage of this opportunity to eat more delicious food.
As they were talking, Ruan Chuxia walked in with a thermos.
She frowned slightly, and her clear eyes quickly swept over the people in the room, and she immediately understood something.
