Chapter 4: Taking Advantage of Seniority
"What are you daydreaming about? Catch him!"
Seeing that she was slow to act, Old Lady Ruan became impatient and urged her no further.
Ruan Fu suddenly retracted her hand and looked to the side.
"Secretary, my grandmother's suggestion is fair, but Zhijun is the eldest brother after all. He should go first in this matter."
Just one simple sentence, and Liu Mei's face turned pale.
I finally came up with this backup plan, and I thought it was foolproof. But the fate of this place has to fall on that little bitch.
What if Zhiguo comes to catch him? Wouldn’t all my efforts be in vain?
Thinking of this, she quickly said, "It doesn't matter who comes. Don't go around saying that your family bullied you."
"Since it's the same no matter who comes, let Brother Zhiguo go first." Ruan Fu said nothing and simply put her hands behind her back, looking like a piece of ashes.
How could this damn girl become so difficult to deal with? Liu Mei's eyelids were twitching.
Ruan Fu looked to the side and said deliberately: "Brother Zhiguo, you are a grown man, you are not afraid, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense, I'll do it."
Ruan Zhiguo was a reckless person and was a little overwhelmed by Ruan Fuyi's provocation.
He just shook off his mother's hand, walked forward and grabbed a ball of paper.
"See? Why don't you just pick one at random? Don't go too far. We're family after all. It's like someone is deliberately trying to harm you."
"Brother Zhiguo is right."
Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Ruan Fu smiled and continued to use the method of provoking, "Open the paper ball and take a look."
"Open it if you want. It will help you face the reality and realize that you are not destined to study!"
Ruan Zhiguo suddenly became angry and tore open the paper ball angrily.
"Zhiguo!" Liu Mei came to her senses and quickly reached out to stop him, but she was a step too late.
Ruan Zhiguo stood there in a daze, his face full of disbelief.
Ruan Fu finally found an opportunity, but she would not give the other party any room to regret.
He quickly leaned over to take a look and exclaimed, "Oh my god, Brother Zhiguo was caught farming? That's great! Now I have something to study!"
She shook the hand of the teacher next to her, her tone excited.
"Teacher Sun, please come all the way here. I will definitely return to school next semester."
"Are you talking like a human being, you dead girl?"
After working so hard for so long, I ended up shooting myself in the foot.
Liu Mei was annoyed and anxious, and said sternly, "Farming is so hard, and you insist on taking Zhiguo's way. How will he live in the future?"
There is no need to confront her at this time. Playing dumb is the best way. Ruan Fu blinked with an innocent look on her face.
"So many people were watching, and Zhiguo chose the paper ball himself, so why are you blaming me?"
The people around couldn't stand it anymore, and they all joined in the fun, not caring about the situation.
"There's nothing wrong with this. God loves this girl and wants her to continue her studies."
"That's right. Everyone is watching us. I can't go back on my word."
"Dajiang's wife, forget it, your son is not destined to study!"
Liu Mei was shaking with anger. These words were too harsh to hear, but she had no way of refuting them. She couldn't possibly reveal that both pieces of paper had "farming" written on them!
Ruan Zhiguo looked a little embarrassed. He threw down the paper ball and walked away angrily.
"Zhiguo!" Liu Mei felt sorry for her son and quickly chased after him.
Ruan Fu glanced around and said with a smile, "Grandma, since I'm continuing my studies, the Lai family's betrothal gift can only be returned, or I can let my younger sister marry into their family."
So many people are watching, why not add some more firewood to make the fire burn even brighter.
Old Mrs. Ruan had a gloomy expression and didn't have time to speak.
Instead, Ruan Lanxiang was so angry that she jumped up and down.
"That man is dying of illness. I won't marry him and suffer like that. Stop talking nonsense!"
"Grandma clearly told me that I could go there and enjoy myself, but why do you say that it's a punishment? Could it be that your granddaughter is a weed and your daughter is a treasure?"
After a few words of argument here, the surrounding area was in an uproar.
"They actually married into that family. The Lai family is sick and almost dying. How could they have the heart to marry their daughter off to a kang?"
"It's all because she gave too much betrothal gifts. This old lady is so heartless and obsessed with money."
"This family looks like decent people, but why do they do so many immoral things?"
These comments were like knives, stabbing the Ruan family members so hard that they were filled with shame and couldn't even raise their heads.
This is exactly the effect Ruan Fu wants.
In the past, she was concerned about everything and swallowed all the grievances she suffered just to maintain the reputation of the Ruan family.
But the result is that he is exploited and exploited.
Since that’s the case, she might as well make a big deal out of it. After all, those with bare feet are not afraid of those who wear shoes, so she took the risk.
Old Mrs. Ruan is very concerned about her reputation, so she wants to make it known to everyone to see if the other party dares to bully her again!
Old Mrs. Ruan bulged her eyes and was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She wished she could crush the piece of meat in front of her to death.
What a coincidence! Why bring this up in front of so many people?
My daughter Ruan Lanxiang will have to look for a husband in a few years. If the Ruan family's reputation is ruined, who around here would dare to marry her?
People around me kept pointing and talking, and things were about to get out of control...
Old Mrs. Ruan thought quickly and used her best skills.
He made a gurgling sound in his throat, rolled his eyes, and fell straight back.
"mom!"
Ruan Lanxiang screamed and hurried forward, shouting.
But Old Mrs. Ruan had her eyes closed and didn't react at all.
Everyone around was in an uproar, and the few people who had originally spoken for Ruan Fu fell silent.
Although they like to watch the fun and gossip, they don't want to get into trouble.
Old Mrs. Ruan is old, could she have really fainted from anger?
That would be a troublesome matter, and no one present could escape responsibility.
Daughter-in-law Sun Hongxia was secretly happy.
The old lady fainted just in time!
This time, we have to pin the crime of filial piety on Ruan Fu. Let’s see how arrogant this damn girl can be in the future.
"Fuzi, why are you so ignorant? You're going to make your grandma mad!"
"It's okay if you act like a fool in front of me, but how can an old man stand this kind of torture!"
"Hurry up and kneel down to apologize to your grandma!"
Ruan Fu glared at her coldly, "Little Mom, you are confused. Grandma's eyes are closed. Even if I kneel for a whole day and night, she won't be able to see."
Sun Hongxia glared at her fiercely, wishing she had more mouths because she was left speechless by that silly girl.
"But I am truly filial. I can wake grandma up immediately." Ruan Fu said confidently. In fact, she saw through Grandma Ruan's plan at a glance.
This trick of taking advantage of one's seniority always works. When encountering troubles, as long as you faint at the "right moment", no matter how big the commotion is, it can be stopped.
In the past, Old Lady Ruan relied on this trick to keep the entire Ruan family under control, and would pretend to be dead and make excuses if she was not satisfied.
After all, no one wants to be criticized and called unfilial, and she always succeeds.
But this time, Ruan Fu will not let the other party get what he wants.
With a glance, I saw a stink bug lying on the table, and next to it was a basket of needles and thread for sewing shoe soles.
There is a way!
