After Ruan Jie and Chen Weidong left, Yue Haofeng and Ruan Changsheng still sat with Ruan Changfu in the room and talked. Ruan Xi put the lecture tickets in the room, and went to clean up the room with Qian Chuan and Ruan Cuizhi to arrange accommodation for several people tonight.
Although there were people at home, Ruan Cuizhi and others were busy entertaining guests, but the three working girls did not give themselves a day off. They silently returned to the workshop after dinner and sat down, continuing to operate the sewing machine.
The sound of the sewing machine turning kept coming from the main room.
Ruan Qiuyue followed behind Ruan Xi and asked, "Big sister, can I sleep with you tonight?"
Ruan Xi turned around and nodded at her, "There are not enough rooms, you sleep with me."
Ruan Qiuyue pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay." Ruan
Qiuyue slept with Ruan Xi, and Ruan Hongjun and Ruan Hongbing slept in another empty room with Ruan Changfu.
Ruan Cuizhi and the others spread out the cold mats and quilts, and went to the kitchen to boil hot water.
In the evening, after the three girls got off work on time, the family washed up and returned to their rooms to prepare for bed.
Ruan Xi and Ruan Qiuyue hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally they were not sleepy. They turned off the lights and lay on the bed and chatted with their eyes open. The content followed the topic, and they talked about whatever came up. In short, there were many things to talk about.
Ruan Xi asked Ruan Qiuyue curiously: "By the way, did Ye Qiuwen go back later?"
Ever since Ruan Changsheng and Qian Chuan went out to sell clothes for the first time, Ruan Xi met Ye Qiuwen on the street, and she never saw her again. Now more than three years have passed, and she suddenly remembered and asked.
Ruan Qiuyue turned her head and looked at Ruan Xi in the night, "They came back during the Chinese New Year this year. Didn't Lu Yuanzheng graduate from college last summer? They planned to get married, so they went back together."
Ruan Xi was curious, "Getting married?"
Ruan Qiuyue nodded, "Although both parents were unhappy, they have been together for so many years since high school, and it is impossible for them to disagree, so they set up a banquet in the hotel and let the two get married."
Ruan Xi smiled and said, "This Lu Yuanzheng is really not bad, huh?"
He really made her realize the meaning of the four words "love is stronger than gold".
Ruan Qiuyue said, "It's OK. I think they look so harmonious together, but they don't look sweet at all. I think Lu Yuanzheng married her out of responsibility. Ye Qiuwen has been with him since high school, so he had to marry her."
Ruan Xi said, "It's good to have a sense of responsibility."
Not very interested in the touching love between the two, Ruan Xi asked, "What about your parents? Ye Qiuwen was born in a poor farm village. She was born in a poor farm village. She was born in a poor farm village. She was born in a poor farm village. She was born in a poor farm village. She was born in a poor farm village. She was born in a poor farm village. She ran away without saying a word and didn't contact her family for so many years. Suddenly she came back, so you forgive her?"
Ruan Qiuyue shrugged, "What is there to forgive or not forgive? She is the child you raised, no matter how bad she is, you have to bear it yourself. You can't really deny her, right? She hasn't been back for four years, it's not appropriate to beat or scold her, so let it be."
For the sake of face and peace, she let her and Lu Yuanzheng get married and let them live their lives.
In his heart, he just thought of raising this daughter in vain.
Ruan Qiuyue said, "Sister, do you think that Ye Qiuwen came to my parents to collect debts in this life? Maybe they owed Ye Qiuwen in their previous life. Or maybe they owed you in this life."
Ruan Xi smiled, "Then I have to thank Ye Qiuwen for helping me collect the debt?"
Ruan Qiuyue also smiled, "That's not necessary."
Ruan Xi recalled that when she hadn't been admitted to university yet, she stayed in her room every day except for eating and going to the toilet. At that time, Feng Xiuying often said that she was a debt collector, and she had heard it all.
Since the college entrance examination, the debt collector has completely become Ye Qiuwen.
Ruan Xi smiled for a while, then continued to ask Ruan Qiuyue: "After I left for college, how did they treat you? Did they still ignore you like before?"
Ruan Qiuyue shook her head, "After you left, they were completely disappointed with Ye Qiuwen, and Ruan Qiuyang was stupid and made trouble from time to time, but later they treated me very well. Mainly because I had good academic performance, and I was increasingly valued at home."
Ruan Xi took a breath, "That's pretty good. "It's good to live comfortably."
Ruan Qiuyue said, "They miss you too, and often nag you at home. They really want you to go back and see them."
Ruan Xi smiled, "It's nonsense to say they miss me. There's no affection between them and me."
The relationship between them and Ruan Qiuyue can be repaired a little bit. After all, Ruan Qiuyue was raised by them. Even if they are angry, aggrieved and have feelings in their hearts, it's impossible to have that with her.
She grew up in the countryside until she was sixteen years old, and was raised by Ruan Zhigao and Liu Xinghua.
And the second before she got the notice, Feng Xiuying was still indifferent to her and had no feelings for her at all. After getting the notice, her face changed immediately, and then she was thinking about her.
Where did this worry come from?
The relationship between her and them was not that different from the relationship between Ruan Jie and them. She had been feeding and lodging with them for three years, and it would be fine if she could buy them something to repay them in the future, but let's not talk about father-daughter, mother-daughter, etc.
They had so many children, and they didn't need a daughter like her before, and they don't need one now and in the future.
Ruan Qiuyue said, "I understand you, so I won't persuade you."
Ruan Xi and Ruan Qiuyue chatted until they fell asleep, and they woke up a little late the next day. Ruan Cuizhi didn't call them, and let them sleep a little longer. She covered the breakfast in the pot to keep it warm, and asked them to get up and eat.
It was already eight or nine o'clock when Ruan Xi and Ruan Qiuyue got up. They washed up and sat down to eat.
Ruan Changfu came back from outside when they were eating. He had something to do in the afternoon, so he didn't leave in a hurry after breakfast, but went out for a walk nearby.
Seeing Ruan Xi and Ruan Qiuyue eating breakfast, he greeted them, "You just got up."
Ruan Qiuyue yawned and said, "Well, we chatted too late last night."
Ruan Changfu asked again, "Xiaoxi, did you ask for leave today?"
Ruan Xi didn't react for a while, and subconsciously blurted out, "What leave?"
Ruan Changfu took a stool and sat down, "Of course I asked for leave from work."
"Oh." Ruan Xi lowered his head and took a mouthful of porridge, "I quit my job." It's been a year since I quit. Ruan
Changfu was stunned when he heard this, frowned and looked at Ruan Xi, "What did you say?"
Ruan Xi looked at him and said again, "I quit the job assigned by the school a long time ago, I don't want to do it anymore."
Ruan Changfu's eyes slowly sank, and suddenly he slammed the table.
The table was almost shaken by him, and Ruan Qiuyue was startled with a steamed bun in her hand.
Ruan Changfu stared at Ruan Xi, looking so angry that his hair stood up, and said in a serious voice: "Who asked you to quit? Such a big thing, you didn't even discuss it with your family? You just quit? This is a job in Beijing!"
Ruan Xi raised her head to look at him, frowned, and said unhappily: "What does it have to do with you?"
Ruan Changfu slammed the table again, "I'm your father! If it's not my business, whose business is it?"
Ruan Xi also came She slammed the chopsticks on the table with a bang, "You left me in the countryside for more than ten years and didn't care about me. Why didn't you say you were my father then? I tell you, Ruan Changfu, my grandpa, grandmother, aunts and uncles, everyone has the right to take care of my affairs, but you don't! You are Ye Qiuwen's father, go take care of her if you have the free time!"
Ruan Changfu was speechless, but his temper did not diminish at all, and his fists were clenched tightly together.
Ruan Xi stared at him, holding her breath and continued: "You think that you brought me to the city and provided me with food and shelter for three years, and all the previous things are written off, right? You are dreaming! Ruan Changfu, have you ever thought about it, if I am not the character I am now, if I am the character of Ruan Jie, if I still go to the city alone, facing Ye Qiuwen, Ruan Qiuyang and Feng Xiuying, what do you think I will be like in the end? Have you ever thought about it!"
Ruan Changfu clenched his fists and confronted Ruan Xi.
Of course, he didn't understand these words, because these words were all hypothetical.
Ruan Cuizhi was working in the main room and heard the noise, so she quickly got up and ran to the west room.
As soon as she entered the room, she smelled tension and asked, "What happened?"
Ruan Changfu was so angry that he turned around and said to Ruan Cuizhi, "Why are you asking me? She wants to resign and you just let her do it? She is a little child and doesn't know the importance of the matter, and you elders don't care about her?"
Ruan Cuizhi hesitated twice and didn't say anything.
Ruan Xi then said, "You are not qualified to talk to Third Aunt like that!"
Ruan Changfu's anger level soared, "She is her biological sister, I am her elder brother, how can I not be qualified?!"
Ruan Xi sneered, "You still know that you are her elder brother? When she was beaten by the man in her husband's house and was beaten all over her body, where was your elder brother? When she and Liu Xiong, that bastard, were arguing for divorce, and everyone in the countryside pointed at her spine and scolded her, where were you?! You probably don't even remember what her man's name is!"
Hearing this, Ruan Changfu turned his head and looked at Ruan Cuizhi again.
Ruan Cuizhi stood by the door with a frown on her face, pursed her lips and said nothing.
Ruan Changfu asked with a surprised expression: "When did it happen?"
Ruan Cuizhi didn't have much temper, and said: "The last man was Liu Xiong, and we've been apart for ten years."
Before Ruan Changfu could say anything, Ruan Xi continued: "Don't say that others don't sue you. When Uncle Wu got married, Aunt San stayed at home all the time. Her husband and children didn't show up at all, and you didn't notice it at all. If you noticed something wrong, you couldn't help asking! Even if you asked, no one would keep it a secret!"
Ruan Changfu looked at Ruan Cuizhi, choked and couldn't speak, and swallowed all the words he wanted to say.
Ruan Xi looked at him, "Do you have anything else to say?"
Ruan Changfu retracted his gaze to the ground, clenched his fists and stopped talking.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ruan Xi picked up the chopsticks and continued to eat.
Ruan Cuizhi didn't want to delay her work by talking about these trivial matters. Seeing that Ruan Changfu didn't say anything, she stood there hesitantly for a while and said, "Brother, if you don't have anything else to do, then I will continue to work..."
After that, she turned around and walked away, sat down in the main room and continued to work. After
Ruan Xi finished her meal and put down her bowl and chopsticks, Ruan Qiuyue, who had been silent, quickly piled her bowl on hers and picked up her chopsticks to wash them together. Ruan Xi took it from her hand and didn't let her wash it, after all, she was a guest.
Ruan Changfu sat at the table for a while, then got up, said hello to Ruan Cuizhi and went out to work.
After Ruan Changfu left, Ruan Qiuyue spoke up, "Did you really quit your job?"
Ruan Xi nodded and said, "If you don't quit, who will help Third Aunt and the others get rich?"
Ruan Qiuyue said, "It's true... it's a pity..."
Ruan Xi smiled, "I'm not destined to be an official, and I don't have my heart set on that. Deputy section chief, deputy director, director, whatever, they all have no appeal to me. I like making clothes and want to do what I like to do."
Ruan Qiuyue looked at her, "To be honest, sister, you are the person I admire the most. You dare to do things that others dare not do. I believe you must have your reasons. You are not being willful, and you are not doing things recklessly."
Ruan Xi smiled and said, "Thank you, Qiuyue."
The atmosphere became relaxed, and Ruan Qiuyue said again, "I'm going to be a sophomore in high school
now, and I'll be taking the college entrance exam in two years. Then I'll come over and be with you guys. It's boring at home, and it's more fun to be with you guys." Ruan Xi started to focus again, "There's a senior year now?"
Ruan Qiuyue nodded, "Yes, the school start time has been changed to fall. I happened to be in the fifth grade when it was changed, so I spent an extra half year in the fifth grade, a year and a half in total. Otherwise, I would have come here to go to college now."
The two finished washing the dishes while talking, and Ruan Hongjun and Ruan Hongbing came back from outside.
The two stood at the door, and Ruan Hongbing said, "Sister, you guys are up now, are you still going to the city to play?"
Ruan Xi looked at the time and saw that it was just in time for lunch if they rode to the city, so she said, "Let's go."
