Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Making Mischief (4)_1

The Ruan Family owned a plot of land at the head of the village. When the Ruanlin Family divided their property, they had already decided to build a house there, so this land was allocated to Ruan Jianguo. The plot was large enough not only for a sizable building but also for a spacious courtyard.

Since this was the first family in the sixth brigade to build a multi-storied house, even the Captain had come, surrounded by a crowd filled with not just villagers but also onlookers from neighboring villages.

After all, few built multi-storied houses in those days, and even if one didn’t have their own, it was good to indulge one’s eyes on others’ constructions.

The crowd buzzed with discussions, each person’s comments laced with envy, and while there were some sour remarks, the Ruan Family just pretended not to hear them.

Ruan Jiaojiao spotted the little antagonist among the crowd. The little antagonist had followed the Ruanlin Family to deliver some items previously, and now, upon seeing Ruan Jiaojiao, made her way through the crowd to take Jiaojiao’s little hand, as if very familiar with her.

Ruan Jiaojiao smiled at him and continued to observe with curiosity. She noticed many familiar faces in the crowd, including the male protagonist, Xiu Xun, who was talking with a few of her brothers not far away.

Ruan Jie was the first to spot his sister and after saying something to Zhao Hu next to him, hurried over, "Sister should go play with brother. Mom is busy right now, so brother will take care of you."

"Okay," Ruan Jiaojiao nodded and followed him toward that direction.

But they hadn’t gone far when they were stopped by Ruan Jianguo. It’s said one is in high spirits during joyous events.

Ruan Jianguo was very happy today, his smile so wide it almost reached his ears. He scooped up Ruan Jiaojiao and tossed her in the air, causing her to scream, while he laughed heartily.

"There, there, don’t be afraid, my treasure. Look there, this will be our home in the future. Once Dad brings Mom back, our family will be reunited," Ruan Jianguo said with a smile.

Ruan Jiaojiao wrapped her arms around his neck, nodding obediently, and looked in the direction he was pointing. There stood not only her three uncles but also the Captain and some other influential people from the brigade.

It seemed that they really placed great importance on Ruan Jianguo’s house-building project.

With Jiaojiao in his arms, Ruan Jianguo walked over there. Ruan Jie had no other choice but to follow.

"Yo, Ruan Jianguo, I didn’t realize you had such a delicate little daughter!" A man stood out in the crowd, dressed in formal attire, his features handsome and carrying the sharp aura of a military man, not appearing to be an ordinary person.

Ruan Jianguo laughed heartily, holding Ruan Jiaojiao as he pointed to the man, "My treasure, call him Uncle Lu."

"Uncle Lu," Ruan Jiaojiao said obediently, her new clothes and pretty appearance, fair and tender, softening even Lu Zhiwei’s gaze, who, after being married for over twenty years and having only sons, couldn’t help but soften his gaze as if afraid his sharpness would frighten her.

He motioned to a handsome young man about the same age as Ruan Jie, standing next to him, "Good girl, Jiaojiao. This is your brother, Lu Xian. Just call him Brother Xian."

The last time Lu Xian had injured Ruan Jie’s head, Lu Zhiwei had brought Lu Xian over to apologize, but Ruan Jiaojiao wasn’t home, so she hadn’t met Lu Xian before. Now, seeing the father and son, who looked so alike, she realized that this was the boy who had hurt her brother.

She was naturally protective of her family, and upon seeing the young man, she no longer found him as appealing as she initially had.
