Chapter 595: Chapter 595 Self-Inflicted Woe (1)_1

She walked over lightly, peeked out from the yard and indeed saw that Xiu Xun was standing against the wall with his back to it, probably thinking that he wouldn’t be discovered this way.

"Why don’t you come in and watch?" Ruan Jiaojiao asked.

Xiu Xun’s body stiffened, then he turned his head to look over, and smiled a bit embarrassingly.

"Come in and watch, the wind is strong outside, it’s very cold," Ruan Jiaojiao said softly, tugging at his sleeve to pull him inside.

There were about twenty children in their village, and the Ruan Family accounted for most of them. Apart from Wa Yiting and Xiu Cheng, nearly all the other children had come to watch.

Xiu Cheng had also come the next day, but at that time he was chased away by her older brothers. Xiu Cheng had previously stolen her candy, thrown mud in her eyes, and caused her toothache for so long. In first grade, he’d also bullied her. Her older brothers all held grudges, anyone could come to watch, but they wouldn’t allow him to enter their yard.

As for Wa Yiting, she hadn’t come at all. Even Aunt Wu and her two male cousins were now sitting in the living room watching TV, day after day, arriving earlier than anyone else.

"Do you want to sit down? I’ll go to the kitchen to get you a stool?" Ruan Jiaojiao asked quietly, seeing his bashful appearance.

"No need, I’ll just stand here and watch, you go back inside, it’s cold outside," he said softly, as he looked at her fair little face being reddened by the cold wind.

Ruan Jiaojiao looked at his worn jacket and then at her down coat she was wearing, unsure of what to respond.

She remained silent for a while, then said, "Then you stand in this spot to watch, the wind isn’t so strong here." Ruan Jiaojiao pulled him to the side of the kitchen, saying this angle, although not too good, had a wall to block the wind, unlike in the yard where the wind was stronger.

"Mhm, you go inside," urged Xiu Xun.

Ruan Jiaojiao then turned and went back to the living room, sitting next to Ruan Jie. Ruan Jie reached out and touched her hand, finding it warm, he continued watching the TV.

However, his actions made Ruan Jiaojiao feel even more uncomfortable. After thinking for a while, she got up to look for Shu Jiao.

Shu Jiao and Shu Wen were still chatting, but they were speaking very softly. When Ruan Jiaojiao reached the door, she faintly heard a name, Liang Wei’an, but as soon as she entered, the conversation between the two stopped immediately.

Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t think too much of it.

Instead, she ran up to Shu Jiao and said, "Mom, where did big brother’s jacket he doesn’t want anymore go?"

"What’s up? Do you need it, Jiaojiao?" Shu Jiao asked.

"Can we give it to Xiu Xun? Since big brother can’t wear it anymore, and no one else will," Ruan Jiaojiao said.

"Who is Xiu Xun?" Shu Wen asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Shu Jiao’s expression changed subtly. She didn’t answer Shu Wen but instead looked at Ruan Jiaojiao and asked, "Jiaojiao, did you just see Xiu Xun?"

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded.

"What was he wearing?"

"Just his old jacket," Ruan Jiaojiao replied, somewhat confused.

Shu Jiao squat down in front of her, touched her little head, and said, "Jiaojiao, you’re still too young, there are things you don’t understand. From now on, keep your distance from Xiu Xun, alright? Mom doesn’t want you to have too much contact with him."

"Why?" Ruan Jiaojiao was truly puzzled now.

"Just listen to Mom, you don’t have to worry about these things. Your mom, dad, and grandma will handle everything. All you have to do is grow up happy," she said.
