Chapter 688: Chapter 688 The Sister Over There (3)_1 Chapter 688: Chapter 688 The Sister Over There (3)_1 “Did he go to the store with his dad?” Ruanlin Family’s matriarch wondered, but they didn’t have a phone at ho to call the store and ask, so she could only go back first.
anwhile, Ruan Jiaojiao and Little Fatty couldn’t help but think of Ruan Wei’s unusual behavior yesterday, feeling that he was up to sothing behind their backs.
By noon, Ruan Wei still hadn’t returned, but Ruan Jiandang had co back. Knowing his son had left early in the morning and still wasn’t ho, he too was surprised.
The business at the store was so good now that he was too busy to look after Ruan Wei, and being close to the main house, he had never worried about this son.
Upon hearing that Ruan Wei had left early in the morning, he even asked Ruanlin Family’s matriarch where he had gone, which almost made her hit him with a broom out of anger.
At eleven or twelve years of age, it wasn’t likely that he would get lost, but Ruan Wei’s departure without discussing it with the family still infuriated them, especially Ruanlin Family’s matriarch. As ti went on, her complexion grew increasingly grim.
It wasn’t until after three in the afternoon that everyone saw Ruan Wei, with his backpack on his back, walking shakily back ho from the main road.
He seed to want to slip through the small path in front of the gate, but Ruan Jiaojiao and the others were waiting right there for him; naturally, they wouldn’t let him get away. Ruan Feng and the others sward over, grabbed his backpack, and captured him.
Already feeling guilty, Ruan Wei looked even more frightened upon seeing Ruanlin Family’s matriarch’s displeased face.
“Do you want to co clean yourself, or should I ask?” Ruanlin Family’s matriarch questioned.
Ruan Wei glanced at Ruanlin Family’s matriarch, then at his brothers and Ruan Jiandang beside him.
“Big brother Wei, please tell us where you went. You don’t know how worried we all were about you not being at ho,” Ruan Jiaojiao stepped forward and gently tugged his hand, urging in a soft voice.
“I’m sorry,” Ruan Wei apologized, bowing his head.
He glanced again at Ruanlin Family’s matriarch and Ruan Jiandang, and then hesitantly answered, “I went to Fengye Village.”
Upon hearing this, Ruan Jiandang, who had been silent, changed his expression.
Fengye Village.
That’s where Liao Zhaoji was now married.
It wasn’t that he had deliberately sought this information, but since it was a nearby town, there were always relatives visiting back and forth, and inevitably, he would hear so news.
After Liao Xinmin passed away, and Liao Laifu beca paralyzed, the Li Family imdiately married Liao Zhaoji off to a man they had previously negotiated a price with, receiving a dowry of two hundred yuan.
The man was a middle-aged bachelor without any close relatives. He had had several wives die on him, enjoyed drinking, and would beco abusive when intoxicated.
Marrying such a man, it wasn’t hard to imagine what kind of life Liao Zhaoji would have, but the Ruan Family had long stopped caring, so they never paid any attention.
Unexpectedly, more than two years later, they were hearing about her again.
After all, she was a woman who had lived with them for over a decade. At first hearing of her, Ruan Jiandang couldn’t help but fall silent, his expression complex.
“Did you go to see your mother, or did she co to see you?” Ruanlin Family’s matriarch inquired.
Ruan Wei pursed his lips and fell silent for a few seconds before replying, “She ca to see .”
“What did she want?” Ruanlin Family’s matriarch pressed.
“…” Ruan Wei remained silent for a long while before saying, “My sister… it’s not…” Realizing he had misspoken, Ruan Wei imdiately covered his mouth, glanced at Ruan Jiaojiao, and looked very guilty, “She had a daughter, and the child fell ill.”
“Did she co to ask you for money?” Ruanlin Family’s matriarch asked with a sneer.
“…” Ruan Wei didn’t say anything, but his expression spoke volus.
