Chapter 2836 Extra: Lu Xi (13)
Naturally, he also liked Ruan Jiaojiao, who he cared about the most. Every day, she kept calling him brother, which made him feel very happy.
As for Xu Xu, Lu Yu was also concerned about him. Seeing that he had no contact with the Ruan family for the time being, he felt a little relieved.
At the beginning of February, the New Year arrived.
Lu Yu had already become very familiar with the Ruan family. As expected, he scored 100 points in the final exam, and he, Ruan Chi, and Ruan Jie were all ranked first. Zhao Li was very happy. Not only did she give him a lot of New Year's money, but she also allowed him to go out every day during the winter vacation.
Lu Zishu also came every day, eating at Ruan's house every three or five days, and he gained several pounds, which made Zhao Li marvel.
After the Spring Festival, on the 16th day of the first lunar month, Lu Yu came to the Ruan family again. As soon as he entered the Ruan family, he felt that it was particularly quiet inside.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard a small cry from the second room. His heart tightened when he heard it, because he recognized that it was Ruan Jiaojiao's voice.
He walked in quickly. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a woman poking Ruan Jiaojiao's forehead: "Why are you crying? You are born with a bad life! You have ruined your good life with your crying! No wonder your mother doesn't want you anymore!"
She was very strong, and poked the petite person in front of her and made her retreat back and finally sit on the ground.
But the woman didn't stop yet. She looked down at Ruan Jiaojiao who was crying breathlessly on the ground, with disgust in her eyes: "Don't cry, if you cry again, I will throw you to the back mountain and let the big insect take you away!"
In response to her, Ruan Jiaojiao cried even louder.
The disgust in the woman's eyes was even worse, but apart from poking her forehead, she didn't dare to really do anything to Ruan Jiaojiao, for fear of leaving any marks that would be seen by her family. She could only spit and reached out to pull her up from the ground, and then she saw Lu Yu standing at the door with anger in his eyes.
Liu Zhaodi was startled and her face turned pale, because she was not sure how much Lu Yu had seen and heard. She smiled reluctantly: "When did Xiao Yu come? Why didn't you make any noise?"
And Lu Yu, who was watching this scene, felt that his heart was dug out alive.
In his previous life, when he was good friends with Ruan Chi, his mother had left long ago, so he only heard from his mother that Ruan Jiaojiao had a disease when she was very young, and it seemed to be related to her.
But the details were unclear. It was not until now that he suddenly remembered that in March of this year, Ruan Jiaojiao would fall into a ditch and get a serious illness!
He ignored Liu Zhaodi and walked forward quickly to pick up the crying and trembling little person on the ground.
The little person was crying so hard that his voice was hoarse, his face was covered with tears, and his little body was still trembling in his arms.
Lu Yu was really angry and hurt, and his heart was broken.
He raised his head and glanced at Liu Zhaodi coldly. Liu Zhaodi's face changed in shock and she took two steps back. When she thought that the boy in front of her was going to hit her, she saw Lu Yu holding Ruan Jiaojiao in his arms and walking away without looking back.
Lu Yu was really angry, but the other party was Ruan Chi's mother, so he naturally couldn't do anything. He could only hold Ruan Jiaojiao and leave.
He often came to Ruan's house these days and was very familiar with Ruan's family. He held her and went to the back kitchen of the big house. He used tongs to take out a black iron can from the stove, which contained a can of hot water.
Lu Yu poured the hot water into the basin and washed Ruan Jiaojiao's face.
