Chapter 1146 - 1146 1146 Elders (8)

1146: Chapter 1146: Elders (8) 1146: Chapter 1146: Elders (8) “You just love to join in on the fun…” Wang Hehua glanced at her daughter, “But you mustn’t speak carelessly.”

“Mom, when have I ever spoken carelessly?” Li Xiang stamped her foot.

Everybody laughed again.

Leaving Li Zhong’s house, Yang Ruxin felt light-hearted and in very good spirits.

Not everyone was ungrateful, after all.

At least the three families she associated with were very decent and sincere in their support of her.

That was enough; life didn’t need to be perfect, did it?

Li Zhong’s house was next to the old Yang Family estate, separated by a mere three or four meters, close enough that if people were in their courtyards speaking loudly, they could hear each other.

So, even though Yang Ruxin didn’t want to pay attention to the old estate, she still overheard the voices from its courtyard, voices she had just listened to in a town shop yesterday.

Unexpectedly, they were at the old estate today.

“Dani…

no, Ruxin?” Just as Yang Ruxin had taken a few steps, the door of the old estate opened, and Tian Geng came out with Yang Baichuan, immediately spotting Yang Ruxin.

Yang Ruxin couldn’t avoid them and had to turn back with a glance: “Uncle Tian from the Tian Family.”

“I was just about to come over and check on you,” Tian Geng said with a smile, holding up the gift in his hand.

“I should’ve visited my cousin-in-law and you earlier, but I’ve been caught up.

Today is a good opportunity…”

“Uncle Tian, our family has severed ties with the Yang Family,” Yang Ruxin said with a slight smile.

“So, thank you for the thought…” Then she turned and walked away.

Yang Baichuan’s face darkened, but he didn’t dare say anything now.

“You child…” Tian Geng showed the helplessness of an elder.

“Even if you’ve severed ties, the bond of blood can never truly be cut…”

Yang Ruxin’s eyebrows lifted slightly.

“Let’s go.

This is some snacks I’ve brought for Xiaofeng and the others.

I haven’t seen them in over half a year…” Tian Geng, acting familiar, reached out to pull Yang Ruxin’s arm.

But Du Man stepped forward and pushed his arm away.

A flash of coldness crossed Tian Geng’s eyes, but he still showed a smile: “I am your uncle, an elder.

Look at how guarded you are…”

“Cousin, I told you not to go chasing after those who don’t care about you, but you wouldn’t believe me,” Yang Baihe, who came out at some unknown point, leaned against the door frame, cracking melon seeds and making snide comments.

“She’s a big boss now…”

Tian Geng turned to glance at Yang Baihe: “We are all family, no need for grudges to last overnight.

Baihe, as an elder, you shouldn’t be making sarcastic remarks…”

Yang Baihe pursed her lips, spat, and then turned back inside.

“Xinxin, don’t be so distant; after all, we are your maternal family, aren’t we?” Tian Geng was extremely patient.

“Since you say so, I would come off as unsympathetic to refuse again,” Yang Ruxin said with a smile.

“Well then, let’s go.”

However, just as they reached the edge of the village, they saw Guan Qingyue approaching from the opposite direction.

She looked listless, but the moment she saw Yang Ruxin, a smile appeared on her face: “Xinxin?” Then she hurried over and grabbed her hand, “Xinxin, I was wrong before, please forgive me…” She only realized there was someone else nearby after finishing her plea, causing her to furrow her brows.

“I’ve forgiven you,” Yang Ruxin replied with a smile, pulling her hand away.

“I’ve got things to do…” And with that, she turned and walked away under their astonished gazes.
