Chapter 228 - 228 228 Jealousy Large and Small (8)_1

Chapter 228: Chapter 228: Jealousy, Large and Small (8)_1 Chapter 228: Chapter 228: Jealousy, Large and Small (8)_1 “Ha ha ha ha…” The Ruanlin Family laughed heartily.

Holding her tightly! Truly loving her with all his heart!

When the Ruanlin Family led Ruan Jiaojiao out again, her complexion had returned to normal. Seeing the boys still comparing their new clothes, she spat out, “A bunch of good-for-nothings! Is our house running short on clothes for you to wear?”

“Nanny, this is yours, you should take a look.” Ruan Hao saw the Ruanlin Family come out and immediately handed her the clothes that were set aside, while also casting an approving glance at Ruan Jiaojiao.

Ruan Jiaojiao blinked innocently and smiled at her handsome older brother, who was like a prince, snuggling up to him and asking for a hug.

The Ruanlin Family glanced over, reached out to take the clothes, examined the style, and felt the material, knowing that this clothing wasn’t cheap. She breathed a sigh of relief and, for a moment, felt extremely embarrassed about her earlier reaction. At her age, she hadn’t expected to feel such jealousy.

Over the years, Shu Jiao had really been an impeccable daughter-in-law.

She folded the clothes neatly and looked at Ruan Jie, “Which two sets are yours, bring them here for me to see.”

“This way, this way.” Ruan Jie hurriedly passed them over.

The Ruanlin Family held them up and examined them, then looked over at Xiu Xi who had stood silently in the corner without making a sound, and said helplessly, “They’re still a bit too big.”

“That’s right, Xiaoxi doesn’t have any!”

As soon as the Ruanlin Family looked at Xiu Xi, everyone remembered that while they all had clothes, Xiu Xi didn’t!

Ruan Jianguo was also taken aback for a moment. He looked at the pile of clothes; though Ruan Wei and Ruan Lei were close to his age and could share clothes with him, they each only had one set, so it definitely couldn’t be taken from them. Ruan Jiaojiao did have many, but those were girls’ clothes.

Ruan Jianguo looked apologetically at Xiu Xi, “Xiaoxi, your aunt didn’t know about you, otherwise she would have definitely sent you something. How about this, next time we go to town, I’ll buy you two sets!”

“I’ll give him one of mine.” Ruan Jie said resolutely.

“Yours are too big.” The Ruanlin Family said, before turning to head back inside the house. When she came out, she was holding a set she had bought from the supply and marketing cooperative, which she handed to Xiu Xi, “This one’s from Nanny, not as good as the others, but it’s new too. Do you want it, Xiaoxi?”

Xiu Xi nodded.

He didn’t covet their clothes at all.

To him, the clothes were nothing more than an outer layer.

With her mood restored, the Ruanlin Family had the heart to look at Ruan Jiaojiao’s pile of things. She picked them up one by one, held them up against Ruan Jiaojiao for sizing, then folded them neatly and set them aside, with the one that Ruan Wei had dirtied placed separately.

“Little sister’s clothes are all so pretty.” Little Fatty, holding his own clothes, looked enviously at Ruan Jiaojiao’s clothes, which were unlike theirs, not just blue, but also grey and black.

Ruan Jiaojiao’s clothes were all gentle colors, each with a different style.

“This looks good too, little sister, try it on.” Ruan Jie picked up a hairband adorned with little flowers and was about to put it on Ruan Jiaojiao’s head.

The Ruanlin Family grabbed it before he could poke Ruan Jiaojiao’s forehead, smoothed the hair by her ears, and then gently placed it on her.

The moment it was put on her, the usually silent Xiu Xi was the first to offer praise, “Pretty!”

“Yep, little sister looks like a princess, and we’re the princes!” Ruan Qun said.

“Pfft, what kind of prince is as short as you? You’re at most a guard!” Little Fatty retorted, and then immediately, thumping his chest, exclaimed, “A prince should be like me!”
