Chapter 483: Chapter 483: A Little Girl Who Looks Like Her (5)_1 Chapter 483: Chapter 483: A Little Girl Who Looks Like Her (5)_1 She opened it in front of the Ruan Family.

Ruan Wei gasped in shock!

He doubted whether he had married into the family! Otherwise… it was his wife who had emptied her father’s house!

What she took out was actually twice the amount of money!

A full forty thousand!

This!

The Ruanlin Family didn’t know what kind of expression to make.

Ruan Jiaojiao buried her head in her bowl, trying her best to hide the corners of her mouth that were turning up.

In fact, she knew that what her mother took out was only the tip of the iceberg; the Shu Family was very wealthy, otherwise Shu Lang wouldn’t have been able to casually come up with twenty thousand. Although he made good money doing scientific research, it wasn’t to that extent.

Most of that money was still from the Shu Family.

It was just that the Shu Family had become more low-key after years of turmoil, living simply, and there was no use for all that money. In such a place, even a slight mistake could easily be seized by others, so it was better for Shu Jiao to spend it in this backwater without attracting much attention.

“This is the dowry my dad prepared for Jiaojiao.” Because it was really too much, she couldn’t deposit it in the bank, fearing it would have too great an impact, so she kept it at home.

“…” Ruan Wei, what to do, he felt like he was living off a woman.

“…” Ruanlin Family, truly at a loss for words.

“…” Xiu Xi. Staring at those bundles of money, he didn’t know what to think, frowning tightly.

Only Ruan Jiaojiao was laughing, snickering, finding her grandma’s and her dad’s reactions hilarious.

In the end, the money stayed.

Because the Ruanlin Family realized that this amount, which seemed enormous to them, might really be nothing for the Shu Family, and returning it might even make them seem unsophisticated.

After dinner, Ruan Jiaojiao took a bath and went up to her room to sleep. As she lay down, she scanned the room and felt something was missing, but couldn’t remember what it was. After tossing and turning a bit, she fell asleep.

Outside the window, a little goat was nibbling on a bunch of purple flowers…

The next day, Shu Jiao and Ruan Jiaojiao went to school together. Ruan Jiaojiao entered the classroom, while Shu Jiao went to the principal’s office.

Little Fatty and others were curious about what Shu Jiao was doing at the school and asked Ruan Jiaojiao, “Jiaojiao, what’s your aunt doing at school?”

Ruan Jiaojiao looked at Ruan Wei with a secretive smile, “I won’t tell you now, but in a little while, Jiaojiao will give Wei brother a surprise.”

“Just for him?” Little Fatty was somewhat dissatisfied, shooting a glare at Ruan Wei beside him.

Ruan Wei was overjoyed, “What kind of surprise is it, why can’t you tell us now?”

“…” Ruan Jiaojiao thought this brother was too silly, “If I tell you now, would it still be a surprise?”

Ruan Wei was stunned, then burst into laughter, scratching the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly, “Right, hahaha…”

Little Fatty felt increasingly jealous, but Ruan Jiaojiao teased him, “Actually, Jiaojiao has prepared a surprise for Lei brother too, but you’ll have to wait. It might be a year before I can give it to you.”

Now even Ruan Feng was curious; what kind of surprise needed one to two years of preparation.

However, Ruan Jiaojiao simply wouldn’t say, so they could only return to their respective classrooms.

But by the time recess arrived, Ruan Feng and the others learned about it.

Because there were quite a few first-graders who had older siblings, Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi had recently become well-known in the school, and now they were going to skip grades. Naturally, this would be the talk among them.
