Chapter 873: Chapter 873: Moving to Town (3)

“Jiaojiao, time for breakfast,” Hu Yun approached with a greeting, obviously asking a question she already knew the answer to.

Ruan Jiaojiao lifted her head to look at her and called out, “Auntie.”

“Ey, what a well-behaved child,” Hu Yun complimented with a smile, walking up to her and squatting down in front of her: “Jiaojiao, can Auntie ask you something?”

Upon hearing this, Ruan Jiaojiao took a sip of her milk, and when she tilted her head back, she gently lowered her eyelids to look at the tenderly smiling Hu Yun. Her gaze flickered, and as she put down the cup, she pretended to be all innocent and nodded, “Okay, Auntie, ask away.”

“Auntie wants to ask you, do you still remember my boy Xiaoxun, that Uncle? I remember you went to my house with him the last time; you two must have gotten along well, right?”

Ruan Jiaojiao wiped her little mouth and asked, “You mean Uncle Jiang?”

“That’s right, that’s right,” Hu Yun nodded, inexplicably bursting with excitement, gesturing grandly: “That Uncle Jiang, you got along well with him, right?”

Ruan Jiaojiao pursed her lips, gave no answer, just looked at her innocently.

Hu Yun was still caught up in her excitement and probably didn’t expect a reply. She continued to ask, “Have you been in touch these days? Since he left, has he ever called you, or sent a letter, mentioned anything about Xiu Xun?”

“Are you missing Xiu Xun, Auntie?” Ruan Jiaojiao asked.

Missing Xiu Xun?

Impossible!

Hu Yun scoffed internally, what’s there to miss about that deadbeat kid.

But in front of Ruan Jiaojiao, she pretended to be pining, “Yes, it’s been over a month, Auntie is worried, you know. How can this kid be so heartless, not even a message.”

Hu Yun’s voice choked up as she spoke, as if she truly missed Xiu Xun.

But little did she know that Ruan Jiaojiao had long seen through her poor acting. If she really missed him that much, how could she have endured treating him so harshly before and later simply traded him for ten thousand yuan?

Probably just wanting to get his contact information so she could continue asking for money.

Although Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t have a close relationship with Xiu Xun, seeing Hu Yun like this was quite disgusting.

Her eyes gleamed, and she said with a smile, “I have been in contact with Xiu Xun, and Uncle Jiang has also written to me.”

“Really??” Hu Yun’s eyes brightened at the news.

Ruan Jiaojiao nodded.

“Where’s the letter? The address? The phone number?”

“Oh, that… I don’t remember where I put it. We’re moving house today, so it might have been misplaced somewhere, I really can’t recall,” Ruan Jiaojiao acted distressed.

“…” Hu Yun.

Looking at the Ruan Family’s home now in disarray from moving, she pursed her lips and then said, “How about Auntie helps you move, and you think carefully about it, okay? Or just tell Auntie, and I’ll look for it myself.”

“I like to keep my letters in books, maybe it’s sandwiched between the pages of some book. If Auntie isn’t too busy, could you help Jiaojiao move the books, would that be okay?”

Hu Yun agreed without hesitation.

Because she was eager to get Jiang Bin’s contact information, she couldn’t wait to run upstairs to Ruan Jiaojiao’s room to help move the books. Ruan Wei was originally moving Ruan Jiaojiao’s books, but was taken aback when Hu Yun suddenly rushed out and started “competing” with him for the “business.”

“Xiaowei, go move something else; Auntie will handle this,” Hu Yun glanced at him and began to move a pile of books downstairs.
