Chapter 882: Chapter 882: Moving to Town (12)

Ruan Jianjun was still chuckling as he said, “Ruan Lei, you’re really useless. We all worked yesterday, how come all your brothers are fine, and only you got sick?”

Du Qing couldn’t help but feel sorry for him. Seeing Ruan Jianjun still in the mood to joke at this time, she glared at him.

Ruan Jianjun didn’t mind and kept on laughing happily. But when it came to lunchtime, he still showcased his cooking skills and made some special dishes just for Ruan Lei.

However, Ruan Lei didn’t have much appetite and didn’t eat a lot, which worked out well for Ruan Qun and Ruan Wei, the two youngsters.

Ruan Jiaojiao couldn’t do much with the moving either, so today she simply kept Ruan Lei company, pouring tea and water for him and occasionally helping him switch to a cold handkerchief, making Ruan Lei constantly think that getting sick once in a while wasn’t too bad after all—look how caring his sister was!

Even the meals were delivered upstairs to him, served right to his hands. She even offered to feed him.

If it weren’t for Xiu Xi standing by the door with a cold expression and a frightening gaze, he would have really liked to have a taste of the food fed to him by his sister’s own hands.

Meanwhile, downstairs, as everyone was having their meal, they began discussing Ruan Lei’s sickness. When Xiu Xi followed Ruan Jiaojiao down from upstairs, he interjected, “Physical fitness is poor, he needs to exercise.”

“Exactly, exactly,” agreed Ruan Jianguo, patting Ruan Jianjun’s shoulder: “You have to control Xiaolei’s diet. If he keeps getting fatter, he won’t be able to find a wife.”

Ruan Jianjun, who was also chubby, felt somewhat indignant: “Am I not fat too? And I still have a wife.”

Before Ruan Jianguo could reply, Ruan Wei said, “Uncle Three, were you as fat as you are now when you got married?”

“…” Ruan Jianjun.

“Hahahaha…” Ruan Jianguo roared with laughter: “If he looked like that when he got married, do you think your Aunt Three would have taken him?!”

With that comment, the other youngsters sitting around the table also burst out laughing.

Now Ruan Jianjun was left speechless; indeed, he was in similar shape to Ruan Jianguo before he got married. Even though he wasn’t as tall, he was still a strong young man standing over 1.80 meters, a rare catch in the neighboring villages. After getting married, he just kept gaining weight, ballooning to his current size.

Before, Du Qing never thought about making Little Fatty lose weight, but seeing him get a fever from just a little exhaustion this time, she felt they could not let him continue developing in this way.

She turned to Ruan Jianjun and asked, “Didn’t you say you have a classmate who teaches physical education at the middle school? When you have time, invite him over for a meal and ask him to look after your son, give him some proper training in the mornings and evenings.”

“Sure,” Ruan Jianjun said, touching his own belly and nodding.

Upstairs, Little Fatty, who was just previously delighted from finishing the meal brought by Ruan Jiaojiao and was helped to lie down to rest, couldn’t help but shiver uncontrollably and hugged the blanket closer to himself, thinking despite having two quilts on, why was he still feeling a bit cold.

The Ruan Family’s move didn’t involve emptying the house entirely but instead left most of it behind, such as some wardrobes, because they’d likely come back for holidays in the future. They needed to keep a set of furniture here, only moving items like TVs and washing machines to the town.

Ruan Hao had many books in the Ruan Family home, whereas Ruan Jiaojiao had a lot of clothes. She had so many clothes that she could go a month without repeating an outfit, and once the month was over, Shu Wen would immediately send over new clothes, resulting in her having an exceptionally large wardrobe.
