"Go back this afternoon, and remember to do as Granny told you," the Ruanlin family matriarch said.
Ruan Jun accepted the money with a grave expression, his eyes stinging and on the verge of tears, but he held them back and nodded vigorously, "Okay! Granny, I know what to do!"
This matter was not something the Ruanlin family matriarch intended to keep from Ruan Jiandang, so when he came back from the fields at noon, she talked about it at the dining table.
Ruan Jianguo was eating his food and paused briefly when he heard, then continued eating as if nothing had been said.
Ruan Jiandang's face looked terrible.
His hand trembled as he was picking up food, and the chopsticks he held fell onto the table.
