Chapter 22 -22: Golden Finger? (6)_1

The Ruanlin Family’s matriarch spoke like a machine gun, and Liao Zhaoji was somewhat unable to cope for the moment. Still, she was unwilling to give in and said in a low voice, “Mom… this was brought back by Ruan Chi, how did it become Jiaojiao’s? I know you love her, but you can’t be so blind to right and wrong. She’s so young, what could she possibly hunt? It must have been Chizi who shot it. I’m not asking for much, just one should be good enough.”

As she finished, her tone still carried the air of someone wronged yet seeking peace.

“Ptui! Have you no shame? Open your dog eyes and look! This is what my Jiaojiao got in exchange for her leg. You still want a piece, how could you be such an aunt? It truly is a family misfortune, how did Second Brother ever marry a thing like you!” the matriarch of the Ruanlin Family ranted and raved.

When it came to arguing, the matriarch of the Ruanlin Family had never lost. She could argue black into white, and in this case, her position was already in the right. The pheasant was indeed hunted by her Jiaojiao’s legs, and she would fight anyone who dared to claim it!

Liao Zhaoji indeed was no match for the matriarch of the Ruanlin Family, and now she was left with her head buzzing from the scolding.

Without giving her a chance to catch her breath, the matriarch of the Ruanlin Family grabbed her wrist, dragged her to the courtyard, and pointed at a group of young men, sneering, “You ask them who shot this pheasant. If anyone says it was Chizi, I’ll give it all to you right now!”

The moment Liao Zhaoji heard this, her eyes lit up. She didn’t dare hope for others, but she didn’t believe her own son would side with others.

“It was Sister who shot it.” Little Fatty.

“Sister’s.” Ruan Jie.

“Sister got it with her leg.” Ruan Qun.

“Mm, it’s Sister’s.” Ruan Feng.

“Sister’s, Sister’s, it definitely is Sister’s!” Liao Zhaoji’s youngest son, Ruan Wei, repeated it several times, each time louder than the last, as if he was afraid his mother wouldn’t hear him.

Liao Zhaoji’s face turned red, then white, then pale, displaying a truly spectacular range of colors.

Seeing her defeated and retreating, the matriarch of the Ruanlin Family spat at her once more. She hadn’t settled last time’s account with her, yet she had the audacity to think she mattered.

Having defeated Liao Zhaoji, the matriarch of the Ruanlin Family returned to Jiaojiao’s side. As she passed by Ruan Chi, she gestured towards the backyard. Ruan Chi knew to kneel on his own. On this issue, none of the brothers had any objections; they all felt guilty. They had taken their sister out and even got her injured.

Returning to Jiaojiao’s side, the Ruanlin matriarch’s demeanor changed instantly, becoming extremely gentle. She picked her up from the chair, cooing over her darling treasure before instructing Ruan Jianguo, “Go handle this pheasant, air-dry one, and stew the other for tonight to nourish Jiaojiao’s body. Our Jiaojiao has really suffered, it’s just heartbreaking.”

“…” Ruan Jiaojiao, she didn’t feel pitiable, truly not pitiable, just a bit embarrassed.

Yet, this incident made her realize once again just how much she was adored by the family occupying the original owner’s body, placed right at the heart of their affections. Now that she had taken over the original owner’s body and received so much love, she resolved to repay them even more in the future, ensuring their safety.

Ruan Jiaojiao silently encouraged herself and turned to see all her brothers kneeling in the courtyard. Just as she was about to plead on their behalf, she saw Ruan Jie shake his head at her, signaling her not to speak.

If they didn’t kneel today, the guilt wouldn’t fade from their hearts. It was they who had taken their sister out, even to a place like the back mountain. They were more than willing to accept their punishment.
