Chapter Ninety-Seven: He Must Always Be a Good Son
"I heard that when the ship docked, they disembarked from the same boat?"
Just when everyone thought that this matter was over, Ruan Bolin raised such a question again.
Really, if they didn't all know that Ruan Jiaojiao was his own granddaughter, they would all think that she was the granddaughter of the enemy's family.
In this world, how can there be a grandfather who doesn't want to kiss his granddaughter?
What kind of scourge happened to their Ruan family?
The old man couldn't get used to his behavior and became angry.
"Bai Lin, you are enough, you have to prove that Jiaojiao is at fault, you can rest assured?
Look at you, how can you look like an elder? ”
Even if the cousin in the clan spoke, Ruan Bolin still didn't want to stop there.
Having developed to this point, he can't be a joke.
He said righteously: "It is precisely because I am an elder that the Ruan family is not allowed to have such a corrupt existence.
If she was innocent, I wouldn't have slandered her, and if she wasn't innocent, then don't blame me for being ruthless and not being able to keep her. ”
Today, he is determined to get rid of this scourge and prevent her from continuing to plague the Ruan family.
Speaking of which, everyone looked at Wei Yan, who was in the know.
Wei Yan really hesitated this time, there were so many people on the dock and so many pairs of eyes watching, even if he wanted to help his cousin, it couldn't be rounded.
He also disagrees with this very much, what is the matter if he is not married and stays on a ship?
Even if she was caught, she deserved it, no wonder he didn't help.
Just when he hesitated, Ruan Bolin and Ruan Chengxiang were proud, Ruan Jiaojiao appeared at the door.
"I'm here, you can ask me directly if you have any doubts, why bother an outsider."
For Wei Yan, outsiders at this time are better than insiders in their Ruan family, and it is too opportune for his cousin to come.
Fortunately, he didn't have the mouth to say it quickly, otherwise he would have had a hard time explaining it.
Wei Yan consciously took two steps back, trying to reduce his sense of presence.
Ruan Jiaojiao saluted to all the clan elders, and then stood up straight and raised her head and chest to face the old man.
"Grandfather wants to know if I'm on the same boat as He Zong, so I'll tell you in front of all the clan elders that it's true.
Don't be in a hurry to scold me, I'll tell you why.
I don't know if you know that there is a gang of water gangsters in the border waters of Yangzhou?
Even if you don't know now, it doesn't matter, if you can't find out from the outside, you can go to the yamen to inquire if there are merchant ships and passenger ships that have been hijacked.
And when we came back, we also met, but fortunately, Gongzi Ariga sacrificed his life to save us and came back safely.
At that time, I was almost kidnapped by the bandits, but it was He Gongzi who fought to the death against the bandits regardless of his own safety to save my life.
Later, He Gongzi was afraid of encountering such a situation again, so he had to be on the same boat with me to protect him.
I want to ask, when you go out, can you not see a single foreign man?
Are all those passenger ships chartered?
There are so many people on our ship, what can we do that is unseemly?
How dangerous the journey of more than two months is, I believe that those who have been out know it.
You can also ask the second cousin, he almost died when he encountered the bandit for the first time? ”
Wei Yan, who was named again, had to stand up, "Well, yes, the first time the bandits attacked the ship was extremely urgent.
At that time, there were also Gu Ju people and Gu family brothers and sisters in Baoning City on our boat, and I accidentally fell into the water, but fortunately He Zong rescued me and was able to escape.
Even so, I was sick for a long time. ”
As he spoke, he sighed again, intending to take this opportunity to express his thoughts.
"So, when I go back, I plan to take Hezong's merchant ship back, mainly for the sake of safety."
Seeing that he helped them today, my cousin will agree, right?
Judging from Wei Yan's performance today, Ruan Jiaojiao really feels that he has the ability to see, and he is not as annoying as before.
But it's clear that some people still don't give up.
Just when Ruan Chengxiang got the old man's approval and was about to speak, his hand had already been raised and pointed at Ruan Jiaojiao.
Ruan Jiaojiao rolled up her sleeves in front of everyone, "Did you see it?" Can you shut up? ”
I saw a bright red dot on the inside of her little arm, falling on her white skin like snow, which was particularly bright and conspicuous.
"As a girl who has not yet left the cabinet, I should not have stood here to prove my innocence, or in such an unsightly way, I owe it to my grandfather.
I know that my grandfather has never looked down on me, and I will not be an eyesore to my grandfather in the future, and it will be difficult for me to come back if I marry far away.
Just in time, my grandfather was able to be quiet, too. ”
After saying that, she saluted the clan elders again, and then turned to leave.
In the past, she didn't like this red dot very much, and when her mother had to give her some points, she was also very resistant, but she didn't expect to use it today.
Behind him, there were bursts of sighs in the hall, as well as the voice of the clan elder reproaching Ruan Bolin.
"What do you do? It's all a family, so why not.
In the future, you can do it, I don't care about your business anymore. ”
"Hey......"
"What the hell."
In the midst of such a voice, Ruan Bolin's face was red.
He was not ashamed, but angry.
After tossing such a scene, it was all in vain in the end.
Ruan Chengxiang lowered his head, and he didn't dare to raise his head until all the clan elders had left.
He knew that because of his identity as a concubine, these old immortals looked down on him.
When he takes power in the future, these old immortals don't want to get a copper plate from him.
Everything in the Ruan family can only be owned by him Ruan Chengxiang.
"Dad, you must take care of your health, it's not cost-effective to be angry with those people."
He said comforting words as he learned what his mother usually did, gently running them down his father's chest.
Of course, he cares about his father's body, and he knows that if his father is gone, they are afraid that they will be kicked out of the Ruan family directly.
Before he got everything from the Ruan family, his father couldn't be fine.
Ruan Bolin seemed to see through his son's intentions at a glance, and he snorted angrily when he looked at his son.
"Are you afraid that if I die, you won't be able to share the property?"
He stared straight at his son, trying to see something from his son's expression.
It's a pity that I didn't see anything but a sincere face.
Ruan Chengxiang has been pretending to be with his mother for so many years, so it is naturally impossible for him to expose it casually.
Especially in front of the father, he must always be a good son.
"Dad really wronged his son, in his son's heart, Dad's body is definitely the most important.
The son wants the family property, but compared to the body, what is the family property? ”
The old man was very satisfied with his son's performance, and seeing his son's respect and concern for him, his mood gradually calmed down.
"Don't worry, even if the old man dies, he will hand over the Ruan family to you before he dies."
