Ruru became happy, "That's great, thank you, Grandmother."
Old Madam Tian looked at Ruru's simple and adorable smile, feeling delighted. Being with the energetic Ruru made her feel young again.
When Xie Heng returned, Ruru chirped about today's events to him, mainly praising Grandmother's kindness and generosity.
Xie Heng knew in his heart that his mother disliked Ruru, and was merely trying to find ways to torment her.
After dinner, he went alone to his mother's courtyard.
Mrs. Ruan was very pleased to see Xie Heng come, pulling him to ask many questions.
Xie Heng answered warmly, then said, "Today I went to the Ministry of Revenue and met Lord Chief Minister."
Mrs. Ruan was taken aback, remembering that the Lord Chief Minister was Ruru's older brother. She asked, "What happened?"
Xie Heng spoke directly, "Lord Chief Minister said that I should treat Ruru well."
"If I dare to upset her even slightly, he would send me off to some godforsaken place to be a County Magistrate."
