Pampered 70s, the wife I snatched is so fragrant - Chapter 17

As Mother Song spoke, her voice gradually became softer.

She knew very well that she was completely unreasonable.

It was unreasonable to get benefits from others and then burn the bridge after crossing the river.

It was a bit of a stab in the back to propose a breakup at this time, but it was only then that people would understand.

Who would be willing to accept a daughter-in-law who was hugged in public?

“Mom, Ru’er is not to blame for what happened today. It was my fault for not protecting her well… and you should not mention breaking off the engagement.”

“I like Ru’er. Every time I’m with her, I feel my heart becomes extra peaceful.”

“She is pretty, cute and well-behaved. I heard from my aunt that she has started to teach her how to cook. In the future… in the future, I will take good care of her.”

Mother Song looked at her son in disbelief.

She had never thought about it this way before, and never thought that her son would fall in love with a fool.

“What’s the point of just being pretty? Even though you have a promising future, I have to remind you that you’re just a kid from the countryside, and you might not even be able to find a job in the future!”

“I don’t know how much she can help you, but at least she can’t hold you back!”

Song Yuan stared at his mother with a resolute gaze.

“Mom, don’t overthink it! If it weren’t for their family’s help, I’d be working in the fields like everyone else right now… You can’t go back on your word like that.”

“Besides, I really like Xiao Ru. She’s innocent…”

Innocent, like a blank slate, without the complicated complications of getting along with others.

Song’s mother remained unmoved.

“I don’t care what you think, but until you find a job, forget about marriage!”

Her son was still too naive.

Once he’d experienced the perils of society and the frustrations of life, he’d surely be less stubborn.

“Mom, I’m going to see Ru’er. What do you think I should bring?”

Song’s mother wasn’t shy about giving her the presents.

“There are 20 eggs at home. Take 10 of them!”

In terms of social etiquette, Song’s mother was impeccable.

The only thing that people criticized her for was that she didn’t want her son to marry a fool.

Song Yuan nodded, took out a basket, and picked up 10 eggs.

He immediately went to the Xiao family.

When Xiao Ru woke up, she found herself in Wang Hua’s arms.

She didn’t even remember that she was sleeping in Lu Zheng’s arms before.

Wang Hua frowned.

“Ruru, tell me, why did you run out of this yard? Didn’t I tell you not to go out?”

Wang Hua’s face was serious, and she wanted to let her daughter know the seriousness of the matter.

Xiao Ru lowered her head.

When Lu Zheng spoke to her patiently and gently, she was willing to answer.

But Wang Hua’s serious expression now really scared her.

No matter how ignorant she was, she understood that the reason she was living a good life now was because of the relatives of the original owner.

Xiao Ru had a deep respect for the people who provided her with living conditions.

Wang Hua sighed.

“You silly child, do you know that old woman Song Jia is dying to break off your engagement? You’re lying in a man’s arms, that’s a ready-made excuse!”

Xiao Ru blinked, somewhat confused by what Wang Hua was saying.

“Auntie!”

Wang Hua, who had just been so disappointed in her, immediately put on a smile.

Xiao Ru looked at Wang Hua’s face with some curiosity. How did she do that? It changed so quickly.

“Song Yuan’s here?”

“Come in for some sugar water!”

Wang Hua quickly opened the courtyard door and let him in.

Song Yuan smiled, walked in carrying a basket, and placed the eggs on the table.

“Sister Ru’er!”

Wang Hua walked over with the sugar water.

A hint of embarrassment still lingered on her face.

“Song Yuan, you know Ru’er. She can be very naive sometimes!”

“She was suddenly kidnapped and trafficked. She must have been quite frightened. Seeing someone saving her, she’s clinging to them like a lifeline!”

“She doesn’t usually interact with anyone…”

Song Yuan smiled and shook his head.

“Of course I know!”

“Ruru’er and I grew up together. She must be terrified, so I came to see her.”

Wang Hua felt relieved.

At least she wouldn’t use this as an excuse to break off the engagement.

“Okay!”

“Then talk to Ru’er. You go, I’ll go get lunch!”

Song Yuan nodded.

Looking at the bewildered Xiao Ru, Song Yuan felt a bit helpless.

He truly loved her, but he was also truly helpless.

His mother didn’t understand or approve, constantly thinking about breaking off the engagement, even if it meant she’d be blamed.

She didn’t understand at all that he truly loved this girl.

“Ruru… you can’t sneak out on your own anymore, okay?”

“Next time you go out, go with your parents, or go with your brother…”

Song Yuan looked at Xiao Ru with some concern.

After they got married, he definitely couldn’t devote all his time to Xiao Ru.

He still had to earn money to support the family.

If this girl was so foolish, she’d be swindled away sooner or later.

Xiao Ru blinked her big eyes, looking incredibly innocent.

When she woke up from a nap, Uncle Pigeon was gone.

For a moment, she was confused about what the man in front of her had said.

It took a lot of thought to figure out that he probably didn’t want her to go out.

Xiao Ru pouted and sat at the table, digging in her pocket with one hand, pulling out two White Rabbit candies.

Lu Zheng had slipped them into her pocket before going to the police station.

Song Yuan frowned.

“Ruru, tell me quickly, who gave you this candy?”

Xiao Ru immediately hid the candy behind her back.

Was he trying to steal her candy?

Song Yuan was at a loss for words.

He didn’t seem silly, knowing how to protect his food.

But why did his brain fail him at the critical moment?

“Ruru, not everyone’s candy can be eaten! What if someone tricks you into giving it away?”

Song Yuan spoke a little loudly, hoping to teach Xiao Ru a lesson, causing Wang Hua to run out.

“Song Yuan, what’s wrong with this kid? Is she being naughty again?”

Song Yuan shook his head, his face serious.

“Auntie, Ru’er had some candy in her pocket, and I don’t know who gave it to her!”

Wang Hua also turned serious.

Song Yuan would occasionally give Xiao Ru some treats, and he did bring back a few White Rabbit candies last time.

But they had been eaten long ago, so how could they still be there?

But lately, she kept smelling a milky fragrance on her daughter.

Wang Hua hadn’t noticed before, but now she suddenly remembered.

“Ruru… who gave you the candy?”

White Rabbit candies were a precious commodity in this village.

Few people are really willing to buy it.
