 C don't ask for the constants of B

 C ask if it exist a constant in its scope, and if it don't exist it will
 search in its class

 With your example


T> class A
T> 	AA = 1
T> end
T> 
T> class B < A
T> 	BB = 1
T> 	class C
T> 		puts BB  => 1
T> 		puts AA  => NameError
T> 	end
T> 
T> end

 BB is found because it's defined in the scope of C
 AA is not found because it's not defined in C, not in the scope of C, nor
 in any classes parent of C
