First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space

157 She Knows Everything

Lu Jiao brought the children up the mountain. Today, the children didn’t take a break and went up in one go. However, once they got there, they crashed onto the ground and couldn’t stand up anymore.

“Mommy, this is exhausting.”

Lu Jiao chuckled, “This means your bodies aren’t strong enough yet. Look at brother Mutou, Xiaobao, and Gousheng. They’re so strong.”

Those three boys were spoiled at home. Though they were from poor families, their families favored boys and fed them the best food.

The four little ones looked to Xie Xiaobao, Mutou and Gousheng and vowed, “We will catch up to you in the future.”

!!

Lu Jiao asked the four little ones to share their peaches and grapes with the other boys.

After so many weeks of education, the four little ones have grown generous. They shared their fruits with their friends.

Xie Xiaoboa, Gousheng and Mutou were the ones who felt shy about this.

Lu Jiao asked if Xie Xiaobao and Mutou knew how to climb trees, and they actually did know.

Therefore, Lu Jiao asked them to teach the four little ones how to climb. Gousheng indicated that he wants to learn as well.

The children then started to play together, which saved Lu Jiao a lot of energy.

Lu Jiao sat near the children and watched them. Quietly, she started to plan what she should do with the 5,000 taels of silver she earned from Zhao Lingfeng.

It wasn’t right to just leave the money there idle. She needed to use the money to make more money.

In the future, she will need to raise the four children herself. Though she wasn’t sure how long she would have the kids, since she decided to support them, she will offer them the best of everything. When the time came for her to return the kids back to their father, she also needed to give them some good gifts. After all, they were mother and son. All in all, it was required for her to make loads of money.

Just then, she remembered her spiritual stream in her space. She could use the spiritual stream water to make soap. She also had some land in her space that she’s been using to grow some random medicinal plants. She hasn’t really used any of that. What if she used that land to cultivate more specialized medicinal seeds?

Seeds cultivated with spiritual stream water could grow anywhere.

The more Lu Jiao thought about it, the happier she got. Medicinal ingredients were tricky to grow due to their unique preferences. Some medicinal herbs enjoy moist soil, some enjoy hills, and some enjoy dry areas.

But seeds cultivated in her space with her spiritual stream water would not be so picky. She could then plant those seeds anywhere she wanted. She could also grow agriculture, vegetables, and fruits with whatever seeds she fostered.

Lu Jiao started to laugh. With her money, she could buy land.

“Woah, Second Born, you’re amazing. You already learned how to climb! Come down and let me try!”

Lu Jiao heard the loud cry and focused on the kids. She found the Second Born had climb up the tree like a monkey. Though he was only two meters off the ground, it was enough to shock his three brothers.

Lu Jiao raised an eyebrow and grinned at the Second Born. This boy was sportier than the other three. Was he really going to take a military position in the future?

Lu Jiao then looked towards the First Born. It is likely that the First Born will end up studying like his father. Not only did he look like his father, but his brain and intelligence were also similar.

As for the Third and Fourth Born, she couldn’t really predict what they might want to do. The Third Born enjoyed pampering himself and the Fourth Born had a sweet mouth.

Just then, the Third Born’s whiny voice was heard, “Ah! How come I can’t get up?”

Lu Jiao looked up and found the Third Born struggling to get his feet off the ground. No matter what he did, he couldn’t move his body up. This made the other children laugh.

The Third Born became frustrated. Lu Jiao walked over and said, “Don’t get flustered. We’ll work on it slowly. If you can’t figure it out today, you keep trying tomorrow. Wait, didn’t you bring your bows? You can try shooting arrows.”

The four little ones instantly made their move. They took out their bows and waited to play with Xie Xiaobao and their other friends.

Lu Jiao started harvesting herbs nearby. Since she decided to start cultivating seeds, she needed more herb samples so she could plant them in her space.

Then, she’ll be able to produce seeds from them and plant them.

She happily worked her way around the area. Though she taught the villagers a lot about herbs, there were still lots of herbs they didn’t know about on this mountain.

Lu Jiao picked the expensive ones and the ones that would get her good-quality seeds.

Once the children go to sleep at night, she could go into her space, harvest what she had on her land, and plant in the new ones.

The more she thought about it, the happier she got. Very quickly, her herbs piled up. She put the majority of them into her space and kept some in her basket.

“Okay, it’s late. Let’s go back.”

Lu Jiao waved at the kids, who were playing so crazily that they forgot about the time.

The four little ones heard her and ran to her. The Second Born excitedly shouted, “Mommy, look! Look! I hit the target! I hit the target!”

The children hung a rock off the tree to practice their aim. In the end, only the Second Born managed to hit it once.

The other three quadruplets didn’t hit it at all. However, Xie Xiaoao and Mutou, the oldest, managed to hit the rock a few times.

When the Second Born saw Lu Jiao, he shouted excitedly.

Lu Jiao walked over and complimented him, “My Second Born is incredible. You truly are going to be the greatest general in the future.”

The Second Born lifted his chest and looked up proudly, “Of course!”

He then asked Lu Jiao, “Mommy, do you know how to shoot?”

Lu Jiao nodded, “I do.”

Lu Jiao took over the Second Born’s small bow and arrow. She posed and then shot the arrow – it squarely hit the rock the children hung. That rock was five meters away.

The four little ones and Xie Xiaobao cheered, “Mommy, you’re amazing!”

“Third aunt, you’re unbelievable!”

Lu Jiao laughed. The rock was only five meters away, how amazing could she be? The four little ones were only four years old and it was no big deal that they couldn’t aim. Plus, their arms were weak. It was more important to her that they strengthen their arms.

Lu Jiao decided to teach the children a little.

“Here, let me teach you the right way to shoot. First, hold your bow and arrow right. You should hold the bow with mostly your thumb and index finger. The arrow should rest on your curled-up index finger. Do you see?”

The children started to copy Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao continued to explain, “The arrow should be placed between your index and middle finger. Next, you want to inhale and place the string under your chin. Check your own positioning.

Finally, exhale and let go of the arrow. Remember, you must check your stance first. Only when your stance is right will you be able to aim.”
