First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space

159 A Mindless Flatterer

Xie Yunjin stopped Lu Jiao, “Lu Jiao.”

She stopped and turned her head. Xie Yunjin asked with a frown, “When can I start using the wheelchair?”

If he could move, he wouldn’t allow these people to barge into their home and take advantage of them.

Lu Jiao glanced at his legs. Honestly, he was healing faster than she had anticipated. After all, she did add spiritual stream water to his medicine, which helped speed up his bone regrowth. Therefore, his legs were healing faster than normal patients.

As long as no force was applied to his legs and he was mindful of how long he sat, he could use a wheelchair.

“You can sit in a wheelchair now. But you cannot sit in it for too long. Also, you have to be careful and not be hit by anyone or anything.”

The worst scenario was if he got knocked over by someone.

Xie Yunjin’s eyes brightened, “That means, I can start using a wheelchair now?”

Lu Jiao nodded, “Yes, just be careful.”

Xie Yunjin happily complied, “I will be cautious. Do not worry.”

It was so difficult for him to get surgery. How could he ever let anyone hit his legs again?

“When you get a chance, check with Uncle Youcai and ask if the wheelchair is ready. If it is, bring it back. I might have uses for it.”

“Sounds good.”

Lu Jiao left the room, leaving Xie Yunjin deep in thought. He sought ways to create trouble for his parents so they could no longer spare the energy over here.

Lu Jiao went to the kitchen. She made some vegetable porridge and heated up some buns.

Dinner was porridge, buns, and the leftover fish from lunch.

The four little ones were scared off a little by Xie Laogen and Lady Ruan. However, by dinner time, they had recovered. They ate happily and told Xie Yunjin about their day in the mountains.

The Fourth Born acted dramatically and complimented Lu Jiao, “Daddy, did you know, mommy knows everything! Not only does she know how to climb a tree, she even knows how to shoot an arrow. At first, we couldn’t hit the target, but by the end, we all hit it!”

Xie Yunjin looked at Lu Jiao with a profound gaze. His pupils seemed to emit mysterious magnetism.

“Your mom is incredible.”

His lips curled up and his entire aura softened. Right now, he seemed like a bamboo in the rain.

Lu Jiao shot him a look and then said to the Fourth Born, “You are so good at complimenting me.”

This little man could manage to make her sound like a goddess any time of the day. And every day, he gets better at it.

Could her youngest son end up being a mindless flatterer in the future?

The Fourth Born had no self-awareness and proudly raised his chest, “It’s all because my mommy is so capable.”

Lu Jiao laughed, “Alright, eat up. You climbed the mountain today and sweated a lot. I’ll need to wash you up nicely later.”

The four little ones nodded. Lu Jiao suddenly thought of Xie Yunjin and mumbled to herself… Was Xie Erzhu going to come tonight? Did she have to wipe him down again?

Though it was normal to help out a patient, Xie Yunjin’s agonizing face made her scalp itch. The way he behaved truly makes her feel like she was a devil.

Just then, Lin Chunyan’s voice came from the outside, “Third aunt! A fight broke out at the Xie family.”

Lin Chunyan then entered the room. When she saw Xie Yunjin, she retreated a little uncomfortably.

Lu Jiao knew she meant her in-laws when she said the “Xie family”.

“What are they fighting about?”

“Huzi went into town to sell herbs and when he passed by the Xie family, he heard second uncle Xie losing it. He’s smashing things in the yard and making a mess. My mother-in-law is already there and she asked me to come and get you.”

Lin Chunyan quickly glanced at Xie Yunjin.

Xie Yunjin’s handsome face was full of fury and his lips pursed together.

Lu Jiao knew he was worried about Xie Erzhu. Otherwise, he wouldn’t care so much.

Lu Jiao suggested, “Should I go and take a look?”

Xie Yunjin nodded, “Don’t let my second brother get hurt.”

Lu Jiao got up to leave. The four little ones worriedly called out, “Mommy…”

They were scared for their mom.

Lu Jiao comforted them, “Don’t worry. I will be okay. I am incredible, remember?”

She then made a fist and punched the air to show how strong she was.

The four little ones were still worried. Though their mommy was capable, there were a lot of bad guys out there.

The First Born slid off his chair, “Mommy, I will go with you.”

The Second Born did the save and went to grab his bow, “Mommy, I will bring my bow and arrows. If they dare to hurt you, I will shoot them.”

Lu Jiao scolded, “What are you talking about? Stay home and keep your dad company. I’m worried if you leave him alone.”

Lu Jiao said it so the four little ones would wait at home patiently.

Xie Yunjin knew her intention and cooperated, “Stay home and keep me company.”

The four little ones stared at Xie Yunjin and said with worry, “What if they hurt mommy?”

The Fourth Born slid off his chair and grabbed onto Lu Jiao’s legs. He then started to cry, “Mommy, don’t go, they’re going to hit you.”

Lu Jiao knelt down and hugged him, “They can’t win in a fight against me. I will go just for a bit. If I don’t come back tonight, you can go find me with your bow.”

The four little ones finally agreed, “Okay, if you don’t come back, we’ll go over there to protect you.”

Lu Jiao rubbed their heads before shs left with Lin Chunyan. Behind her, Xie Yunjin cautioned, “Be careful.”

His gaze was frosty and there was much exasperation in his eyes. He truly hated his family.

Lots of villagers had gathered by the Xie family’s home to watch the show.

When they saw Lu Jiao approach, they greeted, “Yunjin’s wife, hurry up and go in. Your second brother is furious.”

“I think it started because Xie Laogen told Xie Erzhu to let Xie Daqiang learn leech keeping, and Xie Erzhu lost it.”

Lu Jiao snickered and raised an eyebrow, “I’ve met parents who have favorites, but I’ve never met anyone who goes as far as them. In this whole family, the second brother works the hardest yet they just take advantage of him.

Even rabbits fight back if they’re angry enough. They keep pushing the second brother harder and harder, it’s no wonder he cannot bear it any longer.”

Everyone respected Lu Jiao these days and they agreed with her. Everyone started to talk poorly of the Xie family.

Lu Jiao was satisfied with the result and went inside.

The Xie family yard was now completely chaotic and in disarray. Xie Erzhu was now screaming with his eyes red and wide, “Are you only going to stop when I’m dead?! These years, I do more work than bulls and eat less than rabbits! My family works endlessly yet no matter what we do, you use my family as your punching bag and take out all your frustration on us!”
