98 Educating the Boys

Xie Yunjin found Lu Jiao to be extraordinarily attractive right now. He thought that only by acting the way she was, could they stop that family from stirring up trouble. If this was any other woman, the four little ones may get hurt today. Therefore, this woman was great.

Though Xie Yunjin was silently praising, he didn’t show it on his face. Coldly, he challenged Xie Laogen, “Father, when is it enough?”

Before Xie Laogen could answer, he added, “I understand why you’ve been coming over this past while. You think now that my legs will heal, you can control me as you did before. You want me to listen to you just so you can use me.”

Xie Yunjin’s words ripped off Xie Laogen’s skin. His face was now as red as blood.

Xie Yunjin harshly continued, “Father, stop dreaming. I will not be controlled like the way I was before. You can do whatever you want. I am the son you kicked out. I will show respect where it’s due. Anything extra will depend on my mood. So, don’t bother visiting me all the time.

If this continues, I will go speak to the Village and Clan Leader and volunteer to get rid of my last name.”

Xie Yunjin then faked a smile, “When that happens, we’ll see if the Village Leader will take away my last name or your last name.”

His words drained all the color off Xie Laogen’s face. His body quivered and he almost fell sideways.

He could tell that this son was being serious. If they anger him again, he truly will go to the Village and Clan Leader and ask to change his last name.

If he asked like that, the Xie clan would most likely kick out the Xie Laogen family as opposed to Xie Yunjin.

If they were kicked out, and Xie Yunjin stayed, then there would be no way for them to get by. They would be considered two different families.

Those thoughts made Xie Laogen’s eyes go red. He mumbled, “Third son, we are your mother and father.”

Xie Yunjin stabbed again with his words, “I rather not have a mother and father like you.”

His words were icy cold, “Father, please go back.”

Inside the room, Lu Jiao had stopped stomping on Xie Daqiang. Xie Daqiang was in excruciating pain and struggled to get off the floor. He lifted his arm to hit Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao smirked at him. That alone was enough to scare Xie Daqiang away. He didn’t dare to move.

Xie Laogen called out, “Let’s go.”

He was truly sad this time. This third son of his had disappointed him. If he knew he would end up giving birth to such an unfilial son, he never should’ve sent him to study.

It was all because of studying. It would’ve been better if he stayed and farmed.

Xie Laogen and the furious Xie Daqiang turned to leave.

Behind them, Xie Yunjin laid solemnly on the bed.

Lu Jiao’s gentle voice comforted him, “You just had surgery. Don’t overthink it – it’s bad for your recovery. If your legs don’t heal, that family wouldn’t pity you. Those who care about you will hurt when you’re hurt. Those who don’t care only see you as the benefits you can bring.”

She then turned to the Second Born, “Are you okay? Are you hurt?”

The Second Born was fine until Lu Jiao asked. Her display of affection made him cry out loud, “Mommy, they were saying bad things about you. I got angry and cursed at him.”

He had promised his mother before that he wouldn’t curse. Today, he lost control and cursed. He wondered if his mommy was mad.

Lu Jiao patted his head, “I won’t punish you this time. Next time, don’t curse. That person is your uncle after all. If the news gets out that you cursed at your uncle, it’d be bad for your reputation.

Though the bad guy is the other person, you ruin your own reputation by cursing at him. It’s a loss-loss situation for you.”

The Second Born seemed to have understood but not really. The only message he was certain of was that his mom wasn’t angry at him.

Finally, his heart fell back to space. Quickly, he looked up to Lu Jiao, “Mommy, before, I wanted to hog onto his legs and make him fall. But his legs were too thick and I didn’t think I had enough strength.”

Lu Jiao giggled.

The things she’s taught the kids so far would only work against other young children. That tactic would never work against Xie Daqiang.

Lu Jiao couldn’t help but pinch the Second Born’s cheek.

“You’re so small. How can you win a fight against your uncle? Even if you can, you shouldn’t. He’s your senior.

In the future, just stay away from him. If you ever run into seniors who are so unpleasant, get far far away. If you can’t, then think of another way. You shouldn’t hit or curse. All those things will only hurt your own reputation, got it?”

The four little ones circled around and answered in unison, “Mommy, we got it.”

Xie Yunjin narrowed his eyes as he watched. This woman was rather different in the way she taught the children. When he thought about it, however, the things she said made sense.

Lu Jiao patted each one of their little heads and said to them, “Go chat with your daddy. I’m going to make dinner.”

“Okay, mommy.”

The four little ones happily waved around their hands. With their mother around, they weren’t afraid of anybody.

While Lu Jiao and Lady Tian made dinner, more people came over. These people weren’t from the Xie Clan, but rather villagers from further away. Both the Xu family and the Lin family came.

Xu Duojin was now fully healed without any more symptoms. He moved around like a normal person.

When he saw Lu Jiao, he respectfully thanked her, “Thank you, Yunjin’s wife.”

Lu Jiao smiled, “We are all neighbors. No need to thank me. You’re here to see Yunjin?”

She headed to the living room while everyone else followed. They all silently complimented how Yunjin’s wife was now acting like a different person.

Not only did she slim down and become better looking, but the way she dealt with things was also extremely thoughtful and graceful. Not like their wives, who constantly shied away from guests and worried that their homes weren’t good enough. They were also often flustered and didn’t know how to host the guests.

Yunjin’s wife was different. Could it be that Yunjin taught her her mannerism? Everyone thought that would make sense. Yunjin studied a lot and naturally would know how to guide his wife.

Lu Jiao didn’t know what everyone was thinking. She brought the group into the east bedroom.

“Yunjin, Brother Xu, and others are here to see you.”

Xie Yunjin didn’t look well. The numbing of his legs was fading and the agony was overpowering.

Lu Jiao decided to give him some painkillers.

While Xue Duojin and others chatted with Xie Yunjin, Lu Jiao went to get a cup of water and secretly took out a painkiller pill. She headed to the east bedroom.
