Chapter 145 - 145 A Messy Fight

145 A Messy Fight

Lu Jiao glanced back at the four little ones and educated them, “A family has many members. Some are good and some are bad. You cannot conclude everyone in the family is bad just because one person is bad. In the future, if you ever run into bad people, you shouldn’t deny their whole family. You need to give everyone a chance and decide for yourself if all the individuals are bad.”

The four little ones thought about it and decided their mother was right.

They nodded.

The First Born said in a serious manner, “I understand. Our family has bad people and good people. My grandma is a bad person, and so is my little aunt. My second uncle is a good person. My dad and mom are good people.”

The other three nodded in unison, “That’s right!”

Behind them, Aunt Guihua’s grandson, Tiedan chimed in loudly, “I know that! There are bad and good people in my home as well. My grandma is a bad person and my mom is a good person. My grandma always hurts my mom.”

Lu Jiao’s eyes turned into slits. She wondered just how angry Aunt Guihua would get knowing that’s how her grandson viewed her. Aunt Guihua doted on Tiedan yet he thought of her as a villain.

Just in time, Xie Tiedan added, “Though my grandma treats my mom poorly, she’s really nice to me. Ah, it troubles me. I don’t know what the right thing to do is.”

Lu Jiao looked at him. He was young and had a good heart.

“Tiedan, do you want to help your mom and sister?”

Aunt Guihua was highly sexist and only spoiled her son and grandson.

Xie Tiedan nodded, “I do. Tell me how.”

Lu Jiao leaned into Xie Tidan’s ear and whispered a few words. Xie Tiedan gawked at Lu Jiao in awe, “Third aunt, I can help my mom and sister by doing that?”

Lu Jiao nodded confidently, “I promise.”

“Okay!”

Xie Tiedan happily smiled and the First Born couldn’t help but ask her, “What did my mommy tell you?”

Xie Tiedan refused to tell and even requested Lu Jiao, “Third aunt, don’t tell others.”

“Okay.”

The group chatted happily and went to the Village Leader’s house.

Only Uncle Youcai and three kids were home at the time and Uncle Youcai was making a table. He was surprised to find Lu Jiao, “Yunjin’s wife, is something up?”

Lu Jiao nodded. She first gestured for the children to go play before she handed Uncle Youcai the wheelchair design she drew.

“Uncle Youcai, take a look. Do you think you can build me a wheelchair?”

Uncle Youcai studied the design in awe. After some time, he realized it wasn’t actually hard to make. He wasn’t sure what this was for. It looked like a chair but had two wooden wheels.

“What is this for?”

Lu Jiao didn’t conceal information from him, “It’s a wheelchair for Yunjin. You know he just had surgery and I don’t want him to lie in bed all the time. I thought of making him a wheelchair like this. That way, he can use the chair to go outside and get some Sun. Sunshine is good for bone regrowth and he gets to heal faster that way.”

Hearing that it was for Xie Yunjin, Uncle Youcai said seriously, “I’ll make it for Yunjin right away.”

Lu Jiao nodded, “Thank you, Uncle Youcai.”

Uncle Youcai was a craftsman. An honest one at that. He got shy and scratched his head when Lu Jiao thanked him, “Yunjin’s business is our business. There’s no need to thank me.”

He then paused, which made Lu Jiao curious.

“What is it?”

Uncle Youcai asked, embarrassed, “If someone else wants a similar chair, can I make it for them?”

He added, “Of course, I can share the money I make with you.”

Lu Jiao smiled, “There’s no need to give me money. If there’s a need, then help them out.”

Lu Jiao left. When she reached the entrance, she heard noises in front of the yard. There was arguing and cursing.

Lu Jiao’s expression changed and left in a hurry. Behind her, Uncle Youcai followed.

The yard was now a mess. There were eight to nine children beating each other up. Lu Jiao couldn’t even tell what was going on. Worried that her four little ones would get hurt, she yelled, “Stop!”

Hearing her fury, the little children separated and stood by the side.

Lu Jiao finally saw the groups and what went on.

The four little ones led a group of kids and fought against Maodou and Caidou.

Maodou was okay, but Caidou’s face was injured. There were two long cuts on his face and he lost a big chunk of hair. His clothes were also in disarray.

Caidou’s never been treated like this. Before his family exiled Xie Yunjin, the villagers all treated his family with the highest respect. They also treated Maodou and Caidou very nicely. Even when they got in trouble, the villagers didn’t really provoke them.

Who knew this time, the children would join the four little ones and beat them up?

Maodou and Caidou’s faces appeared unpleasant. Caidou straight up cried and pointed at the four little ones, cursing, “You bastards! Don’t you think about stepping into my home ever again! We don’t have cousins like you!”

The four little ones fought back, “Cousins like you are not something to be treasured! You don’t deserve to be our cousins! You treat us badly, steal our food, and always hit us! We would rather have other boys as our cousins than have you!”

Caidou heard that statement and cursed even louder, “You bastards! This is all because of that b!tch mother of yours! You now have animal hearts! My grandmother had spoken, sooner or later, she’ll make the third uncle get rid of your mother! Once you’re back, just you wait on what pain awaits-”

Before Caidou could finish, Maodou interrupted him, “Shut up.”

Maodou was 11 this year and had studied for a few years by now. He knew Caidou’s words were hard to hear and stopped him from talking more.

Caidou knew then that he had spoken too aggressively. He quieted down.

The four little ones that stood before them were now red in the face from fury. They wanted to beat Caidou up more. It was fine for him to call them names, but their mommy was great. How dare he call her names?

Lu Jiao held onto three of the boys and then asked the First Born, “What happened? Why did you get into a fight out of nowhere?”

The First Born angrily pointed at Maodou and Caidou.

“We were playing in the yard, then Maodou came with Caidou. He forced us to reconcile with Caidou. We ignored him so he grabbed our hands and made us shake hands with Caidou. We tried to get away but he was too strong. In the end, Caidou got angry and started to hit us. Then, we all ended up fighting.”
