184 They got Caught
Lu Jiao couldn’t help but giggle. Once she was inside her space and alone, she could no longer endure it and burst out laughing. As she chortled, she said, “Xie Sangou, you better not provoke me in the future. If you piss me off, I will make sure everyone learns of your nickname.”
Lu Jiao had to take a few minutes to laugh before she began to clean up.
After two hours, she exited her space. If things go smoothly today, there’s going to be an exciting event later. She wanted to make sure she was there for it.
Lu Jiao went to sleep. However, she didn’t get to sleep for too long when someone came in and woke her up.
“Third uncle, third aunt, wake up.”
Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao were both mentally prepared. When they heard the noises, they opened their eyes and became filled with thrill.
It was happening.
Lu Jiao got up right away, which startled the children. They nervously called out, “Mommy.”
Lu Jiao comforted them, “It’s okay. Someone’s asking to see me. Likely someone got sick again and wants treatment.”
The four little ones stopped feeling anxious. Their mother’s been treating people regularly and there was nothing for them to be afraid of.
Lu Jiao looked outside and saw that it was Xie Tieniu from the Village Leader’s household and Aunt Guihua’s son, Xie Dongdong.
When Xie Tieniu and Xie Dongdong saw Lu Jiao, they greeted, “Third aunt.”
“Yunjin’s wife.”
Lu Jiao pretended to be clueless, “What happened? Why are you here in the middle of the night?”
Xie Tieniu’s expression dropped and he didn’t know where to start.
Xie Dongdong had fewer boundaries given that he’s always been spoiled. He answered Lu Jiao’s question right away, “Uncle Xie and Widow Wang were fooling around and my mom caught them red-handed. They’re at the Village Leader’s house now. The Village and Clan Leaders asked us to get you and Yunjin.”
Lu Jiao was afraid the four little ones heard and glared at Xie Dongdong, “Fooling around? Watch what you say.”
Xie Dongdong chuckled and was about to say more when Xie Tiniu stopped him.
Lu Jiao turned and went to the east bedroom. There, Xie Yunjin was awake and so were the First and Second Born. They asked Xie Yunjin, “Daddy, what’s fooling around?”
The Second Born answered quickly, “It means to play together. When we play with brother Mutou, it would mean we are fooling around.”
Lu Jiao was speechless and said to Xie Yunjin, “We better go and see.”
Xie Yunjin agreed but he was worried about the children. If they all went, who would look after them?
Naturally, Lu Jiao thought of that, “How about I stay and watch the children and you go.”
Just then, Xie Hu and Xie Xiaobao walked in, “Third aunt and uncle, we can help you watch the kids. You should go if you need to.”
The First and Second Born wanted to tag along and shouted, “Daddy, mommy, let’s go together.”
Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao had no guts to let the children witness the scene that was about to unfold today. If things go according to their expectations, Lady Ruan was going to cause a scene and skin Xie Laogen alive.
They didn’t want the four children to see that but they themselves were happy to go and watch the show.
Lu Jiao said to the First and Second Born, “You guys stay home. Mom and dad will come back soon.”
The First Born wanted to argue but Lu Jiao patted his head, “Be good. Listen, we are going because we need to help out. If we are going out to have fun, we would definitely bring you.”
The First Born finally stopped persisting. Xie Xiaobao walked towards the children and comforted them, “First Born, let’s just go to bed together. I will tell you guys a story, how about that?”
The First Born agreed and nodded. Lu Jiao went and found a new set of clothes and helped Xie Yunjin change into them. After he was done, she carried him into the wheelchair.
Xie Yunjin naturally wrapped his arm around Lu Jiao’s neck. Since the room was dark and the faces were blurry, Xie Yunjin felt much more relaxed. Not only did he wrap his arms around Lu Jiao’s neck, he even inhaled deeply to get a taste of her scent. Her scent put him at ease.
Lu Jiao, on the other hand, was uncomfortable with Xie Yunjin’s actions. She almost threw the man against the ground. However, in the end, she put him in the wheelchair.
Afterward, Lu Jiao went to bring out the Third and Fourth Born from the west bedroom.
“Brother Xiaobao will keep you company. Mom and dad need to go help out with something and we will be back soon.”
The Third and Fourth Born were still hazy but now, they were fully awake. They reminded Lu Jiao, “Then, come back soon.”
Lu Jiao nodded and pushed Xie Yunjin outside. When they passed Huzi, she said to him, “Thank you, you two.”
Huzi shook his head, “Don’t worry and go.”
Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao went to the Village Leader’s place with Xie Tieniu and Xie Dongdong.
On the way there, Xie Dongdong excitedly told them about what happened, “My mother didn’t sleep and kept her eyes on the neighbor’s house all night. Who knew she would actually catch them red-handed? She didn’t make a sound at first until the guy went into the house and was with Widow Wang. Only then, did she start screaming for people to come.
My mother honestly is so smart. She didn’t say Widow Wang was having an affair and instead, said she saw a thief break into Widow Wang’s place. In the end, several people burst into Widow Wang’s home and caught Uncle Laogen and Widow Wang red-handed. I heard when they were caught, Widow Wang wasn’t even fully dressed yet.”
Here, Xie Dongdong sounded regretful, “I missed the opportunity to see her undressed.”
Xie Yunjin coldly glanced at Xie Dongdong while Lu Jiao rolled her eyes.
It was after midnight yet many people gathered at the Village Leader’s home. There were noises of cursing, chatting, and wrenching desperation.
“Xie Laogen, you dare to fool around with other women!”
Lady Ruan was so enraged she acted like a delirious person. After she screamed, she jumped up to scratch Xie Laogen’s face.
Beside Xie Laogen, Widow Wang screeched and asked in distress, “Laogen, are you okay?”
The caringness in her tone was obvious.
Lady Ruan heard it and instantly lost all logic. She lunged at Widow Wang, who chose not to defend herself.
Lady Ruan grabbed Widow Wang’s hair with one hand and scratched her face with the other.
Xie Laogen watched as Lady Ruan attacked Widow Wang’s face and lost it. He leaped over and grabbed Lady Ruan’s hand to stop her.
Lady Ruan stopped moving as she struggled to gain back control of her own body.
Xie Laogen was tall and sturdy while Lady Ruan was thin and small. She was no opponent of his and couldn’t get away from his grasp.
In the end, she gritted her teeth and cursed in fury, “Xie Laogen, you’re a piece of sh!t! How dare you protect that woman?! I am going to end you!”
