Xie Yunjin’s eyes flickered and his lips curled up. She realized it that fast?
However, he was very satisfied. Though Jiaojiao was an amazing surgeon, her hands remained soft and smooth. They werent boney and felt so nice.
Xie Yunjin’s heartbeat increased. However, he did his best to remain calm.
Given that Xie Yunjin let go of her hand so quickly and how calm he appeared, it seemed like what he did was mindless.
If Lu Jiao brought it up, it would seem very intentional.
Lu Jiao didn’t think it would be good for her to say anything then. As if nothing happened, the two of them got into their horse carriage with the four little ones.
Inside the carriage, the four little ones continued to pout and act angry. Lu Jiao grinned and tried to comfort them, “Okay, stop being mad. I’m fine, right? Your dad is protecting me.”
The four little ones’ eyes lit up then and turned to Xie Yunjin.
The First Born praised, “Daddy, you did the right thing. Good job.”
The Second Born nodded, “Finally daddy learned to protect mommy. We wont worry so much then.”
The Third and Fourth Born grabbed Xie Yunjin’s hands, “Daddy, you have to keep this up.”
“If someone hurts mommy, you should beat…”
The Fourth Born was about to suggest to his dad that he should beat bad men to death, but he remembered that his mom didn’t like that statement. He took a quick peek at Lu Jiao and changed his wording, “If someone hurts mommy, daddy, you should teach them a lesson.”
Lu Jiao studied the four little ones who were worried sick about her and she felt so touched and moved.
She was about to pat the four little ones’ heads and tell them she didn’t need any protection since she could protect herself when Xie Yunjin beat her to it, “I promise you to treat your mother well and make sure nobody hurts her.”
The Fourth Born interrupted, “Daddy, you also cannot hurt mommy. If you hurt mommy, we will take her side.”
The little guy even swung around his fist to show how serious he was.
The other three also stared at Xie Yunjin and waited for him to speak.
Xie Yunjin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “There’s no way I would hurt your mom. I would only protect her.”
Lu Jiao gawked at the four little ones and the one big one as they discussed in a serious manner about her safety.
She felt sad about the idea of leaving. She didn’t want to leave them and she wanted to peacefully stay by their side.
Lu Jiao didn’t allow those thoughts to stay. She changed the subject, “What did you eat when you were playing with Xiaoxiao today?”
The four little ones thought about it and answered happily, “We had fruits, desserts, and delicious dishes.”
“Xiaoxiao is great. But she kept on asking us to call her ‘older sister’.”
The Second Born wasn’t happy about that.
Lu Jiao laughed, “Xiaoxiao is older than you by a year so you should call her older sister. Plus, I have sworn her mother as my sister. Therefore, her mother will now be your aunt. That’s more of a reason why you should call Xiaoxiao sister.
The four little ones couldn’t fight that and answered, “Okay, then when we see her next, we’ll call her that.”
Lu Jiao realized that the boys seemed to have had a great time. She couldn’t help but ask, “Is Xiaoxiao a nice person?
The First Born answered this time, “She’s good. She took care of us and shared her toys.”
Xiaoxiao’s toys were nothing like theirs, but they were interesting, like a doll made out of mud and a doll made out of sugar. They also saw a roly poly, which theyd never seen before.
When Xiaoxiao noticed how much they liked the toys, she wanted to give the toys to them. The boys refused. After all, their parents taught them not to take what others love. Xiaoxiao liked those toys just as well so they should just play
“Mommy, there was another kid with us today who wanted Xiaoxiao’s toys.
When Xiaoxiao refused, the child cried. How annoying.”
The Third and Fourth Born nodded after the Second Born spoke. The children then started to discuss who, out of the group, they liked and who they didn’t
Lu Jiao grinned at them. She was relieved to hear that they got along with Xiaoxiao.
Now that she was sisters with Li Yuyao, the families will interact a lot more. It would be good if the children could play together.
The thought of Li Yuyao reminded Lu Jiao of Du Lanzhu, who obviously disliked her.
Lu Jiao was glad that she was going to separate from Xie Yunjin now. Or else there will be many rifts between the two families.
Xie Yunjin noticed Lu Jiao’s concerned expression and asked, “What’s wrong?
Lu Jiao shook her head. She didn’t really want to tell Xie Yunjin about Du Lanzhu in case it gave him a hard time.
Xie Yunjin was a bit sad, but he comforted himself. It was normal that she didn’t want to tell him everything right now. Sooner or later though, she was going to accept him and tell him everything.
After the family got back home, the four little ones were exhausted. Lu Jiao and Feng Zhi simply washed the children up and changed them into pajamas so they could nap.
Lu Jiao insisted on having the children nap to ensure their good health. Good food and sleep added up to chubby and tall children.
Once the children were put to sleep, Lu Jiao felt tired as well and went to take a nap in her room.
However, she just managed to lie down when Lu Gui came to tell her to go to the front courtyard.
“Classmate Han and his wife are here to apologize to you. Brother-in-law asked me to get you.”
Lu Jiao didn’t want to go. With how arrogant Du Lanzhu was, her forced apologies would mean nothing. She wasn’t going to be genuine anyway and was only here because classmate Han forced her. She may apologize today but ugly words will continue to spew afterward.
However, given how much classmate Han has helped them before, she had to give him face. Without a choice, she went to the front courtyard with Feng Zhi.
There, classmate Han and Xie Yunjin were talking.
“Yunjin, please forgive her. She’s a moron. You shouldn’t dispute with morons.”
Du Lanzhu glared at her husband with anger. She silently complained that he was actually the moronic one.
Why was he so loyal to a little low-ranked scholar?
Du Lanzhu silently whined but didnt say anything out loud.
She was annoyed at that Lu Jiao. Ever since her husband met that woman, he Kept on complimenting ner ana telling Du Lanznu now gooa Lu Jiao was at raising children and how respectful she was. At the same time, he would criticize Du Lanzhu for spending all her time shopping and putting on makeup..
