First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space-Chapter 141 - 141 He was giving the Children to her for her to Raise
141 He was giving the Children to her for her to Raise
Xie Yunjin called out, “Lu Jiao.”
Lu Jiao indicated for the four little ones to eat. She got some porridge and a plate of veggies and went to the east bedroom.
“Do you want some sheep milk?”
Xie Yunjin declined right away. He had lamb once in the city. He took one bite before he lost interest. Milk from a sheep was likely more gamey than their meat – he wouldn’t be able to stomach it.
Lu Jiao didn’t persist seeing how much he appeared to hate the idea.
Xie Yunjin was an adult and she’s been giving him spiritual stream water and good nutritious food. He would be fine without sheep milk.
The four little ones, however, were far too skinny and small. Even with spiritual stream water, she wasn’t sure if they could grow tall. It was better for them to get natural sources of nutrition.
“Have breakfast.”
Now that Xie Yunjin could eat by himself and didn’t need to be fed, it saved her a lot of energy.
Lu Jiao handed Xie Yunjin the food and turned to leave.
Behind her, Xie Yunjin called out, “Lu Jiao.”
Lu Jiao thought he needed something and walked to him, “You need something?”
Xie Yunjin gestured for Lu Jiao to sit. He seemed to really want to talk to her about something, so she sat down and stared at him.
Xie Yunjin’s gaze was calm as he spoke slowly, “You have educated the four children well. They are also good kids with morals. If you are able to continue educating them, they will be very filial towards you once they grow up.” ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖
Xie Yunjin didn’t mention the separation because the four little ones were sitting outside and eating. If he said those words, they would be alerted and scared.
Therefore, Xie Yunjin decided to hint at it. He was certain that Lu Jiao would get it.
But Lu Jiao didn’t understand and stared at Xie Yunjin, confused.
Xie Yunjin’s heart skipped a beat and asked, “You don’t get it?”
Lu Jiao shook her head honestly, “I don’t get it.”
Can’t he straight up say what he wanted to say? Why must he take the detour route to get it out?
Xie Yunjin’s eyes darkened and added, “I have thought it through clearly and decided that the children should not grow up without a mother. The mother figure is irreplaceable to children. So…”
A light appeared to flicker on top of Lu Jiao’s head. She seemed to have understood.
Her heart pounded and she rejoiced. Loudly, she shouted, “I get what you mean now!”
He was giving the children to her for her to raise! What an unexpected surprise! The gods were truly kind to her.
Xie Yunjin’s heart skipped a beat when he saw how happy Lu Jiao got.
This woman got so happy just because they weren’t separating. This must mean she liked him just as much as she liked the four little ones.
Xie Yunjin didn’t detest the idea. If she was willing to do her best at taking care of the four little ones, he’ll allow her to like him.
Did she really have to react this excitedly? Did she like him that much?
Inside the room, Lu Jiao extended her hands and cupped Xie Yunjin’s, “Don’t worry, I will teach them to love their father.”
She knew that even though Xie Yunjin was letting her raise the children, he would never allow them to take her last name. The children would still belong to him. He’s simply asking her to take care of them.
She didn’t care. As long as she ensures the little guys walk down the right path and don’t become villains, she would feel accomplished even if they do end up returning to their father.
Xie Yunjin stared at how Lu Jiao held his hands. It appeared that he was correct to think that this woman liked him. That was fine. As long as she took care of the four little ones, he won’t hurt her.
Xie Yunjin gently said, “Go eat your breakfast.”
Lu Jiao nodded with a grin, “Okay, call me if you need something.”
Xie Yunjin could tell how happy she was, and he couldn’t help but notice the positive change in his mood as well.
These two people were having opposite thoughts, yet they were getting along so well. ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂
Outside the room, the four little ones could tell their mommy was in an exceptionally good mood today.
The First Born raised an eyebrow, “Mommy, you seem happy.”
The sight of the four little guys brought even more joy to Lu Jiao. How great was it that she didn’t need to separate from the children anymore!
She went to kiss each one of the four kids.
“Yes, I am in a great mood. I will make you a lot of good food for lunch.”
The four little ones cheered, “You’re so great, mommy!”
These days, even the First and Third Born became more outgoing.
The four little ones were getting more and more confident each day. The fearful and carefulness they had before vanished.
Now, they were always smiling with light in their eyes.
After breakfast, the four little ones went to play with their toys. Lu Jiao grabbed medicine to give to Xie Yunjin.
Xie Yunjin brought up teaching Lu Jiao how to read.
Since she’d been so busy, she’d had no time to learn. Now that most things have settled, she could stick to a learning schedule. She must learn all the characters before her separation.
Because then, she’ll be able to open her own pharmacy. There was no way she was going to tell Qi Lei she didn’t know how to read. That would be embarrassing to admit for a Master.
Lu Jiao smiled at Xie Yunjin, “I’ll spend an hour every day after breakfast to learn how to read from you. The kids can play while I do so.”
Xie Yunjin agreed, “Then let’s get started.”
Lu Jiao got out a copy of the Three Character Classic. Honestly, she had it memorized. But it was too time-consuming to match her memory to the characters one by one. It was easier to have Xie Yunjin teach her.
Lu Jiao sat before the desk and waited for Xie Yunjin to start teaching.
Xie Yunjin looked towards the woman at the desk and found her to have lost weight again. Her originally chubby and large face had shrunk. Her almond-shaped eyes and cherry-red lips were now more visible. Though there was still fat on her face, her skin was smoother than silk and the sight of her didn’t trigger any disgust. Instead, it brought a gorgeous glow.
Xie Yunjin looked down and found her clothes to have gotten ill-fitting. Since she lost weight, her clothes now hung off her body bulkily.
He remembered the new sets of clothes she bought him and the four little ones last time and he couldn’t help but ask, “Your clothes are too big for you now. Why don’t you buy some new ones for yourself?”
Didn’t all women enjoy looking beautiful? This woman had obviously lost weight and gotten more beautiful, so why didn’t she treat herself to some new clothes?
Lu Jiao originally sat in the chair with her back straight and was eager to learn. In the end, she learned nothing, and he started to talk to her about clothes.
Shocked, she looked at Xie Yunjin and found him to be studying her clothes.
Her first instinct was to snap back. What did her clothes have to do with him? She wore what she liked, why did he care?
But she quickly remembered how Xie Yunjin had just given her the children. She calmed down and decided to treat him nicely. After all, he was being nice. And if she pissed him off, he may take back the four little ones.
