First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space-Chapter 152 - 152 I Miss you so Much Food no Longer Tastes Good
152 I Miss you so Much Food no Longer Tastes Good
After Xie Yunjin was done with his speech, the leaders slapped their legs to show their support.
“Then we will do as you suggested.”
Lu Jiao stared at Xie Yunjin in shock. This man’s brain was amazing. If he was born in her era, he would no doubt be a CEO. He managed to create the concept of a leech-keeping farm in such a short period of time.
The way Lu Jiao looked at Xie Yunjin made him silently happy. He mumbled in his brain – why was this woman staring at him like that? Even if she does like him, she should act more reservedly.
Her almost passionate gaze still made him very happy.
!!
His lips couldn’t help but curl upwards as a smile slowly ripped over his visage.
Lu Jiao had no idea what this man was thinking. She looked back to the leaders and said, “I want the Xie family to have a better quality of life and I want more children to have the chance to go to school. If we do things right, every child from the Xie Village will get to see more of the world. Only then, will the Xie Village strengthen and grow gloriously.
The morale in the village must be positive. Or else it would impact more than Yunjin, it would impact all the children.”
The leaders turned serious. They weighed Yunjin and the children very heavily.
“Yunjin’s wife, do not worry. This afternoon, when we meet with everyone, I will make sure everything is clear. If anyone dares to get a concubine the moment they start making some money, I will kick him out of the village.”
Lu Jiao nodded in satisfaction.
Outside, the laughter of children slipped through the door.
The Village and Clan Leaders bid farewell to Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin.
It was time for the children to start their lesson and they didn’t want to intrude.
Lu Jiao went to set the leaders off. As they left, they appreciatively stared at Lu Jiao, “Thank you, Yunjin’s wife.”
“Yeah, you’re truly the greatest help to set foot in the Xie Village. The clan will be thanking you and Yunjin our whole life.”
Lu Jiao waved her hand mindlessly, “It’s okay. We are from the same clan, of course, we need to help each other out.”
After the leaders left, Lu Jiao went back to the yard. Unexpectedly, someone called out from behind, “Sis.”
Lu Jiao turned and found Lu Gui there.
Lu Gui entered excitedly with a bunch of stuff in hand.
He brought two giant bundles with him, also some tofu, eggs, and other food.
Seeing the food in his hand made Lu Jiao’s head hurt. The villagers just gave them a bunch of food and today, Lu Gui came again with another whole bunch. They had way too much food now.
The key thing was that it was summer.
Though she could store everything in her space, it would be too obvious.
Lu Jiao then remembered the Lu family. The Lu family was a big one and needed lots of food. She will pack food for Lu Gui to take back.
She asked Lu Gui caringly, “How’s mom?”
Lu Gui sighed. His sister truly was his mother’s warm vest. He traveled so far to visit and she didn’t even ask him how he was.
“She’s good. She eats well, sleeps well and she’s happy.”
Their mom missed Lu Jiao and the four kids. She almost came today personally but her husband stopped her.
Lu Jiao nodded, satisfied, “That’s good. How’s the tofu-making business? Is it going well?”
This topic put Lu Gui in a good mood, “It’s great. Sis, you have no idea how happy mom and dad are now that we are making money. All the villagers are so jealous. When mom goes out, she tells others the tofu-making idea was yours, and everyone praises you for being a good daughter.”
Because of Lu Jiao, daughters were now considered more valuable in the family. Their first sister-in-law had a baby boy, and now they were determined to have a baby girl.
Their second brother now valued their daughter, Taozi, a lot more than before.
Lu Jiao didn’t try to be humble, “If you educate the girls well, they’re just as capable as you boys.”
She then stared at Lu Gui with a smile, who stretched his lips. He had nothing to say in response.
Lu Jiao suddenly remembered the matter of leech keeping and she brought it up, “Ah, I’m getting ready to teach the Xie villagers leech keeping. Go home and ask mom if she wants to learn. If she wants to keep leeches, send someone here from home when I start teaching the villagers. Then, back at home, free up some land for the leeches.”
Lu Gui raised an eyebrow and confirmed in shock, “Leeches?”
All countryside men knew leeches and most of them found them to be disgusting. They suck onto people’s legs and refuse to let go. Some even drill themselves into people’s skin and have to be slapped out.
Now his sister was suggesting that they should raise leeches? Leeches?!
Lu Gui’s face showed signs of disgust. 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m
Before they could talk more, the four little ones discovered Lu Gui.
The boys abandoned their room full of friends and dashed out.
“Uncle! You’re here.”
“Uncle! Did you miss us?”
Lu Gui threw away his bundles. He wrapped his arms around two of the boys and raised them onto his shoulders.
“That’s right. I missed you so I came to visit! Did you miss me?”
The four little ones felt guilty. To be honest, they didn’t really miss their uncle.
Lately, they’ve been so occupied with fun activities they had no time to miss their uncle. Of course, they can’t let that information slip, or else their uncle will get sad.
The First Born commented genuinely, “I missed you. I miss you so much food no longer tastes good.”
The reality was that he could eat several bowls. His uncle was not as delicious as the food his mom prepared.
The Second Born took the hint and put on a sad face, “When I miss you too much, toys no longer feel fun.”
The reality was that he could play for up to 10 years if he was allowed. It was better if his uncle didn’t find out though, or else he might cry.
“Uncle, if you didn’t come to visit, we would’ve gone to you. I missed you so much I couldn’t even sleep at night.”
“When I miss you too much, I cry in my dreams.”
Lu Gui was so touched he hugged the Third and Fourth Born and kissed their cheeks, “I will visit you every chance I get.”
Lu Jiao stared at Lu Gui and speechlessly stretched her mouth. The four little ones had a busy schedule and were so happy playing they had no energy to miss their uncle. That idiot sure had the audacity to believe them.
Lu Jiao said, “Okay, put them down.”
Lu Gui put down the Third and Fourth Born, then did the same with the First and Second Born before he put them back down too.
He picked up the bundles he brought and happily announced, “Here are gifts from your grandparents, and your other uncles and aunts.”
