104 Have a Child who’s like my Sister
Lu Jiao raised an eyebrow and lightly smiled, “This medicine was created by Dr. Qi. He likely made it himself so it looks a little different.”
This pill was a western medicine pill – it looked different from traditional Chinese medicine.
Xie Yunjin didn’t suspect anything and took the pill.
After that, Lu Jiao got some porridge for him.
“After surgery, you need to rest and relax. I offered to teach the villagers herb harvesting before and I will go find the Village Leader this afternoon to tell him that he can start sending people tomorrow. The earlier everyone learns about herbs, the sooner they can start earning money.”
Xie Yunjin agreed instantly, “Okay.”
He then raised an eyebrow at Lu Jiao, “Throughout my injury, the villagers have shown me all sorts of kindness. I want to do something for them. Other than teaching them herbs, I want to start teaching the children how to read while I rest at home.
I don’t ask that they learn how to write. I think even learning how to read would be a good starting point. Do you think it’s doable?”
Lu Jiao was a little surprised. Was this guy discussing this matter with her? This should be his business and it didn’t concern her.
Since he asked, she thought about it and then suggested, “That’d be good. After all, it’s a good thing to do. I have a thought, do you want to hear it?
You just finished surgery so you shouldn’t personally teach the children right away. However, you’ve taught the quadruplets the ‘Three Character Classic’. I’m thinking the quadruplets can teach the village kids ‘Three Character Classic’ first.
Once you can move around, you can teach the children ‘Thousand Characters”. Of course, you can also teach the quadruplets first and then ask them to teach the others.”
Lu Jiao suggested this because she wanted to both teach the villagers’ children and also teach her own children. She wanted the boys to experience what it felt like to help others. She was almost certain that if she started educating the quadruplets, they wouldn’t turn out to be villains.
Though she will be leaving this place in two to three months, she still wanted to do something for the quadruplets.
The thought of leaving made Lu Jiao a little sad.
Xie Yunjin liked Lu Jiao’s suggestion. To be able to both help others and develop the quadruplets’ skills was a great idea.
Outside, the four little ones who were eating heard their conversation.
The four little ones ran into the bedroom excitedly, “Mommy, you want us to teach?”
Lu Jiao nodded, “That’s right. You learned the ‘Three Thousand Classic’ right? That means you can teach the other children.”
The Second, Third, and Fourth Born nodded with enthusiasm. The First Born took some time to think about it first before he nodded.
“Okay, we can teach them.”
Lu Jiao praised them with a smile, “Great. That way, you get to help other kids, which is a very good trait. Your dad and I are very happy for you – we are proud of you.”
Xie Yunjin’s eyes darkened. He knew that Lu Jiao was trying to urge the four little ones to do something good. That was a good thing.
He smiled at the four little ones.
The quadruplets straightened up their chests as they beamed happily.
Because he took medicine to calm him down, Xie Yunjin fell asleep very quickly. Lu Jiao wanted to give Xie Yunjin IV and didn’t want the children to see, so she distracted them, “After you eat, feed Soot and Marble.”
The children were happy to comply and ran outside right away. Lu Jiao checked on Xie Yunjin and found him quietly asleep.
Lu Jiao took out her IV needle and hypertonic saline.
Worried the children might come inside, Lu Jiao ate her porridge while standing at the bedroom door. When the children tried to go in, she stopped them, “Your daddy is asleep. If you go in, you’ll disturb him. His legs hurt so he didn’t sleep well last night. Now that he is finally asleep, let’s not make noises.”
The four little ones decided not to go inside.
For lunch, Lady Tian made chicken soup with the chicken the villagers gave them. After Xie Yunjin’s surgery, the villagers gave everyone a lot of stuff, including two chickens and a basketful of eggs. Many families also gifted rice and vegetables.
For now, Lu Jiao’s family didn’t lack food.
In the afternoon, Lu Jiao gathered a bunch of things for Lady Tian. Other than the wild chicken, rabbit, and snake she caught this morning, she packed some fruits and baked goods. She topped everything off with vegetables and Lady Tian ended up with a full basket of food.
Lady Tian didn’t know Lu Jiao snuck in fruits and baked goods. She thought there was only meat and vegetables and even that, she thought it was too much.
“You can just give me the rabbit. Save the chicken to make Yunjin soup.”
Lu Jiao stopped her, “Mom, I can get more from the mountains. Ask Lu Gui how easy it was for me to hunt this morning.”
Lu Gui nodded and looked up at Lady Tian, “Mom, you have no idea how easy it is for my sister to hunt. She sharpened some bamboo and stuck them in the trap. She left it there and that was it. The animals just fell into her trap like idiots.
I’m thinking that my sister is a very lucky person and that’s why she attracts animals in her trap.”
Lady Tian raised her eyebrow. She looked at the plowed land that grew vegetables and looked over to Lu Jiao.
Could it be that the vegetables grow well here not because the land was fortuitous, but because of her daughter?
Lu Jiao originally wanted to give Lady Tian some silver but she figured that there was no way Lady Tian would accept it. So she didn’t end up trying.
The four little ones didn’t want Lady Tian to leave. When Lu Jiao walked Lady Tian and Lu Gui out, the four little ones waved until they disappeared.
“Grandma, remember to come and visit.”
“Uncle, come play with us again.”
Lady Tian and Lu Gui got teary because of the children.
“Your sister’s children make me so emotional. I don’t even want to go back anymore.”
Lu Gui shuddered and quickly comforted, “Mom, I will give you grandchildren as cute as them. Don’t stay behind.”
Their family was waiting for their mother to go home and make tofu.
Lady Tian was quick to mock, “You can’t bear such cute children even in your next life.”
She then picked up her pace as she walked home. Behind her, Lu Gui chased after her with his face dark, “Mom, why can’t I bear cute babies like that??”
Lady Tian snickered, “Your sister’s children are cute because your brother-in-law is good-looking and knows how to teach them. Look at you. Can you even compare to your brother-in-law?”
Lu Gui was mute. After some time, he bullishly mumbled, “I can’t have children who are like the quadruplets, but I can have children who are like my sister. She’s a part of the Lu family.”
He then headed home boastfully.
