First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space - Chapter 121
121 How Amazing
The Fourth Born looked up to Lu Jiao and gestured, “Mommy, I’m going to make this much money in the future. I will buy you yummy food every day. I will also buy you pretty clothes. I want mommy to be happy every day.”
The kid was so thrilled he was practically dancing.
Lu Jiao’s lips couldn’t help but stretch upwards as well. He patted the Fourth Born’s head, “Okay, I will wait for that day.”
She then divided up the cake a little and held it out for her kids, “You guys eat some too. After you are done, we will have lunch. This afternoon, the children from the village will be here. You guys will need to teach them the ‘Three Character Classic.’”
!!
The four little ones were excited to teach the others. The idea of them becoming little teachers delighted them.
The children and Lu Jiao finished the cake.
Lu Jiao scooped out the food and brought everything to the living room. She asked the four little ones to eat first while she took some to feed Xie Yunjin.
Xie Yunjin however, told her to eat first.
“You’ve been so busy. You should eat first.”
Lu Jiao didn’t mind, “It’s okay. The kids gave me some cake just now. Let me feed you first.”
Xie Yunjin wanted to argue but Lu Jiao ignored him and started to feed him.
Xie Yunjin straightened up a little, “Lu Jiao, my legs don’t hurt as much anymore. Do you think I can sit up more? If I can, I can eat by myself.”
Other than his legs, Xie Yunjin’s concussion and internal injuries improved drastically. Even his broken ribs were no longer painful.
Lu Jiao decided sitting upright should be okay as long as he was careful.
“Then I will help you sit up. Don’t move your legs.”
Lu Jiao helped him up and put the food in front of him.
“Are you okay to eat by yourself?”
“That’s fine. You go eat too.”
Xie Yunjin was very relaxed and there was joy in his eyes. His handsome face was like smooth jade, exuding elegance and warmth.
These days, the eeriness around him dissipated and he was much milder.
Lu Jiao couldn’t help but stare at him a little. She silently hoped that this guy would not end up as the villain.
She turned around to go eat. Xie Yunjin stopped him, “Lu Jiao.”
Lu Jiao looked back at him. Xie Yunjin sincerely said, “Thank you.”
Lu Jiao grinned, “Why are you being so polite? Hurry and eat.”
Lu Jiao left. Behind her, Xie Yunjin lifted an eyebrow. Lu Jiao appeared to have lost weight again. Though she was still chubby, she gave away moments of dazzlingness. Her straight teeth and kind smile were like a flower blossoming in the spring.
Xie Yunjin’s mood lifted even more as he started to eat.
He originally thought he had trapped himself in quicksand and was slowly sinking into hell. Who knew his future now looked bright again all thanks to this woman?
No longer able to contain his happiness, Xie Yunjin beamed.
Outside his room, Lu Jiao’s voice occasionally drifted over. Her voice was pleasant, affectionate, and sweet to the ear like a waterfall in the mountains.
“This afternoon, you’ll be teaching other children the ‘Three Character Classic’. You four take turns teaching. Be friendly to the kids, don’t be mean. Most children here have never learned how to read, so you must be patient.”
“Mommy, we know.”
The four little ones were exceptionally excited today. Lu Jiao nodded with a grin and continued, “After we eat, I will make you a toy. You can play with the other children later.”
A toy! The four little ones were elated. They looked at Lu Jiao, “Mommy, what toy are you making us?”
“A skateboard.”
There was a reason why Lu Jiao chose skateboards. Children should exercise. Once they exercise, they will eat more. Once they eat more, they will grow fatter and taller.
The four little ones had no idea what a skateboard was but that didn’t stop them from being excited.
“Mommy, can we make that as soon as we are done eating?”
“Of course. I will make it for you once I’m done.”
Lu Jiao’s lips curled as she watched the kids. Now that Xie Yunjin had surgery and only needed to rest, she will focus her energy on fattening up the four little ones. She was going to make sure they establish good habits.
She decided that starting tomorrow, she will create a schedule for the children. Once she leaves, they can continue to follow that schedule.
The four children and their mom excitedly discussed skateboarding. Inside the bedroom, Xie Yunjin couldn’t help but smile at the rowdiness. The aura emitted out of him grew warmer and gentler.
After lunch, Lu Jiao cleaned up the dishes. Then went back to the east bedroom to clean up.
The four little ones followed her around like baby chicks and circled her.
Once they entered the room, they announced to Xie Yunjin, “Daddy, mommy is going to make a new toy.”
“A skateboard.”
“We are going to make it with mommy.”
“Mommy said a skateboard is one board and two wheels. The person can stand on top and roll around.”
Xie Yunjin knew right away what kind of toy it was based on the Fourth Born’s description. He was a little worried, however, “Is skateboarding dangerous?”
Lu Jiao shook her head, “It’s okay. I’m going to make the wheels with wood. It won’t be too dangerous.”
The roads were mostly made out of mud. If it was concrete, it would be more dangerous.
Xie Yunjin stopped worrying, “Still be careful.”
“Daddy, we know. We will be.”
“Okay.”
Xie Yunjin watched them leave. The way Lu Jiao carefully and tenderly took care of the children created a sense of affection in Xie Yunjin. How did the four little ones get so lucky to have gotten Lu Jiao as a mother?
He’s never met a mother as kind as her. When he was young, he was often jealous of those kids who had caring moms. Sadly, his mother wasn’t like that.
Because he lacked maternal love as a child, he grew up rather cold. And because he was cold, his parents liked him even less.
Only once Master Chen saw his talent and admitted him as his pupil, did his parents start to treat him better. Sadly, the only reason they did that was because of his ability to fulfill their pride.
Once again, Xie Yunjin felt some negative energy engulf him. However, it dissipated quickly. His old life was so far away from him now, why bother thinking about those unhappy days?
Outside the room, Lu Jiao started to make skateboards. Her method of construction was extremely easy. She made two wooden wheels and stabilized them on the board. She then asked the children to try sliding while on top.
“Remember, keep your body balanced.”
The four little ones had never played with this so they were a little afraid.
The Second Born bravely volunteered to try first.
The Second Born fell twice. By the third time, he managed to stand on top and moved forward a little.
The other three watched him in awe.
This skateboard was amazing. People who stood on top could fly.
The Third and Fourth Born started to scream excitedly – they wanted to try.
Lu Jiao then made two more. Now they had three skateboards to share amongst the four of them.
The Third and Fourth Born quickly learned how to play. Only the First Born couldn’t figure it out and continued to fall.
Stubborn, the little guy was determined to win against the skateboard. Every time he fell, he refused to cry. He would stand back up and hop on again to try.
Later, the Second Born came over to teach him how to maintain his posture, keep his balance, and roll forward.
Lu Jiao watched the four little ones happily. After a while, the other children from the Xie Village all arrived.
They watched with jealousy as the four little ones skateboarded inside the yard.
