Chapter 97 - 97 Beating up Xie Daqiang

97 Beating up Xie Daqiang

Xie Yunjin did feel pain creep up his legs. The pain was severe.

He did his best to endure and he asked Lu Jiao, “How did the surgery go? Are my legs okay?”

Lu Jiao smiled and responded, “Don’t worry, the surgery was a success. As long as you take the time to rest, you will heal. In two months, you’ll be able to walk again. In three months, you should be able to jump around and do everything you used to do.”

Light shot out of Xie Yunjin’s eyes as excitement filled his brows. Unable to contain his happiness, a smile appeared on his lips.

“Good, good.”

Finally, his legs will heal and finally, he’ll be able to walk again. At once, he started to feel thankful towards the Gods and thankful that he was given a reason to get motivated.

Inside the room, the Village Leader and the villagers started telling Yunjin to take care of his legs.

“Yunjin, now that you’ve gotten surgery, remember to rest.”

“Yes, do nothing but rest. If you need anything, ask for me.”

“Yes, yes.”

After everyone said what they wanted, they left one by one, leaving behind the gifts they brought, including eggs, rice, noodles, vegetables, and even two chickens.

Lu Jiao felt bad taking all these. Some people had a hard time getting by and didn’t even eat this stuff regularly.

She went outside with the Clan and Village Leader and tried to tell him to take everything back. The Leaders, however, frowned and lectured her.

“Are you saying this stuff isn’t good enough for you? The most important thing right now is to nourish Yunjin.”

What else could Lu Jiao say but thank them?

Inside the east bedroom, Xie Yunjin recognized the situation and reminded Lu Jiao when she returned helplessly, “Accept the stuff. We’ll repay the favor another day.”

Lu Jiao nodded. She stared at Xie Yunjin, “Didn’t we say we’d teach everyone how to harvest herbs? Now that your surgery is done, I can start doing that in a few days.”

“Okay.”

Xie Yunjin nodded.

Lu Jiao noticed that his lips were dry. She got up to get him some sugar water and snuck in a few drops of spiritual water.

The moment Lu Jiao brought in the water, Xie Laogen came over with Xie Daqiang.

There was nobody else but those two.

When Lu Jiao saw those two, she greeted, “Dad, brother, you’re here.”

Xie Laogen and Xie Daqiang didn’t answer and pretended they didn’t even hear her.

Lu Jiao didn’t mind. She fed Xie Yunjin water and exited the room with the empty bowl.

Behind her, Xie Laogen and Xie Daqiang caringly asked Xie Yunjin about how he was doing.

Lu Jiao pretended not to hear. Outside, Lady Tian looked unwell. She followed Lu Jiao and whispered, “What’s wrong with your father-in-law? I greeted him and he didn’t answer.”

Lu Jiao shook her head, “Don’t mind them. Their brains are damaged.”

They then discussed what they should make for dinner. Since Xie Yunjin just had surgery, Lu Jiao decided to make vegetable porridge tonight. She’ll use the vegetables she planted previously in her yard. Those have grown to the size of her hand and were ready to get cooked.

Lu Jiao went to harvest her greens while Lady Tian mysteriously mumbled.

“Jiaojiao, I have something to discuss with you.”

Lu Jiao stared blankly. Lady Tian lowered her voice, “The land where your house is must be a rich piece of land. Once you make money, remember to build a giant mansion here and seal off the area. If you do that, you’re destined to generate great wealth.”

Surprised, Lu Jiao asked, “Mom, how can you tell this piece of land is rich?”

Lady Tian inched in closer, “When I first arrived, your greens just sprouted. Look at them now. Within days, they’ve grown this big and healthy. They grew better than other families’ farms. So I think the soil here is better.

Make sure not to lose this piece of land. Once you are rich, build a house to secure it.”

Lu Jiao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Her vegetables grow well because she watered them with her spiritual stream water. Her mother thought it was because the soil was treasurable.

Since she couldn’t really explain this to Lady Tian, she nodded, “Okay.”

She picked some more greens and headed to the kitchen.

Before she arrived, she heard crying coming from the east bedroom.

The quadruplets were crying – howling.

Lu Jiao’s heart dropped and she picked up her steps.

Before she entered the room, she heard Xie Daqiang’s furious voice, “You bastard! I am your uncle! You dare to curse at me? I will teach you a lesson.”

Lu Jiao rushed inside and saw that Xie Daqiang had grabbed onto the Second Born and was ready to slap him.

Xie Yunjin’s face was eerily dark and disdain shot out of his eyes.

Lu Jiao flew inside and held onto the Second Born. She then pushed Xie Daqiang away. With a deep frown, she yelled, “Xie Daqiang, this is my home. What do you think you are doing?”

Lu Jiao’s face made Xie Daqiang angry. It was all because of this b!tch that his third brother became this stubborn. For days now, his parents have been trying to repair their relationship, yet his third brother refused to forgive them.

His third brother didn’t use to act like this. Everything was different now because of this b!tch.

She wanted to possess his third brother all by herself? In her dreams!

Xie Daqiang marched towards Lu Jiao. Seeing the violent and ferocious way he looked at her, Lu Jiao raised her leg and kicked him.

Though Xie Daqiang was tall and buff, he was no match for Lu Jiao’s strength. Plus, he wasn’t mentally prepared. At once, he was stomped onto the ground.

Even after this, Lu Jiao remained angry. Everyone from that family was damaged in the head! She’s been more than forgiving for Xie Yunjin’s sake but they refuse to behave themselves.

Lu Jiao walked forward and stepped directly onto Xie Daqiang’s hand, hard. Xie Daqiang screamed in pain. Still furious, Lu Jiao stomped directly onto Xie Daqiang. Once… twice…

Xie Daqiang’s face twitched as he screamed. Occasionally, he cursed, “You b!tch! You dare to hit me?! I’m going to end you!”

Xie Laogen didn’t expect Lu Jiao to hit her own brother-in-law right in front of everyone. His face quivered.

However, witnessing just how serious Lu Jiao was being, he didn’t dare to go up there and hit her. So he stayed there while trembling.

In the end, he decided to look over to Xie Yunjin and murmur, “Look, look, this is the kind of woman you chose to marry.”
