Chapter 197: 201 Walking Again

201 Walking Again

The next day, Lu Jiao’s family woke up to a rather large crowd outside. Both the Clan and Village Leaders were there. When they saw that Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin were awake, they led the group inside.

“It’s been a month since Yunjin’s surgery. We think he should be able to walk now?”

Lu Jiao glanced at the excited bunch and nodded, “Yes, he can start slow walking today. In another month, he should be able to roam around freely. Of course, activities such as horseback riding, swordplay, or running, need a longer period of recovery.”

The leaders were so excited they couldn’t keep their mouths closed. They circled Xie Yunjin and said, “Yunjin, try standing up and walking.”

Xie Yunjin had been practicing recently. However, worried that walking might be too strenuous on his legs, he would only walk a few steps before he sat back down.

Xie Yunjin stood up in front of everyone and walked a few steps.

Everyone inside the yard cheered loudly.

“He can walk! He can walk!”

“Oh my goodness, Yunjin is doing great!”

“That Dr. Qi is a great doctor. He managed to cure someone who was paralyzed!”

“Yes, he’s a capable guy. Yunjin’s wife, however, is just as capable.”

There were all kinds of chatter going on. It was very boisterous.

Lu Jiao wasn’t interested. She’s known for a while now that Xie Yunjin would be able to walk again. There was nothing to be this happy about.

The four little ones, however, were ecstatic. They smiled sweetly and their eyes squeezed into crescent shapes.

They hugged each other and jumped around, “This is great! Daddy can walk again!”

“Yes, he won’t be unhappy anymore. He’ll be happy every day from now on!”

“Once daddy gets better, we can go play in the county.”

The villagers didn’t stay long and slowly dispersed. These days, everyone in the village was busy and didn’t have much time for fun.

After the villagers were gone, Xie Laogen and his family came. Xie Daqiang, Xie Erzhu, Xie Yunhua, and Xie Lan all came.

However, Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan appeared rather displeased. Back when Lady Ruan was around, they were spoiled and didn’t have to do any work around the house.

Now that Chen Liu was managing the family, they could no longer just cruise. In the morning, Chen Liu would ask Xie Yunhua to get firewood from the mountains while Xie Lan helped her second sister-in-law with cooking or animal feeding. Sometimes, she would have to go into the mountains to harvest herbs.

Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan had never done all this work before. Now that they were this busy, the siblings were no longer chirpy.

No matter how mad they were, Xie Laogen didn’t step in. The siblings had to endure.

Originally, Xie Laogen didn’t want them to visit Xie Yunjin. However, they demanded to come along, as if they matured and grew responsible overnight.

They were now very clear in the head that in this family, their third brother’s words were the most useful. It was time for them to butter him up.

The bottom line was, everyone in this family had their own agenda.

Xie Laogen saw Xie Yunjin in his wheelchair and said caringly, “I thought you would be able to walk a month after the surgery. How come you are still in a wheelchair?”

Xie Daqiang asked worriedly, “Third brother, could it be that you’re not healed?”

On the inside, he hoped that his brother’s legs wouldn’t heal.

Xie Yunjin coldly glared at Xie Daqiang then said nonchalantly, “You’re overthinking it. My legs are fine. I have already walked earlier this morning and need a break. I cannot walk for a long period of time yet.”

Xie Daqiang was pretty happy to hear that, “That’s great. That’s great.”

Xie Erzhu excitedly went up and pulled on Xie Yunjin’s hand, “Third brother, I am so glad you can walk again. You can soon go back to studying.”

The smile on Xie Yunjin’s face widened at the sight of Xie Erzhu.

“Second brother, don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to me again.”

Xie Yunjin’s gaze darkened. He was determined to drag out the person hiding behind all his misfortunes. He needed to make sure he was careful enough to not get himself into those difficult situations again.

Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan smiled and stepped forward to congratulate, “Third brother, it’s great that your legs are now fine. You’ve always been smart. I’m certain that once you go back to school, you’ll be a top scorer next year.”

Xie Lan nodded and chimed in, “That’s right. My brother’s always been smart. Studying is an easy task for him.”

Xie Yunjin was emotionless as he looked at those two. Their words had absolutely no effect on him.

Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan’s hearts dropped. Did their brother hold a grudge? Would he be willing to help them in the future?

Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan couldn’t help but feel anxious.

Xie Lan turned around and found Lu Jiao making breakfast in the kitchen. She grinned and offered, “My sister-in-law is cooking? Let me help her.”

Rather than doing housework at her own home, she might as well come here and help Lu Jiao. That way, she can get on the good side of her brother and dodge the heavy workload in her own family home.

There was way more housework in the Xie family than here. Here, she wouldn’t need to farm or harvest herbs. Sometimes, she’d need to wash clothes and cook for the whole family.

Therefore, Xie Lan preferred to help Lu Jiao.

Xie Lan went to the kitchen. However, Lu Jiao came out and blocked the door.

“I don’t dare to ask someone as delicate as you for help. You should go home and help the first sister-in-law. If you decided to help me the moment the first sister-in-law became in charge, she’d think I made you come. I did no such thing.”

Xie Daqiang’s face was rather pleasant as he ordered, “Go back.”

He finally acted somewhat like the eldest of the family. He was now the head of this household and he would make anyone who was lazy pay.

Xie Lan wanted to say more but Xie Yunjin spoke up, “I’m tired. I’ll go rest.”

Xie Laogen immediately voiced, “Then, go rest. Your health is the most important.”

He then got the entire family to go back. Though Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan were unwilling, they had no choice.

Lu Jiao rolled her eyes at that family and continued to cook. Today, she prepared her children goat milk, fried eggs, and steamed buns.

The four little ones excitedly ran into the kitchen, “Mommy, daddy can really walk again.”

“Mommy, can we visit grandma together then?”

The Third and Fourth Born expectantly stared at Lu Jiao after the Second Born asked.

Lu Jiao had forgotten about this promise. Honestly, she was willing to visit home with the four little ones. However, she didn’t want Xie Yunjin to come along.

Now, the four little ones were asking the entire family to go together. What should she do?
