Chapter 233: 237 It's you who Owe us

237 It’s you who Owe us

Lu Jiao stared at Xie Yunjin and said, “Master Chen was your teacher and I saved his life once. You truly don’t owe the Chen family anything.”

Then, she added, “If it weren’t for me, he wouldn’t have survived his illness.”

Xie Yunjin gaped at her meaningfully, “That would mean, I owe you.”

Lu Jiao grinned, “That’s okay. If I ever need something, I will for sure go to you and cash in that favor.”

This man was going to be the future First Assistant. If she ever needed anything, she would for sure ask him for help.

Xie Yunjin felt slightly sad, but because she smiled, his heart felt soft and warm. At this moment, all sorts of emotions flooded him.

The four little ones couldn’t fully read what was going on between their parents. However, seeing how they spoke and smiled, they giggled out of happiness.

The horse carriage soon arrived in Qili, Master Chen’s house.

Given Master Chen’s illness from before, he needed to rest for at least three months. Therefore, he spent most of his time at home these days. As for the school, he asked his youngest son to substitute.

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao’s arrival was very much welcomed by Master Chen, Lady Chen, and their son Chen Muwu.

Chen Muwu’s wife, however, didn’t appear so happy. Her face was long as if Xie Yunjin’s family owed them money.

No matter how much Chen Muwu signaled for her to stop, she remained upset and continued to mumble, “It’s better to raise a dog than a certain someone. We spent so many resources raising that person yet earned nothing. My poor sister-in-law died in vain.”

The entire Chen family’s faces dropped. Chen Muwu scolded, “Why are you talking so much nonsense?!”

His wife straightened her back and glared at Chen Muwu, “Am I wrong to say that? If it weren’t for him, your sister wouldn’t have died.”

Chen Muwu huffed and puffed at her, “If you don’t know how to speak properly, don’t speak at all!”

He then ignored his wife and apologized to Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao, “My wife was being inappropriate. I hope you aren’t mad.”

Xie Yunjin was about to defend himself over the matter from years ago. However, Lu Jiao beat him to it, “I really shouldn’t make a fuss about what’s been said. However, Yunjin is a scholar who’s going to take the provincial exam soon. If those words got out, it’ll be very bad for Yunjin’s reputation and may even impact his future. Therefore, I want to dispute what the missus had just said.

First of all, I must first make it clear that back then, Yunjin was able to go to school all thanks to his grandpa’s persistence. It was Yunjin’s grandpa who told Master Chen about Yunjin’s talent and bribed him to convince Yunjin’s parents to send him to school. As for why Master Chen stopped taking bribes years later – that was because Yunjin proved himself and master Chen saw his value. He saw Yunjin as a resource that may be proven later on. Though Yunjin is still indebted to Master Chen, Yunjin truly doesn’t owe the Chen family much.

After that, Yunjin wanted to marry Master Chen’s daughter as a way to repay Master Chen. Though it didn’t work out, he had good intentions. It was the Chen family who refused to visit Yunjin for four years and blamed Yunjin for what happened. Finally, I want to bring up the fact that I saved Master Chen’s life. That event alone makes up for everything that’s happened in the past.

I can confidently say that if Master Chen didn’t find me that day, nobody else would’ve saved him. If you want me to do that math, it appears to me that it is the Chen family who is indebted to us.”

Lu Jiao finished and the entire room was silent.

Chen Muwu and his wife stared at Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao in shock. They then looked over at their parents.

They’ve always believed that their father was the only reason why Xie Yunjin was able to go to school. If their father didn’t pester Xie Yunjin’s parents about sending him to school, Xie Yunjin’s parents never would’ve.

Yet now, Xie Yunjin’s wife was saying that the reason why Xie Yunjin was sent to school had nothing to do with their father. It was his grandpa who plotted it all?

In this scenario, a man paid their father to teach their grandchild. Of course, their father was willing to do some work to get the kid to come. More students meant more tuition. Every teacher would be more than willing to do that.

It was just that this version of the story wasn’t the version they knew of.

Chen Muwu’s wife had a very ugly expression on her face, “What are you talking about? It was my father who-”

Master and Lady Chen’s expressions dropped. They didn’t expect Xie Yunjin to find out the truth.

In the beginning, they didn’t plan on making Xie Yunjin feel like he owed him. It just so happened that Xie Yunjin never found out the truth and the couple got selfish and enjoyed how he treated them. They didn’t think that there’d come a day when their omission of information would be caught.

Master Chen felt his blood pressure rise. His face grew ugly and he couldn’t think of anything to say.

Lady Chen rushed to his side and patted down his chest. She then looked over to Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao pleadingly.

Xie Yunjin got out of his seat, “The master isn’t well. And needs rest. My wife and children and I shall leave first. When I get the time, I will visit again.”

Lady Chen nodded, “Thank you, Yunjin.”

Xie Yunjin, Lu Jiao, and the four little ones left the Chen residence. Behind them, Chen Muwu’s wife was still shouting, “Stop right where you are! You can’t leave until we clear the air! My father-in-law was the one who sponsored you, how dare you accuse him! You’re such a b-”

Before Chen Muwu could curse, Master Chen howled, “Shut up!”

Chen Muwu stopped and looked at Master Chen.

Chen Muwu noticed how ill his father appeared and glared at his wife. However, he couldn’t help but ask, “Father, everything Yunjin’s wife said is true?”

Master Chen’s face darkened even more. Beside him, Lady Chen hurriedly answered, “Enough, don’t ask your father. He’s not feeling well and needs rest.”

Because of his parents’ reaction, Chen Muwu knew that Yunjin’s wife had spoken the truth. The reason why Xie Yunjin was able to go to school had nothing to do with his father. It was just as Yunjin’s wife had said – Yunjin’s grandfather had paid his father to get Yunjin to school. His father only stopped charging tuition because of his own selfish intentions. Yunjin wasn’t indebted to his father. On the contrary, his family was wrong in trying to get Yunjin to marry his little sister. It was also wrong of them to blame Yunjin for her death.

The more Chen Muwu thought about it, the more speechless he was. His wife, however, continued to shout, “We can’t just let this go! We have to clear this up! My father-in-law sponsored him! Without him-”

Chen Muwu screamed at his wife after he sneered at her, “Shut up! It’s all because of your inability to shut up that everything got so ugly today!”

If his wife didn’t accuse Xie Yunjin, perhaps Xie Yunjin would’ve kept quiet and pretended to not know. Their families wouldn’t be awkward like they were now.

Chen Muwu looked at the woman beside him and felt like he was blind to have married such a moronic person. Even now, she still couldn’t read between the lines.
