Chapter 239: 243 A Lock on the Door

243 A Lock on the Door

Xie Yunjin decided that if the broker fails to come tomorrow, he’ll go personally to find a broker and buy some servants. This house was so big Lu Jiao and Lu Gui needed help.

Lu Jiao was going to be busy changing up the front courtyard, raising the children, and seeing patients.

The thought of Lu Jiao’s job as a doctor made Xie Yunjin think of Baohe Tang and the town of Qili. They were now very far from the town of Qili. Could it be that Lu Jiao would need to go all the way there when Baohe Tang gets a patient who was difficult to treat?

Xie Yunjin was anxious about that. However, he was also slightly happy. If Lu Jiao could stop going to Qili, then she won’t have to interact with that Dr. Qi and Owner Zhao.

“You agreed to consult patients at Baohe Tang. Now that we moved into the city, are you still going to do that? It seems really inconvenient.”

Lu Jiao smiled, “It’s okay. Owner Zhao said he will be relocating Baohe Tang to the city of Qinghe County. It would be easier for me to see patients that way.”

Xie Yunjin started to grit his teeth. That Owner Zhao was truly haunting. Was he relocating Baohe Tang because he was a clever businessman, or because he had his eyes on Lu Jiao?

Logically speaking, that shouldn’t be the case. After all, Lu Jiao was his wife. That man, however, still worried him.

Xie Yunjin coldly snickered, “Owner Zhao sure is thoughtful.”

Before Lu Jiao could answer, Lu Gui came out of the kitchen, “Sister, the water is done boiling. I’ll bring it to the front.”

“Sure, let’s wash the four little ones together.”

Lu Jiao then turned to Xie Yunjin, “You should get some hot water and wash up too.”

Xie Yunjin shook his head, “I’m in no rush. Let me help you bathe the kids. I also want to give you the deed.”

The mention of the deed made Lu Jiao agree. The three of them carried the two giant buckets of water to the children to wash them. After the bath, Lu Jiao brought them to their room.

Lu Gui went to dump out the water while Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin headed to the east bedroom.

“Here is the deed. I left your name here.”

Lu Jiao took a look and actually saw her own name on it.

She couldn’t help but giggle. Xie Yunjin was ahead of his time.

The deed made Lu Jiao grin from ear to ear. If Xie Yunjin wasn’t here, she would’ve kissed that piece of paper. This was her first real estate in this era and it represented the fact that she had rooted herself here.

The sight of happy Lu Jiao softened Xie Yunjin’s eyes. So this woman liked houses. That means once he makes more money, he will have to buy a lot of properties and leave her name on all of them.

At this very moment, Xie Yunjin had forgotten all about their pending divorce.

He only snapped back to reality when Lu Jiao reminded him almost shyly, “It’s late. You should wash up and go to sleep in the front courtyard.”

Xie Yunjin was slightly disappointed. However, he knew that given their situation, it was only right to stay in separate rooms.

Xie Yunjin headed to the door. However, before he got there, he heard a “clunk” that indicated someone had hung something on the door. He pulled on the door and found it to be locked.

Subconsciously, he looked toward Lu Jiao. Lu Jiao walked over and pulled on the door knob. It was true, someone had locked the door from the outside. Lu Jiao looked through the crack and saw the four children standing outside in a line.

Angry, she scolded, “What are you doing?! Why would you lock the door? Hurry up and open it.”

The First Born quickly responded, “Mommy, you promised that you would start sleeping with daddy once we move.”

The other three also chimed in, “Mommy and daddy should sleep together.”

“That way, we’ll get a little sister soon.”

“Once we get a little sister, mommy won’t leave anymore. Grandma taught us that.”

Inside the room, Lu Jiao’s face grew dark. Just what did her mother teach these kids? Plus, she promised them she would discuss the matter once they move into the city. She never agreed to start sleeping with their dad.

Lu Jiao lied to the kids, “We haven’t even washed up. We need to wash up.”

The four little ones became bewildered.

Just then, the First Born shouted, “It’s no big deal to not bathe for one night.”

Lu Jiao almost cursed. What kind of children were they?!

Xie Yunjin marched closer to the door and seriously scolded, “Stop joking around. If we don’t bathe, we can’t sleep.”

His words somehow managed to make the four children cry, “You two don’t actually want to sleep together, do you?”

“Daddy, do you still not like mommy?”

“Are you still planning on divorcing?”

The Fourth Born cried the loudest, “Mommy, you’re still going to leave us?”

Since the four little ones were now crying, Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao stopped scolding. They soothed them in a soft voice, “That’s not true. Don’t cry. We are not saying we won’t sleep together, we just need to wash up.”

“Does that mean you will sleep together after washing up?”

The two adults exchanged glances. Xie Yunjin quickly whispered to Lu Jiao, “I think we have to do as they ask for now. Don’t worry, we’ll do what we did at your mom’s place. You can sleep on the bed and I’ll sleep on the ground. In the future, I will stay in the front courtyard most days by using my studies as an excuse. Occasionally, I’ll come here so the children don’t feel bad. Do you think that’s okay?”

Xie Yunjin then added, “Don’t worry. I won’t take advantage of you.”

He didn’t need to take advantage of her in any way to want to be in the same room as her. Being with her made him happy.

Lu Jiao listened to him and thought of the children. Her head hurt but in the end, agreed. They’ve made such a fuss already back at the Xie Village over this matter. If they didn’t do as they said, the four little ones might just cause chaos again.

“Okay, we’ll do as you suggested.”

After the two of them agreed, they said to the children, “We’ll go to sleep after we wash up.”

The four little ones got excited right away and asked, “Mommy, are you for real?”

Lu Jiao could only nod, “Of course.”

The four little ones trusted their parents a lot because they’d always done as they promised.

They started to cheer excitedly, “Then, wait a second, mommy and daddy, we will unlock the door.”

The four little ones started tinkering outside. Unfortunately, they couldn’t figure out how to unlock the door. In the end, the First Born said, “Go ask uncle to come and unlock the door.”

“Okay, I will go.”

The Second Born went out and the Third Born followed him.

The two adults inside the room naturally understood what was happening. There was a lock on the door and the lock was given to the children by Lu Gui. There was no other way the children could’ve gotten their hands on a lock. If things went as they expected, Lu Gui was the one who got tricked.

Lu Jiao silently cursed his little brother for being stupid. How could someone like that dream to be a steward? He was the type to count his cash after getting trafficked.
