Chapter 148: 149

149 Something was Wrong with his Head

The villagers wouldn’t take no for an answer and left all the gifts to Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao.

Stuff filled the east bedroom. Other than food from town, the villagers brought eggs and vegetables from their homes.

Lu Jiao felt overwhelmed. Luckily, she had her space to put all this in. Or else she’ll never finish all this food.

Xie Yunjin also felt a headache and suggested, “The food will likely go bad if we just put them here. Why not give some to your mom?”

Naturally, Lu Jiao didn’t object. Sadly, she had no time to go right now. She had promised the four little ones she’d take them the next time she went.

With Xie Yunjin still bedridden, if she took the children with her, he would be home alone.

Lu Jiao thought about it and shook her head, “I don’t have to go right now. I will store what I can and pickle some vegetables. That will help the shelf life.”

She’ll put everything into her space and pretend to have pickled some.

Xie Yunjin didn’t persist.

Lu Jiao started to clean up and the four little ones helped her.

“Mommy, we will help you.”

The four little ones were very proud to have Lu Jiao as a mother right now. Not only was she amazing, every one appreciated her and loved her whole family as a result.

Though the villagers never treated the children poorly before, they weren’t as warm as they were now.

Not only were the children helping them, but the adults also smiled at them. So if you help others, others are thankful to you.

The four little ones felt like they opened the door to a whole new world.

Lu Jiao cleaned up all the stuff off the ground and brought the four little ones to the kitchen to make tanghulu.

She made one tanghulu for each one of them. They wanted more but Lu Jiao stopped them and put away the rest. She told them to eat more tomorrow to avoid getting cavities.

Lu Jiao washed them up and planned to tell them a story. That was when she realized that Xie Erzhu didn’t show up tonight.

Why was that? Lu Jiao went to ask Xie Yunjin, “How come the Second Brother didn’t come today?”

Every night, Xie Erzhu would come over and help Xie Yunjin. Yet today, he still hasn’t shown up. Could something have happened?

Xie Yunjin had a troubled expression. It was most likely that his brother was kept by his mother.

That possibility annoyed him to no end and he coldly snickered.

However, by the time he looked at Lu Jiao, his face was gentle, “I don’t think he’ll come tonight.”

Lu Jiao knew then that Xie Erzhu likely didn’t come today because his mother had some kind of plan for Xie Yunjin. It was likely Chen Liu went home and complained about Lu Jiao to Lady Ruan, which caused Lady Ruan to ban Xie Erzhu from coming.

That group of people was truly disgusting.

Lu Jiao asked, “What do you want to do for tonight then?”

She didn’t mind helping Xie Yunjin with the portable potty. Sadly, the future First Assistant wasn’t willing and acted like she was taking advantage.

“What if I go get someone else? I think Xue Duojin is a good choice.”

Xie Yunjin declined. He couldn’t accept anyone helping him with this other than his brother. The only reason he was okay with Xie Erzhu doing it was because they grew up together and he was used to it.

“It’s okay. I can take care of myself. Help me get a chamber pot.”

Xie Yunjin felt awkward. However, he remembered that Lu Jiao was his wife, and he calmed down. Since he had accepted Lu Jiao, they will eventually do wife and husband things. Therefore, from now on, he should get used to Lu Jiao existing in his life.

Xie Yunjin then looked at Lu Jiao calmly.

Lu Jiao was the one who was stunned this time. Before this man acted like she was taking advantage of him yet now, he acted like this was all normal.

Since Xie Erzhu wasn’t coming, she had to take matters into her own hands.

Lu Jiao found the chamber pot and passed it to Xie Yunjin.

Other than his legs, Xie Yunjin was fine moving around. He took the chamber pot and planned on peeing in it.

Lu Jiao was self-aware and left the room, making Xie Yunjin sigh. Though he decided to accept Lu Jiao, this felt weird.

Her leaving made him very relieved.

Soon the sound of peeing could be heard. Only once it stopped did Lu Jiao go back in and took the chamber pot away. She dumped it then washed it, along with her hands.

It used to always be Xie Erzhu who helped wipe down Xie Yunjin every night. Since he wasn’t here, Xie Yunjin had to do it himself today.

Lu Jiao asked quickly, “Do you need my help?”

She said it out of courtesy thinking that Xie Yunjin would for sure decline. However, Xie Yunjin softly agreed, “Okay.”

Lu Jiao thought she heard him wrong and stared at him in awe.

She must’ve heard him wrong… she must’ve.

Xie Yunjin saw how round Lu Jiao’s eyes got and thought she looked just like a small scared animal. His mood lifted and he wanted to make fun of Lu Jiao.

“What is it?”

Lu Jiao shook her head, “Nothing. I’ll go get some water.”

She was simply too shocked. Before, this man acted like she was the thief that he needed to avoid. Yet now, he was okay with her wiping him down. Something’s not right. What was the problem?

Lu Jiao couldn’t figure it out.

Back inside the room, Xie Yunjin chuckled. Only when Lu Jiao returned with hot water did he go back to acting like his nonchalant self.

Lu Jiao went to the bed and asked, “Do you want to unbutton your underclothes, or should I?”

She asked just in case he starts acting like she was harassing him again.

Xie Yunjin didn’t ask her to do it. He lifted his hand and started to unbutton his underclothes. The movements were simple yet he managed to make it flirtatious. On top of that, he also kept his gaze directly on Lu Jiao, appearing almost predatory.

Lu Jiao felt more and more like something was wrong.

Could it be that he was having a fever and his head was now dumb?

She placed her hand on Xie Yunjin’s forehead to check. He did not have a fever so why was he acting like a different person?

Lu Jiao couldn’t find an answer. She took a handkerchief and soaked it in the water. She then wrung it before she wiped Xie Yunjin down.

Though it was summer time, Xie Yunjin wasn’t sweaty since he wasn’t outside and exercising. Lu Jiao wiped him down simply and quickly.

Xie Yunjin’s expression, however, made her speechless.

She was just wiping him down yet he acted like he was enduring pain with much difficulty. It appeared that he was straining himself because of this one act.

Since he was born pretty, his strained face looked like a delicate flower being scrunched. And she was the devil who dared to hurt an innocent flower.
