203 Daddy, Appease Mommy
Lu Jiao didn’t want to discuss this anymore. She turned around to eat breakfast.
When she reached the door, she found the four little ones in a line by the door.
Their little faces were pale as they gawked at her in shock.
Lu Jiao’s head ached. She forgot to check for the children.
The four little ones shot towards Lu Jiao and started to cry loudly, “Mommy, don’t leave. We will be good children and listen to you well. Can you please not leave us?”
The four little ones’ cries were heart-wrenching.
After all, Lu Jiao’s parented them for a long time now and they’ve built a relationship.
She felt sad seeing them cry.
“Okay, stop crying.”
The Fourth Born wrapped his arms around Lu Jiao and wailed, “I’m not going to let you leave.”
Lu Jiao didn’t plan on letting the four children find out about this so soon. She wanted to find some opportunities to mentally prepare them and have them accept her separation from Xie Yunjin.
She didn’t plan for the four little ones to hear this accidentally.
Lu Jiao glanced at the children and warmly comforted, “We’ve talked about this before and agreed. You heard it right? I agreed to find a doctor for your dad and he agreed that once he healed, we would divorce. We agreed on that a while ago.”
The four little ones kept on shaking their heads and refusing to listen.
Lu Jiao had no choice but to soothe them, “Stop crying. I haven’t left, right?”
She then turned to Xie Yunjin, “How about you let me raise the four little ones?”
Xie Yunjin frowned at her gloomily and commented, “So, I’m the extra one?”
What did he do to her for her to dislike him so much?
Xie Yunjin’s face was unspeakably cold as he sneered at her.
Lu Jiao made a face then went back to soothing the children, “Ah, don’t cry. I’m discussing this with your father.”
The Fourth Born continued to hog onto her neck and he was now out of breath from crying, “Mommy, can you please not leave?”
Though the children were little, they were extremely intelligent. Their mommy was so nice right now. If she left, their daddy would marry someone else and who knows how evil their stepmother would be?
They’ve also heard that fathers change once they marry someone new. Who knew what their father would turn into once he marries someone new?
The more the children thought about it, the louder they cried.
Lu Jiao’s heart and head both ached. However, she couldn’t stay with Xie Yunjin just for the children.
Not only was she not the original host, but she also had very different values from Xie Yunjin. Plus, in the book, Xie Yunjin ends up with a wife once he moves into the Capital City. Who knows if he would end up meeting that woman and fall in love with her at first sight? He might divorce Lu Jiao then. Worse, he might kill her.
Lu Jiao continued to comfort the children as she thought about it.
The four little ones noticed that no matter how hard they cried, their mother refused to change her mind.
Now flustered, the First Born shouted at Xie Yunjin, “Daddy, hurry and appease mommy. Don’t let her leave!”
Xie Yunjin recognized something then. Lately, he kept on thinking that Lu Jiao did certain things because she liked him. It now looked like he was overthinking it.

He felt extremely embarrassed now and his face turned as red as a boiled shrimp. There was no way he was going to do what the children were asking of him.
His lips were pursed together tightly as his entire body screamed for him to get away.
The First Born noticed that he was ignored and turned back to Lu Jiao, “Mommy, don’t leave. When I grow up, I will be filial. I will get you a title and make sure everyone else is jealous of you. I will marry someone nice in the future and we will be filial towards you together. I will have sons of my own who will also obey you.”
He promised all he could.
The Second Born’s eyes were swollen red as he pulled on Lu Jiao’s sleeve, “Mommy, once I become a general, I will protect you and make sure nobody hurts you. I will beat up anyone who hurts you. I want everyone to know that my mother has a general for a son.”
The Third Born choked and hiccuped, “Mommy, I still need to learn medicine from you. I want to treat the sick like you do. I want everyone to know how amazing my mommy is. Not only can my mom treat patients, but she can also help raise a very capable son.”
The Fourth Born was crying so hard he could no longer speak. All his worst fears were becoming true. His mommy was leaving and they will have a stepmother in the future. He didn’t want that.
“Mommy, don’t leave. I’m going to make a lot of money. I will buy you silver earrings, silver bracelets, and new clothes. Ah, I will buy you helpers who can help you around the house so you don’t need to do anything. Are you leaving because you’re tired of doing housework?”
Lu Jiao felt a lot of pain as she listened to the children. She knelt down and hugged them, “Stop crying. I will discuss this with your dad.”
She then asked, “Are you hungry? Let’s go eat. I prepared a lot of good food.”
Sadly, the four little ones shook their heads in unison and looked at her with their crying faces, “Mommy, we are not hungry. We don’t want to eat.”
Lu Jiao’s heart hurt and her head ached. She peered at Xie Yunjin and suggested again, “Xie Yunjin, what if you give me the four children to raise? I promise…”
All Xie Yunjin could hear was how Lu Jiao only talked about the four little ones. He remembered his childhood and how his parents hated him and essentially abandoned him. Today, this woman was abandoning him too.
So much negativity arose in Xie Yunjin’s heart. His gaze was now ice cold, “No.”
He then headed towards the bed to rest.
Lu Jiao was left comforting the children, “Let’s go eat. Today, we won’t study and I’ll take you into the mountains to hunt.”
The four little ones continued to stare with sad puppy eyes.
The First Born opened his lips, “Mommy, I’m in a bad mood and I cannot stomach any food.”
His mommy was still not promising that she’d stay. This meant she didn’t want to. He was so sad and started to wonder if she didn’t want to stay because of all the wrongdoings he did in the past.
Devastated, the First Born ran to the west bedroom. The other three followed while crying.
The four little ones crawled onto the bed and continued to wail.
Lu Jiao felt like she was being torn into two. Half of her wanted to convince herself to stay. Even if she didn’t mix with Xie Yunjin, they could still coexist peacefully and she could take care of the four little ones.
The other half of her told her not to do that. She had her own life and her life should consist of more than the four little ones.
With her feet heavy, Lu Jiao headed to the west bedroom in order to soothe the children more.
Just then, some visitors arrived.
Lu Jiao looked outside and saw that it was the Second Grandma and Lady Zhao and they were accompanied by some villagers.
Lu Jiao didn’t want people to hear about her private matters so she stepped out to greet them.
“Second Grandma, Lady Zhao, why are you here?”
The Second Grandma asked Lu Jiao caringly, “I heard the four little ones cry. It sounds like they’re really sad. Did something happen?”
Lady Zhao nodded as well and everyone gawked at Lu Jiao for an answer.
