First Assistant’s Petite Wife Has Space

Chapter 96 - 96 Leg Pain



96 Leg Pain

Lady Ruan was obviously angered and started to curse, “Ding Guihua, you b!tch! This is my family matter. Even if I do kick him out of my home, I still gave birth to him and he is still my son! Once he becomes an honorable official, he will need me there. When that happens, you’ll be the one on the sideline all jealous.”

Lady Ruan got so heated she stood up inside the oxcart. Lu Jiao was terrified that she would stumble and land on Xie Yunjin, causing his legs to dislocate again.

She asked Xie Tieniu, “Stop for a second.”

Xie Yieniu stopped. Without looking at Lady Ruan, Lu Jiao turned to Xie Laogen, “Dad, take mother and get out.”

Xie Laogen extended a hand to help Lady Ruan, who pushed him away and pointed at Lu Jiao to curse.

“You b!tch! You think just because you took care of my son, you get to be god?! You want to act mightier than me?! In your dreams!”

Lu Jiao was infuriated, “You don’t deserve to be a mother! Your son just had surgery and his legs cannot be touched, yet you act like this, almost falling onto him. If his legs get hurt again, the surgery would’ve been pointless.”

Lu Jiao turned to Xie Laogen and said coldly, “Dad, you are going to let her hurt Yunjin?”

Though Xie Laogen was unhappy, Xie Yunjin was his son. It was beneficial for him if Yunjin healed.

He instantly got off the cart and pulled Lady Ruan out with him.

Lady Ruan struggled and wanted to curse more but Lu Jiao asked Xie Tieniu to leave.

Lady Ruan stomped in place but nobody acknowledged her. Behind her, Aunt Guihua couldn’t bear to watch and lectured her, “Lady Ruan, you don’t deserve to be Yunjin’s mother. He’s the most unfortunate person to get you as his mother.”

Everyone agreed with that statement.

It was true. Yunjin was so unlucky to get a mother like her.

Once he becomes successful, this mother of his will cause him so much trouble.

Lady Ruan didn’t self-reflect at all and only got more mad. She leaped over and started to fight Aunt Guihua. Since Aunt Guihua was taller and fatter, she ended up throwing Lady Ruan into the ground and beating her up.

While Xie Laogen was on the side, trying to stop the fight, he didn’t actually do much. He was honestly pretty angry himself and wanted to borrow Ding Guihua’s hands to teach his old wife a lesson.

The villagers all watched and asked them to stop. Nobody, however, interfered with the effort.

In the end, Lady Ruan moaned in pain. Ding Guihua didn’t actually hit Lady Ruan too hard. No matter how awful she was, that woman was Yunjin’s mother after all.

If she hit that woman too hard, Yunjin might get mad. So Ding Guihua decided to simply teach Lady Ruan a lesson.

Lu Jiao wasn’t aware of what happened. She and Lu Gui rode back home inside the oxcart.

In front of the yard, stood the four little ones. When they saw the arrival of an oxcart, they dashed outside in a hurry.

Behind them, Lady Tian nervously called out, “Run slowly! Don’t fall!”

The children didn’t seem to have heard her.

Afraid to hit the children, Xie Tieniu slowed down the cart. Lu Jiao got out of the cart and went to her children.

The four little ones nervously peered up towards Lu Jiao.

“Mommy, is daddy better?”

Lu Jiao smiled, “He had surgery. It was a success. He’ll need some time to heal before he fully recovers. Then, he’ll be able to walk again and go back to studying.”

The four little ones were over the moon and all grinned ear to ear.

The First Born noticed that Xie Yunjin wasn’t moving inside the cart and wasn’t reacting at all. He was anxious and asked, “Mommy, why isn’t daddy awake?”

Lu Jiao stared at him. This kid decided to call her ‘mommy’ now? Her beam deepened.

“It’s due to the surgery. He had to take medicine for the surgery. He should be awake by nighttime. Don’t worry too much.”

The First Born stopped worrying and nodded, “Okay, I got it.”

The oxcart arrived in front of the yard. Lu Jiao indicated for Lu Gui to carry Yunjin inside while stabilizing Yunjin’s legs to ensure nothing touched them.

Behind them, Xie Tieniu steered the ox to leave. Lu Jiao shouted out, “Tieniu, thank you!”

Xie Tieniu shook his head, “No need to thank me. Take care of Yunjin.”

Lu Jiao didn’t bring up payment. Even if she did, Xie Tieniu wouldn’t have taken it. She’ll simply remember this favor she owed him.

Lu Jiao and Lu Gui put Xie Yunjin into the east bedroom and she carefully placed a cover on him.

Just then, Lady Tian noticed how pale Lu Jiao was and asked caringly, “Jiaojiao, your face is pale. What’s wrong?”

Lu Jiao shook her head, “Nothing. I was just worried.”

Lady Tian went to get a cup of sugar water for Lu Jiao. Then, she started to ask about Xie Yunjin’s surgery.

“Are his legs really fine?”

“Yes, the surgery was a success. He just needs to relax and rest to make sure his bones heal. At most, it’ll take two months before he can walk again and three months before he’s fully back to normal.”

Lady Tian was ecstatic, “This is great news! The Gods have eyes, the Gods have eyes!”

The four little ones excitedly hugged each other, “Daddy will be fine now!”

“He’ll be able to play with us again!”

“He’ll be able to study again. Daddy loves studying!”

“Once he becomes a government official, he’ll bring us to the Capital City. I heard that place is rowdy.”

The room was full of joy.

When Xie Yunjin started to wake at night, he first heard everyone’s caring inquiries before he got to open his eyes.

“Why isn’t Yunjin awake yet?”

“Is he okay?”

“Don’t worry.”

Xie Yunjin heard Lu Jiao’s well-rounded voice and slowly opened his eyes. He saw the woman by his bedside warmly greeting the clan members inside the room and noticed how confidence oozed out of her. She had the same familiar face yet she was not the same person at all.

He once imagined what kind of woman he wanted as a wife. He didn’t ask her to be pretty, he did ask her to be confident and collected. He asked for someone who could support him and help him go through difficult times. If one day, they get to acquire wealth, then they could share it together.

As Xie Yunjin got lost in his thoughts, the four little ones noticed that he had awakened and excitedly shouted, “Daddy is awake!”

Xie Yunjin’s thoughts were interrupted. Lu Jiao turned her head around as everyone walked up to the bed.

Lu Jiao was the first to speak, “How is it? Do your legs hurt? Can you endure it?”

Before, she had used an anesthetic on him so he couldn’t feel pain. Now that the medicine had worn off, he should feel the agony.

Sadly, she didn’t own anything to numb him fully in her space. If he ever gets into too much pain, she will have to feed him a painkiller by the pill. But it would be best if he didn’t take any. After all, too much painkiller wasn’t good for the body.
