215 Moving into the City Together

Lady Lin wanted to curse, but the look on Lu Jiao’s face was so intimidating that she didn’t dare.

Lady Tian ignored her and grabbed Lu Jiao to walk back to the oxcart. There, the Lu daughters-in-law had picked up the four little ones and praised them endlessly.

“Ah, who’s this good-looking fella? Let me see. Which family does this baby belong to?”

Each of the aunties carried two of the boys. Behind them, Lu Danian jealously stared and wondered if they could spare him one to carry.

The four little ones were truly good-looking, even more handsome than his Huzi.

Lady Tian asked Xie Yunjin, “Son-in-law, your legs have healed?”

Lady Tian smiled so widely her lips could barely close.

Only when she mentioned Xie Yunjin did the others realize he was here as well.

They discovered that his legs have healed. The villagers have heard rumors that Lady Tian’s son-in-law was a good-looking scholar. Today, they finally saw him for themselves. The rumors were true – this scholar looked like a painted portrait. His legs have also healed, which meant he could now take the exams to become a government official.

Now, many people started to flatter Lu Jiao. Lu Jiao was too lazy to talk to them.

Xie Yunjin was also too lazy to acknowledge the random villagers who were trying to b.u.t.ter him up. He was, however, very respectful toward Lady Tian.

“Thanks to you, my legs are mostly fine now.”

Lady Tian knew Xie Yunjin’s legs would be fine but to see it actually happen made her so happy. She couldn’t help but cry out of joy.

Lu Jiao finally stepped up and comforted her, “Mom, what’s the matter?”

Lady Tian wiped away her tears, “I’m too happy, way too happy. Come, let’s go home. I’m going to cook you all delicious food.”

The four little ones spoke up at the mention of food.

“Granny, my mommy caught a baby boar. We can eat pork today!”

“Yes, mommy said to save the bones so she can use them to make our toothbrushes.”

Lady Tian didn’t know what toothbrushes were. She was just so happy that her son-in-law could walk again and her daughter was now respected. All these things were great news!

“Come, come, let’s go home.”

The family headed back to the Lu family home. Behind them, the villagers all exclaimed over the Lu family’s good luck. Not only did they suddenly gain knowledge of tofu making, but they also got a son-in-law who will one day become an official. It would be better if they don’t wrong the Lu family going forward.

Though everyone’s always known about the Lu family’s scholar son-in-law, n.o.body took him seriously. They all heard that Lu Danian and the scholar son-in-law didn’t like Lu Jiao and that was why Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin never visited.

Today, not only did he visit, he appeared to treat Lu Jiao well. They wouldn’t dare to wrong the Lu family now.

Many people voluntarily greeted Lady Tian and the Lu family. Lady Tian suddenly felt proud and spoke more confidently.

Once the group got home, Lu Gui came out to greet them.

When Lu Gui saw the four little ones, he extended his arms and s.n.a.t.c.hed them from their aunts.

“Ahh, you’re here to visit your little uncle. Did you miss me?”

The First and Second Born exchanged glances then grinned in unison, “Yeah! We missed you so we came to see you!”

“Okay, okay, let’s go inside.”

Lu Gui went inside with the two children. Behind them, Lady Tian unhappily scolded, “Did you not see your sister and brother-in-law? You need to greet them properly!”

Lu Gui turned his head and called out, “Brother-in-law, sister.”

Xie Yunjin and Lu Gui nodded. The two of them then asked Xie Tieniu to come in with them. Xie Tieniu asked Lu Jiao, “Third aunt, do we need to carry all this stuff in?”

Inside the cart was a basket containing a baby boar, eggs, and vegetables.

Lu Jiao was about to go take the stuff when Lu Danian grabbed the baskets, “Let me, let me.”

Lu Danian carefully offered. Before, for five taels of silver, he blamed Lady Tian. In the end, not only did his daughter forgive him, she even taught the family how to make tofu for a living. He felt ashamed and he was worried that his daughter blamed him.

Lu Jiao wasn’t mad and thanked Lu Danian, “Thanks, dad.”

Lu Danian shook his head, “It’s okay. It’s not heavy.”

Thinking that it was already late and the family hadn’t even eaten, Lu Danian said to Lady Tian, “Hurry and make some food for our daughter and her family.”

Lady Tian quickly delegated the tasks to her daughters-in-law.

The first and second aunts went to cook in the kitchen.

Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin followed Lady Tian and Lu Danian to the living room. Once everyone sat down, Lady Tian made some sugar water for everyone.

Lu Jiao gave some to Xie Tieniu, who didn’t decline. After six hours of riding the ox, he was thirsty.

Lady Tian thanked Xie Tiniu, “Thank you.”

Xie Tieniu scratched his head, “There’s no need to thank me. Thanks to the third aunt, my village is far more prosperous today than before. Everyone’s lives are improving because of my third aunt.”

Lady Tian was proud to hear that, “It’s good that Lu Jiao is able to help out the village.”

Xie Tieniu wasn’t good at talking and could only laugh.

Lady Tian turned to Xie Yunjin, “Son-in-law, your legs are fully functional now?”

Xie Yunjin nodded, “Thanks to your kindness, I am doing fine now.”

He even stood up and respectfully bowed to Lady Tian. Lady Tian asked him to straighten up, “We are a family. Why are you being so polite? Sit down, sit down!”

Lady Tian glanced at her son, Lu Gui. Last time, Lu Gui told her that Xie Yunjin was not as courteous as he used to be and actually became very friendly.

Today, however, Lady Tian felt like he didn’t change from before at all.

Lu Gui found this strange as well and shot Xie Yunjin a few looks. He felt like his brother-in-law’s gone back to the way he was before. He acted all distant and not that friendly anymore.

Lu Gui frowned. Was he wrong to feel how he felt the last time he visited?

The family quickly returned to their happy conversations, “Once you get better, are you going to continue your studies in the city?”

Xie Yunjin nodded, “Yes, next year is the provincial exam. In a while, I’m going to be moving into the City of Xian to study.”

Lady Tian nodded immediately, “Of course. It’s no time to act complacent.”

Just then, Lady Tian turned to Lu Jiao, “Once my son-in-law goes back to studying, you can bring the four little ones and live with me. I’ll help you out with the kids.”

The four little ones looked at Lu Jiao. Before Lu Jiao could speak, Xie Yunjin spoke, “I plan on bringing them with me when I move into the city to study.”

Everyone inside the room opened their mouths, “You’re bringing them with you?!”
