Chapter 103 - 103 Mommy is Good Now

103 Mommy is Good Now

Lu Jiao was startled. Not only was there a wild chicken, and a wild rabbit, but there was also a snake as thick as a child’s arm.

Though the snake was dead, Lu Jiao was still a little shaken up. It wasn’t that she was afraid of snakes, it was that boneless animals like this gave her a certain amount of anxiety.

Lu Jiao didn’t even want the other animals anymore. She said to Lu Gui, “Go get the wild chicken and the wild rabbit. I don’t want the snake.”

The chicken and the rabbit were still alive, Lady Tian could keep it that way for a few days.

Lu Gui disagreed, “This snake isn’t poisonous. It’s over a meter long. Once we skin it, we’ll have a lot of meat.”

Lu Gui’s eyes lit up. He was excited despite eating lots of meat at Lu Jiao’s place these past few days.

If this was before his visit, he might’ve taken a bite of snake meat right there and then.

Lu Jiao peeked at the snake to confirm that the snake was truly non-toxic.

She warned Lu Gui, “Then take it and chop it into pieces.”

That way, she won’t feel grossed out when she sees it.

Lu Gui went to fetch the animals. Scared that Lu Jiao was uncomfortable with the dead snake, he took it aside to skin it. Then, he used his ax and chopped it into segments.

After this was all done, the siblings walked home with their baskets full.

The four little ones were up at this point. The moment Lu Jiao returned, the First Born ran over and grabbed her hand, “Mommy, go look at daddy, his legs hurt.”

Lu Jiao asked the First Born to let go of her hand. She put down her basket and headed to the east bedroom with the First Born.

Inside, Xie Yunjin looked rather pale. Yesterday, Lu Jiao fed him a painkiller, but the effect subsided in the middle of the night.

In the middle of the night, Xie Yunjin felt pain shoot up his legs. Afraid to disturb the kids, he endured.

This morning, the observant First Born noticed it. He was insanely anxious and waited for Lu Jiao to come back.”

“How is it? Are you in a lot of pain?”

Xie Yunjin was scared that Lu Jiao would push for painkillers and shook his head, “The pain isn’t bad.”

The First Born refuted, “He’s in a lot of pain. I saw.”

Lu Jiao stared at Xie Yunjin and asked calmly, “Is the pain bad?”

Due to the pain, Xie Yunjin’s face formed a layer of sweat. However, he continued to admit it.

“It hurts a little. I can endure it.”

Lu Jiao knew very well that he was hurting and he refused to admit it because he didn’t want more painkillers.

Honestly, taking painkillers was fine. It was just that this guy was so worried about everything.

Lu Jiao didn’t force him to take anything. She did know, however, that Xie Yunjin was likely more sensitive to pain.

“Okay, if you can endure it, you don’t need to take painkillers. I’ll need to give you some anti-inflammatory medicine though.”

Lu Jiao wanted to give Xie Yunjin IV but didn’t want him to know.

So she planned to give him some anti-anxiety medicine and wait until he fell asleep. Then, she can hang some IV fluid for him.

Xie Yunjin was on guard as he gaped at her, “Are you going to feed me a painkiller instead? I’m not taking it.”

Lu Jiao was speechless and responded unpleasantly, “You think having surgery is the end of it? Your legs were cut open and sewed back together. If you don’t take the right medicine, you’ll be in trouble once you get an infection.”

Xie Yunjin thought that made sense but he still cautiously looked at Lu Jiao, “I will take anti-inflammatory meds. I will not take any painkillers.”

“Okay, okay, I got it.”

Just then, the First Born turned to Lu Jiao, “Mommy, daddy’s legs hurt.”

He was only a four-year-old boy but his worried mannerism was more like a father’s.

“Your dad isn’t in as much pain as yesterday. He’ll feel better after the anti-inflammatory medicine. It hurts right now because he just had the surgery. He’ll feel better with every new day.”

The First Born’s heart ached so much that his little brows were almost vertical. He said to Lu Jiao, “Mommy, give daddy candy.”

Lu Jiao didn’t decline. She took a piece of candy and gave it to the First Born, “Give it to your daddy, I’ll go get him some water.”

The First Born took it as asked and took off the wrapping paper so he could feed Xie Yunjin.

Once Lu Jiao left, Xie Yunjin finally realized something. The First Born had referred to Lu Jiao as “mom”.

He was stunned.

He thought that little guy would need a long time before he admitted Lu Jiao as his mother. After all, he was much more sensitive and careful than the other three.

Who knew he would be calling Lu Jiao “mom” already?

The First Born didn’t know what Xie Yunjin was thinking as he unwrapped the candy.

Xie Yunjin knew that if he refused, the little guy would be worried. He took the candy.

The First Born smiled. The other three, who sat on the bed, saw the First Born smile and saw their daddy eat candy, and so they too, started to giggle.

Xie Yunjin whispered to the First Born, “You called her ‘mom’?”

The First Born’s face turned red as he felt embarra.s.sed by the question. After playing with his hands for a long time, he finally answered in a low voice, “I think mommy is good now.”

Xie Yunjin patted the First Born’s head. It appeared that the First Born’s heart had opened and accepted Lu Jiao. That was great.

“You’re doing the right thing. Your mommy has changed and improved. From now on, she’s going to be a good mom. Forget everything that’s happened in the past. After all, everyone makes mistakes.”

The First Born remembered the time he tried to poison his mom. Ah, yes, he did that once. His mom didn’t even hold that against him. From now on, he will stop referring to her as an evil woman.

The First Born raised his head and beamed.

Xie Yunjin’s heart filled with warmth. The pain around his legs somehow soothed.

The quadruplets all crowded around him.

“Daddy, are your legs feeling better?”

“The candy made the pain go away?”

“Yeah.”

Xie Yunjin found them funny but humored them, “Yeah, I’m not hurting at all now.”

The First Born immediately offered, “When it hurts, ask mommy to give you candy.”

“Okay.”

The four little ones were finally happy again.

Lu Jiao fetched some water and came in with the medicine. She scanned the room and found the worried four little ones all cheered up.

“Here, have some medicine.”

Lu Jiao gave the anti-anxiety pill to Xie Yunjin, who carefully studied it to see whether or not it was different from yesterday’s pill.

This pill was different from all the pills he’s seen. It was white, round, and flat. Xie Yunjin had never seen medicine like this before. He couldn’t help but comment, “I’ve never seen anything like this.”
