116 Who’s more Shameless?

Lu Jiao taught everyone more than 10 medicinal herbs before she stopped. She was worried that the villagers wouldn’t be able to retain any more information.

Even with that in mind, near the end, people started to stare at her soundlessly.

The yard got quieter and quieter until Lu Jiao finally asked, “Did you memorize everything?”

From the crowd, someone whispered, “No.”

The others chimed in then, “There’s no way I can remember all that.”

“I was able to follow along for the first two. I already forgot the rest.”

Many people started to say different things. They were all insecure and wondered if they were too dumb. Yunjin’s wife explained it pretty well but how come they just could not memorize everything she said?

Lu Jiao was silent as she listened to everyone. It took her some time before she started to comfort, “There’s no rush with this. You’ve never seen this stuff before so it’s normal to find it difficult today.”

She cleared her throat, “Honestly, I did take this into consideration before and that’s why I harvested some samples for you. You guys take some back with you and get familiar.”

The crowd cheered, “Yunjin’s wife, you are great.”

“Yes, yes!”

Lu Jiao watched as the crowd got rowdy in order to take samples. She quickly raised her hand and stopped everyone, “Don’t get disorderly. Line up.”

She ended up going to the kitchen and taking out all the herbs she saved from her s.p.a.ce. She originally wanted to harvest some this morning but couldn’t because of Xie Yunjin. She’ll have to divide up what she had.

After Lu Jiao took out what she could, she asked Xie Xiaojun and Lin Chunyan to help her.

Xie Xiaojun and Lin Chunyan happily helped her take out the rest.

Lu Jiao didn’t give entire herbs to everyone. There were too many people and too few herbs. She divided up one plant into several pieces. Some people got only two to three leaves.

Since Xie Xiaojun and Lin Chunyan helped her carry those herbs, Lu Jiao let them have first picks.

“These are ginseng leaves and these are bupleurum leaves. Slowly, you’ll be able to recognize them. Remember, when you go into the mountains, watch out for snakes. Don’t go in too deep and stay on the outskirts, where there are fewer snakes. Even then, be careful.

Also, go into the pharmacy in town and get some snake poison antidotes. Something like a horse chestnut can protect you against snakes. Of course, the pharmacist will give you the correct recommendations. Bring those medicines with you for emergencies. If you get bitten, rub it onto your wound to detox.”

“Understood, Yunjin’s wife.”

“We will buy some when we are in town.”

Everyone laughed and chatted as they left. The Xie Village may have always been rather peaceful, but it’s never been this harmonious.

Xie Xiaojun and Lin Chunyan were the last to leave. Since it was late, they decided to stay and help Lu Jiao make lunch.

“Third aunt, we’ll stay and help you with lunch.”

Lu Jiao was about to speak when a shrill voice arose from outside, “Lu Jiao, you wicked wrench. I invited Xiaotao here to help you and you decided to kick her out just because she fed my son a spoonful of porridge?”

Enraged, Lady Ruan pulled Zhou Xiaotao towards the yard.

Many of the villagers haven’t left. When they heard what Lady Ruan had to say, they stopped and looked back.

Lady Ruan’s eyes darkened as she pinched Zhou Xiaotao’s hand.

“Aunty, I simply noticed that my cousin was hungry and that was why I fed him. I had no other intentions. Don’t kick me out.”

Zhou Xiaotao cried so sadly as if she had been ma.s.sively wronged.

Aunt Guihua was the first to speak up, ” Lady Ruan, you’re telling me that you are so kind you sent someone here to help out? How come I find that difficult to believe?”

Lady Ruan glared at her upon hearing aunt Guihua’s words.

This woman once pinned her to the ground and beat her up. Back when her son still listened to her, that woman kissed her @ss every chance she got. Now that her third son no longer showed interest, that woman grew the guts to hit her.

Lady Ruan was puking blood on the inside as she once again got more determined to force Lu Jiao out of this family. It was all because of this woman that her son was now evil. Before, her third son was a great human being.

Lady Ruan bore her gaze into aunt Guihua, “Ding Guihua, you’re a b.!.t.c.h! You used to suck up to me all the time. Now that you find Lu Jiao useful, you go kiss her @ss. How can someone be so shameless?”

Aunt Guihua wasn’t at all angry to hear that, “I do what I want. Why do you care who I suck up to? Also, when it comes to shamelessness, why not ask around this place and see which one of us is more shameless?”

The crowd started to mutter and they all talked poorly of Lady Ruan.

Lady Ruan’s face twisted into a twine. She wanted to go up there and bite Aunt Guihua to death. Sadly, she was so small and thin that she was no opponent against aunt Guihua. All she could do was give her the death stare.

Behind the crowd, Chen Liu noticed that her mother-in-law was losing. She squeezed inside and stood by Lady Ruan.

“Mom, did you forget what you came here for? Why are you fighting against Lady Guihua?”

Lady Ruan snapped back to reality and angrily said to Lu Jiao, “Lu Jiao, you are an unfilial and ungraceful woman. Because Xiaotao fed Yunjin porridge, you kicked her out. You must apologize to Xiaotao.”

Zhou Xiaotao straightened her back and waited for an apology. Occasionally, she remembered to blink out some tears.

In the garden, Lu Jiao laughed. She looked at Lady Ruan, “Mom, is your eyesight worsening?”

Lady Ruan froze and she did not fully understand Lu Jiao’s words.

Zhou Xiao was worried when she heard that. Fear rose inside her.

What Xie Yunjin said to her before echoed in her mind.

Subconsciously, Zhou Xiaotao grabbed onto Lady Ruan and suggested nervously, “Fourth aunt, let’s go back. Let’s go.”

Lady Ruan was determined to ruin Lu Jiao’s reputation tonight. This woman was getting more and more loveable each day and if she didn’t take action soon, her son would refuse to leave her.

Lady Ruan ignored Zhou Xiaotao. Lu Jiao did the same. She continued to speak to Lady Ruan, “Mom, don’t you know that your son has a very specific taste? How can someone like her feed him porridge? He wanted to puke at the sight of her, let alone eat porridge.”

Lady Ruan didn’t even get a chance to speak when the four little ones ran outside towards her and started to chirp.

“My daddy said she’s ugly and she’s not allowed to go into his room.”

“She wanted to feed daddy porridge, my daddy wanted her to go away.”

“She wants to be my daddy’s concubine and wants to have his babies.”

“My daddy would never have babies with her. Look at how ugly she is! Her children would be hideous.”
