233 Don’t Dare to Stare

Cla.s.smate Han smiled and said, “Lady Lu, see, Yunjin’s agreed. Let’s make a deal based on the price I suggested.”

Lu Jiao didn’t want to. If she accepted the house at that price, it was obvious Xie Yunjin would owe him a favor. Then she would owe Xie Yunjin a favor. She didn’t want to owe anyone anything.

Lu Jiao then said to Cla.s.smate Han, “I’m not going to take it at that price. How about 1,200?”

Cla.s.smate Han looked at Lu Jiao in surprise. He then glanced at Xie Yunjin.

Xie Yunjin stared at Lu Jiao with a profound look. Cla.s.smate Han may not have gotten the message, but Xie Yunjin did. Lu Jiao didn’t want to owe him anything. She was determined to separate all her affairs from his.

Xie Yunjin’s heart dropped to the bottom as he looked at the silent Lu Jiao. Only after some time, did he turn back to Cla.s.smate Han, “We’ll make the deal based on the price Lu Jiao said.”

Only now did Cla.s.smate Han realize how weird this all was. He looked at both of them and decided they were acting strange.

Since Xie Yunjin had spoken, Cla.s.smate Han didn’t persist, “Okay, then we’ll do it as you said. When are you free to go to the magistrate’s office with me to get the t.i.tle change?”

Cla.s.smate Han thought the house would be under Xie Yunjin’s name. However, Xie Yunjin pointed at Lu Jiao, “We’ll put the house under Lu Jiao’s name.”

Cla.s.smate Han became more and more surprised while Lu Jiao smiled, “Once we move into the city, we can get the t.i.tle changed. I’ll pay you then.”

Lu Jiao then left Xie Yunjin behind her as he sadly watched her go.

Cla.s.smate Han whispered, “Yunjin, what’s wrong with you two? Why am I finding the atmosphere odd? Did you fight?”

Cla.s.smate Han felt like he guessed it right and advised, “Yunjin, you have to coax women. You shouldn’t always act so proper and mighty. That would only drive women further away. Women are born to be doted on and coaxed. You have to learn.”

Cla.s.smate Han thought of his wife back at home and his mood dampened. His wife spends all day playing with makeup or going shopping with their daughter while leaving their son behind. Cla.s.smate Han coaxes his wife a lot yet she still doesn’t want to stay home.

If she had a wife like Lu Jiao, he would be happy to just hold her in the palm of his hand. What a great woman! Yunjin shouldn’t do anything stupid.

Cla.s.smate Han continued, “Yunjin, Lady Lu is a rare woman who’s near perfect. She knows how to make money, knows how to cook, knows how to educate children, and most importantly, she’s good-looking.

Truly, if you marry other women, you would know. Every woman has some kind of bad habit but Lady Lu doesn’t. You have to coax her and make her stay. Or else you’ll regret it.”

Xie Yunjin’s mood got worse and worse as Cla.s.smate Han talked. He had given her the divorce letter already and they’d agreed to separate. Regret was useless.

Even if he didn’t sign the divorce letter, that woman didn’t want to stay.

Xie Yunjin’s handsome face clouded over and the air around him grew depressed.

Cla.s.smate Han thought he wasn’t listening and tried harder, “You should treasure the people you have. If you don’t, you’ll regret it later on.”

Xie Yunjin’s courtyards took 10 days to construct. The s.p.a.ce was divided into east and west. Xie Yunjin’s family took the east side and Xie Erzhu’s family took the west side.

At first, the villagers didn’t understand why Xie Yunjin insisted on making two courtyards with a hanging flower gate door in between. He could’ve easily constructed a large yard for himself.

Only after everything was done and settled, did the villagers realize that Xie Yunjin constructed two courtyards so Xie Erzhu could have one.

The smart ones also guessed that Xie Yunjin rebuilt his home for Xie Erzhu. Or else there was no reason for him to rush into building his home. By now, everyone found out that Xie Yunjin and his whole family were moving to the city of Qinghe county this time.

So, it was obvious that he did this for Xie Erzhu.

Not only did people compliment Xie Yunjin on his conscience, but many people also told Xie Erzhu that he was repaid with good karma.

Xie Erzhu was no longer as dull and quiet as before. He was now much more lively and he even walked while smiling.

He had a house now and money. He was now a real man. All this was thanks to his third brother.

Xie Erzhu was determined to treat his third brother’s family well. More importantly, he was determined to listen to his third brother and sister-in-law. They were both such intelligent people.

“Uncle Erzhu, your good-heartedness has been repaid.”

“Yes, bad people were punished.”

Because of all this, the Xie Village became happier and friendlier.

Since the new house had been built, it was tradition to host a lunch in the new place. This morning, Lu Jiao asked Lu Gui to go into town to buy half a pig, two dozen fish, and several chickens and ducks.

The Xie family’s housewarming lunch ended up being eight dishes that all contained meat and were big portions.

Not only was the food good, but Lu Jiao also found several jugs of alcohol. The housewarming lunch felt like New Year’s.

The Village Leader paid respect to Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao, “The only reason the Xie Village got where it has is because of Yunjin and Yunjin’s wife. I want to thank you on behalf of the whole village.”

The Village Leader finished his alcohol. Since Xie Yunjin was still hurt and shouldn’t drink, he drank what Lu Jiao called ‘juice’ instead.

Lu Jiao had alcohol in her cup, but she only took a sip before Xie Yunjin stopped her.

“Don’t drink too much. It’s harmful to your body.”

The people at the table started to tease, “Yunjin’s wife, don’t drink. Yunjin’s heart hurts when you drink.”

The Village Leader also smiled, “Yeah, yeah.”

Lu Jiao was calm and acted as usual. Xie Yunjin however, found his ears redden as he listened to the villagers. Everything felt awkward yet a sweetness arose from his heart.

Xie Yunjin glanced at Lu Jiao. Because she had something to drink, her cheeks were now dyed red, making her appear even more alluring.

Xie Yunjin’s heart thumped hard as he looked at her. However, he didn’t dare to look any longer and s.h.i.+fted his gaze.

Not far away, the four little ones sat with the Lu family.

Lu Gui had gone back home and told the Lu family about the new house. Without hesitation, the Lu family paused their tofu business and the whole family came to help.

They also helped cook this housewarming lunch.

The four little ones sat with the Lu family so Lady Tian and Lu Gui could take care of the four little ones.

The four little ones saw how their mommy and daddy were both blus.h.i.+ng. They felt so happy about it and were all giggling behind their hands.

Lady Tian saw the same scene and also couldn’t help but laugh.

The more she looked at her daughter and her son-in-law, the less it appeared they were divorcing. Based on the way her son-in-law’s been acting, he liked her daughter.
