131 Vile and Unvirtuous
Lu Jiao’s heart fluttered as she looked back at Xie Yunjin. She didn’t overthink it as she knew that handsome people could get their way with others easier. She understood that.
“Okay, eat your lunch. I will go eat outside.”
She walked out while Xie Yunjin smiled and watched her leave.
Sadly, before she got to eat, she saw three people enter her gate.
It was her mother-in-law, Lady Ruan, her eldest sister-in-law, Lady Chen, and a young beautiful girl beside them.
The girl was rather curvy with very charming features. Her eyes slightly curved up, making her look foxy and seductive.
The girl saw Lu Jiao and showed her much disdain. It seemed like she didn’t think highly of Lu Jiao.
Speechless, Lu Jiao wondered who that woman was. How could she go into other people’s homes and act so arrogantly?
Lu Jiao quickly realized something. Last time, she kicked out Zhou Xiaotao by saying Zhou Xiaotao was too ugly for Xie Yunjin. So this time, Lady Ruan found a beautiful lady to bring with her.
Lady Ruan appeared determined to get rid of her so some other woman could get the wife title.
Lu Jiao was unspeakably annoyed. She wanted them to leave! Can’t they just wait two to three months? In two to three months, she will voluntarily give up her spot.
boxn ovel. c0mWith an unkind expression, Lu Jiao glanced at Lady Ruan and Lady Chen. Lady Chen smirked, “Third sister-in-law, who do you think you’re looking at? Why such a long face?”
She then ignored Lu Jiao and entered the east bedroom with Lady Ruan.
The four little ones were busy eating when they saw Lady Ruan and the woman beside her. They thought of Zhou Xiaotao and quickly slid down their chairs and ran to the east bedroom.
Inside the east bedroom, Lady Ruan did her best to look motherly. Sadly, she had a thin and mean face and her best effort at looking kind made her appear comical. She had no self-awareness and said to Xie Yunjin, “My son, I didn’t think it through last time and got that ugly Zhou Xiaotao to take care of you. I forgot how you like beautiful women. This time, I invited your first sister-in-law’s cousin’s niece to come and take care of you.”
The air around Xie Yunjin was heavy.
Lady Chen’s cousin’s niece, Chen Chunxi, walked forward, “It’s nice to meet you, Third Brother Xie.”
Before Xie Yunjin could answer, the four little ones started to scream.
“Are you trying to be my daddy’s concubine?”
“My daddy said he doesn’t want a second wife. He won’t be having children with a concubine.”
“Leave, right now! Or else I will curse you!”
“You’re so ugly. My daddy would never fall for you.”
The four little ones’ attack changed Lady Ruan’s expression. Unable to maintain her motherly expression, she pointed a finger at the four little ones, “You four bastards, watch your mouths! Who taught you to speak like this?! Your mother?!”
She then immediately turned to Xie Yunjin, “My son, look at how that woman’s been teaching your sons. It’s better if that woman stops educating your children. I’m going to bring your kids back to my place to teach them how to behave.”
The four little ones started to cry at her offer. They were terrified to go back with Lady Ruan. At once, the four little ones ran onto Xie Yunjin’s bed.
Lu Jiao’s heart ached as the four little ones cried. She leaped to the bed and stared down at Lady Ruan, “Mother, enough already. Why are you so impatient to bring women to Xie Yunjin’s bed? His legs aren’t even healed.”
The three women’s faces dropped.
Lady Ruan and Chen Liu didn’t expect Lu Jiao to speak so bluntly.
Lady Ruan was the first to shout, “Lu Jiao, what are you inferring? You are very busy and I’m simply bringing you someone to help you take care of my son.”
Lu Jiao rudely asked, “Take care of him in bed?”
This time, Chen Chunxi cried out of anger. She was an unmarried woman who was spoiled back at home. She only agreed to this whole thing because her aunt told her all the benefits of marrying Xie Yunjin. If that wasn’t true, she wouldn’t be willing to marry someone divorced with four children.
Her aunt told her that Xie Yunjin was going to be a government official and she’ll get to be the wife of an official.
This was why she came. Who knew she’d be called a concubine the moment she arrived?
She wasn’t willing to be a concubine.
Xie Chunxi croaked toward Lu Jiao, “Don’t talk like that. I’m not willing to be a concubine.”
Lu Jiao laughed, “You don’t want to be a concubine, then you are really here to take care of him for me?” She then turned to Lady Ruan, “You really brought me someone to help me out?”
Lady Ruan nodded, “That’s right. Don’t speak so grossly every day. Look how you are teaching the kids!”
Lu Jiao ignored her and turned to Chen Chunxi, “Did you hear my mother-in-law? You’re here to help me out. Then I have to make the rules clear upfront. You can stay here, but you cannot enter the east bedroom or get near Xie Yunjin. He doesn’t need your help. He has a wife who takes care of him.
You’re an unmarried woman. If you go near him, there’ll be rumors. People will wonder if Xie Yunjin had accepted you as a concubine. You can stay here and help me clean the yard, get water, collect wood from the forest, chop firewood, feed the sheep…”
The Second Born interrupted, “Also feed the dogs for us and clean the dog’s bed.”
Chen Chunxi’s face changed color. She snapped her head around towards Lady Chen.
When she agreed to this, they didn’t say she’d need to do housework. They only said she’ll need to take care of Xie Yunjin until they get emotionally involved. Now, she was told she couldn’t even go near Xie Yunjin. What was the point of this then?
Lady Chen looked to Lady Ruan, “Mother.”
Lady Ruan glared at Lu Jiao, “Why would you tell this young lady to do all this? How’s that appropriate?”
Lu Jiao’s face dropped as she fought back coldly, “You said you brought her to help me out. If she doesn’t help me out, why would she come to my house? You want me to take care of her? What kind of wild delirious dream is she dreaming of?”
Lady Ruan’s eyes shot out fire but the look on Lu Jiao’s face scared her.
Lady Ruan asked Xie Yunjin, “My son, are you not going to control your wife? I brought you someone to take care of you yet she treats her this poorly. This means she’s jealous and controlling. What will happen when you pass your imperial exam and want a concubine? This woman will stop you! What’s the point of keeping such a vile and unvirtuous woman? Women need to be virtuous.”
The four little ones formed a wall before Lu Jiao. The First Born angrily yelled, “We won’t let our mom go! My dad would never get a concubine! You need to leave!”
Lady Ruan’s face darkened. She gritted her teeth as she controlled her urge to hit the four little ones.
