Translator: CokeZero Editor: RainystarsLu Jiao thought about Lady Cao from the Cao family. The appearance of this woman was undoubtedly the result of Zhang Biyan’s manipulation. She had likely used Lady Cao to seduce Xie Yunjin and then planned for Xie Yunjin to break up with Lu Jiao.
Zhang Biyan probably believed this was the best revenge against her. Perhaps, after Xie Yunjin broke up with her, she would come to gloat in front of Lu Jiao.
Thinking about this, Lu Jiao’s face turned cold. This woman was truly detestable. Sooner or later, she would pay her back.
The next morning, before Lu Jiao woke up, she smelled a strong fragrance of osmanthus. She couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
So fragrant.
She suddenly opened her eyes and saw Xie Yunjin squatting by her bed, holding a large bunch of osmanthus. He was carefully trying to place the osmanthus near her pillow. Unexpectedly, Lu Jiao woke up.
Xie Yunjin guiltily asked, “Did I disturb you with this?”
Lu Jiao smiled and shook her head, saying, “No, it’s just that the fragrance disturbed me.”
She liked osmanthus flowers. It was because, every time osmanthus flowers bloomed, it was around mid-August during the Mid -Autumn Festival. When she was young, she always fantasized about her parents taking her home for the reunion festival. Until later, she realized it was a luxury, and she stopped thinking about it. However, she developed a love for the fragrance of osmanthus.
Beside the bed, Xie Yunjin, seeing Lu Jiao waking up, smiled and handed the osmanthus to her. “Do you like it? Should I find a vase for you to put them in?” Lu Jiao immediately nodded, “Sure, but I think we don’t have osmanthus at home, do we?”
Before Xie Yunjin could respond, the four little ones rushed in like four small cannons, all eagerly speaking.
“We accompanied daddy to Grandpa and Grandma Liu’s house to pick osmanthus.”
“Grandpa and Grandma Liu’s house has a lot of osmanthus trees.”
“These are the best osmanthus flowers daddy picked by climbing the tree.”
After the Third Born finished speaking, Lu Jiao looked at Xie Yunjin in surprise, “You can climb trees?”
Xie Yunjin, feeling a bit uncomfortable, rubbed his nose. “I’m also from the countryside. Why wouldn’t I know how to climb trees?”
He had only added a layer of gloss to himself later by going to school; in fact, he could do many things that rural boys could do.
Lu Jiao laughed and took the osmanthus. She looked at the four little ones and said, “Thank you, Xie Yunjin and my sons.
Lu Jiao finished speaking and bent down to kiss the four little ones one by one.
After being kissed, the four little ones immediately looked at Lu Jiao and said, “Mommy, daddy contributed too. Daddy climbed the tree to pick these osmanthus flowers, and we just accompanied him to Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu’s house.”
Lu Jiao instinctively turned her head to look at Xie Yunjin. There was a fleeting expectation in Xie Yunjin’s eyes. However, recalling what Lu Jiao had said last night, he immediately turned his head towards the four little ones, intending to sternly lecture them.
Unexpectedly, as he turned his head, Lu Jiao quickly kissed him on the side of his face.
Xie Yunjin, surprised, turned to look at Lu Jiao on the bed.
She had just woken up, her hair was loose, her gaze was unfocused, and her skin was as white as sheep’s milk, translucent and smooth. At this moment, holding flowers in her hands, she truly looked more beautiful than the flowers. Her adorable appearance made his heart beat rapidly as if he were a youth experiencing the first stirrings of love.
On the bed, Lu Jiao felt a bit embarrassed. She had just firmly advised taking things slowly yesterday, and now she had acted this way. Would Xie Yunjin misunderstand?
Thinking this, Lu Jiao quietly raised her head to look at Xie Yunjin.
She had no idea how enchanting she looked at this moment, like a newly awakened fawn in the woods.
Xie Yunjin instinctively reached out and pinched her cheek, gently saying, “Alright, let’s get up and have breakfast.”
Lu Jiao immediately nodded, “Okay.”
Seeing their parents’ affectionate interaction, the four little ones grinned. The Fourth Born imitated their father, pinching Lu Jiao’s cheeks and commented. “Isn’t our mommy very cute and lovely, like a little fairy?
The Fourth Born firmly believed that their mother was a cute little fairy. The other three little ones immediately nodded, agreeing that their mommy had been cute and lovely just now.
After hearing the words of the four little ones, Xie Yunjin, afraid that Lu Jiao might feel embarrassed, quickly stood up and took the four little ones outside, saying, “Alright, let’s go find a vase and arrange the flowers for your mother.” The four little ones obediently followed Xie Yunjin outside.
In the room, Lu Jiao held a bunch of osmanthus flowers to her nose. It smelled so good. Thinking about Xie Yunjin and the four little ones, she couldn’t help but happily roll around on the bed.
She realized that she was starting to accept Xie Yunjin. The kiss earlier was an unconscious action, indicating that she didn’t mind being close to Xie Yunjin.
Feng Zhi entered the room and saw the lady of the house rolling around on the bed in an indescribably cute way.
The lady had always been composed and calm, and Feng Zhi rarely saw her behaving so adorable. She couldn’t help but giggle.
When Feng Zhi giggled, Lu Jiao woke from her daze, feeling embarrassed. She sat up and handed the flowers to Feng Zhi. Feng Zhi delicately placed them on the bedside table and then approached to help Lu Jiao get ready.
Just as Lu Jiao had put on her clothes, Xie Yunjin and the four little ones returned with a vase to arrange flowers for her.
The family happily arranged the flowers and then went to the dining room for breakfast.
During the meal, Lu Jiao cautioned Xie Yunjin, “You need to be careful with Li Wenbin. This classmate and friend is not worth forming a deep friendship with. This time, the Zhang family pushed Lady Cao out, and it was quite ruthless. Lady Cao’s father is the one who ruined Liang Ziwen’s prospects.
I heard that Lady Cao is the favorite concubine of Master Cao, and she is also Master Cao’s beloved daughter. You know Master Cao’s personality – he does as he pleases and is ruthless.
I don’t believe Li Wenbin doesn’t know Zhang Biyan’s intentions. Knowing the Zhang family’s plans and still participating shows that he doesn’t value your friendship. In that case, there’s no need to deepen the relationship.”
Xie Yunjin had grown tired of Li Wenbin as a friend since Lady Cao appeared.
Now, hearing Lu Jiao’s words, he nodded solemnly. At the same time, he turned his head to look at Lu Jiao and said, “You be careful too.”
After saying this, he spoke with a stern expression, “We’ve known from the beginning that one day we’ll eliminate the four pests of Qinghe County.” Lu Jiao nodded in agreement.
Outside the door, Lu Gui quickly walked in and reported, “Brother-in-law, sister, Owner Zhao from Baohe Tang is here?”
Xie Yunjin raised an eyebrow slightly and instructed, “Please let him in.” Xie Yunjin no longer had the initial guard against Zhao Lingfeng because Lu Jiao had promised to give him a chance. Lu Jiao’s words carried weight, and he no longer needed to worry about Zhao Lingfeng trying to undermine his position – even if he tried, he wouldn’t succeed.
Zhao Lingfeng soon followed Lu Gui inside.
Seeing someone coming, the four little ones spontaneously quickened their movements, finished their meal, and slid off their chairs to go outside.
However, upon seeing Zhao Lingfeng, the four little ones politely greeted him,
“Hello, Uncle Zhao.”
Zhao Lingfeng nodded, patted the heads of the four little ones, and then said to them, “First, Second, Third and Fourth Born, can Uncle trouble you for a favor?”
