234 Remorse that Meant Nothing

Lady Tian whispered into the First Born’s ear, “Have your mom and dad been getting along well?”

The First Born’s eyes lit up and he nodded with much strength.

Lady Tian gave him some ideas, “Once you move into the city, let your parents sleep in the same room. Only when two people sleep together, will their relations.h.i.+p improve. Once your parents have more children, your mom won’t leave.”

As a mother, Lady Tian didn’t want her daughter to divorce her son-in-law. Her daughter told her that her son-in-law didn’t like her and that was why Lady Tian felt okay with the separation.

If a woman fails to receive her man’s love her entire life, she would feel extremely sad.

She didn’t want her daughter to be so sad. But based on her observation, her son-in-law appeared to like her daughter.

Her son-in-law continued to peek at her daughter with light in his eyes.

Lady Tian’s been through it all and could tell her son-in-law liked her daughter. So why did her daughter deny that?

Could it be that her son-in-law didn’t know how to express himself? Lady Tian thought that was a very real possibility.

Therefore, she gave the First Born some tips.

The First Born nodded and whispered to Lady Tian, “Mommy promised us that she would share a room with daddy once we move.”

Lady Tian smiled and patted the First Born’s head, “You boys are so smart.”

At the lunch table, the Lu family noticed how happy Lady Tian and the First Born were and asked, “What are you two chatting about? You seem so happy!”

Of course, Lady Tian wasn’t going to tell everyone what they were talking about. She hasn’t even told Lu Danian about Lu Jiao’s pending separation from Xie Yunjin.

“I’m just teasing the First Born.”

People continued getting drinks with Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao to pay their respect. Some people also went to Xie Laogen to tell him how lucky he was to have a son like this. With such a son, he was going to spend the rest of his life enjoying luxury.

Xie Laogen felt like he was floating. No matter who asked him to drink, he drank. In the end, he successfully got drunk.

A lot of other elders and older generation leaders also got drunk during this housewarming lunch.

Xie Yunjin asked some people to walk the drunk ones home.

Everyone was ecstatic at this housewarming lunch as they ate. Not only were there a lot of people, but there was also a lot of alcohol. More importantly, Lu Jiao even prepared gifts for everyone to bring home after.

Three zongzi and five pieces of candy.

Thought it wasn’t a lot of stuff, they were all rather rare items. Therefore, everyone left the Xie family with their stuff happily.

The Lu family also expressed their desire to leave. Lu Jiao asked them to stay the night, but Lu Danian and Lady Tian declined.

“We want to get back as soon as possible so we can start selling tofu tomorrow.”

Lady Tian grabbed her daughter’s hands, “Tomorrow, your family will be moving to the city of Qinghe. It’ll be harder for us to see each other.”

Lady Tian’s heart ached. Now that her children were older, they all want to get further away from her.

Luckily, she’ll still have her eldest son, daughter-in-law, and grandson with her. The thought of her daughter leaving, however, still made her eyes red.

Xie Yunjin spoke up first, “If you miss Lu Jiao, you can visit her in the city.”

Lu Jjiao nodded, “Mom if you miss me, come visit. That way, I can show you around the city.”

Lady Tian patted Lu Jiao’s hand then turned to Xie Yunjin. She said with a thoughtful tone, “Yunjin, I’m leaving Jiaojiao with you. I hope you’ll treat her well. If she does anything wrong, you can tell me, and I’ll teach her a lesson. You are not allowed to hurt her yourself.”

Her words made Lu Jiao’s eyes red.

Xie Yunjin glanced at Lu Jiao then promised quickly, “Don’t worry, mother, I won’t hurt her.”

The thought of Lu Jiao’s determination to divorce made him silently mumble, who was the one doing the hurting here? It was obvious he was the one getting hurt yet he couldn’t complain.

Lady Tian stopped worrying. She cautioned Lu Jiao about a few other things and then left with the Lu family.

Lu An, the second brother, was anxious and reminded Lu Jiao, “Sister, don’t forget to find me something to do.”

Lu Jiao hasn’t had a chance to talk to Zhao Lingfeng about having Lu An manage the three businesses, so she didn’t tell Lu An anything.

The four little ones watched Lady Tian and the others leave. Sad to see them go, they continued to wave around their hands.

“Grandma, grandpa, next time, come to the city of Qinghe to see us.”

“Aunt, uncle, bring Huzi next time.”

Huzi was going home with his family this time and he was very sad about it. With tears in his eyes, he kept his head turned towards the four little ones and waved his hand at them.

After so long, he and his cousins were getting along very well now. He must admit that he had to take back everything he’s said before. Not only were his cousins good-looking, they were also great boys. They shared their toys and introduced him to their friends. Everyone treated him so nicely!

He truly was sad to leave. While he cried, he looked up to his mom and dad, “I don’t want to go back. Why am I not my aunt’s child?”

Uncle and aunt Lu’s faces turned dark. They didn’t mind him so why did he mind them!

“Huzi, is your b.u.t.t itchy?”

Xie Yunjin, Lu Jiao, and the four little ones watched the Lu family leave. They then started to walk back to their courtyard right away.

Xie Yunjin said, “Early morning, Cla.s.smate Han’s horse carriage will arrive to pick up us. You should get all the stuff we are bringing ready.”

He then glanced at the old clothes Lu Jiao wore and once again reminded himself to pick her up some new clothes and jewelry as soon as possible.

Lu Jiao didn’t know about his thoughts and headed back to their courtyard.

The moment the family entered the yard, they found Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan staring at them with sadness.

“Third brother, third sister-in-law.”

Lu Jiao didn’t want to acknowledge those two b.a.s.t.a.r.ds and merely nodded at them. She then took the children to the main house.

Behind, Xie Yunjin raised an eyebrow, “What’s wrong?”

Xie Yunhua’s eyes were red and he croaked, “Third brother, you’re leaving just like that? You’re truly not going to care for me anymore?”

Xie Lan also started to cry, “Third brother, you’re leaving us behind?”

Xie Lan was most anxious about her marriage. These days, everyone seemed to have forgotten about the fact that she needed to get married. Her father acted like he didn’t know while her other brothers and in-laws never asked. If she continued to delay this, there would be n.o.body left for her to marry.

Xie Lan was getting more and more worried and she kept her gaze on Xie Yunjin.

Xie Yunjin’s expression was cold, “I was exiled from the family. It’s inappropriate for me to care for you. If you need anything, you can talk to father or eldest brother.”

Xie Yunhua and Xie Lan felt hopeless. Their third brother hated them this much?

Xie Yunhua apologized as he cried, “Third brother, I’m sorry. It was all my fault! I must apologize to you.”

Xie Lan said the same, “Third brother, I was wrong too. I should’ve visited when you were hurt.”

The two of them were truly regretful now but their late remorse weighed nothing.

Plus, they were only apologizing now in order to get what they want. Xie Yunjin knew that so very well and didn’t even want to talk to them.

“Enough. If you need anything, go find our eldest brother. Don’t come to me again. I am not going to get involved.”
