There is Room For the First Wife

Chapter 14: awkward man

When Lu Jiao told Xie Yunjin this, she wanted him to look at Xiaodouding, but she didn't mean to explain it to him.

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left. Behind Xie Yunjin squinted at her back. The woman was still fat, but her pace was steady, neither rushed nor dry. Her gestures exuded confidence, not like her at all.

The more Xie Yunjin thought about it, the more he felt that this woman seemed to be a different person. Originally, he thought that this should be taught by her mother-in-law, but if her mother-in-law can teach people to be like this, why didn't she teach her well? But looking at her face, she was exactly the same as before.

Xie Yunjin was puzzled.

Lu Jiao ignored Xie Yunjin. After leaving the room, she rummaged in the house for a long time, but did not find a hatchet, but found a tattered backpack.

But without a hatchet, how could she go up the mountain to chop wood, Lu Jiao turned around with the basket on her back and went out to borrow a knife.

However, her reputation is not very good now, and ordinary people may not be able to borrow it. Lu Jiao is a little embarrassed standing in front of the fence.

Not far away, in front of a courtyard, a thin old lady saw that she was standing in front of the door with an embarrassed look on her face, so she came over and asked as she walked.

"Daughter-in-law Yun Jin, what's wrong?"

Lu Jiao turned around and thought about it carefully. She remembered who this old lady was, her father-in-law Xie Laogen's second sister-in-law, Xia Shi, and everyone in the village called her second grandma.

The second grandfather died early, and the second grandmother was a widow. She raised two sons and two daughters by herself. She was very charitable. They were driven here before, and the second grandmother also brought a few boiled eggs over.

Seeing the second grandma, Lu Jiao smiled and said, "Second grandma, do you have a hatchet at home? There is no firewood at home. I want to go up the mountain to chop some firewood."

When the second grandmother heard Lu Jiao's words, she immediately felt distressed: "What kind of firewood are you going up to the mountain as a woman, and let my Huzi go up the mountain to chop some wood for you."

Hu Zi is the grandson of the second grandmother. He is already married, but he has been married for two years and seems to have no children.

Lu Jiao naturally couldn't ask Huzi to chop wood for her, it wasn't a matter of a day or two.

"Second grandma, no need, I'll just walk around the mountain and chop up some useful ones, but I won't go up the mountain."

After hearing this, the second grandmother stopped insisting, and pulled Lu Jiao to the house to get a hatchet.

The second grandma's family is now separated. She lives with the eldest son. The eldest daughter-in-law, Zhao, sees Lu Jiao, and she obviously doesn't like it and ignores it. However, Lu Jiao didn't say much, just took the hatchet and left.

The second grandmother in the back warned worriedly, and Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but muttered, "Mother, why would you lend her our knife for good? She can chop wood. This is a joke, right?"

The second grandmother looked back at her daughter-in-law and said, "Okay, it's not easy for a woman to bring a seriously injured man and four dolls. You can help if you can. Don't be as mean as your four grandfathers and four grandmothers."

Lu Jiao ignored the people behind her. She took the hatchet and went all the way up the mountain. Xiejia Village was close to the mountain, and Lu Jiao lived in the westernmost part of the village, closer to the mountain.

However, her body is really useless. After going up the mountain, she was sweating profusely from exhaustion, and her clothes were all wet. Fortunately, it was summer, so there was no serious problem.

After Lu Jiao went up the mountain, she first observed it. There are quite a lot of resources on the mountain, the most abundant of which are medicinal materials, as well as some wild vegetables, wild fruits, mushrooms and other things.

Originally, according to her thoughts, there should not be many things on this mountain. After all, there are many villages around, but after looking at it, she found that there are many things on the mountain.

Lu Jiao was puzzled at first, but after thinking about it, she realized that the villagers in the village were basically illiterate and had little knowledge. There were things on the mountain that could be eaten or not, so they dared not move around for fear of encountering poisonous things. thing.

Usually, when villagers go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables and mushrooms, they just pick the ones they have seen, and they don’t dare to touch those they haven’t seen before.

Lu Jiao thought and smiled, made a trap on the mountain, and threw the little bamboo rat she caught smeared with Lingquan water into it.

After doing this, she took the woodchopping knife and went to chop wood.

Lu Jiao was very strong, and it was easy to chop wood, so she quickly chopped up a bunch of them.

But he chopped and chopped, thinking of Xie Yunjin, who was paralyzed in bed. Because of the concussion and spleen hemorrhage, Xie Yunjin couldn't make any big moves right now, so he couldn't get out of bed. This pee was easy to solve.

Lu Jiao thought for a while and decided to use bamboo to make a simple toilet. She chopped some bamboo and found some glue that could stick on the mountain.

After finishing this, it was getting late, Lu Jiao hurriedly went to the trap to check, and found that there were two pheasants and one hare in the trap, and they were all alive.

Lu Jiao laughed happily, this is all meat.

She took the pheasant and the hare and carried firewood on her back all the way down the mountain.

Because it was already dark, I didn't meet anyone on the road. When I entered the door, I saw four little heads clinging to the front of the main room. When the four little guys saw her figure, they all shrank back. .

Lu Jiao shook her head amusingly, and put the firewood that was taller than a human body at the kitchen door. Because the firewood cut from the mountain was wet, it would take a few days to burn.

But it was getting late. Lu Jiao was going to make dinner. Before making dinner, she went to the east bedroom.

On the bed, Xie Yunjin woke up. Seeing her coming back, her eyes darkened slightly. Lu Jiao raised her eyebrows and asked Xie Yunjin, "Are you thirsty, let me pour a glass of water for you to moisten your throat first?"

Xie Yunjin refused with a cold face: "No, go and cook, the children are hungry."

Seeing that he was not thirsty, Lu Jiao turned around and walked out.

Later, Xie Yunjin licked his lips subconsciously, his whole body was indescribably gloomy, and his eyes were full of cold air.

He didn't expect that one day, he would fall into such a state of embarrassment and need to rely on the woman he hates to take care of him, which made him extremely self-loathing.

In front of the door, Lu Jiao suddenly stopped and looked back, just in time to see Xie Yunjin licking her lips involuntarily, she was clearly thirsty.

Lu Jiao was speechless, this man was really awkward.

The future Shoufu-sama turned out to be an awkward man.

Lu Jiao stopped talking, turned around and strode out and poured a bowl of sugar water over, but she also thought to herself, Xie Yunjin was injured and should add more water, this was her dereliction of duty.

While thinking about it, Lu Jiao brought sugar water into the house: "Drink a bowl of water first."

Xie Yunjin listened to her words and immediately refused: "I said no."

Lu Jiao ignored him, brought the water over, lifted him up slightly, and commanded with a strong attitude, "Okay, drink water."

Xie Yunjin stared at her coldly, and finally lowered his head to drink water, the sweet sugar water entered his throat, and the whole person felt very comfortable.

When feeding the water, Lu Jiao said casually: "Today I went up the mountain to chop firewood, caught two pheasants and a hare, and I will cook chicken soup for you tomorrow. In addition, I picked two ganoderma lucidum trees on the mountain, one will be taken tomorrow. Go to Baohetang to sell, the money..."
