First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space

172 Is Yunjin as Heavy as a Boar?
Lu Jiao knew right away that Uncle Youcai was done with the wheelchair. She happily entered her home with her basket.

Inside the bedroom, the four little ones heard noises and ran outside to sweetly smile at Lu Jiao.

“Mommy, you’re back!”

Lu Jiao patted their heads and went into the bedroom with them.

Inside, Uncle Youcai explained the mechanics of the wheelchair to Xie Yunjin, “For this wheelchair, the most important thing is this wooden bearing. Regular wood is no good for this. So I went into the mountains to find a sturdier and harder wood. This is why it took me so long to finish.”

Uncle Youcai chuckled out of embarrassment. Only now did Lu Jiao realize why this wheelchair took so long. He made a good point – if he used normal wood, the bearing would snap very quickly after a while.

Lu Jiao thanked Uncle Youcai, “Thank you.”

Xie Yunjin did the same.

Uncle Youcai now felt even more embarrassed. He lent his arm to Xie Yunjin so he could get out of bed and try it out.

Xie Yunjin turned to Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao didn’t understand at first but then realized. He was asking her to carry him to the wheelchair.

Xie Yunjin’s expression was natural and he didn’t look at all stumped. Lu Jiao was astounded. Not long before, he refused to be carried by her and now he was asking for it?

Inside the room, someone laughed and rushed, “Third aunt, hurry and help third uncle into the wheelchair.”

Now it was Lu Jiao’s turn to feel embarrassed. However, since everyone was staring and waiting, she couldn’t really say no. It wasn’t like she’s never carried him.

Lu Jiao leaned down and carried Xie Yunjin, then turned around and put him into the wheelchair.

The wheelchair was big and Xie Yunjin settled in well.

Once he was seated, he impatiently tried out the wheels – they worked. However, they were made out of wood, and moving around was a little difficult. Regardless, Xie Yunjin was satisfied to gain the ability to move around.

Everyone inside the room who witnessed this cheered, “Oh my, this chair could move by itself?”

“Uncle Youcai, you’re amazing. How did you create such a thing?”

Uncle Youcai was again embarrassed, “It was designed by Yunjin’s wife. No way I could come up with this.”

Everyone then started to compliment Lu Jiao, “What is Yunjin’s wife’s brain made out of? She knows medicine, knows herbs, knows leech keeping, and now she can design stuff like this?”

“She’s a miracle doctor. All miracle doctors are extraordinary, you know?”

Aunt Guihua entered at the moment and started her normal flattering figure of speech.

“Jiaojiao’s brain is like no other. She’s got a miracle doctor’s brain. Everything complex that enters her head becomes simplified.”

Lu Jiao didn’t like this at all and pushed Xie Yunjin’s wheelchair, “Let me bring you outside to soak up some Sun. Sunshine is good for bone regrowth.”

Ever since Xie Yunjin’s been injured, he’s been in bed. To be able to get outside now made him ecstatic and he agreed right away, “Okay.”

The wheelchair got stuck when it arrived at the front door due to the doorhill. That was not a problem for Lu Jiao. She carried Xie Yunjin and the wheelchair together and marched out.

The group of people in the yard couldn’t help but laugh at this, “Yunjin’s wife sure is strong.”

“Of course. She was seen carrying a wild boar. Yunjin isn’t as heavy as a boar.”

Xie Yunjin had no idea how to respond to this. How did he end up in the same category as a boar?

While Lu Jiao lifted him and the two of them were pressed closely together, he smelled the faint fragrance of her body.

Xie Yunjin’s face grew hot and the back of his ears turned red.

Since everyone was focused on the wheelchair, nobody noticed it.

He sighed in relief.

The villagers soon surrounded him and curiously asked him about the wheelchair.

Lu Jiao stepped back with a smile and went to the kitchen to organize the stuff she bought. Once she was done, she started to make lunch.

Outside, the villagers went back one by one. It was noon and everyone had to cook.

Xie Yunjin comfortably leaned back into the wheelchair and soaked up the Sun. What a pleasure it was to feel the Sun on his body. Though it was hot, he was very satisfied.

The four little ones circled around and said, “Daddy, where do you want to go? I’ll push you!”

“I can push you too!”

The four little ones fought over it while Xie Yunjin grinned at them and said in a doting tone, “Don’t fight. If I need to go anywhere, you can take turns pushing.”

“Okay.”

Lu Jiao came out of the kitchen with a few peaches. She said to the children, “Lunch isn’t ready. Eat a peach first.”

The four little ones were happy to see peaches and each grabbed one. However, they realized soon that their mom didn’t have one for herself. The First Born instantly shoved Lu Jiao his, “Mommy, you take this.”

The other three saw this and fought amongst each other to give her theirs.

Lu Jiao simply forgot to take one for herself and laughed, “I saved one in the kitchen. These are for you and your dad.”

The four little ones didn’t persist then. The First Born gave Xie Yunjin one and the sons and their father ate peaches and chatted. This image was unspeakably harmonious.

Xie Yunjin was all smiles as he studied his surroundings. Right now, he felt like everything was so great. It seemed that these days, everything was heading in the direction he imagined for himself.

Lu Jiao cleanly made some noodles and stir-fried some pork and smashed some cucumbers.

“I didn’t have time to make a lot for lunch. Let’s eat a simple meal.”

Xie Yunjin and the four little ones saw all the food and commented, “This is really great.”

Back at the Xie family home, they never got to eat until they were full. Compared to before, now was heaven, and back then was hell.

Xie Yunjin studied the four little ones carefully. Now, not only were they bright and tender, their cheeks grew chubbier. He felt that they grew taller as well.

Xie Yunjin’s chest felt full as he looked at the cute boys.

When he looked at Lu Jiao, his gaze was filled with emotions.

“Sit down and eat. You ran around all day and must be hungry.”

The four little ones chimed in as well, “Mommy, sit down and eat.”

The four little ones held her hand and pulled her to sit. This was the first time everyone in this family sat around the same table for a meal.

Before, at their grandparents’, there were far too many people. Everyone simply found any spot in the house to sit and eat. Today was the first time they could all sit together and share a meal. How delightful!

The Fourth Born was quick to put food in Lu Jiao’s bowl, “Mommy, eat meat.”

Xie Yunjin thought the Fourth Born acted inappropriately and wanted to lecture him.

Lu Jiao, however, ate the food he picked out for her and grinned at the Fourth Born, “Thank you, my son.”

The Second and Third Borns then did the same. Not only did they give food to Lu Jiao, but they also picked out some food for Xie Yunjin.

Though Lu Jiao didn’t mind, she still felt the need to educate.

“In the future, use a common chopstick to give food to people, got it?”

The four little ones asked her strangely, “Why?”

“See, we eat using our own chopsticks. If you pick out food for other people using your own chopstick, it’s considered rude. You may also get stomach worms if you use your chopsticks like
