Chapter 307: Don’t Blame him for being Cruel

Translator: CokeZero Editor: Rainystars

The craftsman worked while they chatted with Lu Jiao, “Lady Lu, you’re so smart to be able to think of so many ways to teach the four young masters.”

Lu Jiao was putting books away on the shelves at the moment. The room was now filled with small shelves so the four little ones could pick out books for themselves.

Lu Jiao smiled and said, “I’m just okay.”

She simply used the concept of modern kindergarten and she wanted the four little ones to have a happy childhood. It would be a bit sad if the four little ones thought of the Four Books and Five Classics when they thought back to their childhood.

The four little ones started to compliment her.

“My mommy isn’t just smart. She knows so much! She even knows how to make toys, hunt, and give medical advice. She’s also good at making money. Basically, she’s the number one mommy in the world.”

The craftsman was shocked, “Is that true?”

The four little ones were about to say more when Lu Jiao responded, “I can only help with mild illnesses. I’m not that amazing.”

She didn’t want to make herself sound too great and end up getting a bunch of patients knocking on her door.

Lu Jiao told the four little ones, “Take the toys you bought this morning and put them into your boxes. Then, put the boxes away in the back courtyard. If you ever get more toys, you can organize them in your box.”

The four little ones nodded happily. Just then, from outside the room, a little head peeked in.

Lu Jiao noticed that it was uncle Lin’s younger son, Lin Xi, who’s been sick since the family started living here. Lu Jiao had prescribed him some medicine and he seemed to have gotten better.

When Lin Xi showed up, the four little ones waved at him to come inside.

Each one of the little ones took out a toy for Lin Xi, “Lin Xi, we know you’ve been sick so we bought you some toys. Since you’re here, take them now.”

Lin Xi was astounded. For the past several days, his mother, father, and brother were so worried that the Xie family would kick him out. Most of the time, servants who got sick were kicked out.

He didn’t expect the masters to keep him around and even give him medicine. The young masters were now giving him toys? Lin Xi’s eyes turned red.

He didn’t dare to take them and only looked up at Lu Jiao. Lu Jiao grinned at him, “Those are gifts from the young masters – feel free to take them. You can help me take care of them going forward.”

Lin Xi happily accepted the toys and thanked the four little ones, “Thank you, young masters.”

The First Born brandished his hand as if he was a tiny adult, “It’s no big deal. You’re like our family. We should be giving you gifts since you’re sick. If you have the time, you should study with us.”

Lin Xi nodded eagerly and started to help the four little ones move their boxes. It was difficult for him since he was so little.

In the end, it was Lu Gui who carried the four boxes full of toys away.

Inside the room, the craftsmen peeked at Lu Jiao and hesitantly whispered,

“Lady Lu, can we make these furniture for other families?”

The craftsmen knew that the furniture they’d been making for the Xie family would be very popular amongst the wealthy. If they could make these crafts for other families, they would get more income.

After they asked, the craftsmen added instantly, “We can consider all the work we’ve done free. How about that?”

The few craftsmen studied Lu Jiao carefully, terrified that Lu Jiao would say no.

Lu Jiao honestly didn’t care. She wasn’t planning to profit from furniture making anyway. It would be good for the craftsmen to make some more money.

She smiled at them, “If other families want, of course, you can make these for them. It’s okay. As for the work you’ve already done for me, don’t worry, I’m not going to underpay you a single cent. Stop worrying.”

The workers were all recommended by Classmate Han and were all hard-working and humble. They didn’t come from wealthy families so there was no way Lu Jiao would cut their pay.

The craftsmen happily responded, “Lady Lu, you’re a great person. We won’t take the money from you.”

They could imagine how much money they’d make if they showed others these designs. Therefore, they didn’t need to take payment for this project.

Lu Jiao didn’t say anything. She’ll just still pay them once everything’s done.

The atmosphere was friendly and cheerful, which motivated the craftsmen to work even harder.

Lu Jiao organized the front courtyard, then went to the back to write out Arabic numerals. She planned on putting these on the walls inside the room. She then made up some math problems to teach the four little ones how to solve later. Then, she wrote some short stories and put them in the literature room. The four little ones will read those out loud.

The stories Lu Jiao read were all meaningful with the intention to pass down good traits, such as how people should be hardworking, open-minded, filial, and respectful.

She originally wanted to create some role-playing scripts where the four little ones could act out and learn how to defend themselves against bad guys. Something that would show them how to deal with kidnappers like today. She also wanted them to learn how to tell the bad guys from the good.

Before Lu Jiao got the time to write the scripts, Xie Yunjin returned.

Lu Jiao saw how cold and unhappy he appeared and knew right away that Officer Zhao hadn’t made much progress on the kidnapping incident. That kidnapper likely didn’t reveal who he was working for. “That person didn’t point out who was behind this?” Xie Yunjin sat down on the chair before the desk. “Yeah. Officer Zhao tortured him but he refused to speak.”

Lu Jiao was amused, “That guy sure is loyal.”

Xie Yunjin didn’t respond to that directly, “Though he didn’t straight up tell us anything, I managed to trick some information out of him.” Lu Jiao was immediately interested and straightened up, “Who is it?”

“Du Lanzhu was the one who asked for this to be done.”

Xie Yunjin’s eyes were full of disgust. Before, he tried to teach Du Lanzhu a lesson. Instead of learning from it, she chose to go further with her evil plans. If that was the case, then she couldn’t blame Xie Yunjin for being cruel.

Xie Yunjin had taken Lin Dong to go investigate Du Lanzhu. They discovered that she’s been hooking up with one of her cousins. When Classmate Han was away, that cousin of hers would take her shopping and eating. The two of them were so happy together.

When Xie Yunjin investigated her, it didn’t take him long at all to make that discovery. Lots of people knew about it. Basically, everyone knew except the Han family. All their neighbors were laughing at them behind their backs and they didn’t even know.

When Xie Yunjin found out about this, he pulled an all-nighter to set up a little scheme. He lied to get Du Lanzhu’s cousin out then Du Lanzhu out. Then, the matter was exposed.

When Classmate Han found out that Du Lanzhu was fooling around with her cousin, he was disgusted and wanted to divorce her.

Before, due to the business ties the Han and Du families had, Classmate Han’s parents never agreed to a divorce. Now that it was public information that Du Lanzhu was entangled with her cousin, Classmate Han’s parents agreed to the divorce..
