First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space Chapter 264 – 264 It was Lu Jiao who Operated

264 It was Lu Jiao who Operated

Xie Yunjin carefully explained, “Adults tend to judge people based on their appearances. For example, if you see a child, you may subconsciously decide that the child is weak. Sometimes, however, a child can be strong. Another example is if you see a weak and sick beggar on the street, you may pity him. However, sometimes, the beggar might be a non-blinking evil thief. This is why you shouldn't draw conclusions based on people's appearances only. You should get to know the person and judge them based on how they handle things. Remember that.”

The four little ones nodded, “Daddy, we understand.”

Since it was late, Lu Jiao patted the four little ones' heads, “You boys stay home with uncle and I will go to Baohe Tang.”

Given that it was Baohe Tang's grand opening, there must be incoming patients today. Even if none come today, Zhao Lingfeng would still hire some actor to make it look like the clinic was a hot spot.

The four little ones wanted to tag along.

“Mommy, we want to go too.”

There was no way Lu Jiao would take them today. There were going to be a lot of people.

Lu Jiao told the four little ones, “I have serious business to do today. Once I'm freer, I'll bring you. Ah, also, you need to stay with your uncle and keep an eye on the front courtyard for me.”

The four little ones were successfully distracted. They nodded and expressed, “Mommy, don't worry, we will help you.”

“Yes, we promise to accomplish the task.”

Lu Jiao and Xie Yunjin exchanged a few more words with the four little ones before they headed to the front courtyard. On the way there, Xie Yunjin cautioned Feng Zhi, “Please keep an eye on my wife. Don't let anyone hurt her.”

Lu Jiao didn't even want to bring Feng Zhi but Xie Yunjin persisted that she brought her along.

Lu Jiao didn't think it was worth fighting over this and agreed.

Feng Zhi nodded, “Master, don't worry. I will keep an eye on Lady Lu.”

Lu Jiao noticed how he carefully instructed Feng Zhi and couldn't help but feel a warmth wash over her.

Xie Yunjin walked them all the way to the horse carriage and added, “If you need anything, you can send someone for me. I'll be teaching at the place I rented.”

“Okay.”

The horse carriage headed towards Baohe Tang. Behind them, Xie Yunjin and Lin Dong went to the house not far away from there.

Today, all the students Xie Yunjin taught were sons of merchants. Of course, the children went beyond the four richest families and most of them were only comfortably wealthy. These people also didn't have the reputation of being bullies. If they were, Xie Yunjin wouldn't be teaching them.

The dean obviously knew Xie Yunjin's personality and therefore didn't pick people Xie Yunjin disliked.

“Brother Yunjin, you're here. Can you please look over the scripture I wrote yesterday?”

“I wrote an essay yesterday regarding filial piety. Can you please have a read?”

“I drafted some poems last night. Please give me some feedback.”

Xie Yunjin studied these students and then nodded, “Everyone, come with me.”

He had a room all for himself. Sometimes, classmate Han would join him here to study.

The students followed Xie Yunjin inside. Once everyone got seated, he started to read everything the students had written. He then gave each one of them constructive feedback before he sent them back out to rewrite.

Xie Yunjin took the chance to have some water. Outside, Lin Dong walked in and announced, “Master, master Hu Shan is here.”

Xie Yunjin felt anger grow inside him. If it weren't for Hu Shan, he would never've offended Liang Ziwen.

“Let him in.”

Lin Dong let Hu Shan in.

Hu Shan knew he was in the wrong and spoke first, “Yunjin, don't be mad. Everything is my fault. I have talked to Liang Ziwen and he has agreed to not dwell on the fact that your wife and you hit him.”

Xie Yunjin stared at Hu Shan in disbelief, “Hu Shan, how can you be so naïve? You really think Liang Ziwen is the kind of person to just let this go?

Hu Shan was a little frustrated and stared at Xie Yunjin angrily.

Before he could speak, Xie Yunjin added, “You really think that just because you're the son of the magistrate, your words mean something to Liang Ziwen? You truly are arrogant.”

Hu Shan didn't expect Xie Yunjin to say things that were so hard to hear. His face turned cold and he angrily shouted, “Xie Yunjin, why must you think so poorly of others? Liang Ziwen had agreed to not dwell on what happened, yet you don't believe him.

I helped you out of the goodness of my heart. Instead of thanking me, you mock me? You're truly impossible.”

Xie Yunjin coldly snickered, “Ha, you were the one who caused me this much trouble yet you're asking me to thank you? How underdeveloped is your brain? Please keep your distance from us. You may cause my family even more trouble.”

Based on what Xie Yunjin learned from the artisan today, he knew magistrate Hu was essentially a puppet who got to keep his title. Yet this young master still acted fearless and thoughtless.

Xie Yunjin didn't want such a friend. People like him may hurt him in the future.

Hu Shan angrily yelled, “Who wants to be close to you anyway?! If your wife didn't save my wife, I never would've talked to you. How cocky are you!”

Xie Yunjin smacked back, “If you want to thank someone, you should thank Dr. Qi.”

Because Hu Shan was angry, he forgot what his wife had told him to keep hush. Furiously, he let it slip, “Your wife was the one who saved my wife. Why would I go and thank Dr. Qi?!”

Xie Yunjin opened his lips, “How's that related to my wi-”

He stopped suddenly as various memories flashed across his brain.

Such as how much respect Zhao Lingfeng and Dr. Qi had shown Lu Jiao all this time. Such as how Baohe Tang sent a horse carriage to pick up Lu Jiao when an arrow shot someone. Such as when Hu Shan's wife was in labor, Baohe Tang sought Lu Jiao's help. Such as the words that were coming out of Hu Shan's mouth.

Xie Yunjin's heart rate increased and his brain buzzed.

He snapped his head up, “My wife saved your wife. Yet you repay me by bringing Liang Ziwen to my home and cause my family trouble? Hu Shan, are you even human?”

Hu Shan knew then that Xie Yunjin was aware that it was Lu Jiao who performed surgery on his wife to save her and her child. He mumbled, “It wasn't my intention. Plus, I have already asked Liang Ziwen to drop this.”

Xie Yunjin couldn't hear anything anymore and only one thought swayed in his head.

It wasn't Dr. Qi who operated on his legs – it was Lu Jiao. Not only did she save him, but she also saved the man who was shot by the arrow and Hu Shan's wife. There was a reason why Baohe Tang's owner Zhang and Dr. Qi treated her with the utmost respect. That 1/3 share Zhao Lingfeng offered also made sense now.

Her medical skills were so out of the world that Zhao Lingfeng naturally wanted to keep her close.
