First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space

Slow Down, Don’t Panic

In unison, the people in the room looked over to the porridge and crepes on the table. The four little boys stared at the steaming white porridge and the fragrant egg crepes. They couldn’t help but gulp.

It’s been a long time since they’ve had such fresh porridge and they’ve definitely never eaten crepes this delicious.

The Xie family had a lot of people and there was never enough food left over for them. Normally, the food they did get was taken away by that evil woman. So, most of the time, they never got to eat until everyone else was full and this was why they were so boney and pale.

Though the four little ones were hungry enough to gulp down their saliva, they didn’t move. They all stared at their dad who was in bed.

Xie Yunjin narrowed his eyes and pondered over Lu Jiao’s abnormal behavior today.

That woman used to try and please him once upon a time. However, today was the first time she acted so generously. He was suspicious that she had other intentions.

Xie Yunjin thought about it and said to Xie Erzhu, “Second brother, can you bring me the food and let me check them out?”

Xie Erzhu nodded at the suggestion. It was a good idea to carefully investigate; that woman may just poison the porridge and the crepes.

Honestly, he himself had never seen her so generous. Unusual occurrences normally meant something was up. So, it was better to look into this.

After Xie Yunjin checked out the food, he realized that there was no poison in the food. Just what was that woman planning?

An eerie coldness flashed across Xie Yunjin’s eyes. However, he quickly turned his head to look at the four little ones by his bedside, “You all should eat.”

The four little ones said in unison, “Daddy, you eat first.”

Their words softened Xie Yunjin’s heart a little. These boys were the people who could truly touch him at his softest spot.

“Yes, I will eat with you guys. Go ahead.”

The four little ones nodded happily and then walked to the table. Inside the room, Xie Erzhu took a bowl to feed it to Xie Yunjin.

Xie Yunjin wounded his head so he couldn’t move well. Every movement made him dizzy and nauseous.

Other than his head, he had three broken ribs and internal bleeding from the spleen. Luckily, the volume of blood he lost was low, which allowed him to be able to take medicine and heal slowly. As for his legs…

The thought of his legs turned him gloomy.

Inside the kitchen, Lu Jiao efficiently ate a bowl of porridge. Honestly, she wanted to eat more because she was so hungry. However, when she looked at her flabby belly, she decided to portion control from now on.

As Lu Jiao started to do the dishes, she remembered the people in the east bedroom, who should be done eating by now, she decided to go and get their dirty dishes as well.

Outside the east bedroom window, she suddenly heard Xie Yunjin’s magnetic voice.

“Xie Wenyao, Xie Wenjia, Xie Wenshao, and Xie Wenyu, take your own bowls to the kitchen and wash them.”

Since half a year ago, Xie Yunjin had trained his four little guys to do what they could around the house. So these four little beans didn’t object when they heard their dad’s orders and agreed right away.

“Yes, daddy.”

Outside the window, Lu Jiao heard Xie Yunjin’s words and reacted as if thunderstruck. She was petrified from shock.

Because now, she had confirmed something. Not only did she travel through time, but she also transmigrated into a novel.

Not long ago, a wounded woman was treated in the hospital. She brought a novel with her to read. In the novel, there were four villains who committed all sorts of evil crimes. They would kill people without batting an eye. However, in the novel, the four villains were killed after the male and female protagonists cooperated. The four villains had a dad, who was the First Assistant and in order to avenge his sons, the First Assistant turned into the big boss in the novel and was only killed by the protagonists at the end of the novel.

The four villains had a devious mother – the wife of the First Assistant. Their evil mother died young and her name was Lu Jiao. The four villains were named Xie Wenyao, Xie Wenjia, Xie Wenshao, and Xie Wenyu. That First Assistant was named Xie Yunjin.

Lu Jiao’s face grew unpleasant.

She had transmigrated into the future villains’ devious mother and the wife of the First Assistant who died young. How unfortunate.

Lu Jiao was going crazy when the four little ones came out of the room with their bowls and chopsticks. One of the boys held onto two plates and one of them was the large one that contained the eggs crepes.

The moment the four kids saw her, they started to edge away out of fear. Their careful manners were not at all like villains who would kill without blinking.

Lu Jiao looked at these four little beans who were only up to her knees, then she looked into the room to see the paralyzed man who will one day become the First Assistant. Silently, she told herself.

[Slow down. Don’t panic.]

Inside the east bedroom, Xie Erzhu caringly asked Xie Yunjin, “Third brother, do you need to pee?”

Xie Erzhu was a commoner who’d never read a single book in his life. The way he spoke was also very straightforward. However, Xie Yunjin didn’t seem to mind.

“Not right now. Second brother, you should go back and do your own thing.”

Xie Erzhu and his wife were the laborers of the Xie family. They were in charge of all the dirty and tiring tasks around the house. Their two daughters, despite their young age, were also asked to feed the chickens and the ducks.

Before, Xie Yunjin had warned Xie Erzhu and his wife to slow down and work less. However, those two were honest hard workers.

Due to this, Xie Yunjin would sneak some silver to those two just so they could buy some good food in private and nourish their bodies.

He had no idea that there would come a day when his kindness would be rewarded. When everyone else had given up on him, his second eldest brother used all the money he had to seek advice from the doctor.

Xie Yunjin’s emotions were unspeakably complex. As Xie Erzhu turned to leave, he muttered, “Third younger brother, I’ll go home first to do some work and I’ll come and check up on you in the afternoon.”

Xie Yunjin silently watched him leave and he wondered whether or not he’d be able to stand up again in this lifetime. If he could, he promised to treat his second eldest brother’s family well.

Outside the room, Lu Jiao saw Xie Erzhu come and she weakly greeted, “Second brother, you’re going back?”

Xie Erzhu stared at his sister-in-law in awe. Was she possessed? This was so scary.

Xie Erzhu didn’t dare to stay and headed out of the courtyard right away. However, after a few steps, a crash came from the kitchen.

Someone had broken a bowl in the kitchen.

Xie Erzhu’s expression changed and he glanced at Lu Jiao speedily. Lu Jiao walked towards the kitchen and afraid that she would hit the kids again, Xie Erzhu followed her.

Inside the kitchen, the youngest one, the Fourth Born, accidentally broke his bowl while washing it. He was now in tears because he was so startled.

The moment Lu Jiao got into the kitchen, the First Born stood up, “Me. I was the one who broke it.”

The Second Born chimed in, “I broke it.”

The Third Born was quick to follow, “I broke it. It was me.”

Those three were obviously scared as their little legs quivered. However, they refused to retreat.

Lu Jiao didn’t think much of this but she didn’t go up to them to comfort them. Right now, she wasn’t sure how she should deal with this situation.

“Enough, get out of here.”

The four little ones thought they heard wrong and they exchanged glances. The First Born was the first to react. He grabbed the Fourth Born’s hands and lifted his legs to run. Behind them, the Second and Third born escaped in a hurry as well.

Lu Jiao walked over to start washing the bowls. Those four little guys were like baby chickens. Why would they bother washing the dishes?
