Chapter 351: To Avoid Accidents

Translator: CokeZero Editor: Rainystars

Grand Commander Xu stared at Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao with a troubled expression. His greatest concern now was that Lu Jiao, due to this incident, would become angry and unwilling to provide medical treatment for his illness. That would result in him losing the opportunity to have any children.

“Lady Lu, this is not my fault. I had no idea that the concubine I took in would turn out to be such a treacherous woman. Therefore, can you please not refuse to treat my illness,” Grand Commander Xu pleaded.

Lu Jiao looked at him coldly, “At this moment, you still have the audacity to think about your own treatment. You should focus on rectifying the matters within your own family and avoid causing further trouble.”

After her words, she turned her gaze to the two maids of Concubine Shen and

Zhang and said, “Let’s take these two individuals for custody.”

Xiao Hong and Cui Luer were frightened and quickly shook their heads, “We won’t go, we won’t go!”

Xie Yunjin paid no attention to them and directly commanded Ruan Kai and Li

Nantian, who stood nearby, “Take them away.”

The two of them stepped forward and lifted the two maids up as if they were picking up small chicks. The maidservants couldn’t break free. They turned their heads towards Grand Commander Xu and Lady Zhang, calling out,

“Master, Lady, we don’t want to leave. We want to stay at home.”

Grand Commander Xu ignored them and turned to Lu Jiao, “You may take them away, but you cannot refuse to treat my illness.”

Lu Jiao responded with annoyance, “We are currently facing significant troubles within our family. How can I provide treatment for you? If you genuinely wish to receive treatment, find a way to assist us in capturing Assistant Magistrate Yang and Administrator Peng. Once we apprehend these two troublemakers, the merchants will hesitate to act out against us and our family will not encounter any further problems. At that time, I can then provide you with medical treatment.”

Upon realizing the validity of her words, Grand Commander Xu immediately exclaimed, “Very well, I will find a way to help you capture Yang and Peng. Those two are scoundrels.”

Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao no longer paid him any attention. They turned around and brought Xiao Hong and Cui Luer back to the Xie residence.

During their journey, Xie Yunjin and Lu Jiao had initially been concerned about potential assassination attempts. However, to their surprise, they arrived safely without encountering any incidents. It appeared that the person behind the attempts on Xie Yunjin’s life was now exercising extreme caution, fearing falling into their hands.

“They are being cautious, so we must be even more vigilant,” Xie Yunjin cautioned Lu Jiao, who nodded in agreement.

She couldn’t help but feel infuriated when she thought about Concubine Shen, who had been lurking in the shadows and plotting against them.

“If only we had dealt with her earlier. Did you have any knowledge of her intentions before?”

Lu Jiao suddenly halted, realizing that she had never discussed this matter with Xie Yunjin.

However, when he heard Lu Jiao’s words, Xie Yunjin immediately understood that there were undisclosed events between them. He promptly inquired, “Did she attempt to employ malicious tactics against you in the past?”

Recalling Concubine Shen’s sudden disappearance and the incident when Widow Li visited their house asking for Shen Xiu… It became apparent that something significant had occurred during that period.

Xie Yunjin stared intently at Lu Jiao with his dark and shining eyes. Seeing him like this, Lu Jiao decided not to keep anything from him any longer.

“There was an incident before when I went to Qili to shop around. That woman

happened to be in town as well. She actually recruited several thugs, led by the

man with a scarface, to capture me. You know, I am strong, and those guys

didn’t expect it. I managed to overpower them, and I had scarface sell Shen Xiu

to a brothel.

Now it seems that Shen Xiu must have convinced scarface to cooperate with her. They targeted Grand Commander Xu as their prey and set up a scheme.

Shen Xiu smoothly entered the Xu residence, and scarface received a hundred taels of silver.’

In fact, if it weren’t for Lu Jiao’s sudden display of strength that frightened scarface, he might not have obeyed her and would have gone ahead and sold Shen Xiu. But in the end, Shen Xiu managed to persuade him and handed her over to Grand Commander Xu.

After Lu Jiao finished speaking, she realized that there was a chilling silence in the carriage. She turned her head to look at Xie Yunjin beside her and saw his brows furrowed deeply, his eyes filled with a cold and dark aura.

He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, “That damn woman, we must catch her.”

After saying that, he suddenly turned his gaze toward Lu Jiao and asked, “Can you inform me if anything like this happens again in the future?”

If Lu Jiao had told him, he would not have easily let Shen Xiu off the hook.

Lu Jiao let out a long sigh and said, “I underestimated her. I thought she was just a woman from the countryside. The punishment she received was already severe enough. I didn’t expect her to turn the tables. Actually, if she had obediently served as Grand Commander Xu’s concubine, she might have lived a decent life. But she chose to act recklessly. In that case, this time we absolutely cannot let her go.”

“Yes.”

Xie Yunjin decided that after returning home, he would send Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong to investigate Shen Xiu’s whereabouts. He couldn’t rely solely on Officer Zhao to find Shen Xiu. That woman was nothing but trouble.

The carriage returned to the Xie residence, and Xie Yunjin immediately summoned Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong, giving them a command.

“Li Nantian, Zhou Shaogong, Owner Zhao has always told me that you two are capable individuals. This time, let me see if you truly have the ability.”

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong immediately saluted and solemnly said, “Please give us the task, master.”

“Find out where Shen Xiu is and locate the gold or silver hidden by Yang and

Peng.”

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong didn’t hesitate for a moment and replied in a serious tone, “Yes, we will immediately investigate.”

When their Lady drew Shen Xiu’s portrait, they saw it and remembered what she looked like.

Li Nantian and Zhou Shaogong left the room to carry out the two commands.

Lu Jiao didn’t concern herself with these matters. After she returned to the Xie residence, she arranged two classes for the little ones. One was a math class, and the other was a role-playing class, where they learned how to calmly handle bad situations when being captured by villains.

Lu Jiao arranged these courses because of the recent troubles encountered by the Xie family. Although the four children had been staying safely at home, she still taught them how to handle bad people in case of accidents.

“If someone ever captures you, remember one thing: never cry or make a scene. Crying will only anger the kidnappers, and they might seriously harm you in their anger. We must be obedient and wait for an opportunity to escape. This is similar to what we discussed earlier about abduction cases. Now, let’s practice.”

In the evening, the four children excitedly told Xie Yunjin about what they had learned. Xie Yunjin instinctively looked at Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao explained, “Although they are safe in the mansion, I still rehearsed with them on how to calmly handle dangerous situations as a precaution.”

Normally, when children encounter a dangerous situation, they become frightened and cried loudly. This easily angers the bad people who have captured them, and they might inflict serious harm. Many children have tragically lost their lives due to this. On the contrary, if one was obedient and well-behaved, nothing will happen in the short term unless the person behind it is determined to take one’s life..
