Lu Jiao marched into the living room and found an adult and four children staring at her. They looked guilty.
Lu Jiao asked, "What is it? Why are you acting strange?"
Lu Jiao noticed the empty living room and asked, "You ended the lesson this early?"
The four little ones' eyes flicked to their dad, who asked a question in response, "Did my brother ask you to go check out the leech pond?"
Lu Jiao nodded. The Xie Village had cleared off an area to use as the temporary space for leech keeping.
Since the opportunity to keep leeches was rare and no accidents should be allowed, Lu Jiao would make time to provide Xie Erzhu with guidance every day. By now, Xie Erzhu had learned a lot.
"Yes, he was scared the leeches would die so he's being very careful."
Xie Yunjin asked caringly, "Do you think my brother can handle everything?"
