The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 165 – Pay Money to Avoid Misfortune

Chapter 165: Pay Money to Avoid Misfortune

Xie Qiao understood what Xie Pinggang meant roughly—pay money to avoid misfortune.

Given Pei Wanyue’s temper, she might create even bigger troubles in the future if she was not taught properly. He would rather send her away now so that they could live a peaceful life in the future.

Naturally, Ms. Lu would still be living with them. It would be impossible for them to cut ties entirely. However, Pei Wanyue would just be a normal relative. She could visit occasionally, but it would be impossible for her to come to the Xie Residence often.

“Mother, you witnessed this yourself. Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister are not treating me like family at all. What’s the point of me staying? Instead of tipping toes around in this house, I’d rather leave!” Pei Wanyue felt wronged.

“What Young Lady Pei said is rather upsetting. Maybe… Eldest Brother, we should tell the people out there that there’s a thief in the house. Although it’s quite embarrassing, our family’s reputation isn’t that great anyway,” Xie Qiao said while smiling at Pei Wanyue.

“Sure.” Xie Pinggang nodded.

Having a thief at home might make them a laughingstock for a while. If the news spread, not only could Pei Wanyue no longer stay at the Xie Residence, but she would also be unable to enter the academy!

The Chu family had dared to use the jade for discipleship because the Xie family had said that they had lost the jade by accident. However, if it was stolen, how would it be possible for Chu Jian to take responsibility for such trouble since he was educated?

No matter how unwilling he was, he would return the jade. He would even explain to the people how he had obtained the jade. Who would be in trouble by then?

Pei Wanyue would be.

However, Pei Wanyue was living at the Xie Residence. If someone was to really ask more, her act of invading Xie Pinghuai’s courtyard might no longer be a secret.

Therefore, Xie Qiao was scaring her now.

As expected, Pei Wanyue became sensible now.

Xie Niushan was irritated. “Since you’re so eager to go, just go. I no longer care.”

Xie Niushan was in a bad mood now. He did not even look at Ms. Lu and returned to his courtyard directly.

Ms. Lu panicked. She was eager to hit her daughter, but she could not do it seeing Pei Wanyue’s face. She could not stop sighing.

“Eldest Sister, the jade was yours. Now that it benefited someone else instead, you must’ve felt wronged. Just let it out on me,” Xie Pinggang said straightforwardly.

Xie Qiao’s eyelids twitched.

“Eldest Brother’s solution is pretty great. A piece of jade could make her leave the Xie Residence. I guess we’re the ones who’ve benefited.” Xie Qiao smiled.

“I think so too. If she stays, Ms. Lu might sell everything the Xie family has for her dowry if she gets married in the future.” Xie Pinggang mocked.

He despised Ms. Lu’s pettiness.

How long had she been here? She had bought many things for Pei Wanyue.

However, Xie Qiao did not have anything new in her house.

If not for the fact that nobody was allowed to enter Xie Qiao’s house, she might have lost some things!

“Eldest Brother, I’m the one who’s wronged…” Xie Pinghuai interrupted immediately while he added right away, “But it’s my fault!”

“I heard you bought another pair of crickets today.” Xie Pinggang scoffed.

Nothing that happened at home could hide from Xie Pinggang.

Someone had told him that as soon as he got home.

Xie Pinghuai’s face turned pale when he heard that. “It wasn’t me. It was Mother who got someone to buy them for me!”

“Ha, using Mother as an excuse again. Which of your stuff isn’t provided by Mother?” Xie Pinggang glared at Xie Pinghuai with a stern face.

“It really wasn’t me!” Xie Pinghuai was shrieking now.

Xie Qiao glanced at her young brother with pity.

Since her eldest brother knew that Xie Pinghuai had bought something, he definitely knew the story behind it.

He must have thought he did something wrong, so he was teaching him a lesson now.

It made sense. This brat had gotten home from school early and had been seeking trouble himself. Forget it that he had been waiting at home for half a day. He was playing with the crickets…

Although he did not initiate that himself, the behavior was rather infuriating.
