The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 109 – I’ll Go On Your Behalf

Chapter 109: I’ll Go On Your Behalf

Xie Qiao was stunned upon hearing the name Xiao Yurong. She scratched her nose.

Meanwhile, Xie Pinghuai looked bitter.

How could he be so unfortunate!?

Xiao Yurong was the most intimidating teacher at the Royal Academy!

He was the one who could scold an imperial prince and imperial grandchild, making them feel like cowards!

His ambition was not being an official. He even boasted that he was willing to be an educator for the rest of his life. Therefore, this man would most probably be the next Royal Academy’s dean many years later…

“Eldest Sister, you did great. I’m sure this thing is worth many taels of silver. Let’s assume it’s 10,000 taels of silver. Get this boy to pay you. He’ll pay you at least 50 taels of silver per month. Give him a deadline for the payment. If he doesn’t pay you, I’ll break his legs,” Xie Pinggang added fiercely.

Xie Qiao calculated inwardly.

50 taels of silver per month would mean Xie Pinghuai would have to pay her for 16 years… How big of a grudge would he hold by then!?

“Alright,” Xie Qiao responded happily. “Brother, can you write an IOU? Just in case you forget.”

Xie Pinghuai glanced at Xie Qiao in shock.

Was she not her gentle and weak eldest sister?

As expected, it was just a lie!

Xie Xi ran over as Xie Pinghuai was thinking to himself. She got him ink and paper.

Xie Pinghuai felt as if an arrow shot him on his chest. After he was done writing, he still had to pay Xie Xi two copper coins for running an errand for him…

The reason being that was the rule he had set up when tricking his sister back then in order to get her to run errands for him, so…

Had he known this would have happened, he would have been nicer…

Xie Qiao accepted the IOU happily.

Although it was in installments, she was considered to have made a profit. It was all in good favor, and the benefit was within the family instead of benefiting someone out there.

It was a great profit for her.

Xie Qiao returned to her courtyard to rest in great satisfaction.

Xie Pinggang said nothing much. He was already exhausted as he had been investigating cases the past few days.

As soon as the brother and sister left, Xie Pinghuai looked terrible as he ran to Ms. Lu’s courtyard to be consoled.

He vented everything.

“That Teacher Xiao is very capable. It’ll be great if you can learn from him. However, it’s wrong for your eldest sister to be asking for money from you. I’ll talk to your father when he gets home.” Ms. Lu frowned.

“I’ve already written the IOU. A gentleman keeps his words. If you complain to Father, wouldn’t Eldest Brother kill me? Don’t do that.” Xie Pinghuai shook his head. He just wanted his mother to comfort him. “Mother, Eldest Brother hit my head again today. If this goes on, I might get retarded from his thrashing!”

As expected, Ms. Lu smiled helplessly and patted his head.

She had been raising him for five years. She knew very well of this child’s behavior.

It was unfortunate that she was not his birth mother.

Pei Wanyue was pissed when she saw the loving mother and son.

“Brother doesn’t want to go? I’ll go on your behalf,” Pei Wanyue said directly.

Xie Pinghuai was stunned. He lifted his head to look at her, and his eyes flickered.

“Didn’t you say you don’t want to go? I would really love to check out the Royal Academy, but I’m not an official’s daughter, nor do I have much silver. Without this jade, my life would be hopeless. Didn’t you say that I was your birth sister yesterday? Are you willing to help me?” Pei Wanyue said immediately.

Ms. Lu panicked a little. “I don’t think that’s a good idea. It belongs to Xie Qiao, and Pinggang said it’s for Pinghuai.”

If that devil found out, would he not make a big fuss?

She dared not offend Xie Pinggang.

How scary was that child? He was as big as a bear.

“Mother, I really want to go. Are you really willing to see me living in someone’s shadow forever? You said you brought me to the Imperial City for a good life, what about now? This home isn’t my home, and I don’t even have a piece of jade. They always leave me out when they talk about business…” Pei Wanyue was really crying from feeling wronged.
