The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 157 – Hard Life

Chapter 157: Hard Life

To Xie Pinghuai’s surprise, there was someone there when he arrived at Teacher Xiao’s courtyard.

A young man had brought along his stewards. A steward held an expensive gift in his hands. One of them held a wooden tray, and a piece of white jade was placed on it!

Xie Pinghuai had lost a white jade too, so he could not help but glance at it again.

“Discipleship token?” Xie Pinghuai said by instinct.

That young man stood there looking serious. His head was lifted high, as well as his chest. He looked extraordinarily charismatic. He turned his head and glanced at Xie Pinghuai upon hearing that. “I heard Second Young Master Xie has been wanting to make Teacher Xiao your Master?”

“Yes.” Xie Pinghuai did not deny that.

“Although it’s rather difficult, if you manage to do that, you’ll be my Junior Brother.” The young man smiled lightly. “A senior at home obtained this piece of white jade for me. I’m here to make Teacher Xiao my Master today.”

Although Xie Pinghuai was reckless, he did not ask from where he had obtained the jade. After all, there were ten pieces of jade like this.

It would be ridiculous if the jade was the one that he had lost.

This person would definitely become a disciple successfully since he had the jade.

As expected, Teacher Xiao showed up soon. He called the young man to go in.

Xie Pinghuai felt rather upset. If he had not lost the jade, he would not have to kneel here, which was painful. He could even be like that person, being called in by Teacher Xiao as soon as he showed…

The jade…

Xie Pinghuai was still mad about it. He wondered which thief had dared to steal his stuff, torturing him and embarrassing him!

As he thought to himself, Teacher Xiao’s young servant came out again. “Second Young Master Xie, my teacher asked you to go in as well.”

Xie Pinghuai’s eyes lit up when he heard that. “He’s taking me in as his disciple!?”

The young servant glanced at him with a complicated expression.

Xie Pinghuai got up quickly and rushed in directly. He was panting. Compared to the young man who had come with a gift, their difference was like heaven and earth.

“Where’s the Family Mottos of Famous Families that I asked you to copy ten times yesterday?” Teacher Xiao asked as soon as Xie Pinghuai went in.

Xie Pinghuai took a step back, wondering if he could leave now.

What Family Mottos of Famous Families? He had not bothered to copy it!

“You didn’t do it?” Teacher Xiao glanced at him lightly. Subsequently, he picked up the thorny ferule next to him and looked at it gently. However, his eyes were terrifyingly cold when he looked at Xie Pinghuai.

Xie Pinghuai gulped.

“I’ll copy it now…” Xie Pinghuai’s voice was shaking.

“20 times.” Teacher Xiao did not lift the thing in his hand. However, to Xie Pinghuai, it was coming at him. It was dangerous.

“A-Alright…” Xie Pinghuai thought it was just his luck.

His eldest brother bullied him, his eldest sister, who was pretty, bullied him too. Now, there was an unreasonable teacher…

Why was his life so hard!?

Chu Jiang glanced at Xie Pinghuai in confusion.

He thought… Xie Pinghuai was a joke. It was impossible that he would get himself a Master. However, now it seemed Teacher Xiao really had the intention to teach?

If he was not, why would he spend any effort checking Xie Pinghuai’s homework?

Chu Jian said after Xie Pinghuai left, “So has Teacher accepted Second Young Master Xie?”

Teacher Xiao’s tone was calm. “He’s a brat. Ignore him.”

He picked up the white jade as he spoke. After observing it carefully for a while, he showed confusion on his face. “Where did you get this jade from?”

Chu Jian said immediately, “Someone gifted it to my Father…”

Teacher Xiao asked, “Who was it?”

“I-I’ve no idea. There are ten pieces of identical white jades like this in the world. It’s not a lot, nor is it little. I guess someone owed silver, so they pawned this. This humble one is lucky to have obtained it. I immediately thought I’d make you my Master.”
