Xie Niushan snorted when he heard Xie Qiao’s words.

“Your uncle is indeed greedy, but he also wants his dignity. All these years, it was me and Ms. Lu who sent the silver to him. When did I ever ask him to come and take the silver?” Xie Niushan shook his head.

How would his eldest brother come to his door?

Unless the family was so broke that they had nothing to eat!

“Is that so? Then I’ll make a bet with Father. If he pays a visit within two days, then all the money that Father earned will go to… Xi’er. If he doesn’t pay us a visit, I’ll give you 10,000 taels of silver!” Xie Qiao said with a smile.

“Ten thousand taels of silver?” Xie Niushan said with disdain, “You have 10,000 taels of silver?”

He did not even have that much silver!

Xie Qiao was wealthy.

The Fortune Pavilion was not built for free. Now that Master Mo’s reputation was great, fortune-telling required money. Sometimes talismans and dharma instruments were involved, and the price was not cheap either. Even if she could only sell one occasionally, the income was pretty great.

In addition to the previous big clients like Prince Ning Bei and the Li family, as well as the commission given by those ghouls, they were a big sum…

That excluded the betrothal gifts and dowry she had saved for her younger siblings.

She indeed had 10,000 taels of silver.

“I do have the silver, but I can’t tell you how it came about. Father, just tell me. Do you dare to take the bet?” Xie Qiao said gently.

Her expression looked too harmless at the moment.

In Xie Niushan’s eyes, she was like a kitten.

“What’s there to be afraid of? I’m your father. In this world, my words are the most effective. You are just a little girl. How long have you known your uncle? I know his temper better than you do!” Xie Niushan was very proud.

The corner of Xie Qiao’s lips curled up.

She got him.

“All of you are my witnesses,” Xie Qiao said to her eldest brother, younger brother and younger sister.

There was a reason why the money would be given to Xie Xi.

When Ms. Lu was around, Xie Xi was really poor. That was why she had a stingy personality. She thought since Xie Xi loved money so much, it would not be a problem for her to manage the money in the family.

Managing the accounts would also be an advantage. If she could carry it forward, she would be a good housekeeper in the future.

Moreover, she had a lot of money in her hands. When she looked at the money given by others, it did not seem that rare anymore.

What Xie Qiao had was private money. The source… was not right. If she wanted Xie Xi to take care of the accounts, she naturally had to take care of the money his biological father earned.

Xie Niushan always kept his word, so Xie Qiao did not have to worry about him cheating.

On the other hand, Xie Xi was quite confused at that moment.

After Xie Niushan went back to his room to rest, Xie Xi looked at Xie Qiao and carefully asked, “The money that I manage… will always be lost.”

She could not find her own silver.

“How much did you lose? Do you remember?” Xie Qiao asked.

Xie Xi thought for a while and said, “Three hundred taels of silver. I can’t find it.”

Xie Qiao was quite surprised. “This isn’t a small amount, is it? Did Ms. Lu give you so much silver back then?”

Xie Xi shook her head.

“I… earned it myself.” Xie Xi was quite embarrassed. “Now… I still have 900 silver notes.”

She spoke slowly. Occasionally, she sounded like a mute, but she was very clear.

However, Xie Qiao was completely dumbfounded.

She checked the account book. When Ms, Lu was around, she said that she gave Xie Xi 20 taels of silver as allowance every month. However, in reality, these 20 taels of silver included many things…

For instance, Xie Xi’s daily snacks and some jewelry. Many times, Ms. Lu would buy some trinkets and give them to Xie Xi.. However, in reality, the money was not taken from the public account. Instead, it was deducted from Xie Xi’s monthly allowance!
