Princess Consort With Deadly Destiny

Chapter 3 First Miss Looks Kind of Weird

‘I think Xie Qiao will be a rough-looking woman. I didn't expect her to look so pretty'.

'Fortunately, he did not look well-meaning, and the rich boys in the imperial city had seen all sorts of beauties before.'

'When a man seeks a wife, he upholds her moral character.'

Xie Qiao did not possess many treasures. After tidying up her belongings, she followed Madam Lu and her daughter down the mountain.

Madam Lu's facial expression turned strange as she sat on the carriage.

“I've never seen a woman like this. It was not that our family could not afford to eat meat, but he decided to be in the same carriage as a pet. It took one and a half months to arrive at the imperial city. How much would it smell if he ate and lived with the animal?” Madam Lu rubbed her nose as if she had already smelled it.

When Xie Qiao went down the mountain, he brought a bamboo box, and no one knew what it contained.

He also brought a big fat rooster and lived with him.

The rooster has brightly colored feathers that shine brightly in the sun. Wherever Xie Qiao went, the rooster would follow him from behind.

“Bu, the first young lady looks a bit strange, but I can not tell you what is strange.” Pei Wanyue frowned slightly, “By the way, his health did not seem good..”.

“Health is not good. I heard your Uncle Xie say that he had an injury since birth.” Madam Lu nodded her head.

“But for a good teenage daughter, why did she choose to stay in the temple? Wouldn't it be better to leave her at home if she's not well?” Pei Wanyue said again.

Madam Lu was surprised, and she thought for a moment. “Saying that he should not meet his family until he is an adult. Otherwise, he might die young.”

Xie Niushan had only mentioned it to her once, and it had never been mentioned again since then.

“I don't know if your Uncle Xie would really appreciate this princess. I've never heard him mention him. He had given nothing to her all this time, as if he had forgotten her. But this time, she urged me repeatedly to bring her back and take good care of her.” Lady Lu went to great lengths to understand this.

Her husband used to be a bandit, so she was a little scared of him.

“The first young lady is very pretty. The moment he arrived at the imperial city, Uncle Xie would now pay more attention to him, even though he initially disliked him, ” Pei Wanyue said softly in a sad and annoyed tone.

Madam Lu was surprised by her words.

Then he shook his head. “Don't worry, she's beautiful outside only. Does he know how to play a musical instrument or chess, write calligraphy and paint? He did not even understand basic ethics. Who's gonna like it? When he arrived at the imperial city, you should know a little how to speak sweetly. Rather than calling him 'Uncle Xie', you better call him Dad. Doing this makes us a family.”

“Call Him Dad? Is Uncle Xie going to be happy to hear it.. ”Pei Wanyue is already mentally prepared for it.

Although Pei's family were good citizens. They are just merchants, not officials.

After his father died, Pei's family had no place for Pei Wanyue. For a trip to the imperial city this time, he would actually seek refuge and live under the Xie family.

“He must be happy. He called you several times before,” urged Madam Lu.

This stabilized the restless atmosphere that Pei Wanyue had experienced earlier.

Xie Qiao held the dried little insect in his hand. He poured it into a small bowl. He watched the big rooster eat deliciously.

“Hah.” After passing through a steep slope, Xie Qiao suddenly sighed.

After a while, he said to the outside, “Stop.”

The coachman outside was stunned and shouted from outside, “What's up, Young Miss? Madam said we are in a hurry today, and we should reach the nearest city at dusk.”

Madam Lu had brought twenty people on this trip.

Originally, this carriage had been prepared for Pei Wanyue, but it was now taken by Xie Qiao after his unexpected appearance.

According to the norm, she should have a maid to help her convey any message. But Lady Lu had no such idea and could only speak directly to the servants.
