This is completely different from the Master!
They were not fluent in speech, and their attempts to flatter were useless as well. They only knew that this young lady was graceful. She was prettier than all the women in the imperial city, at any time of the day. He seemed to be emitting light. No one can take their eyes off her.
Grandma Wan was carrying Xie Qiao's bamboo basket, while Chun Er was carrying a large rooster.
The other items were not important, so he let the Xie family help him carry them.
They had discussed with the coachman earlier regarding the Floating Pavilion City. Now that they had sent him here, they would turn to take the same path back.
“His own master chose this page. It might be a bit far away, but he thought the place was deserted. There are many pear trees in the yard. Soon, they will be ready to be picked and eaten. You will love this.” The housekeeper said calmly.
Compared to his considerate attitude towards Lu, his attitude towards Xie Qiao was much more straightforward and relaxed.
Xie Qiao simply hummed in response without saying much.
The page is a bit far away.
It reached the farthest northeast corner of Xie's house.
The yard's been cleaned. That's very broad. There are several large open tanks with beautiful water lilies inside. The interior of the house is simple but equipped with adequate furniture. It was equipped with a green tent, a new dressing table, and an empty closet.
Overall, it's quite satisfying.
It also saved them from the effort of renovating and decorating the entire place.
Although there was no need to tear down the entire place, there were still parts that needed to be repaired.
“Is there anything that does not satisfy your taste?” The housekeeper saw him looking around and asked.
“Is there no well on my home page?” Xie Qiao asked.
"There was. There is a small kitchen next to it. You can use it at night if you are hungry. There is a well outside the small kitchen,” said the housekeeper.
Xie Qiao went to study it. He could not help but frown. “Fill this well with sand. Dig a new well where I stood earlier.”
The well and stove should not be placed facing each other. Also, this place was in the Cow Position. Digging wells with this position will not bring good faith for harmony between brothers. This place is indeed a bit remote, but because his family rarely comes here, so it's no problem. However, now that he was going to move on for good, what had to be changed would be changed.
“Fill the well ?!” Housekeeper was stunned.
The other person who followed behind the housekeeper was also dumbfounded.
They thought they were supposed to fill the place with flowering shrubs or greenery, but they did not expect this young woman would fill the well just to rebuild another well.
“Nona, isn't filling the well too much of a hassle? Also, how can this make you uncomfortable?” The housekeeper frowned.
“How many pieces of silver are needed?” Xie Qiao looked back at him.
The housekeeper became mute. "Not much…"
It's just the construction of a well. Although the Xie Household was considered poor among government officials, they were still government officials. How could they not afford such a small expenditure?
“Because the cost is not too expensive, do what I say.” Xie Qiao kept his words cut.
Actually he wanted to cut down those two pear trees as well.
In theory, planting a pear tree in the yard is not a good sign. But in this case, the trees are in an adequate position, but there are some caveats. And also, it was an act of kindness from his eldest brother. Better to let them be what they are.
The hearts of the housekeeper were pounding. This was not his place to speak anymore, so he simply nodded.
“You were by my father's side before? Have you seen my mother?” Xie Qiao spoke softly.
“When I was under the main job, the First Lady was dead. Second Madam was still there back then.” The housekeeper opens.
Second Madam?
Although Xie Qiao had not been home for the past few years, he was still aware of Xie's household internal affairs.
Second mistress, Lin is the biological mother of her siblings. He was forced to enter the mountains and marry his father after his own mother died. After the father made a big fuss over her, she died after giving birth to two twins for her father.
Xie Qiao waved his hand and gestured for Yuan Rong to retreat.
'My father is not a good judge of character, especially when it comes to this housekeeper…'
The housekeeper is big-eyed, which means he has a bad temper. His thick hair and shoots imply that his eyesight is not good. With his powerful energy, he must have an evil heart. Moreover, the appearance of his face is relatively narrow and his pointed teeth indicate that he is a greedy person.
Yuan Rong did not expect to be thrown out just like that.
She recalled the time when Madam Lu had married into the Xie family. He was given a small gift and he was very polite to her.
'How dare this eldest Young Miss not take me seriously.'
'If he's liked, it doesn't matter. But this oldest woman was raised outside. When he returned, the Eldest Master and Young Master had specially chosen a secluded and secluded little courtyard for him to live in. Where does he stand in their hearts?'
'If he doesn't know the place immediately, he will definitely lose!'
“Young Miss, is this place too remote for you?” Chun Er looked worried, and she felt Young Miss was losing.
"Very good." Xie Qiao is telling the truth, “If a page crowded with noise has been set up for me, I have to change it.”
Chun Er sighed in relief when she saw that she did not have an unhappy expression on her face.
“I think Da Xiong is a little tired. I'll put him on the page to rest.” Chun Er said again.
“Give him a pot of dry insects.” Xie Qiao's voice became clear whenever his huge rooster was mentioned.
Chun Er could not help but laugh.
“You treat this big rooster better than you treat yourself!”
Chun Er felt this was a strange phenomenon. But then he learns that this big rooster can even recognize its own Master. It made perfect sense to him why Xie Qiao treated him so well.
'A dog that knows its Master may be many, but a rooster that can recognize its Master…
… Maybe the only one?
'He certainly wanted to raise this very rare big rooster.'
Xie Qiao smiled bitterly.
The reason why he was kind to Da Xiong was because he kept this huge rooster alone. On the other hand, his huge rooster banishes evil spirits, and Da Xiong has been fed by him with various insects and powerful runes since childhood. His Yang energy was greater than before. By having her by his side, at least this would guarantee him a good night's sleep.
Xie Qiao's body was precisely overwhelmed with fatigue after a long trip.
He lay down on the bed and fell asleep after a while.
When she woke up, Chun Er came to report that Xie Niushan, her older brother and her younger siblings had just returned home.
He was invited to come for dinner.
Xie Qiao changed into a lotus-colored dress. He looked more energetic with these clothes.
Back then, Xie Niushan was with Lady Lu and her daughter.
“You two came back early. Have you seen your oldest sister?” Xie Niushan asked Xie Pinghuai and Xie Xi.
His voice sounded extremely loud, and Xie Ping lowered his head.
“No, I just sent someone here and he said that the eldest sister is sleeping, so I don't want to disturb her. I played with this sister first.” Xie Pinghuai said quickly.
Xie Niushan turned his gaze to Pei Wanyue.
Pei Wanyue hurriedly came out and kowtowed at Xie Niushan, "Wanyue greeted Father here."
Xie Niushan was surprised, “What are you greeting me here?”
Pei Wanyue blushed in embarrassment.
“I asked him to call you that. She is my daughter. Now that he's following me, he would certainly like to call you his father.” Madam Lu said quickly.
Xie Niushan was very happy when he heard this, “Good. He is very handsome and sweet.”
As he said that, he took out a small dagger from his hand, “Hold this and play!”
“...” Pei Wanyue's hand fell down as she held the dagger. The dagger was actually encrusted with jewels, which looked good. It would be even better for him if the dagger was replaced with jewelry.
"Thank you dad." Pei Wanyue was very obedient. As soon as he finished talking, he coughed.
"What's the problem? You are not healthy?” Xie Niushan frowned so deeply that a fly could be trapped within his furrowed brows.
