Princess Consort With Deadly Destiny

CHAPTER 31: The Gift

Pei Wanyue quickly shook his head. He looked a little scared. “Not that. I just had a surprise along the way. It'sit's okay. You don't have to worry, father.”

"Shocked? What have you been dealing with all this time?”

Xie Niushan did not intend to ask any further. He was worried that his daughter who had appeared so suddenly would feel excluded. So he tried to comfort her.

Pei Wanyue stuttered as if she had trouble saying something. His behavior made Xie Niushan even more curious.

"What's really going on?" Xie Niushan's voice sounded dark, as if he was ready to hit someone.

Madam Lu saw her daughter was confused so she said, “When we picked up that brat Xie Qiao, she brought a strange package. We were afraid that it might be suspicious, so we opened it and peeked. We didn't think it was human bones. Then, Xie Qiao forced him to reinsert the skeleton. He's a coward and hasn't experienced the harsh reality of the world, so he's surprised.” Just because of this?

Xie Niushan's brows furrowed.

It's just a bunch of human bones…

“Train a little more. Your oldest brother has stored a specially formulated medicine to process the bones to make them clean and tidy. They just hang in their workroom. You can go in and see it occasionally. After a few more peeks, you won't be surprised anymore,” said Xie Niushan without further ado.

As he said this, Pei Wanyue's face instantly turned pale.

Madam Lu was also stunned.

He had always known that Xie Waist was strange, but he never expected that he would keep a human skeleton in his house!

These brothers!

Just then, Xie Waist sat on the side.

He was one head taller than Xie Niushan. The shape is as big as a bear. Pei Wanyue did not even dare to look at him. Now that he knew she had such a fetish, he was even more afraid to stare at her.

Xie Waist is quite attentive. “Why would a girl want to see such a thing? You will only make yourself sick from shock for no reason.”

Pei Wanyue did not feel better.

This feeling was like a bear standing in front of him, telling him not to be afraid.

Mother said, Xie Waist was sturdy and looked ferocious. Before he arrived, he had tried his best to imagine it. But now that he had seen it firsthand, he felt his imagination was failing.

“Dad, have you prepared a gift for Xie Qiao?” Xie Waist suddenly spoke up and asked.

"Yet? I thought about checking it out after a few more days. Who knew they would be home so soon,” said Xie Niushan, more on himself than anyone.

Xie Waist raised his head lightly. “I don't either. My allowance this month is over. Lend me a little, Father.”

“I won't lend you anything! Just go! I don't have much silver either!” Xie Niushan rolled his eyes, suddenly feeling his hands empty. He felt himself a little troubled.

He's poor.

Being an official requires a lot of money!

Only this rotten house and rotten property have depleted his entire treasury. The rest to feed this group of leeches. He didn't even have enough money for two better sips of wine. Every month he had to work hard to earn money, and he did not dare to spend the slightest money!

Xie Niushan and Xie Waist gazes were fixed on Xie Xi at the same time.

Xie Xi and Xie Pinghuai were both just 12 years old this year.

Xie Xi immediately lowered her head. “No money, I..”.

“I don't have either!” Xie Pinghuai echoed.

“Pinghuai has it.” Xie Xi's head lowered, muttering.

“...” Xie Pinghuai immediately jump backwards. “You can't take my silver. My mom just gave me this! They haven't even been with me long enough to warm up!”

“Hehe. Even if you hold a stone or silver in your hand for 10 days or half a month, the temperature will also not be too hot. As a younger brother, you should respect your brother.” Xie Waist stand.

Like carrying a chicken, he picked up Xie Pinghuai and took a look at her clothes. After flipping through it, he chose two silver banknotes worth 50 pieces of silver each.

“That's enough, Dad. Each piece of us. If we don't have a gift, let's give the money directly. None of us will outperform the others.” Xie Waist directly threw half his money.

“How about me..” Xie Pinghuai's eyes are glazed.

Xie Pinghuai was angry, but he did not dare to vent his anger. He looked angry, but he was a bit of a coward.

His mother gave him silver when he got home!

Xie Waist was very satisfied, whereas Pei Wanyue looked somewhat confused.

Are they really his father and brother? He was also there, so why wouldn't they give him a welcome gift?

50 taels of silver is better than a cold dagger, isn't it?

However, Madam Lu was overjoyed.

To him, it was not just a little dagger. Her husband had almost no other hobbies other than violent activities. Xie Niushan had obtained that dagger when he was still a bandit. The precious stone on it was extremely precious, so it could be sold for at least 1,000 taels of silver!

However, what did they give Xie Qiao?

Silver records?

Miss Lu's eyes smiled. She looked affectionate as she patted Xie Pinghuai on the head and said, “Mother will give you more while we are at home.”

Xie Pinghuai grinned when he heard that. "Good!"

Xie Waist snorted at Xie Pinghuai. The latter hid his head from fear, and just as he was about to speak, Xie Qiao entered from the outside.

Everyone looked to see.

Xie Niushan's eyes were wide open and sparkling. He immediately raised his leg and approached her. “First princess? You are my daughter?!”

Xie Qian's eyelids twitched.

Xie Niushan had already pressed his shoulder, and his eyes were as wide as a bull's eye. “Ck, tsk, tsk. Only I can give birth to a beautiful woman! A bad boy said that my daughter would definitely be as big as a bear yesterday. He even said that I would have to pay more dowry to be able to marry my daughter! Look at you, who can compare to you!?”

Xie Niushan had pride written all over his face.

Xie Qiao rolled his eyes without a sound.

Xie Waist stood up and walked towards him at that moment.

It seemed like there were two walls standing beside Xie Qiao right now!

His eldest brother was at least 2.1 meters tall. Forget that he was tall; he was also muscular. The muscles in his body looked extremely frightening, while his skin was tanned. One cannot look at him for too long.

Now, look at his father…

He's been alive for years. Other than sending letters home every year, Xie Qiao only met his father once when he was born.

When his mother died then, his father's face was grim, leaving a deep shadow.

She had just transmigrated into a fetus back then, so Xie Niushan left an impression that was too deep on her. Now that he looked at her, he thought this man was around 40 years old now. He no longer ruined the scene like before.

“Dad, did that old Taoist grandfather, Mo Lingzi, kidnap him? He doesn't look like one of us.” Xie Waist is quite relevant. He knows what his family members look like.

Xie Niushan was stunned at first, then he became furious. "Omong empty! Look at his nose and eyes. Aren't they similar to mine!?”

He knew that this was his son just by looking at him!

“Dad, can you stop humiliating your daughter?” Xie Qiao said helplessly.

Xie Niushan was stunned for a moment, which made Xie Waist happy. “True, you are my sister. That's right!"

Xie Niushan snorted.

“The oldest brother,” exciting Xie Qiao.

“Good, so glad you're home.” Xie Waist attitude became calmer after having fun.

Xie Niushan seemed to have remembered something, and his smile was no longer as bright as before.

“This is your brother and sister. Both are useless,” said Xie Niushan.

Xie Pinghuai and Xie Xi quietly observed Xie Qiao.

The reason for that was because they had only heard of him, but they had never seen him. So, Xie Qiao was a stranger to them.

They exclaimed obediently, “The oldest female brother.”

Xie Qiao nodded and took out two things from his embrace. “This is our first meeting, this is for you.”
