The Crown Princess Has a Deadly Destiny
Chapter 38

This is not at all like a teacher!

They were not negligent, nor were their attempts to flatter. They only knew that this young lady was graceful. She was prettier than all the women in the imperial city, at all times of the day. He seemed to be emitting light. No one can take their eyes off her.

The Wans carried Xie Qiao's bamboo basket, while Chun Er carried a big rooster.

The remaining items were unimportant, so he let the Xie family help him carry them.

They had discussed with the coachman earlier about the Floating Pavilion City. Now that they had sent him here, they would turn to take the same path back.

“Master chose this page himself. It might be a little far away, but he said the place was quiet. 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 Madam 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 the Xie household.

The page has 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 was quite satisfying.

It also saved them from the effort of renovating and decorating the entire place.

Although they did not 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 looked around and asked.

“Is there no well on my page?” Xie Qiao asked.

“There. 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 opposite. Also, this place was in the Cow Position. Digging a well in this position will not bring goodwill to the harmony among siblings. This place is a bit remote, but because his family rarely come here, after all it is not a problem. However, now that he was going to move on for good, what had to be changed would be changed.

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 lady would fill the well just to rebuild another one.

“Nona, isn't filling the well too much of a problem? 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 was 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 small expenses?

“Because the cost is not too expensive, do what I say.” Xie Qiao kept his words a secret.

Actually, he wanted to cut down those two pear trees as well.

Theoretically, planting a pear tree in the yard is not a good sign. But in this case, the tree is in an adequate position, but not without some warning. Also, it was an act of kindness from his eldest brother. Better to let them be what they are.

The housekeeper's heart was beating fast. It was not his place to speak anymore, so he simply nodded.

“You were on my father's side from before? Have you seen my mother?” Xie Qiao spoke softly.

“When I became the main officer, First Lady was gone. Second Madam was still there back then.” The housekeeper is open.

Second Woman?

Although Xie Qiao had not been home for the past few years, he was still aware of Xie's household internal affairs.

The second woman, Lady Lin was the biological mother of her siblings. He was forced into the mountains and married his father after his own mother died. After the father fussed over him, he disappeared after giving his father twins.
