The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 211 - So Pretty

Chapter 211 - So Pretty

As soon as Ms. Jia spoke, the expression of Ms. Xin—the youngest brother's wife—changed.

'Sister-in-law sure is cunning to be saying that first!'

"I have four or five nephews from my maternal family. They're stable and reliable, and they're family. If Eldest Daughter marries one of them, she'll definitely live a happy life," said Ms. Xin.

The two sisters-in-law looked at each other. There seemed to be a tinder sparkling between them.

Xie Qiao took a sip of tea as if she did not hear them.

"Is anyone from your maternal family officials?" Xie Pinggang asked coldly. "None of them are officials, and they want to marry a fourth-rank official's direct daughter? No matter how close the family is, there's no need to ruin her future."

Ms. Jia and Ms. Xin looked rather troubled.

The old lady mustered her courage and scolded, "Pinggang, marriage is a big thing. Let your parents handle it. You're just a brother, don't interrupt. Don't be rude."

Xie Pinggang looked even more terrifying now after hearing that. He looked like he was going to eat someone.

"Tell me again, who will handle my sister's marriage?" Xie Pinggang's voice was deep and grim.

When one looked closer, he had a dagger on his waist. It was close to his hand, and he could kill someone any time he wanted.

The old lady panicked from the scare.

The old lady looked for her savior immediately. "Second one, look at your son. Is he here to pray to the ancestors? He's so fierce I wouldn't dare to let him stay!"

Xie Niushan glanced at his son and laughed out loud. "Why are you so timid, Mother? This fellow looks fierce, but he can't really do anything. Even if he's going to hit someone, he won't hit an old person like you. He'll practice with the younger ones at home at most. It's nothing!"

He knew his son. No matter how impulsive he was, he was sensible. He definitely would not kill his own grandmother.

He was wise!

The old lady gulped. She was not sure what to say now.

Yes, she was mad, but there was nothing that she could do.

"Eldest Nephew, don't misunderstand. We're just happy that Eldest Niece is pretty. She's sophisticated, so regular citizens like us can't measure up to her. We were just joking… Don't take it seriously…" Ms. Jia said immediately.

Ms. Xin nodded immediately.

Xie Qiao swallowed a mouthful of tea.

Xie Pinggang scoffed. "I only have one sister. If anyone wants to be my brother-in-law, he must pa.s.s through me first. Whoever dares to mess with her, I'll break their legs and make them crawl for the rest of their lives."

Xie Qiao nodded in all seriousness. "Thank you, Eldest Brother."

The rest felt terrible.

Did they really like Xie Qiao? They merely thought this girl looked weak. If they could make her marry into their maternal family, Xie Niushan would definitely pay for her in the future, right?

He had paid a lot for Xie Qiao to go to school. If she got married, the dowry would be quite hefty, right?

However, they never thought Xie Pinggang would be so fierce and protective of Xie Qiao.

At that moment, the atmosphere was great.

Whenever Xie Pinggang was around, they would say less terrible things.

On the other side, the younger ones gathered.

To be more exact, Xie Mangshan and Xie Congshan's children dragged Xie Pinghuai and Xie Xi to the courtyard to "play".

Xie Qiao sat closer to that place, where she could see them with a glance.

Her sister was crouching slightly as if she was trying her best to hide her hands in her sleeves.

The Xie family's eldest daughter-in-law's daughter said and took action directly, "Wow, Sister Xi'er, your necklace is so pretty! The red things on it are precious stones, right? Can I wear it?"
