The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 401 - Long Life

Chapter 401 - Long Life

When Xie Mangshan and brother heard what the old lady said, they were a little puzzled, "Didn't you stay at Second Brother's house? How did you fall outside? And you fell so hard? Could it be that you're speaking up for that brat Pinggang?"

When the old lady heard that, she could not help but roll her eyes at this silly son.

Who was she siding with? Did these two sons not know?!

If it was Xie Pinggang that did it, she would definitely report him as soon as she got home. How would she be so aggrieved?

"Uncle, ever since Grandmother Xie moved into Master Xie's place, her luck hasn't been too great. She fell at home yesterday. Today, Cousin wanted to take Grandmother Xie out to buy some things. Before getting out of the carriage, she fell twice in a row. Not only did her legs break, she had also knocked off one of her teeth," Jia Huan quickly said on behalf of the old lady.

"Did you really fall outside?!" Xie Mangshan's expression turned grim when he heard that, "Why weren't you careful? You didn't fall yesterday, but today you fell outside like this...."

"Are you still speaking the human language?!" The old lady used her new walking stick to hit Xie Mangshan.

Xie Mangshan knew that he had spoken too harshly. He thought about it and said, "Well… Did many people see it? If no one saw it, you can blame it on them."

"It happened at the entrance of the jewelry store. It was the most magnificent building on the East Street. There were many people around, and then they went to Dusheng Medicine Store..." Jia Huan said on behalf of the old lady.

In other words, with so many pairs of eyes watching, it was impossible to blame Xie Pinggang.

"Then... Mother, why are you home? You should be recuperating at Pinggang's house, right?" Xie Congshan asked with concern.

The old lady shook her head, "That won't do. You guys have no idea. That little girl Xie Qiao is a crafty person. If I were to go back, she would definitely lock me up and not let me see anyone. Wouldn't she be the one to decide what food to give me? I'm already so old, do you want me to suffer so much?"

The old lady thought of Xie Qiao's gentle and sweet voice, but she felt a chill in her heart.

That girl looked perfect, but her thoughts were really vicious!

Xie Mangshan and Xie Congshan were feeling a little irritated at that moment.

The two brothers looked at each other, then looked at the old lady's legs, "The bones and tendons are injured. They won't recover for three to four months at least. We need to take care of the family. I'm afraid we won't be able to take care of you. How about... you bear with it? I think that girl definitely won't dare to do anything to you..."

The old lady shook her head, "Ms. Jia and Ms. Xin can't serve me at home? Do I have to go to Xie Qiao's place to suffer? Before she gets married, I won't go over!"

That girl's fate clashed with hers. If she really wanted to kill her, would she still be able to live?!

The old lady was frightened.

The brothers did not like that, but they knew that the old lady called the shots in this family.

Second brother was ruthless, but he was still filial to the old lady. As long as the old lady lived a long life, the family would still be able to reap some benefits.

"She's just a little girl. Just find a random family to marry her. Her body isn't healthy, and even a good family wouldn't dare to marry such a short-lived woman as a wife. So, even if the family is low, they wouldn't dare to say anything," Xie Mangshan considered it seriously, "We don't have a suitable candidate among our relatives..."

"I know a good one," Xie Congshan said quickly, "She's my future daughter-in-law's brother. She's a vinegar-making man in the city, and her family has a lot of money. They have about a hundred mu of land outside the city. Although he's engaged, I'll talk to my in-laws to cancel the marriage. He would definitely be willing if he's marrying Xie Qiao."

Xie Qiao was the daughter of a general. The dowries would definitely be hefty!
