The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 732 - Receiving Gifts

Chapter 732: Receiving Gifts

Xie Qiao could understand Xiao Yurong’s behavior.

He was worried that her family did not know what was good for them and would use the other treasures as trash to balance the table.

“Teacher Xiao is already treating you well. If our father had the knowledge and he’s teaching you, ferule wouldn’t be the only object used to teach you.” Xie Qiao glanced at her stupid brother and did not sympathize with him at all.

Who asked him to be a naughty child?

Xiao Yurong was a standard gentleman. He studied poetries, books and had a lot of patience. However, he was very picky about Xie Pinghuai…

It was entirely because her brother was a little stubborn.

Now that he was with Xiao Yurong, he was forced to read many books. However, how many of the things in those books had he really remembered?

“Sister, I really don’t understand. What’s the use of reading?! All I need is my fists?! Besides, you will be the Princess Consort in the future. When the Emperor dies and my brother-in-law ascends the throne, you will be the Empress! With you protecting me, no one would dare to lay a hand on me, right?!” Xie Pinghuai had an ambitious look on his face.

When Xie Qiao heard that, she chuckled. “With me protecting you, what are you going to do?”

“Hehe.” Xie Ping smiled smugly. “When that time comes, my pocket money will increase a little, right? It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t. I’m the Crown Prince’s brother-in-law. There will be plenty of people who want to give me money…”

Xie Qiao was stunned. “Plenty of people? Has someone already given you gifts?”

“How’s that considered a gift…” Xie Pinghuai curled his lips and immediately stopped talking.

All of a sudden, Xie Qiao gave him a kick in the calf.

With a thud, he fell to his knees.

Xie Pinghuai had been practicing his kicking techniques as well, but he did not pay attention just now. He did not expect Xie Qiao to take action, so he failed to react and his knees went weak.

“Eldest Sister! What are you doing?!” Xie Pinghuai said with a bitter face.

Xie Pinggang and Yu Xian looked over as well.

“Tell me, what did you take from others?” Xie Qiao said slowly, but her words made Xie Pinghuai feel a chill run down his spine.

“Nothing, nothing much…” Xie Pinghuai buried his head.

“You and I are not from the same mother, and we have not been together since we were young. I can treat you well, but I can also get you to spend the rest of your life in prison. I will not allow others to step on my dignity and embarra.s.s me. My good brother, if you don’t tell me the truth, I am afraid I will have to dig a hole in the ground and bury you. I will end this once and for all.” Xie Qiao said coldly. The way she looked at Xie Pinghuai was indeed cold and distant.

Xie Pinggang frowned. “What did you do?!”

Xie Pinghuai knelt and took two steps back. “I didn’t do anything! Someone wanted to make friends with me and acknowledge me as their boss. He gave me some silver beans, and I secretly bought some crickets… But I didn’t have time to play. I had to study and practice martial arts. Where would I find the time…”

Hearing this, Xie Pinggang kicked Xie Pinghuai in the chest.

This was not the first time he had beaten him. He was familiar with it.

“Y-You b*stard have even learned to accept bribes?! Which hand did you take the bribes with?! Show me, and I’ll chop it off!” Xie Pinggang was furious.

Xie Qiao changed her tone, “You bought crickets? Why didn’t I see It? Your every move is watched by Teacher Xiao in the academy, and Master Yu and I at home… Where are the crickets hidden?”

Xie Pinggang also reacted.

The corners of Xie Pinghuai’s mouth were dry. If he had known earlier, he would not have said anything!

He took out a house deed pitifully, “I-It’s a gift… But I haven’t been there yet. I really… don’t have the time.”
