Chapter 438 - Senior Aunty
Xie Qiao was telling Master Qiu that Zhou Kaiyun was no longer a n.o.ble person. He was only a criminal.
Unless he could make a contribution that could remove that crime, he could only live an ordinary life.
It was best for an ordinary person not to have such resentment in his heart.
"Will the world give in to him just because he looks pitiful? Should he vent his resentment on others just because his mother pa.s.sed away? This isn"t right, Dean.
"You think he"s innocent because he was implicated by the Zhou family.. Dare I ask, this kid dare not do anything in front of my Eldest Brother, but he glared at me and my Younger Brother at the academy. Isn"t he also implicating the innocent?" Xie Qiao liked to reason.
Master Qiu was shocked.
Xie Qiao... was right.
This child had always felt wronged, but he had never thought that Xie Qiao was only Xie Pinggang"s sister. She was not the one who exposed the big crime. What he did at the academy earlier... was wrong.
"It"s my fault for not teaching him well," Master Qiu sighed.
Looking at the child again, he did not know whether the Xie siblings were right or wrong.
The child had not cried like that since his mother had pa.s.sed away. He always glared at people in a creepy manner, unlike today, he was crying, shouting, and scared.
The doctor said that it was easy to get sick if one was depressed. If one had pent-up emotions, it would be better to vent them out.
With that said, the Xie siblings could be considered to have untied a knot in the child"s heart.
"Today"s matter was caused by the child"s rashness. I"ll pay a visit to apologize another day," Master Qiu said. He looked much older and stood up tiredly, preparing to leave.
"Since you"re already here, Master Qiu, my... Senior Aunty is looking for you about something," Xie Qiao lowered her head slightly and said softly.
Xie Pinggang and Master Qiu looked at her with puzzled expressions.
"Your Senior Aunty?" Xie Pinggang was stunned for a moment. He thought for a moment and said, "That... Taoist master?"
Xie Pinggang knew that Xie Qiao could see ghouls, and he also knew that she often hung out with that Taoist master. However, why was this Taoist master looking for Master Qiu?
"Master Qiu, my Senior Aunty can communicate with both worlds," Xie Qiao said simply.
Master Qiu did not think of his daughter. However, since Young Lady Xie had spoken, it would not be appropriate if he did not meet her since he was already here.
He nodded in agreement.
Zhou Kaiyun cried until he fell asleep. Master Qiu then asked someone to carry him back to the carriage.
He was waiting in the main hall.
"Your Senior Aunty is staying in our house? Why didn"t I know?" Xie Pinggang frowned.
"She just happened to be here. Senior Aunty Mo will come over in a while. I... might have to run some errands for her. Eldest Brother will help me entertain Senior Aunty," Xie Qiao braced herself and said.
After saying that, she returned to her own courtyard, changed into Mo Chusheng"s clothes, and put on a simple makeup on her face.
About an hour later, she showed up.
Xie Pinggang asked someone to serve tea.
He knew Mo Chusheng. Recently, he had also been going to the Fortune Pavilion. Mo Chusheng was the owner of Fortune Pavilion.
When Master Qiu saw Mo Chusheng, he was very polite.
"May I know why is Master looking for me?" Master Qiu"s mood had already calmed down at that moment.
Xie Qiao had an unfathomable expression on her face, "Naturally, it"s for your daughter."
"My daughter?" Master Qiu"s heart skipped a beat, "Master, my daughter has already pa.s.sed away. I don"t quite understand what you"re saying..."
"Although your daughter has pa.s.sed away, she still has some last wishes. This penniless priest is fated to meet her, so I"m here to fulfill her wishes," Xie Qiao added.
