Chapter 815: Let the Women Go
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xie Pinggang knew that Xie Qiao was quite capable. Since she said that her father was lucky in love, then perhaps…
“If you want to marry again, that’s fine, but you have to be more careful with your judgement. If you marry someone who doesn’t know how to behave, you should move out.” Xie Pinggang was more like a father.
When Xie Niushan heard that, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him. “I’m your father. If you don’t know how to be polite when you speak, then shut your mouth!”
Xie Pinggang was thick-skinned. His expression did not change even after being scolded a little.
“Our family is no longer the same as before. You can’t just get married just because you want to. If you don’t marry well… Think carefully about who will be the Crown Prince’s mother-in-law.” Xie Pinggang’s tone was cold.
In the past, their family background was simple. If their father really liked someone, he could marry the woman and provide for her at home.
However, things were different now. The smaller the family was, the better. It would save them a lot of trouble in the future.
Xie Niushan fell silent for a moment.
“If you really want to marry a woman, why don’t you… find an orphan who doesn’t have parents and siblings? She has to have a gentle and soft personality. We only need a new pair of chopsticks at home. If she can manage the family, let her manage it. If she can’t, don’t force her. Just treat her like a canary,” Xie Pinggang thought and said.
The younger siblings in the family were all grown up now, unlike when Ms. Lu was married into the family. The pair of younger siblings were only seven or eight back then.
Xie Pinggang’s words were straightforward, but when Xie Qiao heard it, she knew that it was a bad idea.
If he were to marry a wife regardless of the other party’s status, the person who entered the family would be the madam of the family. How could he ignore her?
Unless her father took in a concubine. That would be fine as the presence of the concubine would be lower.
However, her mother had given her orders. He could remarry, but he was not allowed to take in a concubine. He could marry someone he liked, but he was not allowed to take in any concubines.
Logically speaking, her mother should not have allowed her father to take in any more wives. However, after thinking about it carefully over the years, she could roughly understand her mother’s intentions.
He could only take one wife each time. The house would be relatively peaceful. However, if he got himself concubines… Her father was unreliable. If he saw someone he liked, he might take a concubine every time he saw one. If he had a harem of concubines, that would be terrible.
Xie Niushan snorted. “I’m marrying a wife, not taking in concubines. You don’t have to worry about it.”
“Sister, why don’t you perform divination for Father to see what kind of wife he will marry in the future?” Xie Pinggang thought for a moment and asked Xie Qiao.
When he said that, Xie Niushan and the others stared at her.
Xie Pinghuai’s mind was in a mess. When he thought of his sister’s mysterious appearance today, he felt that his sister seemed to have a secret.
The reason why he thought so was that his eldest sister had changed a lot.
Sometimes she was especially gentle, and sometimes she was not. Now, he felt that he could not see through her when he looked at her. It was strange. Of course, the strangest thing was the shop that sold things for the deceased. When his eldest sister was in the shop, it was as if…
It was as if she was in her own home. She did not care about the things in the shop at all. She did not even look at them…
Even if she knew the boss, she should not be so impolite, right?
Xie Pinghuai could not figure it out.
Meanwhile, Xie Qiao turned her head to look at her father and said casually, “Father, why don’t you keep a dog? It’s pretty good.”
Xie Niushan’s eyes widened.
However, Xie Pinggang grinned and said, “Elder Sister, are you saying that he won’t marry anyone?”
“Three is enough. It’s already quite miserable for others to have two wives in their entire lives. Yet, you want to marry the fourth one. Father, let the women go. Life is hard.” Xie Qiao’s tone was flat, it was as if the doctor had diagnosed a terminal illness..
