Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xie Pinggang scanned Xie Qiao from head to toe and sighed.
“If you don’t eat more meat to nourish your body and marry the Crown Prince later, how are you going to have children?” Xie Pinggang was really worried. He turned
around and called the steward. “Cook more good dishes today and make them more sumptuous.”
“Yes!” The steward was very happy.
Xie Pinggang looked at the excitement of the servant and for a moment, he had mixed feelings.
His eldest sister was not around these days, so the family did not have much money.
Of course, compared to ordinary families, the family was considered luxurious. However, compared to the other official residences, the difference was like heaven and
earth.
Moreover, before Xie Xi took charge of the residence, Ms. Lu had managed the house for several years. She was a little too generous to everyone in the residence.
She was not like the stingy Xi’er.
Xie Xi did not treat the servants harshly and treated them the same as before. However, it was different for him and his father.
The amount of alcohol was half of what it used to be. Every day, there were at most two meat dishes on the table. The rest were vegetarian dishes and some fruits and
snacks…
However, those were not filling. Which man would like that?
tt was the meal that Xie Xi had arranged after asking the doctor about it.
Her intentions were great, but he was so big and he was only eating a tiny bit of meat every day. He was hungry everyday. These days, he had spent a lot of his private
money to buy meat outside to add on his meals.
n the past, when he asked the steward to arrange for the kitchen to cook more good dishes, the steward was already in a difficult position. He insisted that Xie Xi, that
stinky girl, would not agree.
However, now, when his sister was home, there was no excuse at all!
“You should stay home. It’s sad and boring to have one less person to eat with,” Xie Pinggang said shamelessly.
“I didn’t eat with you guys in the past either, right?” Xie Qiao replied casually. She had a small kitchen. Other than the occasional gathering with her family, she would
always eat with Chun Er and Granny Wan.
When Xie Pinggang heard that, he immediately glared at her fiercely. “I’m your Eldest Brother. Just listen to what I say!”
“Eldest Brother, have you forgotten what my fate is?” Xie Qiao did not know why he was so stubborn.
When Xie Pinggang heard that, his heart sank. He was in a bad mood.
Her fate was not easy to change. Blood ties were bound together, so the fate was lethal.
It could be suppressed by talismans, but the talismans would be used up as well.
“What will you do if you give birth to a child in the future? It won’t be gone after you give birth, right?” He suddenly thought of a very important point and began to worry.
Xie Qiao was startled.
This matter…
She had never thought of it before.
Her heart became heavy. “I don’t know either. Eldest Brother, what do you think? The one I’m marrying is the Crown Prince. If I can’t give birth to a child…”
The husband and wife would not be in harmony.
It was easy for members of the imperial family to take in concubines, right? It would be quite annoying if concubines were taken in one after another.
“But it doesn’t matter. My body is not good and I can’t give birth. If my life is terrible, then I’ll just hide. When I become a Taoist master, I’ll say that I’m praying for the
imperial family. Zhao Xuanjing will give me some face and agree to it, right?” In the blink of an eye, Xie Qiao came up with a solution.
“You’re even calling the Crown Prince by his name now?” Xie Pinggang was really angered to death by this young lady. “There are only a few months left until the marriage.
If others hear what you call him, those grannies sent by the palace to teach you will be punished. Moreover, don’t you have any feelings for the Crown Prince? You’re about
to get married and still want to become a Taoist master. If the Crown Prince finds out, you would lose favor before you get married!”
Xie Pinggang thought that this silly sister of his was not suitable to enter the palace and become the Princess Consort, right?.
