The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny

Chapter 609: Can’t Repay Me for Saving His life

Since her father did not act recklessly, Xie Qiao did not mind that he spent some money to make himself feel better.

She also understood that his father had become a bandit when he was over ten years old and was used to acting recklessly. Now that he was an official, he was restrained everywhere and was even looked down upon by others. He could not help but feel aggrieved.

If it was not for the sake of his children and descendants, he would probably rather go to the top of the mountain and become the overlord than be a pushover in the capital.

Therefore, she usually gave in to her father.

“There are so many scheming people in the capital that I can’t even count. Father, you’re a little silly. It’s very easy to deceive you. It’s true that you’re doing this out of kindness, but have you investigated the background of that person?” Xie Qiao asked slowly. She seemed to be very reasonable.

Xie Niushan frowned. “She’s just a little peasant girl who was sold by her father.”

“What a coincidence. She actually looks like Ms. Lin.” Xie Qiao did not think too much about it.

The world was so big. It was normal for people and things to have similarities.

“They both looked stubborn and pitiful. They were forced to serve others, yet they can’t squeeze a smile on their faces. This is the same when Ms. Lin first saw me back then,” Xie Niushan added.

Ms. Lin had given birth to a pair of children for him, so he remembered this.

Xie Qiao did not say anything else.

Nevertheless, she still did not give him any silver.

However, Xie Qiao could faintly smell the reek of alcohol on her father’s body…

“Didn’t you run out of money? Where did you get the wine to drink?” Xie Qiao asked with a frown.

Although there was alcohol at home, other than the ones brewed in her own courtyard, they were all ordinary alcohol. Naturally, they did not have the… fragrance of flowers and fruits in them.

At the mention of this matter, Xie Niushan grinned. “My Daughter, I have found you an outstanding husband! That guy paid me respect with this wine!”

“Cough!” Xie Qiao almost could not catch her breath.

She quickly patted her chest to calm her breath. “What did you say?”

“During the few days when you were not around, it was all thanks to that guy who paid me respect. He treated me to a meal and gave me fruit wine. He’s really not bad.” Xie Niushan laughed, “This person is also eager to learn. I asked him to learn how to dance with a saber, and he really did it! Although he didn’t do it well, he was sincere! He’s really a good child.”

Xie Qiao sat down.

She was worried that she would faint.

Xie Niushan looked at his daughter’s angry look and quickly said, “Don’t worry, I didn’t offer the betrothal. I know that I have to wait for you to come back before we decide…”

Xie Qiao gulped two mouthfuls of tea.

“Father, you didn’t agree to the marriage, but you accepted his gifts?” Fortunately, Xie Qiao did not have a knife in her hand.

“It’s not really a gift. That guy said that he can’t repay me for saving his life. He’d give me some gifts as a token of his gratitude…” Xie Niushan looked at Xie Qiao angrily, his voice also became softer. “It’s just some wine… and that kid was worried that I would get drunk, so he only gave me some fruit wine. It’s no different from sweet soup…”

Speaking of which, he still had some complaints!

“What life-saving grace?” Xie Qiao asked with a frown.

“He’s the graduate that someone impersonated…”

“Wen Lancheng?” Xie Qiao’s brows relaxed. “Father, fortunately, this person isn’t a liar. Otherwise, if this wine poisoned you to death, you would have met the King of Hell by now!”

She knew that Wen Lancheng was the top scorer in finance.

However, she did not expect that this person would actually come knocking on her door?

“Since this person wants to give a gift of gratitude, then how did it end up in your mouth and become your future son-in-law?” Xie Qiao was very puzzled.

“He wholeheartedly wants to marry you. These days, I have also been carefully observing him. This person is just a little weak and doesn’t have any other shortcomings. He has the right etiquette, he’s not bad looking, and he knows a lot. I don’t understand a single word coming from that person. I heard that you have met with that imposter earlier. I thought you must be satisfied with his appearance…” Xie Niushan was now very clear-headed.
