The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny

Chapter 896: Ignore This Idiot

This person was very talented, so at that time, she had pointed out to the merchants that they had to bring a few books this person wrote when they passed by Mengjiabao.

However, there was no news of him after that.

As time passed, she had forgotten all about him.

Fortunately, her memory was great. Now that she thought of this name, she could still remember it.

“How is your young master now? Has he written any famous articles in the past two years?” Xie Qiao asked the maid leisurely, as if they were talking about family matters.

The maid shook her head. “Young Master usually studies hard in the courtyard and rarely goes home. Most of the time, our Old Master visits him. These years, he has become more modest and hardly makes any appearances.”

“Then how old is your young master? Has he gotten married?” Xie Qiao asked again.

She probed further, but the maid was too embarrassed not to answer.

“Young Master should be 23 or 24 this year, right? His birthday… I don’t know either. The Meng family has never held birthday banquets, let alone a wedding. However, Young Master has already been engaged. The woman is not from Mengjiabao. It’s just that the woman has been mourning, so the marriage is delayed. Young Master has been waiting all this time,” the maid added.

Xie Qiao was deep in thought.

She thought something was wrong.

She did not continue asking. She told the maid to leave and rest for the night.

Early the next morning, Xie Qiao went to look for her junior brothers and gathered them together.

The few junior brothers sat obediently and looked at her politely.

Xie Qiao could now feel the joy of being the eldest senior sister. With only these three junior brothers together, it was quite pleasing to the eye.

It was a pity that her third junior brother and fourth junior brother were not here. Otherwise, her eyes would be blessed even more.

“Why did you call us here, Senior Sister?” Xiao Yurong’s eyes were the purest. Although he “knew his limits”, he still looked at Xie Qiao with… admiration.

“It’s for something important.” Xie Qiao coughed dryly. “Hmm… Do you think there’s something wrong with the Meng family?”

“No? The Meng family is quite good. They’re very well-behaved toward our teacher and me. Did Senior Sister receive any ill-treatment?” Jiang Jinliu immediately replied.

“No. I just feel that this family has a secret.” Xie Qiao had a serious look on her face.

Jiang Jinliu could not help but laugh. “Senior Sister, could it be that a ghoul told you that? Although Old Master Meng is a businessman, he’s literate. When we met on the way, he treated us politely. Now, he has found many cold medicines for Third Senior Brother…

“Did those girls dancing yesterday make Senior Sister unhappy? I hope you can understand this. After all, it’s inevitable for businessmen to pursue profits. In order to secure a good future for the girls in this family, Senior Sister, if you look down on them, just don’t look at them. Don’t get angry and hurt your feelings.” Jiang Jinlu had a bad temper.

“Senior Sister, go on. Ignore this idiot.” Zhao Xuanjing ended the conversation.

Jiang Jinlu was dumbfounded.

He… did not say anything…

She was his senior sister to begin with, and she had been acting weird…

“Don’t worry, I found out yesterday that he’s an idiot, so I won’t take it to heart. It’s just that with his character, it’s worrying to think that he’ll be fighting his cases at the imperial court.” Xie Qiao slapped her forehead, as if she was really worried about Jiang Jinlu.

Jiang Jinlu felt even more helpless.

There was nothing wrong with his personality. His teacher suppressed him and did not let him take the exam because he had a baby face…

It had nothing to do with his personality.

“Can you explain what you said just now?” Zhao Xuanjing returned to the main topic.

“You know human language best.” Xie Qiao smiled kindly at Zhao Xuanjing, then she continued, “This is what happened. I asked the maid yesterday and found out that there’s a young master in this family. He is older than Fifth Junior Brother and about the same age as Third Junior Brother, but we have never met him. According to the maid, this young master was very talented in the early years, but in recent years, he’s still famous, but he… seems to be locked up and hasn’t shown his face at all..”
