Fractious Legitimate Daughter - C188
“Fine, if you want to stay, then stay by my side. It’s just that, in the future, you have to think about everything and have a pair of sharp eyes. You should be able to see what’s wrong!”
Hearing Xie Wanqing’s words, Yue Xin felt even more relieved and agreed in a hurry. Seeing Yue Xin like that, Xie Wanqing sent him packing.
Looking at Yue Xin’s back figure, the little girl was truly frightened by Xie Wanqing, and could hold back the fear in her heart, but she was extremely happy, she only knew how to treasure it after losing her life, these words were not wrong, she thought that Yue Xin would probably study well beside Xie Wanqing.
Looking at the time, it was time to go to Xie Kai’s study room. After changing her clothes, she brought Yue Xin to Xie Kai’s study room.
When he entered the study room, he saw that Xie Kai was in a rare mood of elegance. At this time, he was drawing a painting on the table and he looked very focused, to the point that he did not even notice Xie Wanqing entering the room.
Xie Wanqing also lowered her footsteps. When she walked closer, she realized it was a painting of mountains and rivers, but the brushwork was so vigorous that layers of clouds and mist formed. Xie Wanqing secretly compared it to herself, and realized it was really petty.
It was his first time seeing Xie Kai draw and he actually did it so well. Xie Kai only waited for Xie Wanqing to walk in front of Xie Kai before laughing: “It’s time to leave school!”
“Un, this is my first time seeing my father draw a painting. My father’s painting is really beautiful!” Xie Wanqing looked up at Xie Kai, the smile on her face almost overflowing.
As Xie Wanqing said this, her small hand carefully touched upon Xie Kai’s words, “Daddy used to not give me any pointers when I was looking at her painting, could it be that you are intentionally hiding it from me?”
Xie Wanqing curled her lips, her entire face was filled with unhappiness. Xie Kai looked at her as if she was just an adorable child, and gently caressed Xie Wanqing’s head.
“Why are you in such a hurry? You’re only nine years old, father’s painting was much worse than yours back then!”
What Xie Kai said was indeed true, it was fine as long as he learned it, but it looked good as long as he passed. However, Xie Wanqing became more and more serious as he drew, and it was naturally getting better and better.
This was something that even Xie Wanqing hadn’t expected. Her current transformation was indeed something that she could handle easily, and even Xie Wanyun couldn’t compare to him. However, looking at Xie Kai now, he realized that he was really lacking by a large margin!
“Dad taught me how to do it in the evening. This goose is really good at painting. Even the goose can’t do it no matter how hard it tries!” Xie Wanqing saw that Xie Kai had stopped writing and was holding Xie Kai’s hand and shaking it non-stop.
“Alright, I’ll teach you when I’m free. Go sit over there. Daddy will be reading the document now!” Xie Kai had not seen Xie Wanqing for a long time, but he was still worried about him, so his current manner of speaking was filled with love.
“Alright!” “Yes.” Qing Shui nodded. He sat down at a small table nearby and continued copying the scriptures he had brought.
Even when the two of them were doing their own things, they seemed very natural, unlike Xie Wanyun who seemed to be doing it intentionally. This was probably Xie Wanqing’s greatest advantage.
Xie Wanqing left when it was time to eat dinner, “It’s been a long time since you last seen the old master, young miss, why don’t you stay in the old master’s room for a while longer?”
asked while helping Xie Wanqing with the dishes. Yue Xin felt that if they did not go to Xie Kai’s side after such a long time, Xie Wanqing and Xie Kai would definitely leave, so she should stay in Xie Kai’s room for a while longer.
“If we stay there for too long, wouldn’t it be the same as someone who likes to fight for father’s favor? Do you think father can’t see anything?” Even if Daddy likes me, it’s just a temporary matter. Tomorrow, he might have gone to favor with Big Sister, so who can say for sure? But I didn’t mean to welcome him, I just made Daddy feel like I understand! ”
Since Xie Wanqing had said so, Yue Xin nodded her head repeatedly. Xie Wanqing’s meticulous thinking was indeed worthy of Yue Xin learning, so Yue Xin did not expect it to be at this level.
“Miss is right, but why did Miss expect that Eldest Miss would go to Master’s study and be persuaded!” Yue Xin became more and more confused, she only felt that Xie Wanqing’s information was extremely detailed, and was something she could not compare with!
“I have seen the methods of the Concubine Fang, how can I not guess it? As for the reason why that Smothering Gourd like Xie Wanyun was able to get hold of father, I think it was because she was being too attentive to her that she advised him!”
When Yue Xin heard that Xie Wanqing had always called Xie Wanyun big sister in the past, she couldn’t help but be a little surprised to hear the name Xie Wanyun directly used to refer to her as Xie Wanyun.
Xie Wanqing looked into Yue Xin’s eyes, and said seriously: “Yue Xin, one of them is my half-sister Big Sister Zither Sound, while the other one is not my biological mother. They both want to harm me, so you just need to remember this!”
Yue Xin seemed to have already guessed it, and was not as surprised as Xie Wanqing thought she would be. She only replied indifferently, and followed beside Xie Wanqing for a long time.
“Therefore, if you have anything to say in the future, just say it. There’s no need to remind me in the dark!” As Xie Wanqing said this, she patted Yue Xin’s hand. The master and servant pair no longer spoke, only the sound of their food colliding with a blue and white porcelain bowl and chopsticks.
At night, Xie Kai had already dealt with the matters of public service for an entire day. Looking at the sky outside wasn’t considered too late, but that layer of doubt in his heart had instead been obscured for an entire day.
On the surface, Concubine Fang was the same for her two daughters. Then, how big of a difference would there be behind the scenes?
It was not that Xie Kai did not hear the rumors outside, but he felt that these rumors were not worth believing. The back of his hand was covered in meat, how could Concubine Fang treat him badly?
As for the matter of New Year’s Eve, Xie Kai also felt that it was all Xie Wanyun’s doing.
However, with all of these things added together, and with the fact that he had eaten that same thing today, Xie Kai felt that something was amiss just thinking about it.
Before, when he went to Concubine Fang’s room, he only wanted Concubine Fang to learn how to educate her daughter. But now, he couldn’t sit still any longer and wanted to ask Concubine Fang in front of him.
That night, Xie Kai came out of the study and didn’t return to his room, but went to Concubine Fang’s room. Concubine Fang was in a daze, not knowing what to do, probably thinking of how to deal with that one with alcohol.
Even the sound of Xie Kai entering the door was not heard, he only stared blankly at the pots, “What are you thinking about?” Xie Kai’s voice wasn’t loud, but Concubine Fang still trembled when she heard it.
When he turned his head again, he saw that Xie Kai was already in front of him, so Concubine Fang squeezed out a smile on her face, “Since I have nothing better to do, I just like to think about random things. I have seen my old master!”
“Un, get up!” Xie Kai sat across from the Concubine Fang and looked at the bowl of tea in his mouth.
In the end, Xie Kai, whom he had doted on before, still remembered that Concubine Fang always liked scented tea.
“The old master has not come to see me for a long time and is feeling bitter in his heart. It just so happens that he wants to drink something bitter!” Concubine Fang said with a self-deprecating smile on her face. Xie Kai couldn’t help but be moved when he saw this.
The Concubine Fang was the person who could speak the best. With just a few words, she was able to lead Xie Kai to feel guilty, as though Xie Kai was the only one who knew how to do things, even if he did not come to the Concubine Fang’s room.
“I’ve been busy these past few days. I’ve indeed neglected you!” Xie Kai patted Concubine Fang on the shoulder, and then sighed, and Concubine Fang slowly sat opposite of Xie Kai.
“I understand, but it’s been a long time since I’ve been here. I’m sad!” Tears welled up in Ye Zichen’s eyes as he spoke. It seemed like he didn’t know how wronged he was in his heart.
“Okay, am I not here?” Only then did Xie Kai speak a soft word and the Concubine Fang crawled into Xie Kai’s embrace. How many men could endure such an attitude?
“I heard that you don’t want her in my study?” Xie Kai was moved when he saw Concubine Fang, but he still retained a bit of rationality and did not forget his purpose for coming to Concubine Fang’s room.
Concubine Fang was originally prepared to follow Xie Kai and his wife, and would let Xie Kai stay in his room to rest tonight.
This person was truly capable, unlike the Madame Ye, who was naturally honest. Every time Xie Kai came, it was as if his soul was drawn in, because the Concubine Fang was young and beautiful.
Just by hearing that, Concubine Fang’s face changed. What she had said to Xie Wanqing just now had reached Xie Kai, when there was clearly no one else in the room!
However, after being stunned for a moment, Concubine Fang immediately reacted and squeezed out a smile, “I was worried that Sangqing would be young and immature, so how could this old master’s study room be a place for a little girl like Sangqing to stay? In comparison, Sangyun is very quiet and sensible, and today I came to miss my father, so I agreed to it right away!”
Xie Kai nodded his head, for some reason, the entire room of the Concubine Fang was filled with thoughts about what to do, and his consciousness was a little blurry, so he naturally did what the Concubine Fang said, causing him to be coaxed and tricked by the Concubine Fang.
