Chapter 325: Mad Dog Bites
Xie Qiao shivered thinking of those poems.
Looking at these flowers, they were not as pleasant as before.
“When Mr. Sang comes back, don’t tell him that these flowers have been trampled. What do you think?” Xie Qiao asked the little boy.
The little boy nodded quickly.
Of course, he could not tell him!
Mr. Sang loved flowers as much as his life. If he found out, he would definitely split that horse at the stable alive!
Xie Qiao heaved a sigh of relief secretly.
The flowers looked like they had almost recovered. There was no need for her to continue worrying. She could finally get the silver beans back.
If she bought some things to do good deeds, she would not have to worry about not having enough money.
However, at that moment, someone else was filled with worry.
Dong Xiyun’s face was washed with tears. She had never felt so wronged before.
“Sister Dong, don’t be sad. Who knows how Xie Qiao got first place? She’s not a good person. How could she have real talent? Don’t worry. I’ll make sure she leaves dejectedly during the New Year!” Xia Yayun comforted her.
She was at the Peony Courtyard. She really could not stay at the Orchid Courtyard anymore.
She felt tormented for a moment.
The reason being the people there were now on Xie Qiao’s side. They were praising the honor of Xie Qiao’s first place. Who else could they see in their eyes?!
Dong Xiyun’s eyes were a little red and swollen. She said in a hoarse voice, “Sister Yayun, you don’t have to comfort me. Xie Qiao is so smart, how could she lose? Maybe when the New Year comes, you might even be chased away by her…”
“No way! How could I lose to her?!” Xia Yayun raised her voice.
“Although I didn’t expect that I’d always be in first place, I didn’t expect that the person whom I lost to would be Xie Qiao. She has always taken me by surprise. If she wins against you, what’s there to be surprised about?” Dong Xiyun added.
Xia Yayun was silent for a moment.
After a while, Xia Yayun said, “Sister Dong, I know that you are concerned about me. In fact, I am also a little worried. Xie Qiao doesn’t do anything special every time she goes outside the city. However, I got someone to ask the disaster victims that she has come into contact with. Those people treat her very well and say that she’s a good person.”
“Yayun, what if you lose? Young Master Meng initially said that he would marry you if he won…” Dong Xiyun added.
Xia Yayun clenched her fists.
She had never thought of marrying Meng Jifang. In fact, when she was at the stable earlier, she had hated the way he had ganged up with Xie Qiao to bully her.
However, she had to admit that there was no more suitable husband than Meng Jifang.
Even though he was ignorant and incompetent, his status was noble. If the Fourth Prince could ascend to the throne in the future, the Meng family would rise.
“You told me that Meng Jifang’s attitude towards Xie Qiao was quite good. Then… could it be…” Dong Xiyun did not say it out loud, but Xia Yayun understood the meaning behind her words.
Could it be that he had taken a liking to Xie Qiao?
“No, what’s so good about her?!” Xia Yayun said stubbornly.
“Young Lady Xia is also a good person. She looks gentle and calm. That appearance… who among us can compare to her? I thought she’s not smart, but the truth was that she was full of talent. Any man would probably admire her, right?” Dong Xiyun smiled bitterly.
Xia Yayun felt her heart ache.
“How dare she have the nerve to pull ropes with the Meng family?! I will definitely not let her succeed!” Xia Yayun gritted her teeth.
“Sister Yayun, you must not be impulsive. You know, if Xie Qiao is in danger, that Xie Pinggang will definitely bite like a mad dog, right?” Dong Xiyun quickly tried to persuade her. She was nervous and looked very scared.
