The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny

Chapter 618: I Regret It Now

At that moment, Ms. Lu looked at Xie Niushan with some hidden bitterness in her eyes, but she remained silent.

Xie Niushan could not tell that she was pitiful. He directly sat down and drank a few sips of herbal tea. Then, he said to Xie Qiao, “Eldest Daughter, this is the girl from the brothel that I told you about.”

Xie Qiao did not take a closer look at her and responded indifferently.

Ms. Lu was a little nervous.

She and Xie Niushan had been married for a few years. Of course, she knew what kind of woman Xie Niushan liked!

The gentle kind of woman was his favorite!

Was this the new woman that Xie Niushan found? Or was she from the brothel? However, Xie Niushan almost never messed around in the brothel in the past…

“Her 50 taels of silver was stolen by a thief and she had nowhere to go. I asked her and she said that she was willing to come to our house. So, I brought her home. She sings well. If you have time, call her over to sing a few songs. Treat it as a pastime. Just give her two taels of silver a month!” Xie Niushan said.

When he said that, the girl was obviously stunned.

Xie Qiao smiled slightly.

“Father, do you mean to get this person a job in our house?” Xie Qiao asked.

“That’s right.” Xie Niushan nodded.

“Oh, if that’s the case, then let the steward handle it. However, the servants in our house will have to sign the death contract. Did you tell her about it?” Xie Qiao asked again.

Some of the servants in the house signed the life contract. There were three years, five years, eight years, and ten years, but there were shorter ones.

These people were usually adults and had a skill.

However, most of them had a death contract.

It could not be helped. Every family did the same. If there were too many people in the house with a life contract, the Xie family would be like a water tank with a big hole in it. They would not able to withstand it.

Times were like this, and it was not something that Xie Qiao could change on her own.

Xie Niushan really did not expect to have to sign a contract. He looked at the girl and said, “It wasn’t easy for you to redeem yourself. I think it’s better to forget it. Why don’t you find another solution? It won’t be easy for my family to take you.”

Xie Niushan knew what was good for him.

The difference between doing her kindness and harming her was significant. If she really signed the death contract, it would be the same as letting the girl fall into another pit of fire.

He would not do such a wicked thing.

The girl hesitated for a moment and actually knelt. “I have nowhere to go. I’m willing to serve the Master!”

Xie Qiao’s eyebrows relaxed.

Unless an ordinary girl really had no way out, she would not dare to be a slave for the sake of her future generations.

This girl in front of her, how could she have nowhere to go? Yet, she still insisted on entering the residence. She probably had other motives.

Before Xie Niushan and Xie Qiao could speak, Ms. Lu could not sit still, pointing at the girl, she said, “Where did you come from, you little vixen, to be worthy of bewitching the Master? Don’t think that I don’t know what kind of tricks you have in your mind. Isn’t it just that you like the fact that there is no madam in the house?! Do you think you who came from a brothel are worthy of that?!”

Xie Qiao was stunned.

Ms. Lu really could not hold it in.

If this woman were to enter the lowly status, even if she were to become a concubine in the future, she would not be able to become a proper official’s wife.

However this kind of vixen was obviously a bad person. She did not know what she would do to the family. It was better to chase her out!

However, after shouting, Ms. Lu knew that she was meddling in other people’s business.

How could she have the right to meddle in the Xie family’s business now?

She immediately felt wronged. She looked pitifully at Xie Niushan and said, “There’s a saying that goes “Once married, the relationship will last for a long time”. I know I did wrong in the past. I regret it now. Niushan, if you agree, in the future… I will definitely stay by your side. I will never be biased toward the daughter I gave birth to. I will definitely treat the children well and will not spend money recklessly…”
