The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny - Chapter 244

Chapter 244: Chase Them Out

Xie Qiao felt wronged. She tried her best to look as generous as possible.

The silver beans she spent yesterday were all accounted for. The next time she went back to the academy, she would have to go to accounting to pay.

Twenty silver beans for the horse, a table of dishes… 80 silver beans to rent to Teacher Xiao…

Wait, what?!

Xie Qiao stared at that item on the bill, showing that she did not quite understand.

When did she rent Teacher Xiao?!

Xie Qiao’s expression became even more strange.

Could it be that… apart from the Crown Prince, Teacher Xiao was also there yesterday?

‘Rent, rent…’

The more Xie Qiao thought about it, the more nonsense she came up with.

Finally, she could not hold it in any longer.

She leaned her head against the carriage, her expression solemn and her face serious.

Once this Winter Clothes Day was over, many ghouls would return below. Now, they could not possess her, and ghouls from yesterday stopped lingering around her. She did not even have anyone to reason with!

Of course, even if the ghouls from yesterday were not around, there were still other ghouls.

There were very few things on her body that could protect her body, and none of the talismans were left.

The shock and fatigue from yesterday made it difficult for her to breathe, especially the shaking carriage… It was uncomfortable..

Fortunately, they arrived at the Xie Residence not long after. Xie Qiao entered through the side door and returned to the courtyard. After informing Granny Wan and Chun Er, she fell onto the bed.

Xie Qiao’s courtyard was extremely quiet.

As Xie Qiao had mentioned it in advance, the two of them did not dare to make too much noise. They could only wait anxiously for Xie Qiao to wake up.

Xie Qiao slept for a day and a night.

When she woke up, her face was frighteningly pale.

Granny Wan and Chun Er were both frightened.

“Young miss, why don’t we get the doctor to come over and take a look? You look very ill, and you’ve slept for so long…” Granny Wan looked at Xie Qiao as if she was looking at her own granddaughter.

If Xie Qiao had not warned her before she went to bed, she would not have been able to sit still until now.

Moreover, when Xie Qiao was unconscious, she stayed by her side. She knew that although she was unconscious, she did not have a fever, and her breathing was very steady. That was why she was able to restrain herself from panicking and waited.

“I’m hungry,” Xie Qiao said pitifully.

“There’s food! I’ve been warming it on the stove!” Granny Wan immediately responded. Chun Er immediately ran to the kitchen. In the blink of an eye, the food was already placed in front of Xie Qiao.

After washing up, Xie Qiao ate slowly.

“It’s just that the Yang energy has been depleted a lot. I think the weather has been pretty good these past two days. I’ll bask in the sun more later. It’ll be fine,” Xie Qiao said as she ate, “People from the main courtyard didn’t look for me these past two days, right?”

“Madam sent someone to look for you once. I said that you weren’t feeling well and it worked,” Granny Wan said.

As a servant, she could not say certain things.

The madam of the Xie family was indeed insensible.

For instance, when she said that the young miss was not feeling well, if an attentive madam had heard it, she would have sent someone to inquire about it. She might even have sent a doctor over. However, Ms. Lu did not. She only sent someone to ask the young miss to see her when she recovered.

Ms. Lu thought she was high and mighty in the family.

However, she was a mother, and the young lady was a daughter, so Granny Wan could not criticize her.

Xie Qiao did not take Ms. Lu to heart.

When she was at the Taoist temple earlier, she also had the intention of respecting Ms. Lu.

However, after spending some time together, Ms. Lu’s personality really did not get along with hers, so she could not be bothered to waste her effort.

“If they send more people over, just chase them out,” Xie Qiao said again.

With something in her tummy, she felt much better.

Her body also felt warmer.

After eating, Xie Qiao went out to bask in the sun. The warm sun hit her body, she felt she was much more energetic now.
