Not In Good Health?

Xie Qiao waved her hand and gestured Yuan Rong to back-off.

'My dad is not a very good judge of character, especially when it comes to this housekeeper…'

The housekeeper got big eyes, which meant that he had a bad temper. His thick hair and sideburns implied that he did not have good vision. With his vigorous energy, he must have an evil heart. Moreover, his relatively narrow facial features and sharp-pointed teeth showed that he was a greedy man.

Xie Qiao sighed lightly.

Yuan Rong did not expect to be dismissed just like that.　　

He recalled the time when Ms. Lu was married into the family. He was given a small gift and she had been very polite to him.　

'How dare this eldest young lady not taking me seriously.'

'If she is favored, that is absolutely fine. But this eldest lady had been raised outside. When she returned, the Master and the Eldest Young Master had specially chosen a remote and desolate small courtyard for her to settle in. Where does she stand in their hearts?'

'If she does not know her place soon, she would definitely lose out!'　

"Young Lady, is this place too remote for you?" Chun Er looked worried, and she felt like the Young Lady was losing out.

"Very good." Xie Qiao told the truth, "If a courtyard bustling with noise has been arranged for me, I'll have to change it."　　

Chun Er breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she did not have an unhappy expression on her face.

"I think Da Xiong is a little tired. I will put him in the courtyard to rest." Chun Er said again.　　　　

"Give him a pot of dried insects." Xie Qiao's voice became clear whenever her huge rooster was mentioned.

Chun Er could not help but keep laughing.

"The way you treat this huge rooster is better than you treat yourself!"

Chun Er felt that this was a weird phenomena. But later she discovered that this huge rooster could even recognize his own Master. It made complete sense to her why Xie Qiao treated him so well.

'Dogs that recognize their Master might be a lot, but a rooster that could recognize his Master...

...might be just one of a kind?

'She would naturally want to keep this huge rooster which was so rare.'

Xie Qiao smiled bitterly.　

The reason why she was good to Da Xiong was because she had raised this huge rooster all by herself. On the other hand, her huge rooster drove away evil spirits, and Da Xiong had been fed by her with various potent insects and runes since childhood. His Yang energy was greater than ever. By having him by her side, this would at least guarantee that she could have a good night's sleep.

Xie Qiao's body was actually overwhelmed with fatigue after the long journey.

She lay down on the bed and fell asleep after a while.

When she woke up, Chun Er came to report that Xie Niushan, her elder brother and younger siblings had just returned home.

She was invited to come over for dinner.

Xie Qiao changed into a lotus-colored dress. She looked a bit more energetic in this attire.　　

At that moment, Xie Niushan was together with Ms. Lu and her daughter.　　

"The two of you are back early. Have you seen your eldest sister?" Xie Niushan asked Xie Pinghuai and Xie Xi.　

His voice sounded very fierce, and Xie Ping shrank his head.　　

"No, I just sent someone over and she said that the eldest sister was sleeping, so I didn't want to bother her. I played with this sister first." Xie Pinghuai said quickly.

Xie Niushan turned his gaze on Pei Wanyue.　

Pei Wanyue hurriedly came out and prostrated to Xie Niushan, "Wanyue greets Daddy here."

Xie Niushan was taken aback, "What are you addressing me here?"

Pei Wanyue blushed with embarrassment.

"I asked her to address you that way. She is my daughter. Now that she is following me, she naturally wants to address you as her daddy." Ms. Lu said quickly.　　

Xie Niushan was very happy when he heard this, "That's good. She is really good-looking and sweet."

As he said that, he took out a small dagger from his arms, "Hold this and play with it!"　

"..." Pei Wanyue's hands dropped as she grabbed hold of the dagger. The dagger was actually inlaid with gems, which looked nice. It would be even better for her if the dagger was replaced with jewelry.　　

"Thank you, daddy." Pei Wanyue was very obedient. As soon as she finished speaking, she let out a cough.　　

"What's the matter? You're not well?" Xie Niushan frowned so deeply that a fly could be trapped inside his furrowed brow.
