Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Putting aside the betrothal money, dowry, and the money she had to bring to Mengjiabao, the five thousand taels of silver was almost all she had.

She wondered if there would be a gambling den opening when her brother challenged the Shanhai Academy…

If there was not, she could only hold onto the five thousand taels of silver and not have any eggs.

After making the arrangements, Xie Qiao had dinner with her family again in the evening.

After all, they were going to Mengjiabao to pick up their teacher. Therefore, apart from her and Zhao Xuanjing, Teacher Xiao had to go as well.

However, once Xiao Yurong left, he was afraid that Xie Pinghuai would revert to his old self and make mistakes again.

“Cough…” after Xie Qiao took a sip of water, she suddenly coughed.

When she coughed, everyone at the dining table stopped what they were doing.

Xie Niushan furrowed his brows, as if he was about to kill someone. Xie Pinggang’s face was also gloomy, and he did not look like he was someone to be trifled with. Xie Xi’s eyes were filled with worry, while Xie Pinghuai was filled with guilt and anxiety.

“Eldest Sister, why are you coughing again?” Xie Pinghuai did not feel good.

Xie Qiao covered her mouth. “It’s an old problem… I fainted last time… No, I’ve always been like this. Little brother, it’s none of your business.”

She was familiar with this trick.

When Xie Pinghuai heard it, he felt a stab in his heart. “Eldest Sister, it’s all my fault…”

“Sigh…” Xie Qiao sighed, “You already know that you’re wrong. Why would I blame you? However, my health isn’t good. Recently, it’s time for the season to change. With this heat and cold, it’s easier for me to get sick. If It’s serious, I’m afraid I won’t be able to survive this winter…”

Xie Pinghuai’s heart was tormented.

“Sooner or later, I’m going to die. I don’t care about these things, it’s just that…” Xie Qiao had a sincere and loving look on her face, “You’re my younger brother. I haven’t seen you grow up yet… When you grow up, you’ll definitely be a great hero who’s both civil and military, right? It’s such a pity that I won’t witness that…”

As she said this, Xie Qiao pinched herself, and two drops of tears dripped out of her eyes from the pain.

They were family, and they were on the same biological chain. Her good brother would not blame her for bullying him…

“Eldest Sister! Don’t worry, I will definitely not let you down in the future!” Xie Pinghuai quickly promised.

“Ha.” Xie Pinggang sneered at the side.

Xie Pinghuai glared at him angrily.

“I believe in my little brother. Even under the pressure of Eldest Brother, he can make his own way. Your teacher is Xiao Yurong. Even your martial arts master can defeat Eldest Brother, so how bad can you be? But you are a little mischievous… If you can’t hold on, that’s another story,” Xie Qiao said, then she suddenly clutched her chest and could not breathe.

Her face was red and she looked like she was going to die.

She quickly took out a pill and put it in her mouth.

“I won’t be playful. I was still young in the past, aren’t I all grown up now?! Don’t worry, Sister. Your health is terrible. I can’t do anything about it. But I can only promise you that I will work hard. When you’re really dying, go in peace. Don’t worry about me.” Xie Pinghuai immediately patted his chest and said.

Xie Qiao nodded. “Then I’ll go out to recuperate. I won’t be at home. I’ll be back in about a month… I don’t know. Of course, there’s a possibility that I won’t be able to come back at all…

“If there’s a one in a million chance that I’d come back, I hope that when the time comes, I can see my brother making progress… Among his peers, he’ll have the confidence to be proud of his achievements. Yes?”

Xie Qiao looked at him eagerly.

The tears in her eyes flashed with sincerity.

Xie Niushan’s eyes were red.

This biological daughter of his… Sigh, how tragic..
