The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 286 - Physically Disabled, Mentally Strong

Chapter 286 - Physically Disabled, Mentally Strong

Translating books was actually quite easy for her, unlike inscribing talismans, which required a lot of effort. However, she had been translating so much that her wrist was about to break these few days.
She had worked so hard to make money, yet the payment was deducted just like that!
Xie Qiao's stubborn gaze made the gentleman feel a little embarrassed.
"Well... I'm afraid it won't work. I've calculated a preferential price for you. Moreover, these flowers and plants... belong to Mr. Sang. He has gone on a trip. Before he left, he specially instructed that these flowers and plants, dead or alive, should be kept in his yard. They should be well cared for while they're alive. Once they die, they will be dried in the sun. When he comes back, he will check them one by one.The academy will have to cover this matter for you. Otherwise, if Mr. Sang finds out that you have damaged his flowers..."
The teacher smiled faintly, "He loves flowers like his life. He would kill you."
Xie Qiao was speechless. She felt her heart ache. She pondered and said, "I want to take a look. If I can revive the flowers, is there... no need to deduct the money?"
The teacher looked at her in surprise, "That's true."
"In that case, please give me a few more days. Keep the silver beans for now. If the flowers are revived, return them to me," Xie Qiao quickly added.
When the teacher heard that, he happily agreed.
Revive the flowers?
That was absolutely impossible.
She had gone to take a look. The stems of the flowers were all torn, and it was a mess. Fortunately, the roots were protected, which was why they could be kept for so many days.
However, looking at the leaves turning yellow and wilting, it was going to be over sooner or later.
Xie Qiao said that she was going to see the flowers, but she was in a hurry to go to class. She could only go at noon.
What surprised Xie Qiao was that Xia Yayun still dared go to the academy.
The wound on her face was scarred. It was small, but one could see that it was a snake bite.
"It's really terrible. Our academy already knows about Xia Yayun's incident. Everyone is talking about it today..." Qin Liu sighed helplessly.
After being chased out of the palace by the Empress and never allowed to enter the palace, who would dare to talk to her?!
"Perhaps she's still thinking about the bet with me," Xie Qiao admired her persistence at that moment.
She was simply... physically disabled and mentally strong.
Other than that, she could not think of any other terms that could describe Xia Yayun's "courage"!
Qin Liu hesitated for a moment and thought about it, she said, "Xia Yayun's aunt married into the Meng family. I heard that her aunt seems to want to set Xia Yayun up with Meng Jifang, and Meng Jifang... knew about your bet. I heard that he said something mean to the Xia family..."
Xie Qiao looked at her suspiciously.
She thought Qin Liu seemed to be worried about her.
What did Xia Yayun's incident have to do with her?
"Meng Jifang doesn't care. He said that he would marry Xia Yayun if she beats you," Qin Liu added.
After that, she immediately calmed Xie Qiao down.
Xie Qiao frowned, "Why is he using me?"
"I don't know. Maybe Xia Yayun has been against everything you do lately. Meng Jifang wants to watch a show. He has a temper. Who in the academy would dare to mess with him?" Qin Liu sighed.
Although it was still a competition for Xie Qiao, it would be even more embarrassing if she lost.
Xie Qiao had met Meng Jifang. She knew that person... was indeed a little dumb.
The invincible temper toward the world was indeed not to be trifled with.
"Let's make it a competition, then. It was a bet to begin with. I will not get involved in their marriage. It's up to them," Xie Qiao added.
"It's not the same," Qin Liu looked concerned, "Of course, I believe that you will win. However, Meng Jifang gave 10,000 silver beans and made a request to the academy. He asked the two of you to compete in a one-on-one competition. The competition would be the donation, but it's not as simple as donating 500 silver beans. There are other additional conditions."
This had not been announced, but she had connections in the academy, so she found out in advance.
She could not help but remind Xie Qiao first.
