Chapter 1075 - Not a Big Deal
Chapter 1075 Not a Big Deal
The horses were a little restless. Fortunately, the young masters knew to restrain them properly and quickly pacified the horses.
They had thought that Young Lady Xie would explain.
However, she did not.
With a calm expression, she said to Second Young Lady Xie and the coachman, “Bring the carriage directly to my courtyard and get Chun Er put the things away.”
Since her eldest brother was here, she had to hide the gold first so that he would not take it from her.
If she brought them back to the courtyard first, Xie Pinggang would not be able to do it in front of her. She would lock the things in her private vault. No matter how unreasonable Xie Pinggang was, he would not do it.
She was not as easy to bully as Xie Xi.
Moreover, she would bring up Mo Chusheng’s identity later. If she said that she and Mo Chusheng shared this thing, Xie Pinggang would naturally be obedient.
After all, they were siblings by blood. She knew the morals of bandits. If she did not guard against him, who else would she guard against?
Making a prompt decision, the coachman brought the things in.
Xie Pinggang did not think too much about it. After all, this sister of his often got Chun Er to go out to buy things. Every time, she would bring a carriage full of things in.
For instance, the fruits that were in season were used to make fruit wine. If the quantity was small, it would not be enough, so she would buy a lot every time…
Seeing that she did not speak, Meng Jifang could only force himself to speak. “We escorted the two ladies back home…”
“Nonsense! Under the feet of the Emperor of the capital, why would my sister need you to escort her?! Speak! Did you scare her?! I think you are tired of living!” Xie Pinggang’s eyes were red with anger.
When his temper flared up, even the gods could not stop him. He really wanted to kill someone. Meng Jifang was also a little flustered. “Young Master Xie, just ask your sister about it. We just saw that the things in her carriage were expensive. We were afraid that something might happen to her, so we followed her all the way here!”
Expensive? Xie Pinggang snorted. His sister was stingy!
Even if she liked to buy things, she would not buy a bunch of expensive things!
Who was he trying to fool?!
“That’s really what happened. Young Lady Xie brought back a lot of gold from outside the city. Many people saw it and were afraid that it would not be safe. That’s why we came…”

“With her identity, what can we do to her?”
The group of young masters felt quite wronged.
Xie Qiao’s brother alone was enough to make many people tremble in fear.
He was too fierce and they did not dare to provoke him.
Xie Pinggang was an official, but he was more like a fugitive.
When Xie Pinggang heard all of them complaining, he looked at Xie Qiao and asked, “What gold?”
“Oh, it’s just some small property. It’s just that these little brothers are too kind. It’s not a big deal.” Xie Qiao lied through her teeth.
The few young masters could not help but roll their eyes.
It was not a big deal?!
If that carriage of gold was exchanged for silver at the bank, it would at least be close to 20,000 taels of silver, right?! There were also many other things inside. It was not like they had not seen the world before. They could almost say with certainty that that carriage of gold, jade, pearls, gemstones, and gold articles were definitely worth more than 50,000 taels of silver!
Yet she said that it was not a big deal?
Xie Qiao had an innocent look on her face. It was really infuriating to look at her.
“The one that Young Lady Xie brought over…”
A young master could not help but open his mouth, however, Meng Jifang cut him off. “Young Lady Xie came all the way from outside the city. It was a tough journey. Although transporting the items is a small matter, Young Lady Xie is the Crown Prince’s wife after all. It is not appropriate for her to go out without a maid servant accompanying her. We had nothing to do, so we are happy to follow and take a look…”
