The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny
Chapter 55 - Judging A Book By Its Cover
The teacher was responsible for recruiting students. He looked terrible when he saw Xie Niushan. The rest could not help but look at Xie Niushan.
Someone could not help but mumble softly, "So that's Master Bandit?"
"It was him who carried the silver taels to the dean's house…" Some students who passed by even teased him.
"I heard that his daughter and son could not really read. They weren't qualified to get in, and they were almost chased out. Never had they thought this Master Xie would make noise and look for the dean directly. He said the dean looked down on him. The dean is a man of reason. However, what could he say when he met such a bandit? He could only accept his children," someone told the whole story in detail.
Xie Qiao heard that too.
She turned her head and peeped at Xie Niushan in confusion.
Xie Niushan's cheeks flushed, "What nonsense! I'm a fourth-grade official. My two good-for-nothin— Children aren't illiterate. They just can't read very well. I've already paid, why couldn't he accept them? It was that old man who was unreasonable!"
Xie Qiao sighed.
It was good enough that her brother and sister behaved how they were behaving when they had such a father.
At present, the teacher was glaring at them.
"Master Xie, the academy is a land of peace. We'll have to ask you to leave if you keep cursing here," the teacher said.
"Did I curse? I didn't! I've always been talking like this. The dean knows it," Xie Niushan denied.
Fortunately, Xie Qiao was thick-skinned.
If it was some other ladies, they would have buried themselves in a hole.
"Master Xie, are you here to send this lady to the academy?" The teacher did not want to argue with a crude man like him.
He knew he could not argue with such a man.
"Of course. There's no one else standing next to me apart from her. Are you blind—" Xie Niushan wanted to curse by instinct. However, he held back.
He despised long-winded, educated people. It was irritating that they judged a book by its cover!
"Master Xie, according to the rules, we don't take in adopted daughters and clan members."
Only third-grade officials could recommend children who were not related!
"This is my eldest daughter!" Xie Niushan snorted.
"I've never heard of her… Is she an official daughter? If that's the case, the value of the gift would be a fold higher," the teacher said.
They would not talk money with others directly, but they were facing Xie Niushan. It would be more straightforward to be talking money with him.
"Unofficial daughter? She's my direct eldest daughter! She was ill back then, so she was raised outside. I've only got her back recently!" Xie Niushan was pissed, seemingly blaming the teacher for being blind.
The teacher was shocked to hear that.
His daughter by blood, and she was his direct eldest daughter at that?
They looked… very different!
However, nobody could fake such a thing indeed. The Royal Academy had great support. If Xie Niushan dared to get someone to disguise as his direct eldest daughter, he would definitely be demoted. It was not worth it.
"It's alright since she's your eldest daughter. Please queue here, Young Lady Xie. Please stay outside, Master Xie," the teacher said.
Xie Niushan looked at Xie Qiao with slight concern.
"Don't worry, just skip those that you can't read. Your sister got in by doing that," Xie Niushan reminded before leaving.
"Sure," Xie Qiao said shamelessly.
One could not be too smart when they talked to Xie Niushan.
He might think that she was insane if she was to tell him not to worry and that she was confident.
It made sense. Her father had a clear estimation of himself. Naturally, he would not believe that he gave birth to a smart daughter.
