Chapter 169 Taking the Initiative to Get Closer to Him
“But…” Xu Liu’er paused upon hearing this.
She thought of the incident a few days ago when Siyuan snatched Xie Jue's jade pendant...
This matter ultimately ended unpleasantly.
The two children have developed a rift; how can they possibly study together? Will my sister-in-law agree to this?
Xie Zhongzhi guessed what she was thinking.
"You don't need to worry about that. Just tell your mother and the old lady tomorrow, and Qin Jiuwei will definitely agree."
"Then we can let the two children go to class together, so they can keep each other company. Wouldn't that be great?"
Xie Zhongzhi smiled.
When two children attend classes together, the differences become apparent.
Xie Siyuan is a child with the bloodline of a marquis.
He will definitely learn better than Xie Jue, his adopted son!
When the time comes, his child will definitely be able to completely outshine Xie Yanli's child!
The next day.
Qin Jiuwei was summoned to the main courtyard early in the morning.
The room was now full of people.
Xu Liuer told Xie Siyuan about his desire to start his studies with Xie Jue.
"Jiuwei, what do you think of this matter?" Old Madam Xie asked.
Xu Liuer raised her eyes and cautiously looked at Qin Jiuwei.
I was afraid she wouldn't agree.
At this moment, everyone in the room turned their attention to Qin Jiuwei.
Madam Xie kept a close eye on her.
The two children had a little disagreement the other day, but Xie Siyuan's first day of school is a big deal!
He is the eldest grandson of their Marquis's family! His studies cannot be neglected!
Qin Jiuwei was not allowed to be petty and refuse to agree to this because of this matter.
"of course can."
Upon hearing Qin Jiuwei's response, Madam Xie breathed a sigh of relief.
Yes, Qin Jiuwei is still that sensible and reasonable granddaughter-in-law.
The tutor she found was quite good; he was not only a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations), but he also taught Xie Jue very well.
She'll surely be able to raise her eldest grandson very well!
Finally, Madam Xie made the decision, "Both children will go to class together tomorrow."
Lady Hou and Xu Liu'er were both delighted to hear this.
Upon seeing this, Qin Jiuwei's lips curled into a smile.
At this time, in the Wenyuan Pavilion.
Today, everyone noticed that something seemed off about Prince Xie.
Not only did he not have a cold face, but he always had a faint smile on his lips.
This brought a sigh of relief to the cabinet ministers who had been barely surviving under his heavy pressure.
But they didn't know exactly what had happened.
Xie Yanli sat behind the table, his long, slender fingers holding a teacup.
He didn't drink it, he just watched.
Last night, Jiuwei started to get close to him, cling to him, and even act coquettishly towards him.
This has never happened before.
This made him very happy.
It also made the evenings much more vibrant and lively.
Thinking of what happened last night, Xie Yanli felt a tightness in his throat again.
Moreover, this morning, Jiuwei personally tied a belt she had made for him.
very nice.
"Young Master Xie?" Zhao Ming called out nervously.
He wanted to report on the refugees in Jiangnan, but he had been standing in front of Prince Xie for a long time and he still hadn't received a response.
Zhao Ming pursed his lips and called out again, "Young Master Xie?"
Xie Yanli heard this.
He looked up at Zhao Ming, his eyebrows slightly raised.
"What, you also think my new belt looks good?"
Zhao Ming: ...
Nobody asked that.
But if your boss says that, you, as a subordinate, should naturally agree.
A smile immediately spread across Zhao Ming's face.
"Yes, I noticed the belt around the young master's waist at a glance. It's absolutely exquisite and beautiful."
Xie Yanli smiled and said, "Of course, this was made for me by my wife herself."
Zhao Ming's lips twitched.
Who asked?! Who asked?!
The Marquis's Residence, Qinglan Courtyard.
After Xie Jue returned from school today, Qin Jiuwei told him that Xie Siyuan would be taking class with him tomorrow.
Upon hearing this, Xie Jue's fair face immediately scrunched up.
"Ah! I don't want to!"
That Xie Siyuan is a bad kid!
He stole his jade pendant! He bullied him!
He's an absolutely awful person! He hates him!
Qin Jiuwei had guessed that he would react this way.
She reached out and pulled Xie Jue into her arms, gently coaxing him, "Mother knows you don't like him, but there's only one tutor in the manor right now."
“Your grandmother also values Siyuan very much, and she also wants Siyuan to attend classes with Mr. Zhong.”
In her mother's gentle embrace, Xie Jue gradually calmed down.
He pouted slightly. "Okay, I understand. I'll go to class with him."
He could actually tell that his great-grandmother seemed to prefer Xie Siyuan to him...
"Don't worry, if Xie Siyuan dares to bully you, just tell Mr. Zhong immediately if he does anything that makes you uncomfortable. He will definitely stand up for you," Qin Jiuwei said gently.
Xie Jingchun spoke up at this moment, "Third brother, don't worry. If he dares to bully you, I'll beat him so badly that even Second Uncle won't recognize him!"
After saying that, he waved his clenched fist at Xie Jue.
Xie Jue was amused.
The group chatted for a while longer before Xie Jue went back to his room to rest.
After the three children left, Qin Jiuwei called Xiaohe to her side and whispered a few words of advice in her ear.
"These words must be conveyed to Mr. Zhong."
Xiao He nodded, turned around and left.
Zhiyuan Academy.
"Siyuan, your mother has made arrangements for you. Tomorrow, you and Juege will go to the front yard to have a lesson with Mr. Zhong."
As Xu Liuer spoke, she packed the things he would need for class the next day.
Upon hearing this, Xie Siyuan coldly raised his eyes.
"I dont go."
