Chapter 429: Nothing Venture, Nothing Have
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xie Qiao was silent for a moment.
Master Qiu’s offer was actually quite attractive.
She was not that worried about her eldest big brother, but her father was a fool. He would not even know that he had offended someone. He even needed her to personally guide him in matters such as getting promoted and getting rich.
If one day he really offended a noble, if Master Qiu was willing to help plead for him, her father’s impulsive crime would not be a problem at all.
The Xie family had too few connections, and they did not have many personal relationships.
Although Master Qiu was only a vice dean, he had his own disciples. Moreover, this old man had been an official at the Hanlin Academy when he was young.
.
“Young Lady Xie, aren’t you curious about how much potential the students of Orchid Courtyard have?” Old Man Qiu added.
“I am,” Xie Qiao nodded.
It was indeed quite interesting to watch others fight to the death.
Unfortunately, if the Orchid Courtyard lost, her good connections would be gone in a short time.
Who would like a person who made them bow their heads?
“I have seen Young Lady Xie’s exam papers earlier, you did really well. I believe that if you can give some pointers, your Orchid Courtyard will have some chance of winning,” said Master Qiu.
“The results of the next exam will be posted on the notice board outside the academy. Everyone can see it. Whether the Orchid Courtyard can turn things around will depend on this,” Master Qiu was extremely shrewd.
“If they can really turn things around, your Xie family will benefit immensely,” Master Qiu added.
Nothing venture, nothing have.
The parents of the students of Orchid Courtyard also wished for their children to become successful. If Xie Qiao guided all of them, those people would naturally remember it.
Xie Qiao sighed in a muffled voice.
“Dean, do you know that my health is lacking?” Xie Qiao sighed, “If I’m so angry that I lose my life, then our families will really have a feud.”
Master Qiu’s beard moved.
“Forget it. For the sake of Master Qiu’s sincere explanation, I’ll do it,” Xie Qiao nodded.
Regardless of whether she agreed or not, Orchid Courtyard and Peony Courtyard would definitely have a “fight” .
In that case, she would take on the title of stirring up trouble in exchange for the protection coming from Master Qiu or the academy’s future. The deal was pretty good.
Master Qiu had actually forgotten that Xie Qiao was lacking in health.
At that moment, Xie Qiao stood up shakily.
As if she could be blown by the wind at any time, her heart suddenly tightened.
If she was angered to death…
Master Qiu’s old face was solemn, and he looked a lot more nervous.
Xie Qiao held her chest and walked out with a pale face.
When the others saw her like that, they thought she was being bullied, and they looked a little angry.
“Master Qiu is really a villain! He has lived for so many years, and he still dares to bully a child like you!” Qin Liu was very angry, and she added in a low voice, “Shameless.”
“Shh,” Xie Qiao raised her hand at her, “Respect your teacher.”
Qin Liu stuck out her tongue.
Xie Qiao could not bear to hide the matter from Qin Liu, so she told her about it.
After listening to it, Qin Liu was stunned.
“Master Qiu is really a fox. Xie Qiao, you’re so miserable. You’ve become a trouble stirrer because of your good looks,” Qin Liu looked at Xie Qiao sympathetically.
“It doesn’t matter. As long as the people from the Orchid Courtyard can win, it will be fine. As for the opinions of the students of Peony Courtyard, I don’t care,” Xie Qiao said.
“Win?! It’s too difficult!” Qin Liu did not seem to have much confidence.
Xie Qiao suddenly understood why there was no teacher in the academy to stop this matter.
Look, this was the current situation of all the students from the Orchid Courtyard.
They had no confidence at all, as if they were born dumber than the Peony Courtyard’s people.
“Are you willing to lower your head and bow when you see people from the Peony Courtyard in the future?” Xie Qiao asked.
Qin Liu shook her head.
“Then try hard,” Xie Qiao said.
Qin Liu did not have that much fighting spirit, but if the Orchid Courtyard won, Xie Qiao did not have to go to the Peony Courtyard. For this, she had to work hard no matter what!
