When Xie Pinggang arrived home, it was only natural that the steward and servants would welcome him to check whether he needed anything.

When they saw Granny Wan talking to him, even the steward had a change of expression. He got up immediately to ask, “Is this about Eldest Lady asking for someone to dig the well? I’ve already gotten someone to do it. It’ll be done tomorrow. Ask Eldest Lady not to be worried. It will be alright if it’s postponed for one or two days.”

Yuan Rong chuckled.

“Well? What well?” Xie Pinggang was confused.

“There used to be a well in Eldest Lady’s courtyard. Not sure why, but Eldest Lady doesn’t like the well’s position. She wanted to fill it and dig another one somewhere else. We’ve been helping with Ms. Pei’s matters these days, so our plates have been full. The well isn’t urgent, so it’s been dragged for a few days. This humble one has explained this to Eldest Lady,” Yuan Rong said immediately.

Xie Pinggang managed to capture a few terms from the long-winded speech.

‘Doesn’t like it’, ‘Ms. Pei’, and ‘dragged for a few days’…

“What are you useful for when you can’t even prioritize things?” Xie Pinggang scoffed and said to Granny Wan, “Tell her that it’ll be done tomorrow morning.”

Yuan Rong’s facial expression turned stiff.

Granny Wan did not look too happy either. “No, Eldest Lady is asking you to go to her. She’s asking you to dig the well,” she said calmly.

Xie Pinggang’s eyelids twitched.

“Eldest Young Master has just gotten home. How can you make him do something so exhausting?” Yuan Rong said immediately, trying to butter up to Xie Pinggang.

“Eldest Lady has prepared the tools. They’re over there,” said Granny Wan.

‘Is she for real!?’

In reality, Xie Pinggang was a little hungry. However, he thought about it carefully. This sister of his must have felt wronged and wanted him to show people her standing.

He said, “Alright, I’ll dig it.”

“Eldest Young Master!?” The steward was dumbstruck.

“Get more people over. It’s not too late to start digging now. We’ll do it overnight.” Xie Pinggang glared at Yuan Rong, looking upset.

That was the steward that his dumb father had picked. He must be blind to have picked him.

Yuan Rong had contributed something major back in the mountain stronghold. He was then promoted to an official, but he lacked in capabilities to reach a higher rank. Given that he was considered loyal to his father, he worked for their family at home.

Xie Pinggang rolled up his sleeves and went to Xie Qiao’s courtyard.

She was currently sitting in the courtyard.

She held a chicken feather fan in one hand while holding a book in the other. The sky had yet to turn dark, but she had lit up the lamp aside. Her chicken was by her foot as well, and she seemed rather relaxed.

She did not look like she was pissed.

Xie Pinggang did not disturb her when he got in. He got the steward over and began to dig the well right after asking where he should start.

Xie Qiao lifted her head and looked.

‘Dark and big eyes, a tough and decisive man. He has a lucky face, but it’s unfortunate that… he does not have destiny in love?’

“Tsk!” Xie Qiao could not help but make that sound to express her pity.

Xie Pinggang’s hearing was good. He heard that and turned around to stare at her.

Xie Qiao put down her book. She supported her chin with one hand and fanned herself with the other as she asked in a relaxed manner, “Eldest Brother, when are you getting yourself a wife?”

Xie Pinggang’s face turned stiff.

Why did she ask him when he was getting married? That was heartbreaking for him.

“You’re not young anymore, so you should start a family soon. Our mother in heaven would be happy to see that,” said Xie Qiao.

Xie Pinggang’s face looked even more terrible now. She made it sound like he did not want to get married!

“If I can’t find a suitable wife two years later, I’ll buy eight or ten maidservants from the human traffickers and marry all of them!” Xie Pinggang scoffed.

‘All I want is for them to bear children for me. It’s simple.’

Xie Qiao’s eyelids twitched—that was indeed what Xie Pinggang was capable of doing!
