Chapter 1176 - 270: Harboring Ill Intentions_5
The household affairs were mostly overseen by Su Xue, with the eunuch in charge being cared for at Tiance Mansion. Pei Qin had ceded her power, and with few matters at the mansion, everything was left in Su Xue’s hands.
"Su Xue! Arrange a place for you and your brother to live," Pei Qin called her over.
When Su Xue saw her, she paid her respects and then eyed Xie Yi and Xie Ze. Despite never having visited the neighboring residence, she was well-versed in its affairs. She had always heard of Xie Yi and Xie Ze but had never met them. Xie Yi had a pitiable, fragile, and melancholic demeanor, while Xie Ze held his chin up slightly, his gaze flickering, "I wasn’t prepared before. Why is Ms. Xie moving to Tiance Mansion as well?"
Pei Qin pulled her aside and explained in a low voice.
Su Xue clearly felt that Pei Qin was closer to her than to Xie Yi, and this realization pleased her. She nodded with a smile, "There is a small courtyard that we have already tidied up. It was originally for my brother and sister-in-law to move into, but let Ms. Xie and Young Master Xie move there first."
The place her brother and sister-in-law were supposed to move into was like quarters for servants and stewards, with an independent gate and courtyard, three main rooms, three back rooms opposite, and a western wing for a kitchen, opening to the east.
And there were five of such courtyards in a row.
"If it’s clean, then move there first!" Pei Qin said to Xie Yi. After all, she and her brother wouldn’t stay for long. They would take their family possessions and move to their own home.
