The County Magistrate sneered inwardly, quietly remarking, “Your mother is unwell, so we won’t keep you for lunch. Qiao Xuan, go visit your mother and then you may leave.”
“Okay!”
Qiao Xuan smiled, stood up, and paid no attention to his sudden coldness, causing County Magistrate Qiao to feel a sense of futility in his actions.
Shao Yunduan chimed in, “Sweetheart, hurry up. I’m waiting for you here. Let’s go home as soon as possible; it’s getting cold.”
“Okay!”
The two exchanged a glance and smiled, completely disregarding County Magistrate Qiao.
County Magistrate Qiao couldn’t help but feel an urge to curse; very well, he would witness their failure!
When Qiao Xuan arrived at the courtyard, the maid passed on the message to Madame Qiao. After waiting for a while without her appearing, Qiao Xuan couldn’t help but grin.
This lineal mother of hers was playing the same tricks she always did.
Was she purposefully avoiding her to create a scene?
Qiao Xuan entered directly.
Madame Qiao wasn’t actually ill. Even if she was feeling unwell, it was primarily due to County Magistrate Qiao’s attitude towards her. She sat on the bed, looking pale and with hair loss, far from her former elegance.
Qiao Wei was seated beside her, complaining about something, likely involving Qiao Kou and Concubine Du.
As Qiao Xuan walked in, Qiao Wei shrieked, “Why did you enter? You’re not allowed!”
Qiao Xuan smiled. “l came to greet Madame Qiao and see how she is doing. It appears that Madame Qiao is in good health, so I will take my leave now.”
Qiao Wei stood there, unsure of what to do next.
Madame Qiao wore a sinister expression. “Stop.”
“Is there something you want to say, Madame Qiao?”
“Hehe, Qiao Xuan, do you think you’re satisfied?” Madame Qiao sneered. “Your words from before have made the Old Master care about Concubine Du and Qiao Kou. He gives them everything, while you have received nothing.”
Qiao Wei also sneered with anger. “She deserves nothing. Father has never shown any affection towards her, not in the past, not now. She’s just trying to gain favor, a pitiful person serving us!!
“A pitiful person?” Qiao Xuan smiled and intentionally raised her wrist, caressing the emerald bracelet adorning it. “My husband is the Provincial Champion, and he, my mother-in-law, and my sister-in-laws all treat me exceptionally well. Elder Aunt Yuezheng regards me as her own daughter. Are you absurd enough to think I envy Qiao Kou?”
Qiao Wei became infuriated, panting heavily. Qiao Xuan was so vexing. No wonder she had never liked her.
Madame Qiao felt a pang in her heart, sneering, “You certainly know how to harm others and benefit yourself!”
“Harm others? Who have I harmed?”
Madame Qiao was taken aback by Qiao Xuan’s words.
Indeed, it was her that Qiao Xuan was referring to, but she couldn’t admit it, or she would be admitting defeat in this battle.
Qiao Xuan smiled. “Not harming you, right? Madame Qiao, Qiao Kou addresses your mother, and I’m sure you have affection for her as well.”
Madame Qiao remained silent.
Qiao Wei could no longer tolerate it. “Just leave!”
Qiao Xuan stood up and smiled. “My husband is waiting for me, and my mother-in-law is eagerly awaiting my return for the meal. My brother-in-law has just hunted a wild deer, so tonight we’ll be enjoying braised venison, stir-fried venison, and deer bone stew—very fresh and delicious. Tomorrow, we’ll be grilling the rest. Indeed, it’s time for me to go home..
