Then, this was the scene that they ran into.
Qiao Xuan was right. Something was wrong! Ms. Tian’s expression told them that Yang Liang was completely healthy.
When they asked in the village, everyone was shocked.
“Yang Liang is seriously injured? Of course not, I saw him wandering around in the village yesterday at noon!”
“Yeah! The couple are so lazy, how can they go to the hill and get injured? Hahaha?!”
“Shame on them! They lied just to get Xiaoni home?”
“That is so bad!”
“That is totally over the top!’
“But Xiaoni is also bad. She doesn’t want to speak with her brother and sister-in-law.”
No matter what the truth was, the news had been spread.
Yang Xiaoni, Qiao Xuan and Liqiu forced Ms. Tian to visit Fifth Grandma Yang, and everyone went to see the show of Yang Liangs family.
When they met Fifth Grandma Yang, Qiao Xuan greeted her politely and narrated the story briefly. Then, she ‘accidentally’ spilled out the news that her husband had not only become a recommended man, but also the Provincial Champion! They were just hurrying home to pass on the good news to their family, but ran into such a thing halfway…
Yang Xiaoni was surprised and glad, whilst Ms. Tian turned pale. The others exploded vividly, when Qiao Xuan’s words were heard.
“What? Did I get it right? Shao Yunduan is a recommended man now? Mr.
Recommended Man?! ”
“And Ms. Qiao said he is ranked first. Is that true?”
“Of course yes, who dares make such a lie!”
“Shao Yunduan, no, Cultivated Talent Shao, no, Recommended man Shao, you are so capable!”
Fifth Grandma Yangs family felt so honored when they heard that. They kept saying congratulations to Qiao Xuan and her husband and started to show a lot more enthusiasm and politeness towards Yang Xiaoni.
Fifth Grandma Yang, without hesitation, asked her children to get Land Officer and the elderly men from the clan over.
Soon, Shao Yunduan’s success in the examination spread across the Yang Village.
Soon, Yang Liang was escorted there.
Shao Sanlang became the brother of Mr. Recommended man, whilst Yang Xiaoni was the sister-in-law of Mr. Recommended man. Moreover, this Recommended man was the Provincial Champion. What did that mean?
It meant that he had the biggest chance to become the advanced scholar next year in the spring examination!
After all, he was the first one in the whole province!
At that time, he would become an officer!
Who would want to offend an officer for people like Yang Liang and Ms. Tian. They were definitely going to help this potential officer!
It was a very easy process of interrogation. Under heavy pressure, Ms. Tian soon confessed everything, without being brave any more.
But she was not regretful. She kept complaining about Yang Xiaoni for being cruel. But for her ruthlessness, she would not have been tempted to do something like this.
Yang Xiaoni got annoyed hearing that.
Some people from the Yang Village tried to tell Yang Xiaoni to be tolerant and open-minded. If Yang Xiaoni could help their village now when Shao Yunduan was rising in his position, their village might possibly become promising as well. So, they all hoped that Yang Xiaoni could accept her brother and sister-in-law’s apology.
That would make the Shao Family’s relationship with the Yang Village better..
