Ms. Fang was very amused. “Oh my! that is not what I am used to!”
“You should, mom! You will meet even better things in the future, that is your fortune!”
Ms. Fang laughed. “Okay, okay, let’s all share the fortune. Thank goodness you are here, so I am not feeling that unsure any more!”
Qiao Xuan added. “Don’t worry, mom. I will get everything well-arranged!” Shao Yunduan looked at these two women, gently and smiling.
Sure enough, the strategist and publicists arrived to congratulate Shao Yunduan. The announcement of his becoming a Provincial Champion caused a great stir in the first section of the Shao Family.
People flocked to offer their congratulations. Land officers and elderly men from the clan led Shao Yunduan to the ancestral hall where he paid tribute with tears of pride.
There had never been a recommended man from the village before, and Shao Yunduan was the first to obtain the title, which was a great honor for the whole village.
Villagers, friends, and relatives, as well as businessmen from the Yuezheng Family such as Manager Qin and Manager Dong, and even businessmen from other villages, all came to offer their congratulations and establish relationships with the family.
Qiao Xuan had attended many banquets with the First Madame and had learned some basic manners. She led Yang Xiaoni and Taotao to receive the guests, and they were also trained in the proper etiquette
The maids helped everything run smoothly, ensuring that everything was in proper order. They were so well-mannered that even some businessmen who didn’t think of the Shao Family as important couldn’t help but adjust their attitudes and show full respect.
Despite being just a farmer’s family, the Shao family’s manners impressed everyone. And with Shao Yunduan’s young age and Provincial Championship title, he was sure to have a bright future.
It was clear that befriending people like this would be beneficial for their own businesses and futures.
Most of the guests were male, and Shao Yunduan’s pageboy, Songshi, was there to assist Shao Sanlang and Shao Xiaoqi in receiving the guests. Manager Dong even offered some of his employees to help, which Shao Yunduan gratefully accepted and asked them to stay with the Shao Family for the time being.
When the three teachers from Minghua College and their students arrived, Shao Yunduan received them with calm and polite demeanor.
However, he maintained a polite and composed demeanor when interacting with the teachers, without showing any excessive familiarity or respect towards them.
To Shao Yunduan, only Master Yun was truly worthy of admiration and respect, as he was a man of great talent and integrity.
While the college teachers were knowledgeable and ethical, they were not particularly outstanding in Shao Yunduan’s eyes. Despite being expelled from the college, he had no intention of causing a scene or holding any grudges against them. As long as they could interact peacefully, it was enough for him.
The teachers were reassured to see Shao Yunduan receiving them with composure and without any signs of mockery or aggression.
They had initially feared that he might pick on them or make fun of them, but were pleasantly surprised to find that he treated them with respect and dignity.
Despite feeling relieved, the teachers couldn’t help but feel guilty and regretful for their past behavior towards him. They wondered why they had treated him so poorly before.
Feeling embarrassed, they didn’t stay for too long and left after having just two cups of tea.
County Magistrate Qiao’s strategist also attended the event and brought people to boost Shao Yunduan!s reputation.
The Shao Family received all of their guests at the door, except for those from
two particular families..
