Chapter 1081: Bad Parents
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Madame Lady Qiao reached a firm decision and approached Third Old Master Qiao, asking him to write a letter for Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan to sign. This letter would officially sever any remaining ties between the Qiao Family and the couple.
Taken aback, Third Old Master tried to persuade his mother to reconsider. “Mom, there’s no need to rush. Perhaps we can wait for a year or so.”
However, his arguments didn’t sway Madame Lady Qiao. She believed that they couldn’t afford to wait any longer, as the situation was pressing.
Third Old Master, though not entirely convinced, had a feeling that Shao Yunduan’s future held greater potential. Moreover, he realized that his daughter was more complex than he had previously thought. These realizations only intensified his displeasure towards Madame Qiao, leading him to distance himself from her.
Madame Lady Qiao, unhappy with Third Old Master’s response, argued that when the chips were down, waiting for over a year and a half was not a viable option. She recounted what Shao Yunduan had said to Qiao Hongxi, leaving Third Old Master dumbfounded.
Panicking, he began to believe that Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were capable of such actions. In light of this, breaking off ties seemed like the only choice they had.
Thus, Third Old Master wrote down everything and visited the Shao Family once again.
Qiao Xuan hadn’t anticipated that he would present her with the letter. She felt both surprised and relieved, though she was cautious not to reveal too much. She signed the contract and carefully stored the evidence, then beamed with a bright smile.
“Third Old Master Qiao, goodbye. Hopefully, we will have nothing to do with each other!”
Third Old Master was still feeling quite annoyed. He could not help but ask. “Xuan…”
“Just call me Mrs. Shao!”
“…You don’t miss the Qiao Family at all?”
Qiao Xuan was sneering inwardly – your daughter is gone, killed by your cold-heartedness. Even if she was alive, she might not have a good life today, and you would not have asked such a thing.
So hypocritical.
“No, not at all!”
“Why should I? After Concubine passed away, I lived a life worse than that of a maid. My birth mother was filled with malice, and my father was cold and heartless. What makes you think I should stay?” Qiao Xuan challenged, her voice filled with bitterness.
Third Old Master felt deeply embarrassed as he tried to defend himself. “There are many bad parents in the world…”
“Bad parents don’t deserve to be called parents,” Qiao Xuan countered firmly.
With nothing more to say, Third Old Master sighed dejectedly. “Alright, I’ll pretend that I never had a daughter like you. Take care of yourself!”
Qiao Xuan smiled gratefully. “Thank you for letting me go. I hope that you and the Qiao Family will honor your promise.”
Third Old Master felt a wave of dizziness, his anger simmering. He left in a fit of anger.
Qiao Xuan reread the paper and couldn’t contain her joy.
Her husband was so clever! She agreed to whatever he wanted to do.
As the situation resolved and Shao Yunduan’s time at the Hanlin Academy progressed smoothly, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan began discussing the idea of purchasing a shop.
Surprisingly, Shao Yunduan did not object.
During her free time, Qiao Xuan would accompany Shao Yunduan in their search.
However, finding a suitable store in the capital proved to be challenging. The right size and location seemed elusive.
Yet, after some time, they stumbled upon a plot of land measuring approximately 20 mu that was available for intermediate sale near a lake in the northern part of the city.
Qiao Xuan preferred the idea of purchasing land instead of a store, and she felt incredibly fortunate at their discovery.
