Chapter 1648 Provocation

After all these things were done, dusk had already fallen outside and the lights were on.

The food ordered from the restaurant was also delivered. Everyone had worked hard, so Qiao Xuan asked Lixia to pass on the message, asking everyone to have dinner and then go to rest. This meant they had settled down, and there were still many things to do in the future.

Sun Bai and Sun Qian still did not dare to be negligent and arranged people to be on duty at night.

No words were spoken all night.

Qiao Xuan nestled in Shao Yunduan's arms, feeling a sense of satisfaction for no reason: This could be considered their home...

After waking up the next morning, Qiao Xuan washed up and took Lixia, Liqiu and Mianmian to visit the garden.

Shao Yunduan went to the front yamen to meet the officials of all ranks in the prefectural yamen.

The garden is full of flourishing flowers and trees. At this time, the roses, gardenias, azaleas, peonies, herbaceous peonies, crabapples, etc. are in full bloom, and the big trees are also lush and green.

It can be seen that Mrs. Guan is very thoughtful and has taken good care of the garden.

After traveling through mountains and rivers along the way, it was a rare opportunity to take a leisurely walk so early in the morning. Both Qiao Xuan and her servant were in a good mood.

Qiao Xuan's heart moved, and she suddenly wanted to provoke Mrs. Guan again.

He asked Lixia and the others to find a bamboo basket, and called Qinglian, Qiaoqiao, Caiyue and the others to come and pick flowers together.

She picked all the blooming roses, wild roses and gardenias and wanted to make lip balm.

The peonies, peonies and crabapples were in full bloom. She took a pair of scissors and cut a few branches off so she could take them home and put them in a vase.

The azalea and hydrangea are growing well. I will dig them out carefully and plant them in the east yard.

Qiao Xuan was watching the maids picking and folding flowers. Everyone was chatting and laughing and it was very lively. Mrs. Guan, who got the news, came in angrily with her people.

A woman shouted from afar, "Where did these ignorant little girls come from? Stop it now!"

Qiao Xuan sneered and said calmly, "Ignore her."

The maids responded with a smile, "Who is this woman? She's yelling so loudly!", "Yes, who is she trying to scare!", "Don't tell me, she really scared me when she suddenly yelled like that!", "Me too, me too..."

Mrs. Guan saw that the maids had no intention of stopping, and she became even angrier. She gritted her teeth and cursed, "Why are you so arrogant now? It's really unreasonable!"

"Mrs. Shao!" Mrs. Guan was so angry that she could hardly hold it back, and her tone was aggressive when she called Qiao Xuan.

"This is Madam Shao, right? I am the wife of the governor. Madam Shao, why don't you take a rest after just arriving? You are in such a good mood!"

Lixia glanced at Aunt Ding and scolded her, "Auntie, were you yelling just now? Our wife is pregnant, and you suddenly yelled at the top of your lungs, which scared our wife! If you scared our wife, do you deserve it?"

Nanny Ding and Madam Guan were both surprised.

Is Mrs. Shao pregnant? She is really determined to follow her husband on the road even though she is pregnant.

Madam Ding smiled and said, "Alas, I didn't know that Madam Shao was pregnant. I deserve to be beaten! Madam Shao, please forgive me. I will be more careful in the future."

"I am also worried. These flowers were carefully taken care of by our Madam. It took a lot of effort to grow them like this. It would be a pity to pick them! Madam Shao, do you think we should ask the girls to stop?"

Madam Guan also said, "Madam Shao, these flowers are so beautiful. I wonder what Madam Shao is going to do with them after picking them? It's spring now, and Madam Shao happened to be here. I was thinking of holding a flower-viewing banquet in a few days and inviting all the ladies to enjoy the flowers. If these flowers are gone..."
