Chapter 1169 Are You Satisfied Now
Mr. Qiao San and Mrs. Qiao San were also reluctant to let go.
Although this son is no longer an official, his future is ruined and he will never be able to rise again in the future, he is still their only son.
Old Mrs. Qiao was extremely disgusted, and the first and second wives of the Qiao family also made sarcastic remarks, mocking and accusing them. Master Qiao San and his wife were almost angry to death.
It was impossible to expect the government to give money to save their son, so the couple had to raise money themselves.
After paying out the 1,200 taels of silver, the couple's private savings were almost depleted.
Mrs. Qiao was heartbroken, and the couple thought at the same time, why were they so eager to return to Beijing? They returned to a lonely place!
Not to mention a bunch of bad things, he didn't get promoted or make any more money, and his daughter lost her marriage and his son lost his job - what a sin he committed!
Master Qiao San was extremely angry, but he dared not disobey the government's decision. He felt aggrieved and went to Shao's house with a silver note of 1,000 taels and personally handed the note to Shao Yunduan.
He originally thought that if he came in person, Shao Yunduan would be somewhat embarrassed to ask for it - even if he did, he would not ask for so much.
Who would have thought that Shao Yunduan accepted the banknote without saying a word, and didn't even say "thank you!" to him.
Master Qiao San was so angry that he sneered, "Are you satisfied now? Shao Yunduan, I really misjudged you! I really regret it!"
Master Qiao San didn't say what he regretted, but Shao Yunduan could probably guess it.
Maybe he regretted marrying Qiao Xuan to him?
He said calmly, "I am barely satisfied with this compensation! No one can ignore being smeared! Master Qiao San, I have done nothing to let you down. I am sorry that I cannot agree with what you said."
Master Qiao San glared at him angrily, wanting to give him some explanation to refute him, but he could not say anything.
Shao Yunduan was able to pass the imperial examinations and become a scholar, a provincial champion, and a top scholar, without any help from him or the Qiao family.
After Qiao Xuan got married, her parents never gave her any benefits.
This is not something he can change just by not admitting it.
But, he is his father-in-law! He is the elder!
Why is he not filial?
Master Qiao San was angry for a while, but couldn't help blaming his mother and two brothers. If they hadn't severed their relationship with Qiao Xuan, things would never have turned out like this, never.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to say anything now!
Master Qiao San could only transform his anger into a forced attempt to save his dignity: "There is still a long time to come, so don't be complacent! Wait and see what kind of good ending you can have!"
Shao Yunduan raised his eyebrows and ignored the words.
After receiving the 1,000 taels of silver, Shao Yunduan couldn't help but think, his wife must be happy to be back, right? His wife's favorite thing is to get money from the Qiao family!
He missed her again. If he had known, he would not have let her go back.
Everyone thought that the matter had been settled, even the Fourth Prince and his concubine Mei, who ended the matter in a huff and dared not do anything for the time being.
No one expected that Shao Yunduan was not finished yet.
He wants to resign.
He said that he had never expected that because of the guidance given by Old Master Yun, people would be so jealous of him that they would go so far as to set up such a vicious scheme to frame him and try to ruin his reputation.
It would be fine for his own reputation, but if it implicates Old Master Yun and people accuse him of not being able to judge people and becoming confused, how would he feel?
