Chapter 1529 Arrangement
The two exchanged glances. Madam wanted to look for him, but she was more afraid that the other party was trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain or make a feint to the east and attack in the west, so, sir, you can't take it lightly either.
Shao Yunduan instructed Ah Ye again: "Tomorrow you and Mianmian will take Qiao Wei to Madam's place. There are only Lixia and Liqiu, which is a bit too few. You guys should work harder and keep a close eye on Qiao Wei. Don't let her have the chance to do anything."
"Yes, sir."
Shao Yunduan suspected that someone from the government office was involved in this matter. Since the other party had succeeded, they would definitely have the next move. They would definitely try every means to expose the news of his wife's disappearance, otherwise wouldn't their actions be in vain?
If this is true, Lixia and Liqiu may not be able to cope with it.
That night, the posthouse seemed peaceful and quiet, and everything was normal, but secretly a new round of arrangements had already been made...
The next day, news spread that Qiao Xuan had caught a cold, felt dizzy and had a fever, so the entire team had to stay there temporarily.
When the prefect's wife heard the news, she naturally would not remain silent. She brought the wife of the chancellor and the wives of the two legal advisors to visit the patient.
With Qiao Wei, a young lady from an official family, around, she had to come forward to greet the prefect's wife and others.
Mianmian and Lixia also came, and Liqiu stayed with Qiao Xuan to take care of her.
Qiao Wei was not stupid. After thinking about it all night, she probably had figured out that something must have happened to Qiao Xuan, and it was definitely not just a simple cold.
Otherwise, Shao Yunduan wouldn't have kicked her with a gloomy face in the middle of the night.
Thinking of the murderous kick he gave her, Qiao Wei couldn't help but feel a dull pain in her chest, and she felt a little uneasy.
But she couldn't help feeling secretly excited and happy!
Something finally happened to that bitch, and it must be a big deal, she deserved it!
Although she was happy, after being kicked by Shao Yunduan and given a warning in a fierce manner, she did not dare to have the slightest thought of doing anything naughty.
When the prefect's wife and others came to visit, she only dared to entertain them politely, pretending that Qiao Xuan really just caught a cold and was unable to see anyone.
If she hadn't been threatened by Shao Yunduan, she would definitely not be so honest at this moment. Even if she didn't dare to say it out loud, she would definitely hint at something, or even deliberately make some irresponsible self-guessing.
Unlike now, the Prime Minister's wife was very concerned and repeatedly asked to meet and visit Mrs. Shao in person, but she had to express her sincere gratitude and politely decline.
The prefect's wife asked if she could help invite a local old doctor with excellent medical skills, but she reluctantly declined.
Qiao Wei was so upset that she almost wanted to vomit blood!
What a great opportunity to stir up trouble and cause trouble, but it was presented to me, yet I didn't dare to take advantage of it at all! Instead, I had to cover up for that bitch Qiao Xuan...
At noon, the wife of the prefect and the wife of the chancellor sent people over again, and three maids and two servants came together to bring soup to Qiao Xuan to express their gratitude.
A maidservant smiled and called out, "Miss Lixia, Miss Liqiu!" Then she walked up the stairs with her companions to go into the house naturally and confidently, and said with a smile as she walked, "What a coincidence! Our wife and the wife of the prime minister have asked the kitchen to make some soup, and they specially sent us to deliver it to Madam Shao!"
"This soup has ginseng and wolfberry, it's very nourishing!"
Lixia and Liqiu hurriedly stopped them.
"The wife of the prefect and the wife of the chancellor are very thoughtful. Please give the soup to us. Our wife just took the medicine and went to bed. She is sleeping soundly now. We won't disturb her. When she wakes up, we will inform her."
