Chapter 1678 Complaint
Fan Ruyin did this purely on a whim.
She didn't really want to harm Qiao Xuan, she just felt unhappy. Since she had come across such a good opportunity, of course she had to take advantage of it.
As for the final result, she doesn't care too much.
Of course it would be good if the final result made her happy. Even if she didn't achieve what she wanted, it didn't matter, because she didn't lose anything anyway.
There are so many guests here today, it’s impossible to trace it back to her!
Besides, anyone with eyes can see that Mrs. Guan and the new Mrs. Shao don't get along well. Even Mrs. Shao herself wouldn't suspect there was something fishy about her son's behavior, right?
As for Mrs. Guan herself, huh, can she find out?
As the aunt of the Fan family, one of the three major families, Fan Ruyin has always been proud and looks down on everyone in Anze Prefecture.
Old Madam Fan asked about the welcoming banquet and the new wife of the prefect. Before the two sisters-in-law could speak, Fan Ruyin spoke first: "This Madam Shao is very arrogant and doesn't look down on people. I took the initiative to greet her with a smile, but she was very perfunctory and didn't want to pay any attention at all... These wives of officials, one by one, are all like this, very annoying!"
"Don't you see where we are? Let them be so arrogant!"
Madam Fan Da and Madam Fan Er looked at each other and exchanged glances quietly. Both of them were speechless and confused.
Because they could not remember how Mrs. Shao had ignored their aunt?
I can't think of it. I think this lady has always been used to it. In her eyes, anyone who doesn't try to curry favor with her is arrogant and she will ignore him.
They sneered in their hearts, but they had no intention of speaking up for Qiao Xuan. This was not a big deal, and the mother-in-law always protected the aunt, so if they spoke too much, they would only be scolded.
Old Madam Fan was quite unhappy when she heard this. She frowned and said, "I heard that Mr. Shao was the top scholar in the last term. He is very young, so his wife is also young. Young people are bound to be arrogant! She doesn't give face to our Fan family in Anze Prefecture. Humph, she thinks too highly of herself!"
Fan Ruyin sneered: "Mother is absolutely right, let's just wait and see what happens! How long can this Mr. Shao stay here, haha!"
Qiao Xuan pretended to be pregnant at home, but it did not delay her from directing Song Shi, Mian Mian and others to do their work.
Zheng Sangge had returned from Yuzhang provincial capital and brought back Le Zhengxiao's reply.
Le Zhengxiao readily said that he guaranteed that there would be no problem with the seeds, so just leave it to him!
He also said that there was no problem with the potato seeds that Qiao Xuan asked for.
He is also responsible for getting the seeds of several medicinal herbs such as Polygonatum sibiricum, Pinellia ternata, Angelica sinensis, and Honeysuckle.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were both relieved.
After all, they have been friends for so many years, Le Zhengxiao is really kind to them!
Qiao Xuan plans to promote potatoes and grow medicinal herbs, as well as economic crops such as pepper and star anise here.
It is just right to plant these in mountainous areas like this.
She actually prefers the most precious herbs like Pseudostellaria baicalensis and Gastrodia elata, but it would be too conspicuous to cultivate such precious herbs before she has established a firm foothold.
It is better to first plant some plants such as Polygonatum sibiricum and Pinellia ternata, which are not as good as Pseudostellaria baicalensis and Gastrodia elata but have very good prices, and then plant other plants after they have developed slowly.
