Chapter 1711: Furious
She was the one who initiated the debt collection in order to suppress Lord Shao and force him to back down.
Unexpectedly, Lord Shao didn't even look embarrassed at all, and he paid back all the 620,000 silver coins in one go!
In this round, Mrs. Fan lost.
Others also lose, but she is the leader.
Mrs. Shao was also interesting. She immediately held a banquet and invited everyone to enjoy the flowers and listen to opera!
This is clearly a continuation of the challenge to the Fan family and the three major families.
Even if I paid back 620,000 silver coins, so what? I was still in a good mood to enjoy the flowers and listen to the opera!
After the Fan family received the invitation, Mrs. Fan was so angry that she almost lost her breath and cursed, "This is too much!"
Isn't this just going too far?
Who isn't stupid? How could they not see what Qiao Xuan meant by deliberately hosting a banquet at this time?
"It seems that Mr. Shao and Mrs. Shao have made up their minds to go against us! Good, good, good! Today I have finally seen such an ungrateful person!"
"As proud as they are, having money is not enough in Anze Province! Ha!"
Old Madam Fan was angry and originally planned not to let the Fan family attend the banquet, and also to not let those families with whom she was on good terms go. She also told the Mei and Huo families.
Master Fan Da and Master Fan Er have heads as big as buckets.
This won’t work!
This is tantamount to openly opposing Lord and Madam Shao. At that time, even for the sake of their face, Lord and Madam Shao will not let the Fan family go easily.
Although the Fan family is one of the three major families in Anze Prefecture, if they are targeted by Lord Shao, it will cause a lot of trouble.
By then, as one family gains strength while the other loses, the Huo family and the Mei family will leave themselves far behind.
Maybe some other family will try to replace ours.
But if I explain this to Old Mrs. Fan, it won't make sense, she won't listen.
Because she has great confidence in her family.
Master Fan and his brothers had no choice but to tell her that she must go to the banquet. If she didn't go, others would think that the Fan family was afraid of Master Shao!
After hearing this, Mrs. Fan felt that it was indeed true.
Why not go? You must go! And you have to go in a glamorous and beautiful way!
The banquet was held as scheduled. This time, it was even more lively and attended than the previous welcoming banquets.
Qiao Xuan is demonstrating, and for a demonstration, of course the more people there are, the better.
Moreover, she did invite more people to see if there were any that she could make friends with and support. How could it be possible that all the local families, big and small, were convinced by the three major families and had no other thoughts?
Qiao Xuan's status was higher than everyone else's, so she didn't need to go out to greet them personally. Instead, the ladies and young ladies who came to visit had to come forward one by one to greet her.
It saved her a lot of trouble.
Mrs. Guan felt very annoyed and upset when she saw this situation.
If Lord Shao can successfully resolve the seed issue, most of the clerks in the yamen will definitely side with him, and it will be completely meaningless for my master to use Qiao to recuperate!
But when things got to this point, her master was in a difficult situation.
I can only hope in my heart that Lord Shao cannot resolve this kind of problem.
When my master comes forward to solve the problem, I am not afraid that my master will no longer have the final say in this government office...
Compared to the last welcoming banquet, the ladies were obviously much more polite towards Qiao Xuan at this banquet.
