Chapter 1721 What a coincidence
"If you feel uncomfortable, please send for a doctor as soon as possible. I will be back soon."
Qiao Xuan smiled softly, "Don't worry, my husband. I just didn't have an appetite this morning and I just feel a little hungry now. There's nothing else. There's tea and snacks in the carriage. I'll be fine after I eat something."
Shao Yunduan didn't quite believe it, but seeing that her spirits did seem to have improved a bit, he felt relieved and said a few words of concern to her before sending her to the carriage.
The road conditions in Anze Prefecture are really bad. Even in the city, except for the two main roads that crisscross the city, the other roads are not very good.
If you are not careful, it will be a pit.
The carriage could only move slowly and go back slowly.
As it happens, today is market day. When I passed through the busy street area in the center of the market, it was extremely bustling. All kinds of vendors, stalls, and people buying and selling things were crowded together, and the traffic was blocked for a long stretch.
The driver wanted to turn around, but found that the road behind him was also blocked. He had no choice but to wait.
Qiao Xuan saw a three-story teahouse nearby that looked pretty good, so she took Aye, Lixia, Liqiu, and Caiyue to the teahouse to sit for a while and wait until the traffic downstairs was clear before leaving.
Who knew I would be so lucky? As soon as I went up to the second floor, I saw Fan Ruyin and her daughter, as well as a woman who seemed to be the wife and daughter of the Liao family, who were about to leave. I ran into them right in the middle of the way.
Mrs. Liao was stunned, then she bowed to Qiao Xuan and said hello with a smile: "Mrs. Shao!"
Fan Ruyin also smiled, but that smile was half-true and half-false: "Mrs. Shao, what a coincidence!"
Qiao Xuan nodded, a smile on her lips: "It's not a coincidence."
Originally, they didn't have much friendship with each other. On the contrary, they had fought each other secretly. Since they met by chance, they just said hello.
But Fan Ruyin refused.
Especially when there was a third party around, she always felt that if she didn't do something it would mean that she was afraid of Qiao Xuan.
How could her aunt from the Fan family be afraid of the prefect's wife? All the prefect's wives have always been loyal to her Fan family.
The more you suffer a loss or a slap in the face, the more you cannot lose momentum!
Fan Ruyin smiled and said, "Mrs. Shao looks healthy and energetic today! How come she came out to go shopping today after saying she was not feeling well two days ago? Could it be that she looks down on people like us and refuses to join us even if we have a banquet?"
Qiao Xuan laughed angrily and glanced at her: "No way, a pregnant woman may feel better at one moment and worse at another, how can you tell? I'll host a banquet another day when I'm free, and I'll make sure to entertain you all!"
"I don't deserve it. Madam Shao is very precious. If something happens, we won't be able to explain it clearly! Besides, if Madam Shao is uncomfortable again, it will be considered as intentional, which is not nice to say!"
Qiao Xuan: "Thank you, Madam Bai, for thinking of everything for me. If Madam Bai hadn't told me, I wouldn't have thought of this!"
Fan Ruyin felt more and more unhappy. She glanced at Lixia and Liqiu, and then smiled and said, "I have a good idea. I wonder if Madam Shao would like to hear it?"
She said "Do you want to listen?", and before Qiao Xuan could speak, she smiled and said, "Mrs. Shao is inconvenient, wouldn't it be easier to have an arm? I think the girls Lixia and Liqiu are good, young and beautiful, with good temperaments. Mrs. Shao might as well let Mr. Shao open the face and take in the room. In the future, if there is anything, Mrs. Shao will have someone to come forward, and she won't have to trouble Madam Guan, an outsider. Isn't it good! Mrs. Shao, isn't my idea good?"
