Chapter 1840 Confrontation
Mrs. Fan II entertained the guests at the Sifang Pavilion in the garden, and Mrs. Fan I went out personally to greet Qiao Xuan.
Fan Ruyin, who was dressed up beautifully, also followed with a smile.
Mrs. Fan frowned slightly, not knowing what to say, so she could only give up.
Seeing Qiao Xuan and Madam Jia, Madam Fan greeted them with a smile and warmly welcomed them. The two sides exchanged pleasantries while entering the mansion.
Fan Ruyin glanced at Madam Jia with contempt several times. No one else saw it, but Madam Jia noticed it. Although she was a little annoyed, she couldn't lose her temper because of it, so she had to pretend not to see it.
As a result, Fan Ruyin looked down on her even more.
I thought to myself, how can such a person be worthy of being the wife of the governor! I have never heard of her husband before. Maybe he got promoted because he flattered Lord Shao!
Fan Ruyin smiled and said, "Mrs. Shao and Mrs. Jia seem to be very close. The relationship between the prefect's wife and the chancellor's wife is truly unmatched!"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xuan glanced at her, said "hmm", smiled and nodded.
I agree with what she said.
Fan Ruyin choked and was so angry that she wanted to ask her why her relationship with Mrs. Guan was not so close before?
Madam Fan's eyebrows twitched. She knew she had something bad to say. Without waiting for her to say anything embarrassing or deliberately annoying, she smiled and said, "Sister, I wonder if the thousand-layer puff pastry and walnut curd in the pastry room are ready. Could you please help me check? Please!"
Fan Ruyin glanced at Madam Fan unhappily. Madam Fan had a smile on her face and spoke pleadingly. It was in public, so Fan Ruyin couldn't help but give her sister-in-law some face. She sneered and turned away.
What does her sister-in-law mean?
This Mrs. Shao and Lord Shao don't take their Fan family seriously at all. They do their best to humiliate the Fan family, causing the Fan family to suffer such a great loss and lose so much money. So what if she said a few sarcastic words?
Does the Fan family have to curry favor with her?
When did the Fan family become so spineless and so easy to bully? After being slapped, they have to put their faces forward to be slapped again?
Mother asked her to come as a guest today. Could it be that she really wanted to befriend her? My sister-in-law doesn't even know this?
Madam Fan greeted them politely along the way and invited Qiao Xuan and Madam Jia to Sifang Pavilion.
When the guests saw her, they came forward and greeted her with a smile. Qiao Xuan responded to them with a smile and sat down with Mrs. Jia.
Many ladies couldn't help but look up and secretly glance at Mrs. Jia.
Some people knew Madam Jia, but most did not. However, after today, they would all know each other. Madam Jia was now the wife of the governor, so of course things were different. In the future, if they invited Madam Shao to a banquet, they would definitely invite Madam Jia as well.
Whenever these families held a banquet, they would naturally invite the wife of the prefect. It was an honor for the wife of the prefect to come.
Some people couldn't help but look at Mrs. Guan. This former wife of the prefect was not a person who had a good temper. As expected, her face turned pale. Although she tried hard to look normal, she was still obviously abnormally tense.
Many people laughed in their hearts, but couldn't help but feel secretly excited and expectant: The Fan family specially invited Mrs. Guan as well, which clearly showed that they wanted to stir up trouble!
It seems that the Fan family really hates Mr. Shao and Mrs. Shao...
