Chapter 1924 Reunion
Fifth sister-in-law's cooking skills are truly amazing!
Of course, Taotao’s cooking skills are also very, very good, and you will never get tired of eating her food for your entire life.
The three of them didn't rest for long. Without waiting for Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan to send someone to invite them, they came over as scheduled.
The servants and maids who came with them were not asked to serve, but were led downstairs to be entertained.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were still talking about it. This was truly a pleasant surprise for them!
Seeing them, Qiao Xuan smiled and said, "I was just about to ask someone to call you. Fortunately, you came. It saved me the trip!"
Yang Xiaoni smiled and said, "Isn't it because I miss my fifth brother's wife's cooking skills so much?"
Several people laughed.
Soon the hot pot was boiling, and all kinds of side dishes were prepared and served one by one. The difference was that before, only Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were eating, and the prepared dishes were all served in small plates, but now they were all served in large plates.
The more people there are, the more lively the meal will be.
Qiao Xuan is used to preparing a shuangyuan hotpot every time she eats hotpot, which is half spicy and half delicious, and today is no exception.
Everyone sat down and couldn't wait to eat. The thinly sliced mutton was put into the pot and changed color quickly. The shrimp balls were small and white. The long slices of pork belly were also cooked in a roll. They were dipped in sauce and were fragrant and delicious...
A few people chatted and laughed until late at night, when they finished the hotpot meal which could barely be considered a welcoming dinner.
Before going to bed at night, the two of them hugged each other and chatted after a gentle lovemaking. Qiao Xuan smiled and sighed softly. She really wanted to go back to Shaoding Village!
She missed her family and her own properties. After all, they were the first pot of gold she had built from scratch, which could not be compared with thousands of acres of fertile land or large estates elsewhere.
She really missed Fang and Taotao. Qiao Xuan was always grateful to Fang. There was no mother-in-law more reasonable than Fang. If it was Niu, Ma, etc., Qiao Xuan couldn't help but feel cold in her heart just thinking about it.
Only Fang Shi didn't stare at her dowry, nor did she urge her son to take a concubine when he became rich. When she bought so many barren hills and wastelands to reclaim, and bought the wasteland behind her own yard that was full of rocks and difficult to cultivate, countless people in the village laughed at her behind her back, saying that she was a daughter of an official family and knew nothing but wasting money. Niu Shi and Ma Shi even went to her mother-in-law's house to mock her, but her mother-in-law still indulged her and had no complaints...
Qiao Xuan remembered every single thing.
You have to know that this is not the modern era where women can be independent and have equal status. In this era, it is natural for Fang to interfere in anything she does.
Even if she takes a tough stance and finally wins it, it will still be a chaotic process that will leave her exhausted.
And she didn't have the support of her natal family, so how could it be easy to get a divorce? Even if she got a divorce, it was still very difficult for a woman to gain a foothold in this era.
Fortunately, none of this happened!
Even though my father-in-law is a bit of a bad person, fortunately my mother-in-law suppresses him, so I can just turn a blind eye and let it go.
Overall, she considers herself lucky.
Shao Yunduan embraced his wife, and some nostalgia flashed in his dark eyes.
He had never been back since he left home to take up his post in Beijing, and it had been three years. Although he was close now, an official appointed by the court could not leave his post unless it was for official business.
