Chapter 1967 Leaving the Person Behind
"I think Madam Shao has also heard about it... This matter is all our Lu family's fault! It was our Lu family that reacted too slowly, and almost damaged Master Shao's reputation. Here, I apologize to Madam Shao and make amends to Master Shao!"
Qiao Xuan didn't care whether she was backing down to advance or not. Since she apologized, she would accept it without hesitation.
"Your Lu family really reacted too slowly to this matter. Our masters were too busy and really didn't know about it. The same goes for me. If I had known about it earlier, I would have come forward to refute the rumor. Since you knew about it earlier, even if it was difficult to do anything, why didn't you send someone to tell us?"
"You didn't do anything, but you let the rumors run rampant and hurt your girl's reputation? You are really wrong about this matter!"
Madam Lu had a choked expression on her face, and a hint of surprise.
".....Yes, Mrs. Shao, the lesson is..."
Qiao Xuan: "So you're here today to apologize for this? That's not necessary! Our master has already debunked the rumor. He's not a petty person. It'll be fine once the misunderstanding is resolved. He won't blame you."
Madam Lu: “….”
Mrs. Lu was speechless!
Qiao Xuan has finished speaking!
But thinking about what her sister-in-law had said, Mrs. Shao still had to say what she should say even though she had said so much.
However, Madam Lu didn't dare to say any nice words or try to retreat in order to advance anymore, because Madam Shao didn't buy it at all.
She had no choice but to pretend that she didn't understand what Qiao Xuan meant. She looked at her with a frank and sincere expression, "Thank you, Lord Shao and Madam Shao, for your generosity. It's just that... not everyone in the world is as tolerant and generous as Lord Shao and Madam Shao. There are many foolish people in this world! Things have left traces, and there are always some people who still mock and attack our Third Miss. The words they say are really ugly... Poor Third Miss, she has to suffer such an injustice for no reason!"
"Madam Shao, I came here today to ask you shamelessly, Madam Shao, to keep our third girl!"
"Our third daughter has been taught by the "Female Rules" and "Female Training" since she was young. She is very well-behaved and knows a few words. She can help Madam Shao with her worries. Please rest assured, Madam Shao, if she gets married, she will listen to Madam Shao in everything from now on. She will follow Madam Shao's arrangements and will ask Madam Shao for permission on everything. She will never do anything that Madam Shao doesn't allow!"
"I just ask Madam Shao to let her stay so that she can at least have a place to stay and shut up those who are gossiping! I beg Madam Shao to be kind..."
Lu Xianyun looked up at Qiao Xuan with a pitiful look, then lowered her head obediently, knelt down silently, and lowered her humble posture to the dust.
Qiao Xuan said nothing.
Madam Lu said again, "I'm going to say something that's beyond my imagination. Madam Shao, please don't blame me for being nosy... Lord Shao is very talented, young and promising, and has a bright future. One day, it's possible that he will be the highest official in the government. Now there's no one around Lord Shao, but in the future... when his family is big and his position is powerful, Madam Shao will be too busy to take care of him, and there will always be someone around him. Rather than having someone who is unknown and difficult to control come in at that time, it's better to prepare for it now."
"I dare not say anything else, but I can guarantee that our third daughter will be loyal to Madam Shao and will obey you in everything! You just need to discipline her, and the Lu family will never say no."
