Chapter 2163: Old and Confused
Some families think that they can carefully select suitable girls from the family, educate and train them well, and they will always be useful in the future...
Qiao Xuan originally had her own solution. Although it might make people secretly dissatisfied with her, it would not give people an excuse to attack her openly.
But since Shao Yunduan had done this for her, she would not be hypocritical and say anything to refuse.
She just accepted his intention.
This feeling of being cared for by him actually made her feel very sweet and happy.
Qiao Xuan then held another grand banquet, inviting all the ladies and young ladies to attend and treating them warmly.
Naturally, all the ladies and young ladies came to support the party, eating, drinking, having fun, talking and laughing. The looks they gave Qiao Xuan were more or less a bit different and inquiring.
Some people were brave enough to try it out, but were pushed back by Qiao Xuan neither softly nor hard. They immediately felt embarrassed and dared not try again.
Otherwise, if you end up embarrassing yourself, wouldn't that be a joke to others?
Little did they know that Qiao Xuan was just hoping that someone would be the first to come forward, so that she could make an example of him.
As expected, when everyone saw this, they realized that Mrs. Shao was not so easy to mess with, and the boys did not dare to look down on her.
Others are fine, but Fan Ruyin and her daughter are going crazy!
Not only them, but also Old Madam Fan could not sit still and sent her trusted maid, Madam Liu, to come and take a look at the situation and help Fan Ruyin.
Fan Ruyin was already feeling annoyed, and she didn't seem very happy about the help she got. Instead, she found someone to vent her anger on. She sneered and told the situation, waiting to see what good ideas Madam Liu could come up with!
Aunt Liu was also a little dumbfounded.
People in the provincial capital may not know Mrs. Shao and Lord Shao, but who in Anze Prefecture doesn’t know them?
I thought Lord Shao is no longer the same as before, and would probably be different from before now that he is in high spirits and full of ambition. But I never thought... he is still so stubborn!
In fact, Nanny Liu was also a little puzzled. It was true that Lord Shao had won two battles, but he only occupied such a small territory. Not to mention compared with the three princes of the Great Qin, he was still far behind other major forces. Why did the old lady and the aunts care so much about Lord Shao, as if they were sure that Lord Shao would come out on top in the end?
I wish I could tie the entire Fan family and Lord Shao together tightly!
But who can predict such a thing? The old lady used to be such a smart person, why is she so confused now?
And the same thing goes for Auntie, how come she got up like this...
Relying on her status, Madam Liu couldn't help but persuade Old Madam Fan, but Old Madam Fan scolded her impatiently and told her to just do as she was told and not to worry about anything else.
Nanny Liu could only obey the order with full of doubts.
I thought that my aunt was forced by the confused old lady just like her. But now it seems that my aunt is even more anxious than the old lady!
This is really weird...
Madam Liu was indeed full of tricks, and she quickly gave Fan Ruyin some advice, "In that case, we should force Madam Shao to give in. As long as Madam Shao cares about her reputation, I don't believe she will do nothing!"
Fan Ruyin's eyes lit up.
He clapped his hands and laughed, "This idea is worth a try, but it has to be kept secret."
Aunt Liu smiled disapprovingly: "As long as there is money, of course it can be kept secret!"
Fan Ruyin then handed the matter over to Nanny Liu.
