Chapter 2310: Both Acting and Standing
No one dared to talk nonsense about such things. Besides, people like Lu Min who knew some past events about County Magistrate Qiao and the Qiao family naturally knew that what the Qiao family servants said was true.
Even though Qiao Xuan has severed ties with County Magistrate Qiao and has no connection with the Qiao family anymore, County Magistrate Qiao is Qiao Xuan's biological father after all. If the Qiao family insists on saying this outside, who can do anything to them?
Someone went to ask Lu Min about it, but Lu Min didn't know what to say, so he just smiled and let everyone just watch!
Everyone who should understand this understood it: Mrs. Shao was most likely the daughter of County Magistrate Qiao, but their relationship was probably not very good.
After further inquiry, I found out that Mrs. Shao was a concubine's daughter. Oh, that made me understand even more...
However, even though everyone understands, the Qiao family is happy to jump around like this, so everyone should just watch and no one will expose their true colors or go against them.
Who knows if Mrs. Shao will soften her heart?
Besides, it was one thing for Mrs. Shao to dislike them, but she might not be willing to see someone bully them. After all, he was her biological father.
Mrs. Qiao and Magistrate Qiao's family just took on the role of kings and, needless to say, they did gain a lot of benefits and conveniences from it.
In addition, there were many opportunists who were unaware of the inside story and took the initiative to curry favor with him.
County Magistrate Qiao acquiesced to this.
As for Mrs. Qiao, while she was taking advantage of this, she hated Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan even more.
This time when they went to Hangzhou, Mrs. Qiao, Qiao Wei, and Qiao Wei's husband Miao Cong all went with them. Mrs. Qiao instigated County Magistrate Qiao a lot, asking him to capture Qiao Xuan on this trip, otherwise her reputation would be ruined!
She used to be a lowly concubine who didn't care about her reputation, but now, it's different. Now, her reputation can't stand the slightest tarnish.
Otherwise, Shao Yunduan might not be satisfied with her!
You know, what kind of daughter of a famous family does Shao Yunduan want to marry now? Does he have to marry her?
She also has to see clearly that if she doesn't have the support of her mother's family, she will be doomed sooner or later!
Therefore, she not only had to respect them, but also had to honor them. She had to give official positions to County Magistrate Qiao, members of the Qiao family, and even Mrs. Qiao's family, the Dong family, and help them find their son. Only in this way could her position be consolidated.
Otherwise, let’s see how long she can be proud!
She had said it long ago that the higher Shao Yunduan's status and the more powerful he was, the more dangerous and embarrassing her position would actually be.
She was a legitimate wife who didn't even have a family background. In the eyes of Shao Yunduan's concubines, she was a joke!
Don't say Shao Yunduan won't take a concubine, how could it be possible? At this point, even if he wants to win people's hearts, he will be very happy to form alliances with many big families. Then, marriage is undoubtedly the most convenient and most reliable method.
Shao Yunduan can get a beauty and the support of a powerful family. Why wouldn't he do such a good thing?
If he wants to fight for the world, he will definitely do this!
County Magistrate Qiao had heard these words so many times that he couldn't help but become eager to take action. He felt confident that he could convince Qiao Xuan by going to Hangzhou.
Mrs. Qiao felt conflicted again. She didn't know whether she was hoping that Shao Yunduan would conquer the world or not.
In short, everyone in the Qiao family started to show off their power. Even Qiao Wei's husband's family, the Miao family, became extremely arrogant and did many overbearing things.
County Magistrate Qiao knew Lu Min, and the Qiao family’s steward also knew Lu Min’s steward. So, when they met, he didn’t give the man a good look!
