Chapter 2329 Meeting
No one may be able to say other things, but everyone can praise Mrs. Shao!
So they all started laughing and praising Qiao Xuan.
One person praised, and a group of people nodded in agreement; another person continued to praise with a smile, and another group of people agreed with him. They were all talking with gusto and completely ignored the topic raised by Mrs. Qiao.
With so many people here, who would be so stupid as to bring up such a taboo topic? Who would be so stupid as to ask Mrs. Qiao about Mrs. Shao's past?
This is the stepmother who is obviously biased, not the biological mother.
Soon, other guests arrived. Everyone greeted each other, talked and laughed, and the atmosphere became much more lively.
There is no need to face Mrs. Qiao and her daughter alone.
As for whether Mrs. Qiao and Miss Qiao would gossip about Mrs. Shao with other ladies, no one could stop them.
Mrs. Jia, who knew Qiao Xuan well, sneered in her heart, thinking, you guys are really brave, just wait and see...
Gradually, most of the people have arrived.
Yang Hexi's mother, Mrs. Tang, also came.
No one knew that Qiao Xuan was once her son's fiancée and almost became her daughter-in-law.
After Yang and Xi arrived in Hangzhou City together, Mrs. Tang subconsciously felt a little ashamed of herself.
It's not that she wasn't jealous or hateful anymore, but it was only during this journey that she realized that Shao Yunduan now owned such a huge area!
The prosperity and wealth of Hangzhou City was beyond her expectations. She heard that Jiangning City, Yangzhou City and Suzhou City were no less prosperous than Hangzhou City, and many towns in the south of the Yangtze River were also equally wealthy and prosperous.
And all of these are now under the jurisdiction of Shao Yunduan.
Mrs. Tang was shocked.
Along with the shock came a deep fear.
Jealousy is still there, but this layer of jealousy has been intimidated and dare not express it easily. Instead, it is buried deeper in the heart.
This kind of jealousy makes people feel powerless and desperate.
If she was still in Changlin County and still felt indignant and unconvinced, thinking that her son was much better than Shao Yunduan, and that Shao Yunduan had only gotten to where he is today by luck and by taking shortcuts, then now she had to admit, no matter how unwilling she was, that her son really couldn't compare to Shao Yunduan in this respect.
She was disheartened and even wanted to return to Changlin County as soon as possible and never go out again. She also didn't want to know anything about Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan.
Save yourself from being upset.
She secretly swore that after she returned, she would train her grandson well, so that he would surpass her and win her honor!
If she can raise her son into a successful person, she will surely be able to raise her grandson as well.
Today's banquet lasted for a long time before Mrs. Tang left.
Now that I'm here, if I don't take a look at her, I'm afraid I'll be even more unwilling when I go back!
Mrs. Tang was one of the last women to arrive after a long delay.
When she just arrived, Qiao Xuan happened to be there too.
All the ladies came today just for Qiao Xuan. Upon hearing this, they all stood up and went out to greet her with smiles on their faces.
Mrs. Tang, who had just been led to the Bisi Pavilion by the servants and had not had time to be introduced, was very embarrassed. She had to go out with everyone before she could say a word.
Qiao Xuan was accompanied by a dozen maids including Lixia, Liqiu, Caiyue, etc. The ladies came slowly. They called out "Mrs. Shao!" and knelt down to greet her. However, Mrs. Qiao and her daughter and Mrs. Tang did not move.
