Chapter 557: It is better to be careful than to be careless
Is she someone who can comment on Qiao Xuan?
This person has no self-awareness at all, which is really annoying.
Fang didn't want to say anything more. "Qiuyue, I have to go to the vegetable garden. Look--"
Ding Qiuyue knew that many people in the village looked down on her as a concubine, and even she herself felt ashamed because of this.
Fang's attitude is considered to be friendly.
If she doesn't know what's good for her, no matter what others say, she will have to bear the consequences.
Besides, her goal has been achieved. Seeing the current situation of the Shao family and knowing that Qiao Xuan is not having a good time in the Shao family,
"Auntie, please go and get busy. I should go back too!"
Ding Qiuyue stood up with a smile and took Hongyu away.
Fang saw her out and closed the yard door.
Hongyu curled her lips and said disdainfully: "What's so great about a country farmer?"
Ding Qiuyue glanced at her, smiled faintly and said nothing.
It's already amazing for a rural farmer to live like this! If she had a choice, she would wake up with a smile even in her dreams if she could have such a life.
When she got home, Ding Qiuyue asked Guan to hire a bullock cart to take her back. She was determined not to stay any longer.
She can't get used to living anywhere else, so why is she staying here?
Guan wanted to keep her for two more days so that she could chat with her about the Zhao family and the gossip about the rich families in the city. She loved listening to these things, which she couldn't hear on weekdays.
But her daughter insisted on leaving, and she couldn't stop her and had to give up.
So he repeatedly told Ding Qiuyue to serve the master well and try to have a child, preferably a boy.
Ding Qiuyue became impatient and interrupted her soon.
The master will be fifty next year and his eldest grandson is already twelve years old. How can he let her get pregnant? She doesn't have any hope!
Along the way, Ding Qiuyue secretly pondered how to tell her master when she returned.
After returning to the Zhao Mansion, Master Zhao soon called her over.
Butler Zhao had not inquired too much about the Shao family before. After all, a peasant family in the countryside was not worth his effort.
Ding Qiuyue has been in the Zhao Mansion for many years and doesn't know much.
I only found out when I went back and told Mrs. Guan about it.
Mr. Zhao was also a little surprised. It turned out that Lord Qiao's unfavored concubine's daughter had married the son of that family.
"Shao Wulang's wife is the second daughter of the Qiao family. I dare not make my own decision, so I came back to ask the master first."
After all, they are government officials, so it is better to be careful than to be careless.
Mr. Zhao nodded to her with satisfaction: "You are very careful and did a good job. Have you asked around? How is Mrs. Qiao doing in the Shao family?"
Ding Qiuyue's eyes flashed with disdain, and she smiled and said, "It seems not so good. When I mentioned Miss Qiao Er, her mother-in-law Fang's face turned a little unhappy. I asked a few questions casually and learned that she still had to work in the fields at Shao's house."
It can be seen that the Shao family did not treat her as the county magistrate's daughter at all.
Mr. Zhao sneered and didn't think there was anything wrong.
Miss Qiao Er is an unfavored concubine's daughter, far inferior to Miss Qiao San who is also a concubine's daughter. What's the point of having the title of a county magistrate's daughter?
If the Shao family finds out that no one will make decisions for her and that she cannot bring any benefits to the family, then what's so strange about them bullying her?
As for what Butler Zhao had learned about Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, who had been to Zhangjia Village several times to manage the business, Master Zhao subconsciously assumed that it was Shao Yunduan who made the decisions in managing the business, and Qiao Xuan was just serving him.
