Chapter 637 Provincial Capital
As for the fact that Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan did not show up, everyone did not find it strange. They thought that they were clearly embarrassed. They understood!
On the Qiao family's side, Lord Qiao knew that it was not right to force money from the wealthy families, so after asking for so much money, he was very tactful and kept a low profile and was very quiet, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible.
He also told Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Wei to do the same, telling them to cancel all banquets and social events and stay at home.
At least you must not keep a high profile in these few months.
Mrs. Qiao used the excuse of worshiping Buddha and stayed at home.
Even if Magistrate Qiao didn't say anything, she would be too embarrassed to go out as a guest again. She cheated so many people out of so much money, and she knew that she was definitely not welcome at this time.
Since she didn't go out, Qiao Wei naturally didn't go out either.
But Qiao Wei still hoped that Zhao Ming and other close friends would come to visit her, but unfortunately, no one came.
Qiao Wei also felt a little disappointed. She sneered and mocked those people for being short-sighted and only seeing the tiny profits in front of them.
Being able to make friends with her is a blessing they have cultivated for several lifetimes, but they don't know how to cherish it! When she returns to the capital next spring, humph, they will have no chance to curry favor with her even if they want to!
They will regret it later!
You know, she is going to marry into the Marquis's Mansion.
The homes of the rich and powerful in the capital city are places that the daughters of small-town rich men like them could never even dream of!
Qiao Wei was still dreaming, but she didn't know that her marriage was being watched gloomily and madly by Qiao Kou's eyes in the dark.
When Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan arrived in the provincial capital, they moved into the house given to them by the Lezheng family.
The large house, which covered an area of more than seven acres and had three courtyards in front and back and a small garden, seemed quite deserted with only the four of them living in it.
Fortunately, Le Zhengxiao knew that they would arrive in the next two days, so he ordered people to clean the entire house in advance, and also left a doorman and two maids to help with the rough work.
Qiao Xuan and the others wouldn't be in such a panic.
The next day, Shao Yunduan asked the doorman to deliver visiting cards to Le Zhengjia and Xie Jingrong to inform them, and then he bought a fifteen or sixteen-year-old servant from a human trafficker and named him Songshi.
In this way, I will have someone to help run errands temporarily.
Le Zhengxiao and Xie Jingrong both replied to the message, saying that they would get together the next day.
Madam Le Zheng sent Nanny Hua and two maids to visit Qiao Xuan, bringing her a lot of food and daily necessities. She smiled and said that she would send someone to pick up Qiao Xuan to visit her house the day after tomorrow.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan both agreed.
I rested at home that day and did not go out.
It was the first time for the two of them to visit the house, so they had to walk around the house and the garden.
According to the maid who stayed to help, the house was decorated by Madam Le Zheng herself.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan came over and saw that the place was very considerate and attentive, and everything they needed was available. All the daily necessities had been arranged five days ago.
There are quite a few flowers and trees in the garden, some planted, and some placed in large and small pots of bonsai. It can be seen that they have all been carefully cared for and trimmed.
At this time, crape myrtles are in full bloom, roses are in full bloom, and trumpet creepers, hydrangeas, gardenias, azaleas, jasmines, wisterias, etc. are in full bloom. Tall osmanthus trees, purple locust trees, elms, maples, ginkgo trees, magnolias, willows and other trees cast thick green shades to drive away the sultry summer heat.
There is also a square pavilion of about six or seven square meters in the northeast of the garden, with its back against a tall rockery.
