Chapter 898 She Forgot Everything
She and her mother-in-law depended on each other to raise their son, who was only seven years old at the time. If it weren't for this marriage, Qiao Xuan's biological mother gave her sixty taels of silver as capital, she and her mother-in-law would never have been able to afford to send their son to school.
Without this marriage, the clan would certainly bully them, the orphans and widows, and seize their land without scruples.
How could they have gotten to where they are today?
She even forgot that she had promised her mother-in-law before she died that after Qiao Xuan married into the family, she would treat her well and regard her as her own daughter.
She had forgotten everything.
Of course, Qiao Xuan was completely unaware of all this.
She only vaguely knew from the original owner's memory that her aunt was once quite favored, and she took advantage of her favor to ask her scumbag father for this marriage.
Perhaps because the other party was just an orphan and a poor widow, Mrs. Qiao was happy to oblige and agreed.
After that, County Magistrate Qiao left office, and she heard no more news about her fiancé and his family.
Madam Qiao and Madam Tang chatted for a while, then asked Qiao Xuan to toast Madam Tang: "She is an elder, and you two used to have a close relationship, so you should offer her this glass of wine. You don't know, right? Madam Tang is the mother-in-law of the marriage you promised before!"
"I knew it before," Qiao Xuan smiled, picked up the small wine glass with both hands, stood up, and said politely: "Aunt Tang, you are the elder, and it is courtesy and right for the younger generation to respect you. I wish you good health and longevity, and long-lasting blessings."
Although the marriage didn't work out, Qiao Xuan was really grateful to her.
Otherwise, where could she find Shao Yunduan?
Moreover, although this Mrs. Tang is not as bad as Mrs. Qiao, she is definitely not an easy mother-in-law to deal with. She is far worse than her mother-in-law!
Having a mother-in-law like this is really stressful.
Mrs. Qiao and the others were slightly stunned. They had wanted to catch Qiao Xuan off guard and make her make a mistake and look bad, but how did she know that?
Who told her?
Qiao Wei glared at Qiao Kou with a sharp look.
Qiao Kou was innocent. She hadn't seen Qiao Xuan at all today, so what did it have to do with her?
Mrs. Tang also felt a little uncomfortable.
She felt that it was Qiao Xuan's loss that the marriage failed and she missed out on such a good son.
Qiao Xuan should feel sad, depressed and lost.
But Qiao Xuan was so open and generous, and even blessed her with a smile, without revealing any of the emotions that she "felt she should" have.
This made her very unhappy.
She may dislike Qiao Xuan, but wouldn’t Qiao Xuan feel regretful and sad for losing such a good marriage?
Could it be that she actually looked down on her own family and her own son? This is really outrageous!
Mrs. Tang nodded slightly, raised her glass, took a sip, and smiled faintly, "Miss Qiao Er is very decent and steady. I guess you are living a good life after marriage, right?"
Qiao Xuan smiled and nodded: "Thank you for your concern, aunt. My husband, mother-in-law, and sisters-in-law are all very nice. Our family is very harmonious."
"That's good, I'm relieved! It was really hard to believe the news at that time. Miss Qiao Er should be more careful in the future."
"Thank you, aunt! I can't believe it either. The maid took me to the lake to see the fish, and then left, saying she was going to get some tea. I didn't see who pushed me into the lake from beginning to end, and I still don't know now!"
Mrs. Tang's face changed slightly.
"Okay, Qiao Xuan," Mrs. Qiao glanced at her coldly, "Don't talk nonsense."
