Chapter 1830: Let’s Go Together Chapter 1830: Let’s Go Together Editor: Henyee Translations “If you’re unwilling to retrieve them, then so be it.
Why don’t we all go to the governnt office and stay together with them!
Sister-in-law, I’ll have to rely on you to manage the household!” Both families harbored resentnt towards this woman who married into the family, yet received preferential treatnt from the old lady.
She seed more like a true mber of the Fan Family than they did.
Fan Ruyin felt slighted by the implication but chose to remain silent, attributing it to envy.
She offered only a cold smile in response.
First Madam Fan said nothing further, leading her family to depart.
Second Mrs.
Fan swiftly followed suit, declaring, “Sister-in-law, we’ll accompany you.
Let’s go together!” “Very well!” “How dare you!” Old Lady Fan erupted in fury, slamming her hand on the tea table.
“Are you both plotting rebellion?” Second Mrs.
Fan defended, “Mother, why can’t we stand together as a family in tis of trouble?
It may alleviate so of Old Master’s embarrassnt.
At the very least, we can share in the burden.” First Madam Fan remained silent, though she silently concurred with the sentint.
Old Lady Fan glared at them, her gaze sharp with indignation.
She sensed their determination.
Furious, Old Lady Fan staggered backward.
They were all in open rebellion!
But she couldn’t possibly allow them to proceed.
It would be a complete loss of face for the Fan family.
“If you’re so concerned about losing face, then leave!” Old Lady Fan barked furiously.
With a scornful sneer, she declared, “I’ll go myself.
Let’s see if that Lord Prefect dares to detain too!” First Madam Fan and Second Mrs.
Fan exchanged a knowing glance and nodded in agreent.
They didn’t want to relinquish the silver without a fight, but the humiliation was unbearable!
Would Lord Shao even deign to speak reasonably?
Would he negotiate with them?
He had already subjected them to such humiliation; it was intolerable!
If Old Lady Fan personally intervened, Lord Shao wouldn’t dare risk the responsibility if she fell ill or suffered any discomfort while in the office.
He wouldn’t dare allow such a scenario to unfold.
Old Lady Fan’s heart skipped a beat as she considered the proposal.
It struck her as a brilliant idea.
Of course, she wanted to accompany her two daughters-in-law.
If she didn’t assert her authority now, when would she?!
“Prepare the carriage.
I’ll leave imdiately!” However, she deed it unnecessary for her daughters-in-law to accompany her.
As the matriarch of the Fan family, she needed to retain so semblance of dignity.
Unlike them, she couldn’t afford to compromise her standing.
Before they could act, the housekeeper rushed in.
“Old Lady Fan, First Madam, Second Mrs.
Fan, Mrs.
Bai, Madam Shao has arrived…” “What?!” Everyone was taken aback.
Fan Ruyin sneered.
“What audacity!
What is she doing here!” When the Prefect’s wife paid a visit, none dared to refuse her.
Old Lady Fan instructed the juniors to depart, leaving only her two daughters-in-law and Fan Ruyin.
She sneered, “Very well, let’s see what she has to say.
Bring her in!” The won of the Fan family awaited her arrival with simring resentnt.
Qiao Xuan ushered Lixia and Caiyue into the room, while Ah-Ye stood guard outside the door.
Typically, male servants weren’t permitted in the backyard.
But Ah-Ye’s intimidating glare dared anyone to challenge him.
First Madam Fan and Second Mrs.
Fan rose to greet Qiao Xuan, mindful that their husbands were still detained.
Fan Ruyin shot a disdainful glance at Qiao Xuan, her lips curling into a sneer.
Old Lady Fan, asserting her seniority, remained seated, unwilling to welco her.
