Eldest Son was the lineal son and she relied on him, so she valued him the most. Second Son was obedient and had a bad health when he was young, so she spent a lot of efforts to take care of him, so the mother and the son had a very deep relationship.
Her Eldest Son was the lineal elder son, and she had to take care of her Second Son, so her Third Son was neglected. She had intended to let her Second Son beco successful in his studies, but her Second Son failed and her Third Son beca an Advanced Scholar, which made Mada Lady Qiao feel very annoyed.
It was as if she had proved that she had bad taste.
Also, County Magistrate Qiao spent most of his ti as an officer, so Mada Lady Qiao and her family beca even more distant.
When County Magistrate Qiao was seeking to return to the capital, his two brothers cheated him of money. Mada Lady Qiao knew about this, but pretended not to know.
Later, her two daughter-in-laws gossiped behind her back and said, “l didn’t expect that Third Son is so rich outside. We don’t care, but he doesn’t even know how to send so ho to show respect to mom! He only gives us three lons and two dates for the New Year and mom’s birthday every year. He is so heartless…
Mada Lady Qiao agreed deeply. She got even more annoyed and disliked County Magistrate Qiao even more.
Therefore, no one in the room was nice to Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan. It was not difficult for Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan to cause trouble at the door.
Hearing the gatekeeper’s report, the two of them did not have a wagon, but only a pageboy who was following them. He was dressed in ordinary clothes and did not have any precious things. The whole family imdiately put them in the category of those who tried to steal sothing from them.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan walked into the Qiao Family with Songshi and greeted Mada Lady Qiao.
Instantly, countless pairs of eyes turned to the couple.
Those eyes were not polite at all. They were probing and sized up brazenly.
If Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were not ntally strong enough, they would have shivered under their stares.
But they held a strong dislike for the Qiao Family, harboring no intention of bowing down to them. Their tolerance had reached its limit.
Qiao Xuan, a mber of the Qiao Family, remained silent, unable to utter a word. Observing the situation, Shao Yunduan arched his eyebrows and sneered. “How impolite of you! Is this how the esteed Qiao Family treats its guests? Ha!”
A collective gasp resonated through the room.
Everyone stood there, stunned and speechless.
“Heh!” Second Mrs. Qiao huffed in disdain.
First Mada Qiao also smiled, mocking Shao Yunduan. “Impolite? You have quite the audacity!’
Shao Yunduan scoffed. “If the Qiao Family looks down on us, they could have asked us to leave. Such despicable behavior!”
“How dare you!” Mada Lady Qiao’s anger surged. “How dare you disrespect your elders! You have no manners!”
“Elders?” Shao Yunduan retorted. “l have been here for a considerable amount of ti, yet no one bothered to introduce you. So who exactly are the elders?
Where are they? I waited at the entrance for quite a while before entering.
What is the Qiao Family up to?”
Mada Lady Qiao’s mothers and daughter-in-laws were left speechless.
Embarrassnt flooded their faces.
So matters couldn’t be disclosed, as they would only lead to humiliation.
However, this audacious son-in-law of the concubine’s daughter seed shaless beyond asure. How uncouth!
It ca as no surprise that he hailed from a small town.
It ca as no surprise that he was rely worthy of marrying the Qiao Family’s concubine’s daughter!
