Officer Qiao leveled a disdainful look at Shao Yunduan.
Stupid, annoying and narrow-minded man! He would never advance any further in his life!
Two liang was nothing! He did not give a d.a.m.n about the money. He cared about the connection with Young Master Yuezheng and the Yuezheng Family from the province!
That was the Yuezheng Family from the province! They had such a huge business even spread across the northwest, and they were in touch with the capital as well! They might not be as good as the Xie Family, but they could bring them great benefits if they built a friendship with each other!
He needed money to get himself back to the capitol.
This stupid man did not know anything about the Yuezheng Family. He had no idea what he had missed.
“If Young Master Yuezheng drops by next time, 1 should be informed directly, understood?”
“Yes, Officer Father-in-law!”
Officer Qiao frowned, thinking that this t.i.tle felt so annoying. But this low-cla.s.s countryside man was his son-in-law and he could not be stopped from calling him father-in-law.
Officer Qiao felt even worse.
“You remember the Young Master next to Young Master Yuezheng?”
Yuezheng Xiao was always together with Xie Jingrong, which was a fact and they knew that well.
Shao Yunduan nodded. “Yes, a very n.o.ble-looking, and handsome young master. But he doesn’t like to talk much.’
Officer Qiao snorted. That was Young Master Xie, the lineal eldest grandson of the real n.o.ble family. It was enough that he was seen by Shao Yunduan.
Officer Qiao thought to himself. ‘He would never talk with someone like you, stupid son-in-law!’
Shao Yunduan was very good at reading Officer Qiao’s mind. So, Officer Qiao did not doubt what he said.
He opened his mouth and closed again. He was not going to tell Shao Yunduan who Young Master Xie was. He did not deserve that! What was the point of telling him who Young Master Xie was?
Young Master Xie would not even lay his eyes on him or befriend him!
If Officer Qiao knew that Young Master Xie had given Shao Yunduan all the excellent sample texts and books and taken him to the high-profile gathering held for the literati, and even expressed that he wanted to help Shao
Yunduan’s younger brother Qi, Officer Qiao would probably vomit out blood.
Officer Qiao said, “Anyway, they are all n.o.ble people. You have to inform me when you meet again. Be careful not to offend them! Ddon’t be greedy so as to take advantage of them, understood?”
“Yes, Officer Father-in-law!”
Officer Qiao took a deep breath and was in a better mood.
But after a moment, he felt annoyed again when he thought of what he had missed.
This son-in-law of his was totally useless!!
Qiao Wei clenched her teeth. “You talked about watermelons?”
Madame Qiao was upset too, and threw a displeased look at the couple.
Shao Yunduan showed a confused look, and nodded. “Yeah…
“Why didn’t you deliver those watermelons to us?!”
Qiao Wei had been holding back this question for so long. She did not dare disturb her father when he was discussing serious business. When her father was finally done, she burst out.
Shao Yunduan still looked confused, asking hesitantly. “Those are just some wild-growing fruits from the fields, and can’t be used as a present. We did not dare give them out as presents to you. Do you like them? How unfortunate!”
Shao Yunduan looked as if he really thought it was unfortunate.
Qiao Wei was totally gagged with anger..
