Qiao Xuan sneered – neither of them was up to any good!
Qiao Xuan had never mentioned anything about her ex-fiancé, so Lixia had no idea either about what was going in her mind right now.
But now Qiao Xuan decided to tell her the truth.
Because even if she did not say a thing, Lixia would soon know about it.
“Lixia, do you know who Madame Tang and her son are?”
“l don’t know…
Lixia was confused – what did her miss mean?
Qiao Xuan smiled. “County Magistrate Yang is my ex-fiancé.”
“That is to say, if County Magistrate Yang and I had not broken off the engagement, Madame Tang would have been my mother-in-law.”
“What should we do? Miss, County Magistrate Yang is here too, what if Fifth
Young Master misunderstands us?”
Lixia got anxious instantly.
Look, even if Lixia was just a maid, she still understood the pros and cons. “We are here and can’t leave so easily. Also, what is there to be afraid of? But I know what is going on, and 1 have to do something about it. Go to Mingren
Tang Clinic and tell Manager Qin about this, and ask him to get someone to
Shaoding Village to tell my husband about it, too.”
“Okay, I will do that now.”
“Very good! ”
No one stopped Qiao Xuan when she asked Lixia to go out and buy stuff for her.
Soon Lixia arrived at Mingren Tang and pa.s.sed on Qiao Xuan’s message.
Manager Qin, who had been hoping for Qiao Xuan and the Shao Family to provide him with quality herbs, was taken aback when he heard the words. He couldn’t help but curse Madame Qiao for her wickedness.
“Don’t worry, Miss Lixia, I will go up to Shaoding Village now. I will go there personally.”
The fewer people who knew about this, the better. There would be some confusion when the message was pa.s.sed around, so he might as well go there personally.
Lixia thanked him and replied to Qiao Xuan.
What Qiao Xuan had not expected was that Liu Yan would have sneakily told her who Madame Tang was.
Shao Yunduan let out a sigh of relief when he heard the news in the intermediate of Shaoding Village.
Shao Yunduan thanked Manager Qin with a smile, which surprised Manager Qin. But seeing that Shao Yunduan trusted Qiao Xuan, Manager Qin let out a sigh of relief.
He had a very good impression of Qiao Xuan, and he admired her deeply. So he hoped that she and Shao Yunduan could get on well. Shao Yunduan did not seem so bothered.
The unknown should have been the scariest thing.
When he knew what was going on, he would not have to worry a thing any more.
He was not going to suspect Qiao Xuan because of this. Qiao Xuan had never met her ex-fiancé who had been engaged with her, and she was already married to Shao Yunduan himself. She treated him and his family so well, and he could see that clearly.
So how foolish he would have been to suspect Qiao Xuan and hurt her just because Madame Qiao tried to sow discord?
He could not bear to do that.
He was solely concerned about Qiao Xuan’s well-being and didn’t want her to suffer any harm.
If that was Madame Qiao’s intention, he believed she couldn’t harm him or Qiao Xuan.
In his perspective, he wasn’t even a significant presence. He was just an ex-fiancé whom Qiao Xuan had never met. How could she possibly have any feelings for him? It was a ridiculous notion!
Nevertheless, Shao Yunduan made up his mind to bring Qiao Xuan back home the next day.
She was his wife after all!
In the backyard of the government office.
Qiao Xuan attended the banquet alongside Madame Tang and County Magistrate Yang.
As n.o.body had introduced Madame Tang and her son to Qiao Xuan, she chose to feign ignorance about the matter..
