Chapter 130 - 130 Elder Miss Qiao's Request
130 Elder Miss Qiao’s Request
Everyone was startled. But they did not think that County Officer Zhang was setting up a trap for Shao Yunduan. Instead, they believed that County Officer Zhang was helping Shao Yunduan to stand out, so that he could behave well in front of the public.
They could not help but feel jealous again.
This man had found a huge shelter for himself!
Look at him! After he became related to the County Magistrate, even the County Officer was trying to help him…
That was what Shao Liulang thought as well.
He felt more jealous than anyone else.
Shao Liulang threw a look at Shao Yunduan, but smiled. “County Officer, my cousin isn’t so good at it. What about me doing it in place of him?”
County Officer Zhang was startled, and Shao Yunduan fell into silence.
He also wished that Shao Liulang could stand out for him.
However, Qiao Wei was not pleased. She said loudly, “That doesn’t work. You aren’t part of our family, you can’t replace him. What about you making a couplet instead?”
Qiao Wei turned to Qiao Xuan and smiled. She looked intimidating.
Qiao Xuan only had a little knowledge about characters, and she had never learned how to write poetry or lyrics, nor had she been taught how to play the zither, chess, or write calligraphy or draw. It would be great to see her humiliated in public!
No one dares to utter a sound any more.
That was Elder Miss Qiao’s request, which no one dared to counter.
Yuezheng Xiao couldn’t help but snort, but he was very interested in watching the show.
Xie Jingrong could not help but glance at Qiao Wei, thinking that this Elder Miss Qiao was so stupid.
She had showcased her real intentions.
But did she realize that if she humiliated her sister in public, her father would be humiliated too.
It seemed that Officer Qiao wasn’t so good at governing the family.
He was suddenly reminded of another Miss Qiao whom he ran into, and he felt even worse about this family.
Officer Qiao’s face had sunk. He raised his eyebrows and glared at Madame Qiao.
But Madame Qiao did not catch his message, since she was concentrating on something else.
Officer Qiao became even more furious!
This daughter of his was too spoiled by her mother, so that she had become arrogant and freewilled. Yes, he was the head of a county. Did that mean she could do whatever she wanted?
What about when they went back to the capital? This behavior would bring them so much trouble!
He had to discipline her when they returned…
Madame Qiao was also sighing inside her heart at the moment.
She had spoiled her daughter so much that she could not tolerate a thing. She was venting her anger at the moment.
She was just thinking about embarrassing Qiao Xuan through her husband, just to make her sad, but what about her father?
That bitch was also her father’s daughter!
Madame Qiao knew that her husband would have given her a warning look, but what could she do right now? Her daughter had already spilled out the request, and anything she did would mean a slap on her daughter’s face.
There was nothing she could do.
She had to pretend not to have caught her husband’s message.
Hearing that Qiao Wei was trying to humiliate Qiao Xuan, he got anxious and angry, so he immediately retorted. “Wormgrass in front of households, folks cheer for the race of dragon boats! Sorry I am not that good at it, but here is your order, County Officer. I just made one randomly.”
Under normal circumstances, when Shao Yunduan was done making the couplet, the whole thing would be over.
But Qiao Wei did not want to drop it. She chuckled at Qiao Xuan. “It is your turn, Sister. Make one to cheer everyone up!”
