Chapter 936: Not Good
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
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 become successful in his studies, but her Second Son failed and her Third Son became an Advanced Scholar, which made Madame 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 time as an officer, so Madame Lady Qiao and her family became even more distant.
When County Magistrate Qiao was seeking to return to the capital, his two brothers cheated him of money. Madame 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 some home to show respect to mom! He only gives us three melons and two dates for the New Year and mom’s birthday every year. He is so heartless…
Madame 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 immediately put them in the category of those who tried to steal something from them.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan walked into the Qiao Family with Songshi and greeted Madame 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 mentally 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 member 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 esteemed 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 Madame 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!” Madame 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 time, 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?”
Madame Lady Qiao’s mothers and daughter-in-laws were left speechless.
Embarrassment flooded their faces.
Some matters couldn’t be disclosed, as they would only lead to humiliation.
However, this audacious son-in-law of the concubine’s daughter seemed shameless beyond measure. How uncouth!
It came as no surprise that he hailed from a small town.
It came as no surprise that he was merely worthy of marrying the Qiao Family’s concubine’s daughter!
