Qu Shan and the coachman left from there when it was getting late.
Qiao Xuan put most of the stuff back into the room, and shared some with Ms. Fang and Ms. Xu. She asked Qi and Taotao to carry the tree buds into the garden. She was going to deal with them tomorrow.
Then, she shared the snacks with the entire family.
First Madame had given them two boxes of pastries, which were made by their special chef at the mansion. They were sweet and crispy and everyone loved how they tasted.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan felt assured hearing that everything was going well at home.
When they talked about how bustling the province was, Ms. Fang could not help but look forward to visiting there, let alone Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni.
They had never thought about this earlier, but things were different now.
Qiao Xuan smiled. "When it becomes warm next year, we will all go there for a trip, okay?"
Shao Sanlang and his wife were the most motivated when hearing the proposal.
Ms. Fang looked at the couple, hesitating. "But can we all really go there?"
Qiao Xuan smiled. Yeah, Mom, we can rent a wagon and will arrive within one day! Our whole family will go together. Anyways, we have enough money with us. We don't have to be worried about anything!'
Ms. Fang laughed. "Okay! We will all go there!"
The whole family laughed and talked, when suddenly Shao Liulang rushed in.
Everyone was startled.
Ms. Fang frowned and asked Ms. Xu and Yang Xiaoni to go make dinner.
Shao Yunduan was confused. "What is it?"
Shao Liulang looked so angry when he said, "Why didn't you tell me about going to Brother Yue's home for a visit?"
Shao Liulang had been suffering terribly ever since he got to know about it. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
He just could not help but imagine how Shao Yunduan stood out among all those excellent people, and he was so annoyed by this imaginary picture.
He was counting the days for Shao Yunduan to return, and the longer he waited, the angrier he felt. Hearing that Shao Yunduan was back, he could not wait even for a single moment to come over and accuse him.
"Fifth Cousin, your behavior is way over the top. Brother Yue and I are good friends too. So, how could you leave me behind? You are just jealous of me speaking vividly with him and fear that he will like me better than you!'
She could not help but look at Shao Yunduan with sympathy.
She and her husband were indeed a perfect match.
She had annoying sisters and her husband had stupid cousins.
Shao Yunduan looked at Shao Liulang coldly. "Are you mental? You should go and find your own friends!"
Yuezheng was not a very common surname, and Shao Liulang ignored the 'zheng' part of the surname when talking about it. This stupid cousin of his did not even know what his friend was called and he still insisted that they were friends.
Shao Liulang's eyes were widened. "How can you say that? Eldest Uncle…"
"Stop it!" Shao Yunduan's eyes sank slowly. "Shao Liulang, there is no use calling me my father. He can't make Brother Yue turn into your friend either. I suggest you study more and read more rather than befriend people. My friends are unrelated to you, and I don't care about your friends either.."
