Qiao Wei was very pleased to see Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan having a hard time. So, Zhao Guanghua was going to get some news out of the guy in front of him to make her happy.
Shao Liulang would never say anything good about Shao Yunduan.
He kept complaining about Shao Yunduan, and described how distressed he was after he was expelled.
Zhao Guanghua was very glad to hear the news.
Soon, he narrated the whole story to Qiao Wei.
Qiao Wei was glad to hear this. She was now sure that Shao Yunduan was never going to become a successful man in the future and Qiao Xuan would live the rest of her life as a rough, ordinary countryside bitch.
But Qiao Wei and Zhao Guanghua soon would know that what they wished would not turn out to be true.
Shao Liulang was so glad to see Zhao Guanghua inviting him intimately. He believed that he was now considered a good friend of Zhao Guanghua.
He thought of Zhao Ming whom he fell for, and kept sucking up to Zhao Guanghua, implicitly saying that he wanted to visit the Zhao Family.
He really wished to go there, and most importantly, he wished to meet Zhao Ming again.
He and Lady Zhao must be destined to see each other. Lady Zhao beamed at him last time and they might get a chance to have a chat today.
Lady Zhao was definitely going to be moved by him and then, he was going to ask his mother to hire a matchmaker who could help them establish the marital relationship.
The more he thought about this, the more happy he became.
But he did not have a good residence. He wished that he could have an equally good house like that of the first section of the family.
Shao Liulang started to feel jealous again.
But Zhao Guanghua did not care about Shao Liulang at all.
Even though he was not a smart guy, he could sense that Shao Liulang wished to visit his home.
However, Zhao Guanghua ignored his suggestion.
He was not going to let anyone in his house!
Zhao Guanghua did not even turn him down with excuses. He just snapped at him, saying that it was not a good time, stopping Shao Liulang from saying anything more.
Shao Liulang felt very disappointed, but soon, he got increasingly motivated.
He believed that good things never came easy, and that it must be the barriers he needed to overcome for his relationship with Lady Zhao. As long as they loved each other and never gave up, they would definitely get married in the end…
Shao Liulang was definitely good at making up stories!
In the middle of the last month before New Year, the Yuezheng Family asked Qu Shan to pass on some gifts to the first section of the family.
First Madame prepared things which included 150 kgs of silver-frost charcoal, two hand heaters, two copper soup pots, several pieces of deerskin and sheepskin for boots, several pieces of fox, mink, squirrel, and rabbit fur for clothes, and thick four pieces of snow cloaks and cloaks for men and women. Her gift also included 15 kgs of fine pearl rice, 15 kgs of glutinous rice, pastries and candies, dried seafood, a whole slaughtered sheep, two roasted suckling pigs, fine wine, and a box containing fashionable silk flowers from the province, four sets of skin care creams and powders, several toys and so on.
There were not any precious items such as gold, silver, gemstones and jade, but these were all practical things.
Especially silver-frost charcoal, hand heaters as well as the cloaks. They were exactly what they needed.
Everyone in the family had a share, for example, the cosmetics were for the girls.
Xie Jingrong also had presents prepared for them.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were very surprised by what they received.
First Madame was just too generous at this point.
Ms. Fang was startled by the presents. But Qiao Xuan explained and said that they helped the Yuezheng Family last time when they were in the province, thus this was the reciprocity that they received. The two families would hang out like friends in the future.
Only then did Ms. Fang feel assured..
