Yuezheng Xiao still did not want to leave after dinner. He looked hesitant.
That was quite surprising.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan felt that something was wrong. Yuezheng Xiao must have something to say.
Something was not right…
Or he would not have been so embarrassed…
“Brother Yuezheng, why not have the talk in the study?”
Shao Yunduan suggested.
They could talk about anything they wanted.
Yuezheng Xiao bursted out. “No need, no need, we can just talk here…”
That meant that Qiao Xuan could join them.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan exchanged a look between themselves, and they became even more confused.
“Brother Yuezheng, just say it!’
“Yeah.” Qiao Xuan smiled. “Don’t hesitate, you have to tell us sooner or later.”
“Sigh!” Yuezheng Xiao felt like bursting. True, they had to know sooner or later.
“Brother Shao, Sister-in-law, I do have something to tell you about your family. But everything is fine now, you don’t have to worry about anything!’
The couple was startled. Shao Yunduan lowered his voice. “Brother Yuezheng, please speak clearly.”
“Okay, okay, don’t worry, everything is fine now. I promise!l should have told you a few days ago, but because of the imperial examination, I made up my mind to conceal it from you, Brother Shao!”
It was a long story and it had something to do with the Zhao Family.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan had arranged everything well. Everything should have been fine.
But… on the day when Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni went into the town to buy stuff, something happened.
The family could afford enough food these days, and because of Qiao Xuan’s cooking skills, everyone was greedy for meat.
Ms. Fang was not stingy either. She could afford the food, so she decided to have a good time.
They were able to live generously, so she did not want to behave like a poor family.
Every now and then, Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni went into the town to buy meat.
Though Ojao Xuan was not around, Yang Xiaoni and Taotao could copy her by adding a lot of seasonings and spices, and if they could keep the meat fresh, then the big fire over the stove should be able to make the fish taste great.
Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni always went into town smoothly but there was one time when they ran into Zhao Guanghua with Taotao and Q).
Zhao Guanghua stared at Yang Xiaoni without moving.
He knew that Qiao Xuan was Officer Qiao’s daughter and Shao Yunduan was the Cultivated Talent, so even though he liked that girl, he could not possibly force her. So he just sneaked around.
But his servants, She and Dou, found him very distressed these days, and saw how he looked at the girl from the countryside. Hence, they decided to kidnap Yang Xiaoni and deliver her to their young master’s side.
Yang Xiaoni was beautiful and dressed in a very lovely way. She liked desserts and pastry, so the two servants believed that Yang Xiaoni must be a lazy person. Otherwise, how could some wife from the countryside be so well-dressed and would like to spend so much money buying snacks.
It must be the wife who was greedy that her husband had to buy those things for her, since she was very pretty..
