Qiao Xuan slowly awakened, realizing it was already close to noon.

Liqiu and Lixia efficiently managed the household chores and even took care of purchasing vegetables.

Songshi lazily sat beneath the eaves of the east wing, casually munching on melon seeds to pass the time.

As a seventh-grade editor, Shao Yunduan couldn’t bring a follower to work. Thus, Songshi had nothing to occupy him after accompanying Shao Yunduan to Hanlin Academy every day.

Observing his idle state, Qiao Xuan thought about starting a shop or acquiring some land for a business venture. This would provide Songshi with tasks and responsibilities. Otherwise, he would have little to do for extended periods.

However, Qiao Xuan worried that if he had too much free time, he might be influenced by others and led astray. Being a ten-year-old boy, the dazzling allure of the capital could easily overwhelm him.

Given that he was one of Shao Yunduan’s men, they couldn’t afford to take any risks.

Having made up her mind, Qiao Xuan planned to discuss with Shao Yunduan the idea of purchasing a small shop to test the waters and determine what kind of business to undertake.

Nevertheless, she didn’t rely on this venture to generate income.

Since Qiao Xuan woke up late, she combined breakfast and lunch. However, her appetite was lacking at the moment. Therefore, she asked Lixia to prepare a bowl of prawns, meat slices, mushrooms, and vegetables.

The wheat in the northern region yielded robust grains, resulting in sturdy handmade noodles. Despite her reduced appetite, Qiao Xuan devoured a large bowl of them. It seemed she had expended quite a bit of energy the previous day, warranting some nourishment.

Unexpectedly, as she finished her hearty meal and admired the flowers and plants in the courtyard to aid digestion, a knock echoed at the courtyard door.

Songshi finally had a task to attend to. He eagerly rushed to open the door with great enthusiasm.

An elderly woman accompanied by a maidservant stood at the door. She exuded a sense of dignity, but her expression held a hint of arrogance. With disdain in her eyes, she looked at Songshi.

Though inwardly irritated, Songshi refrained from throwing a tantrum. He couldn’t afford to delay matters concerning the masters. Suppressing his displeasure, he put on an obsequious smile and asked, “May I ask where you are from, madam?”

The old woman snorted. “I am from the Qiao Family. Your madame knows who I am. Tell her to come out.”

Songshi was taken aback but managed to maintain a lazy expression. Not wanting to make any mistaken moves, he replied, “Which Qiao Family? The one on West Sixth Street in Liuzhi Alley?”

The old woman sneered. “Yes, that’s the one.”

Songshi’s smile immediately vanished as he nonchalantly said, “Very well, please wait. I will report this.”

He abruptly closed the courtyard door, paying no mind to the old woman’s reaction or feelings. Rushing over, he informed Qiao Xuan, “Madam, the Qiao Family is shameless. They have come again. What should we do?”

Qiao Xuan smiled and replied, “Since they are here, let them in.”

With a clap of her hands, she turned and walked into the house.

It was impossible to ignore them. Ignoring them would only fuel their persistence.

Qiao Hongxi must have informed Shao Yunduan about the situation when they encountered each other at Hanlin Academy.

The Qiao Family had arrived swiftly.

Although Songshi had agreed to let them in, he had no intention of disregarding the old woman. He proceeded to open the door.

The sudden closure of the door startled the old woman. When she saw Songshi, she glared at him and coldly demanded, “Where is our Second Miss? The old master and madam specially sent me to convey their message. Yet, Second Miss displays such an attitude? Does she no longer value filial piety or Fifth Master Shao?”
