“Madame Qiao, please take care of yourself. Remember, Qiao Kou is not yet married, and she could use your support and guidance.”

“You!”

Qiao Xuan’s words pierced Madame Qiao’s heart, leaving her furious and distressed. However, she refused to let it bother her. Her intention was to provoke Madame Qiao, and seeing her infuriated brought her immense satisfaction. It also whetted her appetite for dinner.

“She is so malicious!” Qiao Wei blurted out, stumbling over her words. “No wonder I despise her, always have! Did you see that, Mom? She has never been this irritating before! I should have dealt with her even more harshly earlier!”

“Deer meat? She was just boasting!’

Qiao Wei reminisced about the time when her father’s servant hunted a deer and gifted them over 10 kilograms of meat. She was enchanted by its taste, and the memory lingered in her mind.

She couldn’t believe that Qiao Xuan’s brother-in-law could obtain deer meat. The idea seemed far-fetched to her.

Madame Qiao’s expression darkened. She couldn’t fathom that Qiao Xuan would lie about such a matter. If Qiao Xuan truly had a skillful brother-in-law who could hunt deer, it implied that he possessed exceptional hunting abilities and could provide them with a variety of wild game regularly.

Deer were notoriously challenging to hunt due to their cautiousness and swiftness. If Qiao Xuan’s brother-in-law could catch a deer, he would surely be capable of capturing smaller animals as well.

Yet, Qiao Xuan had never brought any wild animal for them.

Even if she claimed that her brother-in-law had acquired the deer the previous day, there was no evidence of it in the gifts she presented to them today!

Madame Qiao, filled with annoyance, turned to Auntie Ling and commanded, “Inform the Old Master about what Qiao Xuan said to us!”

“Yes, Madame Qiao!”

Auntie Ling was skilled in stoking the flames, and she was determined to do just that.

Word of this quickly reached County Magistrate Qiao’s ears.

He learned that Qiao Xuan’s brother-in-law possessed exceptional hunting skills, resulting in their consumption of wild game throughout the year.

Furthermore, it was reported that he had recently captured a wild deer. However, neither his daughter nor his son-in-law had considered offering any of it to him as a gift…

County Magistrate Qiao’s fury swelled upon hearing this news.

Initially, he contemplated sending someone to investigate the matter, but he quickly dismissed the idea. What purpose would it serve to delve into such a matter? Discovering the truth would be utterly humiliating.

Moreover, the story held an air of believability.

He had underestimated them!

Qiao Xuan had never been one to display modesty or honesty. She harbored numerous ulterior motives, and his wife’s judgment of her had never been wrong.

He decided to wait and see what Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan would do next. He was confident that they would eventually come begging at his door,  seeking his assistance!

So County Magistrate Qiao, who had been persuaded by Madame Qiao, wrote one letter to the Qiao Family in the capital, telling them to look into Shao Yunduan and give him a hard time…

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan left the mansion and Shao Yunduan took Qiao Xuan’s hands, saying, “What about eating at Restaurant Yanhe? Then we can go home after that.”

Qiao Xuan nodded with a smile. “Sure, I want the crispy duck from there. Let’s take one portion home! ”

The couple did not ask for a separate room after going into the restaurant, but chose a place in the hall.

Many people recognized Shao Yunduan, as did the manager of the restaurant, who greeted him happily.

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan went to the in-law’s family to give presents, but they did not even get to eat lunch at home. Soon the story would go that the couple were forced to eat at a restaurant..
