Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At that moment, a surge of jealousy washed over Yinxing. She couldnât help but feel envious of Qiao Xuanâs fortunate circumstances.
Soon after, Shao Yunduan departed.
He had no curiosity about what transpired in the room after he left. All he knew was that he needed to return to his wife promptly. The alcohol he consumed weighed heavily on him, causing a slight dizziness he could no longer tolerate.
After Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan finished freshening up, they went to bid farewell to Madame Qiao.
County Magistrate Qiao remained asleep in the study.
Madame Qiao was pleased to learn they had come to say their goodbyes, but when they stood before her as if nothing had happened, she furrowed her brow. âWhere is Yinxing? Xuan, now that Yinxing has become Yunduanâs woman, you should treat her well and fulfill your duties as a proper wife!â
âMadame Qiao, please refrain from making baseless assumptions.â Qiao Xuan smiled. âYinxing may have become my fatherâs new concubine. Madame Qiao, you can send someone to the study to confirm. As a proper wife, I assure you 1 will treat Concubine Yinxing with kindness.â
âWhat do you mean?â
Madame Qiaoâs heart sank as she glared at the couple.
Shao Yunduan spoke up, âl drank excessively last night, so I retired to my room. Yinxing is tending to my father-in-law in the study.â
Madame Qiao remained speechless.
A chill ran down Madame Qiaoâs spine. âFine, fine! How dare you!â
Qiao Xuan responded calmly, âIf my father fancies her, let him keep her. Itâs pleasant to have a beautiful concubine by his side, providing comfort and delight. You neednât worry about my husband. I will keep him company in the capital.â
Madame Qiao.
âJust leave!â Madame Qiao stormed out in anger, paying no attention to Qiao
Xuan and Shao Yunduan as she made her way straight to Officer Qiaoâs study.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan exchanged glances and chuckled. Qiao Xuan spoke, âSeems like nobody has the time to entertain us. Letâs go.â
âAgreed.â
The two of them departed from the county officeâs backyard, leaving the scattered chicken feathers behind.
âŠCounty Magistrate Qiao basked in satisfaction after the nightâs events. He felt rejuvenated, as if he had shed a decadeâs worth of burden in a single night.
The feeling was invigorating.
County Magistrate Qiao woke up at dawn and immediately understood the reason for his elevated spirits. He had held his alcohol well and hadnât passed out the previous day.
Madame Qiao stormed to the door, her anger palpable, nearly startling County Magistrate Qiao.
It was about to become quite lively.
Madame Qiaoâs fury reached its peak, leading to a heated argument with County Magistrate Qiao and a desperate attempt to harm Yinxing.
Initially, County Magistrate had harbored a hint of guilt, but Madame Qiaoâs words kindled an intense rage within him. While he respected Madame Qiao as the matriarch, it didnât grant her free rein to act as she pleased..
