Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 339: Back To The Qjao Family

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

She had younger siblings, so she needed to take care of them and had helped with housework as well.

Ms. Xu had a younger brother and a younger sister, but the family was doing okay. Her parents favored the son but not in an extreme way. Ms. Xu was not incapable either.

Ms. Xu’s sister married someone better, so she kept showing off whenever they ran into each other at their mother’s home. But this time, Ms. Xu was no longer demeaned.

She was so happy to see how jealous her younger sister was of her.

But she was not that stupid as to reveal everything to her family and her sister.

Still, she was very happy inwardly. Her sister would be so jealous of her if she really learned how much money she had saved and how well she was living.

The following day, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan went into the town and gave presents to Officer Qiao.

Liu Yan followed along.

Qiao Xuan could have forced her to stay, and find an excuse to counter Qiao Wei. But Qiao Xuan knew her sister well. The more you tried to conceal some secret from her, the more she would pick on you. So, she brought Liu Yan with her and let her ask whatever she wanted to know. In this way, Qiao Wei would drop the intention of asking more.

“Remember what I told you to do?”

Qiao Xuan threw a very calm look at Liu Yan.

Liu Yan was startled and nodded nervously. “I do. Don’t worry, Second Miss, I remember everything…

Liu Yan had already lost the intention of causing trouble since she had been through so much and was threatened by Qiao Xuan.

Also, she had become more down-to-earth than before. Second Miss and the whole family treated her relatively well. Although she was stuck with all kinds of housework, they did not hit her.

More importantly, the Second Miss was not less powerful than the Elder Miss. If she became really angry, she could definitely ruin her!

Qiao Xuan added. “Good. You should never reveal the secret when we are at the Qiao Family. You don’t have to respect me and my husband there. Act casually, purse your lips and roll your eyes whenever you want it, understand? You can just tell Qiao Wei whatever she wants to hear, and you can even mock us.” Shao Yunduan almost burst into laughter.

But Liu Yan could not laugh at all. She nodded constantly. “Yes, yes…”

She was actually feeling quite nervous inside her heart. She had never expected that there would be a day when she was going to lie to Elder Miss.

The couple went to buy presents in the town.

They bought some boxes of pastries, two jars of wine, and two chickens.

That fit the status of the Shao Family and it looked as if the Shao Family had spent a lot of money sucking up to the Qiao Family. Otherwise how could a poor rural family afford to buy so many presents?

Shao Yunduan looked at Qiao Xuan and wanted to hold her hand, but stopped himself after all. “We only stay for a while and will leave soon. Don’t be angry no matter what they say.”

Qiao Xuan smiled. “I won’t, and you should not either!”

Shao Yunduan nodded and they smiled at each other.

They knocked at the gate of the mansion and the guards let them in.

Seeing Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan holding the things in their hands whilst the maid Liu Yan was empty-handed, the guards at the gate could not help but look disdainful.

Second Miss was such a failure.

Even the Elder Miss’s cat was more precious than Second Miss, and Liu Yan was Elder Miss’s maid, what could Second Miss do about her anyway?

The guards felt jealous.. It seemed that Liu Yan must have been acting like an arrogant miss at the Shao Family!
