He wasn’t losing anything by being inclusive and supportive. What was the significance of losing a little face? Why did he have to be so critical and create unnecessary trouble in life?

Eldest Uncle felt overwhelmed by distress.

Once the affairs at home were settled, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan paid another visit to the Qiao Family.

County Magistrate Qiao received them warmly, particularly Shao Yunduan, whom he tried to cultivate a closer relationship with.

Madame Qiao and her daughter were clearly displeased, but they had no choice but to put on smiles and pretend to like Qiao Xuan’s presence.

Observing their forced smiles, along with the expressions of discomfort from Qiao Kou and her mother, Qiao Xuan couldn’t help but feel an immense sense of satisfaction.

How wonderful it was that her husband had succeeded! Wasn’t it about time for them to accept it? What if her husband continued to excel and eventually became an officer in the governmental office? How would these people react then?

Qiao Xuan no longer felt the need to remain low-profile in front of them. She was determined to confidently challenge and confront them head-on.

Although it was not yet the right time to reveal everything, Qiao Xuan decided to make a bold move and leave a lasting impression on Madame Qiao and her daughter.

Qiao Xuan dressed elegantly on that day, wearing a rose-red embroidered chrysanthemum damask double-breasted skirt and an apricot-yellow pleated skirt with silver thread embroidery. She adorned her hair with golden and emerald jade hairpins inlaid with pink tourmalines, which complemented her stunning beauty.

With a light application of makeup powder and a gentle sweep of her crescent eyebrows, she radiated a natural and effortless charm. Her attire was not ostentatious, but rather tasteful and refined.

Yet, as Madame Qiao and the others laid eyes on Qiao Xuan, a sense of shock and discomfort filled their hearts. They had never seen her radiate such brightness before, and it made them uneasy.

Qiao Xuan’s presence commanded attention, particularly her captivating eyes that shimmered with a mysterious allure. She seemed ethereal and otherworldly, drawing the gaze of many.

Madame Qiao and the others were taken aback, utterly astonished.

This was not the timid and reserved girl they were accustomed to. Qiao Xuan had transformed into someone they could no longer ignore or underestimate.

Officer Qiao was both surprised and pleased by his daughter’s transformation. He had worried that Qiao Xuan’s presence might make Shao Yunduan feel disdainful.

However, it appeared that his concerns were unfounded.

In truth, Shao Yunduan had never harbored any disdain towards Qiao Xuan. When he saw how beautifully she was dressed, it took his breath away, and his heart raced with excitement.

As Madame Qiao received Qiao Xuan, her demeanor was no longer that of a timid individual. She conversed with a genuine smile, exuding newfound confidence.

Qiao Xuan remained confident and composed, her demeanor carrying a sense of quiet strength.

As she lifted her wrist, the sight of a pair of exquisite white jade bracelets caught everyone’s attention. The bracelets were new, radiant, and undoubtedly expensive.

Qiao Wei, who had never seen such beautiful jade bracelets before, couldn’t help but sneer involuntarily.

“Sister, now that you’re flourishing and transformed, it seems you’ve found support from a prominent figure,” Qiao Wei remarked sarcastically.

Qiao Xuan maintained her smile. “I am not seeking. It is just that my husband is successful and I am attached.’

The remark only served to further irritate the women.

They believed that a woman’s aspiration should be to marry a successful man and enjoy a better and more affluent life together.

Madame Qiao composed herself and responded with a forced smile, “1 understand your perspective, but it is important for married women to show proper respect and deference to their husbands. Your casual remarks may not convey the appropriate level of respect for your husband.”

Qiao Xuan smiled back. “My husband doesn’t mind.. He likes me being like this!”
