Qiao Wei sneered. “Indeed, it was you who fell into the water and made up an excuse. Who pushed you into the water? Don’t talk nonsense, you must have misunderstood!”

Qiao Xuan had confronted Officer Qiao about the incident and had even pointed at Madame Qiao, but without evidence, Madame Qiao would never admit her wrongdoing.

However, County Magistrate Qiao must have started to harbor suspicions as well.

Qiao Xuan smiled. “I’m not a fool. I know perfectly well whether I tripped and fell or was pushed from behind. I don’t need any evidence! How absurd!

Besides, that’s all in the past, and there’s no need to dwell on it.”

Madame Qiao’s expression turned cold. “You’ve said your piece, and there’s no point in saying anything further! ”

Madame Tang grew anxious. Subconsciously, she began to suspect that there was something more to the situation, Subconsciously, she started to fear and be on guard against Madame Qiao.

Qiao Wei chimed in. “You must have misunderstood!”

Qiao Xuan smiled but remained silent.

The atmosphere at the banquet became increasingly tense, as the whole incident was stirred up.

Madame Qiao dared not say anything more. She could sense that Qiao Xuan was a woman capable of causing trouble! Continuing the conversation would only escalate matters.

Having spent a few days living with County Magistrate Yang and his mother, that was all she needed.

It was enough.

She didn’t believe that Shao Yunduan would remain indifferent.

The moment this thorn was embedded in Shao Yunduan’s heart, it would fester and grow. One day, it would be the downfall of this woman!

This woman was destined to marry a peasant and lead a wretched life. She didn’t deserve to be the wife of an official!

The banquet continued in an atmosphere of forced friendliness. Once the banquet concluded, everyone departed.

Qiao Xuan took Lixia back to the courtyard and closed the door.

Lixia let out a sigh of relief. “That’s enough for today, Mrs. Shao. What’s our plan for tomorrow? I don’t think Madame Qiao and Elder Miss Qiao are easy to handle.”

Qiao Xuan found it amusing.

Those mother and daughter were not to be underestimated. But it didn’t matter. She wasn’t someone to be trifled with either.

“Perhaps we’ll leave tomorrow.”

Shao Yunduan would probably come to pick her up.

Lixia’s face lit up. “That would be wonderful!”

The next day, after breakfast, Madame Qiao prepared to take them out.

As Madame Tang was a devout Buddhist, Madame Qiao and Qiao Xuan accompanied her to pay respects at the temple.

County Magistrate Yang, always dutiful to his mother, rode alongside her in the wagon.

As they boarded the wagon, Qiao Xuan caught sight of him and exchanged a fleeting glance.

In that moment, Qiao Xuan quickly averted her gaze, inwardly cursing.

She was far from pleased.

Officer Yang was an intriguing man as well. Women were off-limits, and she was a disgraced girl who was once his fiancée. Shouldn’t he keep his distance?

Filial piety? Qiao Xuan couldn’t quite grasp its meaning.

Madame Tang, true to her devotion, engaged in conversation with Madame Qiao at the temple before proceeding to pay respects to the Buddha.

Madame Qiao accompanied her, instructing the three sisters to wander around casually and nonchalantly.

Qiao Wei rolled her eyes at Qiao Xuan, snorted in disdain, and haughtily departed.

Qiao Kou pondered for a moment and obediently followed suit..
