Shao Taotao grasped the point Qiao Xuan made.

“It’s even more exhausting than working in the fields!”

Working in the fields had never made her feel tired!

Qiao Xuan suppressed her laughter. “I’m not seeking friendship from anyone, so let’s be open about getting to know each other. If someone has high standards and wants to make things difficult for us, we don’t have to accommodate them. So, don’t be nervous.”

Ms. Fang felt relieved and replied with a smile, “That’s true!”

As they discussed the wealth of the Xie Family, Ms. Fang couldn’t help but sigh once again. She had never imagined that such a family could exist in this world…

Taotao couldn’t help but envy them. No other family could compare to the Xie Family.

Despite their limited experience, they could sense that this was what a true aristocratic family was like.

The following day, accompanied by Shao Yunduan, they visited the Yuezheng Family as guests and spent half a day in the city. Ms. Fang expressed her desire to go to Lingyuan Temple to burn incense and pray, so they all decided to go together.

Ms. Fang was concerned about her family and felt it was best to return home as soon as possible. After all, there were only two girls at home, and while staying for three or five days was fine, it wouldn’t be ideal to prolong their absence.

Everyone agreed.

After a few days in the provincial city, they had eaten their fill, bought what they needed, and indulged in some shopping. They were content and it was time to return.

After Qiao Xuan and Ms. Fang paid their respects at the temple, Shao Yunduan took Qiao Xuan to explore the back of the mountain.

The lush green pines and bamboo covered the mountains, while the spring water cascaded over rocks. Birds chirped, and flowers swayed in the breeze. The two of them strolled, talking and laughing. Occasionally, Shao Yunduan would wrap his arms around Qiao Xuan, showering her with affectionate kisses, causing her cheeks to blush. As they descended the mountain, Qiao Xuan happily held a large bouquet of flowers he had picked for her.

It was a sight filled with vibrant colors and beauty.

When Yang Xiaoni saw this, she envyingly asked for some to share, but Qiao Xuan came up with an excuse to brush it off.

Yuezheng Xiao could send word to Shaoding Village to inform them when the people who had gone south returned. Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan couldn’t afford to wait here indefinitely.

First Madame understood their limited time and expressed her wish for them to stay a few more days. After all, it was a rare opportunity for the family to be together in the future. She had already arranged many gifts for Qiao Xuan to take back and urged her to rest at home once she returned to the capital.

Qiao Xuan nodded, smiling in agreement.

Upon their return to the village, Ms. Yang came to visit them. Yang Xiaoni offered her one of the items she had purchased as a gift. Although Yang Xiaoni still owed Ms. Yang three liang, Ms. Yang refused to accept the money. She kindly remarked that it was a small favor and didn’t warrant repayment.

Yang Xiaoni politely declined, expressing her gratitude with a smile.

It wasn’t that they were greedy for the money, but everyone in the first section of the family was well-off and didn’t need to be concerned about such small amounts.

However, Ms. Yang’s reasoning was sound, so Yang Xiaoni graciously accepted it.

Yang Xiaoni gave Ms. Yang two packets of candied fruits, along with melon seeds and peanuts, which Ms. Yang accepted with a smile.

Qiao Xuan also presented Ms. Yang with a pair of silk flowers, two powder boxes, and a pair of silver bracelets.

Since Ms. Yan had always maintained a good relationship with the first section of the family, Ms. Niu, although resentful, recognized the benefits of maintaining a positive rapport. Therefore, she refrained from scolding Ms. Yan over this matter.
