Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home - Chapter 43

43 Shao Yunduan’s Gentleness

As long as Qiao Xuan expressed herself voluntarily, the matter would be settled.

But Qiao Xuan did nothing.

Eldest Uncle felt very disappointed inside and sighed. “A family should be in harmony, and we should live in peace, and not split hairs. The second and the third section are not living a good life right now, and they have nothing to offer us. They would not hold back, if they really have something to offer.”

“My brothers keep saying that the Sixth Son is intelligent and he is learned. He is definitely going to have a promising future and he will help us too!”

Qiao Xuan looked up at Shao Yunduan subconsciously. But Shao Yunduan did not even move his eyebrows.

!!
He seemed to sense her gaze. So he looked up at her.

Both of them looked deep into each other’s eyes, and Qiao Xuan got slightly startled. She smiled at him and soon withdrew her look.

Shao Yunduan’s heart skipped a beat. He was taken aback too, and a look of gentleness flashed across his eyes.

Ms. Fang reacted vividly. She snapped. “I need their help? I have my own son who is definitely better than him! My son is already a Cultivated Talent and he is surely going to have a more promising future than him. I don’t care about their son!”

Elder Uncle frowned. “What are you talking about? Duan and Sixth Son are different! It is good that my brothers have such kindness.”

Qiao Xuan could not stand it any more. She stood up and said, “Dad, Mom, I am feeling tired. I will be off now.”

Before Eldest Uncle could say anything, Ms. Fang pressed down her anger and said in a gentle tone, “Go and take a break. Duan, keep her company!”

Shao Yunduan nodded and left with Qiao Xuan.

“That is what Dad is like. He is used to being a father for his brothers and sisters. You can simply ignore those terrible words he said to you. Don’t take them to your heart.”

Qiao Xuan threw a look at Shao Yunduan and smiled. “I won’t. I only listen to Mom’s words!”

Shao Yunduan was amused by what she said. He nodded. “Good!”

Qiao Xuan was not aware of and did not care how the argument went between Eldest Uncle and Ms. Fang after they left.

As long as her father-in-law did not interfere with her dowry, everything else would be easy to deal with.

As for his hints as either compliments or blame, she would ignore them all.

It was impossible for her to take those hints and act according to them.

The following morning, Ms. Fang said to Qiao Xuan in a staggering tone that they might have to share a few kilos of flour with the other sections of the family.

“Good girl, I know that it doesn’t make you feel good but your grandparents-in-law stressed to your father-in-law that he should take care of the other brothers and their families before they passed away. He has done more than enough and been used to showing such kindness to them. It is the other brothers’ families who are not good enough for us! Your father-in-law listened to their complaints and was sighing for the whole night…”

Ms. Fang was very happy to stop her husband from being too devoted to the second and the third section of the family.

But Eldest Uncle did not spend a peaceful night and she felt sorry for him in the end.

Qiao Xuan got what she meant. She was okay to share some flour, and she knew that her father-in-law was too old. It was not easy for him to change the habit so fast.

She was already very satisfied by what they had achieved this time around.

After this instance, the other sections of the family would understand that the advantages were not very easy to grab.

They would know more about this gradually.

Qiao Xuan smiled. “Mom, you are right. Let’s do this. You can have the right to take the call about whatever is happening here. You don’t have to tell me anything!”
