“Absurd!”
The two Qiao Family patriarchs grew infuriated by their impudence. Reluctantly, the brothers signed the contract and sneered. “How did the Qiao Family produce a daughter like you? When Third Brother and his wife return, I will certainly inquire about this as their elder brother!”
Shao Yunduan took the letter and began reading it.
Qiao Xuan maintained a calm smile. “Sure, go ahead and ask them. If it’s convenient, you can even let me know their responses. I’m curious to see how they’ve been educating their children all these years.”
The two Old Masters stood dumbfounded, caught off guard by Qiao Xuan’s audacity.
Madame Lady Qiao grew increasingly annoyed. “Just leave already!”
Shao Yunduan gently pulled Qiao Xuan. “Let’s go.”
Qiao Xuan nodded and followed him, without casting a backward glance.
The Qiao Family seethed with anger, hurling curses at Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan for their unreasonable behavior. They continued to blame County Magistrate Qiao and Madame Qiao for raising such a rebellious girl. It was utterly humiliating!
Suddenly, Second Mrs. Qiao smiled at Qiao Hongxi. “Oh, by the way, Hongxi, you seemed familiar with them. Have you met them before?”
Madame Lady Qiao also recalled. “Yes, Hongxi, how did you come across them?”
Qiao Hongxi felt somewhat embarrassed. He had been humiliated by Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan right before his eyes. Therefore, he vaguely replied, “I bumped into those two individuals on the street, and they ended up accusing and scolding me.”
“I knew they weren’t good people. They’re just troublemakers!”
Madame Lady Qiao displayed a look of disgust. “Bitches will always be bitches! They’re foolish and despicable! I was concerned they would continue to bother us, but it seems it’s all too easy!”
“If anyone dares to approach our doorstep again, instruct the gatekeeper to drive them away immediately!”
They all nodded in agreement.
Old Master Qiao chimed in, “Mom, Shao Yunduan appears to be dim-witted, and he’s certainly not qualified to become an Advanced Scholar. After the spring examination, they’ll leave the capital and never return. Let’s just pretend they don’t exist. I don’t think we need to inform the clan about this. What do you think?”
Removal from the clan was a significant matter. They would have to report the reasons to the relatives within the clan, and both parties would provide a clear explanation in person. Then, the clan would decide whether to proceed with the removal.
Although the Qiao Family had the final say within the circle, going through the motions to formally remove Qiao Xuan from the clan would still bring humiliation to the Qiao Family if word got out.
It wasn’t pleasant to have raised such a mischievous daughter within the Qiao Family.
Madame Yuezheng pondered for a moment and nodded. “Alright, that’s a fair deal for her!”
As soon as Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan stepped out of the Qiao Family, they clung to each other, crying in each other’s arms. They gazed up at the gate of the Qiao Family, tears streaming down their faces.
Shao Yunduan wore an expression of fury as he patted her back, gently comforting her.
Willow Branch Alley was a bustling and populous street, filled with residents and numerous small vendors who frequented the area to sell their wares.
Everyone enjoyed watching a spectacle.
Many household servants and maidservants couldn’t help but gather around, whispering to each other with curiosity.
