“Also, I will never mention your name, either.”
Ms. Yan let out a sigh of relief, but felt her legs getting weak. She said gratefully, “Thanks, Fifth Sister-in-law, for your kindness…”
Qiao Xuan smiled. “I should thank you for telling me this.”
Ms. Yan did not have to get involved in this. If she kept this to herself, no one would know about it ever.
Ms. Yan smiled. “I would feel uneasy in my heart if I kept it to myself…’ That was true.
Qiao Xuan asked a few more questions about this, and Ms. Yan gave her as many details as she could. Then, she left when there was nothing else to share.
The moment she left, Qiao Xuan went to Shao Yunduan.
She needed to tell Shao Yunduan about this as early as possible.
Shao Yunduan got so furious that he struck his hand hard on the table, looking lethal and cold.
Qiao Xuan’s heart throbbed. She shivered. She had never seen Shao Yunduan getting angry like this.
Even on the wedding night when she almost killed herself… he had not been this angry.
“You…” She tugged Shao Yunduan’s sleeves with some hesitation. “Darling, don’t be too angry. Elder Brother is getting better, right? Anyways, what do you intend to do about it?”
Shao Yunduan was not going to let it go so easily. Qiao Xuan could tell that from his expressions.
Unfortunately, there was no evidence, and the Land Officer as well as the widow were two special status people, very difficult to deal with.
Shao Yunduan calmed himself down and turned to look at Qiao Xuan gently. “I have my own thoughts about this. You should pretend as if you never heard about this. Be sure not to tell Mom and Elder Sister-in-law.”
He did not want this to spoil her ears. Mom was impulsive and she should not learn about this. The Elder Sister-in-law was pregnant and she must be kept away from this as well.
He should be the one who should take revenge.
Seeing Shao Yunduan’s look, Qiao Xuan understood that her husband planned to do it in secret. After all, there was no open method that could be used for revenge.
“But you should be careful not to get involved.”
He had a promising future, and he should not bet on it. If lost, he might lose big!
Shao Yunduan nodded gently. “I know my limit. Don’t worry.”
Qiao Xuan smiled but again asked in confusion. “Do we have any grudge with
Widow Sun for her to do something like this?”
What made her so angry that Window Sun would combine forces with the Land Officer to set up her family? Shao Dalang was the victim this time, what about next time?
If she dared to do that once, what would stop her from doing it again?
The threat should be removed, or they will never have a peaceful life.
Qiao Xuan did not think that the grudge would have originated from the time when she argued with her along with mother-in-law, a while back.
Villagers always had disputes with each other, and they would still talk normally after a few quarrels. They even hung out normally. Nobody became each other’s worst enemy.
Shao Yunduan had been studying at the college in the town and was devoted to examinations. He knew nothing!
Hearing her question, he got confused too.
Qiao Xuan said, “I can ask Mom or Elder Sister-in-law about this implicitly.
Maybe the Elder Sister-in-law knows something.”
Shao Yunduan thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
He was curious, too.
“Don’t rush into it. Ask when you have the chance, otherwise they might sense something to be amiss.”
Qiao Xuan chuckled. “I know.. I am good at it!”
