Chapter 76 - 76 Qiao Xuanʼs Confirmation

76 Qiao Xuan’s Confirmation

Shao Yunduan shrugged his arms. “Well, there is nothing I can do about it!”

Second Uncle and Third Uncle got very annoyed. “Brother, what do you think of this?”

“What do you want my dad to do about it?” Shao Yunduan said coldly, “We are all from the Shao Family, and Brother Dali is not outside the family either. You are trying to make us offend our family members?”

Eldest Uncle opened his mouth and closed it. “What about this, Ms. Qiao, you can ask Second Uncle and Third Uncle to offer some help tomorrow too. They are elderly people of the family and you should pay them well.”

Qiao Xuan said, “Oh, but I don’t have any money right now. If our uncles want to offer help, they will only get paid when I have money.”

Normally, that basically meant that she was not going to give them any money.

Second Uncle and Third Uncle got very annoyed. They immediately turned down the idea.

Qiao Xuan spoke up again. “I just don’t have any money right now.”

She had no money and the uncles should not possibly force her to offer money, right?

Shao Yunduan was standing next to them, and as a Cultivated Talent, Second Uncle and Third Uncle did not dare to counter Shao Yunduan. So, they kept making complaints to Eldest Uncle instead.

But Qiao Xuan did not care. If her father-in-law was lectured by his two brothers, it was not her fault. She was not that kind as to stop them.

After all, it was her father-in-law who was willing to get blamed because of his ‘kindness’. There was no other way they could do it and get away with it if not for his willingness.

Ms. Fang could not stand it any longer. She came over and drove away Second Uncle and Third Uncle, who left in a fury.

Eldest Uncle was so annoyed. “Yunduan, you are a learned man, and you should understand that we need to have a harmonious family. How could you have said something like that to our family members?”

Qiao Xuan, “…”

She just ignored this blame, because it was not pointed at her.

She was not going to make a connection.

Shao Yunduan said, “Family members should understand each other and know how they should love their family. Second Uncle and Third Uncle are just confused at the moment and soon they will understand what is going on.”

Eldest Uncle, “…”

Qiao Xuan almost burst out into laughter.

Second Uncle and Third Uncle got so annoyed that together with their wives, they went around the village and spread the rumor that Qiao Xuan was not treating her family well.

Everyone knew what the second and the third section of the Shao Family were like, so they all laughed away the rumor.

Some who were jealous of the first section of the Shao Family added some fuel to fire, but those who sold things earlier did not say anything more after being countered by Qiao Xuan a while ago.

Qiao Xuan had bought wood from them and paid them!

Qiao Xuan had even told them that she was going to offer a lot of chances for more money-making.

So, they were not going to earn her money and gossip about her at the same time.

Shao Dali and his wife as well as the cousin’s family were all on Qiao Xuan’s side. They were so used to the work and Qiao Xuan continued to hire them. It was so much less painstaking. They were not outsiders, and how could hiring them be something that was not reasonable?

Qiao Xuan had a regular schedule of buying wood every evening and those who wanted to sell, would meet her at the determined site. When the bee box that was booked before was delivered to them, she put the 30 boxes up in the predetermined place. After that, she went into the mountain with Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao to find the honeycomb.

Flowers and bees were not only for the honey. The most important part was that she was going to get bee wax, pomegranate flowers and rosebush, to make lipsticks from those red flower juices and essential oils.
