First Madame was very curious how on earth the couple were. She could meet Madame Qiao to see what on earth was going on with the family after all of

The Yuezheng Family was too far-reaching for Officer Qiao.

Officer Qiao’s usual tactics for dealing with wealthy individuals in the county did not apply to the Yuezheng Family.

During a conversation with the couple, Qiao Wei abruptly interjected, “Second Sister never socializes and she should have given you her bracelet, Mom. It was selfish of her to refuse.’

“Okay, Wei,” Madame Qiao glanced at her daughter and sighed emotionally, “I’m fine. That bracelet is exquisite and of a high grade. It could be worth more than 10,000 liang. If we sold it, we could use the money for Old Master’s business, and we would have much more spare money.”

Officer Qiao nodded in agreement, but he couldn’t help feeling greedy.

But he decided not to talk about this. “Xuan has never seen such nice things, so it’s understandable that she likes it. We can talk about it later.’

Madame Qiao also noticed her husband’s interest in the bracelet and smiled before saying, “You’re right, there’s no need to rush.”

Officer Qiao nodded in agreement, as he had more pressing matters to attend to.

He couldn’t help but harbor a grudge towards the Zhao Family for being so miserly. They had only lent them a few thousand liang, and even Old Master Zhao had claimed to be out traveling just to avoid meeting with him.

While Shao Yunduan might want to seek revenge and eliminate the entire family for his own gain, Officer Qiao did not share the same perspective. He had no intention of taking such drastic actions.

But, he would be leaving for the capital next year, so he saw no point in worrying about it

Officer Qiao consulted with the strategist and inquired about strategies to uncover any illegal actions committed by the Zhao Family. By doing so, he could have their enemies report them to the office for a fair trial, leaving the Zhao Family powerless.

Given the many terrible things the Zhao Family had done, it would not be hard to expose their wrongdoings.

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan speculated that Officer Qiao would use this method to deal with the Zhao Family.

Shortly after, Officer Qiao made the announcement and everyone became aware that Shao Yunduan was the Provincial Champion!

This was an unprecedented occurrence, as there had only been a few Recommended Men from the county but never a Provincial Champion.

The whole county got excited.

Everyone started to ask around who Shao Yunduan was!

Manager Qin from Mingren Tang spoke the loudest. As a good friend of the Provincial Champion, he talked about how interesting the champion was, bringing attention and reputation to Mingren Tang.

Meanwhile, Minghua College found itself in an embarrassing situation.

The three teachers were feeling uncomfortable.

They were just Cultivated Talents, while Shao Yunduan was now a Provincial Champion. They knew they would have to show respect to him whenever they met.

The memory of how the College forced him out and failed to set him up kept them embarrassed and anxious, fearing that Shao Yunduan might seek

revenge against them..
