Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 1870: Knowing Her Mistake Chapter 1870: Knowing Her Mistake Editor: Henyee Translations “In all our years, the Fan family has never encountered such a situation… The Bright Moon Villa in the southern suburbs boasts picturesque landscapes, perfect for leisurely activities.

I wish to extend an invitation to Madam Shao and a few other madams to enjoy the scenery.

It’s also an opportunity for me to offer my sincere apologies to Madam Shao and mend any grievances between us.

Sister-in-laws, I implore your assistance in this matter.

It’s for the betterment of our Fan family…” The two Madam Fans harbored no suspicions upon hearing this proposal.

Upon reflection, they deemed it a splendid idea.

First Madam Fan, in particular, nodded with genuine agreement.

“Absolutely!

Though I hesitate to admit it, we must tread carefully around Lord Shao and Madam Shao.

Consider the events at Giant Rock Gorge.

Hundreds of bandits fell to Lord Shao’s forces.

Their leader is either dead or incarcerated.

Only a handful managed to flee!” “Those bandits were formidable, yet Lord Shao proved even more formidable!

It would be unwise to provoke him.” “Madam Shao has endured much from our family.

It’s imperative that you extend a sincere apology during this outing.

Let’s hope Madam Shao is merciful and refrains from targeting our Fan family in the future…” Feeling a twinge of guilt, Fan Ruyin dared not dispute First Madam Fan’s counsel.

She offered a forced smile and humbly acknowledged her lesson learned.

Seeing Fan Ruyin’s newfound humility, First Madam Fan was greatly pleased and decided to treat her with kindness.

Fan Ruyin was ecstatic and wasted no time in urging First Madam Fan to set a date for the gathering in the coming days.

With the weather being favorable, she emphasized the importance of not delaying the arrangements.

First Madam Fan readily agreed.

The following day, she approached Qiao Xuan in the backyard of the state office, extending the invitation with a warm smile.

She invited Qiao Xuan to join them at the Bright Moon Villa in the southern suburbs in two days’ time.

“…The weather is delightful, perfect for a leisurely outing.

Our estate boasts splendid scenery, and I invite Madam Shao to experience it firsthand.

Additionally, I wish to express my sincerest apologies for the incident at the banquet.

I also hope Madam Shao will grant us the opportunity to sketch together…” Qiao Xuan graciously accepted the invitation with a smile, assuring her presence.

First Madam Fan was elated.

Showering Qiao Xuan with compliments, she departed with a contented smile.

Since the harrowing events at Giant Rock Gorge, numerous ladies had come to pay their respects to Qiao Xuan.

She could discern a palpable shift in their attitudes towards her, marked by newfound respect and admiration.

In the past, politeness may have been merely superficial, but now it emanated from the depths of their hearts and bones.

Lixia, Liqiu, and the others rejoiced for their Old Master and Madam.

Their Old Master’s competence surpassed mere appearances, rendering superficial displays obsolete.

They dared anyone to belittle their Madam henceforth… Upon Shao Yunduan’s return for lunch, Qiao Xuan relayed First Madam Fan’s invitation to venture outside the city for scenic enjoyment and a visit to their estate.

Shao Yunduan’s expression soured.

“The Fan Family knows no bounds.

Inviting you out of the city for a leisurely excursion… I can’t fathom their intentions!

Don’t entertain it!” His wife wasn’t naïve!

Even within the city limits, Shao Yunduan couldn’t assert complete safety, let alone venture beyond its walls.

Having decisively quashed the villages’ arrogance this time, inflicting heavy losses and debilitating their strength, he knew they would harbor intense animosity.
