Chapter 922: Unwilling

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

County Magistrate Qiao, frustrated with the situation, snapped at Madame Qiao instead.

Madame Qiao found herself powerless against Yinxing, who enjoyed the protection of her husband.

Yinxing knew that her sole supporter was County Magistrate Qiao. After what she had done to Madame Qiao, she suspected that Madame Qiao wanted her dead.

Yinxing was no Concubine Du. She possessed youth, beauty, and a cunning nature. In a calculated move, she l,vept before County Magistrate Qiao, feigning weakness and eliciting his pity.

County Magistrate Qiao, having finally found such a captivating woman, refused to relinquish the pleasure he had been denied for so long.

Furthermore, Qiao Xuan’s revelations had dispelled any illusions he held about his wife’s virtuousness. Therefore, he took precautions and ensured the safety of Concubine Yinxing.

Madame Qiao’s annoyance grew to unprecedented levels. She was consumed by anger.

Her fury was so intense that she contemplated sabotaging her own position.

She refused to give up until she dealt with Yinxing.

However, time and again, she failed in her endeavors.

Thus, County Magistrate Qiao’s household became a hotbed of tension and conflict. His wife and concubine engaged in heated battles.

Concubine Du took pleasure in Madame Qiao’s misfortune. Although she couldn’t openly act against Madame Qiao, she constantly fed information to Concubine Xing, further exacerbating Madame Qiao’s distress.

Madame Qiao directed her anger towards Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, attempting to take it out on the innocent members of the Shao Family.

However, County Magistrate Qiao remained vigilant. Madame Qiao found it difficult to exert her authority in the governmental office, and not everyone in the household obeyed her commands.

No sooner had she given an order than County Magistrate Qiao was informed of her actions.

County Magistrate held on to hope for Shao Yunduan and was determined to prevent any offense against him.

Madame Qiao had only Auntie Ling and a few trusted men by her side.

However, their expedition to Shaoding Village yielded no advantage.

The Land Officer would handle matters concerning the first section of the Shao Family.

Before their departure, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan shared a few additional details with Ms. Fang.

Auntie Ling had no intention of deceiving anyone.

Madame Qiao grew increasingly infuriated.

Unable to find an outlet for her anger, she caught a cold and fell ill.

In May, when County Magistrate Qiao traveled to the capital, he was still unwell.

The County Magistrate even suggested that she stay in the county to recover, with Qiao Wei taking care of her. They could join him in the capital once she regained her health.

However, before he could finish speaking, Madame Qiao snapped at him.

Madame Qiao persistently referred to Concubine Xing as a derogatory term, likely an idea planted by Concubine Xing herself.

She continued to curse County Magistrate Qiao.

She was adamant about not staying behind with her daughter for recuperation. Clenching her teeth, she resolved to accompany them to the capital.

Things began to improve as they journeyed onward

Her condition improved slightly, but her body was weakening. Fatigue had taken its toll, leaving her lacking energy and frayed nerves. Qiao Xuan was taken aback the next time he saw her.

Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan reached the province in the evening and settled in at the Yuezheng Family’s residence.

Aware that their arrival was imminent, First Madame had already made arrangements for their accommodations.

She held genuine affection for Qiao Xuan, and if Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan treated her as an outsider, it would deeply hurt her.

They spent three days in the province, during which Qiao Xuan and Yuezheng

Xiao decided to purchase tea leaves, snow fungus, and lipsticks. Yuezheng Xiao could arrange for someone to directly buy these items from Shaoding Village..
