Chapter 1860: Clearly a Troublemaker Chapter 1860: Clearly a Troublemaker Editor: Henyee Translations Furthermore, highway robbery seemed to be a favored pastime for those scoundrels.

It wouldn’t do to air their dirty laundry in public.

How could First Old Master Fan and Second Old Master Fan confess to the shopkeepers that their sister had provoked Madam Shao, leading to her retaliatory actions?

All they could do was offer reassurance to the shopkeepers, urging them not to fret.

If the issue wasn’t significant, the Fan family would resolve it swiftly.

However, to forestall any potential trouble, they would advise their employees to be more alert and proactive… Moreover, they should strive to avoid confrontation.

If troublemakers showed up, they should be promptly escorted off the premises, regardless of the cost… Upon hearing this, the shopkeepers grew increasingly uneasy.

They were astute individuals who could discern that something significant must have occurred.

The more evasive their employers’ responses, the graver the situation!

Exchanging glances, the shopkeepers refrained from asking further questions.

With the proprietors adopting such a stance, even if they inquired, they wouldn’t receive the true reason.

Thus, they resigned themselves to following their bosses’ instructions… Once the shopkeepers had departed, the expressions of the two Old Masters of the Fan family soured, their anger bubbling to the surface.

“How could this happen!” “Heh, why are you so surprised?” Second Old Master Fan cast a glance at his elder brother.

“That’s Madam Shao for you.

Can Lord Shao tolerate someone bullying or humiliating his wife?

It’s no different from a slap in the face.

And perhaps he’s harbored animosity toward our family for some time.

This time, he even went out of his way to give them a handle against him… Sister-in-law may have a point.

Sigh.” But was she really a sister?

She seemed more like a troublemaker.

It wasn’t just a matter of tolerating or despising her; it was about acting in the family’s best interest.

She’d always been headstrong, disregarding the consequences of her actions.

In the past, that was acceptable.

After all, in Anze Province, the Fan family didn’t need to kowtow to anyone.

Even now, they didn’t need to.

Except for Lord Shao, who was different from previous Prefect Lords.

But to provoke someone they couldn’t afford to offend?

Wasn’t that reckless?

What could the Fan family do?

Lord Shao had wealth, power, and held a significant government position.

Did she lack common sense?

The brothers couldn’t speak ill of their sister too much.

After a sigh and some discussion, they sought out their mother.

Old Lady Fan was both shocked and furious upon hearing the news.

“This Lord Shao is despicable!

He’s abusing his authority for personal vendettas, using his position to exact revenge!

Is there no justice in this world?

Does he think the Fan Family is an easy target?” The two brothers exchanged silent glances… It seemed they understood the roots of their sister’s temperament… Blaming her alone wasn’t entirely fair.

“Mom, let’s handle this quietly.

Don’t spread the word.

Lord Shao might not be involved,” First Old Master Fan suggested.

“Hmph!” Old Lady Fan scoffed.

“Do you think I’m naive?

I can see through it.” First Old Master Fan rubbed his tired forehead.

“Even if that’s the case, without evidence, accusing an official falsely is a serious offense.

When Lord Shao sends officials to our door to arrest or punish, it’ll be within his rights.” “He—” Old Lady Fan was about to rail against Lord Shao, but she halted, realizing that Lord Shao was quite audacious.
