Chapter 1967: Leaving Her Behind Chapter 1967: Leaving Her Behind Editor: Henyee Translations âI understand that the blame has been directed towards the Lu Family for this incident.
We were sluggish in our response and nearly tarnished Lord Shaoâs reputation.
I extend my sincerest apologies to you and Lord Shao.â Qiao Xuan didnât concern herself with whether this was a retreat or not; an apology was forthcoming, and she accepted it.
âItâs true that the Lu Familyâs reaction to this matter was delayed.
Our Lord is occupied and genuinely unaware of these rumors.
Likewise, I was unaware.
Had I known, I would have promptly stepped in to address the falsehoods.
Why didnât you dispatch someone to inform us sooner?
Allowing these rumors to fester and tarnish your daughterâs reputation is quite lamentable.â Second Ms.
Lu was taken aback.
âââŹÂŚYes, Madam Shao, youâre correctââŹÂŚâ Qiao Xuan continued, âSo, your purpose in coming here is to apologize for this?
Thatâs unnecessary.
Our Lord has already quashed the rumors, and heâs not one to hold grudges.
Once the misunderstanding is cleared, he wonât hold you accountable.â Second Ms.
Lu remained speechless.
Qiao Xuan had conveyed her message.
However, recalling her eldest sister-in-lawâs counsel, Qiao Xuan realized there was more she needed to address, despite having said quite a bit already.
However, Second Ms.
Lu didnât dare to say any nice words or play any tricks.
Madam Shao didnât fall for it at all.
Second Ms.
Lu feigned ignorance of Qiao Xuanâs implication, gazing at her with sincerity.
âLord Shao and Madam Shao, I appreciate your kindness, but not everyone in this world possesses such generosity.
There are countless fools who revel in mocking and attacking my third daughter with their vile wordsââŹÂŚ She suffers unjustly!â âMadam Shao, today I come to plead, despite the discomfort it brings me, to beseech you to allow the three of us to remain.â âWe have been educated in etiquette and manners since childhood through âWomenâs Ringâ and âWomenâs Training.â We are well-behaved and modest.
We can assist you in shouldering your burdens.
Rest assured, Madam Shao, upon entering your household, she will dutifully obey your instructions and defer to your authority.
She will seek your guidance in all matters and never act against your wishes!â âI implore you, Madam Shao, to grant her a place to reside and silence those who gossip!
I beg of you to show compassionââŹÂŚâ Lu Xianyun cast a pitiful glance at Qiao Xuan before humbly lowering her head and kneeling silently, displaying her submission.
Qiao Xuan remained silent.
Second Ms.
Lu persisted, âMadam Shao, forgive me for overstepping my boundsââŹÂŚ Lord Shao is young, talented, and destined for greatness.
He may one day ascend to high office.
Currently, he lacks a companion, but in the futureââŹÂŚ he will possess wealth and influence beyond your capacity to manage alone.
Rather than risk him forming ties with individuals ignorant of his background and beyond your control, itâs prudent to plan ahead.â âI cannot promise much, but I assure you that my third daughter will be faithful and obedient to you!
You need only guide her, and the Lu family will not intervene.â
