âOf course, Old Master. Please donât worry!â
He didnât consider it to be his fault. This stubborn girl had left him with no choice but to devise this plan.
Fortunately, the girl wouldnât be adversely affected since her only task was to confront a concubine.
Once she realized her mistake and turned to him, begging for forgiveness, he could then step forward and assume the role of her father.
County Magistrate Qiao found solace in this thought, feeling slightly relieved.

He simply couldnât bear to give up on a promising son-in-law like Shao Yunduan, even if it meant causing his daughter some trouble.
County Magistrate Qiaoâs determination was unwavering, so he turned to Madame Qiao and inquired, âWhere do you propose we find a girl suitable for this task?â
Madame Qiao smiled, responding, âIt wonât be difficult. With sufficient funds, we can easily find someone suitable. There should be eligible candidates within the province, and I can arrange for a girl to be transferred from elsewhere if necessary.â
That increased County Magistrate Qiaoâs confidence even further. He nodded firmly in agreement.
Good. They had ample funds for this.
Madame Qiao wasted no time in formulating the plan. She intended to seek assistance from Ms. Mi Junior, certain that she would be willing to help.
Second Mrs. Yuezheng possessed the means to make it happen effortlessly. She would even attempt to persuade Ms. Mi Junior to avoid shouldering any expenses herself.
However, Second Mrs. Yuezheng decided not to disclose this to her Old Master, as she could secure a portion of money from him as her personal savings.
As they left the mansion, Shao Yunduan called out to his wife, his face filled with sadness.
Qiao Xuanâs heart warmed, and she gently placed her fingers on his lips, smiling. âDarling, please donât make me out to be so pitiful. I donât want to hear any of that. Itâs all in the past.â
Furthermore, she hadnât suffered any harm. It was the original host who had endured it all, and she didnât deserve their sympathy.
Shao Yunduan smiled, appreciating his wifeâs open-mindedness.
âOkay, letâs not dwell on it,â he nodded, speaking softly. âItâs all behind us now, and it will never happen again.â
âYes, unless you treat me the same wayâŠâ she teased playfully.
âDonât. I promise I wonât treat you like that,â Shao Yunduan interjected, gently covering her lips with his fingers. âl⊠I will only treat you well.â
Qiao Xuan gazed up at her husband, noticing the slight redness in his ears, a sign of his guilt. He avoided her gaze, pretending everything was normal.
A bright smile graced Qiao Xuanâs face. â1 know youâre the best!â
Shao Yunduan responded softly, his cheeks flushing with a thin layer of redness. His handsome face revealed his touched emotions.
As the sound of joyful laughter reached Shao Yunduanâs ears, he felt a tinge of shyness. His wifeâs laughter indicated that she genuinely didnât mind what had happened before.
âAre you heading to the land agent?â Qiao Xuan asked.
âOf course!â Shao Yunduan replied.
Nothing would deter them, not even Officer Qiao and his wife.
âLetâs go, then!â
Together, the couple made their way to the land agent, clearly communicating their requirements. The land agent assured them confidently that he would ensure a smooth process.
They instructed him to visit the village in three daysâ time.
Only foolish individuals would pass up the opportunity to work for a generous Provincial Champion.
Afterward, the couple paid a visit to Manager Qin at Mingren Tang and engaged in a brief conversation. They requested that Manager Qin gather the ripe medicinal herbs the following afternoon, and Manager Qin agreed to their request..
