âI am where I am today because of my husbandâs abilities. I have my own abilities too. What does that have to do with the Qiao Family?â Qiao Xuan retorted confidently.
âOh, so now you claim to have cut ties with the Qiao Family! Well, thank you, Madame Lady Qiao, for severing that connection! Since breaking away from the Qiao Family and distancing myself from its influence, my husband and I have been blessed with good fortune. Perhaps itâs because we freed ourselves from the shackles of the Qiao Familyâs destiny!â
In other words, the Qiao Familyâs misfortune was dragging everyone down!
You may be burdened with bad luck because of the Qiao Family, but itâs a different story for me. By freeing myself from your bad luck, I have changed my own fortune!
Madame Lady Qiao grasped Qiao Xuanâs implications and felt like she was on the verge of collapsing.
âAbsurd! Nonsense! Youâre just talking rubbish!â Madame Lady Qiao vehemently rejected the notion that Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan could have possibly brought prosperity and success to their own lives. She refused to acknowledge their excellence.
However, Qiao Xuanâs clever counter-argument seemed to hit a nerve, and her words began to hold more weight in Madame Lady Qiaoâs mind.
After all, stealing luck wasnât an easy feat. Additionally, Qiao Xuan, being a lowly concubineâs daughter in the Qiao Family, never had the opportunity to seek the guidance of a Daoist master.
As for the Qiao Familyâs mansion in the capital, she had no intention of doing anything about it.
On the contrary, since leaving the Qiao Family and cutting all ties, she and her husband had achieved prosperity. This, to Qiao Xuan, indicated that the problem lay with the Qiao Family itself!
Madame Lady Qiaoâs mental composure crumbled under Qiao Xuanâs relentless arguments, and she couldnât bear it any longer.
Qiao Xuan sneered, âThatâs not important. What matters is that I have completely disassociated myself from the Qiao Family, and whatever I have now has nothing to do with you or them. I have no interest in the Qiao Familyâs luck whatsoever!â
âIâm here to warn you, and let this be the last time. If you ever try to set me up again, donât blame me for being merciless! Iâm sure no one from the Qiao Family wants to suffer the same fate as Qiao Hongxi, right?â
How arrogant!
Madame Lady Qiaoâs expression darkened, and so did the others present.
Third Madame became even more furious. âQiao Xuan, you despicable woman, youâre threatening us!â
âAnd if you perceive it as a threat, what will you do?â
âIf you think Iâm merely joking and that I canât do anything to you, go ahead and test me! But remember, Iâve already warned you. If you provoke me, itâll be too late for regrets. Donât blame me for showing no mercy!â
Second Mrs. Qiaoâs eldest son was unconvinced. âYou seem awfully certain that you can do us harm? The Qiao Family is a powerful clan in the intermediate capital, with prestigious titles. Your husbandâs family is nothing in comparison!â
Qiao Xuan gazed at her deeply. âYouâre welcome to try me!â
Second Mrs. Qiao struggled to find a response and held her breath in frustration.
Internally, she felt vexedâher son was about to take the imperial examination, and once he achieved the rank of Advanced Scholar and became an official, Shao Yunduan would pale in comparison!
First Madame Qiao shared a similar sentiment. However, her husband held a lower position as a sixth-ranked officer in the Ministry of Rites, and he couldnât match Shao Yunduan, the new Primus. Thus, she had no effective rebuttal against Qiao Xuanâs claims.
