"So, howâs everyone at home doing?"
Yang Qingrui nodded, "Everyoneâs fine. Mom wants you not to worry about the family."
"By the way, hasnât that Qian Xiaoqing gotten into some trouble? Did Second Aunt go to see Mom after she got back?"
Thinking about how Ms. Luo and Ms. Qian from the Wang Family have similar temperaments, both able to stir things up. Ms. Qian might not dare to cause trouble in the Capital City, but that doesnât mean she wonât in Funan.
"She went once, but there was no fuss," Yang Qingrui said. "Maybe itâs because Grandma and Second Uncle were there at the time."
"As long as she didnât cause a scene." Yang Chuxia said with a smile, "If she stirs things up again, just send a message to Qian Xiaoqingâs sister-in-law, telling her that Qian Xiaoqingâs first husband didnât die of illness but was actually killed by Qian Xiaoqing. At that point, the Qian Family would be in an uproar, and Second Aunt wouldnât have time to bother us."
Hearing this, Yang Qingrui was also a bit surprised; thatâs truly a ruthless approach.
"Tsk tsk, with someone like that, Second Aunt still wants to push her onto our family." Yang Xiayun sneered at Qian Xiaoqing.
"Any fresh news from Yangshu Village? Tell me about it."
Yang Chuxia was quite interested in the happenings of her hometown. Even if she couldnât go back, hearing about it felt just like being home.
As soon as the topic of hometown came up, Yang Xiayunâs gossip spirit was ignited, "Sis, you wonât believe it, but some amazing things have happened in Yangshu Village, truly astounding."
"Oh, what happened? Tell me about it." Yang Chuxia was intrigued.
Yang Qingruiâs brothers shook their heads; they werenât interested in gossip. Seeing this, Ye Ziâan invited them to the study to discuss possible topics for this yearâs exams.
As for Yang Xiaochuan and his wife, they left after dinner. Ms. Luo didnât say much, but she still looked displeased.
After Ye Ziâan left, Yang Xiayun grabbed Yang Chuxia and said, "Let me tell you, didnât Dad set up a school in Yangshu Village?"
"And then?"
"The point is, thereâs a female teacher at this school." Yang Xiayun chuckled, "Many girls in Yangshu Village are now attending school, and Dad thought it might not be proper for a male teacher to teach girls, so he spent money to bring in two female teachers from the prefecture. Originally, these two female teachers were quite good-looking, not that old either. When they first arrived in our village, I heard many of the young men liked them."
"But who knew, one day, one of the teachers got involved with that Li Anshun."
"Him?" This Li Anshun was Yang Lichunâs husband, and knowing Yang Lichunâs temperament, she wouldnât let it go easily.
"Exactly him." Yang Xiayun pouted, showing her disdain, "For the past year or two, heâs been doing grain business in our town, even trading it. Heâs been doing quite well and made some money. Heâs become quite arrogant, and I donât know how he got involved with that female teacher. Unfortunately for him, Yang Lichun caught them."
"Did she make a scene?"
"Sis, you guessed wrong this time." Yang Xiayun laughed, "She didnât cry or make a fuss; she politely asked a matchmaker to arrange for Li Anshun to take a concubine."
"She could be that magnanimous? Impossible, right?" Yang Chuxia found it hard to believe; Yang Lichun wasnât that type at all.
"Sis, donât be hasty; the fun part is coming up." Yang Xiayun continued, "Li Anshun, seeing her so generous, got really pleased, and Yang Lichun happily arranged for him to take that female teacher as a concubine."
