Chapter 1705: Why Are You Here?
Editor: Henyee Translations
Was Fan Ruyin willing to miss out on such a lively event?
Of course not; she wanted to go too.
Although First Madam Fan was hesitant to bring along her seemingly trouble-stirring sister-in-law, she lacked the authority to refuse.
Thus, the following morning, they made their way to the backyard of the state government office to visit Madam Shao.
Qiao Xuan had just finished discussing matters with Songshi, Liu Fu, and others when she learned of First Madam Fan and Aunt’s visit.
Smiling, she greeted them, “Keep an eye on the schedule and try to expedite matters.
Time waits for no one.”
The two women agreed and departed.
Liqiu commented, “They didn’t come when you were resting.
I don’t know why they’re here now!”
The sentiment was unanimous.
Qiao Xuan smiled.
“They’re not here to visit me.
Since they’ve come, let them in!”
First Madam Fan exhibited proper manners as she greeted Qiao Xuan politely, took a seat, and engaged in conversation.
She inquired about the baby in Qiao Xuan’s belly, offering advice on pregnancy and discussing how to care for the child.
Qiao Xuan, genuinely interested, joined the conversation with enthusiasm.
For a pregnant woman eagerly anticipating her child, there was no more enticing topic.
It was impossible to resist such kindness.
Fan Ruyin’s expression soured.
Gradually, her complexion paled as she glared at First Madam Fan.
She had suspected it!
Her two sister-in-laws weren’t as benevolent as they appeared.
While they behaved respectably in front of their mother, behind her back, they harbored disdain for her and her family.
Yet, she was also a member of the Fan Family, just like her brothers.
They shared the same mother.
Why couldn’t she find a husband?
Why couldn’t she claim a share of the Fan Family’s assets?
His mother and brothers remained silent.
What right did his two sister-in-laws have to be dissatisfied?
They were outsiders!
Whenever he was present, his mother would insist that they take care of him.
However, when he wasn’t in front of her, how willing were they to cater to his needs?
It was preposterous!
Qiao Xuan had already noticed Fan Ruyin’s discontented expression but chose to feign ignorance.
Dealing with the wife of the Prefect required careful consideration in conversation, after all.
What a jest!
Did this girl from the Fan family believe everyone had to flatter her?
Upon reflection, it seemed that was indeed the case!
The Fan family, one of the three major families in Anze Province, wielded significant influence in the region.
With the government struggling to control the area, they heavily relied on these three families for management.
Given such circumstances, the Fan family had the power to demand praise and face from others.
Over time, Fan Ruyin might have developed such a personality naturally.
Yet, Qiao Xuan refused to cater to it.
While others might endure Fan Ruyin’s arrogant temper, willingly or not, Qiao Xuan saw no need to seek assistance from the Fan Family.
As for fear, it held even less sway over her.
If the Fan family persisted in their arrogance, it was only a matter of time before her husband took a stand against them.
In essence, they were already in the first round.
Observing her sister-in-law’s darkening expression, First Madam Fan inwardly sighed.
She couldn’t keep pretending she hadn’t noticed.
If she had continued to turn a blind eye, she would be spared this current predicament.

However, when she returned, Fan Ruyin would undoubtedly complain to their mother-in-law.
