They also requested that Shao Erlang teach them a lesson. Ms. Niu was forbidden from interfering any further, so they asked Mei Qing to discipline them. If they dared to be rude again, they would report it to him, and he would take appropriate action.

Shao Juan and Shao Xianwen were still young and, after being frightened by their biological father, they didnt even dare to cry, let alone cause trouble.

Mei Qing may not have been particularly fond of them, but she knew she had to treat them well. After all, they were Shao Erlangs eldest son and daughter. If Shao Erlang found out that she mistreated them, she wouldnt be able to stay in the family.

If she were to get divorced and return to her maternal family, it was doubtful if she would even be welcomed there anymore.

Mei Qing and Ms. Yan, being cousins and sisters-in-law, had a good relations.h.i.+p and could stand up to Ms. Niu, their mother-in-law. It became difficult for Ms. Niu to cause trouble and create conflicts all day long. She couldnt even manage her own affairs, let alone find fault with others.

That would come later, once Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan had already moved to the capital.

On Mei Qings wedding day, Ms. Fang and her daughter-in-law also attended the wedding banquet.

Thanks to Shao Yunduan, Ms. Fang was in the spotlight. Whether they knew each other or not, people approached her to greet and exchange pleasantries.

Even Ms. Xu and Yang Xiaoni were surrounded by an enthusiastic crowd.

Where was Qiao Xuan? Ms. Fang had asked her to leave after making an appearance. If she were here, even more people would be vying for her attention.

Qiao Xuan was happy to step aside.

As for Taotao, she didnt appear at all.

As for the male guests, Shao Yunduan only approached them once they were seated.

Although they were not close relatives, they were still from the same community, so it would have been inappropriate for them not to attend.

Ms. Niu was too sick to attend, otherwise, she would have been disgusted.

But even if she felt disgusted, she couldnt drive away the first section of the family. It would be giving the second section of the family face by coming. If they didnt come, it would be even more embarra.s.sing for the second section of the family in the future!

Ms. Niu was right.

One should never hit a smiling person. Ms. Fang agreed with a smile, as long as she came forward to greet them, she could chat with anyone, whether she knew them or not.

As time went on, Ms. Fang started to feel annoyed, but she had to tolerate it.

In her daily life, she had argued with the head of the family quite a bit. No one was allowed to be arrogant or look down on others, including her.

Unexpectedly, as she spoke those words, some people felt that something was amiss, seeing that Ms. Fang was so amicable.

Ms. Nius cousin, Ms. Niu Senior, had been sitting next to Ms. Fang with a smile since she arrived. Somehow, upon hearing that Shao Yunduan had been appointed as an official in the capital, she said with a smile, Old Master Primus is so far away from the capital, and its not good to have no one from our place. Mr. Primus, dont forget the customs of your hometown.

Ms. Fang was taken aback and responded with a smile, My fifth son is not that kind of person. He will never forget his roots!

Im not forgetting my roots. Wouldnt it be nice to have a fellow villager with me, someone I can feel close to within a region?

Seeing Ms. Fang looking at her, Ms. Niu Senior grew excited and said with a smile, My daughter is only 16 years old this year, and shes beautiful, well-mannered, and hardworking. Sister-in-law, all you have to do is give your approval and let her come to your house tomorrow.
