Chapter 1717: Smug Editor: Henyee Translations
Observing her two sister-in-laws struggling to maintain composure after their scolding, Fan Ruyin, with a choked voice, interjected, “Mother, it has nothing to do with the two sister-in-laws.
It’s all Madam Shao’s fault!”
In her scheming heart, Fan Ruyin believed that by defending her sister-in-laws after the scolding, she could garner their gratitude.
In her view, they owed her a favor, a perception she had always upheld with a smug sense of accomplishment.
Unbeknownst to her, she failed to realize that, if not for her, her sister-in-laws wouldn’t have suffered this undeserved calamity.
A single sentence from her could have clarified the situation, but she chose not to speak up, allowing them to endure the torrent of curses before intervening.
Her sister-in-laws harbored deep-seated resentment towards her.
Old Lady Fan, though slightly appeased by Fan Ruyin’s defense, snorted dismissively.
“You don’t have to plead for them.

They are involved.
How can it have nothing to do with them?
They just stood by as Madam Shao bullied them.”
“If you advocate for them, they might not appreciate your kindness!”
The two Mrs.
Fan were infuriated, feeling on the verge of vomiting blood.
Fortunately, Old Lady Fan ceased her scolding after a few more words and shifted her focus to Qiao Xuan, inquiring about the alleged mistreatment.
Fan Ruyin, once again feeling wronged, insisted that she didn’t initiate the mockery.
Instead, she claimed that the Shao family’s maidservant humiliated her, mocking her ignorance and the incompetence of the Fan family.
Old Lady Fan, incensed by the revelation, concluded that Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were bound to be enemies.
“Let them revel in their smugness.
We still don’t know about the seeds yet.
I want to see what they can do!”
As the attention of everyone was fixed on how the state government would address the seed issue, Yuezheng Xiao and his entourage had already arrived in Anze Province.
Shao Yunduan instructed Jia Heming to find two trustworthy scribes and store the seeds in the warehouse.
He then drafted an official document, distributing it to the towns to facilitate the planting of spring crops.
Jia Heming, stunned by the sudden turn of events, took a moment to collect himself before addressing Shao Yunduan, “Lord, this, this—”
Shao Yunduan smiled, “The first batch of seeds has arrived, and the second and third batches will follow in a couple of days.
Organize the distribution of the seeds as quickly as possible, ensuring no delay in the spring planting.”
“Of course, Lord!” Overjoyed, Jia Heming rushed out to oversee the arrangements.
Returning to the east yard, Shao Yunduan found Songshi, who had just picked up Yuezheng Xiao from Zheng Sangge’s house.
Upon learning about Qiao Xuan’s pregnancy, Yuezheng Xiao expressed his congratulations and joy.
The three friends, reunited after a long separation, engaged in lively conversation, relishing the warmth of their reunion.
Yuezheng Xiao conveyed greetings from his mother, the First Madame, and even brought some gifts for Qiao Xuan.
The thought of the person who had treated her well and imparted invaluable knowledge for navigating this era warmed Qiao Xuan’s heart.
She smiled and inquired about the well-being of the First Madame, whom she missed dearly.
As the evening descended, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan decided to stay for dinner at the east yard of the state office.
With Yuezheng Xiao’s visit, they planned to enjoy each other’s company for a few more days, exploring the delights of Anze Province together.
