Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Ms. Fang found her familiar, but did not recognize her. She narrowed her eyes, sizing her up. “Who… are you?”
Ding Qiuyue smiled shyly. “You don’t recognize me, Ms. Fang?”
Ms. Fang let out an exclamation and was reminded of the girl in front of her. “You are Qiuyue!”
Ding Qiuyue smiled. “It is me. Long time no see, Ms. Fang. You look stronger and younger than before. Also, you have such a wonderful house. You are living a better life than before. No wonder you look much better, too!”
Ding Qiuyue smiled and praised the house, as she walked into it.
She had been flattering Madame Zhao for years, and had developed the ability to praise. She had always been good at flattering people anyways.
That made Ms. Fang very happy. She smiled brightly. “Not really. Just that we have many people in our house and we saved some money to build the house…
Ding Qiuyue smiled. “But not every family with so many people like yours can afford this house. It must be because of your sons who helped with it, right?”
“True. They are all excellent!”
Ms. Fang laughed again.
But only now did Ms. Fang realize that Ding Qiuyue should not be here. She stiffened.
She felt regretful as well.
Ding Qiuyue was a concubine of an old man in the town and Old Master Zhao was almost as old as her father. She should not have let her in, since that wasn’t a very nice thing to promote.
Also, her family had never hung out with this girl earlier.
Ding Qiuyue was very surprised when she walked into the house.
It was better than hers.
Although it was not as glamorous as the Zhao Family’s house, yet it was clean, bright, and neat. It was comfortable and spacious, equipped with every single thing needed.
Especially the glazed window… not every window of the Zhao Family’s house was glazed.
What on earth did the Shao Family do that they became so rich, all of a sudden?
Ding Qiuyue almost blurted out the question. “Well… is there anything you want from me?”
Ms. Fang asked, coughing slightly.
Ding Qiuyue smiled. “1 haven’t been home for years so I am just walking around. I passed by your place and decided to have a talk with you. Are you alone here? Where are your children?”
Ms. Fangs face sank, but she smiled. “They are out to do the labor work, they can’t get lazy at this time of the year, can they?”
“True…” Ding Qiuyue smiled. “But… I can understand that except for one thing. I heard that one of your daughters-in-law is the County Magistrate’s daughter… Is she also working in the field? That doesn’t seem likely.” Ms. Fangs face turned bad when she heard the question.
Qiao Xuan had a special background, so many people would ask about her every now and then.
Ms. Fang did not like it.
She was her daughter-in-law, and no one else was in a position to judge her.
Ms. Fang did not want to explain anything to Ding Qiuyue. So, she answered briefly. “Yeah, Ms. Qiao is always very diligent…”
Ding Qiuyue smiled. “That is very rare. You are lucky!”
Ms. Fang felt bad, and became kind of furious.
Ding Qiuyue was just an old man’s concubine.
She was not in a position to comment on whether she was lucky or not regarding Qiao Xuan being her daughter-in-law!
