As the sumptuous and expensive dishes were served on the table, they were indeed delicious, but not to the extent that the entire Shao Family abandoned their manners and devoured the food without restraint.
Contrarily, Ms. Fang had never been an arrogant individual, and she had instilled good values in her children.
Prior to their visit to the province, Ms. Fang had anticipated their trip to the Yuezheng Family and had asked Qiao Xuan to educate the family on proper etiquette in an affluent household. They were determined to learn and avoid any embarrassing situations.
Although Qiao Xuan’s knowledge was limited, having attended numerous banquets with the First Madame, she had acquired some understanding along the way. Thus, she imparted this knowledge to her family accordingly.
Now, everything was put into practice.
No one exhibited any misbehavior.
Even Madame Yuezheng was pleasantly surprised. She had mentally prepared herself for any potential faux pas from this rural family.
But such concerns were unnecessary.
Even Madame Yuezheng couldn’t help but admire the Shao Family, recognizing that they were genuinely kind-hearted and pleasant people.
The first section of the family had truly made wise choices in their friendships.
The dinner proceeded exceptionally well, with both guests and hosts thoroughly enjoying themselves. The atmosphere was lively and joyous.
In the evening, the First Madame insisted that Yuezheng Xiao accompany the Shao Family back home.
Ms. Fang initially intended to decline the offer, but the First Madame insisted, saying, “You are our guests, and that’s how we treat our guests. Please don’t be formal, Sister Fang.”
Ms. Fang expressed her gratitude and accepted the kind gesture.
The following day, the First Madame even dispatched some of her staff to deliver two jars of wine, a basket of live crabs, and two baskets filled with fresh grapes and pomegranates to the Shao Family for their enjoyment.
Ms. Fang expressed her sincere gratitude, continuously praising Qiao Xuan for befriending such wonderful individuals. Through this connection, she successfully established a friendship with the First Madame and the kind-hearted Yuezheng Family.
During this time, Xie Jingrong and Yuezheng Xiao paid a visit to the Shao Family. With old friends gathered together, the gathering was filled with warmth and happiness.
Qiao Xuan, Taotao, and Yang Xiaoni decided to purchase additional ingredients from the nearby market and invited Xie Jingrong and Yuezheng Xiao to stay for lunch. They skillfully steamed the crabs and prepared various other delectable dishes.
Madame Qiao couldn’t contain her excitement and eagerly took Qiao Kou and Qiao Wei to visit the Yuezheng Family. Concubine Du, on the other hand, was asked to remain at the hostel.
Although Concubine Du complained silently within her heart, she dared not voice her grievances or challenge Madame Qiao’s decision. She knew better than to oppose Madame Qiao.
Meanwhile, the First Madame treated everyone with kindness and grace, not finding fault with anyone but displaying her impeccable manners.
But First Madame had no intention of introducing them to Madame Yuezheng.
While the First Madame treated them as guests, her hospitality was not entirely sincere. However, in the eyes of Madame Qiao and her two daughters, they were overwhelmed with excitement, feeling that the First Madame was showing them great warmth and affection.
Unaware of their empty flattery, the First Madame grew increasingly impatient.
She was on the verge of instructing Auntie Hua to find an excuse to politely decline their request when Madame Qiao suddenly inquired about Qiao Xuan.
“Xuan mentioned that she arrived in the province before us. She expressed her desire to pay her respects to you. Has she been here?”
First Madame smiled and nodded. “Yes, Xuan and Sister Fang have already been here. In fact, I invited them to join us for a tour outside the city, and we even shared a celebratory dinner together yesterday in honor of the Double
