County Magistrate Yang couldn't help but reminisce about the vibrant and beautiful girl, brimming with youthful energy. He forced himself to say, "Mother, please refrain from mentioning her any further."
Madame Tang failed to notice the change in her son's demeanor. She assumed he despised Qiao Xuan as much as she did. So she nodded with a smile. "Alright, alright, I won't mention her anymore. She's not worth our attention!"
As they departed, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan prepared to leave as well.
Madame Qiao, wearing a smile, suggested, "Since you're already here, why not stay a few more days? Yunduan will soon be heading to the capital, and being part of the Qiao Family, Old Master can offer you some valuable advice!"
"Thank you, Mrs. Gu. I will make sure to visit you and bid farewell before we leave. We have many matters to attend to back home, and it's best for us to return as soon as possible."
