Chapter 2331: Exposing the Truth

Qiao Wei took satisfaction in the surprise and discomfort she had caused. “Madame Tang’s son, County Magistrate Yang, would have been a perfect match for you! You missed a golden opportunity. If you hadn’t made those choices, you could have been Mrs. Yang, not Madam Shao!”

Qiao Wei’s resentment was evident. She wished that Qiao Xuan had ended up as Madame Yang instead of Madam Shao.

Madame Qiao, meanwhile, was plagued by regret. She mused that if Qiao Wei had married Shao Yunduan, it would have been her daughter in the spotlight, drawing all the attention.

Qiao Xuan’s eyes narrowed as she spoke coldly, “I had not been out of the house for over a year before I had that accident. Who was it that urged me to go out, to the waterside? Why did I end up falling into the water? I kept quiet about it, but that doesn’t mean I’m ignorant or naive. Madame Qiao, what would you think if I decided to investigate this matter thoroughly?”

She continued, “Regarding my previous engagement, it was arranged by my late mother through Officer Qiao. It has nothing to do with you, Madame Qiao.”

“After my Lord saved me from drowning, Madame Qiao wrote to Madame Tang, canceling the marriage. Thus, I married my Lord soon after.”

“Fortunately, the heavens are watching. It seems that my biological mother’s spirit is protecting me. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise!”

“After I left the pavilion, I never spoke of the Qiao Family again. I simply wanted to live a good life. Even though the farming family has its hardships, they are far more amicable than before. But what have you done? Do you want me to list everything? Qiao Wei, how dare you speak so shamelessly!”

Mrs. Jia sighed. “I didn’t expect such a tangled situation. Madam Shao, you’re incredibly fortunate that no one can mar your happiness.”

Mrs. Zhang added, “Exactly. It’s crucial to be kind and maintain a moral compass. Everyone should adhere to some basic principles. When you push others to the brink, you’re only setting yourself up for a downfall.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

“That’s not all. It’s clear that they’re ruthless but still try to shift the blame. It’s truly detestable!”

“Indeed, they are too vile. Anyone who doesn’t know the full story might think they’re the victims.”

“I’m embarrassed for them. What can I even say?”

“Hehe, what’s there to hide? Their actions speak for themselves. Their audacity is astounding!”

“Exactly, haha!”

“…”

Madame Qiao felt a chill run down her spine as her face turned pale. She suddenly realized that even if Qiao Wei spoke the truth, as long as Qiao Xuan denied it, everyone here would side with Qiao Xuan, not Qiao Wei.

Just like before, no matter what went wrong, Qiao Xuan would always be blamed. The servants would side with her, and no matter how much she protested, no one would believe her.

Retribution…

The thought of this word suddenly crossed Madame Qiao’s mind, filling her with anxiety and bitterness.
