With all the tasks completed, dusk settled outside, and the lights began to illuminate the surroundings.
The restaurant-delivered food arrived, and appreciating everyone’s hard work, Qiao Xuan asked Lixia to convey the message for them to rest after dinner.
Even though they had settled down, there were still numerous tasks awaiting them in the future.
Sun Bai and Sun Qian, vigilant as always, arranged for guards to keep watch through the night.
A serene night unfolded.
Nestled in Shao Yunduan’s arms, Qiao Xuan felt a sense of contentment.
This was their home!
The following morning, Qiao Xuan freshened up and headed to the garden with Lixia, Liqiu, and Mianmian.
Meanwhile, Shao Yunduan went to the front office to meet all the officers in the Prefect’s office.
The garden, nurtured by Mrs.
Guan, was thriving.
Roses, gardenias, cuckoos, peonies, and crabapples were all in full bloom.
The trees stood lush and green.
In high spirits, Qiao Xuan and her servants enjoyed a leisurely walk, a rare treat after the challenges they had faced on their journey.
Qiao Xuan’s mischievous side surfaced.
She suddenly felt the urge to provoke Mrs.
Guan once again.
Instructing Lixia and the others to find a bamboo basket, Qiao Xuan called Qing Lian, Qiaoqiao, and Caiyue to pick the blooming flowers—roses, gardenias, and peonies.
She intended to make lip gloss.
Trimming branches from the well-blooming peonies and begonias with scissors, she planned to bring them back and arrange them in bottles.
The cuckoos and hydrangeas caught her eye.
She decided to carefully transplant them later into the east courtyard.
Qiao Xuan observed the maids picking and arranging flowers, engrossed in their work and laughter, when Mrs.
Guan arrived with her attendants.
An elderly woman shouted from a distance, “Where did these little girls come from?
Hurry up and stop!”
Qiao Xuan sneered and calmly said, “Just ignore her.”
The maids chuckled and responded, “Who is this old woman?
She’s shouting!”, “That’s right, who does she think she’s scaring!”, “Hey, don’t say that.
She suddenly shouted like this, it really scared me!”, “Me too, me too!”
Seeing the maids unperturbed, Mrs.
Guan grew angrier.
She gritted her teeth and scolded, “How dare you be so arrogant the moment you arrive!”
“Madam Shao!” Mrs.
Guan, unable to contain her anger, addressed Qiao Xuan with frustration.
“This must be Madam Shao, right?
I’m the Deputy Prefect’s wife.
Madam Shao, you’ve just arrived.
Why don’t you rest more?
You seem to be in such a good mood!”
Lixia glared at Nanny Ding and rebuked, “Auntie, were you the one shouting just now?
Our Madam is pregnant.
You’re scaring her with your sudden loud shouting!
If anything happens to our Madam, can you bear the responsibility?”
Nanny Ding and Mrs.
Guan were taken aback.
Madam Shao was pregnant?
Despite being pregnant, she had endured the hardships to be with her husband.
Nanny Ding smiled, “Aiya, I didn’t know that Madam Shao was pregnant.
I deserve to be scolded!
Please forgive me, Madam Shao.
I’ll be more careful in the future.”
“I’m also concerned.
These flowers were meticulously cared for by my wife.
It wasn’t easy for them to look this beautiful.
It’s a shame to pick them!
Madam Shao, do you think we should tell the girls to stop?”
Mrs.
Guan added, “Madam Shao, I wonder what your plans are for the flowers.

It’s spring, and you’ve just arrived.
I was thinking of hosting a flower-viewing banquet in a few days to invite all the ladies to appreciate the blossoms.
If the flowers are gone!”
