As for the two sons of the Fan family, now known as First Old Master Fan and Second Old Master Fan, along with their respective wives, it was none of their concern.

Upon hearing the news, Qiao Xuan was equally surprised.
Doting on a daughter didn’t seem to be that straightforward.
If he truly favored his daughter, then it was imperative to instill in her the qualities of discernment, knowledge, talent, responsibility, courage, and intelligence.
Qiao Xuan believed in providing her with adequate protection and support, ensuring she possessed the skills to navigate through life’s challenges wherever she went.
In the best-case scenario, she would lead a content and fulfilling life.
This, Qiao Xuan considered genuine love for a daughter.
Yet, the fact remained that he favored his daughter over his two sons.
Despite having two sons, he chose to keep his daughter at home in pursuit of a suitable son-in-law.
In the context of ancient times, was this truly an expression of paternal affection?
Had he considered how his sons and daughters-in-law would treat his daughter in his absence?
Qiao Xuan found his bias towards his daughter somewhat peculiar.
Even if they were reluctant to let their daughter face challenges in her in-laws’ house, they could have provided more dowry and support for the couple within the Fan family’s influential background.
They doubted that with the Fan family’s status and local influence, the in-laws would dare to separate the couple.
Upon learning that Old Lady Fan was perceived as conceited, prideful, and arbitrary, Qiao Xuan wasn’t surprised.
Such a temperament was inconsistent with taking such drastic measures.
Today, the Fan Family had dispatched the First Madam, Second Mrs.
Fan, along with Second Mrs.
Fan’s two daughters, Fan Jing and Fan Xiu.
Additionally, the Young Madam of the Fan Family, Bai Ruirui, and her daughter were present.
While First Madam Fan had a legitimate son, Fan Yuzong, the second branch of the family lacked a son, even from a concubine.
Fan Ruyin and her husband had a son, Baimo, who was only two years younger than Fan Yuzong.
This time, the atmosphere within the Fan Clan was even more vibrant!
Madame Lady Qiao had consistently exhibited arbitrary behavior, leveraging her seniority with an air of arrogance and narrow-mindedness.
Regardless of the banquet, she would invariably be the last to arrive, a habit that permeated the entire Fan family of women.
Today was no exception, and everyone had grown accustomed to it.
Mrs.
Guan warmly welcomed them and introduced Qiao Xuan with a smile.
Before First Madam Fan and Second Mrs.
Fan could utter a word, Fan Ruyin broke into laughter.
“I never imagined Madam Shao to be so young.
Lord Shao is indeed youthful and promising!
Anzezhou is fortunate to have him as an official.
Madam Shao exudes demure charm, and I feel an instant connection with her!”
First Madam Fan and Second Mrs.
Fan exchanged glances, offering smiles that seemed to affirm Fan Ruyin’s words.
However, a discerning eye could detect a lack of genuine warmth in their expressions.
It was clear they were compelled to go along with and support Fan Ruyin, demonstrating a silent understanding between the two.
Qiao Xuan maintained a polite smile, responding to the seemingly spoiled Fan Ruyin.
However, Qiao Xuan had no interest in engaging with such a self-righteous individual.
Establishing genuine friendship with someone of such demeanor appeared nearly impossible.
Either one’s status had to significantly surpass hers, eliciting wholehearted flattery, or there was little room for equal footing.
