Therefore, the two Old Masters of the Fan family promptly apologized to their mother and sister, assuring them that they would attentively consider their viewpoints.
Old Lady Fan and Fan Ruyin’s spirits lifted again.
Fan Ruyin had attended the banquet to scrutinize Madam Shao’s appearance.
Despite preparing herself to be critical, upon seeing Qiao Xuan, she found no fault to pick at.
Madam Shao, young, beautiful, gracious, gentle, and elegant, captivated attention with her splendid attire, emerging as the focal point of the gathering.

She possessed an allure that held people’s gazes for an extended moment.
Feeling somewhat perplexed, Fan Ruyin couldn’t discern whether she was disappointed or not.
Despite her uncertainty, she found herself smiling at Qiao Xuan, either out of curiosity or a desire to glean information about the genuine noble families in the capital.
Even though the Prefect of Anze Prefecture saw frequent turnovers and changes, no Prefect had hailed from the capital until Lord Shao’s appointment, making him the first.
Yet, despite Fan Ruyin’s attempt to extend goodwill, it wasn’t apparent to onlookers.
She believed that her willingness, as the great-aunt of the Fan family, to express goodwill towards the new Prefect’s wife should elicit surprise and gratitude.
However, Qiao Xuan’s response showed no signs of surprise, happiness, or gratitude.
Despite her smiling demeanor and gentle tone, Qiao Xuan treated her no differently than others, leaving Fan Ruyin feeling slighted, as if she had been overlooked.
As Fan Ruyin picked up her teacup, her expression soured, and she mentally noted to Qiao Xuan, “Just wait and see!”
Qiao Xuan remained oblivious to the unfolding dynamics.
As everyone arrived one after another, it neared noon.
With a warm smile, Mrs.
Guan sought Qiao Xuan’s opinion, proposing to commence with the banquet before the entertainment.
Qiao Xuan, displaying no objections, graciously thanked Mrs.
Guan with a polite smile.
Mrs.
Guan’s smile grew even more gracious and genial, repeatedly stating it was her duty while secretly harboring less pleasant thoughts.
As the banquet commenced, Mrs.
Guan invited Qiao Xuan to the main table and gestured for everyone to be seated.
With a smile, she informed Qiao Xuan, “I’ve arranged for the renowned specialty dishes of Anze Province.
Madam Shao, as our distinguished guest, you must savor them later!
The local delicacies are highly esteemed by the residents here!”
Laughter filled the air.
“That’s right.
Anzezhou’s cuisine is exceptional!”
“Madam Shao, you must give it a try and see how much you enjoy it!”
“Madam Shao is sure to be pleased!”
Observing the peculiar smiles on everyone’s faces, Qiao Xuan couldn’t help but wonder about the enigmatic culinary surprises Mrs.
Guan had in store.
Intrigued, she remained unfazed.
If Mrs.
Guan anticipated her discomfort or an embarrassing situation, she would likely be disappointed.
Qiao Xuan had encountered and tasted many unusual dishes that were beyond Mrs.
Guan’s imagination.
Before the first dish made its appearance, an unpleasant odor wafted through the air.
Lixia and Caiyue were the ones serving Qiao Xuan, while Caihua, Liqiu, and Qiaoqiao were stationed elsewhere with Mrs.
Guan’s proficient maids and servants.
