Yang Guilan’s words struck a nerve with Qiao Meipan.

Because she had a brother like Sun Junyan, she planned to find a scholar with great potential to be a future official.

The families of scholars she found were too poor for her liking, and the wealthier ones did not fancy her, thus her marriage was delayed as a result.

One day last year, she happened upon Tong Sanlang killing a wild boar with a bow and arrow while picking wild fruits on the mountain and had fallen in love at first sight, completely disregarding all the scholars she had previously considered.

Compared to those who were aiming to take part in the Imperial Examination, Tong Sanlang was merely a village boy, hence she believed that based on her looks and with a brother like Sun Junyan, Tong Sanlang would undoubtedly agree.

But!

Tong Sanlang rejected her without a moment’s hesitation!

Even after the heartbreak, she did not lose hope and instead, became even more infatuated with Tong Sanlang.

But now Yang Guilan knowingly brought this up to provoke her, mocking her as an old spinster, her face flushed bright red as she turned to her abuser and retorted, “Who do you think you are? Stay out of my business!”

On hearing this, Yang Guilan also lost her temper and shouted, “Why don’t you go find Tong Sanlang, what are you bothering Xiaomai for? If you accuse Xiaomai of seducing Tong Sanlang without evidence, it’s slander, and you’ll be beaten for it!”

Initially, the villagers of Anping were unfamiliar with the term ‘slander’, but after Zhu Cuiying was beaten for false accusations against Qiao Xiaomai, the term suddenly became a heavy, daunting word in their minds.

And it was commanding.

Hearing this, Qiao Meipan couldn’t help but seethe with anger, her teeth biting down hard on her lips in silence.

She certainly did not want to give Qiao Xiaomai a reason to approach Tong Sanlang!

She had also witnessed the miserable state of Zhu Cuiying being beaten in front of Tong Sanlang, a sight so disgraceful that she would rather die than experience.

Seeing Qiao Meipan silent, Yang Guilan sneered before turning to Qiao Xiaomai and called out, “Xiaomai, let’s go home for dinner, ignore her.”

Qiao Xiaomai shook her head, “1 have to go bring Dami back.”

There was no need for Tong Tiehu to deal with Qiao Meipan as she could be easily subdued.

It was around this time that she heard Qiao Dami’s call from behind, “Sister!”

As Qiao Xiaomai turned around, she saw Qiao Dami rushing towards her with both Sun Family and Qiao Qinghe following behind.

They encountered the two on their way to the Tong family, both Sun family and Qiao Qinghe tried to stop him from going, hence, they returned.

Qiao Xiaomai reached out to hold his little hand, looked up to Sun Family and Qiao Qinghe and asked, “Grandpa, why did you come?”

Deliberately ignoring the Sun Family.

Qiao Qinghe’s face showed signs of embarrassment, “I came to call your aunt home.”

“Home! What about the tofu and cold jelly noodles!” Sun Family yelled out immediately.

The issue with Qiao Meipan was only a side matter, the main goal was the recipe for Silver Mountain spine!

“Get back home!” Qiao Qinghe angrily demanded, reaching out to pull her.

“I’m not going back! Changsun, this unfilial son, stays at home all day enjoying his life without a thought of respecting us! I’ve wasted all these years caring for him!” Sun Family nimbly dodged Qiao Qinghe’s outreach, scurried towards the gate of Qiao Xiaomai’s house.

“Changsun, come out!” she shouted full of valor while running.

Along the way, she had figured out a way to make hundreds or even thousands of taels a day, considering the daily returns of tofu, bean curd, and Silver Mountain. With such earning potential, she couldn’t care about Tong Sanlang any longer!

Against the backdrop of mountains of gold and silver, Qiao Meipan’s various negative emotions surfaced due to Tong Sanlang were trivial!

Their Qiao Family was on the verge of making a fortune!
