Chapter 1027: Two Faces
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was amusing that when Qiao Xuan accompanied Shao Yunduan to the capital for the examination, Ms. Niu and Second Uncle were constantly making sarcastic remarks from outside.
They would mock the first branch of the family for their recklessness, questioning how they could allow Qiao Xuan, a woman, to venture out with a man. Or perhaps they wanted to take the examination themselves? They believed it would bring bad luck if a woman joined them. It was already surprising enough that she wanted to participate in the examination at all.
While others might not have been familiar with Shao Yunduan’s character and abilities, they were from the same village. Being an intermediate recommended candidate was already an impressive achievement; it was like being an advanced incense burner! The intermediate Provincial Champion had been a stroke of luck and happenstance. Becoming an Advanced Scholar was no easy feat. novelbuddy.cσ๓
In the vast realm of Great Qin, numerous scholars and young talents hailed from scholarly and prestigious families. They had been groomed for greatness from a young age, so naturally, they were more accomplished than Shao Yunduan.
As for Shao Yunduan, it would be best for him to abandon such thoughts to avoid disappointment.
When these words reached the first branch of the Shao Family, Ms. Fang sneered and pretended not to hear them. She maintained control over the family, forbidding any internal disputes regarding this matter.
If someone dared to bring it up in front of them, they would retaliate, saying, “If you hold such contempt for my brother, why don’t your children stop attending the school that he sponsors?”
The person in question was taking advantage of others and resorting to snide remarks. It was evident that they had ulterior motives.
However, since Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan were not present at home, Ms. Fang decided not to involve herself and dismissed the matter.
Furthermore, arguing with others would be futile. They had to rely on Shao Yunduan’s performance.
Once Shao Yunduan achieved success in the examination, his family would be proud and prove those detractors wrong.
If he failed to qualify for the intermediate examination, what would be the point of engaging in arguments at this stage?
Naturally, Ms. Fang didn’t pay much attention even if her son didn’t pass the intermediate examination.
Ms. Niu and Second Uncle were correct about one thing. There were numerous scholars throughout the entire Daqin Kingdom, so it was not uncommon for their son to have failed the intermediate exam twice.
However, their choice of words was distasteful and unpleasant.
On the other hand, Ms. Fang had immense faith in her son. She firmly believed in his capabilities and was convinced that he would undoubtedly succeed in the intermediate examination.
To their astonishment, Shao Yunduan emerged as the top scorer!
The top scorer! He ranked first among all the scholars!
How many individuals could claim such a distinction? Only one!
When the news arrived from County Magistrate Qiao, Ms. Fang couldn’t contain her joy. She was left speechless, and the entire first branch of the Shao Family was overwhelmed with excitement.
The Land Officer and the elders in the family were moved to tears. They showered him with endless praise and promptly opened the ancestral hall to announce this momentous news.
Consequently, the first branch of the Shao Family became the most esteemed family in the village. Nobody dared to harbor jealousy toward them anymore. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Those who were envious were simply unworthy of such feelings.
Conversely, many people began to admire their family.
He was the illustrious Primus!
Now that he held an official position, he might even rise to become a high-ranking official in the future!
Thus, when Ms. Fang encountered Ms. Niu on one occasion, she taunted her with an air of arrogance, leaving Ms. Niu so infuriated that she departed without uttering a word.
Unexpectedly, both Ms. Niu and Second Uncle displayed shamelessness by pleading with Eldest Uncle. They admitted their wrongdoing, expressed their reluctance to cause any further trouble, and vowed to respect their elder brother. They humbly implored him to restore familial harmony as it had been before.
Ms.Niu slapped her own face and scolded herself for what she had done wrong and for turning over a new leaf. Second Unle burst into tears and said that it was all his fault in the past, and now he knew that he was wrong.
