Chapter 1658: Liu Fu Is Happy Editor: Henyee Translations
Observing her clear reluctance, Deputy Prefect Guan offered advice, “She’s the wife of the Prefect, and you’re the wife of the Deputy Prefect.

You’ll cross paths many times in the future.
Don’t let anger get the better of you; it only brings you down to her level.”
Mrs.
Guan sighed, “I won’t stoop to her level!
It’s just that looking at such a person makes me unhappy.
Old Master is right.
I can’t avoid her from now on.
Otherwise, she’ll think I’m afraid of her!”
Reluctantly, Mrs.
Guan visited Qiao Xuan that day.
Qiao Xuan was in discussions with Songshi and Mianmian about farming, and Liu Fu, who was also keenly interested, had tagged along with Qiaoqiao, Qing Lian, and Xiao Er from the day before.
Qiao Xuan asked them to stay for a few days.
Liu Fu’s ears perked up at the mention of staying.
His face revealed envy, catching Qiao Xuan’s attention.
Amused, she asked if he wanted to assist Songshi with errands, as Songshi couldn’t manage everything alone.
Qing Yan, who was now working for Shao Yunduan, showed no interest in these matters.
Liu Fu eagerly nodded, expressing his willingness.
Children from less privileged backgrounds mature early, burdened with the daily concern of putting food on the table.
Liu Fu, in particular, envied those with fields.
As he grew bolder, he began fantasizing about owning a large plot of land.
Qiao Xuan, noticing his eagerness, couldn’t bring herself to disappoint him.
With a smile, she said, “Alright, you can run errands with Songshi and handle accounts with Mianmian.
Once you’ve learned everything in a few years, I’ll hire you to manage the large fields.
How does that sound?”
Liu Fu’s joy was evident as he nodded enthusiastically and pledged, “I’ll be an adult in two years.
I’ll definitely seek guidance from Elder Brother Songshi and Sister Mianmian!”
Amidst laughter, the conversation shifted to hiring people for farming when Mrs.
Guan arrived.
Qiao Xuan, noticing her, furrowed her brow slightly, asked Songshi and the others to leave, and had Caiyue invite Mrs.
Guan inside.
Mrs.
Guan entered with a laugh, expressing, “I’ve been wanting to come and chat with you for a while, but I’ve been unexpectedly busy these days!
Today, I happened to have some free time, and I hope I’m not disturbing you, Madam Shao.”
She took a seat on the left side of Qiao Xuan with a smile.
Internally amused, Qiao Xuan noted Mrs.
Guan’s competitive nature.
The impact of her words lingered, pushing Qiao Xuan to find ways not to appear inferior.
Yet, she dismissed the thought.
Considering their respective positions as the wife of the Deputy Prefect and the wife of the Prefect, deliberately avoiding confrontation seemed futile.
In a good mood and with no immediate need for confrontation, Qiao Xuan opted not to tease her further.
She greeted Mrs.
Guan with a smile, “Mrs.
Guan, what brings you here today?”
Mrs.
Guan responded with a smile, “Yes, I have something to tell you today.”
