Chapter 1120: Luck Taken
Editor: Henyee Translations
After all, it was the Emperor’s call!
Second Old Master and Old Master Qiao, who had been so happy and gloating when they broke off the relationship, now felt bored again.
The couple could not help but complain about their fate. If they had not asked them to sign the contract, this would not have happened.
First Madame Qiao and Second Mrs. Qiao were both jealous of Qiao Xuan’s luck, so they blamed Qiao Hongxi. “He is Qiao Xuan’s lineal brother, and he doesn’t even try to talk him out of it. What else can I say? Qiao Xuan is part of the third section of the family, and the third section of the family has the right to speak with her!”
The other one couldn’t help but say, “…That is so strange. How can Qiao Xuan be so lucky? I think that is very suspicious. Qiao Xuan must have used some underhanded, evil, sinister methods to steal the Qiao Family’s fortune, right? Why is she always getting all the good things, but we are always so unlucky…”
Second Old Master’s heart skipped a beat. He started to believe that.
Hearing that Elder Brother was not doing well this time, he felt annoyed.
He was in charge of the abbey, and the harvest this year was not very good.
The third section of the family was even more unlucky. Hongxi was demoted, and the third section of the family was ostracized. The lineal daughter’s marriage was ruined, and the concubine’s daughter did something so shameless.
What a coincidence!
The two brothers had a tacit understanding of how to report the third section of the family. So they kept adding fuel to the fire in front of Madame Lady Qiao.
Madame Lady Qiao, who had been feeling very uncomfortable, got even more furious hearing what she said.
Madame Lady Qiao felt that her brothers were right.
She ordered someone to fetch Third Old Master and his wife.
They had not expected that if they insisted on driving Qiao Xuan out of the family, Qiao Hongxi would not be able to change their mind, no matter how much he objected.
But at this moment, someone needed to bear the anger and grievances, so they could prove that they did not personally push out the favor, so they did not care.
Third Old Master and Third Madame Qiao were so confused and bewildered by the scolding. They did not understand what was going on until a long while later.
Third Madame Qiao shivered in anger, gritting her teeth.
This wretched old woman!
They helped the first section of the family and the second section of the family get so much money from the third section of the family, and now they were blaming them for Qiao Xuan? Did they regret driving that woman away?
Third Madame Qiao felt secretly pleased – they were so unlucky!
As for her own family… she was caught in a vicious cycle and had no idea what to do.
Third Old Master felt aggrieved too. His son never disobeyed his elders, and he could not be blamed.
But Third Old Master started to suspect if Qiao Xuan had stolen the Qiao Family’s fortune.
That sounded very reasonable!
Madame Lady Qiao said angrily, “Just think about it – is there anything wrong with Qiao Xuan? You are her parents, and you should know something, right? We need to find a way to get the Qiao Family’s luck back, otherwise, she would be too lucky!”
Third Madame sneered and said nothing.
Her son was an officer, and her husband was an officer too. They were not that bad either, were they?
