While sour meat was being made, they made some preserved eggs and salted duck eggs as well.

Everyone in the first section of the family spoke highly of the food, just like Qiao Xuan had praised it before. They got everything prepared and they would have good food for the upcoming winter.

Ding Erzhu pa.s.sed on the letter, saying that the house would be built soon and asked if Qiao Xuan wanted to join them.

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan paid a visit to the Zhang Village soon.

The villagers had worked fast and effectively. Due to Ding Erzhu and Madame Zhou’s keen supervision, they did not cut down on their labor work.

They had done the work according to the paper Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan gave them.

The pond next to the vegetable garden had been dug by the tenants. It was finished, and there was a circle of green bricks about one and a half meters wide that had been laid on the ground.

Some pits were prepared for spring tree planting.

A willow, two peach trees, one elm tree, one locust tree and one mulberry tree were planted beside the fish pond. When they grew into lush shade trees, they would not only shade the pond from the sun and cool down in summer, but also provide a place where they could sit and fish under the tree, and eat the fruit leisurely. When they could not finish the fruits, they could feed it to the fish in the pond… how wonderful!

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were very satisfied by what they saw.

The leader told them that they could have the house settled after a few more days, and they were invited to have a look at it when the work was all done.

After completion, they would immediately install doors, windows, furniture, and then when the house was cleaned) people could move in within two days. When they left the village, it was still quite early and Qiao Xuan suggested going for a walk in the town, which Shao Yunduan agreed to.

In the twelfth lunar month, the town was extremely lively, with all kinds of goods around. Countless people were choosing thick cloth, cotton, buying dishes, candles, paper money, various dry goods and so on.

It would be even more lively as they approached the year end.

Qiao Xuan enjoyed shopping and bought a lot of odds and ends. There were small toys that children liked, silk flowers, and snacks.

Shao Yunduan kept her company and helped her hold goods.

But they were unlucky to run into a few students from the college.

Worse, two of them were Zhao Guanghua’s followers.

Shao Yunduan frowned. It was too late to dodge them.

Zhao Guanghua’s followers knew that Zhao Guanghua hated him, so they wanted to tease him. Hence, they approached Shao Yunduan.

“Oh look at this, aren’t you Brother Shao? I haven’t seen you for a long time at college.”

“Haha, but he is not a student of our college any more. He has been driven out, did you forget about it?”

“Oh yes, it slipped my mind!”

“Brother Shao, I think Dean Meng punished you because he was very angry. What about us helping you out, Brother Shao? Maybe you can apologize to Dean Meng, and he can forgive you?

“Yeah, without teachers’ guidance, Brother Shao will not be able to pa.s.s the examination.”

“Brother Shao, don’t take risks with your future!”

The two of them cooperated with each other, but Shao Yunduan ignored it. He knew clearly that he had the evidence proving that he did not do anything.

But if he apologized, things would get very different.

After all, why must he apologize without having made any mistakes?

“Thanks for your concern, but there is no need.” Shao Yunduan greeted them back and said gently.

Qiao Xuan did not like these two men, and said to Shao Yunduan, “Darling, we

should leave..”
