Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan arranged a substantial gift and sent the nanny and the two girls to visit Qiao Xuan, intending to offer an apology.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The explanation crafted was, naturally, centered around the nanny and the two maidservants failing to adequately care for their young master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maids, given to gossip, uttered a few inappropriate words about their master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan’s son, feeling neglected during her guests’ entertainment, became displeased, and that led to the regrettable incident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I sincerely apologize, Madam Shao!” Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan expressed remorse and handed over the nanny and the two maids to Qiao Xuan, instructing her to deal with them as she saw fit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xuan found herself disgusted once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Handing them over to her for punishment?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They are your servants, Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have no authority over them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You may administer the punishment yourself.” Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan didn’t want to complicate matters for Qiao Xuan, so she smiled and replied, “I offer a genuine apology, Madam Shao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The servants have indeed erred, and they should face consequences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rest assured, Madam Shao.” Qiao Xuan inquired, “What do you propose, Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan?” Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan felt the urge to curse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As you wish, Madam Shao!” Qiao Xuan suggested, “If that’s the case, let’s proceed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take the young master outside and administer a public flogging, so everyone can witness the consequences of negligence!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lixia, Liqiu, inform our staff to pay close attention!” While observing the punishment was one aspect, it was crucial to convey that Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan had ordered the flogging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lixia agreed and hurriedly left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The nanny and the two girls continued pleading for mercy, but they were swiftly escorted away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan felt irritated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xuan was the one who mentioned flogging, so why was she now saying it was Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan’s idea?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When did she say such a thing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For such a trivial matter, Madam Shao had taken it too far!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan had anticipated that Qiao Xuan might teach the nanny and the two girls a lesson, but she never expected her to resort to flogging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, Qiao Xuan had made her stance unequivocal, leaving no room for changes even if she desired to backtrack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unhappy with the situation, Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan aimed to reciprocate and said, “I should inform Madam Shao of one thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia’er mentioned overhearing two maids gossiping in the garden yesterday, and it angered him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maids were hidden by the flower shade, and he couldn’t identify them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Curiously, the nanny and the maids were absent at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I suspect they might not be our maids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I wonder which lady they might be attending the banquet with!” “Of course, it’s just a speculation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m merely mentioning it casually, Madam Shao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can simply disregard it.” Seeing Qiao Xuan’s surprised expression, Mrs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guan felt satisfied and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once she departed, Lixia couldn’t contain herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your words are preposterous!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ve only been in Anze Province for a short time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could something like this happen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You must be evading responsibility and spreading baseless accusations to create trouble for our madam!” With no known adversaries, who would commit such a malicious act?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Xuan blinked and chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Actually, I believe she’s not lying.” Lixia was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“B-but how can there be such a person…” Qiao Xuan smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not everyone would engage in such actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, it’s merely a fleeting thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, many harbor resentment when Lord is present, seizing every opportunity to stir up trouble.” “From now on, pay attention to everything!” “Understood, Madam!”\u003C\u002Fp>",592,"2026-06-03T12:01:10.139Z","2026-06-03T12:01:10.533Z",1,"novelbin.me","a2d5f827d620b34836eb77a89d3aebb9f29ae3673bb44d0cb649a30159ab86b5","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1677","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1675",2438,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fspringtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-cover.jpg"]
