Translations Of course, Fan Ruyin refused to admit fault and apologize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, she resumed crying, lamenting how her brother and sister-in-law were cruel and heartless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was evident they didn’t regard her as family and were purposefully tormenting herâ€¦ The situation descended into chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, everyone was exasperated, and the matter remained unresolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one was content.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First Old Master Fan and Second Old Master Fan felt too ashamed to compel their wives to apologize on behalf of their sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None of their actions made sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were at an impasse, but little did they know, news of the dispute had spread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The following day, thugs descended upon the Fan family’s rice shop, silk shop, restaurant, and several other establishments, disrupting business operations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shopkeeper, known for his temper, clashed with the intruders, further aggravating the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reported the incident to the authorities, but help arrived slowly from the yamen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time officials arrived, the troublemakers had dispersed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of apprehending them, the officials interrogated the shopkeeper with grave expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The majority of the Fan family’s shopkeepers and workers, filled with confidence and pride, possessed less-than-pleasant temperaments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Witnessing the authorities’ lack of action, they couldn’t help but express their frustration in a manner lacking decorum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, the officials erupted in anger, chastising them for being “too arrogant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arrogant and lawless!” It became evident that the Fan family was just as haughty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they were so superior, why not don their official attire and act as they pleased within the government office?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shopkeeper and his assistants were utterly bewildered by the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It dawned on them only then that the Prefect was no longer the Prefect, and the government office had undergone a transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, they offered profuse apologies, trying to rectify the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were scolded without cause and warned to conduct themselves as businessmen, to eschew arrogance and domineering behavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, being amiable was the key to profitability, wasn’t it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The officials’ tyrannical and unreasonable behavior before them hinted at how they might treat ordinary customers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it was a shop belonging to the prestigious Fan Clan, they were expected to adhere to established regulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anze Prefecture City was not theirs to dictate terms inâ€¦ These words were spoken publicly, and countless bystanders absorbed them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shop assistant felt dumbfounded and a tad fearful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t fathom why these officials were behaving so audaciously in the esteemed Fan family’s establishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why didn’t they show him any respect?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the shopkeeper grasped the gravity of the situation and grew uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that the main branch had somehow offended the former Prefect!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was ominousâ€¦ Bowing deeply, the shopkeeper issued apologies, eager to usher the officials away swiftly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He dared not meet the gaze of onlookers or engage in hushed conversations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entrusting the shop to his staff, the shopkeeper hastened to the Fan family residence to deliver his reportâ€¦ Still unaware of the events transpiring, the family needed to be informed promptly, regardless of the importance of the matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They needed a strategyâ€¦ Several other shopkeepers had the same notion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt somewhat awkward for everyone to convene at the main household.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they exchanged accounts of what had occurred, an air of unease settled over the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hearts of First Old Master Fan and Second Old Master Fan sank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was undoubtedly Lord Shao’s retaliatory strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam Shao had been mistreated and embarrassed, prompting Lord Shao to launch a swift counteroffensive against the Fan Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, it was too coincidental for those troublemakers to disrupt business at the Fan family’s shops today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dependent on the government for their livelihoods, those thugs wouldn’t dare disregard the casual, indifferent hints from a constableâ€¦\u003C\u002Fp>",642,"2026-06-03T12:01:14.208Z","2026-06-03T12:01:16.737Z",1,"novelbin.me","7c04a453d7b5b1277c386fd5d43e9299922bb61b991c5e4d58278599494cc186","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1860","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1858",2438,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fspringtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-cover.jpg"]
