Shao Yunduan sneered back. “That family is despicable, and I’m not defending them. They deserve the consequences! Cousin, watch your words. What have you learned from those books? Becoming an officer doesn’t mean breaking the law. Are you trying to turn Officer Qiao into one?”

Shao Liulang erupted in anger. “Don’t act so righteous! Governmental offices are always like this! Even you might not behave well if you become an officer in the future.’

“Don’t worry about that. I won’t engage in anything against the law.”

Shao Liulang sneered in frustration and stormed off.

Ms. Ma hurriedly followed. “Liulang, why are you leaving?”

Shao Liulang gritted his teeth. “Shao Yunduan is heartless! No matter what we say, he won’t help us. He’s a hypocrite! I doubt he’ll remain so innocent and fair when he becomes an officer in the future. He’s just looking for an excuse to push us away.”

Ms. Ma suggested, “Then what should we do? What if we propose the marriage ourselves? Once it’s settled, we’ll be considered family, and County Magistrate Qiao will have to assist us!”

Ms. Ma’s suggestion sparked an idea in Shao Liulangs mind. He exclaimed, “Since the first section of the family won’t help us, we can go and find County Magistrate Qiao ourselves! ”

He could simply claim that Shao Yunduan had sent him, and the problem would be resolved.

Shao Liulang felt a rush of happiness. “l have a plan. Let’s go home first.”

They decided to have breakfast and contemplate their approach before heading to the county city.

However, before they could even leave their house, Ding Qiuyue rushed in, looking disheveled.

Concubine Ding appeared to be in a different state this time. She had no carriage, nor did she have any maids attending to her. Her clothes appeared worn-out as well.

Arriving home during breakfast time, Concubine Ding caught the attention of many onlookers.

“Isn’t that Qiuyue? Which Qiuyue? The concubine from the Ding Family!’ “Oh yeah, what is she doing here so early in the morning?”

“But haven’t you noticed that? She is not wearing what she was wearing last time!”

“No wonder people say that the Zhao Family is falling. The story is true!” “So what is she doing here this time? The Zhao Family sent her?”

Ding Qiuyue sensed eyes scrutinizing her, filled with judgment and hostility, which made her feel deeply embarrassed.

She hurriedly made her way home, avoiding any interaction or response to those around her.

The Zhao Family members were all filled with anxiety. What would become of them once the Zhao Family collapsed?

Qiuyue was terrified as well. Being a concubine put her in a position similar to that of a servant.

But then, the Young Master presented her with a release letter, allowing her to leave the Zhao Family. Many other servants received the same directive.

She was taken aback.

She hadn’t expected to receive such a letter. Despite her initial reluctance, she had grown accustomed to her role as a concubine.

She was at a loss as to how she should carry on with her life after leaving the Zhao Family.

She knew she wasn’t cherished in her own household, and returning home in such a hurried manner would not be well-received by her parents, brother, and sister-in-law. They would likely expect her to contribute to the household chores and earn her own keep.

But would they be willing to accept her back?

Moreover, she had grown accustomed to a life without having to work. The idea of engaging in manual labor seemed daunting to her.. Would she even be capable of doing any physical work at all?
