Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home
Chapter 1779

Chapter 1779: It Worked Chapter 1779: It Worked Editor: Henyee Translations Zhao Shu shot Third Uncle a frigid glare, his voice dripping with disdain.

“You’re overestimating yourself.

I’ve extended courtesy, but you refuse it.

I won’t bother anymore.

Who do you think you are?

Your attempts to repulse me are futile.

You’re unworthy!” With that, the carriage departed.

Third Uncle and his family were seething with rage, their legs trembling, while Shao Xiaozhi’s eyes bulged in disbelief.

HowaEUR| How could this happen?

Young Master ZhaoaEUR| How could he be so formidable?

How could he regard me with such contempt?

Shao Xiaozhi couldn’t quite articulate it, but under Zhao Shu’s gaze, she felt an inexplicable sense of inadequacy.

It was as if she didn’t deserve to stand before him, as if she were an unwelcome presence.

Forget discussing marriage or becoming a concubine; at that moment, she couldn’t even fathom the idea of thinking about him.

Shao Xiaozhi sobbed uncontrollably, her hands covering her face in anguish.

Ms.

Ma, fuming with indignation, forcefully escorted Shao Xiaozhi and Third Uncle away from the scene.

Shao Liulang seethed with rage upon learning of the incident.

What a disgraceaEUR| “Look after Xiaozhi.

Don’t let her leave the house again!” he commanded.

Ms.

Ma and Third Uncle remained silent, the weight of the humiliation heavy upon them.

They exchanged defeated glances, realizing the gravity of the situation.

Zhao Shu’s intimidating gaze and haughty demeanor had left them truly shaken.

It was in that moment that they comprehended: Young Master Zhao belonged to a different sphere altogetheraEUR| Recalling how they had presumed a level playing field with him, they couldn’t help but feel a twinge of fear creeping in.

This, this was the conduct befitting a young master from a wealthy lineage!

Where did they find the audacity to treat him with such disrespect beforeaEUR| Shao Xiaozhi was equally shaken.

It was only now that she realized the truth in his words.

She retreated to her room, consumed by bitter tears.

Amidst her sorrow, resentment crept in.

Why couldn’t her brother have attained a higher position, like an intermediate recommended man or a Primus scholar?

If it had been him instead of Shao Yunduan, would everything have unfolded differently?

Would she not have felt so unworthy in front of Young Master Zhao?

It was all her brother’s fault for being ineffectualaEUR| Taotao hadn’t anticipated Zhao Shu’s intensity this time.

Yet, in the blink of an eye, Zhao Shu cast a nervous glance her way, his smile cautious.

“TaotaoaEUR| I hope I didn’t scare you.

I’m sorry.

IaEUR| I just couldn’t contain myself.

I won’t treat you like that, I promise!

I’ll heed your words.” Taotao couldn’t help but chuckle, the tension dissipating instantly.

“No need to apologize.

It’s a good thing if you can put them in their place.

If Xiaozhi keeps causing trouble, who knows what might happen.” Continuing like this would only bring disgrace upon their family.

They couldn’t afford to let it slide, lest they become a laughingstock.

Zhao Shu breathed a sigh of relief, his smile brightening.

“That’s reassuring.” Observing his genuine smile and sincere gaze, Taotao sighed inwardly.

Perhaps this was the lot of everyoneaEUR” as long as he treated her well, it sufficed.

Regardless of his interactions with others, it wasn’t her concernaEUR| Zhao Shu’s firmness proved effective.

The opposition immediately wilted, surrendering like a quail.

In mid-June, Zhao Shufang and Taotao bid farewell, hastening back to Jiangnan to oversee their business affairs.

They also made a brief visit to the capital.
