Chapter 1802: On Purpose Chapter 1802: On Purpose Editor: Henyee Translations Fan Ruyin and her mother harbored deep dissatisfaction.

Upon learning that, aside from the Shao Family and the Yuezheng Family, no one else possessed these fruits, they reluctantly resigned themselves to the situation.

Attempting to threaten Lord Shao was futile; the Yuezheng Family’s status transcended mere familial ties within Anze Province.

Despite the Fan Family’s influence, they were powerless to alter the situation.

Moreover, the Yuezheng Family’s comparable power level only exacerbated the Fan Family’s frustration.

To add insult to injury, before they could extend their congratulations at the state office, they were denied the opportunity to taste the prized fruits.

Their indignation heightened when they learned that Madam Shao had generously sent two large fruit baskets to the Mei Family and the Huo Family.

Laden with mangoes, kiwis, bananas, dragon fruits, mangosteens, and the most precious strawberries, the baskets were overflowing.

Rather than framing it as a reciprocal gift, Madam Shao described it as a special treat for them to enjoy.

The conspicuous omission of the Fan Clan stung like a slap to the face.

Old Lady Fan seethed with fury!

Fan Ruyin accused Qiao Xuan of arrogance and disrespect towards the Fan Family.

Upon hearing of this, Qiao Xuan forthrightly admitted that she lacked sufficient fruits but pledged to share with the Fan Family if more were available.

However, priority would be given to guests and the three congratulatory families.

Any surplus fruits would then be allocated to those who had not received them during the congratulations.

The implication was clear: fairness would be upheld, but the Fan family, as newcomers, would not be prioritized.

This rationale only fueled Old Lady Fan and her daughter’s ire even further.

“aEUR| It’s evident that Lord Shao abused his power for personal gain, publicly humiliating and bullying our Fan family first.

When we stood up in protest, they twisted the narrative to make it seem like we were the instigators!

As expected, they’ll let them do as they please!

Mother, our family can’t afford to retreat or admit defeat this time.

Otherwise, we’ll lose our standing in Anze Province!” Fan Ruyin seethed with fury.

A person of great dignity, she had presumed that her respected and flattered status in Anze Province would guarantee different treatment from Madam Shao.

Unexpectedly, Madam Shao did not treat her differently.

She had harbored resentment for some time and was biding her time.

What Fan Ruyin failed to realize was her own arrogance and obstinacy.

Old Lady Fan’s protective nature and the Fan family’s status as one of the three prominent families in Anze Province shielded her from disobedience or flattery from smaller clans.

The Mei Family and the Huo Family were well aware of her personality and typically avoided confrontation.

Furthermore, she hesitated to push too far with them, fearing repercussions.

Unbeknownst to Fan Ruyin, many women tolerated and flattered her outwardly while secretly plotting her downfall.

“Just wait and see.

One day, someone will teach her a lesson!” And now, that day seemed to have arrived, with countless individuals silently applauding behind her back.

Old Lady Fan remained resolute on the matter of taxes.

Three million kilograms of dry grains equated to a considerable sum, given the current market prices.

No family would willingly part with such a significant amount of wealth without just cause.
