Qiao Wei shot a triumphant glance at Qiao Xuan, her expression tinged with disdain.

In response, Qiao Xuan instructed Liqiu to provide Ms. Mao with the two hundred taels of silver and cheerfully remarked, "Sister-in-law, you've come early today. Please take the money. As we agreed yesterday, you can now leave with the silver."

Qiao Wei was incensed. "Qiao Xuan, what's the meaning of this?"

Qiao Xuan gave Ms. Mao a pointed look. "You may depart now."

Although Ms. Mao was baffled by the situation, she could sense the tension between these two individuals. Nonetheless, she cared little about their feud; her primary focus was on the money she now possessed.
