Bab 765: Mid-Autumn Festival

Officer Qiao's warm reception and his enthusiastic greeting to Shao Yunduan as "the best son-in-law" was a noticeable change in attitude. Qiao Xuan observed that even Madame Qiao, despite her feigned aloofness, was secretly pleased to receive them, along with the servants. Even Concubine Du and Qiao Kou, who had never experienced such treatment before, were included in the warm welcome.

Qiao Wei couldn't help but size up Qiao Xuan once again. She was adorned in a vibrant water-red satin embroidered with delicate primroses and a butterfly pattern, paired with a light beige thread-stitched long skirt. The ensemble beautifully accentuated her slim and graceful figure. Her ebony bun was immaculately styled, and the elegant hairpin adorned with pearls, pomegranate, and magnolia flowers added a touch of luxury and sophistication.

Qiao Xuan's elegance emanated not from excessive ornamentation but from her refined demeanor, exuding a sense of nobility and propriety.
