Chapter 852: The Crown Prince Consort Never Squabbles with Others

When other people were courteous, Qiao Mu would naturally be courteous too, and she even returned a semi-salute with a nod of her head. “Eldest Prince Consort.”
“Madam Shu.” Wei Ziqin took the lead to greet née Zhuang.
With a bit of contempt in her expression, Madam née Zhuang insincerely responded, “So it’s Madam Qiao.”
Shu Quan yanked the hem of her mother’s jacket, and the expression on her delicate and pretty face slightly sunk. To smooth things over, she explained to the Qiao Family trio with a smile, “We were just preparing to head to the stage at Clearwater Fine Park. Where is Crown Prince Consort headed to…”
Qiao Lin pursed her small mouth, and she deliberately declared loudly in a fit of childishness, “We’re waiting for Brother-in-Law to fetch us.”
“Lin’er.” After patting the back of her daughter’s hand and pulling her to her side, Wei Ziqin then nodded lightly at the displeased Madam née Zhuang. “My youngest daughter spoke carelessly, so would Madam Shu please pay no mind.”
However, Madam née Zhuang gave a harrumph before jeering with an artificial smile, “Then you can just wait here. Until His Highness has the time to come ‘fetch’ you!”
Madam Shu particularly emphasized the word “fetch,” as if mocking the trio from the Qiao Family for their wishful thinking.
It was obvious that it was impossible. At this moment, His Highness was still in the King’s Palace socializing with the royal court’s high-ranking civil and military officials, so how could he have the leisure to come fetch them from the Brilliant Sun Hall?
And they had the nerve to think of such a thing! Small households had no breeding to speak of!
This time, the contempt in the depths of Madam Shu’s eyes truly gushed out, glaringly obvious to the Qiao Family trio’s eyes.
Due to her young and aggressive mindset characteristic of a little girl, Qiao Lin was immediately enraged. “You really shouldn’t doubt me! My brother-in-law will be here shortly!”
“Lin’er.” Seeing that her daughter was getting into a temper, Wei Ziqin’s head also started swelling, and she hastily grasped her daughter’s small hand. “It’s fine, it’s fine.”
Qiao Lin just couldn’t stand other people belittling her mom. This whoever Madam Shu was just like an arrogant peacock, looking down her nose at other people!
“Mom.” On the other end, Shu Quan was incredibly embarrassed. She repeatedly tugged at her mother’s sleeve, yet Madam Shu flung her hand away in a fit of pique.
“Humph.” Madam née Zhuang swept Qiao Lin a displeased glance while assuming an air of superiority. “Madam Qiao, daughters should be educated from young. Look at our family’s Shu Hui. Even Her Majesty the Queen constantly praises her etiquette and bearing for all being in accordance with the standard. Looking at your second miss’s situation, if you want to find a better indoctrinating nanny, I have a good recommendation here. Otherwise, when she gets older in two more years, who knows if she’ll be able to find a husband.”
Qiao Lin’s small face was immediately flushed red in anger.
Wei Ziqin was also so infuriated that her body trembled all over.
Without saying anything further, Qiao Mu flew up and slapped Madam Shu’s face.
“Ah!” Madam Shu didn’t expect that the crown prince consort would suddenly bestow her with a slap in the face, and the sound immediately attracted many gazes.
Madam Shu felt that she had completely lost all her self-respect and pride!
Not only was she the madam of the great Royal College’s assistant chancellor, but she was also born into a family of scholars. Yet today, the Qiao Family trio had placed her in an extremely awkward situation.
Yet Qiao Mu didn’t stop her slapping. Wanting it to blow over with just a single slap? Not an option!
Qiao Mu didn’t even feel like wasting her breath on this Madam Shu, and she directly bestowed her with two more sound slaps. This caused Madam Shu to collapse to the ground, stammering with gasping yelps while terror suffused her gaze.
During the noon banquet, when the crown prince consort bickered with Wu Hongmo, it was only her manner that was a bit intolerably aggressive.
When she fought for real, other people simply didn’t need to think of interfering!
Look at how the crown prince consort was punching and kicking Madam Shu like a sandbag. Which of the madams and ladies passing by dared to stop her?
