Chapter 506: For His Elder Brother

When Ms. Yan visited them again, Qiao Xuan greeted her happily as if nothing had happened. That made Ms. Yan feel less worried.
She knew that Qiao Xuan had lived up to her promise.
Qiao Xuan started to sort out one mu in the garden for cultivating tea tree buds.
When the land was sorted well, the tea seeds could be buried. With the help of her superpower, she could make the transplantation happen by early April.
At that time, the tea trees would grow to a certain height.
They would be trimmed in autumn, and harvested for the next year.
She could also put some superpower into the tea tree buds and the creeping figs so they could grow faster and better. No one had any prior knowledge about it, so even if it grew fast, people might assume that it should be like this.
Then, she would work on mushrooms, wooden ears and snow fungus.
This batch of white fungus grew quite a lot. The snow-white fungus once bloomed like clouds and flowers. They were thick and beautiful. They were carefully picked one by one and spread out in a dustpan to dry.
Qiao Xuan told Shao Yunduan that when the mushrooms and snow fungus were sundried, they would visit the province to buy some laborers as well as lotus root, water chestnuts and so on to plant in the pond.
Shao Yunduan nodded in agreement.
Hearing about Widow Sun and Land Officer Ding’s conspiracy, Shao Yunduan went out every night. He even asked Qiao Xuan to sleep first instead of waiting for him to return.
Qiao Xuan had no idea what was going on, but by the third night, Qiao Xuan understood the situation.
He was watching over at Widow Sun’s door.
He was doing everything he could for his Elder Brother.
Qiao Xuan was surprised, but found his behavior reasonable too.
Catching them on the spot was the only method.
If his plan was to catch them red-handed, the best method was to be the most patient hunter who guarded their prey until they came to the trap.
He did not want her to know about his plan, but Qiao Xuan did not ask him either. They both knew what was happening.
Shao Yunduan was not in a hurry. He guarded the place for seven days in a row until he finally, on the eighth night, saw Land Officer Ding sneaking into Widow Sun’s yard.
Shao Yunduan waited and did not leave until half an hour later.
Suddenly, fire broke out in Widow Sun’s home that night, and almost half of the village went to help put out the fire.
Land Officer Ding got so anxious that he wanted to leave directly, but the windows and doors were all shut from outside, and he could not leave at all.
So, everyone who came to help put out the fire got shocked seeing Land Officer Ding sneaking out of Widow Sun’s room.
What was going on?
They understood immediately that Land Officer Ding was not in Window Sun’s room for ‘a friendly chat’.
They were doing something indecent.
Land Officer Ding realized that he had been set up and became furious. He wished that he could disappear from there out of shame, when everyone was teasing him.
He knew that he was done this time.
Luckily, his wife and two sons were not here to put out the fire, otherwise he would be so humiliated!
Widow Sun was shocked too. She flushed deeply but soon, she understood what she should do.
She took hold of Land Officer Ding suddenly and glanced at the crowd. “I am remarrying Brother Ding as his concubine.. We are not doing anything wrong!”
