These two dishes could not be eaten anywhere outside their family.
First Madame introduced the specialities to the two ladies, and Qiao Xuan and Taotao, after eating such delicious food, praised the dishes generously.
It was always nice to see that the guests liked what the host had prepared for them, especially for First Madame, who had been taking care of her husband all this time and never got a chance to relax. She had not treated people over a meal in a long time.
That was also the first banquet she arranged for people, which was significant for her too.
Seeing that Qiao Xuan and the family loved what she had arranged, she felt really happy.

But Qiao Xuan could not stay overnight.
She smiled. “I should not turn down your invitation, but we have been away from home for too many days, and it is time for us to go back. We are building a new house and we can’t be outside for too long. Also, Uncle is still recovering, and needs to be taken care of. We can’t keep you busy at the moment!”
“We will come to visit you on our next trip!”
First Madame smiled. “It is a deal then. You definitely have to come to visit me often. When spring comes, just remember to come and see the flowers. There are many beautiful sites in the province which I have not visited for many years. We can go there together next time!”
Qiao Xuan felt warm inside her heart, so she nodded and said, “Okay, I will definitely be here!”
The Old Master still needed to rest, so after lunch, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, as well as their family, left.
First Madame told Yuezheng Xiao numerous times that he should treat them well and should give them the wagon to go home.
Yuezheng Xiao nodded in agreement.
The following day, Xie Jingrong treated them to a meal. At the banquet, he was surprised to hear about the Old Master’s recovery and congratulated Yuezheng Xiao sincerely.
Later, Shao Yunduan went shopping with Qiao Xuan, Qi and Taotao for a day and bought some stuff. They decided to go home the next day.
Yuezheng Xiao had two wagons prepared for them, one for them to ride, and the other for the products and presents which the Yuezheng Family gave to them.
These included the twigs and some small tree buds which they had found.
Yuezheng Xiao said that when the new house was built and the spring came, he was going to visit them and bring the plants to them personally.
He also said that the brocade boxes were presents given by his mother to Qiao
Xuan.

They set about before dawn so when they arrived at the county, it was still quite early.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan booked two rooms at the hotel, telling Qu Shan to stay there for one night as well.
There was no good place for him to stay at their current home.
They had just booked the hotel and were about to get onto the wagon, and they heard a sound of “hey” behind their backs. Startled, Qiao Xuan knew that it was Qiao Kou who was there.
She and Shao Yunduan exchanged a look. They waved and blinked at Qu Shan and the coachman in the wagon, thinking that they were lucky that they had not yet gotten into the wagon.
Good!
If Qiao Kou and Qiao Wei saw them going into the wagon, they would have had difficulty in explaining what was going on.
Qiao Xuan turned around and saw Qiao Kou lifting the drapery, smiling at her and Shao Yunduan.
Next to her was Qiao Wei..
