Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1293: Chapter 1092: Scolding_1 Chapter 1293: Chapter 1092: Scolding_1 Preserved duck eggs, if eaten in excess, could potentially lead to lead poisoning, but Qiao Xiaomai had always controlled the amount, never allowing Yang Hao to overeat.

Besides, it had only been a few days since Yang Hao came to the manor, even if he ate them daily, he wouldn’t be poisoned.

Now, Feng Huihui suddenly burst into tears, and her words were even laden with insinuations. With Yang Hao sitting here perfectly fine, how could it be that he wouldn’t survive?

She hadn’t done anything wrong, she just gave Yang Hao some preserved duck eggs, which she and Tong Sanlang also ate without any issues.

“Your Highness the Crown Princess, don’t worry, a little preserved duck egg won’t cause harm. Sanlang and I ate it as well, we wouldn’t harm ourselves, would we?” Qiao Xiaomai explained in the gentlest tone, her voice soft and delicate.

“But you’ve been too careless, could anything served to the Crown Prince be poisonous? Why didn’t you mention it earlier? With such a serious matter, do you think you can make decisions on your own?” As Qiao Xiaomai’s voice fell, Feng Huihui slightly stopped crying and turned to confront Qiao Xiaomai.

Qiao Xiaomai, “…I acknowledge my mistake.”

She lowered her eyes, offering a sincere apology.

She was wrong, she truly realized her mistake.

It was her laziness at fault; she should have asked Yang Hao first.

She admitted her mistake, but clearly, this matter wouldn’t easily be put to rest.

Feng Huihui’s scolding voice rose even higher, “You knew full well that the shadow of the hellflower poisoning hadn’t passed, yet you brought something poisonous to the table. What exactly are your intentions?”

“Moreover, you choose to speak about the poison neither sooner nor later, but at this time. Do you see those watermelon buyers outside as holding higher status than His Highness the Crown Prince? You worry about them getting poisoned but not about the Crown Prince getting poisoned, does the Crown Prince mean less to you than a stranger?”

Qiao Xiaomai “…”

She was wronged.

“Your Highness the Crown Princess, I am certain that eating a small amount of these preserved duck eggs won’t be a problem, so I wasn’t worried about His Highness the Crown Prince being poisoned. Outsiders wouldn’t be aware of this, which is why I spoke up to prevent any issues,” Qiao Xiaomai responded.

“It was my lack of consideration before, I did something wrong, but please believe me, His Highness truly is fine. I value his safety immensely; I regard his well-being as more important than my very life. Please trust me.”

Qiao Xiaomai’s voice was gentler than before, her attitude more heartfelt.

She was sincere, but Feng Huihui’s anger hadn’t subsided one bit, “I don’t care about what you say, I watch what you do, you have made a mistake, you have…”

“Enough!” Yang Hao suddenly spoke up, interrupting Feng Huihui’s series of criticisms. His expression darkened, and he said sternly, “Miss Qiao definitely bears no ill will towards me; do not make a mountain out of a molehill.”

“Even if she were at fault, since she has already admitted her error, why would you go so far?”

“She is not a village woman from the countryside, she is a Baroness, she is Zhengzheng’s teacher, she is the first to discover the hellflower, she toils over our meals every day. Even if there is no merit, there is hard work, and in front of everyone, must you scold her in such a manner?”

Yang Hao was usually a gentle person, whether with friends or with servants, and it was rare for him to lose his temper.

But at this moment, he truly became angry, which is why his words were so weighty.

The saying goes, ‘Employ without doubt.’ Since he employed Qiao Xiaomai, he should trust her.

And weren’t the things that Qiao Xiaomai had done in the past for the benefit of the Yang Family and Daqi enough to outweigh this error?

Moreover, this could not be considered a mistake.

The food that both Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang ate was certainly safe.

Why then scold her so?
