Songshi, driven by his understanding of the situation, became deeply invested in gathering information.
Having witnessed the animosity between his own masters and Madame Qiao, along with the Qiao Family, he silently defended Qiao Xuan. He believed it was worthwhile to purchase snacks and melon seeds to share with everyone, allowing them to enjoy the spectacle unfolding at the Qiao Family's expense.
The news didn't create much of a stir in the upper-class society of the capital. It circulated, but people treated it as a joke, sharing a laugh after dinner.
Such incidents were rare but not unheard of in the capital, where gossip thrived, including many other bizarre tales.
Moreover, the Qiao Family no longer held a prominent position among the influential and affluent families of the capital, so they didn't garner much attention.
Additionally, Qiao Wei's fiancé's family was also not of notable status, further diminishing the significance of the event.
