Qiao Jing was a good listener. He did not interrupt Qiao Yue while she was speaking, but neither did he make it seem she was talking to thin air.
By the time Qiao Yue finished, it was already evening. One of the family's butlers knocked on the door, informing them that dinner was ready. He invited them downstairs for dinner in the dining room.
The Old Master had returned earlier that day, so the whole family was present. When Qiao Yue and Qiao Jing made their way downstairs, they heard the head butler relating news of the Qiao brothers to the Old Master.
The Old Master had three sons. They were named Qiao Ren, Qiao Yi, and Qiao Li. The one who had caused a commotion in the ward was the Old Master's second son, Qiao Yi. One would expect sons of the Old Master to be wise and virtuous under his strict upbringing, yet, for all the good he tried to instill in them, they all turned wayward.
