The cannon fodder stepmother dressed as the villain Zai Zai

Chapter 38: I can survive for a while
Song Wentong took advantage of the victory and pursued him, killing him with one bite:
"Second Master, there is no need to say it. It must be the Third Madam who arranged the eyes and ears in our Marquis' Mansion, and then we learned about this secret. This matter must be investigated carefully to get to the bottom of it."

Sheng Yue looked at Jiang Yuwei with a serious expression:

"Third Madam, is this really the case? If you don't come up with an explanation for this matter, I'm afraid it won't end so easily today."

Hearing what Sheng Yue said, Jiang Yuwei's face changed slightly. She had nothing to say until now, so she could only nod and admit the matter.

After all, this incident happened because of her, and she didn't want to involve Xu Yaqin.

"Okay, Third Madam, just admit it." Sheng Yue showed no mercy and immediately called:

"Come here! Take the third lady down and keep her under guard. She is not allowed to leave the room without my order."

"As for the response from the Hou Mansion, I will naturally interrogate him personally later."

When Jiang Yuwei was taken away, she took a deep look at Xu Yaqin with a look of guilt on her face.

Seeing Jiang Yuwei being taken away, Xu Yaqin realized that Song Wentong was not an easy character to deal with. The case with solid evidence might be turned over by him.

And the current situation is not good for her.

The third wife, the most critical witness who could bring down Song Wentong, has also been taken away, leaving Xu Yaqin alone in the hall.

Too many things happened today. Sheng Yue was silent for a while, trying to clear the thoughts in his mind.

Then he looked at Xu Yaqin and asked:
"Madam, now it's time to talk about your case. If we can't produce evidence to prove that Butler Song did embezzle and sell off the property of the Hou family, then I don't think there is any need to say more about it."

Xu Yaqin looked calm:
"Second Master, there is no need to ask anymore. I really have no evidence to prove that Butler Song is corrupt. But what the Third Madam and I said here today are true. I, Xu Yaqin, have a clear conscience."

The two elders of the clan took advantage of the opportunity and said:

"You have a clear conscience, Xu Yaqin, and you are still acting now!"

They said to Sheng Yue:
"Second Master, I have the clearest view of this matter. It is obvious that these two women slandered Butler Song and wanted to take the opportunity to infiltrate the interior of our Marquis Mansion."

"But thanks to Butler Song's strong arguments and the Second Master's clear understanding of the matter, the matter was finally brought to light and Butler Song was cleared."

"The facts are very clear now. The third lady has arranged a mole in my house. The eldest lady has such bad conduct that she even cheated on the assessment. Just expel these two women from the house of the Marquis!"

Xu Yaqin was numb. The situation was obviously good, but she didn't expect it to turn into this.

Sheng Yue was originally dissatisfied with Xu Yaqin and wanted to drive her out of the house. Later, after some things happened with Xiao Zaizi, he only had a slight change in his view of her. Now that he had the opportunity to drive her out, he would definitely not let it go.

Xu Yaqin suddenly felt a little miserable, forgetting that she had transformed into such a vicious stepmother through the book, but it was about to be completed so soon.

Her only regret was that she missed that little kid Shengze and wanted to stay with him and play the role of stepmother to give the little kid more warmth and growth.

Maybe if you give this young master a little more love, he won't become like that in the future and become the villain in the original work.

But now, these thoughts have become unrealistic fantasies.

Xu Yaqin suddenly felt a little resigned to her fate: "You can do whatever you want to do with it, but I, Xu Yaqin, have always done things with a clear conscience. I only have one request..."

The two elders were afraid that things might change if things were delayed for too long, so they immediately objected:

"Well, Xu Yaqin, how dare you have the nerve to make demands after committing such deception."

Sheng Yue stretched out a hand and said, "Wait a minute, let her say what she has to say."

Xu Yaqin said: "Second Master can expel me from the Hou Mansion. I only have one request. Can you let me see the young master again? I left the Hou Mansion for no reason. The young master will definitely be anxious if he can't see me. I'll talk to him carefully." Let’s talk for a while to prevent him from causing mischief in the future, which is also my selfish intention.”

Hearing these words, Sheng Yue was a little shaken.

Song Wentong said hurriedly:
"No, Second Master. This witch clearly wants to use the young master to stay in the Marquis Mansion so that he can intercede on her behalf. They must not be allowed to meet. This witch should be expelled from the house now to avoid future troubles!"

"Shut up, I'm here, it's not your turn to speak yet!" Sheng Yue looked at Song Wentong with a bit of disgust.

"How do I do something, do I need you to interrupt here?"

Realizing that the second master's tone was wrong, Song Wentong immediately shut up obediently.However, the current situation is greatly in his favor. It seems that the two annoying guys, Xu Yaqin and Jiang Yuwei, can finally disappear completely.

When he thought of this, Song Wentong couldn't help but smile.

Sheng Yue was silent for a while, looking at Xu Yaqin's face, he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing his hesitation, the two clan elders next to him urged him:
"Second Master, what are you waiting for? Drive this woman out of the Marquis' Mansion quickly. Don't embarrass our Qingdu Marquis' Mansion."

"Come here!" The two elders were obviously a little anxious and shouted directly: "Drag this woman out!"

The two guards in the Hou Mansion immediately walked towards Xu Yaqin.

"Stop!" Sheng Yue suddenly spoke, surprising the two elders and Song Wentong.

"Second Master, why is this?"

Xu Yaqin couldn't understand. Wasn't Sheng Yue the one who hated her the most?It should be a dream for him to drive himself out of the Hou Mansion. How can he speak for himself now?Is it possible that I can survive for a while?
"That's enough! It's me who has the final say in this house now."

Sheng Yue scanned the audience and said slowly:
"This matter is of great importance. In my opinion, it is better to leave her in the Hou's Mansion first. We also have to ask the young master's opinion. After all, the ladies came to the Hou's Mansion to take good care of the young master. She is the only one who can do it right now. If you manage the young master obediently and send her away at this juncture, what will the young master do? Which of you has the ability to manage Shengze?"

"But..." the expressions of the two elders changed, and they wanted to retort. After thinking carefully, they couldn't think of any words, so they could only say dryly: "Second Master, this is absolutely impossible. No matter what, she is cheating. According to Rules cannot remain in our Qingdu Marquis Mansion..."

Sheng Yue spoke up: "Two elders, please be patient. When did I say that I wanted her to stay in the Hou Mansion?"

The elders looked at each other, slightly surprised and asked:
"What does the second master mean?"

Sheng Yue held his breath and concentrated, and slowly exhaled:

"This woman is only staying in the Hou Mansion temporarily. First, she will take the title of mistress and wife. During this period, some more people will be sent to follow her. After learning this method of coaxing the young master, she will I wonder what the two elders think of expelling this woman from the Hou Mansion?"
