Chapter 62 Collusion
"Steward Song, what are you doing here at this time?"

Liu Manwan's personal maid Mingyue saw Song Wentong coming uninvited and couldn't help but ask.

Liu Manwan's attitude was not as indifferent as Mingyue.

After all, the heated argument between Song Wentong and Xu Yaqin in front of Second Master Sheng had already spread throughout the Hou family, and Liu Manwan had heard about it.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Therefore, Liu Manwan was not disgusted with Song Wentong, but rather wanted to win over him, and said:
"Steward Song, do you have something to do with me?"

Song Wentong no longer concealed himself, and directly revealed his true face in Lushan. He lowered his head and smiled, saluted respectfully and said:

"Madam, it seems that you have something on your mind. I have a plan. Maybe I can help madam solve the problem and eliminate the anger in your heart."

"Oh, does Butler Song have any advice?"

The second wife, Liu Manwan, heard what Song Wen meant in the phone call, and it seemed that he had a way to help her deal with Xu Yaqin.

Upon hearing the news, the second lady's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately gave Mingyue, the personal maid, a look to signal her to retreat.

Mingyue received this signal, wisely exited the room, stood outside the door, and gently closed the door.

Liu Manwan looked up at Song Wentong at this time, with a glimmer of color in her eyes, and said:
"There is no one else here. If Butler Song has any plans, just tell him. As long as he can help me get rid of that girl Xu Yaqin."

Song Wentong was not sure how much the second lady hated Mrs. Xu, but after saying these words, Song Wentong already had the answer in his heart.

An indescribable smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Song Wentong said in a deep voice: "It's enough to have a second lady. Since our common opponent is Xu Yaqin. We have the same goal, so why not you and I join forces to drive her out of the Hou Mansion first and bring her down completely."

"Take down Xu Yaqin?"

Liu Manwan instantly became interested in what he said.

Originally, she just thought that Butler Song could think of some way to give Xu Yaqin some trouble, but she didn't expect that he would not stop doing it and wanted to expel Xu Yaqin from the Hou Mansion.

The second lady, Liu Manwan, looked puzzled and asked directly:

"Steward Song, don't say big words. It's not like you and I haven't watched her momentum in the Qingdu Marquis' Mansion. Now both the Marquis and the Young Master have extra trust in her. If they want to expel her from the Marquis' Mansion at this juncture, , I’m afraid that’s not possible?”

Song Wentong looked confident and sneered:
"Second Madam, since I dare to come to you today, I already have a countermeasure in mind. As long as Second Madam is willing to help me, I am sure that I can expel her from the Marquis' Mansion."

The second lady, Liu Manyan, suddenly became excited and asked hurriedly:

"Any good ideas? Butler Song will tell you!"

Song Wentong stopped being secretive and expressed his true feelings:
"Actually, it couldn't be easier to bring down Mrs. Xu. I wonder if the Second Madam has heard about the Marquis and the Young Master?"

Liu Manwan felt baffled. She didn’t know why Song Wentong mentioned such a thing, so she answered directly:

"I know. I heard that the Marquis and the young master had a bad temper and that the young master was punished to go to the ancestral hall to keep a vigil for his biological mother. The people in the Hou family had already spread the news. Why did Butler Song suddenly ask about this?"

Song Wentong paused and continued:
"I wonder if the Second Madam knows why the Marquis is so angry?"

Although Liu Manwan is not as smart as Xu Yaqin, she certainly knows that a discerning person can see this at a glance and replied:
"Isn't this obvious? Naturally, it's because the young master has a deep affection for the young master's biological mother. The young master's words touched the bottom line of the young master, so the young master was angry for a moment."

At this point, Liu Manwan was suddenly startled by her words. She seemed to understand something in her mind. She raised her eyes and looked at Song Wentong and asked:
"Is this what Butler Song meant?"

Song Wentong saw that the second lady was prompted, and he understood something in his heart. He nodded and replied:

"Exactly, the second lady guessed it right, because you and I both know that the young master's biological mother is the untouchable evil in the heart of the Marquis."

"If Xu Yaqin is allowed to take the initiative to bump into her, wouldn't it make the Marquis angry and expel her from the Marquis' mansion?" Liu Manwan was still a little confused and continued to ask:

"I understand the truth, but Housekeeper Song, Xu Yaqin is a smart person, and she will not be stupid enough to make mistakes in this kind of thing. Is this method really feasible?"

"Of course it's possible, Second Madam."

Song Wentong's eyes showed a fierce light, and he said with a sinister smile:

"I wonder if the second lady knows that the portrait of the young master's biological mother hangs in the ancestral hall?"

Liu Manwan nodded and replied:

"I know, what does this have to do with our plan?"

Song Wentong showed his trump card and said:
"This is the only portrait of the young master's biological mother left in the Qingdu Marquis Mansion. If the portrait is damaged by Xu Yaqin..."

"Madam, what do you think the Marquis will do?"

Hearing this, Liu Manwan suddenly realized, smiled and said excitedly:

"The Marquis will definitely expel her from the Marquis' mansion!"

"Yes, that's right, we can..."

Song Wentong immediately came closer, leaned into Liu Manwan's ear, and spoke out his plans.

Liu Manwan listened quietly, nodded from time to time, looked up at Song Wentong, and praised him greatly:
"Okay! What a plan!"

"Butler Song is really smart. Once this happens, she, Xu Yaqin, won't be able to escape even if she jumps into the Yellow River."

Song Wentong waved his hand and said:
"Madam, you are so impressed. It's just that this time I need you to take action and put in more effort."

The second lady, Liu Manwan, instantly became alert, looked at him and asked:
"It's just that this kind of plan can be easily accomplished based on your identity and status in the Hou Mansion, Butler Song. Why do you have to let me do it?"

Although Liu Manwan wanted to bring down Xu Yaqin, she was not stupid enough to do anything. Once such a thing was found out, she would be the one expelled from the Hou Mansion.

If there weren't huge risks in the matter, Song Wentong could have done it alone without having to cooperate with him.

Liu Manwan was very confused about this and didn't understand what Song Wentong was thinking.

Song Wentong sighed and smiled helplessly:

"Second Madam, it's not like you don't know. Now everyone in the Hou family knows that my relationship with Madam Xu is not good."

"If I were to frame him, I'm afraid others wouldn't believe it."

"If you, the Second Madam, come forward...then the persuasiveness will naturally be greater. Do you think this is the truth?"

Liu Manwan thought about it carefully and realized that this was true.

Seeing that there was something fishy about the matter, Song Wentong continued to persuade her:
"And as long as we handle this matter properly, no one will doubt you, Second Madam."

"Once the matter is accomplished, Xu Yaqin will have no choice but to be expelled from the Hou's Mansion. From now on, both the second lady and I can live peacefully in this Hou's Mansion."

"As for the Marquis, I will also say a few kind words for you, Second Madam. This is a mutually beneficial and win-win good thing. Madam, what do you think?"

Liu Manwan was originally undecided and still hesitating, but she heard Song Wentong's words.She couldn't help but yearn for her better life after Xu Yaqin was expelled from the Hou Mansion.

Liu Manwan thought for a while, raised her head and said:
"Okay! Butler Song, I believe you on this matter."
