Chapter 965

"When did you leave?" Mrs. Zheng asked angrily.

"The little one just asked. No one in the mansion knows when the Second Young Madam and the others left, but they must have left directly from the East Courtyard." The housekeeper replied carefully.

"Does the Duke's Mansion support you for free?" Mrs. Zheng said angrily, "So many people have left, and no one knows what happened."

Mrs. Xu, who had just come here to pay her respects and hadn't left yet, silently lowered her head upon hearing this.

Last night, she still brought Zheng Yi to Mrs. Tai's side. After returning home, Mother Yi briefly mentioned the events of the year to her.

So, she didn't sleep well last night.

Xiao Shu's attitude was obvious, and he would not let the Duke's mansion go so easily.

So, she thought about it over and over last night, thinking about the future of her and her daughter, the future of the Duke's Mansion.

From the looks of it, the Duke and the old lady planned to take advantage of Xiao Shu's early court to hold Song Mujin in their hands and make Xiao Shu compromise.

Unexpectedly, they left directly.

Seeing Mrs. Xu with her head down, Mrs. Zheng had nowhere to vent her anger, so she directed her anger, "You are in charge of the east courtyard, and you are also in charge of the central government in this mansion. You are in charge of the east courtyard." I don’t know how many people were arranged to watch over there, but now that it’s healed, so many people have left and no one knows.”

Mrs. Xu really felt aggrieved, that was what Madam Tai said, can she not follow through?And even if she did something wrong, wouldn't Xiao Shu and Song Mujin not be able to see it?
But at this time, she didn't dare to refute anything, so she just lowered her head and said, "It's because my daughter-in-law didn't think carefully."

"One or two are useless!" Mrs. Xiao reprimanded, and then said to the housekeeper, "Send someone to follow the road and see where they are. If possible, can you invite Mrs. Song back?" She shook her head and said, "Forget it, there's no need for anyone to chase after her." If Song Mujin didn't want to come to the mansion after she had chased her, wouldn't it be the Duke's mansion that caused trouble on the road and spread the word of shame? "Well, send someone to the gate of the palace and wait for the Duke to tell him about the East Court immediately."

"Yes, old lady." The butler replied and went to make arrangements.

Mrs. Zheng looked at Mrs. Xu and said. "You should already know the matter, so I won't say more. You go to the Hou Mansion and talk to Mrs. Song."

Mrs. Xu nodded and said, "Daughter-in-law will go there now." Although she has no feelings for the Duke, if something happens to the Duke's mansion, she will not be well, and more importantly, her daughter will definitely be implicated, and the matter will spread , With such a grandmother and father, what should a daughter do?

But Mrs. Xu has no idea, she has no relationship with Xiao Shu and his wife, will they give her this face?

But she has to go anyway, not only because of the old lady's order, but also because of the future of herself and her daughter.

"Talk to her carefully when you get to the Hou Mansion later." Madam Zheng reminded her.

"Mother, don't worry, my daughter-in-law will tell Xiao Jin well." Mrs. Xu nodded.

"Well, then you go." Although Mrs. Zheng doesn't usually like Xu's daughter-in-law, she also believes that she will definitely do her best in this matter, and Xu will do her best for Zheng Yi if nothing else.

Mrs. Xu nodded, bent her knees and went back to prepare to go out to the Hou Mansion.

……

Xiao Shu and Song Mujin came back with their people, and the people in the Hou Mansion were startled. After the shock, the butler Jiang Bo led people to welcome them in, and then ordered, "Quickly, let the kitchen be for Lord Hou and Madam. Prepare breakfast with Nanny Zhou and others."
